Can't print coupons

I browsed around and couldn't find this topic, so forgive me if this is a repeat.
I'm having trouble printing coupons from sites like coupons.com and redplum.com. I have installed all of the needed software, uninstalled, and installed again. I've also repaired all my permissions. What happens is it says it's printing, it goes to print, but then an error message pops up in the queue under status and it won't print.
Here are a couple examples of the error messages:
Error: /usr/libexec/cups/filter/cgpdftoraster failed
Error: /usr/libexec/cups/filter/CouponConvertor_v2 failed
Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

I can confrim that after trying everything else I could think of, the work-around of using AOL Desktop for Mac (I downloaded 1.7) works to print coupons.
I also sent an email to Coupons.com detailing the problem with Safari and Firefox (the only two browsers they list as being compatible with their software and Mac OS X) and letting them know about the work-around of using AOL Desktop for Mac, so it's not an incompatibility with OS X itself - just with their implementation with data from Safari and Firefox. I'd suggest everyone else do the same. Here's the link to their "Contact Us" page:
http://www.couponsinc.com/corporate/ContactUs.aspx
I just used bogus info for the phone number (555-555-5555), company name, etc (I did give them one of the email address I use for junk mail and subscription lists that I only rarely check).
I also selected "Problems with or Questions about Printing & Using Coupons" as the option on the "Please contact me to discuss" drop down, and then "I cannot print coupons" on the "Problem" dropdown menu that appears after that.
Hope this might help others.
Oh, and here's a link for AOL Dekstop for Mac:

  • Can't print coupons this time

    I printed coupons before, pretty sure it was after the lastest update, today I can't get them to print.  I was able to print something else so I know it's not a printer issue.  Any ideas what I need to do?  A friend is having the same issue after being able to print coupons as well so I know it isn't just me. 
    Thanks!

    I Think that the message about using a desktop computer speaks for itself. I know that some sites here in the USA use a coupon printer technology where the user has to download a helper application on their computer in order for the coupons to print. I have always had Mac computers and have had mixed results with those websites and their coupons, and most of the time the results were not good and I was unable to print. I know that doesn't help you, but I am wondering if the sites that you are trying to use work with the same kind of technology.
    IF you can print emails and the coupons are embedded into the emails, you should be able to print them.  I trust that your printer is an AirPrit. Printer?

  • Why is Firefox preventing me from printing coupons from all sites

    I can not print coupons from coupons.com and Target, and Publix and Firefox is the only thing that they have in common, and it all happened at the same time.

  • Some coupon sites aren't compatible with Firefox 4 so I can't print needed coupons. How can I revert to the old version of Firefox?

    When I try to print coupons at coupons.com and target.com, just to name two, I get a message saying they "We're unable to support coupon printing on your system at this time. The Coupon Print Activator is supported on Windows Operating Systems 2000, ME, XP, Vista and Windows 7 when used with Internet Explorer 6.x, 7.x and 8.x, Firefox 2.x and 3.x, Google Chrome 3.x and Apple Safari 4.x and on Apple Mac OS X and above when used with Safari 2.x and 3.x or Firefox 2.x and 3.x browsers."
    Does this mean I need to revert to the previous version of Firefox?

    Make Firefox 4/5 look like Firefox 3.6.x:
    *NOTE: Support for Firefox 3.6.x is scheduled to end soon, so we can help you find solutions for using Firefox 5.
    **Also Firefox 4 support has ended (replaced by Firefox 5) and Firefox 6 is scheduled for release next week

  • Since updating to Firefox 3.6.15, I can no longer print coupons from SmartSource. The error message is that Java is not detected. The check box is longer showing in the Options/Content of this version of Firefox, so I can not enable it.

  • Hello, why can't I print coupons?

    Hello, I just purchased an HP Photosmart 5510 wireless printer and my computer is running Windows XP and I'm having a problem printing coupons, when I click the certain type of coupon I want to print the page loads with a solid white screen and in the bottom left hand corner it say's error on page. What am doing wrong or should my settings need to be set at. Any help on this subject would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time and effort towards this request.

