DYMO printing in portrait instead landscape

Our DYMO Twin Turbo Labelwriter is printing in portrait instead of landscape when I print from Address Book, so the text is across the short length of the label and very small.
I've installed the latest driver (7.7.1) and reset the printing system to no avail. Any ideas?

I have spoken to DYMOs software engineers and they reproduced the problem. This has been an issue in address book since about 10.2 or 10.3. I submitted a report to apple but have not received word if it will be fixed.
The best solution I have found is to use SOHO address label software from macupdate.com which is much better than DYMOs crummy software IMHO. I think you are the only other person that has noticed this bug. It seems to only occur in printing address labels directly from Address Book.

  • Document improperly printing in Portrait instead of Landscape via Remote Desktop

    When attempting to print a document in Landscape orientation, it always comes out in Portrait.
    Using Remote Desktop Services via Windows Server 2008 R2 with all Windows Updates.
    Local client - Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit with all Windows Updates.
    This does not happen using another printer (Dell) - so I'm leaning towards it being an HP issue.
    Page orientation is set to Landscape in Word (for example)
    When going to print -- it's showing that it's set to landscape.

    So the issue with the 8000 printer is periodic print jobs do not come out as you are wanting them. Is that right? This is interesting, just from the point of view that generally speaking issues like this are like a light switch, they are either there or they are not - they usually don't come and go. That being said, we are going to see what we  can do to resolve this. First I am going to recommend that we perform a clean installation of the printer after uninstalling it from the machine. By the way, what is the operating system you are working with - Is it Windows 2000 Network? 
    First if you use a USB cord, make sure to remove it. Do not plug it back in until the software directs you to. Then go through the Devices and Printers, Programs and Features and Device Manager folders and insure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. Then as directed, restart the computer. 
    In the START menu type "%temp%" and press ENTER. Here I want you to press Ctrl+A and hit DELETE. Some of the files will not allow you to delete them, skip those files and delete the majority that allows it. 
    Then follow this link to download the full feature software and drivers for the printer: 
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3762364
    Install that and let me know the result! 
    Have a great day!

  • Barcode printing in Portrait or Landscape

    Hi Experts,
      The problem is that I have done the settings in se73 for the userdefined barcode. When we are printing this barcode it is vertical both in Portrait and Landscape. It should be horizontal in Landscape. How can I do this change, it should work for both but when it is portrait it should adjust as vertical and it should become horizontal when landscape.
    Thanks.
    Oscar

    Hi,
    Just check for its 'Rotation' you have set in SE73 it should be Normal or 000

  • Firefox will not print in portrait mode; landscape stuck even in preview mode

    Firefox will not allow printing of a web page in portrait mode. Even print preview selecting portrait shows only landscape printing preview. Tried uninstalling printer, installing Firefox 4, no luck. Printing in portrait mode works fine using IE8 but I'd rather stay with Firefox.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,

    Pages version?
    Does the printer driver match the MacOS system?

  • How can I change a print page orientation from portrait to landscape

    How can I change the page orientation when printing from portrait to landscape?

    By setting the print size  --  ie rather than 6x4 use 4x6 - and to avoid unwanted cropping you need to crop the photo to the target ratio before printing ( you can undo the crop after printing if you do not want it to be permanent)

  • Printing reports in portrait instead of landscape

    Hi,
    We've got some reports written in Crystal Reports XI - implemented on a specific 'Crystal Reports server' and users run these reports using InfoView.
    99% of the time...the reports print fine, but occasionally a report that has been designed to print in landscape mode starts printing in portrait and the only way to get it to go back to printing in landscape is to reboot the server. (We've tried doing things like checking the printer drivers haven't changed; print to a file rather than a printer; print to a different printer; get the user to log off and back on; get another user to try and print the report etc. - but this doesn't work).
    We've also checked the server for issues to do with memory and disk space...they seem fine (the machine has three hard drives with 1 GB, 20 GB and 80 GB of space free).
    Help! Has anyone else experienced this problem? What is causing the issue? I don't really want to have to reboot the server each time this problem occurs...
    Regards,
    Mark

    Hello Mark,
    I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
    This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
    It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.

  • Printing only first page landscape not portrait

    Acrobat Standard for Windows v.8
    When using Acrobat to print any PDF document, the first page is printed in landscape instead of portrait, the rest of the pages print as expected. This is reproduceable behavior on a single machine. Printing the PDF using other applications like InDesign or eCopy Desktop print as expected. Only Acrobat is exhibiting this behavior.
    Acrobat has been reapired, uninstalled and reinstalled, printer drivers reinstalled with no success. The work around I have figured out (as a temporary solution so the user can print documents properly) is to select to print the PDF in landscape orientation in the print driver when printing from Acrobat, which prints the whole document in portrait orientation, essentially what was supposed to happen in the first place. This orientation change only seems to affect the first page and doesn't have any affect on duplex orientation.
    Does anyone have a solution to this one? Or some direction? Thanks in advance.

