Cannot Print Some PDF documents

Hello All,
I am unable to print some PDF documents to my printer HP (Laserjet Pro 400 color MFP). The MAC OS is Moutain Lion. The documents look like they are printing but no print job is produced and no error message is given.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Many Thanks

Hello eorilly5,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you are unable to print from anything from your printer.
I would recommend these troublehsooting steps from the article named Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3147.
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
All the very best,
Sterling

I cannot print adobe pdf documents as it is password protected. I forgot my password. How do I fix this problem?

I cannot print adobe pdf documents. Password protected. How do I fix this problem?

You'll need to remember it or recreate the PDF from the original file.
If there were an easy way to get around that, passwords wouldn't be worth much.

Cannot print some pdf files

Hello,
Having trouble printing some pdf files that I am receiving via email, not from 1 person, from several different persons.
My operating system is Windows 7
Adobe Reader Version: 11.0.10.32
As per suggestion on forum I have changed on Edit, Documents to View documents in PDF/A mode to Never.
Also, changed Security (advance) from Enable Enhance Security to not.
Also, tried repairing, uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Reader. Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance for any help.

What exactly means "having trouble"?

I cannot print a PDF document

I cannot print a full PDF document from my computer. I open the document and select my printer and click print and I only get the first page. I tell it to do a range of pages and I sometimes get the first 2 pages. Can anyone tell me if there is a setting somewhere that I can change to get this to work. I have downloading the document and saving it to my computer and then printing, and still no luck. This is becoming VERY frustrating.
Thank you for any help you can give.

First what program are you using to open the pdf document that would be a start? Also what kinda printer do you have? And also look here as well:

Unable to view/print some PDF documents

I am unable to view/print some of the technical documents (white papers) in the 91AS documentation page. When I attempt to open them I get the netscape "extend capabilities" dialog, but my local internet support does not have a plug-in/download for the file type multipart-byterange and requested that I contact the site owner for a source for the file. I am using Netscape/Communicator 4.73 and adobe acrobat reader 5.0
Thank you

I cannot print a pdf document on my HP 7520 printer.

When I open the document and click on print, it opens the printer dialog box. Since I have three printers installed on my windows 7 computer, I have to select the correct printer. When I scroll through the printer list, the HP7520 printer does not show up, so I have no way to print the document. As a test, I used photoshop to try to print the document and the 7520 printer did show up in the photoshop printer list and I was able to select the correct 7520 printer and print the document. Anyone have any idea why this will not work with adobe reader 11?

This turns out to be a registry error which occured when I de installed the older HP printer. It works now that the registry was corrected.

Just installed Firefox 4.....now cannot print a pdf document in FF 4 using either file-print or the printer icon. However, I can print by right click on pdf page and selecting print form drop down. Was printing fine with FF 3.X

using adobe 9.x would not print. Then loaded Adobe Reader 10.x still would not print. Can print Adobe images just fine outside of FF4.x I am about ready to remove FF4 and go back to FF3.x.
Has anyone else had this problem.
Am running Win Xp with all current updates.

I had the same issue and my of my friends.
The fix is easy. You need to remove and re-add your printers.
Do this by going to the Applications folder Utilities folder and opening up Printer Setup Utility
Then click on the printers you see click remove and add them again.
If its a network printer, I would write down the IP address. Otherwise you have to figure out what it is.
Cheers

Why I cannot print a PDF with markups?

We use Acrobat Standard 7.0.8 and cannot print a PDF document form with markups. We found a "quick fix" to print it, which was to select in the print dialogue to print Document and Markups.
Question:
Because we've sent the form to our clients, they several have reported this about the form. Do you know why this would happen? Is it that they are using a different version of Adobe? Or what is the problem?
Joe

That's the way the application works. If you think the default should be to print the markups send a feature request to Adobe, but I doubt it will happen. You just need to explain to your clients how to do it. It's quite simple.

My operating system is Windows XP SP3. I have Adobe 11.0.08 installed. I cannot print a pdf file/document. Error message - AeroRd32.exe - Unable To Locate Component - "Application failed to start because lxdautil.dll not found." Any suggestions?

That DLL is part of your printer driver; reinstall or update the device driver for your printer, and the message should go away.

I cannot get my pdf documents to print for me how can I make them print

I cannot get a pdf document to print off of my computer. It wants to go to be saved to my files and then if I try to print it comes up blank. Can you help me?

