SOURCE: my hp laserjet 4 plus printer cannot print excel files

wherer are you printing this, A4 is european, north america would use letter, etc..
if you go to control panel, open the printers and faxes folder, right click the printer in question, a window will pop up, click on properties.. a new window should open. click on "Printing Defaults" or "Printing Preferences" then click on "Advanced" ( I believe it should be to the lower left) that will open another window, in paper size make it Letter if your in N America, A4 for Euro.. this will set the deafult print..
Click ok, then print a test page from the general tab..

The reason you getting this LOAD LETTER message. your excel page setup is set to print to letter, your machine is set to print top A4

If you open Excel then go to Print then a window should pop up where you select the printer you want to use, click on Properties, then Lay out, then Advanced, and input the correct paper size before you print.

does this happen with all excels files, or one particular?
Create a new Excel file, and try printing it.. possibly could be in that particular file. I have seen this happen alott particulary with PDF files.. Where the incorrect paper size is in the file..

SOURCE: HP Laserjet 5000dn

if you using office go to page setup and select the tray(s) that you want to use for the first page and other pages ( both must be the same ) unless you only want the first page as letter head and the rest on plain paper or something along those lines ?

Also if you go into the properties of the printer and go to advanced and then click on the printing defaults button and see if the options in there are the same or different to whats in printing preferences.

If they are set to tray 1 then it will default to tray 1

How to change letter copy size to a4?

If the paper is size is set wrongly, then you need to change the default paper size of your printer.
Click Start and go to settings.
Click printers. Right-click your printer model and select Properties. Click the paper tab.
Choose the size of paper that you require to use in the paper Size-box.
Make sure to load the correct paper for the printer mentioned in the paper tab.
Click OK and then close the Printers folder. Most of the HP Laserjet printers automatically detect the paper sizes loaded in the paper trays thanks to the sensors present in the paper width guides.
For a better method, go to the Control Panel on your computer and select Devices and Printers.
Right-click on your printer model from the list and select Printer Properties.
Change the paper size from A1 to A4. Set manual feed to A4 instead of Letter. Call Our Toll-Free 1-866-293-9220

MY hp laserjet 200 color m251 pcl 6 do not print full copy of A4 when printing via internet or wireless pls, i need a setting to make it print full copy . thank you.

I would check to ensure that the page size of both the driver and the printer are set to A4 and not letter. Most HP's will auto sub letter for A4 but if driver thinks paper is letter when it is actually A4 then the printout will not match.

Always showing the manual feed option when we printing. We would like to set it as automatic printing. How can we do that in default. Please help. We checked all the menus. example: in system set up paper...

If you are in Canada or US then you need to set the default paper size to Letter not A4. Most if not all software you use likely sends the print job in letter format. Because the printer is set in A4 it stops and waits for that size.

My hp laserjet 4015n is very slow whiles printing after changing the setting to factory default

You need to set your paper tray correctly. If you are using Letter, make sure the tray is set to Letter, and if you are using A4, set the tray to A4.
"Any" is NOT a valid choice. You have to set the correct SIZE.
You will olso have to configure your driver correctly. Make sure the driver up to match your printers paper settings.

Good Luck.

Don't set by using the "Print" option.
Go to [Start]
[Printers and Faxes]
right-click on the HP Printer entry
! Don't select "Printing Preferences"! from there
Select [properties]
Select [Advanced] tab
Select [Printing Defaults]
[Advanced}
(I know, the screen looks the same, but it functions differently this way)
Change paper size to "Letter"
[OK, OK, OK]
