Cannot print using RDP, with a custom page size ,on HP Laserjet M1217nfw MFP

Dear Team,
i have on the server win 2008 R2 standard , i have installed the drivers of HP Laserjet M1217nfw MFP printer ,
on the client i have win pro 7 SP1.
i need to print through RDP the documents generated in my application which i access remotely using RDP.
i know the printer drivers are installed on client and server both.
the issue is of creation of custom pages to print the document in proper format so that it prints in the client PC with proper formatting.
we are currently successfully printing on HP Laserjet P3015 printer but at a different location. and i have 5 branches still to be able to print this document from the application,
I need you advise and assistance as to how do i go about achieving my objective with this printer,
Thanking you in advance
regards

Hello JBC666,
I understand that you are having an issue with printing wireless from your M1217nfw. I can understand how frustrating this can be. I would like to confirm a couple of things with you to get better understanding of your setup.
1) How far away from the printer is the router?
2) Has there been an recent changes that could have caused the issue?
As well printing a network test report, is an excellent option to find out if there is any issues with the connection at all. I have included the following steps to print the test.
1) Press the wrench button
2) Press the right arrow until you see Network Config
3) Press Ok
4) Press the right arrow until you see Network Test
5) Press Ok
1) Does anything fail on this test?
2) What is the signal quality?
3) Are you able to view the printers embedded web server?
   Steps to accessing the embedded web server
   1) Open up your internet browser
   2) Type the IP address (from the test report) into the address bar
   3) Press Enter
Thank you.
I worked on behalf of HP

Cannot create PDF w/ custom page size in FM 9

I just upgraded to the new Technical Communication Suite and cannot create a PDF from FrameMaker with a custom page size anymore. I need to create a PDF with a page size of 8.125" by 10.875", and have tried both Save As PDF and Print to the PDF driver. I followed all of the instructions on how to do so via the PDF printer driver's "Printing Preferences", Adobe PDF page size, etc. When that didn't work, I also tried Save As PDF with a custom page size ... still won't print to the custom size no matter how many places I specify it.
My only way to get my custom page size at this point is to create the PDF and then go in and modify Document > Crop Pages > Change Page Size to Custom, and specify my size. This is clearly less than desirable.
I am using FM version 9.0p 196. Any help/advice/suggestions welcome!

Cindy,
You should get the FM updates. There have been 3 patches released since the 9.0p196 version. Install them in order.
Before creating PDFs, make certain that your default printer is set to the AdobePDF printer instance. The SetPrint utility from Sundorne helps ensure that this is always the case for FM, see http://www.sundorne.com/FrameMaker/Freeware/setPrint.htm
In the Save As PDF dialogue, set the "Page Size" for the output on the Settings tab, as shown here:
Set your PDF joboptions for the appropriate press requirements.
Set your registration if required.
Make sure the "Convert CMYK Colors to RGB" is set (the PDF CMYK generation is still buggy).
Hit the "Set" button and you should get the correctly sized output.
When you were creating the ouptut via the printer route, if you had set the "Generate Acrobat Data" option, then FM sets the document so that it is always cropped to the FM page size, rather than the printer specified output sheet size, in the final PDF. Omit setting this option and it should work via this route as well.

Creating Custom Page Size less than one inch

I currently have Acrobat 6 on Windows XP, and it appears that I cannot set a custom page size less than one inch (Using Printer Preferences). Is there another method I can use to create a PDF from Publisher that has a page size less than one inch? If not, would updating to Acrobat 9 allow me to print to a custom page size of less than one inch?

