I just bought this printer a month ago and I'm trying to print photos from an SD card onto Kodak photo paper size 8.5 by 11

in. I've changed the settings to reflect that I have photo paper in the main tray. But it still wants to print on the 6x4 in photo paper in the photo tray. So how do I get this printer to print on larger photo paper?

Thanks, Banhien.

 

Lindy, you can find 8.5x11 prints in the Prints menu in HP Photo Creations.

 

After selecting the project, click the Print My Own button, then click the Add Photos button. Finally, click Browse This Computer and browse to your SD card to select your photos.

 

Tip: You can select multiple photos by dragging over their icons or holding down your Control key and clicking the photos you want to import.

Please download and install the following software on your computer

 

    http://www.hp.com/global/au/en/consumer/digital_photography/free/software/photo-creations.html

 

Then use it to print photos, it has some pre-set sizes of papers and knows how to print.

Thank you so much for showing me how to print on 8.5x11 in photo paper. If I ever have a problem again I will deffinately ask here first.

Thank you for all your help. That print app was all I needed. It would have been nice if the instructions for my printer would include these things. I guess that's why we have forums.