    Try one of these:
    1/ In Adobe, deselect "Choose Paper based on PDF size" - you can leave the "Auto Rotate and Center" on.
    2/ In Adobe, go into Advanced and choose "Print as Image".
    3/ If this is a Canon H1 Fiery RIP, go into Printer Properties, Printing Preferences, Layout, Rotate 180degrees and choose "Large Paper Only."

  • Landscape Report - Need to resize for printing it portrait

    I have a financial report that I run often and it was originally designed as a landscape report. I want to reformat this report so that it will work for printing it in portrait. I don't really want to take a bunch of time to redesign this, I just want to resize the whole thing so that it will work to print portrait instead of landscape. I was originally using my printer driver to do this because it had a resize functionality that seemed to work pretty well for this. Now, however, after that printer died, I can't do that anymore with the new printer's driver. Any ideas how this could be EASILY resized for portrait? I have a bunch of fields in this report and it's going to be complicated and time consuming to mess with it much, so I'm wondering if there's some shortcut to do this quickly and easily. I'm using Crystal Reports 9.

    Export to PDF format, it should resize your rpeort for you.

  • Error message when changing from portrait to landscape when printing

    I receive an error message when changing from portrait to landscape when trying to print.  How do I resolve this issue?

    Hi hillclimbing,
    Can you please let me know the exact error message you see as that would be helpful.
    Does this occur with all the pdf files.
    What OS and Acrobat version are you using?

  • Printing Document w/ both portrait and landscape pages

    After some searching, I was able to create PDF forms with LiveCycle that had a mix of portrait and landscape content.
    However, when I go to print the document from Acrobat Professional 8.0, it prints the landscape pages in portrait mode, thus cutting off the right side of the page.
    When printing on computers with only Acrobat Reader, the pages all print properly. Is there a way to fix this?

    If you just want a page the same size as the rest of the report but with the text printed sideways, you can do that in Pages.
    If you want a fold out page (2 sheets wide) then you will have to make a second document for the wider sheet and, after skipping a page in the original, manually insert it after printing.
    Alternatively the material can be scaled down to fit.
    Hopefully in Pages '10 we will get spreads.
    …as well as real color management, crop marks, spot color, slugs, direct selection tool, ability to select objects under other objects, a usable drawing tool, object library, user created shapes, convert text to outline…

  • How to print photos in portrait and landscape from mobile phone

    Hi there,
    Have just set up my new HP Envy 5532 printer and am having a few issues with printing photo's from my mobile phone.
    Could someone please let me know how to choose between portrait and landscape.  Also, when I print photo's from my laptop, the settings let me choose which paper size to choose - does anyone know what a 6' x 4' print setting is? 
    Thanks so much and I hope I have made some sense with my questions!

    Hi @Monkey-Nicks, 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums.  I  gather that you would like to learn how to print pictures on your mobile device to your Envy 5532 printer.
    You didn’t mention whether you are using an Android mobile phone or an iPhone so I’ve included the document for each operating system.  If you would like more print options than what you currently have available, I would suggest downloading and installing the HP ePrint app.  It gives you the type of options that you are looking for.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8000 Printing Blank Pages Instead Of Data And Also Reorienting Itself

    Hi all
    We have a wireless HP Officejet Pro 8000 in our office (but via cable, not wireless) to a network.  The printer is occasionally printing blank pages instead of say a spreadsheet selected to print. 
    The other issue is that if you say are printing two copies of the same spreadsheet, one prints okay (say landscape) and the second copy, selected at the time of printing, prints it portrait but only part of the left hand side of it and the rest is blank.  Coming out of and going back inthe file usually recitifes this.  But it does it again any time it feels like it.
    We did have an upgrade, where our IT guy took away our desktop boxes and replaced with smaller base units and everything is run from a main server and alsoan upgrade from Windows 2000 to Network.  Problems started after this and the IT guy did update the printer driver.
    Please would anyone be able to assist?  Any help for this frustrating problem gratefully accepted!
    Thanks,

  • Dymo print orientation

    I was hoping someone could help with this. I just installed a Dymo 400 Turbo. I've got the latest drivers, and it is working fine.
    I swapped out the shipping labels that came with it for the smaller address labels. Then I did a test print from address book. With the shipping labels the orientation was correct. But for some reason when I choose address labels it then prints them portrait, where as the label requires landscape print.
    Thanks,
