Adobe Reader X Printing Problem

I upgraded to 'X', am running Windows XP and have an HP LaserJet 4100N printer. I mostly print out sets of loan documents, average 100 pages per set, mixed legal and letter size pages. When I upgraded to Adobe Reader X, legal size pages were randomly not printing the bottom 1/3 or so of each page. Since I travel to have these docs signed, it created quite a problem for me when it first happened. I could print smaller batches (1-5 pages, legal size only) and it worked, but printing the whole set, mixed paper sizes, I continued to have this problem.
Luckily I had kept an installation for Adobe Reader 9, so I uninstalled 'X' and reinstalled '9'. voila - the problem disappeared.
But I am hoping someone from Adobe will read this and work on this problem.

I can confirm this problem. Rolling back to version 9.4 fixes it.
One of my clients is a travel notary and ran into this issue today. All print settings were set up per Adobe's instructions at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/332/332720.html#main_Mixed_sizes when the problem occurred. We had recently upgraded to Reader X, and had never had the probem before. I eventually traced it to a problem in the new version. Uninstalling and installing version 9.4 fixed the issue. I cannot include the actual document due to privacy concerns, but I will include a screen shot that has been sanitized.

Adobe Reader 9 Print problem

When I try to print PDF's from reader my printer accepts the job but seems to push the top margin down a few inches, cutting off content. I'm working with Reader 9.3.4 in Mac OS Snow Leopard. My printer is an HP Deskjet F4280. This is the only program in which I have this problem. I've gone into print settings in Reader but don't see anything to change. I eventried printing multiple pages on a sheet which also was pushed down on the sheet and cut off. If there are multiple pages my print job will push each page down sllightly and print all pages in the range, but does continue to cut offf content from each page. Any ideas?

Adobe 11 A3 Printing Problems

Hi,
We are having problems printing from adobe documents from Adobe 11 when printing A3 documents. It will print out the first page OK, then on subsquent pages it will askew the print and put it off the page. We are using Windows 7 Pro and printing to a new Lexmark C925 A3 printer.
Any suggestions ?

I went to the pull-down menu, selected "Print" and then at the bottom of the print window, there were 4 buttons (in addition to "OK" and "Cancel"): "Print Tips" "Page Setup" "Advanced" and "Summarize Comments." Under "Advanced" there is a "Print as Image" box near the bottom of the new "Advanced Print Setup" window that opens. Once you check the "Print as Image" box, you should be ok for any Adobe documents you open in the future.

Adobe Reader X: print to HP Plotter only on A4 Paperformat possible

Hi,
after installing Adobe Reader X I cannot print any other paper format than A4 to my HP designjet Plotter 750c (E/A0).
Changing Paper Format in printer driver has no effekt in the printing dialog of Adobe Reader X.
Printing from Adobe Reader X to my other Printer Ricoh MPC2050 I can change between A5 to A3 without Problems.
With the old version Adober Reader 9.xx this was no problem and I could print all paper formats HP750c Plotter supports.
Adobe Reader X runs hier on a Windows XP system. Other software like autocad works well with HP750c Plotter with als supported paper formats.
HP Plotter Designjet 750c driver for Windows XP has version 4.65 (latest german version on HP website)
Has anybody any Ideas, where there ist the Problem?
Thanks for your help

I have just found this post and am still experiencing this problem, still, even after updating to 10.1, and still trying the disabling of Protected Mode at startup. I am running Windows 7, 32bit version. I am trying to print to an HP 4500 series plotter, on ARCH size D (24x36). Once I set all of my settings and hit print, I receive two dialogue boxes. One says "The document could not be printed." Once you click "OK", a second box pops up that says, "There were no pages selected to print." However, under "Print Range", I had "All" selected.
All worked fine before updating to Acrobat X.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Adobe Reader X prints large black spots in large documents

I have a user with Windows XP SP3 and Adobe Reader X. When he prints a catalog with images, it randomly prints large black spots throughout the document. If I print one of the individual pages that had black spots, it prints fine. Are there any known issues that would cause this or does anyone have any suggestions? He is printing to a Toshiba eStudios 5520c copier. No one else has the problem printing to this printer but, he is the only one using Adobe Reader to print catalogs to this printer. Everyone else printing catalogs to this printer use at least Adobe Pro of some version (the versions differ between users). I have increased the size of the page file and reinstalled the printer driver. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for providing the information.
Could you please try and reinstall the printer driver on this user's machine and see if it solves the issue.
Also, do all PDFs with images produce the same output from this user's machine?
Would it be possible for you to share any such PDF? I have sent you my email address as a Private Message.

