AR812 print landscape with ghostscript

hallo,
printing landscape pages under CUPS with PCL-filter (foomatic-rip)
cannot be rotate on paper and then the right site is cuted.
This effect is also reproducible with printing in a file and
viewing with a PS-viewer e.g. gv or gsview - page cannot be
rotate for A4 (or letter) format.
Reason is the roll setpagedevice statement for printers ,
that only from physical devices is executed but is not
recognized from ghostscript. Is there any workaround ?
Particularly by printing of screen presentations with
multiple pages per sheet it is very worrying - here is also
the acroread preview already confusing, since the real output
is in portrait mode but the preview in landscape mode !
Thank you Matthias

OJP 8000 Wireless won't print landscape with Quicken 2008 Deluxe R9

Hi All,
I've been using Quicken for years with a HP LaserJet 4L in the "Landscape" mode.
My new OJP 8000 will print landscape from other programs, but not from Quicken.
Computer is:
HP Pavilion dv9500 Notebook
Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2
32-bit OS
Printer is:
Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless Printer - A809n (C9297A)
Install disk is: Officejet Pro 8000 A809, Vista Version 12.0.0
Quicken is:
2008 Deluxe R9
Thanks for any help,
Scott

I don't have a solution for you, but I feel that I should mention that Quicken has all kinds of printing problems since last years release. I've basically given up on Quicken as a result. I have found that with online banking I don't need to use Quicken as much as I used to. It's really a shame that a software company should screw up a really good product over the years, but that's exactly what they did. They have known about these printing problems for the last 2 years and have done little to solve them. Soon I will be uninstalling it from my computer.

Duplex printing issues with landscape orientation

I have read through all of the previous questions, and can't seem to resolve my problem here.
I am using Acrobat 8 Professional (8.2.2). I have created a PDF from a Powerpoint presentation. I need to be able to send this to someone else and have them view it on screen with the correct orientation, and also duplex print it correctly, as all of our company printers default to duplex printing (to save paper). However, since the person who prints it is going to staple it in the upper left hand corner, it really needs to be duplexed to open along the left edge (the short edge of the paper).
When I first bring up the print screen the document has the incorrect orientation; i.e. it shows a thumbnail of an 8.5 x 11" page in portrait orientation, and my content is reduced in size to fit the 8.5 width. I think this is really the issue at hand--for some reason, even though the page is set up in Powerpoint as a 8.5x11 landscape oriented document, when it exports to the PDF format, that orientation doesn't hold.
Anyway, it seems that no matter what settings I try to adjust, it doesn't seem to work. I have toggled "Auto-Rotate and Center," I have toggled the duplex settings in the PDF document properties. I have toggled the duplex print settings on my printer driver between "Open to Left" and "Open to Top." None of it seems to make any difference in the final printout--basically what comes out of my printer is a document that is rotated to print out as if it was a portrait page, and is bound on the left edge (so each second page is printed upside down, when I am looking at it in landscape orientation).
The only work-arounds I can think of would be to rotate every other page in the PDF so that when it printed it printed correctly. However, then the PDF would not be readable on the screen. I could generate two separate versions of the PDF, one marked for print, and the other for viewing--but that is a real waste.
Does anyone have any suggestions here? I am looking for a way either to get the PDF software to "understand" that this document is a landscape document from the get-go (then it SHOULD work to duplex print correctly with the "Open to Left" setting), or maybe create a custom print setting for this document that allows me to rotate every other page as it is printed, but that doesn't rotate the pages on the screen.
I hope this is all clear...and that someone can offer some advice.
Thanks!
Melise
P.S. Just in case it makes any difference, I am running Windows XP Professional and am using the Microsoft Office 2007 software package. Because the company has multiple different printers throughout the company, I need a solution that will work without regards to the specific printer driver.

I am having the exact same issue. The setting of "Auto-Rotate and Center" has no affect.
Do I have to rotate the odd pages 180 so they are upside down in the PDF, but print correctly?
I am using Acrobat 9 Pro V. 9.3.3 in Win 7 Pro 64, to HP CP6015XH (colour laser).

