AE print problem from wireless PC

I am using AE with a PC desktop conected via ethernet, a macbook and pc laptop connected wirelessly. All print to the canon pixima MP780 fine except the wireless PC. It will print documents, but when I try to print a web page, I get pages of codes. The laptop prints fine when connected directly to the printer so it is definately something with bonjour.

Mike,
Thanks so much for your advice regarding printing from the Windows laptop.
I have often seen the name 'bonjour' thinking it to be some sort of french version of email for mac!!!!!! I have turned on Printer Sharing in System Preferences on the mac and shall be downloading 'bonjour for windows this evening. Thanks again. Keith

  • Print Photo from wireless

    When I print a photo wirelessly from the test it prints correctly.  However, when I choose to print a photo outside of the setup it prints on paper instead of the photo paper.  I check 4 x 6 print on HP Premium Paper. What am I doing wrong?

    Please follow the instructions here in order and answer all questions in detail.

  • Printing problem from my Dell Laptop to my printer

    Hi everyone.  I'm new at this, but really need some help.  I have a Wireless Dell Laptop, and it uses Vista.  When I was with Comcast, I was able to print to the Wireless HP Officejet J6480 All in One printer.  However, we changed to Qwest recently, and since then I haven't been able to print from my Wireless Dell Laptop to my printer. When I try to print a Word Document, an error message comes up that the printer is off-line.  I went in and changed it to on-line, and now there is no error message, but it won't print either.  Hope someone can help.....Thanks Galfriday 

    I would try   uninstalling the printer and then reinstalling it.

  • Home network printing problem from Windows 8

    I have 3 PCs on my home network:
    1.    Windows XP desktop (Pro SP3) with HP 6500 E709a USB printer.
    2.    Windows 7 desktop (Ultimate SP1 64 bit) with HP 1018 USB printer.
    3.    Windows 8 (64 bit) laptop.
    Both printers are NOT Ethernet printers.
    All computers can see each other and share folders on the home network.
    Computers 1 & 2 can freely print on their own printers, as well as on each other's printer.
    The problem is with computer 3 (Win8): it can see both printers, but can't print on either (in fact, I can print a test page on the HP 1018 printer from the printer driver on the Win8 machine, but I can't print anything from any application). 
    I tried to install HP 6500 driver on the Win8 machine, I turned on Network Discovery in the Advanced Sharing Settings on it, but it still doesn't work.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Is there any "general puprpose" driver for HP 6500 E709a, something to replace the WIN8 driver that fails?

  • Printing problems from iPhoto 6

    For some odd reason I just can not print anything from iPhoto 6, it goes through the processes of printing, then brings up the Printer utility as if it's ABOUT to print, but then it fails and the Printer utility simply goes to "Jobs Stopped" without any further details as to WHY it stopped.
    I can however print from all other apps, and even saving image to PDF, then print the PDF from Preview works...

  • Printing Problem from ALV

    Hi,
    When I run my report, its perfectly working fine with all the data, subtotals, grand totals etc.
    But when I print the ALV by clicking the PRINT Button on the Standard tool bar, My first subtotals are printing correctly. From second, its printing ZEROES and my grand totals are printing double the number as I see on the output.
    This is strange and am not able to understand why I get those errors.
    ANy pointers please.
    Thanks,
    Kiran

    Hi Roger,
    I am using Function Module "REUSE_ALV_HIERSEQ_LIST_DISPLAY"
    I am displaying a hierarchical ALV with subtotals, page-breaks & grand totals.
    The strange thing is  that my  first SUBtotal gets printed properly. Its the problem from the second subtotal onwards.
    Finally, the grand totals also a problem(Doubling when i print first time and triplling,if  i print 2nd time ...and so on...)
    ANy  more clues please.
    Thanks,

  • Odd Printing Problem from BO 6.5.1

    Hi, I have been asked to support BO 6.5.1 users and some of them create .pdf files which don't print correctly. The heading boxes, table structures and formatting are retained but the text is replaced with random characters. The docs look fine on screen, it is only when they are printed out that the problem occurs. I am sure I have ruled out printing problems, email problems and Adobe 8.0 problems, particularly because this is only happening with pdf's from BO sent to any printer and so I feel it must be a fault with BO. Has anyone seen this before? Grateful for any advice

    Hi Greyhat,
    as you refer to the legacy technology VB6 I recommend to post this query to the [Legacy Application Development SDKs|SAP Crystal Reports - Legacy SDKs; forum.
    This forum is dedicated to topics related to legacy SDKs, including the Report Designer Component (RDC), OCX, VCL, and Crystal Reports Print Engine (CRPE).
    It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
    Also, all Legacy Application Development SDKs queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
    Thanks a lot,

  • Printing Problems from iMac G4 to HP Photosmart 7760-photos heavy on pink!

