Color not working on HP printer

Hi, I have never had this problem until today. My HP photosmart C4400 printer is not printing in color, and the black ink is faded as if the ink supplies are low. I checked the cartridges and the supply levels, all almost brand new and the expiration dates are 2010. I have tried restarting and rebooting but it will not work. Can anybody help please? Thank you

Output Tray 2 does not work when we print a smartforms document immediately

Dear printer specialists,
we've the following issue:
We are printing the same smartforms document in different plants. One plant decided to get the print output into output tray 2 of the printer (lower tray), so we've copied the standard device type into a z-device type and made the SPAD set-up with a preselection for the tray 2 (lower tray). The new device type has been assigned to the output device. Now we made a test and released the print-output for an immediate printing. The output was printed as before in tray 1 (upper tray). When we restart the output from the spool (SP01), the output will be printed in tray 2. Why does this not work, when we print immediately ? Does anyone know how to solve this problem ? (We don't want to change the smartforms document.)
Thany you for every information to solve this problem.
Kind regards, Wolfgang

HI,
Check if there is a different tra setting in the smartform itself.

Airprint not working with HP printer after updating to IOS5

Hi,
I have an HP airprint printer (photosmart B210) that worked fine with my ipad2 and iphone 4 all running ios 4.
Now I have a iphone 4s as well as the iphone 4 and ipad. After upgrading to ios 5, I can no longer airprint from any of my ios devices.
I have tried turing everything off anf back on (including time capsule router, printer, ios devices).
I can see the printer from ios but the job just sits waiting to print. I have managed to print one document after trying multiple times.
Anyone having this issue?
Thanks

BattleAngelita,
Welcome to the HP Forum.
The fact that the SimplePass program is asking your for your Master Windows Password means the program survived the upgrade process to Windows 8.1 -- sort of.
You may want to start with the following:
Create a Restore Point >> Create a Restore Point – Win7 OR Create a restore point Win8
Close all your programs and Shut down the computer
Disconnect everything (little Unifier for the keyboard / external mouse can stay)
Perform the Hard Reset for your notebook
Boot the computer and log in
Check to see is SimplePass has sorted itself.
==========================================================================
You may want to try to Update your SimplePass program to the latest version in the version 6.x series.
Before you do that, read and follow the instructions to Export your Webcards to your .tsd file. Regardless of whether the website logins are working right now; you do need this backup in case you lose your HP SimplePass program (through complete removal / reinstallation or though corruption).
Next, consider updating the HP SimplePass program to the latest of the version 6 series. If you are already running the latest version, consider the other options in the guide, including the "Repair SimplePass" procedure.

It is a nice way to say “Thank You" for the help.

Repeat processing does not work properly - label printing MB90

Hi,
I created a custom label for 261 & 262 movement types. For this i created a custom page formats and needed settings.
The system seems to behave strange. when i try to print from MB90 for processing mode 1. The form output is as desired.
But when i try to repeat processing for previously processed item, it doesn't show the font size and all properly.
I tried to debug, everything is fine, triggers right form, infact i debuged the form also its the correct one. But does'nt show output properly.
Also for the new data whne i process and do repeat proecessing print it works...
Why it does not work for existing data in the system? Why it is behaving strange when it picks up same form.
Regards,
Lalit Mohan Gupta.

This was because... the output type configuration was changed to different printer.
And that printer was not configured properly...

Nebula grid GridItem.setForeground(color) not working

I am using GridTableViewer and Nebula Grid.
I am in processing of replacing old grid with new grid
version = org.eclipse.nebula.widgets.grid_1.0.0.201506030727.
I am setting individual row's foreground color.
for ( int i=0; i < items.length; i++){
items[i].setForeground(color); ;
The above code worked with old grid version ver = 1.0.0.201209220511
However it's not working with new version. What do I need to change?
Thanks
Dhiresh

If you are using a GridTableViewer why are you then calling out to the
SWT-API? It is the job of the LabelProvider to provide the foreground
color.
If you can reproduce this:
a) with a Grid only snippet (no JFace viewer)
b) with a GridTableViewer only snippet (no call to GridItem)
File a bug and we can take a look if this is a regression

Check printing:Print immediately option not working in check printing

Hi,
In check printing program i have made some changes for sending data to 2nd page,when line items crosses more than 1 page.
In such cases print immediately option,selected on the screen of FCH7 is not working.Always i have to print from spool.

