Show events in label colors when printing

I've been doing my carpool schedule using iCal - each person has their own calendar so they always appear in the same color and can subscribe to just their calendar.
I used to print out a copy to put on the fridge, and each event would be printed in the color of that person's label.
I just upgraded to Tiger (10.4, yeah, i'm behind) and now iCal only prints a little color swatch next to the BLACK text of each event. This makes it much more difficult to see at a glance who has carpool since you can' just tell the color of the enter text from across the room, you have to get up close and either read the black text or squint and try to tell the color of the little line.
Is there a way to put it back to how iCal 1.5 did it?
PS - I'm printing in month view, if that makes a difference.

Is the calendar checked in the list of calendars in the popup menu in the upper left corner?

Why do graphics and colors that appear on the monitor show up as blank spaces when printed out

Graphics (especially color) on emails and attachments show up as BLANK spaces when printed out.
Also, some color graphics and detail work of those graphics on familiar websites do not show up on my monitor
Both of these situations DO NOT occur on Explorer. With that browser - everything is OK

it may have worked, but gimping my system isn't exactly a solution, more of a band-aid.
its the equivalent of the old
patient says, " its hurts when i do *this* "
doctor replies," well, don't do that "
What do you mean "it may have worked" – did it or did it not?
Anyway it is not a remedy but diagnostics and if it makes a difference it points at the GPU driver as a likely culprit.

How do i get my events to change colors when i add new ones in my calendar

How do I get my events to change colors when I add a new event in my calendar?

When you add an event and you see the heading "Calendar", do you see a name to the right of it such as "Work"? If you tap on the heading "Calendar" does it show you a list of calendars?
I'm basing this on my experience using iCal on a Mac to sync with my iPad. I created a number of calendars on the Mac and assigned them different colors. Those appear on my iPad. I don't know how to create additional calendars on the iPad alone - I must create them in iCal or MobileMe then they show up on the iPad. Are you using a Mac or MobileMe?

Different Colors when printing from Photoshop and InDesign CS3

Different Colors when printing from Photoshop and InDesign CS3
I have the following problem:
When printing from Photoshop or InDesign to a PostScript printer, Adobe recommends to let Photoshop handle the colors (I use the German version, so I don't know the exact term used, it changes slightly in all CS3 apps anyway).
The manufacturer however told me to let the PostScript printer handle the colors.
When I chose this option in Ps's print dialog and then choose ISO Coated as the printer pfofile, the results are fine.
But when I place the exact same image in an InDesign file and print from InDesign or export to PDF and print via Acrobat, again using "Printer handles colors", the results are the exact same as if I had used Ps and chosen to let Ps handle the colors (way too saturated and a bit too red).
·Photoshop CS3
·InDesign CS3
·Test image is a TIFF in CMYK Fogra 27 Coated (which is also the working color space in Ps and ID.
·Printer: Xerox Docucolor 3535
·Printer profile: ISO Coated
How can I make sure the printer handles the colors in other CS3 apps than Ps? I tried it with ID's print dialog (translated from the German version: Color Management > Options > Color Handling: PostScript-printer decides colors).
Thanks a lot!

RE: "You don't indicate what Xerox printers you have"
In my first post I named it, is that the information you need?
Docucolor 3535 using Splash 3535
That's interesting, so I have to find a way to turn off the printer's Color Management function? I mailed them, hope they can tell me how to do it easily. They usually just tell me to not use any profiles and so on, but that's the general rule in this area, I'm really tired of hearing it. Everybody seems to think profiles and LAB mode are nuclear science and I should stay away from it.
Anyway, the test image I'm using is a simple photograph (size A3, 300dpi), so no transparencies at all. I'm placing this image into an equally large ID file and print it from ID, then export it to PDF-X/3 and print it from Acrobat. Hope that helps.

All Day Events shift order randomly when printing!

When trying to print in month view, my all day events shift order within their day in a seemingly random way. This is a problem because I want certain all day events to line up next to each other day after day in a specific color coded way. This has been impossible for me to accomplish because for some reason what the month view looks like is never what the preview or printing looks like. Is it possible to lock the position of all day events so they print as they appear in month view?

I'm having the same problem only not just when printing. My All-Day events (which I use more as notes than actual events) switch places all the time and I can't make any sense out of it. I thought it had to do with alphabetical order, but that's not it, then I thought it had to do with the order I typed them, but that's not it either. It's particularly annoying when I have two days with multiple identical events and yet they don't have the same order. There's got to be a way to order them manually, but if there isn't, Apple should add it quickly.

