Annoying separator page

How to I stop the printer from printing the separator page? HP4500 Officejet Wireless. Windows 8.1 OS.
In the properties, the device settings only allow for identification of the separator page, but not the option to omit.
Thanks.

Are you sure that you have identified which type of separator page is being printed?
There are various types, controlled from different places:
Spooler separator page , usually controlled via one of the tabs on the Printer Properties dialogue.
Application-specific print infomation page, sent (if enabled) from some application (e.g. Word).
With some printers, I think that the printer itself can be configured to print some sort of separator page; I have no access to, nor knowledge of, your printer model, so have no idea if this is applicable.
Print jobs may be sent to some printers via LPR (rather than port 9100); in such cases, I think that there may be an option to enable an LPR information page

Blank Sheet at beginning and between every printed page; Separator Page dialog box is blank.

I followed directions of another blog and when I got to the Separator Page dialog box, it said to "delete all templates listed in the Separator Page box", but mine was blank. If I click on the browse button, I do find pcl,sep; pscript.sep; sysprint.sep; and sysprtj.sep files. Do I delete these sep files? I have a HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One Printer and am using Windows 7 (had same problem with VISTA).

I had this issue using FF 5.0, I fixed it by doing the following :
# Go to firefox button, select options, options.
# Find all the applications that are listed as Adobe
# Change the action from 'Use Adobe Reader (in FireFox)' to 'Use Adobe Reader'
Fixed :)

Double separator page when printing with W8 x64?

Hi all,
I am having an issue, when I print from a Windows 8 x64 machine I get 2 separator pages instead of 1. I'm assuming one is the server pcl and one is the local pcl. If I take away the pcl file on either machine I get no separator page. I've searched the internet
high and low and cant seem to find out how to stop this. It's very wasteful! Is there a way to disable the local pcl? I tried to remove it but even though I am admin on the machine and disabled UAC (in registry too), I am not allowed to delete it or rename
it.
Thanks

Yes I have! That's how I was removing the pcl.sep file. I have done so on the server and the local machine. these are the scenarios then I leave the separator field blank:
sever: c:\windows\system32\pcl.sep local: c:\windows\system32\pcl.sep = 2 separator pages
sever: Blank local: c:\windows\system32\pcl.sep
= no separator pages
sever: c:\windows\system32\pcl.sep local: Blank
= no separator pages
In Windows 7 it looks like the 1st scenario but only prints 1 separator page.

Any way to remove extra blank "separator" pages when printing in Numbers?

Hello, I've just started using Numbers '09 and noticed that for each page I have, there is an extra blank "separator" page that is added. Last night, I started a spreadsheet using one of the templates, and it's only 2 pages long, but it states on the sidebar that it's 4 pages. Those extra blank pages are only seen when you do a Print Preview. Is there a way to remove or disable these extra blank pages?
I don't want those blank pages to print, especially when there are multiple sheets within the file with those blank pages mixed in-between. Plus, I send the file to others to reference too and would like them to be able to print the pages seamlessly without having to remove any blank separator pages that are printed in-between. Seems like there should be an easy remedy to this, but so far, haven't been able to find the solution. Thanks for your help!

Hi,
Unlike other spreadsheet programs, Numbers doesn't have wall-to-wall tables. Tables have a finite size and wherever there is a table a page will print, whether there is content in the cells on that page or not. To prevent the sheets without content from printing, you need just reduce the size of the tables to what you actually are using. If you select a cell in your table and scroll to the lower right corner of the table, you will find a large handle that when dragged will change the number of Rows and Columns. Drag the handle up and to the left until it encounters content. It will stop there on its own.
Now go to the Print View mode: View > Show Print View. You will see all the pages with content and adjacent non-printing pages will be grayed-out.
Hope this helps.

