10.5.5 and quickbooks (and other printing issues!)

ever since installing 10.5.5 i've been having printing issues... like many people are reporting, my InDesign prints at about 400%... i can get around that by exporting PDFs and then printing those.
but, one serious bug i'm having is that my Quickbooks invoices are defaulting to landscape mode in the printer and it can't be changed... even if i export a PDF it's in landscape mode.
help help..!

>Looks like the only change that I can tell is that the media selection now makes the forced to Colorsync setting choose the profile (in the driver) that is set for that media in CU.
I think I was wrong in that statement it looks like 10.5.5 works the same way.

  • Color LaserJet 3800 Printing Issues

    I am in the process of upgrading our desktop computers to Windows 7 Pro (x64). In preparation for this we setup a new print server running Windows Server 2008 R2 and created new print queues for each of the printers on our old Windows 2003 server, installed curent drivers for each, and thought that all would be good.
    The issue I am seeing is that our users who are printing to an HP Color LaserJet 3800 are getting letter spacing issues where some letters are crushed together and others are too widely spaced (see example above). I can print the same document to an HP Color LaserJet 3600 everything looks correct.
    I have verified that the print server has the HP Color LaserJet 3800 driver that comes with Windows Server 2008 R2 and that the other printer is running the HP Color LaserJet 3600 driver. These are both probably the ones available through Windows Update. Finally, we have tested a solution where the Universal Print driver is intalled locally and that seems to work fine. However, I don't want to have drivers individually installed if I can help it.
    Any ideas here?

    This seems to be a commercial printer. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support.
    You may find the Commercial Laserjet board here.

  • Nakisa OrgChart V3.0 SP1: Printing Issues

    Hi,
    We're using Nakisa OrgChart VSN30 SP1.
    We have a few issues about printing:
    1. Tiling. When I go to tile a large Org Chart, even though Nakisa shows the page separator lines and no margins u2013 each page does have a margin cuts out portions of the printed Org Chart. 
    2. Font for "printing/Header" and "ChartBook/Cover or Head". "Calibri" is our company's Standard font but not included in the font choices in Nakisa.
    BTW, the sector of Print and Export in Nakisa's Help Document for OrgChart VSN30 SP1 has different screenshots of "Basic Print Wizard" from what we have.
    Thanks,
    Hongling

    Hongling,
    Just to add that I had a client on 3.0 who did some very extensive testing of printing and exporting.  They too had issues using tiling that have been confirmed as not present in SP2.  I can't say for sure if your issue is or not without trying. 
    Is SP2 an option for you at this point?
    If not, then OSS seems the only way to go. 
    If SP2 is an option, then it is worth considering but you might want to seek some assurance about whether this issue is resolved first.
    Regards,
    Stephen
    P.s. By the way, did you get anywhere resolving your other print issue "different printers"? I notice it is still open on this forum.

  • Archive & Install, now printing issues

    Hi all,
    I have two printers: an HP6110 AllinOne, and an Epson Stylus Photo 1200. I recently performed an archive and install of my system, and then Software Update updated my system to OS10.4.11 (it was 10.4.10 before the archive and install).
    There are two parts to my current problems.
    1. The original Epson driver does not work anymore. (Version 1.29 is what I have, can't find anything later.) The CUPS/Gutenprint driver does work but doesn't access all the features of my Epson printer. So, what that means is that the color calibration settings I have for the Epson driver are no longer accessible. I need to be able to print color that is correct and calibrated to my monitor color.
    2a. Printing a page to the HP6110 off the internet results in a blank page being spit out, followed by a page that is cut off at the top, meaning only the bottom half of the page is printed on the paper. I have tested this printing from FireFox and Safari.
    Page setup seems normal.
    The HP driver version is 2.7.2. I have tried to download from the HP site but it always times out, so I don't know if I have the latest driver or not. (I think it's something with my firewall settings, but I haven't been able to figure it out. One thing at a time.)
    An internet page prints normally when sent to the Epson, but the HP is my workhorse printer. The Epson can do large format, so I usually keep large paper in it and just use it for that and for color correct printing. (Greg S., if you're out there, I tried to download the HP driver from OpenPrint with no luck.)
    2b. Although I can print to the HP6110, the color looks terrible--all washed out. I will admit that I have not gone into Adobe Bridge yet to see if my color settings survived the Archive and Install. So that may fix it for my Adobe apps. Word docs are not the same as they were, but not as badly off as the Adobe docs.
    Thanks, Folks! --D