Thanks Peggy,
I tried deleting the preference file and restarting Pages but I still have the same problem with the custom page size. When I start Pages I am presented with a bunch of templates so I choose Blank then I go through my procedure to select the custom page size that I created and always end up back at an A4 document.
I have used the demo version of Stone Create to do what I needed to do with the small page size (ie. create a small ad) but it is a pain that I paid for Pages and now will need to buy something like Stone Create to do what I need. Although, that said, having used Stone Create for this little ad I must say that for the price it seems like a pretty decent program that will do a whole lot of the desktop publishing type of functions without the rather steep prices of the Adobe products. I kind of wish I had bought this program instead of Pages now.
Cheers,

Custom page size results in blank page

I have a networked HP Color Laserjet 2605dn printer and have some 7.25"x5.25" envelopes that I need to print addresses on. So, I created a FileMaker database and went to print them with a custom page size I created and only get blank pages. If I change the page size to US Letter, it's OK, but obviously, the text appears in the wrong place. I used a different application Intaglio to see if it's a FileMaker issue or Mac OS issue and the problem occurs with Intaglio, also.
Just to be sure, I have re-installed the most recent HP driver (4.3.5.153) and there's still no difference. I do have the proper driver selected. The Generic Postscript driver does not appear to allow custom page sizes. I'm led to believe the HP driver may simply not support custom page sizes. Looks like I might have to use a Windows system to print these???? What a shame.

You may find that this a printer limitation rather than a driver issue. Is the envelope size you are using a supported size by the printer? If not, the envelope could be printing blank because the X-Y coordinates for the start of the text are based on a different size to the one you are loading into the printer. This would cause the text to print to a section that the envelope doesn't cover.
Some printers make you select a free-size setting for non-supported sizes and then rely on the driver to write the text onto the correct spot. Do you have such an option.

Creating a custom page size in Access 2014

In an previous version of Access 2003 I created a report with a custom page size of 5"x4". Now I am using Access 2013 and I no longer can run that report because of the custom page size. How do I add the custom page size to the
new version of Access?

Hi,
Your required could be done via VBA coding. We cannot custom page size directly in Access 2013.
Please see the sample code with following links:

Creating a custom page size not working

Hi,
I have Pages 3.0.2 and I wanted to create an PDF for an ad that our playgroup wants to submit in a local paper. The ad needs to be 10cm x 6.2cm so I went to the Inspector dialog and the Document tab and then selected Page Setup. In the new dialog I selected Manage Custom Sizes under the Paper Size drop down and then created a new size by clicking on the + icon. This allowed me to specify a Page size of 10cm width and 6.2cm height. I selected user defined printer margins and entered 0.25 for all margins. I set a name for the page size as 100by62Ad.
All good so far, but now when I select this new custom size in the Page Size drop down I can see the page size and underneath the drop down it says 10 by 6.2cm and click on OK the Document Inspector flashes then shows the A4 sizes again.
Nothing I do seems to allow me to select the new custom size. I can select the other page sizes such as DL fine and see the new page size in the window, but my new custom size refuses to display. I have tried closing down Pages and coming back in but get the same thing. I then tried downloading another program, in this case one called "Stone Create", and selected the custom page size in that program and it worked fine. I got a small 10cm x 6.2cm document to work with.
This seems to be a bit of a bug. Has anyone else managed to work with custom page sizes?
Thanks for any assistance.
Graham

HELP!! I am having BIG PROBLEMS getting the Custom Page Sizes to work!!

I am having a MAJOR challenge working with the Custom Page Size feature in Pages '09. My mom is working on a primer music book for publication, where the page size (for the printer) MUST BE 9" X 12"!! For some reason even though I have set the custom page size to 9" x 12", The document does not appear to have the proper proportions, (i.e. the ration of the width to height IS NOT EQUAL TO THAT OF A 9" X 12" DOCUMENT!!)
HELP!! PLEASE!!
Also, for some reason my Vertical Ruler has COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED!! My Horizontal Ruler (on top) is still there but there is no sign of the vertical one which is CRITICAL for aligning the of the content for publication!!
I took an annotated screenshot of what the document that is +*SUPPOSEDLY 9" x 12".*+ But there is +*NO WAY THAT IT IS ACTUALLY 9"12!!*+
I have also taken some screenshots of a few other Inspector Panels and other things that might help SOMEBODY to figure out what the problem is!

