C4795 fails to print full pages, quits about 1/3 through first page and stops.

I purchased an HP Photosmart C4795 all in one device last summer, and used it rarely, but when I needed to use it again, it started giving me many many problems. I use ubuntu linux 10.04 and windows XP. It doesn't install right under XP, so I thought I'd just use linux when I needed to print, problem solved, but now it doesn't even print right under linux. When I unplug the power cord (the only way to shut it off, it locks up when I hit the power button), and then plug it back in, I can get a test page to print correctly once, then it fails. When I try to print a document, webpage, or pdf, it prints about 1/3 of the first page, fades to white, prints one blank page and cancels the job. Furthermore, the touchscreen pushes buttons on its own, which gets really annoying. If it matters, I plug the printer into my computer through the USB, but the little screen tells me that the wifi is on, even though it's not connected to a network and I can't find how to turn wifi off.
This is all after I dealt with an "incompatable print cartridge" problem despite having the orignal cartridges that came with the printer, forcing me to buy a brand new cartridge while the first one was still fine. ( I checked and cleaned the print heads)
I know it doesn't affect my printer, but this forum is difficult to register for and hard to find anything that may be related to my problem.
How do I fix this without buying a new printer? If I have to buy a new one, it won't be an HP, I use Brother HL-2170W printers in the lab and they have never given me problems, so I think I'll get one of those if I can't sort out these HP issues.

Hi - A couple of things to check:
- First, verify that the K8600 is the default printer driver or the selected printer in whatever program you're printing from (probably is, but wanted to double check).
- Second, in many cases this is a communication related issue (even if it is intermittent). Try disconnecting and reconnecting the USB cable from both the printer and computer. If that doesn't resolve it, I'd try another USB cable.
Hope that helps.

If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

When printing from websites, only first page prints correctly. Rest of pages lose about one quarter of the page on the right side.

Starting with the 2nd page, the pages are expanded and the whole right side of the page is gone. This only seems to happen on my Mac. I run Firefox on my PC and it prints correctly. At first I thought it was a problem with certain websites, but it always happens when I try to print out more than one page.

The 2nd page print scaling error has been an issue with Firefox on the Mac since 2011. People at Mozilla have not considered this a major problem. Try printing anything at less than 100% and you'll quickly see how every page after the first page being scaled wrong gets old real fast. The lack of a solution to this issue forced me long ago into using Safari as my primary browser. Good luck waiting until version 21 for a solution. Current release is 18.0.2.

Anytime I try to print in Firefox a Microsoft KB article that is 1 page, I always only get the first page.

Anytime I print any Microsoft KB article, I only get the first page worth of text. This is very troubling because the articles are typically long, and I only get 1 page. The second page always comes out blank (even though in IE it will print out multiple pages with all the text).
My specific example today is listed in the URL below. This example will only print to the "DIR" command, I don't get the full page printed out.
Anyone else have this problem? Anyone have a resolution? I hate having to hit up IE just to print a single article.
I updated to FF 8.01 just to make sure, and I have tried different printers and even computers, to no avail. Even the print preview has the issue, only the first page worth of text is printed and the second page is always blank (even if there are 3, 4, 5, etc pages of data to be printed).
I have also tried the Firefox Menu -> Print command, and the "on-page" print command. I have seen moderate success with highlighting all the text that I want to print and going to "Print-Selection" but it is ugly.
Any feedback or assistance is greatly appreciated.

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

SAP Script Check printing Layout, Line Items to display twice in First Page

Hi All,
This requirement is for US check printing Layout.
My Requirement is to display Items twice on the first page.
Eg : Main Window has 10 Items, I need to display all the Items at the bottom in another window at the bottom.
I can't create 2 Main windows in the first page, as the data from the Main window 1 overflows to Main window 2 in the first page.
I copied print program RFFOUS_C into a Z-version and try to implement the logic, however unable to print the line items in the bottom window.
Kindly give your valuable Inputs.
Thanks
Vinayak

Hi
I had the same request for a check form in Canada. I solved it by writing the line item output into variables and print these variables in a second window. It was ~10 hours of effort, not a real nice technical solution but it worked.
If you require I can send you a PDF of the sap script form definition. You can contact me at [email protected] Answers can take 1 week or more.
Best regards