Unable to print PDF with landscape orientation

This print problem seems to be unique only to Mac when printing a PDF from Acrobat or Reader. All the pages come out in portrait (tall) orientation when the doc orientation is landscape and all the print setup is checked for landscape printing. I have a Xerox Phaser 7760DX printer. I can print the same doc without any issue via my pc, but cannot print landscape via my Mac, which makes me wonder if this is an Acrobat or Xerox issue. I did already update to latest Phaser 7760DX driver, but still same result. Thank you in advance for your advice.

Dont know the answer, but getting auto email notifications which I want stopped. Anyone know how? (I'm getting them from a bunch of messages)
Thanks

Auto adjustment of page orientation causes printing issues with documents that have a page width greater than its page height.

Hi,
Since an upgrade from Word 2003 to Word 2010, we are experiencing printing issues with certain
documents that have a page width greater than its page height.
In Word 2003, it was no problem to set the page width greater than the page height while setting the page orientation to "portrait".
In Word 2010, this seems impossible: despite leaving the page orientation to "portrait", if one changes the page width/height as stated,
Word 2010 automatically adjusts the orientation to "landscape". Resetting the orientation to "portrait" will flip the page's width/heigth settings.
This behaviour causes printing problems: the page prints out 90° rotated.
I do not believe this is a printer driver issue: I tried several different printer drivers, and all give the same (bad) result. Setting the printer driver's page orientation settings (before printing) makes no difference, as
Word 2010 seems to force the page orientation settings.
Inserting the documents 90° rotated is not an option, since it causes problems with the printing margins.
This is very annoying, since we have to print official documents of a municipality (driver's licences).
Is there a workaround for this issue?

HP LaserJet 1018 not printing landscape on index cards

I regularly print on 3 x 5 index cards with this printer. In fact, this is the reason I purchased the printer. Just this morning, I am suddenly unable to print landscape on it. Any file set up in landscape will run through the printer and come out blank. However, if I change the set up to print portrait, my prints are perfect. Hm...does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi. Did you ever figure out why you can't print 3x5 index cards in landscape mode on your HP printer? I'm having exactly the same problem. I can print the document on ordinary 8.5x11, but not on index cards. It was working a couple of weeks earlier. I've tried all the obvious solutions but so far nothing works. Thanks.

Printing problem with Summarize Comments?

Printing problem with Summarize Comments in Pro 10.1.6? When I print, I only get the number boxes on one page and the comments on the next page. The numbered boxes don't show up on the actual image itself.

Um I dont know if im doing something daft but I tried this like you said
PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
printJob.setPrintable(this);
if(printJob.printDialog()){
try {
          PageFormat pageFormat = printJob.defaultPage();
          if (pageFormat.getOrientation() == PageFormat.PORTRAIT) {
          landscape = 0;} else {
               landscape = 1;}
          System.out.println("THE ORIENTATION IS "+ landscape);
          printJob.print(); }
catch (Exception PrinterExeption) { PrinterExeption.printStackTrace();}
and it doesnt seem to work as I tried it both as landscape and portrait in the print dialog but landscape is always 0.
cheers

Printing landscape pdf to Linux CUPS shared printer

I'm having a problem printing landscape pdf documents from Preview to printers on my Linux CUPS server. Documents print portrait style, with the right side of the document cut off. This occurs in both 10.4.11 and 10.5.2.
Using Adobe Reader or printing the pdf from the command line using lpr work correctly to the shared printer.
Printing directly to the printer (not through the server) is the only way Preview prints it right.
My CUPS server is:
Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy
CUPS 1.3.7

I'm having the same problem. I have a Lexmark x9350 that is shared through Airport Extreme.

Firefox default to printing landscape and can't change it. I am using OSX 10.6.4

At some point in time, FF has decided to print everything in landscape. Chrome and Safari do not have this problem. Under page setup, the orientation is portrait but it will still print landscape.

Firefox 4 versions and later do not run on a PowerPC Mac.
Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

For an unofficial Firefox 8 compatible version (TenFourFox) that runs on PowerPC Macs with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:

Please Help: Left Columns Cut off Printing Landscape Dynamic Table

I have designed a form with a table designed to print landscape on a letter size paper. The form has an Add row button creates rows that can span multiple pages. The form prints correctly in the PDF Preview tab but when tested with adobe reade 11 the table cuts off on the left for all pages except the first when mutilpe pages are printed. If one page is printed then it prints ok. This only happens in adobe reader 11 when the "auto portrait/landscape" is selected in the print dialog. If "Landscape" is selected instead of "auto portrait/landscape" the pages print ok. I am using Designer ES2. I can't depend on the users of the form to make the orientation landscape before printing. Does anyone know the solution to this problem?