Look in the print dialog for a check box that says "print to file". Deselect it.

Whenever I try to print a pdf document I get a message saying there a runtime error, I have adobe r

Whenever I try to print a PDF document, I get a message indicating there is a runtime error, and for me to contact you. My system is Adobe reader 9.3

A runtime error is a computer error that appears in the form of a message box consisting of a particular code along with its corresponding definitions. Usually, a user will notice that the computer becomes noticeably slow before a runtime error appears.
After the runtime error message has been displayed and closed, the software that shows this error would normally close or freeze. In some cases, the operating system will reboot.
A wide variety of errors cause these problems. These include:
conflicts between the TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident Program)
currently running applications
software issues
memory problems
and harmful applications such as computer viruses
With this, the procedures necessary to correct this type of error differs from one case to another. If the runtime error you are experiencing were caused by a TSR then you can simply use the "end task" function of the Task Manager.
If you consequently encounter a runtime error that is persistent, the software that displays the error message has certain issues and problems. You can resolve this problem by visiting the website of the software's developer and downloading and installing all the updates and patches needed for the smooth running of the software. However, if you have already installed all updates and patches and the runtime error message still appears, you can opt to uninstall and reinstall the program.
Another type of runtime error is usually caused by memory issues. In this case, it is a good idea to first contact the developer of the application that caused the error message. More often than not, they can provide you with a possible set of solutions. But if their given solutions cannot resolve the issues, you need to contact the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard and ask for a technician or someone from the company who can assess your hardware.
A different type of runtime error is caused by harmful programs such as viruses and other malicious processes. These harmful programs are capable of altering the computer's settings. With this, they are very much capable of generating runtime errors. In order to prevent runtime errors that are caused by such malicious programs, you need to frequently update your antivirus software. If your PC does not have a good software security program, you need to install one and scan your computer for possible threats to the stability of your system and the security of your private data.
What all that means is: There is something in the Adobe Reader that is not functioning properly once it is opened.
The best way to resolve this is to:
1. Uninstall Reader (using the Control Panel).
2. Download and install the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility (msicuu2.exe)
3. Run the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility to remove the installer for Reader 9 (and previous versions if they are still installed).
4. Download and install a new copy of Reader, and update it (if required) to 9.3.1.

Why can't I print a PDF document?

when trying to print a PDF document I get the error message " unable to print document". Sometimes also includes "No pages are selected''.
I'm using an HP laptop and OS Windows 7.
I have tried selecting all document,and printing it as image, I have checked that there are no security locks on the document. I have been through the forum several times searching for answers and still I cannot print a PDF.
Advice please on what other steps I can take.

Pat Willener,
Many thanks for the helpful suggestions. . Sean Mitchell's suggestion of
repairing Adobe reader via the help menu did the trick. I have been able to
print several PDF documents after following his suggestion.
Very many thanks for the assistance

Why can I not print a pdf document?

I have Adobe Reader installed on my iMac with Mountain Lion OSX 10.8.2, but cannot print any pdfs. Why not?

Don't know. What happens when you try? Can you open the document in Preview and print from there? Can you print from other applications?

How can I print a PDF document in OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion?

I just upgraded to OSX 10.6.3 and now 10.8 Mountain Lion. I am extremely disappointed that I can no longer print (to my printer) ANY PDF documents either through Adobe or straight from a website. Is there a way to deactivate the security feature that is blocking this? I also own the newest version of Parallels (desktop 7) and cannot print through Windows either. It's beyond annoying. Thank you!
Matt

I can print (such as e-mails, driving directions, etc), but nothing that is related to Adobe or PDF. I have a Dell 1710 printer that is connected to my airport extreme wirelessly. The printer has always worked on my I-mac since I bought it in 2007. It stopped printing PDFs ont he Mac when Adobe was upgraded about a year ago. I was then able to print through Adobe in Parallels/Windows. Since the new OSX 10.6 and 10.8 came out, nothing prints through Adobe in either place. I hope that helps.

I cannot print a PDF that was sent via dropbox.

I can easily print my documents and documents that are in my dropbox. However someone sent a PDF document in a drop box, and I can not print that. I can open it but not print.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello @ShellyRR!
Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!
I can see that your getting some issues when printing a PDF document from your Dropbox. I would suggest saving the PDF document to your desktop. From your desktop, open the PDF and try and printing it from there.
Let me know if that helped!
