BUG in VDI 3.1 printer settings per pool?

We make use of VDI 3.1
Our users are directly connected to virtual Windows XP machines.
For a number of users I want to make use of an USB printer connected to the SR.
I'v created a queue:
# /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p printer01 -v /tmp/SUNWut/units/IEEE802.<mac-address>/dev/printers/Prolific_Technology_Inc.2305-202
# /usr/bin/enable printer01
# /usr/sbin/accept printer01
I opened a regular solaris session on the SR and tested if the printer with the "HP LaserJet 6P" gets installed in the VM with the following command:
/opt/SUNWuttsc/bin/uttsc -r printer:printer01="HP LaserJet 6P" wxpvm
That worked.
So i opend the Sun VDI managment interface and went to Pools, selected a pool, tab settings, checked Use Customized settings
Saved settings and opened the "Edit Sun Ray RDP Settings"
I added a printer + driver combination like:
printer01="HP LaserJet 6P"
Because it is the only printer it becomes the default printer.
I put my token in the SR and from the desktop selector screen I select a VM from the pool I've added the printer to.
The SR tries to connect but after a few seconds the VDI login screen reappears..
I tried again but the again after a few seconds the VDI login screen reappears..
I did some reading and after some time i've found a solution.
Because the printer i need is an default Windows printer the driver gets installed form c:\windows\inf\ntprint.inf
For the "HP LaserJet 6P" printer this file has a line:
"HP LaserJet 6P" = HPLJ6P.GPD ,Hewlett-PackardHP_La1EE3,HP_LaserJet_6P
I modified this file by adding an extra line to it like
"HPLaserJet6P" = HPLJ6P.GPD ,Hewlett-PackardHP_La1EE3,HP_LaserJet_6P
Then I went to the VDI administrator interface removed the printer i added earlier an added a new one:
printer01="HPLaserJet6P"
This time when i tried to connect to the VM i got logged in and the printer was installed like it was supposed to.
My conclusion is dat the VDI 3.1 scripts which reads the pool settings contain a bug.
A printerdrive containing a space " " is not handled like it should be
Has some one the same experience or has someone an updated script which I can use so that I can use the original printer driver description?

I tried with 6 GB RAM in the machine instead, when the machine was using 1.97 GB (according to the VDI interface), and it still comes out with the same error messages.
How about those iSCSI error messages I am getting? "Desktop Kubuntu 9.10 failed to start, probably due to failed iSCSI login, retrying..."
There shouldn't be anything else I should do besides activating the iscsitgtd service, is there?
I can see that the ZFS file system with the VM is shared through iSCSI:
root@vdi:~# iscsitadm list target -v
Target: rpool/8c09da3f-61f9-4250-b2b3-26a3308db734

            Status: onlineShould I see it be mounted somewhere?
Also, 'iscsiadm list discovery' shows me none of the discovery methods are enabled, but at least one of them should in order for the server to mount iSCSI, to my knowledge, shouldn't it?

  • Apparent Print Settings Bug PS 12.01.x64 Epson? OS 10.6.4?

    I don't know if the OS, or Epson driver is relevant, but there seems to be a "Print Settings" bug with various Epson printers as started in this thread:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3161279
    Pressing the Print Settings button makes the print button blink in the Print Dialog, but doesn't open the Print Settings window when the "Printer Manages Color" dialog is checked. The print driver works, but you can't manage the paper type etc.
    You have to change it to Photoshop manages color. Make the changes and switch back to Printer Manages Color.
    Yes, I downloaded the current Epson Drivers and tried booting PS in 32 and 64 bit mode.
    This looks like a bug.  If it's been reported previously, I apologize.

    The second Option+Eyeball click is a not a "show hidden layers" command, it goes to the previous state of visible layers... so if you opt+eyeball+click to just see one layer, then for whatever reason make another layer visible, or hide that layer and make another visible, or if you manually hid all but one layer, then that second opt+eyeball+click will appear not to work (if your expectation is to have all the layers become visible)
    Kind of a convoluted answer there!  But try that out and see if that is what you are experiencing.
    I think at one point, quite a few versions ago, the opt+eyeball+click was a "show this layer/show all hidden layers" command. But Adobe changed the behavior because the second opt+click would make every layer visible, including the layers you had intentionally hidden.

  • Safari doesn't remember print settings

    hi all
    i'm using safari 1.3.2 under panther, & i want to print a bunch of web pages with a layout of 2 pages of text per printed page. this works fine when i use the layout feature in the print dialog box, but the problem is that i have to do this every time. how can i get safari to remember my previous print settings? or is this possible?
    thanks in advance for any suggestions/comments!
    brian

    Hi Brian,
    I'm not on my Mac at the moment, but if memory serves, I believe after making the necessary customisation with regards to layout, paper handling, you can click on the 'presets' field and save your particular scheme for use in the future. I'm not sure if you can specify a user-created scheme as default but I'd imagine it's possible as well.
    I hope Tiger and Panther are similar at least in that respect. All the best!

