I can't change the settings to regular paper instead of photopaper?

Strange. I've tried with all preset possibilities and there was no problem so far, but the set of possibilities is different for each preset that's strange anyway ....

I have one, too. It accepts card stock fine, but the print quality thereon is abysmal. What settings do you use?Thanks!

Press the "White" tab inside the paper tray to change the paper size to Legal and change the paper to "Legal" in the printer properties before printing. the white tab is located next to the green tab you also use for setting paper size.

It might be that the printhead is dirty. I save that blue alignment/cleaning card at the bottom of the stack of photo paper and run it through again (put it back on the bottom, with the printed side down, and it'll run through when you close the paper compartment cover). I also put it back on the bottom if it's going to be a while before I use the printer again.

I still have the software on my comuter for this printer. Take the paper out of the tray. Grab the entire tray mechanism (photo and larger) by the back end of tray (printer end). Wiggle it a little, then press down carefully on the back of trays (printer side/not front) and see if it clicks into place. The "help" says this is for when the photo tray won't dis-engage, so try it. Maybe when you loaded it the trays lifted a little. Also, this printer seems to have an issue with overloading. Put the paper back in (don't go above the top of the paper guides) then slide in the guides till they touch the paper. See if the top tray will swing down. That's all the menu had, sorry. Hope it helps. I still have the software on my comuter for this printer. Take the paper out of the tray. Grab the entire tray mechanism (photo and larger) by the back end of tray (printer end).

Unfortunately it is a default settings from all printers. It should help if you push reset then start, if it stops printing mid work.

You have to check the box for double-sided printing since it's not the default setting. You can do this in the print options for your document.

Did you ever figure this out? I lost the little paper that came with it and now I can't use it!

I have not used photo paper. The quality is less than the original in both color brilliance and tone. The photos are also less sharp. But the regular paper vs photo paper probably is the major reason. I would investigate further if you are planning to use it when photo resolution is very important.

you can change the settings of how it prints in the print function. You can select 'fit to page' or 'none'. I have had to play with this a little bit to get it to come out right. Seems to not always do the same things depending on the document. Hope this helps answer

I have printed pictures and found that I need to remove the regular paper before loading the photo paper. I haven't tried cardstock yet. I do like being able to use third party ink. I do a lot of printing and my HP printer would not allow this or refills and I couldn't afford the ink for it.

reboot your printer then it should release and re adjust itself. same for paper jam open back and remove paper incase.

Have you tried changing the settings within the software that you are using and selecting a sheet of pics to print such as in school photos. I have printed those types of pictures but did not make this selection from the printer but from the software I was using on the computer. If you are not using a computer, I am uncertain as to how you would do this.

Just set the settings on the page to the dementions the paper is and center the text it will show up as its seen

I sent mine back. It wouldn't automatically adjust even between letter and legal size paper.

Are you talking about through Microsoft word? There's a setting you can change through Microsoft word, I wouldn't know about he printer. Also, I can never print black and white from the web, unless I use the system dialogue and set to black ink only(every time)

I've had great results using the "premium photo paper semi-gloss" setting on my WF-3540. I believe there's a direction to do just that in the insert that comes with the paper.
