Acrobat Standard Won't print first 1/2 page of scanned document

I have a previously unseen problem. I've had the program for a few years, but now it won't print the top half of the first page of a scanned document (some of them). I tried to print something I scanned a few weeks ago, and it works fine. That one's also in color. The ones that won't print fully are black and white. Any ideas?

You're going to think this is impossible, but the problem only seems to occur with a couple of particular documents I was scanning. I tried deleting the file, rescanning and resaving, then printing with the same 1/2 page result. I tried scanning, saving, and printing a couple of sample documents (thinking I would send one of these to you), and there was no problem! After multiple attempts with the problem document, I fed it through the document feder backwards, and then it scanned, saved, and printed with no problem.
I'm using a Brother MFC-J6710DW printer, Windows XP Pro, Acrobat Standard 7.0. I've actually tried to update Acrobat, without success for some reason. The actual problem document is too sensitive for me to send out. I'd like to hear ideas, in case this repeats.
Thank you.

Acrobat CS3 won't print through XServe print server

Acrobat CS3 won't print through our XServe print server when connected by AppleTalk. Everything else prints fine. You can print the same .pdf with AppleTalk through Preview. And you can print with Acrobat through any other protocol but AppleTalk. The job spools, looks like it's going through but never reaches it's destination. We have 19 printers so it's not a single printer being cranky, and 35 Macs so it's not just a single Mac. All our users are on Active Directory and all are on the same subnet and VLAN.

Hello Scott,
If you look at the cups error log on the Xserve, does it give any clues as to why the Acrobat spool file is failing? Hopefully there is some indication as to which process is failing and why.
We're not using AppleTalk on our Xserve. All printer connections are set via LPR so I cannot offer any advice based on experience.

I have a MacBook Air (10.8.2) connected to Canon MP530 printer. I'm unable to scan documents as MP Navigator is not supported. Any ideas on how to scan using this printer.

I have a MacBook Air (10.8.2) connected to a Canon MP530 printer. I am unable to scan documents as it appears my Mac does not support MP Navigator. Any ideas? I have made an inquiry to Canon but have not received any answers yet.

Why do you say your MBA won't support it? MP Navigator for OS X 8 and the MP530 is available here.

How can I have a standard text block appear on the last page of my documents?

How can I have a standard text block appear on the last page of my documents without having to type it in all the time? I have a terms statement with a line for a customer’s signature which I want on the last page of my invoices and right now I have to type it in each time or cut and paste it from a previous invoice. I already have a Master Page that includes the customer information and my company information at the top of each page and I am using data merge to fill each page with the items ordered and their pictures etc. I would just like to have this standard terms block automatically show up on the last page after the last item in the data merge.
Thank you all in advance for your help.

Thank you Peter. This works. I have the text block now at the bottom of a second master page which I apply to the last page. For aesthetics I can modify the position of the text block in the new master page to bring it up from the bottom under the last item ordered when there is less than 4 items on the page. (my data merge fits up to 4 items with their images on a page). If the last page is full I’ll insert a final page using the second master and also bring it up to the top of the page.

LaserJet 1020 won't print first document after powering up

My LaserJet 1020 won't print the first document it receives after powering-up. Print manager shows that the document is being sent, the printer makes noise like it's getting ready to print, but the document is never printed and I don't receive an error messages. If I send the document again the document prints as does every document there after.
I'm using Windows Vista Professional and the printer is connected via USB 2.0.

Hi jnickelsen,
I understand the printer won't print multiple copies.
Thank you for your reply.
I will be happy to help you with this.
This printer doesn't have the Mopier settings.
What drivers are you using?
Did you download the drivers or are you using the Windows preinstalled drivers?
If you are using the Windows preinstalled drivers then I would download the latest drivers. Here is the URL for the HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver.
I would download and run the Print and Scan Doctor since it might resolve the issue automatically.

Hope this helps.

Acrobat X Pro Only Prints First Page

I have several multipage PDFs that I am trying to print to my HP LaserJet 5si MX. I am on OS X 10.6.5 with all the latest updates applied. When printing, only the first page prints and then the printer queue clears as though the whole document printed.
The PDFs print fine in their entirety from Preview. I tried Reader 7.0.7 which also works fine.
Reader X has the same problem as Pro.
I checked for update printer drivers, but they are included with OS X and HP has no updates.
Thanks for any help!

I have had the same experience. My HP 4050 reported "Insufficient memory" after printing the first page. The PDF was created with Acrobat Pro X by combining PDFs sent as attachments. The file is 238 KB, and is printed without difficulty using Acrobat Pro 9.

Acrobat Reader won't print

I installed OS 10.6 and now 10.6.1. Acrobat Reader 8 wouldn't print. Installed Acrobat Reader 9. Won't print. Canon MP530 printer gives this error message: "Unable to open raster stream. No such file or directory." No problem previously, with 10.5 and Acrobat Reader 8.

Solved my own problem; read the solution here:

Hope it works for all of you with different printers. The issue seems to be in the printer drivers, though.

