Cannot print one pdf

I am trying to print a 600kb pdf on an HPlaserjet 3005 via IP. It prints from a PC
and other files print from my iMac G5 1.9 1GB 10.4.11. I reinstalled the printers via
System Preferences and downloaded and installed the relevant HP driver - all to no avail.
Anyone any ideas on that one? Thanks in advance.

Hi, Howard,
as your iMac prints other files, the connection to the printer should be OK. Thus, its the file or the application with which you try to print. PDF-files can be opened with a variety of programs, such as Acrobat Reader, Preview, etc. I don't know what you mean with "IP"? IPhoto?
My advice: 1st, try with the other programs, if this doesn't help. look at the info-file which goes with the pdf-file an report back

I cannot print a PDF from Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader with Mavericks!

I cannot print a PDF from Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader. I tried on both MacBook Pros we have here, both now with Mavericks. Error message says "Opening printer connection failed. Unable to open printer connection . . . " This is after it says sending data, printing, shows the percentages etc., but then at the end I get the error message above. I can print a PDF (same one) from Preview, but not from Acrobat! What's going on? Never had this issue before Mavericks . . . Please help.

Uninstalled epson printer from control panel...installed new brother printer....now i cannot print anything .pdf old or newly downloaded

For starters, what exactly do you mean by "cannot print"?
Are you getting an error message? Are you trying to print from within Reader or are you opening these in the browser? What version of Reader. Even though it's a new printer, the drivers that came with it (or the ones that were already on your computer) may be old so, have you downloaded the most recent drivers from the Brother site?

Cannot print a PDF file after upgrading to Windows 8.1

Cannot print a PDF file after upgrading to Windows 8.1
I can print anything else from either the Desktop or Start but not a PDF. No error message but just does not print.
Update: down loaded Adobe Reader which runs on the desktop so when I read a PDF file it now runs on the desktop and I can print it.

My operating system is Windows XP SP3. I have Adobe 11.0.08 installed. I cannot print a pdf file/document. Error message - AeroRd32.exe - Unable To Locate Component - "Application failed to start because lxdautil.dll not found." Any suggestions?

That DLL is part of your printer driver; reinstall or update the device driver for your printer, and the message should go away.

I followed the FAQ troubleshooting and that didn't help

Here is what worked for me:
My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

Cannot print a pdf off my mac 10.6.x. I can print all other files Epson printer 'Cancelling'

Whats up?

I have the same problem, I cannot print ANY PDF file from my Mac running 10.8.5 Mountain Lion and using Adobe ReaderXI 11.0.4 I have verified that all files print properly when printed from within Preview or within Libre office. There is no option in the Mac Adobe reader to reset the installation like there is on Windows. I have also tried deleting reader completely and re-installing and the same behavior.

Why I cannot print a PDF with markups?

We use Acrobat Standard 7.0.8 and cannot print a PDF document form with markups. We found a "quick fix" to print it, which was to select in the print dialogue to print Document and Markups.
Question:
Because we've sent the form to our clients, they several have reported this about the form. Do you know why this would happen? Is it that they are using a different version of Adobe? Or what is the problem?
Joe

That's the way the application works. If you think the default should be to print the markups send a feature request to Adobe, but I doubt it will happen. You just need to explain to your clients how to do it. It's quite simple.

Cannot print a pdf file when the pdf file is opened in another window

Running FF8.0 I cannot print a pdf file when the file is contained in a separate window opened by the appl (not just another tab). Options -> options -> applications all point to Use Adobe Applications in Firefox. I've had this problem in 7.0, 6.0, etc but I believe I was finally able to print these external browser/adobe windows somehow. Printing a pdf file shouldn't be that tough. When I run into this situation, file can be printed from the external window by IE.

Check the document properties (Security) for this file in Adobe Reader; perhaps printing is not allowed?

I cannot print adobe pdf documents as it is password protected. I forgot my password. How do I fix this problem?

I cannot print adobe pdf documents. Password protected. How do I fix this problem?

You'll need to remember it or recreate the PDF from the original file.
If there were an easy way to get around that, passwords wouldn't be worth much.

