Printing Orientation Setting from Properties... Button on Print Dialog

I am trying to add printing to a graphics application I have developed, and have noticed that if I use the standard code to open the Print dialog:
    PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
    printJob.setPrintable(new PagePrinter(0));
    if (printJob.printDialog()) {
        try {
            printJob.print();
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
    }the Print dialog appears, and if I click the "Properties..." button for the selected printer (I am testing with an HP 1210), the printer-specific properties dialog allows me to select portrait or landscape orientation, but if I change this setting, click OK, then click Print in the Print Dialog, the change to the orientation setting seems to be ignored,. For example, if Ithe default orientation is Portrait, but I use this setting to change the orientation to Landscape, the PageFormat information passed to my Printable still is based on Portrait orientation.
The fact that this setting appears to be ignored would be very confusing to a user of my program. Is there a solution to this problem?
I have the same problem if I use the Book class, in that I have to indicate the page format I want to use for each page when I call "append" on my Book instance, and when the Print dialog is subsequently opened, if I click "Properties..." and change the orientation, this change is ignored.
It there any recommended way to handle this?

I have the same problem too. Anyone got a solution?

Pages button in printer dialog box is deactivating while taking print ?

Hello exports,
while taking print abap reports (developed using smartforms) pages buttoon (from- to) in printer dialog box
is by default is deactivating .How to activate this button ? who will do this one (Abaper or basis guy).
pls help me in this.

Hi,
So, as you see a field "from ... to ...", I think you are talking about the "background print parameters" dialog (this is not the smart forms print dialog, which contains field "page selection").
I don't understand. "Pages from ... to ..." is always displayed, and the user can enter them manually. Do you want to enter pages programmatically?
What is your code or the steps to display this dialog? Is it fully standard or do you use GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS programmatically?

Click button on print dialog

I am using PDFCreator to print an htm file to a PDF
Unfortunately the print dialog always appears (according to PFCreator forum it is due to the browser)
Someone suggested emulating a keyboard hit on the print dialog window to get rid of it automatically.
Can anyone help me to find the Print Dialog window and then automatically press the Print button?
Thanks

I managed to solve it myself and the code is now here.
(The trick was knowing what term to use to search for "simulate key" not "simulate keyboard" got me to the right places)

Adobe Reader 9.4.6: how to skip print dialog

Hello,
in our company we implement a freestanding self-services kiosk project.
The kiosk uses a browser, which links with internal application server, which contains the required information.
There's also an option to print some documents via Adobe ActiveX PlugIn. Explored some versions of Adobe Reader, we considered that the most appropriate is version 9.4.6. We strongly needed to set Adobe Reader so that the only clickable button in upper toolbar is “Print” button, and also side navigation panel is hidden (because pdf file opens in the frame within the kiosk system page). We've succeeded with this issue.
But now we experience one more problem. When the user clicks the "Print" button, the print dialog appears. Is it possible to choose default printing settings and start printing avoiding print dialog by some standard options?
Or maybe you can provide us an event, which initiates Adobe print dialog, so that we can use it to fire the OK within java script.
Best regards
Anton.

Looks like you need a silent print, take a look at:

The steps are for Acrobat. You'll need to see if they work with Reader.

Print dialog opens automatically

Using Acrobat Pro 9.5.2
I have a two-page form. I only desire to print page two of the form upon a mouse up button event. I thought I had used this before:
this.print({bUI: true, nStart: 1, nEnd: 1});
But this causes the print dialog to open when the PDF is opened. How do I only have the dialog open when the button on page 2 is clicked?
Thank you, Mike

Hello try67,
As mentioned in the original post, it is on the mouse up event of the button:
The print dialog opens when the PDF is opened with the above.
Thank you. Mike