Acrobat 9pro won't print to PDF

I am using Acrobat 9pro on my Windows XP x64 computer. When I use Acrobat and try to print to PDF I get the error messages "The document could not be printed." and "There were no pages selected to print." I can, however, print to PDF from other applications such as Word. This problem started suddenly a few months ago after having used the application fine for a year or two. The technical support person told me they wouldn't help me unless I paid $35 to upgrade to Acrobat 10! I'm at a loss.

I'm having this problem too. Acrobat 9.5.3 running on Win 7 x64. After updating Reader form X to XI, Acrobat stopped printing .
I've tried everything: repairing installation, complete installation, removing all the package, removing reader and acrobat, update printers driver, reinstall printers... nothing worked.
Now the only way I have to print is using Reader, that works properly.
This are the dialog boxes coming up: "Document can't be printed" "There were no selected pages to print". I can't have access to the printer setup window too, I guess this is connected to the same issue.
Thank you for your help

Word 2004 won't print individual or last pages

When printing a document in Word, the programme has just started missing the last page of docs with 2 or more pages, and won't print any single page documents. Even double sided with an even number of pages it misses the last page on the back of the second last.
It says it is going to the printer, and the printer detects some data coming in, but then prints nothing. My work around is putting a blank page at the end of each doc, but this is annoying and cumbersome.
This has only just started happening. Having searched for answers here and other forums, I couldn't find a solution.
Have tried taking off collation, printing only page ranges, current page, and have looked in all the settings to no avail. This happens with both Kyocera printers (one is new, the other did not have this problem before, and all other appications work fine, making me think it is the application)
Has anyone encountered this problem before?
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks from Downunder,
Chris

Hi Chris -
The first things to be sure of are a) that you have the most current updates for the version of Word you are using, and b) that you have the latest print driver available.
If you have recently updated Word/Office and-or OS X, you may need to reinstall the printer driver even if it is current.

PDF won't print beyond a certain page.

I have sent a 52 page pdf to a client created in Adobe InDesign. They have tried printing it, and it won't print beyond page 23, on multiple printers. I am able to print all pages at home, so I don't know if the problem is somewhere in the pdf's setup, or the clients printers. Has anyone run into this issue before? Thank you for any suggestions.

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* Open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
Please report back with your report.

Acrobat Standard X and Printing Issues

I recently installed X on my system. I was super excited until I hit the print button. I made absolutely no changes to the print settings, yet my pdf has been shrunk to fit on half a page as well as rotated. In addition, one pdf page now prints two sheets of paper. One as described before, the other blank.
Here are my current settings
-windows 7 (64 bit)
-xerox phaser 6360 dn ps
-acrobat x
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling numerous times, adobe and the printer. As well as rolling back versions. No luck.
Any ideas, thanks.

Hi Guys,
Had the same problem at a client site and it was driving me crazy. Turns out that its a very simple fix. Under Preferences in the General tab, take a tick out of Enable Protected Mode at startup.
Once I did that on all client computers they printed fine to all printers.
Hope that helps some people.
Cheers

Acrobat 8 Won't Print - AGAIN! Need Help!

I'm running Acrobat 8 on Windows 7 64 bit. When I installed, I also installed that dll file you need, set it to print to file, everything worked fine for 2 months. This morning, I wake up, go to print a pdf, no go. I remembered that it updated about 2 days ago, so I remove the program, reinstall, nothing. Tried disconnecting and reconnecting my printer, nothing. This software is expensive and it only creates headaches for me. Does someone know how to fix this? I have work to do today. Thanks

You are trying to print a PDF opened in AA8 to what? Have you updated AA8 to the latest update? The canned answer is that AA8 is not certified for Win7 (particularly x64) and you would need to upgrade. However, several folks have AA8 running with Win7 and think some of those are X64. More information about the printer and the subversion of Acrobat would help. AA 8 is currently at 8.3.1.

Acrobat X won't print

When I restart my computer I can print a pdf doc. But the second or third time I try, I get a blank screen instead of a print dialog. If I restart the computer, I get one shot again. I have the latest updates. This happens regardless where the pdf doc originates (e.g. quickbooks, word, etc...) Help, please!

pleasure: if you open the file in Acrobat Pro and save as, that sometimes does the trick as well. (if it does then its a better solution)

My MG5220 won't print an original 3 page document from rear tray.

I have only recently had trouble printing original documents from rear tray. I have completed maintenance ( cleaning), checked paper media, etc. I have checked page set-up, etc. I think I am overlooking something that is obvious but I can't see the forest for the trees. Please advise. Thanks!

Hi Kashmie,
To try and resolve the issue, with a flashlight or other bright light, please check the paper feed area of the printer and verify that there are no paper jams or obstructions in the printer that may be causing the paper not to feed. Once this has been done, please look inside of the printer where the inks are located and ensure that there are no obstructions in there that may be causing the print head not to move freely. Next, please remove and reseat all of the ink tanks in the printer. Once all of these steps have been performed, if you still experience difficulty, please call or email us at one of the methods on the Contact Us page for further assistance.
