B209 - long pause when printing last page

I have a b209 printer setup as a wireless printer. It communicates with my computers but when printing multipage prints it will print fine for the first page but on the last page it prints a couple of lines and then stops printer for about a minute and then starts printing again and completes.
This happens printing from both a WindowsXP and Windows 7 machine. I've loaded the latest software from the web site and still experience the same problems.
TIA for any help with this.

OK, that's a pretty elaborate system! The first thing that came to mind is all of the devices the packets have to go through to get to your printer.
Anyway, I assume you have only one device acting as DHCP server (it looked that way, but want to make sure that the Uverse was not involved).
Let's set a static IP address for the printer:
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). If you know what that is, set an IP outside that range but no higher than 254 (the last number in the address). This is important.
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Leave the gateway and DNS blank.
- Click 'Apply'
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.
If this does not work, do the same thing only enter the gateway IP for gateway and first DNS entry, leave the second blank.

Long pause when printing from phaser 6360dn

We have a Mac that was recently upgraded to Mac OS X 10.8.3 Mountain Lion and moved to a different location. The mac is now connected directly to a Xerox Phaser 6360DN via a usb cable. When any document is printing, there is a pause of about 3 minutes before the printer starts going. Here are some facts about this issue:
1) Before the Mountain Lion upgrade, this particular mac was able to print fine to the printer over the usb without a pause. The Mac had Mac OS X 10.6.8 before
2) When the pause occurs, and if you look at the printer spool, there are two jobs listed. The first says "Setting up printer" or something similar and the second job is the actual document being printed. The pause is caused by the first job which takes 3 minutes. After that is done, the printing of the document occurs pretty quickly. As a workaround, if you click the "x" next to the the first job to delete it, it will move to the next fairly quickly and complete the printing. However, as you can imagine, this becomes a pain quickly especially when you need to print lots of documents.
3) When printing in Microsoft Word or other Office apps, clicking the direct print button results in no pause and fast printing. Going through the menu and selecting "print" results in the pause. Other applications don't behave that way. For some reason, using the print button in Word bypasses the part of the process that results in the pause.
4) When in the printer spool/info folder, clicking on the get printer supplies information button results in an error that the printer is not responding.
I'm thinking there is some communication problem between the two devices that causes the hang. How to solve it I don't know yet. I have tried the following:
1) delete printer and reinstall printer
2) download latest drivers from Xerox and do 1 above
3) Used the reset printing system button to zap everything and do 1 above
4) switch usb ports and use different cables
5) turn off printer sharing and printer notifications
6) no luck with any of these fixes
Not sure what to try next. Please help

We have a workaround for now. Using the generic postscript driver bypasses whatever initial operations were being done, so printing is much faster. However, occassionally the printer outputs pure data instead of the expected output. That's ok for now, but still would like to get the driver to work somehow. I might try the Gutenprint drivers to see if that makes any difference. Was also thinking of installing the usbtb alternative usb backend to see if that makes a difference. Thanks for the input.

This first job - the setting up printer one - is a status check of the printer. It is being sent by the 10.8 printing system to ensure the printer has paper and toner before the print job is sent. The fact that it is sent is most likely due to the Xerox driver, or more appropriately the PPD. To check this is the case, open System Information and select Printers in the left column. In the top right pane, select the Phaser 6360. The bottom right pane will show information about the printer. There will be an entry called Printer Commands. Next to this entry, do you have some text, such as Report Levels?

The Word Print icon in the toolbar (ribbon) is by default set to "Print One Copy". This setting bypasses the printer driver settings and submits the print job to the default printer. So as the printer settings are not called, then there is no status check performed and printing is not delayed.

The Supply Levels section of Options & Supplies does not work for every brand / model of printer. And even if it was working on 10.6, does not mean it will work on 10.8.
Ultimately this will be up to Xerox to fix. You should report it to them when you get a chance, although don't be surprised if they tell you it is up to Apple to fix. The answer to that is Xerox makes the driver, not Apple, so Xerox needs to fix it. Also, other brands are not having the same issue so this points the finger back at Xerox.

With newest Mac OS, Lion, a print preview is no longer available when printing a page directly from the website.

When I used the operating system, Snow Leopard, there was no Firefox. Lion is the latest operating system and Snow Leopard was the latest system before Lion was introduced. Also, there is no problem when I use the native browser, Safari.