  • Photoshop CS6 freezes with attempts to change printer settings

    (This problem also occurs with InDesign CS6, so I will post to that forum as well. First one to give me a solution gets my undying love and devotion appreciation.)
    My employer acquired a Canon 6010 printer with a Fiery print controller last year. I have no problems printing from my personal Windows laptop. 
    However, from my employer's iMac (OS X 10.6.8) I get the spinning beach ball of death at least 90% of the time that I open an existing document and attempt to change the printer settings. The only way out is via Force Quit. Inexplicably I can occasionally succeed in changing printer settings. I think the record was having to force quit the application 11 times. Not sure - I quit counting.
    So far our only semi-consistent work around: create a new document and copy and paste the contents from the existing document. Not cool. But sometimes the app freezes with brand new documents, thus destroying my work around anyway.
    Additional Information:
    I have installed all CS6 upgrades.
    Our technical support contractor recreated the problem and could not find any solution other than the work around.
    Canon says the problem is with the applications.
    This happens whether I attempt to change the printer settings immediately or make changes to the document first.
    It does not matter what other applications are running.
    Rebooting the system after the app freezes does not make it work.
    We cannot upgrade past 10.6.8 because of the age of the hardware. But CS6 is supposed to run on Snow Leopard.
    I have tested this with other applications, including some older Adobe software. It does not happen with Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, InDesign CS3, Photoshop CS3, Acrobat 8 Pro, Acrobat 9 Pro or Acrobat XI Pro.
    This happens whether the documents were created and saved on the Mac or on a Windows computer.
    Re-saving the documents and/or printer settings does not change the outcome. Once I restart the application Photoshop may remember the paper size, but doesn't remember duplex settings. (From another thread in this forum I suspect a corrupt printer preferences file.)
    Per the instructions in the other thread I reset the printing preferences by launching the app while holding down shift-control-command. That enabled me to change the printer settings one time. Every subsequent attempt brought back the spinning beach ball.
    No other employees report similar problems (including a few MacBook users). However, they do not use Photoshop or InDesign, nor do they typically change printer settings.
    Sorry if some of that is irrelevant - just trying to give you as much info as possible and tell you what I've tried already. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Bonnie

    Nanneri, my situation is similar in that creating the PDF and printing from that does take longer than just printing from InDesign and Photoshop.
    I finally got a Canon tech rep on site who understood my problem. Though we had tried reinstalling the drivers (as had previous Canon reps), this guy got it right. Neither Photoshop nor InDesign has locked up since - at least not for the Canon 6010. (Photoshop has locked up twice when I've attempted to print to a Canon iPF8300s wideformat that isn't on the Fiery. Restarting PS has fixed that.)
    Based on my experience, I would start with new drivers.
    FYI: I am having problems printing to a new Canon C7065 that also uses Fiery. But the problems vary and I haven't isolated the factors. Sometimes I get a printed error report. Sometimes it just doesn't print. But no more software lockups.
    In our case, I suspected our problems were related to having old hardware that can't be upgraded past OS X 10.6.8, which is the oldest OS compatible with both CS6 and the Fiery. But since you are on a newer OS, and a different printer, I'm beginning to wonder about the Fiery.
    Hope you find a solution soon. Keep us posted!

  • "Print Settings" are not stored in the print preset

    Hi everybody,
    It seems that, no matter how many times i save and update the profile, all the print setting (image size, sharpening, bit depth, color management, ...) are store within the preset, all but the Epson Driver settings, which have to be selected every single time.
    I really can't remember if this bug was present in 4.0 or not (I'm currently running 4.1 RC), but I'm quite sure it was working OK under 3.x. Here's the thing.
    I configure the printing settings and create. a profile: Profile1.
    I change all the settings and create a second profile: Profile2. The "Print Settings" settings are different, same printer, one for Color (Profile1), one for Advanced B&W (Profile2).
    I click on Profile1 (which was created with color Print Settings). Clicking on "Print Settings" or "Print", the printer settings selected under the epson driver is the ABW one (the one that belongs to Profile2).
    I reselect the correct setting from "Print Settings..." (Color).
    Click "Save" again.
    Righ-t click on Profile1 -> Update with current Settings. Setting seems to be saved.
    I then click on Profile2 and bam! The "Print Settings..." seems to be rverted to color instead of ABW.
    Update the correct settings, back to point #3
    Can you reproduce this? This behavior is vanishig the power of the "Print One" button, unless you constantly print with tha same Driver settings.
    Lightroom version: 4.1 RC [820174]

    Epson R3000, latest OS X Epson Drivers.

