Changing Default Print Quality for Photosmart Printers in Stand Alone mode

Hello Everyone. I am using a group of Photosmart Printers in Stand Alone mode for events where I shoot and print on site. Although I have quite a few printers with me (6 total at a time), I prefer to have the printers print in "Normal" Print Quality Mode, instead of "Best". Images come out twice as fast, and because I have a disciplined shooting technique, I get "GREAT" results from the "Normal" setting. I and/or my assistant have to go to my "Preferences" to change my Print Quality everytime we prepare to print another batch of photos. Sometimes we have groups that will want 5 copies, and it simply takes FOREVER in Best mode, and really, although with a 5x Loupe I can tell the difference, My customers can't with their naked eye. Sometimes we forget to change the setting due to the pressure of the pace sometimes. OOPS!
I am using the following Photosmart Printers: A516, A512v and the 335.
As I stated, I don't use these with a computer, I drive them straight from CF Cards. I do have all the original software, if I need to use the computer to make some changes. Just tell me how. Manual says nothing about getting the setting to default to normal.
Thank you so very much in advance.
BLAYZE!

Hello:
One way of assuring high quality would be to export the photo to the desktop (at highest quality) and then print from there.
In my own case, I find that when I occasionally print a photo from iPhoto, the quality is quite good.

How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg

How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg, even ones that are not yet installed / connected to the computer?
I'm trying to install firefox with MDT and apply certain print options, but the printers themselves are connected at a later stage so the print.printer_myprinterhere cannot be used.

Best answer I could find: [https://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/16/customizing-firefox-autoconfig-files/#comment-132668]
If you can figure out how to add the printer name, this can be used to lock the margins.

EPSON Stylus Color 1160 changing default print quality under 10.4

Greetings.
I have the above printer and since Epson no longer produces a driver that will function under 10.4 I am using the Gimp driver. Which works fine.
The printer is connected to our server and so functions as a ‘shared printer’ in the network. The server runs 10.4.8.
However I would like to tweak the default settings for all users.
One of the things we use this printer for is to make drafts for checking text or layouts. The default setting is for an excellent print quality. I would like to change this to a lower resolution (saves ink > saves money > saves planet > reduces carbon footprint, ;-)))
Anybody knows how to do this?
Thanks

Greg good morning,
It did solve it partly. Here is what I have now. If printing directly from the computer the printer is connected from now is no problem, the settings have changed.
However as this is my server (the Epson is connected to it via USB) printing from the other machines have not changed the standard dialog box.
When I try access the Epson setup via http://127.0.0.1:631/printers on the individual computers I get:
Forbidden. You don't have permission to access the resource on this server. <</div>
Any suggestions as to how to solve this so I have there also the standard box changed? Reason is of course that on the individual computers the dialog is generated locally and their settings are following the standard rule than send to the printer, bypassing the setting of the printer. So question is, how to get in to this dialogue?

Can I set up custom default printer profiles for different printers in mountain lion?

I have 2 printers connected to my Mac. An officejet and an Eltron label printer. I constantly need to manually change the default label printer size to print to the label printer or officejet. Is there a way to set it where all print jobs going to the label printer is 4x6? Sometimes, I forget and waste some labels to the eltron or send a job to my office jet and it prints a 4x6 image of the document on letter paper. Obviously its a bit of a hassle. If anyone has a trick for this or even third party software, please advise.

Andrew,
If i am clear with your requirement then You can achieve this by setting the value manually in PR.

How can I change the print quality on a HP 6700 to draft (lowest quality) on a Mac OS X 10.9.3?

Hi,
I've tried many places to try to find where I can change the print quality (HP 6700). I don't want it to use so much ink, so want to put it at the lowest quality. I tried using the settings icon and the arrows on the front of the printer, and other options listed here. Nothing has worked.
Thanks,
Skinfrared

Hi skinfrared, welcome to the forums!
Try checking out the guide below for changing the print settings in a Mac. Choose 10.8 and almost near the bottom it will show you how to save the settings for future print jobs.

