Can't print preview or print in Excel or PowerPoint
Gosh, I've been so busy fighting wireless networking issues with Leopard, it wasn't until today that I finally had a need to print an Excel spreadsheet and much to my slowly building frustration with Leopard, that too is a no-go in Leopard. In either Excel or PowerPoint, using "print preview" yields only blank pages and if you attempt to print the document, you get precisely the same, just blank pages.. Such is not the case in either Word or Entourage... Those both print ok... What I also find somewhat ironic is if I dump those same Excel spreadsheets into Parallels under Windows XP and the pc version of Excel, I can print the documents with no problem... Ouch... On my mac I'm running the most current version of Office (11.3.9) and my printer is a Brother PrinterMFC5440CN. I've encountered this same printing issue on both of my macs, a MacBook Pro and a G4, both running Mac OS X 10.5.1... Anyone have any possible solutions??? thanks... bob...
Hi Robert,
Just wondering if you sorted out this problem? I am new to Macs and recently bought an iMac after being a PC and Windows user for years. I have never had problems with printing but very frustratingly do now with the Mac. I have an Epson R265 and can print from photoshop, entourage, excel but not from word.
If you had any success with this problem could you let me know.
thanks very much

Word for mac won't show doc in print preview and prints blank page.
I have a document from layoutready.com that I have been editing and it is a .doc file originally and won't show up. I've tried saving it as .docx and still nothing. Also, when I create a new document and put in a shape or a text box, it won't show up in print preview or print either. Excel is fine. I can insert a shape onto a worksheet and previews and prints fine. I have sent a document to a friend to test and when they open it in their word (on a pc) it previews and prints fine. I called stupid %*&#@ Microsoft and they want me to sign up for $99 Office 365 to get support. Ergh. Should I try to re-install Word? Oh, and I also updated to Yosemite last night.
Then post your question on the Microsoft Mac forums since it's their software you'r having problems with. These forums are for troubleshooting Apple products

Difference between execution mode of Print preview and Print for Output
Hello,
Can anybody tell the difference between execution mode of print preview and print for an output (For eg. PO output or Invoice)?. I am trying to download some documents linked to Purchase order to desktop. The code is written in the same driver program for printing PO and it is executed after smartform function module is called. It works fine in print preview mode and it fails in print mode. The reason why download fails in print mode is that GUI not available (just found from debugging).
Any ideas?
Thanks
AnilHI
try using any other printer and find out if you are getting the correct output. The printer needs to support Multiple Unicode encoding schemes like UTF 8, UTF 16BE, and UTF 16LE, plus special characters and logos, bi-directional text layout, and custom characters.. -
I hava an html webpage with css & print css. The print preview and print doesn't give correct output there is alignment problem when i connected with EPSONLX-300+II. But iam connected with hp laserjet they show the correct output with firefox. Please fix the problem as soon.....
I have same problem as you, but later I know how to deal with it.
1. change your print default preferences to
print quality into (120x144 dpi, or other which suites you)
mine goes well to 120x144 dpi
2. Before print enter File->Page setup, set true to option shrink to page width
in order to fit your page into your desired paper
(firefox will resize your content to suit the paper you choose).
If you dont want this you can disable this option.
3. Still in Page Setup, if checkbox "Print background (color & images)" is unchecked then
white text will be printed black.
Set this checked if you want to print white text as it is color.
I hope it answers your question.

Wrong print preview and printed color from Lightroom 1.3
I am running Vista Ultimate and i just installed the driver for my Canon PIXMA Pro9000.
When i try to print from Lightroom 1.3 the colors are very muted, even when i do print preview the colors are wrong in the print preview screen.
No matter what i do i cant seem to get lightroom to Print Preview AND print with the right colors.
The image on this link http://www.pbase.com/charld/image/94711330
(on the left) is what i see and get when i do a print preview and print and my monitor image is on the right.
If i use Canon DPP the colors are not that bad, its a bit dark but that was easily fixed and i can get it quite close to what i see on the screen. My monitor is not calibrated..The images were all shot in RAW and converted to DNG...Do i need to re-install Lightroom as i don't think print preview has anything to do with the printer i have attached....
ThanksI got the solution from another forum:
http://www.lightroomforums.net/showthread.php?t=1613
1. in the Print module, clicking on the Print Settings button ...
2. Choose your media type
3. Under Print Quality choose High
4. Under Color Intensity choose Manual. In the subsequent dialogue box choose None.
5. In the Print right hand panel under Color Management choose your print media - PR1 for Photo Paper Pro, SG1 for semi-gloss &c
6. Rendering intent Perceptual.
7. Hit Print and OK.
this resolved my issue!! -
Flash windows in web page do not print preview or print - works in IE
Specs:
Win XP Pro, SP3, Laptop and Win 7 Desktop
FF 3.6.10
IE8
Latest flash for IE and FF - 10.1.85.3 (previous 10.1 versions also issue)
I routinely use www.speedtest.net and www.speakeasy.net/speedtest to perform speed tests for troubleshooting issues. Both use Flash windows to show the Download/Upload speed test progress and final results.
In IE8, both ''print preview'' and ''print'' work and display/print the contents of the flash windows. In FF, everything displays/prints properly expect the content of the Flash windows - they are blank.
Apologize, as I imagine this has had to be reported in the past as I've seen posts via Google search going back many years, but could not find anything recent in FF help or forum. In addition, I assume this could be a Flash issue. However, if it is, it is not impacting IE. Regardless whether an FF or Adobe issue, I believe that Mozilla should head up and manage the repairs.If you just need an image of the page (not the browser frame or full desktop), the FireShot extension will do that. I have been using FireShot for some time and am quite happy with the results. I just tested it on www.speedtest.net results on my XP system and it worked. With Fireshot, you can add notations and print or save the image (full screen or just visible area). Do not opt for the paid "Pro" version, just use the free version. If you use it, you may want to block outgoing connection to screenshot-program.com in your firewall; I do not know why it tries to make that contact with it each screen capture, but it works fine with the firewall blocking the outgoing connection.

