Reader XI (11.0.05) pdf prints partial page

I am using Reader 11.0.05 and having trouble getting a whole page to print. Need to somehow be able to shrink to fit, but that is not an option.
Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Reader. Have checked and updated printer drivers. Have used a different printer all with the same result.
Any ideas?

Try 'Print as Image' (Advanced button on Print panel).
Or what if you use 'Fit' under Page Sizing & Handling?

Canon Pixma M860 only prints partial pages

Hi,
Thanks in advance for your assistance. I had to take my computer in because of several stalling issues, and had to unhook my printer to do so. It was working fine then. When I plugged it back in, the printer won't work properly; it only prints partial pages. I checked the ink supplies, and they are fine. I cleaned the heads, they too are fine. I tried to open the Solution Menu, but it comes up blank. Can you help? I'd sure appreciate it!

No problems with the response times. I just noticed a huge delay with trying to reply to you and I'm using Firefox.
Okay, to answer the three replies...
Question: after this, how will I know where to go to add my printer queue again? I'm sorry, I don't quite know where/how to do this? Do you mean I just try to print some things again?
I need you to add the printer queue again by opening Print & Fax and clicking the + button under the now empty Printers list. If the printer is connected to the Mac via USB cable then you can select the Default icon and then select the MX860 in the list. This should automatically change the Print Using menu to 'Canon MX860 series'. You can then click Add to complete the printer queue creation.
If the printer is wireless instead of USB then please let me know as the procedure is a bit different to the above.
Also, you mentioned that the Solutions Menu isn't really needed. I had just hoped the troubleshooting button it is supposed to have could be of some use in repairing my printer, but it doesn't sound like it from what you say here? If not, that's okay. Just wondering.
To be honest I've never installed the Solution Menu so I cannot comment on how well the troubleshooting information is. Since I feel I know more than these guides ever provide then I've never felt the need to use them. For you it could be handy but having read other Canon guides I feel that they can confuse the user more than help them...
They just did the Repair Disk thing and it was better for oh, about a minute. I realize that's not the issue we are discussing; I just mentioned it to let you know I'm responding as quick as I'm able, and just in case you think Safari's weirdness might be affecting the printer somehow.
At this stage I would say that Safari is not the problem but the sluggish operation you are noticing when using it could be an indication that something is using resources on your Mac and this could also be impacting the printing. In this situation I would suggest a Mac user to check the Activity Monitor. This will show you every little background service that is currently running on your Mac and one or more of these services could be the culprit. An example would be the previous printer software. With older drivers many vendors install services with their drivers to provide users with information, such as ink status, because the then current OS did not provide them. This is fine when you have that printer connected but when it is removed and you use a different printer, especially from a different vendor, then these services can cause performance issues for the new printer.
Okay, I'm heading home now but I will log in again after dinner to see how you're going...

My deskjet 9800 only prints partial pages

My deskjet 9800 only prints partial pages in 11x17" format. then pulls another paper for two inches of printing then pulls another paper for another two inches of printing etc. Other sizes work fine. I just upgraded my computer and changed cable to a usb port. I downloaded a new driver and reset all the settings. I am lost as what to do. thank you Einer Mortensen

Hello , Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you're experiencing partial print issues when printing from your Windows 8 computer to your HP Deskjet 2540 All-in-One Printer. I would like to assist you today with resolving this wireless printing issue. Because you are able to scan without issues, and are able to print from other devices perfectly fine I do not believe that this is a networking issue, or a software and driver conflict between your Windows computer and your printer. Rather, I believe that there is a wireless printing port (WSD Port) conflict occuring on your computer. Can I please have you follow the steps below to resolve this issue. Microsoft has released a Hotfix to correct printing issues within the Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 Operating Systems. This includes 'Partial Printing' and 'Printer Offline' issues. The printing issues appear to affect networked printers regardless of make or model and is a conflict with the WSD Network Port on Windows 8.1. Please click here to download and run a Microsoft Fix It Tool. Once the website opens for the Hotfix please click the button for 'Hotfix Download Available'. Please follow the onscreen prompts to install the Hotfix. Once the Hotfix has been loaded please test wireless printing again. If printing fails you may need to restart your computer for the Hotfix to take affect. Once your computer comes ON test wireless printing to confirm that the issue has been resolved.
Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. I look forward to hearing from you. Good luck!