    Hello,
    We have an iMac G4 Flat Panel using OS 10.3.9 and are connected to the HP Photosmart 7760 Printer. The printer is printing heavy on the pink side photographs.
    When we print directly from our camera card, the printer prints fine. True colors. When we print using any software application, (ie Photoshop, iPhoto) the printer prints extremely heavy on the pink side. We have installed new cartridges, have cleaned and calibrated the printer, have unplugged and restarted the printer and still to no avail we have pink tinted photographs.
    Could someone help please?
    Thank You!

    It seemed to be nothing involving my printer, a recalibration of the computer display did the trick.

  • Color shift printing problem from LR solved!!

    Check this discussion for workaround to the color shift printing problem in LR. It's for the 3800, but I assume it also applies to other Epson printers, and quite possibly to other printer vendors.

    Yes it applies to Canon as well.

  • Wireless printing problem from OS X 10.2.8 and Win XP

    I have three machines I want to be able to print wirelessly through my airport express. Currently, only one of them will print wirelessly - which is lousy, help.
    Machine #1 is running Windows XP. It connects to the internet through the airport express just fine, no problem there. The problem is connecting to the printer. Machine #1 will print just fine when I connect the USB directly to the computer, but wirelessly I can't figure out how to hook it up properly through the airport express to the printer. The part I keep getting hung up on is that the airport express manual says to add another printer put in 10.0.1.1 for the IP address, but when I do so, the machine says that that address is already taken and it beeps at me real loud and gives me an error message - end of story. I suspect I need another IP address, but I can't figure out where to find it. Help.
    Machine #2 is my old ibook G3, which is running Mac OS X 10.2.8. The airport express should be able to make it so I can print wirelessly from machine #2, but this one is not working out either. Machine #2 connects to the internet just fine, and when I connect the printer manually to machine #2 it prints just fine. When I try to print wirelessly, through the airport express, it starts out ust fine, the printer begins to print, then all of a sudden, as if for no reason, it "stops the job". I "start the job" back up through the print center, and then it "stops the job" again. we play this game a bit, but I never get farther than printing the first few lines of my print job. It never really makes any progress, it just pretends like ti might if it felt like it. In this case, I've been looking online for some software patch that would fix this problem - looked on the apple site and on the epson site, and haven't made any progressfor many hours. Help!
    Machine #3 has no problems. It surfs the internet, plays music on my stereo and prints wirelessly without any trouble at all. It is my new ibook G4 running OS X 10.4. Is it possible to get machine #1 and machine #2 able to print wirelessly just like machine #3? (i'd like all three machines to be able to stream music to my stereo too, but I don't want to push my luck. I'll be ecstatic if I can get these other two machines to print wirelessly. I'm so tired of having to pull that printer cable out from under the couch everytime I need to print something.)
    Thanks to anyone who can help. Hey, thanks for just reading this.

    thank you for your response!
    I am about to look into the efelix site for the PC, thank you. i'm excited.
    for the mac, me thinks that i am out of luck with updating the driver. on the epson site the most recent drivers for my printer (epson sytlus photo 820) are for OS X 10.1.3 - 10.2.6, and I am running OS X 10.2.8.
    Hmmmm, I downloaded the driver anyway, and it gives me an APPLICATION LAUNCH FAILURE because of a "shared library error" when I try to launch the new drivers. The other thing on the site is a PIM II Plug In - which doesn't look like a driver to me.
    a link to the lack of drivers for my poor mac...

  • Printing problems from both wireless iMac & wired XP PC

    I have a fairly new (<1 yr old) AE, connected via Ethernet to an XP PC and wirelessly to an iMac purchased at the same time as the AE. No problems with Internet access on either, but printing to the HP DeskJet D2460 connected to the AE's USB has been a nightmare. Wirelessly from the iMac, it will print, but only in grayscale/draft - UNLESS I unplug the printer from the AE's USB, send the document to the printer, and then plug the USB back in, then it prints color beautifully. So frustrating! Also I continue getting a SubSpooler System error from the PC, which recognizes the printer as it should but just won't print to it. I have uninstalled and reinstalled drivers 2x. When I purchased the AE Apple assured me it would work for both purposes...help!