Doc: I've had a similar experience, and here are the details, investigation, and a workaround. My printer is a Brother MFC-645CN, and I'm using Snow Leopard (10.6.8) on a 2010 iMac quad i5 connected to the printer over my ethernet LAN. Are you using a Brother printer?
Firefox has shown this kind of nasty issue for the past six months or so. It seems to be related to the imaging algorithms in Preview when dealing with Firefox (now at v.12) and the Brother printer -- the screwy second page (and beyond) show up skewed and up-sized when doing a print preview also. No such problem seen in Safari or anything else. I am not currently using any other Mozilla apps on this Mac besides Firefox.
A few months ago I tested printing from my administrator account and a different user account. Firefox printing was completely normal and as expected. When I went back to my main user account, back came the funky second page.I went through extensive troubleshooting to try to chase it down, systematically removing and replacing apps and preferences and many other Library files related to printing, Brother drivers, Firefox, and Preview. Nothing helped. Solution was to migrate my user files to an account where the printing problem wasn't happening. I deleted the problem user account.
Everything was fine for about three weeks, and then with no warning, printing was back to the bad second page, just as before. I am stumped, and I'll let smarter people try to figure it out. I use Firefox a lot, and it's possible that some add-on setting is interfering, or a web page I visited turned the printing funky again. I just don't know.
Also checked on a Mac G4 running Leopard (10.5.8) and Firefox 3.6.28. No printing/preview problems there.
Now, for the work-around I am currently using -- print each page separately, one at a time. Page 1, then page 2, etc. Preview and printing looks completely normal. Hope this works for you until the bug is located and squashed for good.

Printing last page (Purchase order Terms) in SMARTFORMS

Dear SAP Gurus,
Our Purchasing unit would like to print purchase order terms and conditions after the end of Purchase order. Initially I had two pages (First and Next). The following are the steps I followed to print last page with Purcahsing terms.
1. Create Command line at end of Main window in First and Next page and in command line output options select Go to page as Last page.
2. Under last page, I have a secondary window which prints a text. (this is a long text and cant be printed using secondary window. I need Main window to print the text as it would be continous)
The following are the problems I am facing.
1. By placing command line at end of Main window, data in secondary window after the Main window are not printing.
2. Purchase terms Text placed in the last page under Main window is not printing. Text placed in last page under secondary window is printing but instead of 8 pages of terms text only one page is printing.
How can I handle this.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Shanthi

Hi Shanti,
From what I've understood from you post, you may try putting the command in the secondary window (which comes after the MAIN Window) of the first page. In the command give Goto Page ->NEXT.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Ranjith

Intermitent pauses when loading JSP page.

Solaris 7
Weblogic V5.1 SP5
Apache 1.3.12
Mod_wl_ssl.so
JDK 1.3
Hi,
We have two environments running very similar configurations.
The first is a test environment with an Ultra5 running as an Apache server
and an Ultra 10 as the weblogic server. Two databases are currently being
used one is an SQL and the other Oracle.
The second is our production site, and is the same apart from the hardware,
the Apache system is a Netra and the Weblogic server is a 220R. (There are
some other differences, physical location etc)
On the test site everything is fine but on the live site we are experiencing
a long pause when loading pages. This happens every 10-15 times a page is
loaded, and only on JSP pages. It seems to stop after loading part of the
page and around 30-60 seconds later the rest gets loaded.
This is very easy to reproduce just by hitting the home page of our site
about 10 times.
I'm going to swap out as many network components at our co-location as
possible, but I'm wondering if anybody else has experienced a similar
problem.
Regards
Steve Haigh

It turned out to be a faulty network component!! Strange behaviour though.

Not to print last page in Script

Hi Experts,
I am having a Z-script for tcode F110.
There i don't want to print 'last' Page in the form.
The program which i s calling driver program is a standard sap include RFFORI06 calling
'Last ' page with window 'Summary'.
As its a standard include i can't make any changes in driver program.
Please help.
Thanks in advance for your support.

The 'last' page and its window is getting called from a standard sap include as mentioned above.
Even if i will delete 'last' page but as start_form is calling 'last' page it will generate a blank page irrespective
of the page 'last' is deleted.
I have even tried to do so by generating a test program and calling the script.
Kindly advice.

