  • Printservicelookup does not list newly added printer in OAS R2.

    Hi,
    We are using OAS R2 Server and JDK 1.5. In our application we have a scenario where we will display the list of printers configured to the Server. The below is the code we are using to get the list of printers configured in the server.
    Code:
    AttributeSet aset = new HashAttributeSet();
    PrintService[] services = PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(null,aset);
    The above code works fine to display the existing printers configured in the server. But when ever we add a new printer to the server, it is not listed. We have even restarted the server and the machine after adding the printer,Still it does not display the newly added printer. Any help would be greatly appreciated?
    P.S: The same code works fine in OAS R3 server, after restarting the server it displays the newly added printer.

  • Can't print- 27" 2013 iMac-my epson stylus 3800 pro will not print-i updated driver n added printer in syst prefs-When i print the printer queue opens and shows the job as "stopped"-Supply level "information is not available"-maybe part of problem...thx

    I can't print from my  27" late 2013 iMac.  I am using an epson stylus 3800 pro.  I updated driver and added printer in system preferences. When i print the printer queue opens and shows the job as "stopped".  Supply level shows  "information is not available which maybe part of problem...thank you

    The first thing you could try is a reset of the printing system. Please note that this action will remove all printers and scanners from the Printers & Scanners preference pane.
    With the reset complete, unplug the Epson USB cable from the Mac for a minute and then reconnect it. This action should result in the printer being added again to the Mac automatically. If this does happen, then see if you can print again.
    If the printer is not added again automatically, open Printers & Scanners and click the plus button to add the Epson. Once this is done, then see if you can print again.

  • Adding PRINT Button on a List Item Page

    Hi,
    We have an existing custom list for our asset tracking. We are required to make the list item's page printable by adding a "PRINT" button on it. Currently, a list item's page has a "Close" button together with the following tabs such as: "New Item", "Edit Item", "Delete Item", "Manage Permissions", and "Alert Me". "Print" button should be like the "Close" button. Once the "Print" button will be click then a "Print" window will appear to select the printer to use. It will print only the list item's content and not the whole page.
    Is there anyone who implemented as what describes above? Please help me how to implement this.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi Rock,
    Thank you for giving those links.
    I checked it and it was almost the same with Andre's posting. I did not try to install since as i understand, i need to do it in the server that hosted our portal which i'm afraid of doing it. I'm not an advanced user of sharepoint so i'm very careful of doing changes or enhancement to our portal.

  • Newly added printer is not showing up in printer list in Acrobat 11.0.3

    Hello,
    We are using Acrobat Pro 11.0.3. We recently added a new printer and that printer does not show up for one user of the machine in Acrobat. It shows up in other applications and under Printers. Other users who log into the machine can see the printer in Acrobat. I have uninstalled Acrobat, rebooted, reinstalled. I have also removed referenced to Adobe under HKEY_CURRENT_USER as well as APPDATA to no avail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • [Solved] Adding Printer Marks to a Pages document in Acrobat