Try unchecking everything, You don't really need to specify something... it should work by itself... if it ain't working I could take a look at it if you wouldn't mind sharing the pdf.

Can't Print Landscape from Crystal Reports Viewer XI

Open a Crystal Report that prints landscape.
Save report with data.
Open that report with Crystal Reports Viewer XI. Report will display landscape.
Click Print..OK
Viewer will attempt to scale output to fit on portrait paper, with varying degrees of success.
Checking the properties of the report from Viewer (File...Report Properties...) shows a "Page Orientation" of "Landscape" and a message "Page Orientation and size defined by the application (no page information set by report author)."
Any ideas on how to get the report to print landscape? It prints that way from Crystal Reports XI.

Hello Glenda,
as you refer to the legacy technology 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,

Is Airport Wireless printing possible with Officejet 4315

I am thinking of getting one of these Officejet 4315s. I'll be using it as a regular sheet feed fax, wireless not necessary, but will need wireless printing.
On IFelix's Unofficial printer compatibility list with AEBS and AX, the Officejet 4215 is listed, as long as only the older drivers are used (thanks HP for those upgrades); so i'm wondering if the 4315 is just a newer evolution of the 4215 and if it too will print wirelessly with AEBS/AX, whether with old or new HP driver or with HPIJS. Any information or opinions about this?

Hi Judy, I posted this in another thread about using an HP Officejet 4215 but have pasted it below since you might find it useful. I have used my 4215 wirelessly via USB on my Airport since OS 10.2 and it works great. Lost it due to my 10.5 upgrade for a few days but now it's fine again. Best of luck.
The solution to using your HP 4215 (and MANY others) with an Airport (print only, of course) is found here:
http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs
You need to install 3 items to make the printer print through the Airport:
1. hpijs-2.7.10-UB
2. Foomatic-RIP
3. ESP Ghostscript
Everything is found or referenced at the above Open Printing link. In fact the hpijs driver will not install at all unless it finds both #2 and #3 so do them first (or try it and find out for yourself ).
It's all explained at the link but here is how I did it:
Installed the 3 items above then go into System Prefs, then Print & Fax, then find and double-click on your printer, select Info, then select Driver, then find the Foomatic/hpijs driver that is recommended for your printer. Voila! Airport printing works again, under 10.5.1 even! Or you could wait for HP to write a new driver...
Hope this helps. Good luck!

Button to print landscape

I have a report that when run fits on the screen, however, when I print I loose columns on the right side. If I print landscape it fits. I prefer not to change the print settings, my desire is to do this programmatically with a button that when clicked would change the orientation to landscape, and print the report. Is this even possible? Has anyone tried this?
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Importing EPS to PDF with Ghostscript looses the grouping

Hi,
I used Ghostscript to import a EPS to a PDF file and the grouping EPS file has seem to be loosing while generating the PDF. Can someone let me know whether the grouping can be retrained? I would like to know whether the "grouping" "ungrouping" is a specific feature in Illustrator which can't be retrained.
The following are the links to the EPS and PDF file for your reference.
Dropbox - survivor book.eps
Dropbox - survivor_book.pdf
If the grouping can indeed be retained while converting with Ghostscript, please let me know how to do the same.
Or if there are other ways to convert to PDF using which the grouping can be retained, let me know the same too.
Thanks,
Leena

Sorry for the confusion, I will explain more about the relation between Illustrator and Ghostscript. I am working on a web application which allows the users to create designs which can be used for custom printing. The application allows the user to upload EPS files as artworks, add custom text etc and in the end the generates a PDF which will be shared with the printer.
We are using Ghostscript for importing the EPS files and creating the final PDF file which includes the uploaded artwork(s) and any text(s) the user has added.
Now the problem that we've faced while importing the EPS file using Ghostscript is that, it removes the "grouping" that was present in the EPS file while converting to the PDF file. So my question was whether you can help me by giving some pointers to retain the group by using tools such as Ghostscript. Please let me know the appropriate forum where I can ask similar questions.
I had asked this question in Ghostscript forum but didn't get a clear answer.
Thanks,
Leena
