Cant Open Print Dialog for Powerpoint in Firefox

Whenever i try to print off Firefox, there will be a small box saying "preparing to print" (with a small spinning series of dots) that lasts for 3 seconds or less. Then the box will disappear and there will be a TINY box saying "javascript" at the very bottom left corner of the screen. Nothing happens afterwards, just me and my screen sharing an awkward moment together.....
I DO NOT have Microsoft Powerpoint but i have installed a Powerpoint Viewer on my laptop

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

How to open print dialog from web dynpro abap application

Hi experts,
I have a web dynpro application with several views and onone of the view there is a button that should open print dialog with printers list and all other options (standard print dialog we see in windows). I did reserach on SDN and came to now that this is a limitation of web dynpro abap. I did find some code also but unfortunately our current version of ABAP(7.0) do not support the code I found. I am not able to find any proper solution for this. Could someone please let me know how I can open a print dialog by clicking on a button in web dynpro abap? Any sample code or any information would be greatky appreciated.
Thanks.

Firefox 27.0 fails to open print dialog

I have firefox set to automatically update. All of a sudden, perhaps after the most recent update, I cannot print anything. If I try to print, I just get an windows error sound and nothing more. I do not get the print dialog.
I have tried to reset the printer configuration, and I have tried reinstalling Firefox all together. Neither sovled the problem.
Please advice.
Thank you.

I was scratching my head for a day trying to figure out why suddenly I cannot print or initiate any dialog in Firefox. Avast was the culprit. I uninstalled it and now everything is working again. Installed Bitdefender for now :)

Slow opening print dialog screen in Windows 8.1

I have Adobe Reader 11.0.5 and am using Windows 8.1. When I click on the print icon, it takes 20 to 30 seconds for the print dialog screen to open. This is maddening. Does anyone know why and how to speed it up?

Hello eycon
Try out the article below to troubleshoot your issue with iTunes freezing on you. Also check to make sure that when you removed iTunes, did you uninstall in the order of the second article as it does make a difference when troubleshooting the issue.

Error when opening print dialog

I am on a MAC using photoshop CS5 version 12.0.6. I specified an unsupported custom size for a printer and it now causes an error when I attempt to open the print dialog by choosing "Print" from the file menu. If I select "Print One Copy", the document attempts to print but generates error. Since I can't get to the print dialog, I can't change the print setting. Is there a file or way to change the print setting by some other means?

There's no such thing. The latest version of Photoshop for the Mac is 12.0.2.
What routine trouble-shooting steps have you taken so far?

Open Print Dialog using JavaScript

Hi folks, I'm trying to open dynamically the print dialog window for printing the PDF (Ctrl + P) in WebDynpro ABAP using JavaScript.
The JavaScript seems to be executed only for Interactive Forms, however I don't need to use interactive but only Print-Based Forms.
This line of code works if I assign it to an event like click for a button, I tried to call it in the doc:ready event but it does not work
xfa.host.print(1, "0", "0", 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
Please I need some help and I hope it's possible!
Alex

Thanks, we are getting close!
This line of code works, but it does not prompt me with the print dialog box (because of the first parameter is 0)
xfa.host.print(0,"0","0", 0, 1, 0, 0, 1);
I got this message box "This document is trying to print. Do you want to allow this?" Yes/No....
Ok, that works but I would like to have the standard print dialog window instead, where you could select your printers.
This line of code prompt me to save the XDP, this is not what I want
xfa.host.exportData("",1);
In which event should I place the script??
Also, script only seems to be executed for interactive forms, I don't want to generate interactive forms, they are more heavy to render, this is only for print based forms!
thanks

CR 2008 SP2 - Slow to open Print Dialog or Page Setup Dialog (And SP3+)

When I am designing my report in CR 2008 SP2 and select either Page Setup or Print from the File menu, Crystal Reports stops responding for about 5 minutes and then the dialog box will open. I created a blank report and did not add anything to it and this continues to happen. The program operates at normal speed otherwise. It is quick to startup and load reports. Any ideas on why this is so slow?
Update: I have also tried checking the box in page setup that says No Printer but the problem persists.
Update 2: I have updated from SP2 -> SP3 -> FP 3.1 -> FP 3.2 -> FP 3.3, and after each upgrade I tried both Print and Page Setup and it continued to exhibit the same slowness as in SP2.
Thanks,
Paul

Hi Ashwini,
I just completed updating my OS and I am still experiencing the behavior. I have applied every update available through Windows Update. I just reformatted my computer two days ago so this is a pretty fresh install.
This problem existed before my reformat as well however. A few months ago, Crystal did not have this slow issue when opening either Print or Page Setup dialogs. About a month ago these two dialog boxes just became very slow. I hoped reformatting would get rid of this issue but it persists. I also experience this slowness on a different computer that I am using.
One idea I just tried is to shutdown the Print Spooler service in Windows. The print dialog won't open at all but it does quickly tell me Warning: No Printer is installed on this system. The Page Setup dialog on the other hand opens immediately, however, the Printer Options group box is totally greyed out. This "fix" is of course no good to me since I cannot print, but perhaps it narrows down the issue to something regarding printing and/or printers?