Adobe Reader Cannot Print or Update

Has anyone been able to figure out how to get Adobe Reader to print in Leopard? I have a clean install of Leopard 10.5.8 and I ran the Adobe installer from the website. For some reason the installer installs 9.1.0, even though they are up to 9.1.3 now. I run the automatic update on Adobe and it says the installation failed because the program has been modified since I installed it originally. So the version I'm running is 9.1.1. I even tried manually installing the 9.1.2 update and it still fails. It says to try uninstalling and reinstalling. I cannot locate an uninstaller on the Adobe website, so I manually deleted the program and the Application support files and preferences files, and did a clean install again. Same problem. The worst part is that 9.1.1 cannot print files, presumably due to a bug that they hopefully fixed by 9.1.3. Whenever I try to print it just says the document could not be printed and then it says no pages were selected to be printed (whether I tell it to print all pages or select pages). Anyone find a solution to this problem. Big problem if Adobe Reader cannot print!

Unfortunately, Adobe does not see fit to provide any direct support for Reader. Another fine standard set for the world of customer service.
I did find something buried in the middle of a very long thread after trying the various other fixes listed there:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/1771565#1771565
It looks like this is another example of sloppy coding and case-sensitive vs. case-insensitive file systems. I found out several weeks back that this is why I my CS wasn't working, either. While I could solve that problem with a case-insensitive disk image, this doesn't work for Reader9, which only allows installation on the startup disk. This is also the reason why I couldn't update past 9.1, as this thread details:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2086122#2086122
When I "fixed" those filenames, I was able to update to 9.1.3, but now I could no longer open the file I need for my grant submission.
Long story short, I used carbon copy cloner to clone onto a case-INsensetive external disk. I'm now booted off that, was able to install & upgrade reader to 9.1.3. I can now open my key file and I can print and even open the preferences within Reader.

I am currently using Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 with the following information ,and I have problems printing in system configurations (I have an old Brother HL-1060 Laser printer)....
When I use the following defaultprinting preferences, the pages come out blank when printing riffmci.pdf (That can be found on the net):
- Resolution 600dpi

When I set the resolution to 1200dpi and 1200x600dpi Support to on the printing completes successfully. Is this a known issue with Adobe Acrobat Reader printing engine??

Adobe Reader 9 printing pdf problem

I have just had to do a compleate re install using Windows XP and Office 2007, Adobe Reader 9 now installed my pdf documents are visable but will not print to any of my printers. I currently have the following printers -a HP 1317 All in One and a Panasonic KX-P7100. Both worked perfectly with Adobe Reader 8 1 3. Now I have Adobe Reader 9 I cannot print PDF's. All other docs print out. Any advise please.

I have had the same problem with Acrobat 9 Pro (and Acrobat Reader, and trying to print PDF's within IE). In my case it seems to be related to my recent Internet Explorer 9 install. I had disabled the Adobe IE plugins (as well as others) for better performance, as Microsoft suggests. When I re-endabled the plugins in IE9, Adobe Acrobat 9 started printing again -- at least once every 3 tries; sometimes it would work with Print button, others with File > Print menu, and still others with right click > Print.
In any case, I fully blame Adobe. Having a dependency in your core app on something that sits inside another app as an add-on...? Inexcusable, and very poor software design. So add poor design to the poor technical support we're seeing on this issue. I hate to be this harsh, but after reading the forums about the same error, spanning months and months with no resolution, I have no other response for Adobe's lack of dealing with this issue properly.
I even re-installed Acrobat 9 Pro, with no success in fixing the problem. Buggy.

Can't get Adobe Reader to print statement from Scottrade on-line

I have Vista 64 bit Home Premium , Adobe Reader 9, version 9.3. When online with Windows Internet Explorer at www.scottrade .com, I go to my account, account history, account statements and select January 2010 statement to view and a popup screen which should show my statement, but the screen is blank. This screen usually shows the selected statement in PDF and I can print it out. If I wait a minute or so a popup massage comes up that says: Adobe PDF Document. "There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again." I exit try again and the same thing happens again. I have uninstalled/reinstalled Adobe Reader, restarted the computer and cannot get it to work. I did not have this problem several weeks ago.

