Print dialog window disappears

Currently testing the following configuration:
App server version = 9.0.4.1
Host = Tru64
Jinitiator version = 1.3.1.13
Webutil version = 1.0.5
Problem:
When invoking the Oracle 'print' built-in and clicking on the 'ok' button on the print dialog box, the application browser is moved behind all other windows currently displayed on the desktop. Has anyone encountered this issue and if so, how did you solve it? (We use the 'print' built-in on every form to allow the user to do a screen print of the form).
Thanks for your input.

did you find any solution to this print issue. We are experiencing for one client machine. Thanks in advance.

When printing Firefox does not open the Print Dialog window

When printing at our office we often need to print to multiple printers and not just the default printer. When printing in Firefox, however, the print automatically gets sent to the default printer and I do not get a print dialog window. I have reset Firefox's printer options, changed the prefs.js file, and launched Firefox from safe mode to check if an add-on is affecting printing - all to no avail. When I print from Chrome, or (shudder) Internet Explorer I get a dialog box giving me printer options. Your help and responses will be appreciated.

There is a hidden preference to bypass the dialog, but it definitely is not set by default. To check for that:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''print.''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) If you discover a preference named '''print.always_print_silent''' there's your trouble.
Next question would be, where did it come from?! Some possibilities:
(A) A user.js file that overrides prefs.js at startup. See: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
(B) A lock file in the program folder. See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences

Open Printer dialog window

Can I open the Windows Printer dialog window in Forms during runtime and then send the printer name that the user selected to Oracle Reports?

Here is the code for showing the WINDOWS PRINTER DIALOG BOX. REMEMBER YOU HAVE TO ATTACH D2KWUTIL.PLL file for this to work.
declare
v_printer_name varchar2(1000) := null;
v_port varchar2(1000);
v_exception boolean;
begin
win_api_dialog.select_printer(v_printer_name,v_port,v_exception);

:b_selection.local_printer := v_printer_name;
exception
when others
then

Just a tip on a sidenote: Studying the interface of the FM which calls the smartform can help a lot.

Print dialog items disappear

This has been happening a lot more frequently, but everytime I print with either Preview, Safari, or Mail, a lot of the buttons, check boxes, pop-up menus, etc. completely disappear in the print dialog boxes. A couple of items might show up (i.e. a pop-up menu for the printer), and if I choose something in the menu, a few more items might appear in the rest of the dialog box.
Any ideas?
I using 10.4.5.

I'm having the same problem...posted a few days ago, hope there is a resolve soon : )
"When I choose PRINT (in Safari, Preview and Mail) the print window shows up, but the options QUICKLY DISAPPEAR leaving ONLY the name of the printer, # of copies and print button showing... Anyone know how to resolve this?"

Print dialog window does not go away

Hi,
This is an issue I've experienced many times. When I try to print a web page from Safari, the print dialog opens, I select the printer and/or orientation, then I click on the "OK" button. But, the window does not respond, Safari seems to be working (it does not appear as 'not responding' in the 'force quit' dialog and the menus are selectable. But the window does not go away, nothing is sent to the printer, and Safari does not respond to certain operations such as moving to another tab, go back, or change the url, so basically I am stuck, no printing, and end up closing safari to open it again.

Hello mario:
Is this an intermittent problem, or does it happen all the time? I would, at a minimum, run repair disk from your software install DVD and also run permission repair from your HD.
I would also trash the Safari preference file (com.apple.safari.plist) and restart.
Of course, the problem could lie in the connectivity with your printer, but that is another issue.

How can we print using the windows printer dialog window?

Hi,
We recently got new printers and a printer setup on our server that are set to print in greyscale as a default. In the past the printers defaulted to printing in color. When I create VI's and reports I have used to set "Print on completion" or the print option from the Report Generation Toolkit, and I have received my prints in color. After changing the printer drivers on the server any printing method I used to do from LabVIEW will always produce greyscale prints. These prints are fine for everyday use, however we need color prints when the documents are for customers or for other official use.
If I could only send documents/VI's to that process the user could override the "greyscale" setting and select "color" in the cases where we need a better looking print. Obviously the other option is to save the document/VI as a file and later print it from any windows software (Excel, Paint etc.).
Do anyone have any neat tricks for printing using the windows printer dialog?

You can change printer settings programmatically via a .NET assembly. You can also bring up the Print Dialog to change settings manually before printing.
More info on the .NET assembly for colour settings here:

Changing Print Dialog Window

Hello,
Looking for ways to change the appearence of the Print Dialog Box.
Hope this makes sense.
In the Print Dialog Box the drop down menu that list: "Copies & Pages", "Layout", "Output Options", ..... "Printer Features".......
I want it to list "Printer Features" first in the drop down menu! How do I change this so this gets listed first?

Delay in displaying print dialog window

When I click on 'print', in Reader (any version) there is a 90 second delay before the print window appears! This seems to be because Reader 'polls' all the printers in my list, before showing the window.
I can make the problem disappear by deleting the printers which are not connected at the time - but then, I have to re-install those printers each time I re-connect them, and want to use them.
Is there any way to set Reader so that it only 'polls' printers when they are chosen via the dialog box - in the same way that other applications (such as MS Word) do? That way, you only get a delay if you try to send output to a printer that is currently disconnected.
(Sorry if this has been covered before - I couldn't find a thread)

OK, problem solved.
It appears that a printer on a user's printer list would cause the delay each time you attempted to print a pdf. Saw this occur from Acrobat Reader, Standard, and Professional.
The solution is to delete a suspected printer from the Printers and Faxes list, then try printing a pdf. You'll know when you've deleted the correct printer, as the dialog box will come up immediately when you File/Print. Keep deleting until you've got the correct printer.
Network printers no longer installed should be your first suspects. However, we found valid, working printers to be the cause on a couple of occasions.

Save As dialog window disappears when trying to save or use pdf writer

When I try to create a pdf using a pdf writer/printer, or even when i try to save a pdf file, the dialog box showing where to save it appears then immediately disappears before i can choose a name or location to save the pdf. i have tried reinstalling the reader, reooting, reinstalling the pdf writer, nothing seems to work.

I have tried multiple pdf writers including cutepdf and a proprietary pdf writer so I am pretty sure the problem lies within adobe reader. Especially since the problem occurs when I just try to save the pdf and not use the writer.