    Welcome to the discussions forum Busy_Mama.
    Your printer uses HP's LIDIL (Lightweight Imaging Device Interface Language) for its interface. As a rule, they *do not work* with the Extreme's USB port, and must be plugged directly into a computer.
    Try the drivers available from the link referenced in the second post in the following thread: Resources to determine if your HP printer will work with Extreme or Express
    This recent post describes a problem similar to yours: HP Deskjet 3845
    Good luck!

  • Wireless printing problems from Mac to my new Officejet 6700

    I have just purchased the Officejet 6700 for my office.  We have 7 mac laptops and one HP.  Currently the only printer that can printer wirelessly to the 6700 is the PC.  The first day I had the printer I was able to get my MacBook Air to print wirelessly, but since then it says it can't find the printer.  That is the same message all the other Macs are getting. 
    Any advice??

    Hi,
    I would rather suspect Multicasting lack of support or wrong configutation within your router, this will explain that behavior as Apple computers, unlike Windows, dicsover the device using Bonjour which relies on Multicasting.
    Please let me know your router brand and model in order to better understand the model.
    Additionally did you used a different multifunction device over the network prior the 6700?

  • Printing problem from usb on airport extreme

    Hi guys,
    Anyone come up against this problem whch is sending me up the wall.
    I've just purchased Airport extreme and my ibook works great wirelessly and I've used a lan connection to my windows pc which also works fine.
    Using the usb port on extreme I've connected my epson cx3200 printer. The ibook prints fine wireless, but when printing from the pc it prints one line and stops..
    Eventually the error window on the pc say "failed to print the document etc".
    I've searched all the trouble shooting but nothing seems to work.
    Any ideas
    Many thanks
    Gord ggg

    Yes, it is in installed and I've used the Bonjour wizard and only once have I had a oage print successfully.
    Cheers

  • Printing etc. from wireless computer via main computer

    I have just installed a WAG54 so my wife can surf the internet wirelessly from her new Vista laptop. I have been told that she should be able to print her documents on the printers that are hard wired to my computer and that I should be able to send files to her hard disc from my XP computer. It would be great if this is possible but I can't find out how to do it if it is true.
    If anyone can tell me if it is possible I would like to know how to set it up.
    Incidentally, Although we both have normal internet access and Easy Link Advisor shows this when opened the Easy Link Advisor Icon in the lower right-hand tray at the bottom of my screen has a red 'no-entry' circle over it. Has this anything to do with my problem?

    You have to configure your computers for file and printer sharing and your computers have to be  on the same workgroup.
    In XP, run FILE & PRINTER WIZARD.  You will notice that your computer is set to MSHOME Workgroup. Once the wizard completes it task, go to printer & faxes where you should see a little hand under your printers.
    In Vista cick on start/computer/systemproperties.  Here you will see your workgroup called WORKGROUP.  Change it to MSHOME.  Once it change go to network.  You should see your computers listed under MSHOME.  Click on ADD A PRINTER then add a network etc.

  • Tabloid duplex printing problem from CS4 (Acrobat and InDesign)

    I cannot print a two-page tabloid (landscape mode) pdf document properly from a MacBook Pro or a Mac Pro running 10.6.2 using Adobe Products (Acrobat 8 or 9, or InDesign CS3 or CS4) to an HP LJ5550DN. The printed version prints on both sides of the paper, but the right 1/4 of each page doesn't print. Furthermore, if I reboot and print just one side, it prints fine, but when I select duplex I get this problem and if I try to print just one side again, it prints w/o the 1/4 of the right side of the paper.
    I can print the tabloid duplex correctly using Preview on the same computers. I can also print correctly using Acrobat 7 from a Mac G4 running Mac OS 10.4.11. I can print a single tabloid sheet correctly from Illustrator CS3 or CS4 from the Snow Leopard computers, but since Illustrator doesn't handle more than one page, can't send it duplex.
    I conclude that the problem is the Adobe software under Snow Leopard. If you know what is wrong with the Adobe software, please send me the fix - it would streamline the process.

    I'm having exactly the same problem, with a 5500dn. As with you, the problem is present in both CS3 and Acrobat 8 and 9, and I can print a duplex A3/tabloid PDF correctly with Preview. (only the colour balance is rubbish!)
    Mac OS 10.6.2, print driver HP Color Laserjet 5500 v3010.107 (although it's obviously not the driver).
    Needless to say, any solution to this needs to address CS3 and later apps.
    Bug report filed.
    Thanks,
