Acrobat won't print, no page selected

Since I upgraded to a new iMac with Mavericks, acrobat (updated to latest version, 10.1.9) won't print anything. I get an error message saying 'the document could not be printed' and then a second message saying 'no pages were selected'. I have tried selecting pages in different ways, and I've tried printing various different pdfs to both my printers (Brother HL2030 and Canon Pro9000). I have the latest drivers on these, which are printing other documents fine, so there's no problem with either the files or the printers.

First let me state that this is my solution on a Macintosh running 10.7.5 and Acrobat Pro X (with all the latest updates).
This problem started for me just this last weekend. I have been to every so-called solution that I could find via a Google search and NONE of these "solutions" even by the self-tagged "experts" work. PERIOD!
I decided to follow one suggestion to install Acrobat Pro 9. However, instead of uninstalling Acrobat Pro X first, I left it installed.
During the initial startup of Acrobat 9 after installation I was offered the option of installing an Extra feature called Adobe PDF Printer which allows me to "Create Adobe PDF files from any application by printing to Adobe PDF Printer". I opted in to that extra.
Once Acrobat Pro 9 had started I tested it using one of the PDF files that had failed to print with the dreaded "No pages selected......" error messages. THE FILE PRINTED AS EXPECTED!
I then decided I would uninstall Acrobat Pro X, but on a whim decided to try to print the same PDF file that had just printed using Acrobat Pro 9 one more time. IT PRINTED!
All I can figure out is that somehow selecting the option to have Acrobat Pro 9 install the option for allowing other applications to create a PDF repaired something within the Mac operating system. Just a guess.
Hope this helps someone.

Won't print last page

Has anyone else had this problem?
HP 5200DTN won't print last page of any document.

I have this same problem and can't figure it out. It started roughly a couple months ago.
I did some testing in Word and found that it would not print the last page if I had a page break in the document, but would print the last page if I removed the page break. However, it also happens often even if the document doesn't have a page break.

Adobe Reader X won't print all pages supposed to; Why Not?

Adobe Reader X won't print all pages supposed to; Why Not?

Similar situation here. Have multiple users getting hung up after the progress bar for printing appears.
If forced to quit, prints do eventually appear sometimes. Here's my app event error:

Eprint won't print web pages

If I send an email my d110a prints, but won't print web pages.

Hey dmorrisp,
Can you pull up your apps? You can try following these steps to resolve your issue.
1. Find your printer's IP address by printing a network configuration page.
2. Type you IP address into the address bar of your web browser.
3. Click on the network tab at the top of the page.
4. Look at the left hand side and click IPv4 under wireless.
5. Change the IP settings to Manual.
6. Enter the printer's IP address, your subnet mask, and your routers IP address or default gateway in the spaces.
7. Set the Preferred DNS to 8.8.8.8.
8. Set the Alternate DNS to 8.8.4.4.
9. Click apply.(You may need to refresh the page if it says processing for longer than a min and click apply again.)
10. Now try to enable Web Services.

If I have resolved your issue, feel free to provide Kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided.

EPrint won't print web pages from Windows 8 Microsoft Surface tablet

ePrint won't print web pages from Windows 8 (x64) Microsoft Surface tablet Any ideas?

Hello JereTanner,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are trying to print web pages from a Surface tablet. What model of printer are you trying to print to? Also, Is there an error, message, etc, when you try to print? Typically, ePrint is used when printing eMails or forwarding documents / pictures to the printers eMail address, is this how you are trying to print the web page? Since this is a Windows 8 Operating System, you may be able to install full feature software and print that way. When I know more about how you are trying to print, what happens when you try and what printer you are using, I will be able to better help. Cheers,

After Update printer won't print to pages but will to emails

My iMac Intel did an update and since it was done my printer won't print for pages but if I print an email it will print.

Update Pages to the most up-to-date version and then restart the computer while resetting the PRAM. If you don't know how to do a PRAM reset, please click Intel iMac SMC and PRAM resets. If that does not fix it then please post back and we can take some other steps.