    Update: Re Issue 2b: I checked the color settings in Adobe Bridge for my Adobe apps. They are all set to my original settings, using the calibrated profiles, so all is well there.
    I have been reading about other printing issues and may try some of those solutions offered:
    1. unplug everything for a while--although why this would solve it who knows? Crazy! But easy, so worth a try.
    2. download and reinstall the 10.4.11 update from the Apple web site, instead of running it via Software Update.
    3. reinstall OS10.4.x from the original disks and then download updates only through when you could last print, 10.4.9 or 10.4.10.
    I will post my results!

  • I have upgraded to Pages 5.0.1 and now I cannot print or pass along "comments" in the text of a document. I previously was able to convert the Pages document, with comments, to a "Word" document so that others could view the edited text. How do I do that?

    When you installed Pages v5, it automatically moved the older Pages ’09 v4.3 into /Applications/iWork '09 folder. If you want normal comment interoperability, you are advised to resume using the older version of Pages. Newer, is certainly not better with Pages v5.

    I would suggest you to uninstall Adobe Reader using the cleaner tool and then re-install the latest version.

  • When I am merging a Pages document, the header and graphic is only printing on every other page?

    I have make a Merge file from Pages.  When I go to print this, the Header and Graphic is only printing on every other page.  Can anyone advise?

    That is very hard to follow.
    We have no idea what you are merging, nor what header or graphic you are referring to as we can not see the document.
    My guess is that you are talking about something like a letterhead which has a logo and address only on the first page and none on the following pages.
    Each merge is probably running over the 1st page and onto a following blank page. If you want the "Header and Graphic" to appear on subsequent pages as well then you will need to create master pages/objects for the following pages to suit.
    This is how you go about doing it for a standard letterhead and follower:
    http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewtopic.php?t=182&highlight=letter head&mforum=iworktipsntrick
    Just add the graphics to the follower pages as well.

  • Change default and other printer presets

    I recently had to Refresh the printer's connection with my Wireless Router and laptop and (with help from HP tech support, thank you!) that was successful.  Now, however, when I click File, Print (while in a document) I no longer have the print options I had before.  I need to be able to choose Black and White, Normal, and Color (both normal and draft).   Can you provide the steps required to create new print options?  Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Follow the steps below to change the print settings:
    1. From the application used to print, click the File menu and select Print. The Print window appears.
    NOTE: The Print window might be minimized: Click the Show Details button to see all available settings.
    2. To access the color options, click the lowest selection box listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
    Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.
    3. Select Paper Type/Quality from the drop-down menu.
    4. Click the triangle next to Color Options to expend the settings.
    5. Set the Color field as Grayscale.
    6. Set the Grayscale Mode as Black Ink Cartridge Only.
    7. The Print Quality option will also appear under the same Paper Type/Quality  menu.
    Change any settings as required, then save the settings by clicking Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset...
    Repeat the same for any required configuration.

  • Full ink cartridges​, test page prints in colour but any other printing is black and white

    I've replaced low ink cartridges cyan and magenta, not empty, and despite the test page printing colour, any other printing is in black and white. 
    I chosen to print in colour when given the option.

    Hello jonnyken,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I see that you are unable to print color from your Chromebook to your Officejet 6700, but it will print color test pages and the inks are full. I would like to offer a Thread that has some great suggestions in it for this issue.

  • Headings and other print run into each other and I cnnot see all the print in some boxes on vrious web sites. I have removed and re-installed more than once.

    copy on the web pages overlap.....headlines appear over other print.....link tabs are on top of each other. I have removed and re-installed Firefox many times. This does not happen with other browsers. Also, some web sites show sections that are off center.

    Hi,
    Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox%20prints%20pages%20in%20a%20different%20layout this]. If the site has a Print button/icon you can try to use that. On some sites you can also try to right-click the content > '''This Frame''' > '''Print frame'''.

