Desktop printer error message

I am attempting to add a desktop icon for my Officejet 6310 printer, but receive an error message that reads, "An error occurred while creating printer proxy error -5000". How can I correct this error and create the desktop icon? Thanks for any assistance you might give.

Getting print error messages after 8.1.3 update

Adobe Acrobat 8 - Since the 8.1.3 update a couple days ago, I am now getting print error messages in the Adobe PDF printer status box when I send any document to the Adobe PDF printer. The actual printing of the document in Adobe works correctly, but these error messages occur as well - even though the document printed just fine.
I am running Windows Vista Ultimate and did not have the issue prior to the 8.1.3 update.

I have removed PDFMaker from Office, to try to simplify the troubleshooting. All attempts to print end up the same, whether from PDFMaker (before I removed it from Office), from print to Adobe PDF from within an Office app, or using Create a PDF in AP 8.1.3 from an Office file ... the last hourglass comes up in "reading Adobe PDF" and stays up. I can see the "target file" created in WinExpl but greyed out, and the hourglass (busy) never goes away in AP 8.1.3.
In contrast, if I want to create a pdf from a "save as" text file, AP 8.1.3 creates the pdf instantly. Create a pdf from scanner also works fine. This problem is definitely related to updates, since AP 8.1 worked perfectly the last time I used it from Office, which was perhaps 2 months ago.
AP 8.1 suddenly stopped working this week with a "can't create PDF" error message, I updated AP all the way to 8.1.3, and have the problem described above. I don't get an error message now, the create PDF or print to PDF simply never completes.
BTW, both my desktop and notebook run Vista Ultimate 64-bit, both have registered and activated copies of AP 8.1.3, and Office 2007, and both have the exact same problem.
I uninstalled AP 8.1.3 on the desktop, installed the trial version of AP 9.0, and experienced the exact same problem as with AP 8.1.3, the create pdf never completes, but produces no error message.
I print to XPS as a workaround since print to Adobe PDF never completes.

How can I print emails? Printing Error message that no printers are installed. (Printers are installed.)

When I click File > Print, I get a Printing Error message that no printers are installed. Printers are installed. When I click Yes to install a new printer, I receive a new error message that "Windows can't open Add Printer / The local print spooler service is not running. Please restart the spooler or restart the machine." I updated to the new version of Thunderbird 24.6.0. Using Windows 8. I restarted the machine. I confirmed printers are installed using Control Panel. I do not see any way to restart a print spooler. How can I fix this? Thanks.

The print spooler is a windows service and is required to print. I would hazard a guess you can not print with any application.
What I am saying is I think your windows instalation has a problem, not Thunderbird.

psc 2170 all in one printer, error message "remove and check cartridge" this has appeared for no obvious reason when I now switch on. I have removed and cleaned contact points on both cartridges and printed to no avail so would be most grateful for any suggestions that might help.
Thank you

Hi - Did you clean the contacts in the printer (carriage) as well? If not, try that to see if that resolves the problem - Step 5 in this document.
If that doesn't resolve the problem, the next step is to replace the cartridges (one at a time, in case only one of them is bad).
Hope that helps.

Printer hp LaserJet CP1525nw

The following message is displayed when sending any file to the above printer.
"hpmns115.dll has stopped working"

Hi jwnova142 ,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with a Paper Size Error when attempting to print.
First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
I have also located a document that deals with the 'Paper Mismatch,' or 'Paper Size Mismatch' Error Message Displays When Printing.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
Thanks for your time.

I'm getting a "printer error" message when I try to print a document with a lot of scans in it. Any suggestions?

I'm getting a "printer error" message when I try to print a document with a lot of scans in it. Any suggestions?

OK, I tried a few things, and I do not understand the results.
1) I opened the document in Preview, and it would only recognize the three initial pages which I typed using the Pages App. It did not recognize the bulk of the text which I copied from Appleworks 6. It also did not recognize any of the scans.
2) I tried opening a pdf in Preview, and it would only recognize the scans. (No Text!)
3) I tried copying everything (select all, and command-c) in Pages, and then opened a blank Pages doc, and typed Command-v. This got me all of the text, but none of the scans!
4) I was worried that my Pages app might be corrupted, but I successfully converted a similar 78-page document with copied materials from Appleworks 6 and similar scans, ant this worked perfectly.
My conclusion is that my file must be corrupted. Is there any way to check this? shabda88

Envy 5534 on MAC- print error message unable to convert post scrip file

New printer set up fine prints letter but when I want it to print a page with bar code on get error message :-
print error message unable to convert post scrip file
Can any one help please
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi @itsalex,
What type of bar code are you printing, and from what program? Just a thought, what if you print the barcode as an image, if you are not already? Try File>Print> Advanced> Print as Image> print.
If the issue persists, let's reset the printing system and repair the disk permissions; doing so may resolve the issue.
Reset Printing System
Click the Apple icon ( ), and then click System Preferences.
In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.
Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
Repair Disk Permissions
On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
Once the repair is complete, restart the computer and add the printer back.
When you add the printer, please ensure you are using the HP driver.
Select Add other Printer or Scanner
Select the printer you are adding and next to 'Use' you can select the printer drive. In the screenshot below, you will see Airprint is auto selected, you can change it to the HP driver though.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Talk to you later alligator

Photosmart 6510 Printer error message 0xc19a0003.