Open Printer dialog window

Can I open the Windows Printer dialog window in Forms during runtime and then send the printer name that the user selected to Oracle Reports?

Here is the code for showing the WINDOWS PRINTER DIALOG BOX. REMEMBER YOU HAVE TO ATTACH D2KWUTIL.PLL file for this to work.
declare
v_printer_name varchar2(1000) := null;
v_port varchar2(1000);
v_exception boolean;
begin
win_api_dialog.select_printer(v_printer_name,v_port,v_exception);
wmessage('Printer is '| |v_printer_name);
:b_selection.local_printer := v_printer_name;
exception
when others
then
:b_selection.local_printer := null;
end;

ID CS5 (7.0.4) painfully slow opening print dialog box

I've been having this issue for quite some time and finally getting around to finding out what's going on.
I counted 38 seconds between the time I hit Control-P, and the time the print dialog box opens up. ID looks like it has hung up until it finally opens the print dialog box.
Edit: meant to say that my documents are all very simple text-based pages with a simple letterhead graphic file embedded, 5-6 pages usually.
Any suggestions on how to fix this, such a lot of wasted time waiting.
Thanks!
System: Windows 7, 8 GB Ram
ID CS5 7.0.4

That would be MY first step. It takes no real time and will eliminate it as a possibility. Next thing I would do is trash prefs: see Replace Your Preferences
If neither of those works, I'm not sure what I would do next... Perhaps have a look at what else is running that could be slowing things down.

Printing a report and using the print dialog for it

i already have the print dialog vi from NI. I am using the normal report generation toolkit for printing reports. But I want to give the user an option to choose the number of pages and landscape/portrait options. But how do I integrate the 2 so that before printing the user can select these features.

There is an activeX control that will set these settings. It is called IAS Helper COM Component 1.0 Type Library. It operates the Windows printer configuration program. Since another company wrote the code, I do not have the resources to help you use the control, but the attached example program should get you started.

How to open File open/save dialog for a file saved in the Appl. Server?

Hi Experts,
My requirement is that, there will be a link in my BSP page "Link to BI Report" and when the user will click this link, the File open/save Dialog box will appear for a BI Report file that will be in a fixed path in the Application Server. I have checked with <a href="/usr/sap/tmp/bi_report.csv"> tag but it is not working. The BI report file will be currently in the CSV format. Any ideas about how to achieve this? Thanks in advance.

Drag & drop the image into the blank document.

Printer Dialog for Canon S9000 Printer

I dug out my large format Canon S9000 printer and am having trouble color correcting the photographic prints. Part of the trouble seems to be that in OS 10.6 I don't seem to be able to get the printer dialog box from the printer utility. When you go into the printer driver all you get is Canon S9000 in the box and I don't seem to be able to get into change any of the driver settings. Can anyone help? Thanks.

spinosaurus wrote:
I did download the latest driver for the S9000 available, although it is updated I believe only through OS X v10.5 and not 10.6.
The driver update is for 10.6. If you have v10.36.2.0 installed then at least there should be some level of comparison between my setup and yours.
I talked to Canon support and they told me that Apple writes the printer drivers for the OS systems and not them.
This is not true. Canon creates the drivers and provides them to Apple so that it they are available via Software Update.
Since you are using the same driver from Canon, maybe you could answer some of the following questions: What color space do you use for importing your photograph, sRGB, AdobeRGB, ProRGB, etc.? What color space do you use for viewing your photograph? Do use any ICC print profiles to print?
For the photo that I used to test, it was taken on my Canon EOS7D and imported using Image Capture. The Get Info for the photo shows the colour space as RGB and the colour profile as sRGB IEC61966-2.1.
For printing I selected the Canon profile to match the Canon Photo Plus Glossy, which is shown as GL3/SG3 in ColorSync. When PS was managing the colour this was selected via the PS print dialog > printer profile. When I selected the printer to manage, I used the Quality & Media tab to select the paper which in turn sets the profile, as seen in the Color Options menu.
