Can no longer print after 5/2/13 Xerox software update...

After installing the recent Xerox software update that was released on May 2, 2013, we can no longer print to our Xerox machine.  Only those who have not installed the update can still print.  Anyone else having this problem?  Do we know if it is a known issue and a fix is in the works?

Hi, no Xrox printer here to try, bit on one of the updated ones, try this...

  • Many of my System Preferences will no longer work after installing Mountain Lion. Software update, startup disk, iCloud, etc. no longer will launch. I keep getting a drop down window saying I must restart system preferences in order to use. No go!

    Many of my System Preferences will no longer work after installing Mountain Lion. Software Update, Startup Disk, iCloud, Time Machine, Notifications, etc. no longer will launch even though they do show their icons in the system preferences window. I keep getting a drop down window saying I must restart system preferences in order to use with a "Cancel" or "OK" choice. After I click on "OK" the window just keeps reappearing with the same choices and the pane I wish to use still remains inoperative. Third party preference panes DO work.
    Reinstalling OSX Mountain Lion did not help. Neither did throwing away preferences.plist.

    Hi Jeff,
    Tried to reply with my iPhone but not easy! Anyway, back on the laptop now. Yes the crash was bad but Tek support at Prism Sound was really good. In the end I rebuilt the whole system on a new disk which took a couple of days with all the plugins, softsynths etc.... but there seemed to be no alternative in my case, and this was agreed with Prism sound as being the only alternative left to me. I still don't really know what caused the crash but ML and Orpheus are both working fine now. Let's face it, you'll have to update at sometime..maybe best to pick some time between projects On balance, I suspect that my problems were unique to my system and that your installation will go ok.
    Hope it goes well,
    Rick

  • Can no longer print after MacOS 10.6.8 upgrade

    I used to have full Reader functionality on my core duo 2006 era MAcbook. Since I upgraded to OS 10.6.8 I can no longer print. I get a print error that says "No pages selected to print" even though I clearly selected the whole document.
      Nor do on line pdf forms on websites seem to recognize it when I fill them in. I tried version 9.5, 10.x and 11.02. The latter 11.02 will not run at all on my computer even though it installs OK.

    After installing latest OS 5.1 update I can no longer print to my HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer?   Suggestions?

    Installing the new os may have tricked one of the three devices involved.  If it used to work, it will again.
    Reboot the printer.   Reboot the router.  On the pad, general, reset, reset network connections. 
    Make sure all the devices are on the same wifi network.   Talk nice to it.

  • Can no longer print to shared printer on mac running 10.5

    We have an old G5 that we use to share a printer between various macs all running 10.9. I recently upgraded the G5 to 10.5 to see if that helped with some  issues we had, but now that we can no longer print to the printer.
    What I have done so far:
    #1 Updated the printer drivers on both 10.5 & 10.9 macs.
    #2 Reset printing System on both 10.5 & 10.9 macs.
    #3 Readded the printer to the 10.5 Sys Pref > Print & Fax using actual driver
    #4 Readded the printer to the 10.9 Sys Pref > Print & Fax
    If I do the last step by using "Add printer or scanner" option...
    ...but use the Generic Postscript Driver I get: Looking for Printer > Connected to Printer > then the error "Stopped on server [G5's name] - No pages Found!". The job does appear on the G5 in the printer queue.
    ...but use the actual driver I get: Looking for Printer > Connected to Printer > then the error "Stopped on server [G5's name] - Unable to write uncompressed document data: Operati...". The job does appear on the G5 in the printer queue.
    If I do the last step by selecting the printer under "Nearby Printers" I get "Unable to download the software from the server at his time".

    There are some differences in sharing but it will work. I have a G4 that I use as a server, too.
    First, tell me what printer model. There are driver differences, too.
    At the heart, CUPS (the print control subsystem) uses IPP as the print sharing protocol. That part hasn't changed. So I recommend, for troubleshooting, setting up the printer on the client using IP printer > IPP protocol.
    Here's a guide:
    1) On the 10.5 print server, use a browser and point it at the CUPS admin web page athttp://localhost:631
    Go to Printers list and find the queue name from the left side of the page next to the printer you want. Also note the IP address of the server Mac.
    2) On a client, Add the printer as an IP printer > IPP protocol, and enter the IP address and queue name you noted above.
    3) Select the generic postscript driver (on client Mac)
    (after reading your second post, I want to remind you to set the server to use the correct driver.)
    Finish and try it.

  • My iMac can no longer print to HP 6700 since OS 10.9

    My iMac can no longer print to my HP 6700 printer.  This happened after I installed OS 10.9  The rest of my family has PCs and they have no trouble printing at all, so I don't think the printer is the problem.  My husband keeps saying get drivers from HP.  The HP website has no listing for OS 10.9.  I just purchased this printer a few months ago.  Is there anything I can do to get it working again?

    Hi btysmom
    I would like to help. I have spoke with several customers who have upgraded to Mavericks and required information for printing and or scanning. Here is a link to the HP Forums I have posted some information I think will help.