    By "Printer Marks" I mean "bleeds" and "crop marks".
    A bleed is the area of the paper that will be trimmed off after the job is printed.
    Crop marks indicate the exact place where the paper is to be trimmed.
    Background:
    I normally do programming and web development, but, after having spent about three hours fiddling around tryng to transform our Pages-made brochure into something to send to commercial printers, I thought I'd record the process so as not to waste so much time on the next occasion we do something similar.
    I thought I'd share this with other Pages users because Pages has no native support for Printer Marks and PDF files contain this as metadata, so a commercial printer will expect this to be properly set up. I believe their printers may even read the PDF metadata.
    Required:
    Pages and Acrobat Pro. (I have Pages '09 and Acrobat 9 Pro - updated from the one originally distributed with Adobe CS3)
    Recipe:
    Set up a custom page size in Pages.
    e.g. For an A4 sheet size (210 x 297 mm), the Pages "Page Setup" should specify 220 x 307 mm allowing for a 5mm bleed all round.
    'Print' the document to 'Adobe Acrobat PDF' (which, for me, automatically opens up Acrobat Pro 9)
    In Acrobat, go to: Advanced >> Print Production >> Crop Pages
    The excellent article at http://www.prepressure.com/pdf/basics/page_boxes explains the Acrobat box model and points out that  PDF files will embed this important info for the printer:
    The Trimbox  (defining the intended dimensions of the finished page): e.g. A4
    the BleedBox and the MediaBox which are e.g. 5mm bigger all round the A4 sheet and will contain the Printer Marks.
    So: You only need to edit the margins of the Trimbox on "All Pages". Acrobat will add the Printer Marks outside the TrimBox.
    Ensure no other margins are accidentally edited.
    The MediaBox is the imported page size and is not editable in the Crop Pages dialog
    The  Bleedbox you wil most likely want to be the same as the Mediabox so won't need editing. Ensure it's 0,0,0,0.
    The TrimBox is editable - and should be edited - here (e.g. add 5mm 'margins' all round to allow for the bleed.)
    Click OK: Now if you specified margins for the CropBox …. but why would you? ... but this may be default Acrobat behaviour! .. you will have cropped out the screen area where the Printer Marks will be displayed.
    Go to Advanced >> Print Production >> Add Printer Marks
    I didn't check "All Marks" because I had a spurious Registration? "capstan" added in the middle of a page on one occasion. I checked Trim Marks, Bleed Marks and Color Bars. … on "All Pages".
    Click OK; Command+S to save file.
    Good to go!

  • Adding print slide or window button

    I am trying to print the quiz results page and the only thing I can find is to add a smart shape button and change the action to "execute_JavaScript".  In the script_window i'm simply adding one line of code "window.print()".  The problem I'm running into is when I publish my project the slide containing the print button shows up completely blank.  Any idea whay I am doing wrong here?  I tried adding a widget as well, but my system does not have a print widget available. 

    Where do you see the target='_top"? I went looking for the original button from my original post which was in the http://web.me.com/toad.hall/HelperSite//Page1_files/widget3markup.html page via the Activity window and view source and this is what the code of that widget page is:
    <xmp>
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    <html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /><title></title></head><body><form>
    <input type=button value="Close Window" onClick="javascript:window.close();">
    </form> </body></html>
    </xmp> (Ignore the <xmp></xmp> tags when using)
    I don't see the target='_top" in there. What am I missing? This was my first post: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9134142#9134142.
    Thanks for the help.

  • Adding printer marks the quick way

    Is my workflow sound?
    I print a magazine that has many many ads submitted by clients via pdf and the ads invariably  fail to contain printer marks, have no bleed set and are of improper page size. The ads are big enough to cover the proper page size and extend past the bleed but in order to add printer marks I have to set the art box, trim box, crop box and bleed box in Acrobat and then afterwards I can add printer marks. This is time consuming when you are dealing with over 300 ads and you have a deadline.
    So, I just place and center the pdf in an empty InDesign document that has the proper page size and the proper bleed and just export it back to PDF using a preset that include printer marks. Easy Peasy.
    My question is should I set Output (in the Export to PDF dialog box) to "No Color Conversion" since they are already cmyk pdfs? If I leave it to "Convert to Destination (Preserve Numbers) - which is my default - I assume that is fine too since the incoming ads are already separated for US Web Coated SWOP 2 and that is my default cmyk working space. I shouldn't have to worry about color changes either way correct?
    I also set compression to none in the Export to PDF dialog box since the ad was already exported to pdf once already.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks.
    -Mark

