Canon IP7250 - Color won't print - Please help

I have a Canon IP7250, two day ago, my printer showed me error C000. I resolved this error, but now my printer won't printing in colour. Black working properly. I tried many times to cleaning a toner in mainteace. When I go to "print head alignment" then shows error 2500. ? In nozzle check black colour is excellent but no other colors on paper.
Please, help me.
Thanks.

Again, the username/password, would either be your logon username/password or your "root" username/password if you have enabled it.
Another option would be to update your CUPS software. Multi-functional printers are usually "tricky" to get full-featured drivers for. It's possible that a newer version for this particular printer may exist with an update.
Still another option (and possibly a better one) would be to download and install the latest Gutenprint printer drivers. These were formally known as Gimp-Print drivers. (ref: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3)

PDF's won't print using Reader 9.4.6

Have windows Windows XP OS, Adobe Reader 9.4.6. PDF's won't print, but all other types of docs print fine. Get error message "Pages not selected", although I've selected pages. Tried different printer, same problem. Tried to upgrade to 9.5, but got error message after 96% downloaded.

XP will run Adobe Reader 11.0.5: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
I'd suggest upgrading to the newest version.

HP Officejet 6310xi won't print - keeps blinking "reset power" and all lights flashing.

I have an HP Officejet 6310xi that won't print. When you select print, the paper begins to feed then suddenly stops before any printing begins and all lights on the face of the printer begin blinking and the message "RESET POWER" blinks in the screen readout of the printer. When I turn printer off and back on, the screen indicates a used color cartridge is inserted and I hit OK, then indicates used black cartridge is inserted, then I hit OK, then it says it needs to align cartridges, I hit OK. After trying to align cartridges, it suddenly stops and goes back to all lights flashing and screen flashing "RESET POWER". I can hit cancel during cartridge alignment and printer goes to normal ready position. I can then print a test page. But as soon as I try to print anything else, even the diagnostics page, it goes back to flashing all lights and "RESET POWER". I did a semi reset (unplug, wait, plug in holding #6) and a full reset (with #9). That did nothing except wipe out the date on the screen read out of the printer. So I know the full reset executed correctly but it did not solve my problem. Please HELP! I am reposting with email me selected - I'm new at this posting to forums...

I have a new Epson wireless printer connected and the iPad recognizes it but it won't print. What is AirPrint and how do I connect it?

I have a new Epson wireless printer connected and the iPad recognizes it but it still won't print. What is AirPrint & how do I connect to it?

Patti-
Is your Epson printer on Apple's list of AirPrint capable printers? See <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356>.
If it is an AirPrint printer, then your WiFi router may not correctly handle Bonjour data required by AirPrint. Contact the router's manufacturer to see if there is a change to its setup or a firmware update, that will make it work.
One other possibility is that there could be a print job stuck in the iPad's print queue. Double click the iPad's Home button and a row of recent Apps will appear along the bottom of the screen. Scroll across and see if the Print Center is there.

What is Read Access Logging and how does it work!

Dear all,
I was following a doument :http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-50184
Which shows how you can display list modification structure in a view! But in standard if you check (i.e Listmodification for Business partner in opportunity).
Address , Phone and Email gets pick up automatically as soons as you sellect Partner ID! As per my knowledge that is achieved by :
Read Access Logging
if you check the properties of Data model field , there is an option of Read Access logging
If you check the Read Field Group Data collection , you will see below screen.
This Functionality , I have to achieve in my CUSTOM list modification structure! but How to create field group and how to achieve this functionality ihave no clue!:(
Please help!
Regards,
Dhruvin

Hello Dhruvin,
Then you need some DataOperations in the event handler which starts the ListModification.
Place them before the Start operation
They should assign the PartyID related attributes (one by one) to the resp. fields in the ListModificationStructure.
See example below:

My Envy 120 won't print from my ipad

My Envy 120 was printing from my iPad 2 until it ran out of ink. I installed a new HP cartridge and it is copying ok. However when I try and print from the iPad- it is doing nothing. Initially it printed blank sheets but now nothing is happening. It also says on my iPad that the printer is low on ink which it is not. Thank you

Wendy7
Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
Try restarting everything, including your home network Router.
If that does not work, then you might try reinstalling the printer App on the iPad. I realize that is extreme, but the app connection is whonked and the app is talking to the "old" setup. It needs to know things are OK.

Hp designjet 500 won't print in landscape in mavericks 10.9.1

Can't seem to get my hp design jet 500 to print in landscape for arch docs in 10.9.1? Any help? Have tried letting mac detect it and add to printers. Have tried downloading the driver from hp, still no luck. Ugh!

I have this same printer and it will not print in landscape if it is selected for portrait unless i go into the control panel and change it like you suggested. When I change it to landscape it tries to print everything in landscape. It does not allow me to change when I click print then properties. Very annoying to have to do that every time i want to print a different layout.

