Hello,
I can't change the paper size on the dashboard of my printer to make A4 copies. The format is set to envelope 110x220, so white paper is coming out.
When I try to change it, it says: this function has been locked by the person who set up the printer.
How can I unlock it if I don't remember locking it?
Thank you for your help.
Best regards.
Nijoma

    Hello,

    Have you been informed about the obsolescence of the HP printing kit due to the discontinuation of Adobe Flash Player (December 2020), which served as its support?

    Your issue may arise from this if you haven't updated the update implemented by HP.

    Otherwise, you might try updating the driver, but it’s best to check the changes that have occurred with HP software.

      Thank you for your response.
      No, I was not informed about the end of Adobe Flash Player.
      However, I forgot to tell you that I am on Mac. I tried to update, but it responds: We are sorry, this operating system is not supported.
      So, I am stuck.
      To make a photocopy, I have to scan and then print it out.

        Indeed, I assumed a bit too quickly that you were on PC. I don't have any skills on Mac, but I hope another user will take over. I suppose we can uninstall and then reinstall the driver, if you have it on a CD or download it from HP.

        Hello,
        problems solved by calling HP. They do this via WhatsApp. You have to send photos and they tell you what to do step by step. It lasted several hours because supposedly they had a technical issue. Anyway, the important thing is that they resolved my problem.
        Thanks everyone for everything.