Can you have some idea about this option to work correctly?
Thanks & Regards

I think U have to reset that flag .

Send to Color not working

Ok guys, I have searched everywhere and I reckon I have tried everything. Basically I have a sequence that I sent to color, go to color, colour correct everything, render and then select Send to Final Cut Pro. FCP open, says importing XML, gets to about 50% and stops, no message or error. I don't get a new sequence from color, just nothing.
Tried importing just the XML with the came result.
I have tried trashing the prefs, went back through the time line and removed every effect and transition. Still does not work. I had it work once before and everything was fine. But now.....it is so frustrating. I just want it to work as I need to get this video finished.
I am running FCP 6.2 and color 1.2, the latest anyway. Does anyone have any ideas. I have wasted days on this and cannot get it to work.
Message was edited by: Jared Bell

Without access to the sequence, its impossible to say.
There is something in it that is corrupting the round trip. It might be illegal media (which would be otherwise perfectly fine in FCP) or it might be something nested that XML can't cope with, re-directing the links to the new media. Unfortunately, the KISS principle is king.

P1102 will not work as RDP printer

P1102 will not print as redirected printer on Windows Server R2 Standard SP1 X64 terminal server.
We have downloaded latest 2008 x64 driver but will not work.
P1102 local network printers will print from network but not as RDP printers from the same terminal.
Tried to instal the P1102 on the actual Server itself but it will not instal as a USB printer on the server?

Bright Colors Not Working

Hey all,
So I start to work on something in Photoshop CS6 and suddenly certain colors don't show up right. Specifically bright bright blues and greens show as black. It seems to work in 32-bit RGB, but these colors have worked fine in standard 8-bit and I've worked with them before. Thumbnails, color picker, and saving for web seem to load the colors just fine. From what I can tell, in this random range it goes to black with saturation hits 100 in the color picker.
Attached is a screenshot. The circle is supposed to be bright blue (00d4f6) and the central rounded square is supposed to be Twitter's blue. both don't show up except for some slight coloring on the edges.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

At least one of these questions comes in per day. It's hard to imagine AMD has let it go this long.
if nothing else it's a good way to make answer points.
I see that 13.2 has been at beta 7 level for 2 weeks now... Probably means they've submitted it to Microsoft for WHQL certification, so hopefully we'll see a release soon.

Photoshop Print Screen/Paste colors not working any more

System. Windows 7 Professional 64 bit with Adobe CS4
One thing I do all the time is this:
Have something like Windows Internet Explorer open on a web page.
I want a screen shot of Windows IE. So I press Ctrl-Alt-Print Screen.
Then I open Adobe Photoshop CS4 (11.0.2) and go File/New and accept all the defaults.
Then I press Ctrl-V to paste in the screen capture.
Pretty standard stuff and it used to work fine. But recently it stopped working. Now when I paste, the colors displayed in Photoshop for the screen capture are all off. However if I save the file as a GIF or something, and open the GIF outside of photoshop, it's all good.
I've tried all sorts of things to fix this. Nothing seems to work.
Anyone know what is really going on here? This seems to have happened after performing some Windows updates.

So how do I set up a "good custom monitor profile"?
This is why people calibrate and profile their monitors. If you had a calibrator this wouldn't be a problem (and they're not that expensive).
What you need is a profile that accurately describes the behavior of your particular monitor. Chances are the Dell profile does that better than sRGB, and a custom profile from a calibrator would be even better. Then Photoshop, which is color managed, will use that profile to display the image - but Internet Explorer, which is not (or not fully) color managed, will not use the profile.
So there will be a difference between the two right there, and Photoshop will be right, and IE wrong.
The way this works is similar to any other profile conversion, like when you convert a document from, say, Adobe RGB to sRGB. Photoshop converts from the document profile to the monitor profile, on the fly, as it displays the image. This way it compensates for the peculiarities of your monitor and what you see is what the file "really" looks like.
So you can see what happens if your document profile is sRGB, and your monitor profile is sRGB: nothing happens. No profile conversion, no color management. This way Photoshop behaves exactly as Internet Explorer does. Everything you see on-screen, color managed or not color managed, will match. But it won't be right. One way to simulate this (with a good monitor profile) is to proof to Monitor RGB.
As for the screenshot: when you paste that into a new document, the RGB numbers will refer to the monitor profile, not the document profile. This is why you assign the monitor profile to make it look like the original. Then you convert that to sRGB (or Adobe RGB etc) to bring it into a standard color space.