  • Can no longer print on any network printers or on printer wired to USB

    I changed the printer to "Select printer"  save as PDF
    since then i can no longer print to any printer on network
    also I tried to connect a printer direct to usb. still no luck.
    I have tried to update software
    I have tried to select different printer on network
    I believe the problem is in a setting that automatically changed when I selected "Save as PDF" as one of the printers.
    there are so many tabs and locations on this system I just don't know where to start

    First thing to try is go into your system preferences using the little apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen. Go to printers  an see if your printer is listed there. Go through the settings looking for something that would lock it to acting like a PDF exporter all the time. Sometimes the printer utility will have a "Print Test Page Option".
    Installing some software, like Adobe, will also install dummy printer drivers that show up as "PDF Printers" in the Printers listing. This could be set as the default printer, but shouldn't stop you from selecting a different printer at print time.
    If all else fails, you could try removing all he printers from your System Preferences, then reinstalling your current printer with default setups after restarting the computer. When it sees the "new" device it should start the install process like it did the first time. If you are not comfortable doing that, better to wait for better help or you could end up being worse off than you are now.
    I too print to PDF often by selecting the option at the bottom of the print page. But it doesn't lock into that mode. It prints to the printer by default.
    Good luck.

  • Since upgrading to Yosemite, I can no longer print to my Kodak AiO.  The fix on Kodak site does not work.

    Since upgrading my Macbook to Yosemite 10, I can no longer print to my Kodak AiO 5250.  The fix on Kodak site with Terminal does not prompt to password like it says it will.  Macbook has all available upgrades completed.  Printer works with a PC. 

    This is where I found the Kodak fix:  http://support.en.kodak.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/49247/selected/true
    I'm not really comfortable in 'Terminal' but tried it.  Nothing happened after pasting in the first command.  The fix says it will ask for password. 
    I see now this seems to be a pretty common problem, I would have thought Apple would fix it with an update for the number of complaints I've found.  Since Kodak is in receivership or bankruptcy, I would think it's unlikely they will have any more solutions.  I feel like Yosemite stole my printer. 

  • When Firefox last automatically updated, it suggested that Adobe reader needed updating, now, with Adobe Reader 8, I can no longer print from the internet, only to file. Help please.

    When Mozilla Firefox last automatically updated, it suggested that Adobe Reader needed updating. After updating to Adobe Reader 8, I can no longer print from the internet, only to a file. I know the printer and its interface must be OK because Word prints normally.

    Problem solved, it was my oversight, I had not removed the check from the Print to File box in the print set up.

  • HP LaserJet 1018 no longer prints after security update

    After installing the following updates on my HP Pavilion dv71023cl running Windows Vista:

    http://support.microsoft.com/select/?target=hub
    It appears I can no longer print from Internet Explorer 9.
    Clicking on gear icon and selecting the Print item, shows the Microsoft XPS Document Writer is highlighted instead of the HP Laserjet 1018 as I expect. When I select the HP Laserjet 1018, the Print Button becomes grayed-out.
    Attemping to print from Adobe Reader X also hangs the application.
    However, printing is working when using Open Office.
    I cannot recall if I attempted to print between the time these 2 updates were installed, so cannot determine which is the cause of the problem.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Sounds like you've run into some printer issues since your most recent update. First I wold recommend removing the software and then going to the HP website and re installing the software from the direct driver downloads. 
    First if you use a USB cord, make sure to remove it (this is important). Do not plug it back in until the software directs you to. Then go through the Devices and Printers, Programs and Features and Device Manager folders and insure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. Then as directed, restart the computer. 
    In the START menu type "%temp%" and press ENTER. Here I want you to press Ctrl+A and hit DELETE. Some of the files will not allow you to delete them, skip those files and delete the majority that allows it. 
    Download this file, and if optional use the Full-feature software.

    If that does not work I would try the PL6 drivers :

    Install that and let me know the result!

  • I can no longer print PDF files that were scanned with the very same MX479 on Windows XP, SP3

    I can no longer print PDF files that were scanned with the very same MX479 All-in-One.
    I have an (obsolete) Windows XP, SP3 computer.  Obviously, no updates from Microsoft
    have occurred that might have impacted my Canon Pixma MX479.
    When I attempt to send 1 or more pages from a PDF file to the printer, I don't even get the
    Canon PIXMA popup that would allow me to cancel the print job.
    Yet the Print Queue icon appears in the lower right corner of my monitor.
    If I view the Print Queue, the print queue shows "spooling" and does nothing more.
    If I attempt to CANCEL the print job in the Print Queue, it simply changes to "deleting -
    spooling".
    I cannot cancel the print job that shows NOT RESPONDING via Task Manager, either.
    In fact, the only way the Print Queue icon disappears is if I totally reboot my computer!
    "Luckily", I can still print e-mails, Word documents, and even my downloaded PDF of my
    bank statement.
    So, I was thinking that it was *only* PIXMA'S OWN SCANNED PDFS that could not be
    printed ON THE SAME PIXMA 479.
    However, I have since realized that I also cannot print USPS Signature Proof of Delivery
    PDFs that I received from USPS via e-mail.
    So why can I print *some* PDF files, but not *all* PDF files, like I previously could do?
    THESE SCANS ARE OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS, SO I WILL LIKELY HAVE TO E-MAIL
    THE REQUISITE, PREVIOUSLY SCANNED PDFS TO FEDEX TO PAY FOR *THEM*
    TO PRINT THEM.
    NOTE: I *have* tried turning the PIXMA off, unplugging it, rebooting the computer, plugging
    the PIXM in and restarting the PIXMA - still no ability to print PIXMA-scanned PDFs.
    And, I find it very strange that e-mails, Word documents, and some other PDFs print with
    no problem "around" "NOT RESPONDING" PIXMA print jobs.
    I have owned Canon printers for years, including the MX420, and the MX340.

    There may be some security issues related to the USPS PDFs.

    I can't help with the scan/print problem. You seem to have done everything I would try.
    I don't know if maybe using a registry cleaner would help.

    It appears to be a bug with the current build. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next release.
