Hi @vnsk,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community

 

I understand you are facing a paper size mismatch issue with your HP DeskJet 2755 All-In-One Printer. Not to worry I will help you to get a resolution to resolve the issue.

 

To assist better:

  • Does the copy work fine?
  • What is the paper size which you are trying to print on?
  • What's the application you are trying to print from? 
  • Have you tried printing from a different application or device? 

While you respond to that, Let's perform a power drain: 

  • With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
  • Remove USB cable, if present.
  • Wait for 2-3 minutes, press and hold the power button on your printer for about 30 seconds to remove any additional charge.
  • Now plug back the power cable straight to a wall outlet without any surge protector or an extension cord (This is important) and then plug back the power cord to the printer.
  • Turn on the printer and wait till warm-up period finishes and the printer is idle

If the issue persists, then please follow the steps mentioned on this document: Troubleshoot a 'Paper Mismatch' message (Mac)

 

Also, Update software on Mac.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

Hi @Anand

 

Thank you for your reply. Here are my printer details and answers to your questions.

  1. copy is working partially  means when I put Us Letter size paper it reduced the size and printed in portion of page.
  2. I am trying US Letter which I use always. i am trying just a regular word document and/or several other normal US letter size PDFs/images etc.
  3. I am using HP Smart since beginning
  4. I tried using air print thru my mobile but it did not print US Letter size it reduced image and printed very small.

I tried steps in this Troubleshoot a 'Paper Mismatch' message (Mac) 

I installed HP Easy Start and followed steps. it failed with  message below "Cannot obtain software information. Check your network connection, and then try again."

I checked for firmware update and it is up to date.

I removed and reinstalled my hp smart app as well it didn't work.

 

Kindly help. Thanks in advance.