Threadinar10 - Page Separator, Page Fragment Box , Tab Set & Tab Components

Hi All,
This is the tenth in the Threadinar series. See the Components Threadinar Index at http://forum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=103424 for the complete list to date.
This Threadinar will discuss 4 components in the "Components Palette: Layout Section" section of the Creator Component Catalog.
The components we will focus on today are
"Page Separator", "Page Fragment Box" , "Tab Set" & "Tab" Components.
Let us begin our discussion with the "Page Separator" Component.
Page Separator Component
You can drag the Page Separator component from the Palette's Layout category to the Visual Designer to create a horizontal line that resizes to any page width selected by the user. This component is the visual equivalent of an HTML <hr> tag.
In the page bean, a Page Separator component is a PageSeparator object.
* Note: If you want to use an HTML <hr> tag, drop a Meta component on the page and set its tag property to hr.
[b]Page Fragment Box Component
This component enables you to include a page fragment in a page. A page fragment is a separate, reusable part of a page that can be included in any number of pages. For example, you might want to put a common a visual element like a header graphic in a page fragment and then include it in all the pages in an application.
When you drag the Page Fragment Box component from the Layout category of the Palette and drop it on a page, the Select Page Fragment dialog box prompts you for the name of the page fragment to be included. You can enter the name of an existing page fragment or create a new page fragment. If you create a new page fragment, the IDE gives the new fragment a .jspf file suffix and creates a node for it in the Projects window, as well as adding the page fragment to the Outline window.
* Note: A Page Fragment Box component simply includes a page fragment in a page. Deleting a Page Fragment Box component from a page does not delete the page fragment itself, even if you originally used the Select Page Fragment dialog box to create the page fragment.
After dropping a Page Fragment Box component on the page, if you click inside the component, you see the properties for the included fragment. If you click the border of the component, you see the properties for the enclosing <div> block. You can also use the Outline window to select the enclosing block, the page fragment, or the components in the page fragment. In the Outline window, the Page Fragment Box component is represented by a node named directive.include:fragment-file.jspf, where fragment-file is the name of the page fragment file.
If you double-click the page fragment, it opens as a page in the Visual Editor, enabling you to edit it like a regular page. The page fragment has an associated JavaBeans object, a page fragment bean, which you can edit by clicking the Java button at the top of the page fragment when it is open in the Visual Editor. As with a regular page, if you drop a component like a button in a fragment, double clicking adds an event handler in the page fragment bean, enabling you to reuse the code on any page to which you add the page fragment. A common scenario for reusing component code would be a Search Box fragment that has a search Label, a Text Field where the user enters the search string, some Inline Help, and search logic code in the page fragment bean.
* The tab order of the components in the page is unlikely to work properly unless you enclose the entire page fragment box in the Faces Verbatim component.
For more details see tutorial : "Using Page Fragments"
http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jscreator/learning/tutorials/2/pagefragments.html
[b]Tab Set Component
The Tab Set component in the Palette's Layout category is a container for a set of Tab components. Typical uses of a tab set are:
* To provide alternate sets of components on the same page and enable the user to navigate to them by clicking on tabs. The user sees only the components under the currently selected tab. For more information on adding components to tabs, see Tab Component.
* To navigate among a set of pages. If you use a tab set this way, you would usually have the tab set near the top of each page with the component's width set at 100%. You would use the Page Navigation editor to define each tab to display a page in the application, with the current page's tab set as the selected tab. In addition, you would need to delete the default Layout Panel component under each tab so the tab would display the page contents.
You can set Tab Set properties in the component's Properties window.
A Tab Set component contains Tab Components, and Tab components can contain other Tab components. You can see these components displayed as hierarchical nodes in the Outline window after you add a Tab Set to your page.
You can add a new tab to a tab set in two ways, by right-clicking the Tab Set component and choosing Add Tab or by dropping a new tab component on the Tab Set or on a Tab component.
You can drop a new tab component on a tab set in the Visual Designer to the right or left of existing tabs to create a new tab at that level. The tabs in a tab set can also be containers for other tabs. If you drop a Tab component on an existing tab, the new tab becomes a child of the tab on which you dropped it. The maximum number of levels for tabs is three.
The tab set component determines which tab is rendered as selected, storing the value in the selected property. By default, the selected property is set to the first tab created for the component. If you click a tab while designing your web page, that tab becomes the selected tab. You can tell during design time that a tab is selected because its color changes.
[b]Tab Component
A Tab is part of a Tab Set component. You can add a new tab to a tab set in two ways, by right-clicking the Tab Set component and choosing Add Tab or by dragging a new Tab component from the Layout category of the Palette and dropping it on the Tab Set or on another Tab component. You can also drag from the Palette and drop the tab on the tab set's nodes in the Outline window.
* If you drop the Tab component to the left or right of an existing tab, it is added to the same row of tabs.
* If you drop the Tab component on an existing tab, the dropped tab becomes a child tab of the tab on which you drop it unless the existing tab is a third level tab. You can have at most three levels of tabs in a tab set.
o Note: You cannot add a child tab to a tab that has components in its Layout Panel. When you drop a tab on an existing tab component that has an empty Layout Panel, the empty Layout Panel is deleted to make room for the dropped tab.
By default, a Tab component has a Layout Panel below it where you can drop components that will be displayed when the user selects the tab. The Layout Panel by default has its panelLayout property set to Grid Layout, meaning that components dropped on the panel are aligned at the location where they are dropped. You can change the layout behavior by setting the panelLayout property to Flow Layout, which aligns dropped components left to right in rows. For more information on Layout Panel properties, see Layout Panel Component Properties Window.
To select a tab in a tab set, either click the Tab component on the page or select the Tab component's node in the Outline window. To select the whole tab set, either click the border of the Tab Set component on the page or select the tab set's node in the Outline window. Alternatively, you can select a Tab component and either press Escape or right-click and choose Select Parent to select its parent component.
* Note: If you select a tab on a page in the Visual Designer, a side effect is that it becomes the selected tab. If this effect is not what you want, select the tab in the Outline window so you can set its properties.
You can drag tabs in the Outline window to change their location and level in the tab set.
Some typical uses of tabs:
* You can drop components on the Layout Panel component below a tab to enable a set of components to be displayed below each tab. When the user selects a tab, they see only the components that are associated with the tab, without having to change pages.
* You can use a tab set to navigate among a set of pages. Each tab component links to a page in your web application. You would use the Page Navigation editor to define each tab to display a page in the application, with the current page's tab set as the selected tab. If you want to use the tab set for page navigation, be sure to delete each tab component's Layout Panel.
You can also right-click the Tab component and choose one of the following options:
* Edit action Event Handler. Code the action event handler, the method that is called when the user clicks the tab. This method determines which page or resource to open based on specified conditions. The action method typically processes mouse clicks and returns a string indicating the name of a page navigation case (the page in your application to display next). The default name for the method is tab-id_action, where tab-id is the value of the tab's id property.
* Bind to Data. Dynamically set the text that appears on the tab. You can bind the component's text property to an object or a data provider, as described in the topic Bind to Data Dialog Box.
* Property Bindings. Opens a dialog box that enables you to bind properties of the component in addition to the text property to other objects or bean properties that update this component's properties automatically.