    Are all of these ads supposed to be full page w/ bleed? I've never understood why anyone would want marks or bleeds on anything that wasn't.
    In any case, I can't see that adding marks to one of these ads before you place it is of much use to you. If you are presuming the centering when you add the marks, just presume that when you place the ad in the magazine (but perhaps I've misunderstood and that's what you are doing). There's no benefit to any intermediate addition of fictitious marks.
    I would export the magazine using whatever your normal settings are. Preserve numbers is safe, it won't make rich black type, but colors will shift if the wrong space was used to create the ad. No conversion is probably not a good idea on the off chance that there are spot or RGB colors included -- you never know...
    I also would use the refular compression settings you normally use. I've been told that ID "internalizes" placed PDF and handles the compression on the images just as if they were placed directly. It won't compress them more unless the original settings were higher than the ones you use.

  • Adding Printer as a scanner in print service role (Distributed scan server), would it be possible in windows server 2008 r2 !!

    Hello All 
    I have a sharp printer that support scanniing as well and my question is : 
    I want to getting use from manage scanner service role that is belonging to the print service role in windows server 2008 , which has the feature of passing the scanned document to users shared folders which are exist in the same server.
    but when i try to add my printer as a scanner it did not accept .. so i cant proceed with my objective, which is allowing users to pass their scanned docs to their shared folder
    Any idea ?

    Can i scan to network shared folder without adding the used credentials, i am looking for this distributed scan features for this issue.
    now each time new user will come i will create for him a shared folder with his username and password then i will go to the printer web base page and add this shared folder to the address book, but i need the user to come to add his password. how i can tell
    the printer to authenticate him and directt his scan to his shared folder without asking him to enter his password to be able to create an address book for him ?? any help
    Thanks in advance !

  • Canon IRC 3200--cannot print after adding printer to Mac 10.5.4

    I have searched and read all the relevant topics but still I have problem printing to the irc3200. I have a Mac (Leopard) with Parallels (running Windows XP.) I installed PCL5e on the Window side and can print with no problem. On the Mac side, I initially used the "Appletalk" to install and can print, but as some of you know, using the Appletalk limits the "print menu" that you can see on the Mac. So I deleted the Appletalk printers, installed the Canon PS 1.81 driver and added the printer with queue name LP. I added the printer successfully, was able to see the "Special features" tab, but every time I print, it will say "Printer in use. Waiting for Print job to finish" and the job will just sit in queue forever. I then added the printer again with queue name "Direct" but the same message occurs when I try to print.
    I would very much appreciate any advice. Thank you.

    If you used the More Printers > Canon IP (PS) option to add the printer queue, then this will use LPR/LPD protocol. With the error you are getting, you may find that the LPD service has been disabled on the copier. Note that Windows will default to Port 9100 (RAW) for its protocol, so that explains why that would work.
    You can open the Remote UI page for the iRC3220 by typing its ip address into your web browser. With the home page open, select the Additional Functions tab. You may be prompted for the iRC3200 system administrator ID and password. Enter this if you know it or contact your IT if you don't.
    When the Additional Functions options appear, select Custom Settings. On the right hand pane, under Network Settings select LPD Settings. Ensure 'Use LPD' is enabled. If it isn't, check it then OK the change. You will have to restart the machine for the service to start working.
    The other thing to check is that the imagePASS print controller option is not fitted to the iRC3200. This is a white rectangular metal box that would be hanging on the back of the copier. If you have this, you will not see all the options I mentioned above. Instead you will see the home page for the imagePASS (probably the C1). If you have the imagePASS, then you cannot use the Canon PS driver. You will need to use the PS driver for the imagePASS-C1.

  • Error -9672 when adding printer

    I've looked on the posts, guys, and I can't find something that will help. I had a Brother MFC-201C on my Airport before, but I disconnected it and used it directly through USB. I have just tried reconnecting it to the Airport, and it is identified as a rendevous printer, but when I try to add it I get the "error -9672" problem. Any ideas how I go about getting this printer added? I've updated all the firmware of Airport.