Wrong colors when printing to HP Colorlaser Jet 4550 PCL 5c

I just upgraded from Labview 5.1.1 to Labview 6.1 on a Windows 95 Compaq Notebook. All the plot colors in 8 plot XY Graph indicator printed correctly on our network HP Colorlaser Jet 4550 PCL 5c using Labview 5.1.1. When I print the graph in Labview 6.1, sometimes some of the plot colors in the graph are wrong. In fact one of the plot switches color about 2/3 of the way across the X-axis. What is really weird is that the plot colors always print correctly in the legend. The VI prints the graph programically, but I also get the same inconsistent results when I copy the XY Graph to a new VI and use the print window comand in the file menu.
In my Labview preferences I use standard printing with colors and di
thering is turn on. The colors are correct when I programically save the front panel to either bmp, jpeg, or png files.
What causing this strange behavior?

Greg,
Thanks for your suggestion; however, it did not solve the problem. I set the line thickest to the maximum. Then I tried with and without dithering. The results were still inconsistent. Sometimes I got the correct colors; othertimes, some plots had the wrong colors. I attached two gif files as examples. The first shows the correct colors. The second shows that the 1st plot is yellow instead of blue. Also the 4th plot is green instead of red for the 1st 80% of the plot. Then it switches to the correct color, red. I have other graphs with different plots with the wrong colors. Notice that the colors in the legend are always correct.

Issues w/ color when printing with a layered background

Hello,
I have designed a page in Illustrator that was intended for the web, and now the company wants print outs for a trade show.
I have a multi-layered background, and when printing off a laser printer, the greys are awful and streaky. I have a feeling it's because I've got dark grey layered over light grey over green (see pic), but what can I do to fix it? The client wants the background this way, but I'm not sure about the mechanics of it, I just know that it looks awful when printed.
Thanks for any help!
Jen

It's going to be tough to match the RGB work you've done for the web and laser printers are a challenge. You might have to rebuild the file or convert the colors to CMYK. The grays will probably be the easy part ( 20%, 45% ), but the dark greenish blue will have to be remixed ( i.e., 100C, 18.5M, 0Y, 51K ). I think you could use the existing elements, but you might have to expand them or divide them. You should avoid layering or overlaying, just work with a flattened .ai file and see if that prints any better. Raster elements, transparency, and layering effects are better handled via a Postscript 3 RIP + PRINTER. If your laser is non-postscript and does not have a RIP ( raster image processor ), then the color will be problematic. If you will be printing the sheets for the tradeshow using the laser, then whatever you mix will be able to be proofed ( by eye, I assume ) internally. If you go outside and use a Kinkos or something, then color should be proofed using a contract proofer at your local prepress shop before sending it out to be printed.

Hi - Go ahead and try the steps in this document. It will walk you through cleaning the contacts on both the cartridge and in the carriage. What can happen over time is ink residue can accumulate on the contacts preventing the ink cartridges from working properly. If this doesn't resolve the issue, try setting the cartridge with the nozzles face down on a damp paper towel for about 45 seconds just to resolve any problems with the ink nozzles.
Hope that helps.

Faded colors when printing from Acrobat - different than previous

Hi
I have read some threads about color fading when printing a PDF created in ID and printed from Acrobat. My problem is the same and I am also having the same problem with PDF's exported from Keynote (client created posters). It sounds like I should work with the PDF optimizer for the solution. Has anyone experienced the fading colors from anything other than ID or Quark made PDF's? Did the optimizer fix the problem? I find it frustrating that I can print directly from ID and not have a problem - why can't they all get along! ;0)
Using Acrobat 9, Keynote 09 and an Epson 9880 printer.
Thanks

Good afternoon. The color is WAY off when printing photos. Am using an HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-One. Colors appear somewhat muted, as well as having too much red and yellow. Have tried adjusting color, but then photo definition is lost. Do photo pixels have anything to do with color quality?

