Scratching on glossy photo paper

Photosmart 8750 prints the photographs on cards, beautifully. When you print the message on the inside, it produces half a dozen straight scored lines on the glossy side. HP says this is caused by XP SP3 & to remove it & go back to SP2 but my son has the same printer & SP3, which doesn't cause the scratches. What to do?

Unfortunately, you may have to revert back to SP2. the thing with sp3 is that it can act and work completely different from computer to computer depending on what software you have installed on it and what build of XP you have (ie home/pro) The only other alternative is to uninstall software, reboot and see if the problem persists. this way you may be able to find the program interfering with the performance of your printer.

I am unable to print photographs on my D7260 HP Photosmart Printer bacause the blank photo papers are not being drawn into the machine

Have you loaded them face down? I have a 7360 and they are pretty fussy about what they will take and what they won't and how. The paper must be put in the upper drawer (if it is 6x4 paper), with the glossy side down and the drawer must be pushed right in.

I have an HP 6180 that works fine except the colors are WAY off -- everything is muted and dull and the blacks are very weak. I've tried everything in the print dialogue box -- switching to application...

Bugger! HP wants your printer to work, so you buy more ink! Mine works beautiful

HP PSC 1350 Photo Printing (Glossy Paper) Pront Quality issue

keep checking the HP site for an updated Driver for your printer, but why not use an online photo printing service like Walgreens or Walmart, You can't possibly print photos at home cheaper than they can, and this way you get actual photographs back.

Card making

This machine will only print certain sizes as borderless. A5 is not one of them. You can use the following media with this feature: Matte Paper - Heavyweight: A4, Letter Premium Glossy Photo Paper:A4, Letter, 5 x 7", 10 x 15 cm/4 x 6", 8 x 10" Photo Paper:A4 Premium Semigloss Photo Paper:A4, Letter, 10 x 15 cm/4 x 6" Glossy Photo Paper:Letter, 10 x 15 cm/4 x 6" As you can see A5 is not in the list, therefor you will not be able to print A5 borderless via the normal means.