    Try this first:
    1. Unplug AirPort Express, and turn off the printer.
    2. Disconnect the USB cable from the AirPort Express.
    3. Plug in AirPort Express, and turn on the printer.
    4. After AirPort Express finishes starting up, reconnect the USB cable from the printer.
    If that fails, read Printer troubleshooting for AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express

  • Adding Printer from Print and Fax does not bring up the correct Window.

    Hi,
    When I first had my Macbook, OSX Leopard, I tried adding a printer and saw that the Window that popped up allowed me to add printers from IP, Windows, Local, Etc.
    However, when I came back to add a printer now, all I get is this window:
    http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/2748/picture1vc9.png
    That window pops up when I press the + on this window:
    http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/8923/picture2sc1.png
    I remembered when I press the + button, it would come up with a different window than the one I get now, which allowed me to add a printer from Windows, among other options.
    Please let me know if the window I get right now is supposed to happen. I can't add any printers from the window I get now.
    Thanks alot.

    Just to add a bit of clarity to the previous response, you need to click on the clear, oval widget at the upper right-hand corner of the the window. That will reveal the Toolbar with the options for IP, Windows, etc.

  • Error adding printer to Bonjour

    I am getting the error message "An error occurred when trying to add selected printer" when adding my HP PSC1200 connected to Airport Express via Bonjour. When I tried to add the printer manually in "System Preference" ->"Print and Fax", "Printer Browser" recognized the printer, but it could not pick up the correct printer driver under "Print Using" picklist.
    This problem occurs only on my Intel-based iMac, my Powerbook G4 running OS X 10.4.3 had no problem working with the printer over Bonjour. Does the Intel iMac required different a driver?
    Steve

    I am having the exact same problem with my OKIPAGE 8iM black and white printer. I have the latest print driver as shown on the OKI website installed but the Mac just wont print to it. I always get the message "An error occurred when trying to add selected printer"
    My new DELL laptop running Windows XP prints straight to it using Bonjour for Windows so it cant be the old(ish) printer.
    Also the Mac Keeps dropping the Airport signal (mainly after opening <Printer setup Utility> and getting the above meassage, BUT the Dell laptop still sees the ABS and continues to work fine on the Internet. So its just a Mac problem!
    Come on any one else sorted this problm?

  • Error Adding Printer Samsung CLX-3180 Series OSX 10.9

    MacBook Pro Retinta Display OS X 10.9.4 8 G RAM; 2 GHz Intel Core
    I am having troubling adding a printer to my recently purchased Macbook
    I downloaded the drivers from the Samsung website for the CLX-3180 Series, the software installs (at least it says it did).
    I then go to add printer under printers/scanners and select Samsung CLX-3180 Series from the window. Messages indicate that the software was downloaded and updated and then I get the message "An error occurred while trying to add the selected device; Unable to find an appropriate software on your system after running software update."
    I then reset the printer system, update the system software, restarted the laptop and tried again; still get the same error message.
    No clue what to do next.

  • Adding printer NEW AP extreme utility.app

    I want to add a printer that is connect directly to my PC and has a wifi connection, too.  My mac has always used the wifi to print, and with an old Netgear it worked fine.  Now with a brand new AP extreme (2015) it doesn't.  The utility app doesn't allow me to choose such a peripheral.  Plus it doesn't look like what other people have from last December even.  Help!
    Thanks.

    My mac has always used the wifi to print, and with an old Netgear it worked fine.
    Were you printing via the Windows PC shared printer (wifi is then merely used for network and the share happens from the PC) or was the printer also wifi connected to the router?
    In the new setup with the AE printer should be wifi connected directly to the router. The method of doing that is in the main menu area.. ie up the top.. not in the boxes of the AE itself.
    So go to the main top menu.. but if you use Yosemite it looks different.
    Change from Pin to First attempt and the Printer will then be network connected to the AE.
    Once you do that.. remove the existing setup completely in the Mac and start over.. adding the printer that is now wifi connected to the AE.