Thank you for your participation

The following blog has a mini tutorial on using a tab set in a page fragment for page navigation:
http://blogs.sun.com/divas/entry/tabbing_thru_the_tulips
A reader commented that the mini tutorial needed to be improved upon to show how to keep the tab state and navigation state in synch.
How would you do it? If you have a good example, maybe post it to this thread.
Also, there is no tab tutorial but it is on the priority list. What would you like a tab tutorial to show how to do?

Xerox Phaser 6250 Separation Page Option

The MacOSX Printer Driver for the Xerox Phaser 6250 has so many functions that simply do not work!
I am forced to export my booklet projects to Acrobat and then print them from a Windows computer because the MacOSX Printer Driver features don't work properly.
The most unacceptable failure is in the PRINTER FEATURES / ADVANCED / SEPARATION PAGE! The option to place a separation page at the end of each collated set simply doesn't work from MacOSX. It will insert a separation page between each PAGE rather than at the end of each SET that is printed.
Another peculiar feature is that when printing from InDesign or Acrobat Professional on MacOSX, the pages are sent one by one to the printer cue and it re-sends the entire data over and over for each set. If I print 10 copies of a 10 page book, it sends 100 pages of data to the printer cue. On Windows, the same printer driver sends 10 pages to the printer cue and it realizes it will print that 10 times.
I don't want to hear that the fault is Xerox or whatever, I spent a huge amount of money for my business to buy this printer and must continue to make use of it for another two or three years to justify this investment and I expect Apple to provide useable printer drivers and features.
Is there a way to report a technical flaw like this to Apple and know that someone there will actually do something about this problem?
G4 1Ghz Dual MDD Mac OS X (10.4.4)

I ran into this same issue today. What finally worked was to use the Xerox driver to control 2 sided printing only and to use Reader to specify the number of pages on a page. Make sure you set the page orientation in File=>Print Settings. That way you can turn off the auto rotate and center.