Document could not be printed - no pages selected to print

I am running into this well-known issue with several documents, but unfortunately none of the fixes I have come across have worked. Some background:
-Using Windows 7 Pro
-Happening with both Adobe Reader XI and Acrobat X, clean installs. and happening on multiple computers, with multiple printers, with multiple domain users.
-Have tried repairing both installations, no success.
-Have tried disabling protected view, changing size of the fit, letting printer determine colors, printing in greyscale, changing setting for "view documents in PDF/A mode" to "never."
-Print as image works, but quality is unacceptable.
-It seems to be isolated mainly to Xerox printers, as I have no issues printing to an HP printer. I am trying different models of Xeroxes with no success, however. I have reinstalled printer driver and verified updated driver for all, issue persists. Printer models are Xerox ColorQube 8700X and 9203
-The PDFs are from different sources, so I can't pinpoint it to one website. Documents contain various financial info, so I can't post here. Any help would be appreciated. I'm probably going to have to try a different pdf reader for these, but that is not ideal, since multiple people need to print these and are comfortable using Adobe software.

I was also receiving the message "The Document Could Not be Printed" I am on 10.6.4 with Acrobat 9.4.1. I did not get the second part of the message though "There were not pages selected to print". Anyway, I got mine to work by going to Preferences - Print & Fax. I selected my printer and clicked Options & Supplies. Under the driver tab I changed the "Print Using:" box to Generic PostScript Printer. I'm not sure if this is what you are supposed to do. I'm not an expert but it worked for me so I am going with it.

HP Officejet Pro L7780 won't print individual pages of a file

I have a HP Officejet Pro L7780 setup with wireless printing on my network and am using Windows 7 on a 64-bit computer with MSWord 2007. I'm trying to duplex print just specific corrected pages (like pages 7-8) from a file (of pages 1-22) and my printer just won't do it. When I select to print specific pages, the printer just sits there and then the print queue is apparently dumped, as the tray icon just disappears. The printer will print only all pages of a file or nothing at all. What could be the reason for this and how do I correct it? Thanks, Patricia

Document could not be printed - no pages selected

I attempted to print a range of pages of a pdf document. Acrobat says the document could not be printed because there were no pages selected to print. This was not true. I was able to print a range of pages from Apple Preview, so that means the file is OK. Therefore, Acrobat Pro has a bug. I am using Yosemite on my iMac, with Acrobat XI.

Hi -
Maybe this will help others get around or solve this issue. I was trying to print a 67MB PDF created in INDD (similar to others created and printed that day) and got the same messages as other posters:
Document could not be printed
There were no pages selected to print (even though All was selected)
I updated to 11.0.10 and continued to get these messages.
Ultimately Distiller was the solution.
cheers all

Acrobat won't print poster

Hello!
I'm having problems printing long images to poster using adobe acrobat X. I'm using a Xerox phaser 7800GX and am printing from a Macbook Pro OS 10.9.4. Both the computer and printer software are the latest versions. I can print a normal 1 page image fit to size of tabloid, but as soon as I print a longer image that needs to be printed across multiple pages the images become extremely small. I've tried reinstalling the drivers, restarting the computer and printer, checking for updates, printing different images, printing from preview, etc. Nothing seems to work, and weirder still is that sometimes it just works fine. Twenty pages will print incorrectly and then suddenly the next page will print perfectly followed by more problem pages.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Adobe wont print, no page selected

I am experiencing a problem with my Windows 64 bit workstation, trying to print an extra-large (60"X90") poster to my HP Plotter.
The Print dialog box shows the project divided vertically in three 36" wide strips, which should work out with my plotter loaded with 36"paper.
But when I select "Print" from the print menu, I get the Adobe "i" message "The document could not be printed" followed by another "i" message "There were no pages selected to print".
I checked, and of course the "all" button is selected in "Pages to Print

Hi edhelbig,
I'm sorry that you haven't received a response yet. Let's see what we can figure out.
Can you please tell me a bit more about your setup? Are you printing from Reader or Acrobat, and which version do you have? To that end, make sure that you have the most current version of either Reader or Acrobat installed by choosing Help > Check for Updates. Updating has resolved the issue for several customers facing the same issue. It's also important that you have the most current version of the printer driver for your plotter (you can check HP's website for that information.) But if that doesn't do the trick, here are some other things to try:
In the Acrobat/Reader preferences, click Document, and choose Never from the View Documents in PDF/A Mode pop-up menu.
Try printing another PDF with similar dimensions to the same printer. Does it print without error? If so, the PDF that's causing the error may not be well-fomed, and that could certainly cause the error that you're seeing.
Please give those things a go, and then let us know whether you were able to print successfully.
Best,
Sara
