TANGO

Hi everyone

I have just bought an HP Tango, primarily to print photos from my phone (free ink for phone picture prints!) but I also want to print some larger photos form my computer.

The specs on the printer say the max print size is 8.5 inches by 14 inches (roughly 21cm x 35cm) which is larger than a4. 
Where can I find paper which is this size to print on? I can only find a4 or a3 glossy paper - a4 is smaller and a3 is too large? Or will the printer accept a3 paper but only print an image with the max dimensions?

 

I actually need to print a picture which is 30cm x 20cm (so borderless A4 will be acceptable) but the specs say max borderless printing is only 5x7 inches.

 

I am confused - what is the actual max print size and how do I take advantage of this? Can the printer actually print a4 borderless?

 

thanks in advance for your help and sorry if there is not enough info

Greetings!
 
Welcome to the HP Support Community. This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips to your technical queries. I have reviewed your post and I understand you are trying to find paper size.

 

Don't worry, I'm here to help. 

 

8.5 x 14 is the Legal paper size.

 

Borderless printing is supported but only up to 5 x 7 in. You would not be able to print borderless on Legal paper size. 

 

You may also refer to the Product Specifications for the HP Tango


Hope this helps!

 

Let me know how that goes.

Hi

thanks for your help on this - I understand now. Can you please also confirm for me the maximum print size on legal paper and what the minimum margins will be on each side?

Many thanks

Thanks for getting back to us. 

 

8.5 x 14 is the maximum paper size. A bottom margin of at least 0.5" or 12.7 mm is required to properly feed the paper.

 

You can set the margins by creating a custom paper size - HP Printers - Creating Custom Paper Sizes

 

Keep me posted.