Recently bought new printer. All works fine with one OSX user. However, cannot print anything on other OSX user, including cannot print Adobe PDFs or to new printer. Puzzling!

computer = Mac PowerPC G5
OS = 10.4.11
Adobe Acrobat 7
HP laserjet M1212nf
I recently bought a new HP printer. I was on an admin user when I installed it. All works fine with this admin account/user. I can print to the HP, print to Adobe PDFs.
However, when I then go over to another user account, I cannot print *anything*. I cannot print to Adobe PDF, cannot print to the new HP. If I try to print an excel file, it says "cannot communicate with the printer" along with some useless suggestions. If I try to print a page on FireFox, nothing happens. That is, sure I get the usual dialog box, click the appropriate choice of printer, click the number of copies, then click the OK button ... and nothing happens. No pdf process is started. Nothing is sent to the HP printer.
The fact that both printer options are not working suggests it is some kind of OS problem, not specific to either printer "device".
Any assistance is appreciated! Thanks!

Hi BDAqua,
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm a bit leery of trying that. I would think that if the driver was not installed, then none of my users could use the printer. However, both admin users can use the new printer. The list of available printers is:
Adobe PDF 7.0
New HP Printer
I also used to have Old HP Printer, which I removed. Before, Users A, B and C could use both the Adobe PDF and the Old HP printers. Then, after I added the New HP Printer, it showed up in the list of printers for all three users. However, after I added the new printer, only the two admin accounts, users A and C, can actually print anything. Both users A and C can use the Adobe PDF printer AND the New HP Printer. But I get error messages with user B, for both the Adobe PDF printer and the New HP Printer.

Since I upgraded Firefox, I am having printing problems. Yesterday I couldn't print checks from Quickbooks. Today I cannot print a pdf. HELP!!

I called QB yesterday and they had me download an add-on and now I am wondering if I need to do that for Acrobat?? Someone emailed me a PDF and I cannot print it.

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try some of the following programs to scan for malware:
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
* [http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] (A good permanent anti-virus if you don't already have one)
Further information can be found in the [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]] article.

Cannot print to PDF after change decimal symbol

When we used
Acrobat Pro 7.0, PDF printer worked fine with any setting of "Decimal
symbol" in regional setting. But, after we install Acrobat Pro 9.1, we cannot print t
o PDF any more, when we change decima symbol back to period,
it works but standard in my country is use comma "," for decimal symbol instead of per
iod "." error message is "standard.joboption..."
So, any one can give us the solution to print Word or Excel file to PDF without any error, why Acrobat 7 can work but not Acrobat 9.1 and above cannot.
Thanks in advance!
Hung

I downloaded a trial of Acrobat today, but apparently the Distiller part doesn't work at all. It's not really an option to change the decimal symbol, being Swedish. I'm using Win7x64, English language but Swedish keyboard, date format and of course comma as a decimal symbol.
Is the only solution using PDFcreator for printing PDFs? It seems very silly that Adobe can't get this right, it's beyond me why configuration parsing depends on the system locale!
This software is apparently not Win7-ready at all. Is there an updated version in the works?

PDF portfolio cannot print all pdfs

Hi,
[system: win xp, acrobat 9.3.1]
I cannot make acrobat print all pdfs in a portfolio. The user wants to be able to select multiple pdfs in the list in the portfolio and print - and I would expect Acrobat to be able to do that, but cannot make it work.
To test this issue i produced to pdf in acrobat. Use create new from blank page. no#1 is 1 page no#2 is 2 pages.
In acrobat click combine to single pdf > portfolio. I save my new pdf portfolio to the filesystem.
I open the portfolio and select both pdfs and click print icon. I only see 'All' in print range and NOT 'All pdf files' as other users explain they do
(for example in this post: http://prsync.com/adobe/batch-printing-pdfs-and-other-files-using-acrobat--19267/)
Hope someone knows whats missing and how to solve it??.

Did you follow the instructions on the website you gave in your post? In particular:
You don't have to print all the PDFs in the portfolio. If you click the List View button, you can then CTRL-Click to select just the files you want to print. Then, choose File> Print and Acrobat will only print the selected files

Adobe Pro 9.5.1 Update Now Cannot Print to PDF

Since the update to 9.5.1 from 9.5.0 I can no longer print to Adobe PDF from any program. I have reinstalled the update, ran the "Repair Adobe Installation" and still cannot print to a pdf. It hangs at the point where you would be asked to name and save the pdf file.
I need a solution please!

Since you apparently have the Adobe PDF printer, try printing to file from the print menu (just a check box). If that completes, open the file in Distiller to complete the process. Assuming success, you will need to check for AcroTray running in the background. It is necessary for the printer to work properly.