I have a Photosmart 6510 Printer error message 0xc19a0003. I have re-powered the printer but still get the error message Oxc19a0003. Suggestions to fix?
Thanks!

You are correct, gksurgeon, the 5510 does not have a removable printhead. If you followed the steps in the document above, then the printer will need to be replaced.
If you are still in warranty, HP may replace the printer at no cost to you. I'll link the information to get in touch with them below. The link will take you to a form to fill out. Once you fill it out and it is processed, it will give you the printers warranty information, a case number, and the phone number to call.

Acrobat Pro 8: When I print to pdf I get windows print error message

This just started happening when I installed my acrobat professional 8.0 on my new computer (with Windows XP Pro). Everything works fine, but when I print a document to .pdf, I get that windows printer pop-up message that says that it was unable to print. As a consequence, I get a bunch of allegedly unprinted documents in my printer queue that I have to keep deleting. This is more an annoyance than anything else, but can anyone tell me how to stop this from happening??
THanks.

OK, I'm still not sure I'm getting this, but I printed to file, and then opened the prn file in Acrobat Distiller. The actual pdf file was not in the folder, but I could open it with distiller.

CreatePDF desktop printer - 'error'

Hi,
I installed the CreatePDF pack (I have Windows7) and then ran into problems as the install wouldn't work. I then installed the Xerox printer and ran the CreatePDF installation again and it worked. The problem is that I cannot print on this printer. When I try to create a pdf from Word using the CreatePDF printer I get an 'error' in the spool. I followed all the leads I could find to fix this problem:
- I installed the Windows Patch
- I removed and re-installed the CreatePDF desktop printer
- I made sure my credentials were correct for the port
I removed and re-installed the Xerox and CreatePDF printer a number of times but nothing seems to help.
What else can I try to make this work?
Thanks

Hi,
Yes that the hotflix I applied. I did re-install the printer after the update but it didn’t fix the problem. I can see the printer and use it but it failed each time. I get a failure email with the following message which makes no sense since I am printing from Word (I tried other software too) :
Adobe PDF Pack could not successfully convert your file Microsoft Word - Document1 to Adobe PDF. Your uploaded file type is not a supported format.
What else can I do?
Many thanks

Printing error message ID=-6911 - What is that?

OK - another question. The Epson 900G printer we got new with our computer in 2000 is basically obsolete - noisy, can't get ink for it anymore, talks to the computer when it feels like it, and freezes up the computer often when printing. We retired it. Husband found a Lexmark Z600 in the box that is compatible with the OS 9.0.4, but after printing one page and sometimes two pages it asks me to "see finder" and I get an error message ID = -6911. Any ideas why this happens?
Thanks again.
iMac Dv Mac OS 9.0.x

JoyStitch... we have the Snow iMac and it has been well used over the years by the whole family, all of us using the various features in different ways. It is only over the past year that we have found that we are unable to use the computer as easily as in the past ...Therein may be at least part of the trouble. Before asking the iMac to take on a different environment (OS and other upgrades) it is a Good Thing to sweep the floor, and to dust and rearrange the shelves. It is a good thing just as routine practice, and may often get the kitchen organized enough for little problems to disappear of their own accord.
How full is the internal drive? 85% of total capacity is best not exceeded, and it is worthwhile to delete, or archive off to CD or an external drive, enough files or unused applications to remain below that Plimsoll line. If the drive has not been defragmented (bits of files rearranged contiguously) in a while, doing so will save the drive's heads a lot of hopping about, enable the file directory to keep track of files much better, and leave room enough for the 'scratch' files generated during use of the iMac.
The utility DiskWarrior 2.1.1 (from Alsoft) will do the first two of these. Before using DW, however, it will be good practice to run Disk First Aid and Drive Setup (from Applications::Utilities)—to make sure that the drive's logical structures are in order—and to rebuild the Desktop (hold down [command-option] keys together from startup until the relevant window seeks confirmation of the command). This will be most surely carried out if you boot from your present OS install CD to do so.
Extensions Manager is an application, and should show in System Folder::Control Panels. It is designed to be accessible also by holding down [space bar] at startup, thus allowing you to switch between different configurations, if you have them, or to make temporary changes to configuration. If EM does not presently load, or if it crashes the machine, check that its extension, EM Extension, is activated (checked) in the extensions list, and that it appears first in the list in System Folder::Extensions. Trash its preferences (Extensions Manager Prefs) in System Folder::Preferences, thereby forcing the app. to create an entirely new (and reliably non-corrupted) preferences file. This exercise should also be carried out while the iMac is booted from the install CD.
The above may not give you immediate access to your new printer, but it will provide a good foundation for installation of a newer OS 9.x version that may support your printer. Do post back, especially if any of the above is less than pellucid.
Apple IIe; 68K: 11DT + 4PB; PPC: 5DT + 3PB; G3: 6DT System 6.0.8 to OS 10.4.x

Printer Error Message using Awesome Screenshots

I have added the Extension "Awesome Screenshots" to Firefox as I need to capture web pages in my job. But every time I try to Print, either using File Print or the tool bar/menu, I can't print and get this error message: Printer Error ! There was an unexpected problem while printing. I have no problem printing Awesome Screenshots from Chrome or Safari, so it has to be a Firefox issue. Please Help!?

Try using cmnd option 4 instead. That takes screenshots and posts them to your desktop. You can just delete the extension Awesome Screenshots, or disable it while trying out cmnd opt. 4.