OfficeJet 8500 Printer attached to Windows XP system via USB prints partial pages

I have an OfficeJet 8500 printer stationed at the desk of one of my users and is attached to her Windows XP system with a USB cable. The printer has started to print partial pages and will not complete a full page of text or images, color or black and white.
I have attempted to reset the printer by removing power from the printer via the power cord, and holding # and 6 while turning the printer on (after reconnecting the power cord, of course). The alignment process took place after this procedure, but it has not resolved the issue.
I have not yet upgraded the firmware from what was installed at the factory.
What might I do? What am I missing? Do I need to upgrade the installed driver on the system? Is the printer able to be salvaged? It doesn't appear to be hardware, as the portions which print are perfect; I just don't get the entire page.
Thanks in advance,
Rob

The USB to parrallel cable will work just find if you don't mind plugging in the laptop to the printer when required. If you want to modify Win XP to be able to print to an AppleTalk printer follow the instructions below.
"To install AppleTalk protocol to Windows XP
Required files: (Get them from any system running Windows 2000 Professional or Server)
netatlk.inf, sfmatalk.sys, sfmmon.dll, sfmatmsg.dll, sfmwshat.dll, sfmpsprt.dll
If they can not be found you need to unhide hidden and system files.
Copy the files to their respective places:
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\INF\netatlk.inf
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\sfmatalk.sys
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\SYSTEM32\sfmatmsg.dll
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\SYSTEM32\sfmmon.dll
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\SYSTEM32\sfmwshat.dll
C:WINDOWS(WINNT)\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\PRTPROCS\W32X86\sfmpsprt.dll
AppleTalk Protocol should now be available under the list of Protocols you can add in Network Connections - Local Area Connections Properties
This is only good using AppleTalk printers attached to the network. The AppleTalk printer will show up, if it's turned on, under Add Printer-Local printer attached to this computer - create a new port - AppleTalk Printing devices.
For more info see: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/s agadd_appletalkport.mspx (you do not need to capture the port for the printer to work)
If you can not get access to these files, make your email address visable in your user profile and I will send them to you."

Only printing partial pages

I have the Photosmart c4795. I installed it wirelessly and it would only print partial pages. I contacted HP and followed the e-mail instructions to delete and reinstall the software. It is still only printing partial pages. Note that when I reinstalled it I did not install it wirelessly.

I'm having the same problem happens nearly all the time. I am using Picasa on a Macbook Pro and an HP C309A series printer. I'm running Lion OS and the drivers are supposedly incorporated into the OS there are no more firmware updates. We're all current - only started happening after I installed Lion.
I'm NOT IMPRESSED and will look for a NON-HP solution if HP can't come up with a solution!

Officejet 4500 prints partial pages

My Officejet 4500 started printing partial pages. I have tried unpluging it, and reloading it. It will not complete an alinement.

Hey @ACHO ,
Thank you for taking the time to post on the HP Forums today! Hope you enjoy the experience.
I understand you are experiencing partial prints from your Officejet 4500. In my experience this means either the top or the bottom of the page is being cut off and not printed.
Here is a document that addresses that issue. Printed Text is Cut Off at the Top or Bottom of the Page
Hope this helps! Have a great day!
I worked for HP.

Ever since Firefox did an update I have printing problems. Prints partial pages and spreads out over several sheets. I use Mac OS X 10.4.11

Pdf prints last page mirrored and upsidedown

Last year, my old tower Mac (OSX10.7.X) suddenly began printing out the last page (only) of any PDF with an odd number of pages inverted in both vertical and horizontal axes (i.e. upside down mirror-writing), when doing double-sided printing on our HP Color Laserjet CP4005dn. Single sided printing from the same Mac and PDF worked fine. The same last page also prints correctly if I simply chose to print that page alone. I do not have the 'flip horizontal' checkbox ticked. I could find no solution.
I bought an iMac 27" late 2013 with OSX 10.9.4, all upgrades installed. I still have the same problem. I repeat, this only happens in double-sided printing (selected 'long edge binding' under Layout) of the last page of a PDF with odd-numbered pages. Word docx and other documents print just fine from the same computer and printer with same settings in the Print dialogue.
Any suggestions?

Well, it's time to ask Adobe for help... Probably some preference file corrupted or similar...
On the other hand, personally, I would be trying some generic maintenance right now -
Reset Printing System:
OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
Startup from Recovery partition (or any other bootable drive) and repair the disk drive using Disk Utility:
(read just the 1st paragraph About Recovery from this)
OS X: About OS X Recovery
consider downloading and re-updating using the COMBO updater (this isn't from Software Update/App Store):
OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 Update (Combo)
(or similar for Lion)
OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo)

HP5610 printing partial page (intermittent problem)

My HP5610 sometimes prints only a partial page. It begins printing, but about halfway through the page the print head simply continues to go back and forth in the same position. It does not advance. I have to cancel printing.
This is an intermittent problem. Sometimes it prints the whole page.
It has been a great machine and I hate to give it up.
Anyone have an idea what the problem might be?