TOSHIBA Please Read - Beta Testing and Developer Community

Hello Jim,
I wanted to respond to your posting about the status of the update but the thread has been locked, so I started a new one. Anyway, I was wondering if there was a chance that we could get a beta test version of the software provided to experienced and brave individuals that can report back to the dev team with various issues and bugs to be fixed?
The public beta will not only appease the people angry at Toshiba for missing the deadline for the update, but also provide necessary feedback to the development team that can be used to create a more feature complete update. As an Android developer myself, I would take every oppurtunity to report bugs and issues and even provide code to help implement fixes for various issues if said source is availible. I believe it would be a great idea for Toshiba to create an open source development community on these forums and to provide us with bleeding edge code for us to implement and mess around with.
Such communities already exist on various sites like XDA Developers but not with vendor support, if Toshiba provided a vendor-supported developer community around the Thrive and other Android devices such as the Excite and Folio. With a vendor supported community, we would have a place where Toshiba can make better software for the devices and developers and brave regular users can participate in the process of getting updates for our various devices. I believe that moving away from such a closed development environment would not only help Toshiba develop better devices and software, but also give the company a leg up on its competitors who do not have such a community pitching in allowing for better software to be coded.
I hope that this message is read by someone at Toshiba that can make this happen, as the benefits are truly mutual, since Toshiba would be getting better software for its devices and developers get the resources and code needed to turn Toshiba into one of the best supporters of this great open-source project.
If anyone from Toshiba would like to contact me to help coordinate such an undertaking, I may be reached at [email protected]
Thank You For Your Time,
Rob Gries
Android Developer

Hi Rob,
Thanks for the thoughtful message. Your points are well made and, while I don't disagree that there are mutual benefits, Toshiba has no current plans for directly building or supporting a developer community.
On the other hand, private beta testing for the Thrive product line was first launched last summer and I expect it to be ongoing as major software updates reach reasonably usable states within the development process. However, you won't see discussion of beta testing in the message boards because beta testers are under NDA.
Thanks again for the thoughts and for your interest in developing for Thrive!
Jim

Apple please read: Extremely simple and useful development request

I will use myself as an example. In my car i have a Pioneer headunit with ipod control, and ipod controller cable. this works perfectly with my iPhone (thank you apple :)) now if im listening to music from my iphone through my head unit when somebody calls me, it automatically turns my music down, and plays my ring tone through my the headunit/car speakers (thank you again apple, extremely handy)
now here is where the request starts. when i answer the call, it channels the callers voice through the internal earpiece. and when i press speaker, it channels the call through the internal speakerphone speaker. the dev request is, that when an iphone is plugged into an ipod control head unit, and you press speaker on a call, that it channel the audio from the call through the head unit its plugged into in the same fashion that it channels the ring tone through the head unit when sombody calls.
Would this be possible in an update to come apple?
Thank you for your time and this great product

Thank you for this information. Since I have yet to see any Apple employee respond to any post, one would think it would be naive to assume that they do.
In years of posting, I have yet to have any representative contact me. Can you share your situation with us, and how it got resolved? I would be interested to know how you were able to have someone actually contact you.

Please read my prob and tell your opnion

dear friends
i work as oracle developer for three years and i got a good experience . i work now as oracle developer in a softwarehouse.and i made a good work in this company , but i discoered that my colleague who has just worked for few months and have no experiance at all and have no idea about what oracle is , takes a salary more than me one and half.
when i asked why,they told me coz she graduated from the faculty of engeneering and i'm from education.
however did not studied database at all in university.
if you are in my posiotion , what will you do
oracle developer from fucking egypt

Hi,
That is pretty annoying, when you have recent experience and have worked for three years, but for some reason, someone else gets the reward.
Sadly, it happens all the time. However, there are some things you can do:
* apply for other positions within the company
* apply for positions outside the company - that's a good way to make progress
* work on your technical skills, maybe an OCP
* work on your "soft" skills - things like communication can really help you "sell yourself"
* work on your qualifications - skip the engineering degree :-) and go for a Masters in IT or Business.
And finally, keep your motivation up, and keep your sense of perspective. The best resource for this (I don't know if you have seen it before) is this:

PLEASE READ MY STORY AND HELP ME!

So here's my story:
A few months after I got my iPhone 3G I noticed that it had developed the infamous plastic crack. I contacted the Apple store and they assured me that it would get replaced because it was a known defect. I live about an hour and a half away from an Apple store so I've been putting it off.
A few month ago My iTunes started acting weirdly. Whenever I plugged my phone into it, it would crash. I managed to update it to iTunes 8.2 but the problem kept happening. This went on until I finally had enough of it. I researched several options of how to fix it from switching users on my computer to deauthorizing and reauthorizing my iTunes account to uninstalling and reinstalling. Finally something worked- I went into the list of programs that run on startup and followed instructions to disable some of them.
So now my iTunes didn't crash when I connected it to my iPhone and I started to download 3.0. I didn't get that far because whenever I would try to back it up, it would take tens of hours. Soon my computer was overheating and I had to stop it. I tried again several times all with the same result. I was getting so frustrated with this that I just turned off my backup.
But the problems continued. I finally got to what seemed like the end, but then the 3.0 update stopped for hours and hours on the 'Verifying iPhone update' scrolling bar.
I started researching this problem, on these forums and elsewhere and found no answers. Someone had said to hit ctrl-alt-delete during it, to get out. So frustratedly I did it.. and it stopped.
Now here is where I am now- I'm left with a phone that needs to be restored, but when I restore it it still freezes on the "Verifying" stage.
I was planning on going to the Apple store at some point before my warranty ran out to get the crack problem resolved, but this weekend I am busy and an hour and a half away from the nearest store. Is there anyway I can fix this so I have a phone until I can get to Apple? I can't call Apple because I don't have a home phone.