I have exactly the same problem with my hp photosmart c5380. Have you had any sucess with yours as i have tried every thing I can think of without any sucess

How to disable some color when printing separations in Ai CS6-CC (JS)

Hello Everyone!
Configuration: Win 7 Pro x64, Illustrator CS6x64-CCx64, default printer PDF.
When printing separations from Illustrator CS4 following script prints all colors except Cyan (as was intended).
But when printing from CS6-SS disable the color is not possible - all colors are printed without exception.
var adoc = activeDocument;
var o = new PrintOptions();
o.colorSeparationOptions = new PrintColorSeparationOptions();
o.colorSeparationOptions.colorSeparationMode = PrintColorSeparationMode.HOSTBASEDSEPARATION;
o.colorSeparationOptions.inkList = adoc.inkList;
for (var i = 0; i < o.colorSeparationOptions.inkList.length; i++) {
if (o.colorSeparationOptions.inkList[i].name == 'Process Cyan') {
o.colorSeparationOptions.inkList[i].inkInfo.printingStatus = InkPrintStatus.DISABLEINK;
adoc.print(o);
If you check, you have inkInfo.printingStatus Cyan changed to "InkPrintStatus.DISABLEINK".
Why it is printed and how to disable?
Thanks!

How to show masked links in PDF when printing?

Hello
Ive got a PDF where some hyperlinks are masked behind certain words. For digital use of this document this is fine. However when printing I would like to have the full link to be printed (eg as a comment or on top of the word which contains the link). Is there a possibility to do this with Acrobat?
thanks

Hello there,
Thanks for posting. Unfortunately, I'm afraid you're in the wrong forum; this is the forum for questions specific to Acrobat.com (www.acrobat.com), and we are not able to help with questions about other Adobe products and services. If you're using Adobe Reader free software, I recommend posting to the Reader forum, where your questions is more likely to get a helpful response:

No color when printing on pcl5 driver for canon iR 2880i

I have a problem printing from SAP (both sapscript and forms) to Canon iR 2880i using PCL5.
No color is printed, only grayscale and images in forms are also not correctly printed.
I have tried few SAP drivers, delivered by canon and also SAP. (HP color pcl5 drivers)
I did also have the same problem with HP color 3800 printer but there I could solve the problem by using POST2 postscript driver, but the canon printer does not have postscript emulation installed.
I have both tested with access methods C and U but not via sapsprint. Frontend color printing works fine with the printer but I need this for background printing.
So it looks like this is a problem with PCL5 drivers in general.
Can anyone help me with this and give me troubleshooting tips.
Regards
Sindri

Hello Sindri,
We had exactly the same problem with our Canon copiers IRC 2880i. We contacted both Canon and SAP several times without success. No drivers we received from them can print in colors.
What we did to solve our problem:
We installed SAPSPRINT on our print server and configured all printers in SAP with Print method S.
In this case a windows driver is use and we can print in colors on every type of printers.
Please note that if you don't have a print server you can install sapsprint on a simple windows computer and define your Canon 2880i printer on this host.
Best regards,
Olivier Vanderperre

Default color when printing envelopes on Photosmart 309g

When I print envelopes using Microsoft Word, the color of the letters is green. I have tried changing the color selection from automatic to black in the Word program but the color still comes out green. Printing of the Word document does default to black when automatic is selected for the color.

Hi cpolizzi,
Welcome to the HP forums!
I'm sorry to hear you've been having issues printing envelopes with your Photosmart 7520, but I would be happy to have a look into this and make some suggestions.
The first thing I will suggest is that you have a look through this Printing an envelope page from Microsoft that explains how to properly set up the program to print the envelope, including changing print settings.
This How to print to envelopes in Microsoft Word 2013 video below also shows a few things to check as well.
Let me know if anything changes after that

How can I calbrate your program with my screen colors when printing

I need to calbrate adobe acrobat 9 pro to print the colors that show on my screen, How can I do that?

This is a huge subject, and there are whole books on the subject. So this is just a very oversimplified idea.
The idea of calibration is to match everything against what I will call "master colours". Once your monitor is calibrated, software knows how to convert master colours into your monitor colours, and similarly colours for printing can be converted from master colours to printer colours.
But this doesn't make all colours the same. Printers can't print the same colours as you see on a monitor; all of the really bright colours are lost. It may be that if you've calibrated your monitor, that things are already as close as they are going to get.
If the monitor is calibrated, and Windows or Mac OS knows about that, then Acrobat will already be using that information. So the screen should look accurate. Non-PostScript printers will generally try their best to match these colours too without your needing to do anything. That's why I asked if you have a PostScript printer.
