Can't print .pdf files on windows network printer

Hi,
I cannot print .pdf files on Canon IRC printer with UFR II 2.23 or 2.24 drivers connected through a windows network by LDP protocol, either with Apple Preview or Acrobat Reader - looks like the software doesn't find the printer (I have the rainbow whell and the software does not answer). It can last for hours, there is no other solution than forcing the soft to quit and finding another way to print. I have updated Canon drivers from 2.23 to 2.24 (all supposed to work with Lion) and that does not fix the problem.
This problem does not happen with Ms Word or Safari (or, more generally, other types of files) and it worked fine with Snow Leo even with pdf!! I also have windows XP with Parallels and guess what? I can print through Parallels with Acrobat Reader (for windows XP) on the same printer on which I cannot print with my Mac with Lion and Preview or Acrobat Reader for Mac!
Please help !!
Alexis

Correction
It works with Acrobat but the printer does not like queues of documents...
The site privided me with the topics I fas looking for about this : it's a Canon drivers and Lion permissions problem.

  • Can't open PDF files from Windows Explorer on Windows 8.1

    Hello,
    after I've upgraded to Windows 8.1, I can't open PDF files from Windows Explorer (directly double clicking the file). The AcroRd32.exe runs in the background (2x !) as I see the processes in task manager, but there is no user interface visible. I have Acrobat
    Reader 11.0.06, the desktop version (not Metro). I tried uninstalling the Acrobat reader and installing it again but this didn't help. The only way to open PDF files is to close the AcroRd32.exe from the task manager, open empty Acrobat Reader from the desktop
    and then drag&drop the PDF file over that window. This is quite inconvenient. Is there a way to fix this issue so I can open PDF files directly from windows explorer?
    Many thanks!

    I had to install adobe reader, but   PDF's used to display just fine with IE, any idea what happened ?
    Windows 8.1 pro.
    thx

  • Print PDF file directly to store printer

    Hi Gurus,
    Having not found a solution, we think we need help from you. We have searched forums and google but have not found adequate solutions.
    We are a retailer having different stores. Our main office is using SAP. Each store has its printer and defined in our SAP system. We want to print PDF files directly to store printer using SAP . How should we do that ? We think there are 2 steps:
    1) Upload PDF files from network directory into SAP (We done it, no problem)
    2) Having now PDF files in internal tables, how should we proceed to print PDF files using store printers?
         Please note that we do not want to use CL_GUI_PDFVIEWER since we do not want to display the PDF and having the obligation to choose the print option from dialog and also we do not want to call Adobe OLE object  to print
    Any answer would be appreciated
    Thank you very much

    Hi,
    It is really late to give response this post. But still who ever refering to this post for the same issue this solution is useful for achieving same in background:
    Even same can be used in smartforms, for getting spool request in PDF format as well which will decrease the size of file when printing in SAP printer.
    ct_tline is PDF output:
    DATA: lv_pdfsource TYPE xstring.
    FIELD-SYMBOLS:<p> TYPE x. " <p> type any.
    LOOP AT ct_tline INTO cs_tline.
      ASSIGN cs_tline TO <p> CASTING TYPE x.
      CONCATENATE lv_pdfsource <p> INTO lv_pdfsource IN BYTE MODE.
    ENDLOOP.
    * ->Create spool request in PDF format
    CALL FUNCTION 'ADS_CREATE_PDF_SPOOLJOB'
      EXPORTING
        printer  = 'LOCL'            "Printer name supporting PDF device type
    *   DEST     =
        pages    = 1
        pdf_data = lv_pdfsource        "XSTRING internal table
    *   NAME     =

    I fixed this problem. I had to turn off the browser virtualization feature in Zone Alarm Extreme Security. This wiped out all of the Firefox settings, but I had bookmarks, etc. backed up. (answered by original poster)

  • Hp 3030 mfp won't print pdf files in windows 7 it

    I am unable to print pdf files/documents and I am unable to scan documents into pdf format.

    Hi there @jdwigg ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I read your post, and I hope to help out! As you are able to print successfully from your Windows 7 laptop, the printer is functioning fine, and the issue is most likely software related to your Windows 8.1 computer.
    Here are some links I would recommend you check out to see if they can help with the problem printing PDF files:

  • Unable to print PDF file in HP deskjet printer ink advantage 1515

    Hi , currently i have difficulty in using my printer(HP deskjet  printer ink advantage 1515 ) to print PDF file, but Microsof word and powerpoint is ok,, so , any idea?

    You are welcome!
    I have a few more suggestions for you to try that might help. You can try printing your PDF file by using another program, or you can try running the Print and Scan Doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for any conflicts that could be causing the issue. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there was a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results.If there was no issues detected, you can also try Uninstalling the Printer Software from the Control Panel, restarting your PC and reinstall the full driver here: HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 1515 All-in-One Printer 
    If the PDF's not printing was due to an issue with the printer software, the issue would be resolved by uninstalling and reinstalling the printer. If the problem continues, try posting this issue in the Adobe Forums for further assistance.
    Have a great day

  • Can't open pdf files in Windows 8 with Acrobat XI

    I have windows 8, and Mozilla Thunderbird email client.  When attempting to open PDFs I get this message "Adobe Reader could not open 'Wiring Invoice 409343281 Dated 04_05_2013-2.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."  I have tried documents from numerous different sources, all with the same result.  I have uninstalled, reinstalled, repaired, restarted, etc.  I did not have this issue with XP and Acrobat reader X.   HELP!!  I cannot print invoices until this is corrected....thanks!

    Hi,
    Are you try to open PDF file attachments from Mozilla Thunderbird.?
    Could you try to save the PDF file locally and then try to open the PDF file?
    Or try downloading sample PDF from here http://www.samplepdf.com/sample.pdf and open it in Adobe Reader.
    Thanks

  • Adobe reader9 was installed monday, but now I can not read pdf files in windows mail

    I have windows vista. last saturday a popup asked if I wanted to install Adobe9. I clicked OK but later the install failed. talked with adobe support on monday and they installed adobe9 on my pc. however, when emails are sent to me with an attachment that is a PDF file, I can not open the attachment...it loads Acrobat.com instead.
    I think there is a incompatiblity between mail and this new adobe.
    l tried to reload adobe 8.2 but the install fails because it say I have a higher version (9).
    any help would be greatly appreciated since these attachments are info for my home business.
    thank you, larry

    thank you for your response.
    this procedure does work and I appreciate your help. I just wish that the
    PDF file could be opened in mail like it did before the new version was
    loaded. but in the mean time I have your work around.
    I plan on re-contacting adobe and see if they can un-install 9 and then I
    can install 8.2.
    regards, Larry

  • Can't open pdf file in window 7

    When I open pdf file, an icon is popped up showing "Adobe Reader stopped operation. Program stopped normal operation because of problem happened. Window will inform you later if probem is solved."

    I had uninstalled the Adobe Reader program twice and installed again but it can't be worked.
    Also, your second method can't be solved my problem.
    The problem is as follows:
    When I open pdf file through internet and the mouse’s cursor is inside the IE8 browser , the box popped up. Because I used Chinese windows 7. The meaning likes this
    "Adobe Reader had stopped operation
    Windows are trying to find the solving problem…"
    Then, second box popped up.
    "Adobe Reader had stopped operation
    Because of problem, the application had been stopped.
    Windows closed the program, to be informed you later if problem is solved"
    Same problem in opening pdf file in my computer’s folder.
    But it can work with the keyboard if the mouse’s cursor is not in the pdf document area. Or using Google Chrome browser to see internet pdf file.