I would suggest setting up an appointment with a Mac Genius.

Bonjour printing error in console.log and cups error_log

Hi everyone,
I have a client who has been successfully printing to an HP LaserJet 4000 over his home LAN for some time now. However, this evening he was no longer able to print, with the print queue stopping immediately when he would try.
iMac (Intel) Core Duo, Mac OS X 10.4.8, connected through a D-Link DI-524 wired/wireless router. There is a D-Link DP300U print server connected to one of the LAN ports on the router, to facilitate printing to a printer that has not been connected to the LAN recently.
After using Printer Setup Utility to reset everything, repair permissions, etc., the system still would not print. No updates have been installed since the last week of January 2007, and printing has been fine since then.
The only clue I was originally able to come across was found in console.log:
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
No log handling enabled - turning on stderr logging
snmpInk: Unknown host (SMB-Maui\0321.local.)
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Then, I looked under /var/log, under the cups disclosure triangle, at error_log:
E [14/Feb/2007:20:50:44 -0800] [Job 2] Unable to locate printer 'SMB-Maui\0321.local.' - Unknown host
E [14/Feb/2007:20:50:44 -0800] PID 282 stopped with status 1!
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
There is only the one Mac on the LAN, which is not named "SMB-Maui"-anything. I was able to get printing to function via AppleTalk once it was enabled, but the client has been printing successfully via Bonjour for some time and so there seemed no reason why this should simply "happen". No new software has been installed, as he's really quite good about leaving the system alone to do its thing.
Disk Utility repaired multiple print-related permissions errors before I began using Printer Setup Repair.
I'm looking for troubleshooting steps to take beyond this point. While the client is satisfied that he can now print via AppleTalk, I am not and would very much like to resolve the lower-level problem. Please advise?
Thanks much for your time,
MBJ

Hi Phil,
Thanks much! I think you might be on the right track, as I got some unexpected results from Bonjour Browser.
First of all, there's no Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) entry at all—in fact, several others I have present on my own, local system are not to be found on the remote iMac. What the iMac does show is the following:
local - 3
Apple Remote Desktop (net-assistant.udp.) - 1
iMac
(IP address):3283
[(IPv6 MAC address)]:3283
Remote Frame Buffer (rfb.tcp.) - 1
iMac
(IP address):5900
[(IPv6 MAC address)]:5900
Workgroup Manager (workstation.tcp.) - 1
iMac [MAC address]
[(IPv6 MAC address)]:9
(IP address):9
I have reapplied the 10.4.8 Combo Update, with no effect to the problem itself, nor to what is showing in Bonjour Browser.
One other possible clue: A visitor on the home LAN did attempt to print from Virtual PC 7 on a portable they had brought with them. They were unable to do so from Windows XP, but could print properly from Mac OS X. There is no known, causal relation to the problem at hand here - I mention it to be thorough, no more or less.
I'll standby for your further thoughts!
Thanks much for the assist,

Hi Mike,
Bonjour is a service discovery system. It doesn't
print. For
that you use ipp or lpr, etc. The reason why
Appletalk works
is that it has its own discovery system. It's older
and
apparently more reliable. Bonjour uses muticast ip
but
unless muticast requests are forwarded can't get
outside
a local subnet.
Once on your net was a machine - probably a samba
server -
named "maul". Must have been, it's in a mib
somewhere. Oh
wait - maybe it's cached in the dlink from its old
days on
the dark side!
Judging from the direction of the slash it was a
Windows
machine (I don't think that's an octal 321). CUPS
thinks
that's where the printer is. Normally cups discovers
the
printers via bonjour, and bonjour must be coming
back
with the wrong info!
But bonjour isn't that smart, something must be
tricking it.
There's a wonderful free utility called "Bonjour
Browser"
which will show you which services are being
announced.
Give it a try:

Let me know what it shows under ipp.

1: Make a Dummy report. From some post parameter form trigger, run your original report with "srw.runreport" call. The original report can generate output to a file.
2: Then withing this dummy report run, call a user exit to zip the
original reports output. You need to write this user exit and attach them
with reports.
3: Now use Report 9i distribution for this dummy report to sent this external zip file through mail.
