CANNOT Print with Adobe Acrobat 9

I am running Microsoft Vista with Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard.
When trying to print to a printer I get an error message that I need to install/select a printer.
I can print from any other application. Just now Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard.
I installed the free version of Adobe Acrobat Reader X and can print fine. I would prefer not to keep both applications on my computer.
I use Adobe Acrobat 9 to modify PDF documents and would prefer not to have to switch to the free reader just to print the documents.
I appreciate anyone's suggestions.
I have tried rebooting my computer, updating my printer files, turning the printer on and off and then on again.
I seems that for some reason Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard does not recognize my printer - an HP Office Jet Pro 8500. All other applications work fine with it.

Are you on Acrobat 9.4.2? If so, then please refer to the below mentioned KB Article.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/891/cpsid_89178.html (Solution 1 listed on the page)
Adobe has released an update to Acrobat 9.4.2 for the  Print Issue in the form of an EXE. I have applied the fix on my system, and  it seems to have fixed the printing problem.
You can try downloading and applying the EXE and see if it helps fix your problem.

  • Problem printing with Adobe Acrobat X pro. No File Save As dialog

    We have a C++ program to print a formatted report, by selecting the configured  printers. "Adobe PDF" printer is available on install of Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    During report print  when "Adobe PDF" printer is selected, the report use to get printed in a PDF document & saves at the path provided by the User.
    Internally it uses printer APIs like  OnBeginPrinting, StartDoc, OnPrepareDC, StartPage, OnPrepareDC etc.
    Report printing was working fine with Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.1. But since I installed Adobe Acrobat X pro (with update as 10.1.3) I am unable to print PDF document using "Adobe PDF" pinter.
    StartDoc API does not pops up the "File Save As" dialog at all.
    Any help in this regard, would be very useful.
    Note: My code is working fine, if I use freeware like CutePrinter.
    Thanks,
    Amit Agrawal

    Interesting. My approach would
    1. Try on a different system if available. If still bad...
    2. Try to create a simple test application with CreateDC and StartDoc, and really nothing else not absolutely needed.
    Test that.  If it is good, look for other problems in your application (e.g. memory overwrite).
    If your little example is still bad, post it here and other people can try and compare your results.

  • Printing with Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard

    Does anyone have issues printing in Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard with the HP CM1415fnw? I thought I have the latest driver downloaded.

    Check the settings in the Print Screen / Page Handling section - you may need to check or un-check the auto rotate and center button?

  • Cannot Print with Adobe XI

    Up until yesterday, I had no problems printing with adobe to pdf from any application on my system at work.
    Now, using crystal reports, I can no longer print to PDF to a folder.  First, I was shown a message that the file could not print and was deleted.  I reinstalled and then began getting throught the point of defining a location as to where the pdf was to be saved.  When I print it there, the PDF never displays and does not end up in the specified folder (or anywhere for that matter)
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled, and even tried changing printer ports to no avail.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    thanks

  • Unable to print with Adobe Acrobat Pro - latest version 10.1.10

    Hi,
    I have installed Adobe Acrobat Pro on my mac book air version 10.9.2. but am unable to print. When I print a PDF, it shows up in the printer icon as complete but when I go to the printer, nothing is there? Can someone help?

    Hi Frank,
    This type of error usually occurs when two or more than two programs are accessing the same file at a point of time.
    Does this issue occur with that specific pdf or with other pdfs too?
    How about if you make a copy of that pdf and then try deleting pages from that copied pdf? Do let me know if that works.
    If possible...Can you mail me that pdf file at [email protected] so that i can check this issue at my end?
    Regards,
    Rahul

  • Cannot print to Adobe Acrobat X from any other program

    I recently installed Acrobat X on my Windows XP3 system.  Previously, the Adobe Printer installed by the Acrobat 8 was accessible from any other program.  I simply chose the Adobe PDF printer and the documents "printed" to Acrobat.  With the Acrobat X install, this no longer works.
    I've tried repairing the Acrobat X - no luck
    I've tried deleting the Adobe PDF printer and then allowing Acrobat to re-install the printer during the repair - no luck
    I've checked the Adobe PDF printer properties, and do not have "Enable advanced printing features" checked.
    I am using the print spooler.
    The Adobe PDF printer is using the Adobe PDF Converter driver.
    I've read through a number of discussions/posts, and have not found a solution.  I am working around the problem by printing to pdfFactory program and then saving as a .pdf, then managing the files in Acrobat X.
    If anyone is aware of a solution/location, please respond to this post.   

