Aperture won't print from photo tray on HP Photosmart 6520

I've just started having a problem printing 4x6 photos with Aperture. When I print a borderless 4x6 glossy using the photo tray on my Photosmart it works fine. When I say to print a 4x6 borderless using the photo tray with photo premium paper it prints from the main tray rather than the photo tray. Plus now it's giving me a picture with borders, even though I specified borderless. Anyone have this problem?

Sorry, I do not know anything about your Printer. Have you looked, if there is an update for your printer driver, before you start reinstalling Aperture? If yes, upgrade your printer driver first. Also check, if you are having the same problem when printing from a different user account. Maybe some settings in your user accunt or startup items are interfering. You could also check, if printing from iPhoto or Photoshop has the same problem (but don't waste expensive photo paper on these tests 😉).


What is the Aperture version you are using?



Let me ask this: is there a problem deleting Aperture and reinstalling it? Will I lose anything? Thanks.

Your images are stored in the Aperture library/libraries, and your settings in your user library. This should not be affected by reinstalling Aperture. But do not reinstall, without ensuring that your backup is current.


How to reinstall will depend on the Aperture version you are using. This support article describes the procedure - ignore the title of the document - it is written to help with a nasty bug.