Hi kmamusic
Welcome to the forum.
To show your vertical ruler:
+Menu > Pages > Preferences > Rulers > check Enable vertical ruler in word processing documents+
You are right the page does look slightly too high.
The one thing you did not give us was a screen snap of the *Custom Page* you set up in *Page Setup…*
This is what would dictate the actual page size.

HP Color Laserjet 1600 cannot print in color with Pages 09

Hi, everybody!
I got a huge problem for me that the HP Color Laserjet 1600 cannot print in color with Pages 09 after I upgrade to 10.6.1. It worked very well in 10.5.8. Since there is no official driver from HP website for 1600, so I used foomatic/foo2hp as the driver.
It is very strange that I can print in color with Safari and Preview in 10.6.1, but cannot with Pages 09. When I print with Pages 09, it always shows that the print job was completed but my printer was nothing happened.
I just re-install the 10.6 OS "complete new", install the printer driver with the instructions on this forum.
It would be high appreciated if somebody can help me on it!

Why doesn't MAC just give us the driver for the HP Color Laserjet 1600? It's one of the most popular home based business laserjets. It's the one I use and a lot of other people in business use it so I'm at a loss as to why they don't.
I bought my MAC Pro tower for video editing and I can't print from it and have had to reinstall the OS on it once already because Safari wouldn't open a window. So much for the MAc advertising statement of "We're so much easier to use."
After spending close to $10,000 on MAC equipment, Tower, Laptop, Monitor, etc. if they think I'm going to spend more for a new printer just because I can't get a driver to print they're thinking wrong. I going to re-think my new cell phone purchase too. Has anyone had software issuses with their phones before I go out and buy one?

Page size printing problems with custom page size I created

I have created a custom page size (very small) for printing an advertise I had to print, and now after that operation all the pages I ask to print to any printer are automatically printed in that setup, and sometimes even if I change to A4 manually, the page changes but the borders of the page still remain the old one (result i can not print). How can I cancel the custom page size I created, so that my printers restart to print automatically in A4?
thank you very much

Printing to PDF (custom page size) from AutoCAD Won't Work Anymore

The DWG to PDF driver provided with AutoCAD 2013 will not save my artwork to a high enough resolution for me to use. See attached screen shots of the PDF's printed by AutoCAD's DWG to PDF driver.
The only PDF print driver that I have found that will is the Adobe PDF driver provided with my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro software. See attached screen shot of the PDF printed by the Adobe PDF driver. HOWEVER, I can only print to a standard paper size and I MUST print to a custom page size. When I try printing to a custom page size it will no longer let me save the PDF. It simply skips the save window. It used to work fine up until this past week, but when I came into work on Monday morning it stopped working. I cannot for the life of me figure out why it won't work now!
DWG to PDF set to Maximum Quality (400 DPI)
DWG to PDF set to Custom 1200DPI
Adobe PDF set to Custom 4000DPI

Try opening the DWG file in AutoCAD 2013 and changing its file format to an older version of Autocad (i.e, 2010/2011/2012).

Z3200 won't print to custom page size

Hello,
I've created a banner that is 23"w x 82"h (in CorelDraw Suite 4). The page setup of the Corel file is 23" w x 82"h. I've been trying to print it on the z3200 designjet, but have had no luck. I created several custom page sizes (23" x 82", 24" x 85", 24" x 82") using both the "Printer Properties" dialogue within CorelDraw as well as adding a "Form" in the "Print Server Properties", none of them work. I've set the correct paper (24" wide HP Bright White Bond, feeding from the roller) on the actual printer itself, and in the Printer Properties.
I've played around with all of the different settings that I can and sometimes see the following error message:
[1/1]Paper size selected (width:23.00 inches, height: 82.00 inches) is larger than loaded paper (width: 24 inches). Please verify your printer setup.
When the page prints, it is resizing the content to be 8.5" wide.
I don't know what I'm missing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance,
Karen )

Does any Tech/Eng here could help us? Otherwise there's no reason for me to use you guys machine anymore...