    Are you saying there is no Adobe PDF printer, or it does not work? If it simply that it does not seem to work, then try to print to file with the printer. Then open the file in Distiller. If you get a resultant PDF, then the problem is most likely that you have somehow deactivated AcroTray.exe in the running applications. The program is in the Acrobat folder and needs to be started in that case. It should also be listed in your boot sequence for startup.

  • Crash after print with adobe acrobat

    It is impossible to print out from Adobe Acrobat Pro X with my main-/administrator account. Everytime I print, Acrobat restarts.
    The special thing is, when i am loged with the guest account, Acrobat Pro X prints promptly.
    Any idea what this bug could be or any solution for this problem?
    kind regards
    Ralf

    your input seems quite good but unfortunately i still have this problem - this seems not be the solution for my problem - . By the way, I also have a problem with the direct mail from Acrobat to Outlook (Office 2011)...

  • I cannot print from Adobe on My Mac

    I have tried all I know to do, but I cannot print from Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 from my Mac running Mac OSX - 10.5.7.  I have two different printers - a Cannon MF4150 & an HP Color Laserjet 2550.  When I click print, the preview is not available and it just goes into queue and never prints.  I am also running VMware Fusion -- I cannot get it to print from the Windows XP virutal machine either.  I am using just the standard Adobe Reader 9 in the Windows side.  I don't know what could possibly be wrong.  The Windows XP side is printing through a sharing mode with the mac side.  Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong?

    I've tried that multiple times as well as resetting the printers themselves.  I've deleted and re-added the drivers as well.  Any other suggestions?

    i was able  to print with my acrobat before, but I can no longer do it.  the error message says "adobe creation cannot continue because acrobat is not activated"  How do I activate it?

    I have the exact same issue. I can print one document and then I get the error mentionned above ("adobe creation cannot continue because acrobat is not activated"). Then I need to reboot in order to be able to print a new document.
    I have suite and went to Photoshop as suggested, but this program is already activated. I tried to launch Acrobat Pro but it won't.
    I'm using the Design and Web Premium CS6 Suite on Windows Vista.
    Thank you so much for your help.

    created by Sara.Forsberg in Acrobat Reader - View the full discussionHi verlaa73828618, It sounds, then, that you can't even open Adobe Reader. Is that correct? What version of Reader are you currently using (and are you on Mac OS or Windows)? Have you tried reinstalling Reader? Best,Sara If the reply above answers your question, please take a moment to mark this answer as correct by visiting: https://forums.adobe.com/message/7446005#7446005 and clicking ‘Correct’ below the answer Replies to this message go to everyone subscribed to this thread, not directly to the person who posted the message.

  • Barcode printed with Adobe Reader XI cannot be recognized by barcode reader

    Dear Support,
    We are generating barcode and convert it into pdf using Crystal Report for .NET Framework 2.0.
    The pdf is opened with Adobe reader XI / FoxitReader 4.3.1. And it is printed with Avery Dennison AP 5.4 300DPI.
    When the pdf is printed with Adobe reader XI, the barcode cannot be read with barcode reader, but when it is printed with FoxitReader 4.3.1, barcode can be read with barcode reader.
    I've compared the two printed barcodes and found Adobe printed the lines thicker and the characters wider. Thus, two lines sticked together and become 1 line. As result, it cannot be recognized by barcode reader.
    Could you explain why did this occur and how can I fix it in Adobe? Are there any settings I can change to solve it?
    Thank you very much.
    Operating System: Windows Xp or Windows 7
    Application: Adobe reader XI or FoxitReader 4.3.1

    Thanks Pak,
    I've attached the pdf on:
    https://files.acrobat.com/preview/47dde05c-4835-4bdc-881f-c406f8056f01
    As the problem I've described in the post only occurs on specific printer, I've found a way to reproduce the barcode problem in most of the printer.
    From the pdf I've provided, you may print it with Adobe and Foxit, using a printing scale of 190%.
    For the Adoble one, you may observe some white lines in between the labels, and the Foxit, there are no white lines.
    I do believe that two problems are related. Do you have any idea on that?

    Very strange!  What is your installed Reader version?
    Try disabling Protected Mode in Adobe Reader [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