Separator page prints out with wrong name when printing from Outlook 2010

Working with Windows 7 Enterprise, Outlook 2010. We've set up our desk printers to print a separator page with the user's name, as several people use the same printers in our building. Printing from IE, Word, etc. all work fine, and it'll print
out the correct username on the separator page.
When anyone attempts to print an Outlook email, it instead prints out my username. We've found that it doesn't happen if they click on the "quick print" button, but it happens every time if they do "file > Print" or Ctrl+P.

Hi
As per the information and details provided by you that separator page prints out with wrong name when printing from Outlook 2010, please follow these steps: -
To create a custom separator page file, use a text editor such as
Notepad. On the very first line, type one single character, and then press
Enter. The character on this line defines the character used as an escape character. For example, the following list assumes that this character is the at sign (@).
Enter the escape codes for the functions you want, and then save the file with an .sep extension in the Windows System32 subfolder.
In the Print Manager, select the printer that you want to use the separator page file with, and then click
Choose Properties on the Printer menu.
Click
Details, specify the name of the desired separator page file in the
Separator File box, and then click OK.
Note:
Put the custom separator page file in one of the following locations:
In the %Windir%System32 folder.
In a folder whose path contains a SepFiles folder. For example:
Drive:\Folder\SepFiles\Subfolder
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

Annoying Web Page Keeps Popping Up

Ever since I upgraded Firefox I am getting ANNOYING web pages from updatenowpro.com telling me my software is out date - what is that? Is that coming from Firefox?

Whenever you get a message / popup that software / files need to be updated, 
'''''DO NOT USE ANY OF THE PROVIDED LINKS'''''. 
While this may be a legitimate message, it could also be '''''Malware or a Virus'''''.
Any time you want or need to check for upgrades,
go to the web site of the '''''True Owner''''' of the program in question.
For example, to check out Firefox, go to '''''[https://www.mozilla.org Mozilla.org]'''''. 
It’s very sad, but many of the software down-loaders /
installers will trick you into installing not only their program,
'''''but other programs as well'''''.
You have heard of the '''''fine print in shady contracts''''', right?
Well, some installers you need to look at the '''''itsy bitsy teeny weeny fine print'''''.
You are thinking you are giving the installer permission to install the program you want by using
the '''''recommended''''' option. But if you use the '''''Manual Option Instead''''',
you discover all kinds of stuff that '''''you do not even know what it is or what it does'''''.
From now on, everyone needs to '''''Use The Manual Option''''' to put a stop to this.

Need help with Separator page

I need some help to figure out a couple of things about separator pages on HP printers.
The company that I work for has quite a few HP printers on Windows Server 2012/R2, so we use the Universal PCL6 drivers on all of them to have some consistency.
The last few days I've been messing around with the standard windows separator page (sysprint.sep). I have managed to modify it almost to my liking, by including contact details to IT support etc.
I also added 2 company logos to it with postscript. These display fine if i make the file a .ps file and open it with a viewer such as Evince, but when i revert the file back to a .sep file and set it as the Separato Page for my printer the images do no
print anymore (everything else prints just fine). Do you guys know if i am even able to print postscript images as part of a Separator Page?
My other question is, does anyone know of any way that i can obtain the Printe's Name to insert into the Separator Page? I could only find commands for Username, Domain, JobID, Date and Time.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Stefano

The advantage of the 'F' command ('\F' in your case) is that you can 'import' a raw PostScript file and not have to worry about having each line preceded by a 'L' command. The 'F' file can contain arbitrary PostScript, not just the images,
so you can position your images however you like. If you really want to simplify things, the .sep file can literally be just the two lines:
/Fpath-to-real-sep-page-in-raw-postscript-format
and then you no longer have to mess with the .sep page formatting requirements as the 'real sep page file' is just raw PostScript.
One possible reason why the image is not printing is that the hex-format image data lines may be too long for the 'L' command. You could try breaking them into more lines. PostScript itself doesn't care how many lines it takes. The
line length is a non-issue if you use the 'F' command (for just the image data or for the entire sep page).
Why do you want the printer's name? It's usually pretty obvious (to the end user) which printer is being used because it's where the printed output resides. :-) There are ways to 'store' a 'name' in the printer itself and the sep page can
then pull that name from the printer, but if the printer is reset it can lose that 'name'. You can also hardcode the name in the .sep file itself, but that means you'd need a unique .sep file for each print queue.