I often want to print an article from a website. Many times when I print preview, it will only show the first, second and maybe last page, but nothing inbetween. I have tried printing it anyway but nothing inbetween will print. My solution has been to go to Internet Explorer where I have then been able to print preview and print the entire article. This is annoying and takes extra time. Is there a setting that I need to make in order to eliminate the problem
Top left (Orange) Firefox button, Print, Print Preview. Does everything look correct? You may also click the icon that looks like a "DISK" to save, which allows you to save it to your computer and CTRL+P will allow you to print.

Error in print preview or printing
Hi Experts,
Have anyone of you experts encountered the error below:
Graphic cannot be displayed.
Message no. SSFCOMPOSER159
Diagnosis
The graphic with the key (name = , object = GRAPHICS, ID = BMAP, type = BCOL) could not be found.
System Response
The system issues an error message.
Procedure
Check whether the key is specified correctly.
This error was encountered when I am trying to have a print preview of form Order Acknowledgement based from the message I created in language 'NL' - Dutch, however I did not encounter this error when I print preview the form based from the message i created in EN - English.
Can you please help me find the reason or resolution to this problem. Thanks!
Nosaj-Hi
Your smartform is calling a logo doesn't exist.
Try to check the node GRAPHIC probably here the name of the logo is transfered by a variable and the variable is initial:
The graphic with the key (<b>name =</b> , object = GRAPHICS, ID = BMAP, type = BCOL)
As you can see it in the error message there's any value for the NAME: how are you indicating the name of the logo?

Problem with Print Preview and Print events
Hello Experts,
We have developed a program, in which, I m trying to display the % values in the Sub Totals and Grand Total lines, The logic and program functionality is performing very well. The report is displaying the output the way end user is willing to see.
The main problem is, the entire % values are going to a toss when we click the Print Preview or trying to print the report, which is not supposed to go that way. I have even tried to debug the program where the problem is evolving in the code, but it is not raised from the code.
Please refer to the screen shots.Before clicking the Print Preview and after clicking the print preview.
Do anybody face the same kind of problem ever?
If so please let me know what could be the best possible solution.
Thanks & Regards

Print preview and print button action
Hi,
This is first time when I am configuring any action in WebUi. I am trying to configure buttons on BT116H_SRVO. Clicking on "Print Preview" shows 'No manual print actions found' and click on "print' throws some exception.
I tried to check action configuration but could not find the right way to do it. Can you please guide me step-by-step as which action profile is meant for this component and how will these buttons work?
I tried action profile 'Service Order' but it seems it was not the right one.
Thanks.

Can you please let me know if my configuration is correct? -
Not able to print preview or print Smartform after the changes
Hi Experts,
I made a small change to the smartform, saved it and activated it. Transport it to our QAS system for testing.
But while trying to print preview the form i am not able to see any print/print preview. After my debug in the report that calls the form i found that at
call function G_FM_NAME it is not importing any values at all.
There was no change made on report or call function, we only change it on the smartform.
Could somebody tell me what might be the problem.
Thank you
Mamathai have no clue what your problem is, it would be too much of a guessing.
But i have a way how you can find out what the problem is:
After your "CALL FUNCTION fm_name"
adopt your coding with following:
IF sy-subrc NE 0.
CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_READ_ERRORS'
IMPORTING
errortab = yy_lt_errors.
ENDIF.
this will give you a list of errors if there are any.
Then have a look at that internal table, see the errornumbers and goto SE91 for outputclass "SSFCOMPOSER" and check what the message behind your error class is.
This has helped me quite often.

Print Preview and Printing have stopped
Hi,
I upgraded to iPhoto 08 on my iMac and everything was still printing quite happily. However after putting one of the fixpacks on it has now decided that it cannot print, sorry cannot remember which just getting round to trying to sort this out.
The print preview option just shows up blank when I preview a picture and nothing will print to the PictureMate I use. I have the latest download now applied but they have made no difference.
Everything else works fine apart from printing as far as I can see.
Thanks BleddynBleddyn:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Did you repair disk permissions after the last update? If not then give that a try. Then, if necessary, delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and try again.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file. -
Print (&preview) only prints small portion of page
When I use print preview, I see only a small portion of the upper left hand corner of the page, and if I try and print, that's exactly what prints.
I can scale down smaller to see the entire page, but it is still displayed in that small corner, and when printed is also reduced in size.Thanks for response.
I should have added that I had tried that reset you suggested earlier, and now that entry isn't there any more. But it didn't help.
Then, just now I tried the third suggestion in the list. Everything was as it should be, right sized paper, no multiple pages/sheet, etc.
BUT, without changing anything, when I went back to try it again, it seems to be fixed.
I'm a little more confused, but I'll take a win no matter how I get it. ;-) -