    I have a macbook pro with OSX 10.5.8.  How do I upgrade to Mountain Lion when it is available?  I need to upgrade to run quickbooks and other apps

    First, you need Snow Leopard (10.6): http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A. Then you use Software Update to update it to 10.6.8. When Mountain Lion (10.8) comes out, find it in the Mac App Store.

    You didn't mention any color calibration being done on your monitor.  This is an essential part of any color-correct workflow.  What are you using to calibrate your monitor (and your printer)?
    Print profiles (for soft-proofing as well as printing) are for specific combinations of paper & printer.  The nine you have are each, most likely, for a common paper (perhaps mfr'd by Canon) to be used with your printer.
    I don't know what you mean when you say "I choose a high standard print option".
    Have you read the User Manual chapter on printing?
    Printing Your Images
    There is also a good appendix on calibration:

  • Printer aligns BUT only with Black and Blue all other diagnostics print with all colours

    Initially when installed the printer REFUSED to align, took 7 attempts (OK I have heard of Einsteins quote !). Each time I used the printer screen to ALIGN PRINTER - the process failed. So I looked on the web, and:
    Cleaned the cartridges,
    Cleared the vents
    Removed and cleaned the printhead
    Prayed
    Tried again
    All to no avail, so then I tried doing the diagnostics via the PC software, and here the mystery deepened.
    When running the HP Photosmart B210 Series tool box I got three differing results from the three printing options
    A Print Quality Diagnostics Page gave me Ba full five colour printout
    Align Printheads gave me black and blue lies/boxes/grids and the Alignement Successful message
    Print Diagnostic info gave me all four colours with lots of meaningful info including the 73 Print head Calibration COnfidence Level:0
    Any Ideas ANYONE, before I bin this and buy a Kodak or Epson in disgust
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    What exactly is the issue?  The alignment aligns the color printhead to black printhead, and only one color (cyan for your printer) and black are needed for that.  (There is likely an additional set of blocks that prints gray blocks fading to white.  This section is used to calibrate the energy for the colors.)  The other test pages you printed will print various diagnostic or test pages which will use all the colors. 
    A successful alignment page requires the page be printed on unused white paper and requires that the black and cyan sections are printing properly.

  • Printing Issues with HP OfficeJet 100 and Windows 8.1

    We use HP OfficeJet 100 mobile printers and have a printing issue.When we print the printer acts as if it is going to print and then prints one blank page.Printer will not print even though it is showing as default printer.Printer will just stop printing in the middle of a document, even in the middle of printing out a page. We are printing via the USB cableWe are using Windows 8.1We are connecting to laptopsWe have been using the HP mobile range of printers since 2004 and have only experienced these issues since we moved the laptops onto Windows 8/8.1 We have:Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer drivers – this fixed this issue for a short while and then it reappeared againCalled HP support and they directed us to the driver support page which had the latest print drivers, uninstalled and reinstalled drivers with them on the phone. This initially fixed the problem and then it returned a few days laterAfter trawling the support forums found directions to change the print processor to “WinPrint” – No effect as the processor was already on this settingDownloaded the HP diagnostic tool – HP Print and Scan Doctor – didn’t fix anything Any further help would be much appreciated.

    Hello there Lawrence, Welcome to the Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience
    I noticed your post about the troubles you are running into when you attempt to install your OJ 6100 printer on your Windows 8.1 laptop. I read all of your attempts and seen you have tried several methods to try and get the installation to complete successfully.
    I would like to make some suggestions that may help. Let me know how it goes!
    1. Check that Internet Explorer pop-up blockers are turned off before downloading the installer
    Internet Explorer Pop-up Blocker: How do I turn off Pop-up Blocker?
    Try to install
    2. If you're running McAfee Live Safe or any other firewall, please temporarily disable the "real time scanning".
    How to disable realtime scans
    Try the install
    3. Go to the start screen (you may also press the windows key + R to open the run box) and type %WINDIR% this should show the windows folder.
    Click on the folder and scroll until you see files. Look for a filed named "HPWINS*.DAT" (the * is for a number that varies) remove this file and try the installation.
    Try the install