Reader 8.1.2 still cannot print landscape pages

Hi,
AR 8.1.2 still doesn't print landscape pages correctly - the pages are printed as portrait exactly like in topic for AR8.1.1:
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3c0604d8/3
I'm using Suse Linux Destkop, with cups version cups-1.1.23-40.35.
The printouts are correct using another pdf software (or printed via command line).

Hello Stefan,
I believe you are trying to print a PDF with pages in landscape orientation by choosing the "Landscape" radio in the print dialog. Is that correct?
Could you check if the printer you are printing to supports Custom media size? (You could do that by looking at the printer options at http://localhost:631). You would not face the problem you mention if you try configuring your printer with a different driver (say which supports custom media size, unless the feature is not supported by your printer itself).
As a workaround try choosing the "Portrait" radio button in the print dialog and selecting the "Auto Rotate and Center" checkbox. This should give you the expected results.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Neha

Firefox prints partial pags from web why on left side only?

When I want to print a page from the web, Firefox prints only 2-3 inches on left side of page.
I can print e-mail OK.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== 7-20-10

'''"I can print e-mail OK. "'''
Web mail through Firefox, or using a different email program?
See this:
[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problems_printing_web_pages#Prints_to_a_small_portion_of_the_page]
Also, check the margin setting in File > Page Setup. An excessively large right margin setting can cause something like that.

Printer only prints partial page

I have all new ink cartridges but when I try to print a page, I only get the top half and then it fades away or I get nothing but a few streaks. I ran clean printhead, clean ink smear and align printer but that didn't help.

Hi kay567, Can you print a quality report. Make sure that plain white U.S. letter or A4 size paper is loaded in the tray.From the control panel home screen, touch the Right Arrow (), and then touch the Setup icon ().Touch Tools, and then touch Clean Printhead. The printer cleans the printhead, and then prints a test page.Review the print quality on the test page.Are all of the colours present on the report? Is there streaking, missing colour or text? If so some of the additaionl steps in this document here may help resolve your issue. Please let me know how you get on. Many Thanks,Francheska

PDF prints last page corrupt

I have this issue sometimes, not everytime and not on every PDF but the last page on small PDF files or the last few pages on larger PDF files just come out corrput.
If I re-print these last pages they then print fine.
I have found a workaround where I send the document to print as an image and this seems to work fine but I would like to get to the bottom of whats going on with this pringin the last page corrupt.
Someone else must have had this issue.
Cheers Daniel.

PDFs print blank page with URL on top

Whenever I try to print a PDF from within Safari XP 4.0.4, I get a blank page with just the URL on the top line and page 1 of 1 on the bottom. I don't know if it's different when I click the printer icon or go to file/print. Help?

Just doublechecking. Are other PDFs currently printing properly for you, George? (Say, if you're printing them directly from your Reader as opposed to printing them through Safari's Adobe PDF plugin?)

Envy 4507 - printing partial pages

I've just got this printer and having a torturous experience trying to print out a PDF document. It printed the whole thing but random pages were merged. I then tried to parint these pages individually...some do, some it only prints half a page and stops in the printer. I have reinstalled software, turned the compter off and on, used the doctor, used the usb and wireless... Doctor says all is ok... I'm using windows 10. I am on page 33 of a 67 page document and have a pile of papers I cannot use and have been at it for at least two hours so far... Any advice would be appreciated...

I am having the same relative problem... We are trying to print from Microsoft Publisher 2010. It gets about half way through the first page and stops. It is hung on the "Now Printing" with the spinning circle. Every minute or two, you can hear the printer jot down a couple lines than stops again. After about 5 minutes it spits out the rest of the pages blank.
I've done the first two recommendations; Plugged it directly into the wall and downloaded and ran the Print and Scan Doctor. No errors were given to me and it says everything is fine.
Pages come out perfectly fine when I run the test pages and print from Microsoft Word 2010. Is there something wrong with Publisher and HP working together?
Thanks for your help.
Update: I found a printer USB cord and tried this, because I thought maybe the wireless was dropping out on me. This didn't work either. I decided to use a work around by saving the file as a PDF. I successfully printed the Publisher work through Adobe Reader.
It's definitely a Microsoft Publisher issue (at least for me). I'll see if maybe it's not up to date, but otherwise, this may be an issue that pops up again for other users. Best of luck, and thanks for the previous post. I'm keeping the Doctor application and leaving it plugged into the wall so I can eliminate any other future issues.
