Trying to print a web picture on 8 x 11 on cassette 2 on Epson XP-810 but tells me to load paper in cassette 1, which is only for photo size paper. Cassette 2 is regular size paper. How do I fix this?

I Just right click on picture select save as. I now have a copy in my pictures. right click on picture select print, on the drop down window select paper size A 4 is 8X11 if it asks print to paper size click ok.

If its not a setting problem, it may not be communicating with your computer properly, try turning it off, wait a little while and turn it back on, if that doesn't work delete your printer off your computer and re install it, Is it the default printer on your computer? some times if you run more than one printer from your computer there's a conflict which can make it behave in weird and wonderful ways.

This can also be caused when the upper cassette tray (for small paper stock / photo paper) becomes detached from the lower tray. There is a gear attached to the lower paper tray which handles movement of the upper paper tray. Make sure that moving this gear causes the upper paper tray to move. If it doesn't, then you need to snap the upper paper try on a little better.

Go to your printers and faxes (xp), or Devices and printers (Win7) folder
Right click on the RX700 and choose Printer Preferences
Select A4 as the paper size
Select Page Layout tab and select Multi-Page and select 4 (default is 2)
Select 4 copies
Print away!

Alternatively, if you're using Windows, use the Office Picture manger, Picture and fax viewer of the like, and select the multi pictures setting. If you're printing one photo 4 times, remember to select 4 copies, as you're telling the app to print ONE pic in a 1/4 of the A4 page. You need 4 copies to fill the page with the same photo.

Hope this helps.

Please note:

• The photo paper cassette cannot be installed when printing on paper loaded in the in tray.
• The 7260 printer support 5x7 media only when printing from a computer with the printer software installed.

Loading 5 x 7 inch paper in the HP Photosmart 7260 printer

1. Lift the main cover of the printer, and slide the paper width guide as far to the left as it will go.
2. Lift the Out-tray and place a stack of paper in the In-tray.
   • Load the paper with the side to be printed facing down.
   • Load paper in the portrait orientation with the shortest edge feeding into the printer.
   • Do not use too much or too little paper. It may be difficult for the printer to pick up a sheet of paper when there are only one or two sheets in the in tray.
   • Use one type and size of paper at a time. Do not mix paper types or sizes in the In-tray.
3. Push the paper into the printer as far as it will go without bending.
4. Lower the Out-tray.
5. Adjust the paper width guide to fit snugly against the edge of the paper without bending the paper. The paper width guide holds the paper straight as it feeds into the printer.
6. Close the main cover.

Load 4 x 6 inch (10 x 15 cm) photo paper in an HP Photosmart
Use the photo cassette to load 4 x 6 inch (10 x 15 cm) paper. To print borderless photos, use 4 x 6 inch photo paper with a 0.5 inch tab (10 x 15 cm with 1.25 cm tab). This allows the photo to print without borders on three sides and with a small border on the bottom edge that can be torn off.
HP does not recommend printing borderless photos on plain paper. Also, remove any paper from the In tray before inserting the photo cassette into the printer.
1. Lift the top cover of the printer and remove the photo cassette from the sheath.
2. Place up to 15 sheets of photo paper in the photo cassette with the side to be printed facing down. For tabbed paper, insert the paper so the tabbed end goes into the cassette first.
3. Lift the main cover.
4. Slide the paper width guide all the way to the left.
5. Lift the Out tray and remove any paper that is in the In tray.
6. Line the photo cassette up with the far right edge of the In tray.
7. Gently slide the photo cassette into the printer until it snaps into place.
8. Lower the Out tray.
9. Slide the paper width guide to the right until it cradles the photo cassette, then close the main cover.

I'm afraid this series of printer (810 -830) doesn't handle heavy photo paper well - which is a bit strange for a so-called photo printer. If you hold each sheet and help it to feed it will work. But ...... for goodness sake. Your best bet is to sell it on e-bay and buy something that will handle heavy paper.