    Likely because the people writing the coupon printing software aren't very good at what they do.
    If you can provide a bit more details as to what doesn't work, that might narrow it down.

  • Where can I find Java for my iMac OS X 10.7.2? I would like to print coupons....

    Where can I find Java for my iMac OS X 10.7.2? I'd like to print coupons and the pop-up says that Apple has their own version of Java. I don't even know what it's called!

    download from here: http://mac.softpedia.com/get/System-Utilities/Java.shtml.  Only click this download button
    ignore all the other ones.

  • I want to download Java Script in order to print coupons, but can't seem to make it happen....help would be appreciated!

    I am a new Mac/Apple user, trying to download so I can print coupons from a website.  It keeps saying the plug-in is not present, go to the 'apple' on my mac & click on 'software update'.  When I do that, all I get is an update for my HP printer.  This message is coming from a Java website page.  Just not sure what I'm doning incorrectly.

    I think I understand the problem, but am not sure of the solution. What you want is Java not JavaScript which is a totally different thing.
    Lion is supposed to automatically offer to install Java for you if you try to run a Java applet on your Mac, but you don't have such a thing, yet.
    Apple has posted Java for OS X Lion Update 1 here http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421, but I don't know whether or not you need to already have Java installed or if this is a complete installation. Go ahead and give it a try as it can't do any harm and it does contain the patches necessary to avoid the problem that Thomas mentioned above. Just remember to turn Java off in your browser when you aren't using it to print your coupons. Once you have it initially installed then Software Update will take care of keeping it up-to-date in the future.

  • I can print coupons from grocery iq app to my wifi printer but i can't print an email attachment, why?

    I can print coupons from my grocery iq app to my wifi printer using my iphone, but i can't print an email attachement. The printer does not show under select printer and it is not on the list a airprint printers. Can anyone assist me?

    How do I send coupons to my email account?
    How do I print coupons from my device?First, make sure your device is connected to the same wireless network as your printer(s). Then, select a printer from the "Printers" menu in the More tab.
    In the Coupons tab, "clip" coupons from the Coupons gallery. After you've finished clipping, select "View Cart" at the bottom of the screen and then "Print Coupons." Please note that at this time, Grocery iQ can only print to HP printers. 
    You Can Only Print To HP Printers ONLY. That's why your printer can not be found wirelessly.....  you will have to send it to your email and then print from there!

  • I cannot print coupons from Bricks coupons on Firefox, but can using IE.

    Why do I get the message that my printer is the problem? I can print coupons from other websites without a problem. I can print if I use IE as my browser. If I contact coupons.com, I get instructions that I follow and still it won't work. I have installed coupon.com again when I get the message that I don't have it (when I already do). It is listed on my plugins and it is enabled.

    The link does not provide a solution to my problem. I am not able to print anything at all through firefox. Nor am i able to get any dialog at all to appear. Neither ctrl p or going to file>print [or any print options] does anything at all - nothing happens. I also don't have print.print_printer in my about:config list

  • HT4623 How can I install Java so I can print coupons. My IOS is updated to 6.1

    How can I install Java to print coupons. I have already updated my IOS to 6.1.

    As far as I know, you can't. Does your coupon place have an app? That's the best way to get things like that working on an iPad.

  • Why can't I print coupons?

    When I print the coupon from a manufacturer's website, it prints 2-3/4" wide by 2" high at the top of the sheet with the top of the coupon cut off and the right side is also missing. I have Mac OS Version 10.6.8 and use Safari Version 5.1.2. The website's "printing coupons FAQ" doesn't seem to offer any help. Does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks !!

    Try using a different browser to print from..
    Google Chrome
    or Mozilla Firefox Web Browser
    Might work better than Safari for printing coupons.
    And open System Preferences > Print & Scan then select the Print tab.
    Click Open Print Queque ...
    Delete any files you see there, restart your Mac and try printing coupons.