Unwanted Blank Page When Table At Bottom of First Page

I have an RTF template which has a table with the typical for loop as the row generator and a totals row after that. There are no line breaks after the table, and the table's paragraph is set to single line spacing with 0 pt spacing before and after.
When the table reaches the bottom of the first page, but does NOT go onto the next page, there is a blank page at the end of the report. Any ideas on how to eliminate this?
Thanks in advance,
Kurz

I have an rtf template which is used to print output in pdf format. I have a table which has many rows which displays data for each record. In order to avoid breaking the page in between the rows of a record , i have added an outer table with single row and column and pasted the data table inside it and changed the row property of outer table to 'Allow Rows to Break Across Pages' to unchecked. It works fine only if the first record set length does not exceed a full page. IF the first record expanded to more than one page, it leaves a blank page at the very first and start the record at the second page. Can you please advise how to solve this issue. Its very URGENT please..

I have a two page letter. I want the first page to have my company letter head, but want the second page to start up at the top of the page without the letter head (just text) how do i do that? I also upgraded to the new Pages. Thank You

Hello!
I have a two page letter that I am putting together for my company.
I need the logo on the first page, but the next page(s) i do not want the logo and i do not want the indentation.
can someone help me solve this problem. Know it must be a quick fix
I also have the new version of Pages installed as well.

In Word, all you should have to do (with the document open, of course), is choose Insert > Page Numbers… . Choose how you want them to appear and click OK.
Make sure to save the file to retain the page number addition.

I only want the header on the first page . How do I remove it from the other pages but leave it on the first page only.

Uncheck the Headers (and Footers) settings in the Document Inspector.
Enter the 'header information' directly on the first page, or put it into a text box. There's no need to use Headers if you want the information on only one page.

Barry

How to specify Master page depending on odd or even first page

We've set up our books to delete empty pages and so that we have chapters starting on both odd and even pages. Also, the first pages of our chapters are formatted differently than the rest of the Left and Right Master pages. We would like to have two Master pages for the first page of the chapter, one for odd pages and the other for even, so that we can offset the margins, leaving a larger margin on the side towards the binding.
My question is how do I set up the book so that when it generates, if the chapter starts on an odd page, it automatically applies the Master page for odd first pages and when the first page is even, it applies the Master page for even first pages?
We have FramMaker 8 and are running it on Windows XP Professional.
Thanks,
Tim

Assuming that you want this to happen automagically, I'd use the system default Right and Left Master pages as your chapter opener pages because Frame will apply those automatically depending on how the pages and chapters fall in the book. Then set up the internal chapter pages with whatever other structure you're using and apply those internal masters to the normal content that as you go.
If you can't do that for some reason, I would look at doing it with a FrameScript that goes through the book and applies the alternating pages as a final production step.
You could set up the first tag in the chapter to call a specific master page, but that would be manual and could quickly go south if any chapters ahead of a given chapter change the pagination. It would have to be manual because a given tag can only call one master page -- there isn't a way to apply logic to call one or the other depending on the situation.

Since updating to ios 6 my ebooks won't work properly on my iPad. Skips from first page of a chapter directly to first page of next chapter. I'm very unimpressed

Since updating to ios 6 yesterday, my ebooks won't work properly. They jump from first page of one chapter onto first page of next chapter. Obviously missing all the pages in between. Anyone else having this problem? Help please....

I have a similar problem with Microsoft Visual C# 2010 Step by Step. This ebook worked fine until I upgraded to ios 6.

In trying to print 4 page web display with pictures, only first page pictures print but remaining text prints. What gives?s

See question.

I did all those things using Word and Paint to no avail. This raises another problem My PC came with Works bundled which suddenly stopped working, although it could handle graphics. MS had no solution so I deleted it and figured I could download it from MS.
Hah. Sure I could...for $130. So now I need a free word processing program which will handle graphics.
Any ideas?

Multi-page pdf documents show only the first page in safari

I suspect QT is the culprit, when I right-click the page and click About QT Plugin... nothing happens, when I then click the page [plugin failure] button shows up.
I have QT and QT7 Pro installed on my machine running OS X 10.6.8

You need to maintain the relative folder structure that was used when the links were created. For example, the first link in the catalog list (0.1A 3SH Standard), is pointing to a file called "TOC-01a.pdf" that is in a sub-folder called "0.1A" under the folder where the main PDF is located.
You should really try to get the entire thing as a zip file, or have the creators of the PDF change their links to ones that point to URLs, or you'll need to spend a lot of time on re-creating the folder structure for all the links in this file (which you don't have access to unless you have Acrobat, anyway)...

Anyone else having this problem?

Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.