Set custom page size for printing

I want to set a custom page size for printing some PDF three and four-page musical scores to roll paper on an Epson 1290 using Adobe Reader 9.3.4 on Ubuntu 10.04. The printer properties in the print dialog has a media size option, and one of the choices is "custom", but having chosen "custom", the dialog does not allow me to add the actual page size to the lpr printer command. I can see that when I choose "custom", the lpr command is
lpr -P Stylus-Photo-1290 -o PageSize=Custom etc
but what I need for a three page output, for example, is
lpr -P Stylus-Photo-1290 -o PageSize=Custom.297x630mm etc
and I can't see how to add the actual custom paper size. If I Ok the media size choice dialog with it just set to PageSize=Custom, I can see from the output preview in the print dialog that the actual page size that has been chosen is letter. The online Adobe doc for Reader 9 printing (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Reader/9.0/content.html#heading2.3) says "For documents that are larger than the standard page size, go to File > Page Setup. Create a custom page size before you print your document". The problem with that is that there is no "Page Setup" option on the File menu in the Unix version of Adobe Reader, only a "Print" option, which is where I already am.
If I open the PDFs in Evince, it allows me to add the custom page sizes I want, but as Evince doesn't have the option to print multiple pages per sheet I can't use it either...

Yes, it used to work, and the resize zoom bar used to work too (now its grayed out). I don't know if this is a "who's to blame for it" thing, but its not getting fixed and its pretty bad that no one seems to care enough even to respond. I found my own solution by opening it in Gimp. Just right click and select open with other ...Gimp and it will import into it. In the Gimp Print dialog, you have a scaling percentage in the "Page Setup" tab, and size settings in the "Image settings" plus loads of other stuff including multiple copies.

Can no longer create custom page size for printing to PDF?

When printing from FrameMaker to PDF in Windows, I used to be able to create a custom page size by clicking on the Add button that appeared to the right of the Adobe PDF Page Size window, in the Adobe PDF Document Properties dialog box. With Frame 9, that button no longer appears; in fact, the whole dialog box is cut off just inside the edge of the entry windows. Do I need to set something? Thanks for any help you can offer. - Cindy Shaler

Cindy,
I am not sure to what dialog boxes you are referring.
In the PDF Setup dialog box (in FrameMaker's Print dialog or Save as PDF dialog), the Settings tab displays two fields to change the width and height of the paper. I tried entering odd values, and the resulting PDF had the entered size. I see no Add button nor is the dialog box cut off.
Maybe I am not looking at the correct boxes.

Custom Page Size Printing Error Since Updating to Mavericks

Can anyone help me please...
iMac 10.9.4, with Adobe CS4 suite and Adobe CC Suite installed.
I have recently updated to Mavericks and since the update my custom page sizes no longer print at 100%, custom sizes all get scaled down (i presume to fit sheet) and leave me unable to print jobs out at correct size.
The custom page sizes work for builtin apps such as Preview, but my CS4 suite no longer work correctly. I have also tried using Acrobat CC and that gives me the same issues too.
I have googled the problem but have not found a solution and it seems i am not alone either.
Please help as this is rendering my ability output as useless.
All the best

This problem is from all Adobe CC & CS4 products i use: indesign, illustrator, photoshop, and acrobat.
My main staple work process is using pdf exported from indesign then printed using acrobat.

Cannot print PDF file with version 11.0.10 Adobe Reader.

Cannot print PDF file with version 11.0.10 Adobe Reader. Get error messages "This document could not be printed" and "There are no pages selected to print". I am using a Mac OS Ver 10.0.2. I see that this question has been asked by others recently, but no answers. Anyone have any suggestions?

Assuming you are running 10.10.2 and not the ancient 10.0.2, can you tell us what printer and printer driver you are using? How is the printer connected to the computer (network, usb)? See if you can delete the Reader preference files? Years ago I resetting the printer subsystem would sometimes cure a problem like this.