I don't have the printing problem but I do have a very similar situation that I believe is a closely tied to your printing problem. I think the problem is in the way Internet Explorer or Win 7 processes the Adobe button action/script that calls for it to print or save the displayed PDF.
I have a problem with saving Adobe PDF files from inside Internet Explorer 8. I'm running Windows 7 Pro, IE 8, Adobe Reader 9.3, and Acrobat 9.3 Pro. Reader is my IE 8 Add-On. I can open the PDF file, click on "save a copy" either the icon button or go thru the File menu, but don't ever see the dialogue window that asks where I want to save it to, and of course the PDF file is not saved to my computer. I click and it just goes null. I've also tried the CTRL+Shift+S hotkey combo to no avail.
I once saw a dialogue window that popped up that alluded to "going outside the protected mode to save it" and did I want to continue. I've only seen that message window once and it was for just a split second.
I experimented with Protected Mode. I can open, read, and save the pdf file if I DISABLE Protected Mode. ENABLING Protected Mode to come back ON resets and reproduces the problem.
So, thinking it had to do with the Internet Security level, I cranked that setting down to the minimum but kept Protected Mode enabled. The problem was still there.
The workaround I use (until someone gives me a better fix) to get the "SAVE a copy to my computer or other location" button of the PDF to actually work is to:
Double-click Internet|Protected Mode: On at the bottom of the window or tab displaying the PDF file. This brings up the Internet Security settings panel.
Uncheck Enable Protected Mode. You are putting your computer at a bit of a risk... but you aren't going web surfing with Protected Mode turned Off. Do not leave the site where you turned it off.
Click Apply and OK. Close your browser window with the PDF and reopen it to the PDF you need to Save. If you are on a pop-up window or a second tab, you only have to close that one window or tab and reopen it.
You may have to log back on if you are working with an online statement of account.
Your browser should also show that it is "Internet | Protected Mode: Off". A yellow bar at the top of the page warns you the Protected Mode is turned Off.
Save the PDF as you've been doing all along until our software (Win 7 Pro U/G with IE8) started belching.
After saving, repeat steps 1, 2, and 3 above with rechecking Enable Protected Mode, setting it to On. Clicking the yellow bar at the top of your browser gets you right back into the security settings panel to reset the mode.
Close your browser and reopen it. Verify Protected Mode is reset to On.
It's risky to disable the Protected Mode, but if I need to save a copy of a pdf file, such as a statement of an online account, this is the only way I've discovered how to save a copy of it short of printing a hard copy, then scanning the hard copy to a pdf (a digital file) for storing/disseminating it. My workaround may also work for your printing needs. Try it once and don't forget to reset the Protected Mode back to On.
It's a nuisance, a real pain in the ol' sphincter, to have to do these steps but until Microsoft and Adobe have a meeting of minds and solve the problem... well, I gotta do what I gotta do.
I've only had Win 7 Pro for about a week. It was working great when I first upgraded from Win XP Pro (clean install) and a day or so ago without any significant changes or alterations on my part it just started acting up.
I posted this in Microsoft's Win 7 Forum as well so maybe one side or the other will fix it.

Adobe Reader is causing problems in Windows 7

Good morning all,
I have been doing some digging on this one and have had no joy so far. We are deploying Windows 7 in our office and I have one user, and only one who is having problems.
They had Adobe Reader X installed and they began to have problems with it after they were upgraded to WIN 7. When they went to print a PDF it started to lock their PC for 3-5 minutes after which they were able to continue with their work.
This behavior is internmittent in that it does not happen with every PDF and typically only happens once a day. Some times it is the first PDF of the day, sometimes in the middle of the day, but once it happens it does not happen again in the same day. Sometimes the user does not experience the problem for several days. We have been unsuccessful in determining any pattern or any particular in which this users machine is environmentally different from any other users machine.
No other users are experiencing this problem.
The user has a laptop and shuts it down to take home each night and starts the box fresh in the office each day.
Lately this behavior has extended to when the user just opens a PDF. Their laptop will freeze for 3-5 minutes and then they can continue with their work.
Based upon a very few articles we have found on the subject, we have tried a couple of things without success:
We have tried clearing the Adobe Reader cache
We have uninstalled Reader X and replaced it with Reader 9x
We are hoping that someone out there who has seen something like this before and can suggest some environmental or proceedural thing that we have missed. This one is driving us crazy.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Steve