    I may have resolved the issue.
    The bug is there, because the name of the preset is kept as the last used, which is wrong.
    If you revert to the default "Default Settings" Epson preset, and change all the parameters as you like, then click Save and update the Lightroom preset, the settings are stored correctly.
    You'll have to check every preset (I have two dozens) and re-update with the new correct (or wrong?) Driver configurations, so that you could have faith again in the "Print One" button.

  • Printing PDF from IE9 doesn't honor printer settings

    I am trying to print a PDF from IE 9 and have it honor my printer settings (which are to store to my mailbox on our Canon iR3035 rather than print out).  It used to work fine.  I found the following bug listed in the release notes for Adobe Reader 10.1 however it clearly says the fix is to update IE which clearly isn't fixing the problem.  If I disable protected mode then it works but that isn't what we should have to do for this to work.
    Windows 7 Pro 32 and 64 bit
    Adobe PDF Reader 10.1.1.33 and 10.1.2.45
    Internet Explorer 8 and 9
    "Internet Explorer: With Internet Explorer running in protected mode, the user's printer settings are not honored, and the manufacturer's or deployer's defaults are used. This behavior occurs for IE7/IE8 with Acrobat/Reader 9.x or IE7 with Acrobat/Reader 10.x. The workaround is to disable Internet Explorer protected mode, or upgrade to IE8. [2874948]"
    Anyone know of another workaround other than turning protected mode off??

  • How can I get Acrobat to save my recent print settings?

    Hi there,
    Setup:
    Mac OSX 10.7.3
    Acrobat X 10.1.2
    Having recently upgraded to the most recent Acrobat pro I seem unable to save my most recent print settings. Previosuly, when I setup a page to be, for example, A2 landscape with some specific printer settings, it would then present these same settings when I went to print the same document or another open document. Now, in 10, I can setup the page settings and print settings, print a document, and then when I try and print again it has defaulted to the default page setup (A4 portrait) and default print settings.
    This is SO infuriating that I am hoping it is a bug (fixable?) and not just a massive failure of the software.
    Thanks for any advice/help.

    I'm not sure (since I always print to the same size), but try this:
    Click the Page Setup button at the bottom of the dialog. Ignore the warning screen. Set up the Page Setup in Mac OS X the way you like. At the top, choose Settings and select Save as Default. Then click OK.
    Click the Printer button at the bottom of the dialog. Ignore the warning screen. Set up the Print settings in the way you like using the popup menu which initially shows Layout. Then choose Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset. Then click OK.

  • Reader X 10.1.2 does not follow printer settings for printing multiple copies

    Hi,
    I recently installed ReaderX 10.1.2 and find that when I set multiple copies (e.g. 3 copies) in the printer settings, it was not reflected in the print dialog of Adobe ReaderX 10.1.2. There is no issue on previous version of Adobe Reader i.e. 8 & 9. I tested with several vendor drivers still also the same issue.
    Is this a bug in Reader 10.1.2 or Printer driver issue? Are there any workaround?
    Thanks alot

  • Redirected Printer Settings Greyed out and Missing Finisher & Trays

    Hi,
    I have added a new local printer . The printer has 2 additional trays and a finisher added.
    When I log onto the terminal server (server 2008 R2), the printer is redirected, but without the extra 2 trays and finisher. Most options are greyed out within the properties of the printer driver.
    Same as this issue here:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/2eeeb270-9cbb-4628-ad22-0ef3df6549d6/printers-not-redirecting-properties-and-preferences
    The driver is installed on the server and I have tried disabling the 2 GPO settings 'Use Terminal Services Easy Print printer driver first' and 'Use Remote Desktop Easy Print printer driver first'.
    Does anyone know a solution to this??

    Done a bit more digging and this is done 'by design' by Microsoft (I guess it's a limitation of their printing model, shame they haven't addressed this as the problem goes back to Server 2003 and still unresolved!).
    This KB explains the problem: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;243942
    I can now change the device settings for the redirected printer driver (as per KB article above), but after logging off the terminal server and logging back on, the redirected printer reverts back to the default settings.
    This is a massive problem for my customer as they are unable to use most of the features on their new copier (they work within a terminal server environment).
    Anyone else had this problem and been able to save changes to the redirected printer settings??
    Thanks in advance.