How to print last page in smartforms

Hi,
In my smartform i have 3 pages (FIRST, NEXT & LAST). FIRST contains some header detail and items. NEXT contains rest of items and this page would be repeatable if more item comes. now after NEXT i want to print LAST page. How to achieve this. PLease let me know. I looked into forum but haven't get exact answer so far.
Rgds

Hello,
According to your scenario you are having 4 orders and each order has to print seperately with the last page .right?
The best soln would be,
1) create another internal table same as the one you have and delete adjacent duplicates using order, so you will have 2 internal table one with 4 orders (it-1)and other with all the items(it-2).
2) In the driver program ,
CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
 control-no_open = 'X'.
 control-no_close = 'X'.
 output-tdnewid = 'X'.
 PERFORM ssf_open.
CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_OPEN'
EXPORTING
ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS =
user_settings = ' '
MAIL_SENDER =
MAIL_RECIPIENT =
MAIL_APPL_OBJ =
output_options = output
control_parameters = control
IMPORTING
JOB_OUTPUT_OPTIONS =
EXCEPTIONS
 formatting_error = 1
 internal_error = 2
 send_error = 3
 user_canceled = 4
 OTHERS = 5
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
LOOP AT it-1.
 CALL FUNCTION l_fm_name
endloop.
CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_CLOSE'.
2) In the smartform
 FIRST -> next page -> NEXT
 Beneath the main window -> Table, put Command - Goto new page as LAST.
 NEXT -> next page -> NEXT
 LAST -> Next page -> Blank
I hope this will work as I have done a similiar dev.

Any way to get more than 100% zoom on print jobs when printing multiple pages?

I know how to increase the size of a print job, when I am printing one page at a time. But when I go to print 2 pages at once (the multiple page print function), there are always large margins around the page. I'm ok with saving paper and printing up two pages, but it seems silly to see small print and wide blank margins. Is there any way to increase the print zoom, when printing multiple pages per sheet of paper?

I once overshot the limit by marking too many photos to fit within 99 pages, but I could never figure out how to fool the application and had to give up trying to add those 14 extra photos.
I asked a friend (who practically lives in Terminal) if he had any way of modifying that limit, but he reminded me that if their printing services are set up to bind books and bill for only 99 pages, fooling the application might be useless if the service only prints me a 99 page book and discards the additional pages.
I can understand that you wouldn't want to let people print 1000 page books, but I sent feedback anyway to allow me to increase the limit. Anyone know of any service that lets you print beyond iPhoto's limits?

HP Officejet Pro 8610 All-in-One Printing Preference does not have Print Last Page First option

HP Officejet Pro 8610 All-in-One printer: Printing Preference missing Print Last Page First option. Print lots of multipage documents. Spending enormous amount of time resorting pages.
Prior to this printer? .... grab printed stack - staple - DONE!
Now? Have to resort every document!
Anyone out there have a solution?

Reply to mkjohnson42. It doesn't matter what application I'm in. The option is NOT there. Just to confirm, I started from Word 2010, Excel 2010, a web page using Internet Explorer, Foxfire and Chrome. Plus, I did the old stand-by of going to Printers and Devices>Preferences. Under Preferences I have the choice to print on both sides of paper but NO Print Last Page First. I REALLY did check ALL of this before resorting to the Community. So, I really don't understand your question. Sorry.

Gray Dots when printing in Pages/Numbers

When printing from Pages (v 5.0.1) and Numbers (v 3.0.1), there are tiny gray dots all over the page. How do I get rid of these?

I have the same problem. It doesn't show dots on screen or when I choose "Open PDF in Preview" from the Print dialog box, but when I print they still appear.
It also happens with Mail, Numbers and Keynote but not with TextEdit or Preview (unless I exported the document as a PDF from Pages or Numbers).
It is infuriating.

Won't print last page

Has anyone else had this problem?
HP 5200DTN won't print last page of any document.

I have this same problem and can't figure it out. It started roughly a couple months ago.
I did some testing in Word and found that it would not print the last page if I had a page break in the document, but would print the last page if I removed the page break. However, it also happens often even if the document doesn't have a page break.

Xerox 8560DN pauses when printing from MacBook Pro (Maverick update)

Xerox 8560DN pauses when printing from MacBook Pro using the printer connected to a Windows XP machine. The printer is fully shared, however when I print, it goes to PAUSE. It displays...Ready to print > Printing > and it pauses.
The Maverick update has changed lots of unecessary setups. What was perfectly working before, not it causes problems.
Any solution?

Carolyn Samit,
I did it several times without any success. I think that the Maverick update damaged something.
I also deleted, added and change all settings... Not working. Xerox does not have a Maverick driver available, but today apple released a Xerox printer software update (Version 2.3). After the installation, nothing changed.