Mass-Update Default Print Properties for Spool Authorization (S_SPO_ACT)

Dear Experts
To protect HR spool requests it is possible to use the print-authorization in combination with the authorization object S_SPO_ACT.
In case a HR user prints a form the the print-popup will default the user-parameter SAU for print-authorization. When printed like this the value of the SAU-parameter will be added to the spool request.
In case the HR user prints a ABAP-list the value of the user-parameter SAU is not defaulted in the print popup. Instead seperatly saved defaults print properties (see print popup -> properties) are taken.
How can I mass-change these default print properties? How can I set these default print properties for other users?
Thanks in advance

Please note that with SAP BASIS release later than 620, parameter id 'SAU' is either no longer used or only used in a limit fashion. The default spool authorization is now stored in cluster 'UV' instead of at 'USR05' / parid 'SAU' .
If your users already have 'SAU' parameter populated with proper spool authorization, SAP has an ABAP util 'RSTRANSPARAMSAU' to store this in the cluster. Once you run this util, default spool authorization will
be populated properly each time spool files are created.

Setting default export quality for PDFs in Pages 5.0

Hi,
Anyone know if it is possible to set a default export quality for PDFs in Pages 5.0. Even if it remembered the last used setting that would be helpful.
Thanks,
Nick

OK, I have managed to get higher quality images from the PDF renderer. Here is what I have found:
1) The PDF renderer in Reporting Services 2005 will size all images that it is given at 96 DPI no matter what DPI the image is when you pass it to the renderer. That means that a 300 DPI image or even a 600 DPI image will be sized in the PDF as if it is only 96 DPI. That means your high DPI image will render much larger than you expect.
So you might expect a 300 DPI image that is 6.5 inches wide to render properly at 1950 pixels. Yet, the PDF renderer will size it as it were 96 DPI which would make the image 20.3 inches long!
2) There is good news though. Despite sizing the images as if they were 96 DPI, the PDF renderer appears to render higher DPI images at a higher quality than 96 DPI. So despite the sizing being wrong, the image actually is rendering at a higher quality.
This means that you should size the image to the proper number of inches based on 96 DPI calculations. Then you can use Bitmap.SetResolution to set your images to at least 300 DPI. That should give you a higher quality image that is the proper number of pixels to fit properly in your report.
I am able to do all of this sizing dynamically because I am using objects as my data sources, but I am sure there are VB functions you could use in the report itself to accomplish the same task.
It is late, and I've been at this project all day long, so forgive me if I have explained anything poorly or gotten any concepts long. Yet, at this late hour, I believe this is what the renderer is doing.
I hope this helps someone else in the future, or at least points them in the right direction.

AP log got Connection lost to WLCCP server, changing to Stand-Alone Mod

Our customer has about 200 Autonomous APs(Version=c1200-k9w7-tar.123-2.JA2),WLSM(Maintenance img(1.1(2)),Application img=12.2(15)XR2), Sup720 IOS=s72033-jk9o3sv-mz.122-18.SXD3.bin.The static WDS point to WLSM,somme of AP will fail with log"Connection lost to WLCCP server, changing to Stand-Alone Mode".
Any ideas about solutions on this?

You will receive this error message if the AP loses its connectivity with the WDS. This can happen if the radios are flapping, as well as if there are problems with authentication / registration with WDS. If the AP is powered using POE, please ensure that you configure the proper poe support on them. Also check if authentication is happening correctly. Debugs on the AP and the logs on the AAA server will help troubleshoot this issue.

Poor print quality for black ink for Photosmart 6520e

Having a problem with black printing. Using all HP cartridges, but when I run a test page, I get white, horizontal bars across the black test bars. Some of them are 1/4 inch wide. Replaced the cartridge and did the automatic printhead cleaning, but no improvement. I know the printhead is not removeable, what is the next step?

Hi @Mikenstlouis,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are running into some print quality issues with the black ink on your HP Photosmart 6520.
I would like you to continue here: Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages, I understand you may have done some of these steps already but I need you to complete all steps in order to resolve the missing black issue you are experiencing.
Please note: There are three printhead cleaning stages. Complete all three stages if necessary. If the printhead is badly clogged, it might require another cleaning cycle. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last (third) cleaning stage to start the first stage of the cleaning process over again.
If you are still unable to print in black ink, I suspect the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. I highly recommend you call our technical support at 800-474-6836, I trust they will be able to assist you regardless of the warranty status.

How to change the default print template for broadcast PDF Export

Hi,
I have currently designed a print template for printing purposes and use this as the template for the print button(Export to PDF),if i were to click on this button the output pdf is the desired PDF. But if i were to broadcast the template with output format as PDF it picks the layout of the current template, how do i set broadcast to pick up the print template also???
Further how to insert a page break in a PDF print template.