  • Help with print settings for Panoramas

    Hi,
    I use an Epson 2880 and I am trying to figure out the print settings for doing an 11 x 34in panorama print on 13" roll paper from Aperture 3.0.3. I finally got it to do one print properly, but the setup was totally counter intuitive and I can't reproduce it. I tried using "Custom" Paper size and setting it to 13" x 36", then using the landscape mode and setting the Image Size to 11 x 34". Any way I did this ended up with the image printing the wrong way on the paper. So I went back and picked "Roll" paper. This leaves only one field to fill in, which I presume is the paper width (it really didn't make this obvious in the dialogue.). Then I set the mode to Portrait, and made sure that the settings for the Image size were 11 x 34. It then printed fine. But when I went back to print another file, even though I had saved the settings, now I am presented with only one box for specifying the Image Size and there is no way to get it right again. HELP! The settings for this kind of print in Photoshop is also counterintuitive, but when you get it set right, and you know the settings, no problem reproducing it. I think maybe there is a bug in AP3 with regard to this sort of setup.

  • CS5 will not remember print settings

    Have upgraded from cs3 and cannot get cs5 to remember my print settings. In cs3 when I open a file to print it, the print driver automatically uses all the settings specified the last time I printed and saved the file. In cs5 the driver uses the settings specified for the last file printed. Anyone know how I can fix this?

    Gaarhhhh, of course it would be something so stupid and simple...something I'd never think of.
    Yeah, by docking I meant maximizing, I've been doing too much programming lately...
    And yeah, moving it to the other monitor and closing it without maximizing it worked, and what's more when I opened it the second time, I maximized it, then closed it, then opened it again and it opened, maximized, in the correct monitor.
    Still, seems like it could be a bug to me, CS3 always used to remember what monitor I opened the program in, whether I closed it maximized or not.
    Also, for completion's sake, I have an nVidia GeForce 8800 GTS with the most recent drivers (just installed them about 2 days ago.)
    Now I need to figure out how to turn off that stupid pixelation when I zoom in really far on an image...that's annoying.

  • Can't access print settings

    Hi.  Whenever I save a set of print settings for printing I can no longer access Print Settings again.  I searched the forum and found this response. This works but then the problem represents itself the next time I go to print.  It is rather tedious to reset all my preferences every time I want to print a document.
    Mac 10.6.8. I have the latest version of CS5 fully updated. Printing to an Epson 4800.
    Help appreciated.

    What i got from another thread, is that you have to launch PS while holding down a certain combination of keys (i think it was shift+alt+cmd), and it'll reset your preferences.
    It worked like a charm.
    gabevf had the correct answer! I tried it and everything is working fine now!
    The combination is indeed shift+alt+cmd and then double-click on the Photoshop app icon.
    Greets!

    32 versus 64 doesn't make a difference.
    "I've seen similar issues on httP://feedback.photoshop.com You should maybe post there to report the bug."
    Thanks.  I searched there and found what might be a workaround. I think this is simply a bug in CS5. If (as indicated in posts revealed by searching the forum you linked me to) I temporarily change Printer Manages Color to Photoshop Manages Color in the PS window, I can then access Print Settings again to make changes, Save and then change Photoshop Manages Color back to Printer Manages Color.
    Go figure.
    Thanks a lot for the help.
    What I don't understand is why everyone isn't experiencing the same issue.

  • Printer Settings change when switching between printers

    First time in the forum, so please be gentle.  I know little about Adobe.
    I am working with Windows XP (SP 2) machines (I know - should be at least on Windows 7, but can't change what my company has) and have Adobe Reader 8.1.2.  We have run into a "bug" of sorts. 
    Many of our locations (these are PCs all off-site) print labels (pdfs) with a Zebra brand printer where the labels are 2.25 by 4.00 inches.  The Zebra printers are always attached directly to the PCs where they create these labels.  Sometimes, they want to send the labels to a Lexmark printer that is attached at a Primary Server elsewhere.  When they do that, they make sure to choose "Fit To Printable Area" under Page Scaling when the Print Box comes up so that the 2.25x4.00 label is enlarged to fit on 8.5x11 inch paper.  The problem we run into is that right now, the default settings for these Zebra printers is 2x3 inches and Portrait.  We need them to be 2.25x4 and Landscape.  The user makes those settings changes and saves them and it used to be those settings hold once they save them.  We also have to change our Lexmark settings to "Letter - 8.5x11", otherwise it defaults to "Custom-4.88x21".  Recently, there's been this bug where if they save the settings for Zebra, print something, it's fine.  They switch to Lexmark, print to it with "Fit to Printable Area" it's also fine.  When they go back to the Zebra printer, suddenly the saved settings are gone and it's back to default.
    This also is happening in the reverse - if the user usually uses the Lexmark, but switches once to the Zebra, then back to the Lexmark, the settings have defaulted again.  Someone here said they remember seeing something like this before in regards to Adobe Reader.  Does anyone have any ideas?
    PS - I am creating a new image which will have the correct default settings for our needs so that hopefully this will not be an issue in the future.

    Hi BigRedEO,
    Thank you for posting on the forums. This seems more like a printer issue as it is not retaining the settings.
    Kindly try updating the drivers for the printer and check.
    Thanks,