As a newbie to the forum you obviously didn't understand how to post a simple direct question, with only the relevant code to demonstrate the problem, which is why I provided you with all the extra information to help you get better answers in the future.
Did you bother to read the link of creating an SSCCE?
Your question is about setting the background color of a button. 99% of the code you posted is not related to that issue. Keep the code simple so we don't waste time reading through unnecessary code. That way we can determine whether the problem is with your code or the environment as I already mentioned.
1) Though the information about setting the text color is helpful, the
background color of the button is the subject of the posting. Please
limit your replies to the subject of the posting.If the code posted was only related to the background color then we wouldn't have this issue now would we? When I see something strange or wrong I make a comment whether it is directly related to the question or not. It has been my experience that most people appreciate the bonus advice, so I will not change my behaviour for you. If you don't like the advice, then just ignore it.
2) Regarding, "I don't use 1.5 so I can't really help you, but neither can
anybody else...", please read Michael_Dunn's post, who remarkably
was able to provide help.My comment was related to the code you provided. Nobody could use the code to compile and execute to see if it ran on their machine. So, Michael, had to waste time creating his own simple test program to see if it worked, which it did.
My point was if you provided the same simple demo program that Michael did, then all he (or anybody else) would have had to do would be to copy, compile and test the program. You should be spending the time creating the simple test program not each of us individually. Think of how much time is wasted if everybody who wanted to help you had to create their own program? Thats why I included the link on creating an SSCCE, so the next time we don't need to waste time.
3) ..... Otherwise, it's alright not to reply to a subject. Nobody will think less of you.Of course I don't have to replay to every question (and I don't), but if you don't learn to post a question properly you will make the same mistake again and again. That was the context of my answer. It was designed to help you ask a better question the next time.
4) Your comment, "And don't forget to use the Code Formatting Tags > so the code retains its original formatting." That was a standard message I use for many newbies to the forum. I'm amazed at the number of people who think we are mind readers and can guess exactly what is causing the problem without posting any code. So I got tired of typing in a different message every time and I now just cut and paste. Yes I could have edited the last line out, but you would be amazed at how many people format the code the first time but then forget to do it when prompted for more detail. So I just keep it in all messages.
Please keep your comments related to the problem. I think I've learned a think or two over the years on how to ask and answer a question.

Level color not working

When I select text in an email and click reply, I get a new message that is supposed to set the text one level out and color it blue. It sets the level, but does not color the text. How can I fix this to work properly?

I just bought my wife a new Mac Mini, now running OS 10.5.5 (after several updates). I can't get any program to activate any red color on our Samsung Syncmaster 720n, which works fine with our iBook running 10.4. The display's own self-test still shows a bright red.
The display feature of Leopard was flaky from the beginning, showing horizontal stripes at random and then becoming washed out at random intervals for no apparent reason.
It settled down a bit after I used the "Display" feature in "System Preferences" to calibrate. But I've recalibrated several times with several different profiles and now can't get the OS to activate any red in the display. Everything (including the color palettes for Word and Safari) shows only yellows, greens and blues, making my display as depressing as our economy.
Seems like an OS problem.

TextFormat.color not working in Internet Explorer

tf = new TextFormat();
tf.bold = true;
tf.color = 0xFFFFFF;
box.textField.setStyle("textFormat", tf);
box is a ComboBox component and this works in FireFox but not in Internet Explorer if anyone can help.

O.k. I just figured something else out. When the website first loads it doesn't work, but if you click on one of my links to go to a different frame and then click the home button to come back to frame one it works just fine.