Separator Page

I recently purchased a Laserjet 200 Pro MFP. We needed a new printer anyway, and I wanted to replace my flatbed scanner with something a little more convenient for document scanning as I'm trying to go paperless with my files.
So now I have a stack of bills and statements from the month that I'm ready to scan. Each document ranges from 1 - 4 pages and I have about 20 of them. However, I haven't been able to find anything anywhere online about how to print out a separator page to use. I searched the forum for "separator page" as well but didn't come back with anything very relevant.
Could someone please tell me how to put my whole stack of documents into the feeder and have it scan them and automatically separate them into separate multi-page pdfs?
Thanks,
Nicholas

Hi @Nicholas_B,
I can help you with saving multiple documents scans as one file.
Open the HP Scan software, click on the link for Advanced Settings, on the File tab, uncheck Create a separate file for each scanned page. You would have to scan them in groups individually.
What is the full name and product number of your printer? How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
There are several Laserjet 200 series printers.
What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.

Have a nice day!

Unwanted separator page

Hello all,
I have a Photosmart C7250 and I have it hooked up wirelessly to two different computers. My laptop, which is a Dell XPS M1330, works flawlessly, but the from my desktop, which is an HP Pavillion m8020n media center PC, the printer spits out a blank page between EVERY page printed. I have checked ALL of the settings and preferences and compared between the two computers and both are set exactly the same. This is truly an annoying issue and have been able to find no solution anywhere! Can sombody PLEASE help me with this?!?
Thanks a million,
Scott B.

In the bottom right corner of the Design tab there is a drop down that switchs between page view and web view. Change it to web view to remove the page break. The page breaks in eah view are independent of each other.

Separating pages to be emailed?

Hi
I want to separate pages from a PDF file with 10 pages. Is there a way to separately save the pages so I do not have to email the entire document? Help Please

Hi,
You would require Adobe Acrobat to perform this task. Acrobat has feature to extract the pages from a PDF. For more information please visit http://www.adobe.com

Annoying single page view in full screen mode

I have checked the “Enable Scrolling” in the “View/Page Display” menu to have a continuous page flow (with gaps between pages) and avoid page bouncing when moving from the bottom of a page to the top of the next page. It works as expected when in windowed mode but not in full screen mode.
- Why isn’t it possible to have continuous page flow (with gaps between pages) when in full screen mode? It is as if Adobe Reader disregards the “View/Page Display” menu preferences and always reverts to “Single Page View” when in full screen mode!
- Also it would be nice to have an option to display a vertical scroll bar to the extreme right of the screen in full screen mode to be able to quickly scroll the document.
These two features are the primary ones that make me still using Foxit-Reader instead of Adobe Reader albeit Foxit-Reader has a lower PDF rendering quality.
Regards
ZC.

I have same problem.
In Full Screen Mode , most functions are *NOT* working. For example , Show/Hide Menu Bar , Show/Hide Toolbars etc. Even use keyboard shortcut , they just *NOT* working.
I am wondering is any chance to make Show/Hide Menu Bar , Show/Hide Toolbars working on Full Screen Mode ?
At least , please add some keyboard shortcut to change Page Display .
Best Regards,
Adobe Reader version : 10.0.3
OS version : Mac OS X 10.6.7

Annoying align page error message

Hi,
I replaced a print cartridge and now every time I turn on the printer it asks to align the page. I am wasting both paper and ink because of this. How can I get this message to stop appearing?

Hello sofelia,
Which printer do you have?
This could be related to contaminated contact plates on the cartridges or in the carriage. You could try removing the cartridges and then clean the copper plates on the cartridges and in the carriage (do not clean the underside of the cartridges as that might damage the printhead).
With some printers (PSC 1100, 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500 series and a few more) you need to scan the alignment page after it's printed. On other printers you can bypass the alignment, see this page for more information:
