Custom Print Presents plist

Everytime I open the custompresets plist file and edit to the changes I need in there once I print again it changes it right back. I am trying to modify the username setting to be firstinitiallastname rather than Firstname Lastname. Our print server requires the username to be firstinitiallastname to authenticate. Can anyone tell me why this particular file keeps changing itself back even after I have adjusted it?
I am on a mac that has been added to a Windows domain, this particular printer is part of a windows print server.

Maybe this is something specific to the driver we have installed for the printer and not normally in the file I'm not sure but there is definitely a UserName field and whenever I change it and Save the next time I print it changes it back to what was there originally.
Sorry about my first answer then.
This is specific to the Sharp printer you are using, and it sounds like the user name might be a text field in one of the PDEs. If there is a text field, you can try changing it there. Since I don't have one of these printers, I am jut guessing. Sharp may be able to offer help.

IPhoto, Colorsync and Custom Printer and display profiles

I am attempting to understand the way that iPhoto 6 handles/uses custom ICC profiles that have been set in System Prefs>Monitors>Color, and in Utilities>ColorSync Utility>Devices>Printers.
In short, my monitor and printer have both been custom profiled, (Using System Preferences>Monitors>Color, I've set my custom monitor profile. Using the ColorSync utility I have selected my custom ICC profile for my printer). My camera is using SRGB. iPhoto is set to 'Add ColorSync profile'.
Page setup is set for the proper printer and paper size.
Using the Advanced Print Setup I have selected the appropriate paper type, turned off printer color correction, and activated ColorSync color correction.
I'm not certain that iPhoto and ColorSync are actually talking to each-other.
I come from a Photoshop background, where it is possible to set the printer profile at output, using 'Print with Preview'. This setup is intended for my parents though, so Photoshop is not an option.

1. > What sort of output problems are you encountering?
1) No output problems, I'm simply trying to figure out ColorSync interacts with iPhoto as there's little or no documentation on the topic.
2. > Also what printer are you using or your parents will be using?
2. My folks are using a Canon S820
More specifically, I'm hoping to use a custom printer profile, which has produced decent color accurate results with this setup in Photoshop.
This presents 2 questions, a) how to utilize the new custom printer profile in iPhoto (use color sync utility? by declaring the profile in the 'Current Profile' section for the device) and b) does iPhoto pay attention to the Current Profile selected profiles when printing?
Basically I'm looking for info regarding the behavior of iPhoto with regards to ColorSync. The lack of documented info is the problem.
I was told today when on the phone with Apple, that iPhoto pays attention to the default profile and not the Current Profile selection, but the rep didn't sound sure, so I'm not too confident in his response.
Also, it doesn't make sense to me that ColorSync Utility would allow you to select a profile and that iPhoto would then subsequently ignore it.
My folks are importing camera images that are tagged as sRGB, iPhoto is set to apply the profile per the advanced prefs, their monitor is profiled and the profile is activated.
iPhoto has plenty of documentation regarding the tagging of images with color profiles, and the display of these profiles with regard to Apple monitors (by using CameraRGB etc) but not a heck of a lot devoted to getting good prints at home through the use of ColorSync, and custom profiles.
ColorSync was designed for just this type of thing, and when you print, it's available as a color correction option in the Color Settings section of the print dialog box, but there's nothing written regarding using it effectively and properly.
Getting color accurate prints is not a 'Pro' feature, it's something that the Mac is supposed to embrace out of the box thru the use of ColorSync...that's the whole point of ColorSync a system wide color management workflow regardless of the 'Pro-ness' of the app or so I thought.
Every rep (AppleStore, Genius Bar, Creatives, AppleCare, iPhoto Software support) try to pass this of as a pro feature, and it is not– is something that ColorSync is supposed to be doing for the whole system, not just Aperture or Photoshop

Migration - Custom Print Sizes

I am trying to migrate custom print sizes setup from one user profile to different employee, and there are quite a bit. In the future, where are these custom print settings stored and what is the best way to copy them between profiles?

Hi GroveEnt, and a warm welcome to the forums!
They are located here...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.print.custompapers.plist
I'd copy it, change the Permissions to the new user, move the copy to the new users prefs folder & remove the copy from the end of it.

Transfer custom print settings to mountain lion

Hi,
I have previously transferred .plist files from one computer to another in order to transfer or preserve custom print settings (I have lots). However, when I tried this from a Lion machine to a Mountain Lion machine, it did not work. Examining the .plist file suggests there are some differences, particularly at the end of the file. Does anyone have any insight on what I want to do before I get my hands dirty trying to hack the file myself?
Thanks!

Why not?
When you say "all you have to do copy the entire Mail folder in the user's /Library folder" ... where should I copy this to? As I understand things you are telling me to copy the mail folder from Mac Pro "A" to Mac pro "B" but I don't know to what location?
What part of copy the entire Mail folder in the user's /Library folder was not understandable? That implies to the same user's Library folder on MP B.

How to print Photo Info in the Custom Print Package

I am using LR CC, latest version on a Windows7 PC.
I am trying to print Photo Info in the Custom Print package. I have no trouble selecting Photo Info in the Single Image/Contact Sheet Layout Style, but when I switch to the Custom Print Package, the Photo Info check box in the Page panel, disappears. I can't find any reference to this in the manual as to why this would occur, or not be available.
Appreciate any help with this matter.
Best Regards
Steve

Hi,
Have a look at: Lightroom Help | Print module layouts and templates
Only on the Single Image and Contact Sheet layouts can you " ... print information about photos, such as the filename, title, caption, and keywords ..."

Is Custom print package "rotate to fit" still not implemented?

On Dec 2, Al-R started a discussion thead for LR3 beta about a problem he was having with rotating an image to fit a frame he created using the Custom Print Package. He couldn't get the image to rotate to fit. I get the sense that the "rotate to fit" check box wasn't available. I never downloaded the beta of LR3 so I don't know this for sure, but that seemed to be the case based on the dialogue in his thread.
Ian Lyons solved the mystery by pointing out that the Custom Print Package feature was not complete in the beta, and that Rotate To Fit was one of the things that hadn't been implemented. He said he expected it to be implemented in the final shipping release.
While the Rotate To Fit check box is now available in the Custom Print Packate (shipping version 3.0), it doesn't have the intended effect. When dropping a portrait image onto a landscape frame in the Custom Print Package, the frame is ignored and the image expands to fit the paper size. Checking Rotate To Fit on and off has no effect. The only work-around I have found is to rotate the image prior to dropping it on the frame. Once the orientations match, the image fills the frame properly.
Is this a case of the feature not making it into the final release, or is this a bug, or am I missing something really important here?
Thanks for your help,
Charlie

Problem with custom print dialog in Illustrator cs3 on OS X

Hello Illustrator Support Forum,
I am an IT systems administrator and I have a user that has a problem when printing from Illustrator to our Ricoh photocopier. The problem is that Illustrator uses its own custom print dialog and not the default mac os x system one. This prevents the print job from going through because it does not send the required user code along with the print job.
A work around we found was to print to Adobe Distiller creating a pdf then printing from there but this definately not ideal.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
- Vince

Hi Larry,
Thanks for the tip. This makes it a bit easier of a work-around but its still not a fix for the initial problem of printing directly through Illustrator.

How do I change the theme of a custom theme presentation in Keynote?

How do I change the theme of a custom theme presentation in Keynote?
I have a beautiful preso that my designer created. I want to use the copy in those slides with a different theme more conducive to my audience. And use only some of the slides (I know how to do that part).
Thanks!

merv,
A rather simple way, regardless of version, may be to:
1) Select everything and scale down;
2) In the Select dropdown click Object, then Text Objects, then Object>Transform>Transform Each and scale up to the original size or to a(nother) suitable one.

How to set and save Custom Print Settings in Aperture?

How to set and save Custom Print Settings in Aperture
Hi,
I am printing 12x18" images on 13x19" sheets. I find it difficult to enter the 13x19" dimensions because each value jumps to another random value when I move to enter the second dimension. For instance 13 jumps to, say, 8.5 as I type 19 into the second box. Same with the sheet dimensions.
Also, when I finally get it all correctly, the margins don't set themselves automatically - which I would I expect.
Then, even though I save the setting by clicking Save Setting at the gear below, next time I turn Aperture on, it's all gone.
Any ideas? Thanks.
Raphael

For me, it is working with these settings, Raphael.
Does your image have a 12x18" aspect ratio? You may want to crop it to the desired aspect ratio before printing.
I can only test with Aperture 3.6 on Yosemite 10.1.

Contents of a custom print program for a custom smartform

Hi...
Can you please tell me if we are writing a custom print program from scratch for a custom smartform for which there is no standard form available what are all the things that need to be coded in the print program..
My doubts on this are if we are configuring this form for output types of PO purchase order for mediums 1,2, 5 and 6 does any extra coding need to be done in the print program that is related to these mediums or is it just a configuration issue..
Apart from data retrieval part and call the function modules to send the data to smartforms what are the other things that we need to code in a custom smartform.. Anything that we need to code related to printing issues..
It would be great if someone can post a custom print program for any output type valid for mediums 1, 2, 5 and 6.
Also my last doubt is do we need to do anything in SE11 in designing a smartform and in what context do we need it...
Thanks and appreciate your help... Surely will reward for all the helpful answers..
Thanks again..
Kanthi..

Hi,
yes you need to create your own print program. You need to catch printing information and to send data to your smartforms.
To send data to your smartforms you need to use structure describe in the data dictionnary.

Setting Custom printer to default

Printing is not work for me with Read 8.1 on Linux (Ubuntu). It only works if I set printer to Custom and give it an explicit command, e.g. "Lpr -Plp4".
However whenever I restart reader it does not keep custom as the default but goes back to the value set in "LPDEST" environment variable, anyone know how to fix this?

Hello Neha,
Clicking on the properties button does not seem to have any effect, i.e. no text is displayed.
In the Printer dialog box I have on the left:
Name lp4 (from pull down menu)
status lp4 is ready
Type Unknown
when I run "strace -s 256 -f -ff -o log1 acroread"
and using the "default printer" in the pull down menu I get this line amongst others in the main log
readv(3, [{"*acroread*lprCommand:\t/usr/bin/lpr -Plp4\n", 41}, {"\0\0\0", 3}], 2) = 44
and this line in the subprocess log
execve("/usr/bin/lpr", ["lpr", "-P", "lp4", "/tmp/acroread_1128_1128/AcroPTv0YZ"], [/* 81 vars */]) = 0
but no print output.
Doing the same but choosing to use the "custom printer /usr/bin/lpr -Plp4" gave this line in the main log
readv(3, [{"*acroread*lprCommand:\t/usr/bin/lpr -Plp4\n", 41}, {"\0\0\0", 3}], 2) = 44
and this line in the suprocess log
execve("/usr/bin/lpr", ["lpr", "-Plp4", "/tmp/acroread_1128_1128/Acro2p8I98"], [/* 81 vars */]) = 0
and it prints output
If do the same again but use the "custom printer /usr/bin/lpr -P lp4" I get
readv(3, [{"*acroread*lprCommand:\t/usr/bin/lpr -Plp4\n", 41}, {"\0\0\0", 3}], 2) = 44
execve("/usr/bin/lpr", ["lpr", "-P", "lp4", "/tmp/acroread_1128_1128/AcroPTv0YZ"], [/* 81 vars */]) = 0
and again it prints output
thanks,
Dave.

Pro-100 Custom Printer Profiles

Has anyone had success in using a custom printer profile with this printer. Glossy generic Canon paper profiles work ok but are not completely on the money. I get a little too much red. I had a custom profiles created by reputable 3rd party provider for a variety of Canon papers. When I use them to print the test sheets the anomalies are dramatic. Instead of smooth transition of colors steps and anomalies are are printed throughout the test sheet. When I print the Macbeth color chart an example of how far the colors are off one could not find the red square on the printed output. Thinking the provider had a bad day I asked him to do it again. There was no change in the results. I then went out and bought an Xrite Color Munkie. I have the same results as with the 3rd party provider's color profile.
Previously I used custom profiles with the i9900 for years. Still using the same computer and software; CS5 and Vista 64 bit OS. I let Photoshop manage the colors, I select the custom profile, check Manual on the print driver screens, and select None for Color Correction on the Matching tab. Am I missing something?

I tried the Color Correction to None and when i started from scratch and redid my profiles it worked! Thank you
What I find troubling is where is this explained in the manuals or help? If this is a "professional printer" then custom profiles are going to be used.
Where is the expalnation for the other options on this screen particularly ICM. When it is chosen I only see Paper company profiles. Why do I not see my custom profiles (see link on previous comment)? When I press Help I get the following:
"ICM (ICC Profile Matching) Adjusts the colors by using an ICC profile when printing. Specify the input profile, printer profile, and rendering intent to be used." If your major software products from Adobe and Apple do the color management why is this here? Somewhere in the internet, not at Canon site, I see its purpose is for applications that do not control the color management. Which begs the question how many users who use that kind of software are going to look, find, and understand this screen and color profiles.
Sorry after losing a lot of time and money I have to vent at Canon. I do appreciate the help. Thanks again.