Hi Nagesh,
These setting are for
1.Adhoc Template for Queries
2. Adhoc Template for reports designed through report designer
3. Template for query precalculation
4. Template for displaying broadcasting wizard.
When we use broadcasting from query designer to email PDF's the system uses 0QUERY_TEMPLATE_BROADCAST_PDF.
From WAD the system uses the current template layout as PDF Layout.
P.S: OSS note 1054460 -<b>Depending on the BI object type and possibly other criteria, different Web templates are used in BI broadcasting to generate PDF (and PS or PCL) formats:</b>
<i>For Web templates: the Web template itself is used</i>

Can you set a default print quality?

Good Morning Everyone,
I've been putting up with this annoyance since I install PSE 8. I've looked for a solution but can't find one. Hope you can help.
Here's the problem.
Every time I print a document PSE 8 defaults to a print quality of 1200 dpi, which take forever to print. So I have been clicking on
Change setting, then if I click on the drop down box for print quality the only choice is 1200, so I click on advanced setting and choose
normal (which is 600) click ok and print. But I have to do this every time I print. I'm using a HP C3100 all in one printer and I've check the printer
properities and they are set to a default of normal (600 dpi). Any ideas?
Thanks
Nancy

Nancy,
We have had several posts recently relating to printers and PSEv.8. Check on the HP site for updated drivers for your model. If there is an updated driver, install it. Let us know how you make out.

How to Setup Default Page Size for Multiple Printers

I've got two printers, a laser printer for printing "normal" 8 1/2 x 11 pages and a Zebra label printer for printing 4x6 shipping labels. I have my laser printer set as the default printer with a default paper size of US letter. Whenever I go to print shipping labels on my Zebra printer, I switch the printer in the Print dialog box and it always defaults to a paper size of "Full Bleed 8 1/2 x 11". Is there any way to change this setting so that it defaults to "4x6"?
Another interesting thing is that if I temporarily set the Zebra printer up to be the default printer, none of the paper sizes that are "appropriate" for this printer appear in the default paper size popup menu. It looks like the choices are only those that would make sense for my laser printer. But when I go to print with my label printer, I can choose all sorts of "appropriate" sizes from the dialog box, including the "4x6" size that I use.
Any ideas?

Stop the queue (or take the printer offline manually), queue a print job, and check the settings on the submitted job using the CUPS interface; see if you can get the print job "captured" in the queue, and then see if the job is asking for the page size. Based on what you're describing, I'd guess that whatever application or tool you're printing from is specifically requesting the page size, and not defaulting it.

Default printer settings for HP Deskjet 882c

All I want to do is set this printer to print in black and white by default. If I wanted color, I would use my other printer ... I want faster than a snails pace so I brought this one back out.
Being a PC for my entire life, this should be an easy thing to set the default print settings on the printer. I don't see them!
What I am printing is emails off hotmail ... tons of them ... going back months ... so please don't ask me to add an additional step here ...
Pulling my hair out here ... help would be lovely!

You are on the right track for sure. The claim code is in fact printed in blue, so if your color inks are low or empty it will not show up.
I noticed there are 2 version of the 6500A, I will go under the assumption that you do not have the 'Plus' version since you didn't specify this, shouldn't be a big discrepancy either way (let me know if I am wrong).
Viewing your ink levels is covered here, your Cyan ink cartridge could be empty : http://goo.gl/RjIhbp
You can still find the claim code on the front panel of your printer without color ink. Go back to web services on your printers display and it will show your "*@hpeprint.com" email address. The prefix before the "@" is in fact your code.
Also note that your code has most likely expired, which happens after 24 hours of being generated. Not a big deal. If your code has expired you will have to reset the web services in your printer, this will generate a new printer code. You can do this easily from the front panel of your printer.
Follow this link and expand the section “What if I lose my printer code before registering?” under “Frequently asked questions (FAQs)”
http://goo.gl/0WUyIe
(*a note on step 4, some firmware updates may have simplified this entire step to be simply “remove web services”)
After enabling the web services again the printer code area will still be blank if you are out of cyan ink.
Regardless the new code will display on the front panel (under web services).
I hope this gets you going with ePrint. Let me know if you are having issues printing in color beyond this, or if you are still experiencing difficulties with ePrint.
