AirPrint creates multiple copies when printing just one...

It's driving me mad. I have a HP1217nfw, AirPrint works, but when I try to print one copy, it prints out multiple copies, leaving me scrabbling for the Cancel button and doing everything to cancel the multiple prints it churns out regardless. This leads to me hitting the printers Off button as the only way of stopping things, which then causes a paper jam.
Any ideas? I have updated to the latest firmware for the printer, but it's made no difference either from my new iPad Mini Retina or the iPad 2.

Many thanks to you 'both'   Yes, I had the old version of the firmware which was updated and now has fixed the issue.
I rang HP tech support about a problem with 10.8 OSX drivers and they told me the printer is no longer supported. Its just over a year old.....
I could not get any of the drivers to install, then found on another forum that the issue was fixed by installing 10.7 drivers. All is now well, but thanks for this, I was going round in circles.

  • Using Airprint on iPad, can you print just one page out of many?

    When I print using my PowerBook, the printer utility comes up and I can print only the pages I want to, not necessarily the whole list of pages.  But when using Airprint on the iPad, I get no page selection choice, just PRINT or CANCEL.  No instructions in the Users Guide for iOS 6.1 or iOS 7, nor in the Artisan 837 Guide either.  Is there a way to print just the page or pages I want, and therefore save on paper and ink?  Thanks!

    Google show that you have to cut what you want to print and then paste it into a new app and print from that app.

  • Multiple copies when printing

    When I print from my account the default setting for number of copies is 4, no matter which software I am using.
    When I switch to another account the default setting is one copy.
    Does anyone know how to change the default number of copies?
    Thanks
    Dave

    Are you using any presets? There doesn't seem to be a way to default the number of copies other than by using a preset. You could throw away com.apple.print.PrintingPrefs and any preset preference files in your home's Preferences folder.

  • Add Folder to library taking a long time and creating multiple copies

    I have been a longtime WMP user and am ready to convert to iTunes. I am trying to "add folder to library", which causes a request to convert the files I already have (approx 5,000 songs).
    It has been running for more than two days, day and night, working on this. I am not kidding!
    I discovered that it has been creating multiple copies of the songs. It looks like it has restarted a few times, perhaps each time it restarts a new copy is made and placed in the iTunes folder.
    Should it take this long? What can I do to resolve the speed issue and to eliminate all the duplicate files?
    Please help.
    Thanks
    -medicnick

    Theoretically, "Add Folder to Library" goes thru the folder and all its subfolders, and adds each song that it finds that is not already in the library. Optionally, it will make a copy of each song and deposit it in the iTunes Music Folder according to Album and Artist.
    Personally, I have never seen it behave any different. But it is often reported on this forum that on large adds (and at 5000 yours is large) it does not behave properly.
    Since your iTunes library is new, and does not yet contain those precious play counts, why not just delete it and re-add the songs in small batches. You may wish to deselect the "Copy Files to iTunes Folder When Adding to Library" option in Edit > Preferences > Advanced > General.

  • Why does a mail-merge in MS Publisher split into multiple files when printed as a pdf file?

    Why does a mail-merge in MS Publisher split into multiple files when printed as a pdf file?

    'Cuz that's what mail merges do.  They create multiple documents based on the parent doc and all the names/addresses in your data tables.
    Perhaps if you describe exactly what you're trying to do & why you need PDF, we can point you to relevant tutorials.

  • Create multiple copies of a position- HCM Processes and Forms

    Hi Experts,
    Hope all are doing well.
    In my current project we using HCM PnF to create positions and copy positions. We are using the FPM interface.
    One of the requirements is to for copy position and the user can create multiple copies(max upto 30) of a position.
    How can this be achieved in HCM PnF?
    One answer will be advanced generic service. Do we have any other way of achieving this? If not, do we have any sample code where we use advance generic service to call SAP_PD/ or any code which might be helpful?
    Waiting for you answers.
    Thanks very much in advance.
    Regards,
    Saikat

    Hi Kalyan,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Yes, I understand that we will have to achieve that through advanced generic service.
    To be honest I haven't used advanced generic service for PD before and it will be helpful if you can give me some code(may be the one inside do operations and flush). With some sample code it will be easier for me.
    Many thanks.

  • Create multiple portal instances with only one database?

    Can someone create multiple portal instances with only one database?
    If so, how is this done, just by running the portal configuration wizard?
    How are most people running with multiple developers working on portal? Do they share a portal instance, or create their own?
    Thank you very much!

  • Do I have to purchase multiple copies of OSX Lion one for each mac

    As OSX Lion is only available as a download, do I have to purchase multiple copies of OSX Lion one for the laptop & one for the desktop?

    No, you can use the same copy on your Macs.  Log into the App Store using the Same AppleID.  It will be in the puchased section.  If you're on Snow Leopard, just click install.

  • Multiple albums instead of just one

    Can anyone tell me why when importing a cd Itunes sets up multiple albums instead of just one?

    Hi
    Just been having that issue myself!
    I tracked it down to the get info data.
    Usually I found I had a different artist os the track numbers weren't all correct format like 6 instead of 6 of 10.
    Another time the music was classical style in one and blues in another!
    As I changed each of the info data each track would then sort of merge with the others until I just had one folder. Then import a picture from google and I was there.
    Looks much better.

  • How can i print just one page of photo book without printing the entire book

    how can i print just one page of photo book without printing the entire book

    Jim,
    Take heart.  We can help.
    First turn on page view so you can see how the content of your sheet fits on the page(s).  A Numbers document contains sheets (listed on the left) which in turn contain tables, charts, text, and graphics.  Select the sheet you want to print on the left, then enable page view by selecting the menu item:
    "View > Show Print View":
    Now you should see your content and how it fits on one, or more, pages.  If thie content is too big for one page use the controls and the bottom left of the window to expose the sheet controls:
    Here a table is too big to fit on one page:
    slide the "Content Scale" slider so the content fits:

    My mac wants to print all of the pages. Don't see a way to print just one page. Since the pages are numbered 6-19 and so on, I can't enter the specific page numbers to be printed.

    Instead of going to the Print dialog, open the Pages panel, right-click the
    page you want to print and select Print Page(s).

    How do I print all responses as pdf forms without selecting and printing just one response at a time?

    Sorry this is not supported at this time. You can only download the responses as PDF one at a time.
    You can export the response table and print the whole table but if you want to print each response individually you have to do it manually. Sorry.