Print Dialog in JSP

Dear All,
This my problem. From JSP on clicking a Button , a Print Dialog Box has to appear. On Clicking Print it has to print a Dynamically Generated HTML Page. My Architecture Goes LIke this. Jsp --> Servlet --> In servlet a HTML is generated.
When Clicking the Button in JSP, The page should not refresh again. It has to straight away display the Print Dialog Button. I can do this for displaying open-dialog box. now the requirement is to display the print dialog box.
this is the snap shot code i used in servlet to open the html. But Now Requirement is to Open a Print Dialog Box Instead of Open Dialog Box.
Can any one help me out in this regard.
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException,ServletException
PrintWriter pw = response.getWriter();
response.setContentType("text/html");
response.setHeader("Content-disposition","attachment;filename=report.html");
pw.print(generateHTMLContent());
pw.close();
Post reply here / mail me @ [email protected]

If you don't mind restricting yourself to the newer browsers you can use the LINK tag to designate the servlet as an alternate html page that will be printed when a JavaScript function does a document.print.
Here is a link that may help:
http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/head/link.html
I have used this for intranet applications where I knew that all users would be using IE 5+ but I don't have an example readily available.

PDF button not enabled in Print dialog box

When I am in any application that allows printing and I select File > Print, the Print dialog box opens, but I can't select the PDF button (or the Preview button for that matter). I can see the buttons, but they are not selectable.
I have a $HOME/Library/PDF Services folder set up properly.
How can I enable the PDF button for printing?
(And for the quinella, the Preview button in the same dialog box.)

I am sorry my post got corrupted as these new Discussions format modifications can muck up when using the ~ (tilde) symbol. !!!!!
What I wanted you to do was go to the Home folder, then Library, then Preferences and locate two files,
com.apple.print.custompresets.plist
com.apple.Preview.plist
and delete those two files in particular, not your document that you are trying to preview. My mistake for omitting this information.
So please try this suggestion.

Print Properties button is disabled

Hi
I am using open source editor jEdit (version 4.3 pre15) with Java 1.6.0_11. I have two problems with printing:
1) When I select File | Print, the Print window appears but the 'Properties' button is greyed out. This is true whichever printer I select. The button is enabled in the print dialog of other applications (not necessarily Java based apps).
2) When I change the printer selection in the dialog, the application hangs for about 30s before showing the change of selection.
I do not know whether these problems are caused by an application (jEdit) bug, an incorrect Java option setting, or incorrect Printer settings on the network. But the first problem is definitely recent (i.e. not seen by me in jEdit before) and occurs on several computers.
Please can anyone suggest a reason for this behaviour?
Best regards
David

Opening print dialog box with "Selection" printing enabled

Hi all,
I have a JTable in which I wan to print only selected rows. When I open the Print dialog box using printDialog() method of PrinterJob, the dialog opens with "Selection" option disabled.
How can I enable this option ?
How can I print my selection using the standard Print Dialog ?

This I know.
Let me refrase my question:
I have a table with selected cells (Rows Cols
whatever ...) I wish to open the print dialog box
with Selection radio button enabled, such that when I
will check it and click print, the selected table
cell get printed.This I had understood.
Let me refrase my reply:
If you simply print a new table containing the selected data
then you don't need to have the Selection radio button enabled
in the print dialog box.

When printing an email, the "properties" button doesn't open the hp printer's properties

The "properties" button in the "print email" window does not take me to the Hp C7280 Printer Properties window. I keep pushing the button but it never executes the transfer. All other buttons and options in the print window work.

The issue is likely caused by one of your add-ons. Restart Firefox with Add-ons Disabled to check if that's the case.

If the problem goes away in Safe Mode, you can either try to determine which add-on is to blame, or you can Reset Firefox and get rid of them all.

Print Dialog Printer Button part 2

Hey All,
I Posted about this before and never found a fix or workaround. I was hoping since the main dialog seemd to change at 10.1.2 it would be taken care of but it seems no one but our organization sees this as an issue. I guess I'm wondering if we're all just nuts or if there's something blatent we're missing so I'm going to rephrase the question.
Acrobat 10.1.2 on Mac.
The Print Dialog contains a "Printer..." buttton by which we can access settings that are not available on the main Adobe dialog. These include printer mailboxes (on MFPs), some layout options, etc. As we often use mailboxes and secure printing, these are features which are vital to us being able to operate effectvely.
If I click the Printer button, a regular Mac OS Print dialog appears, complete with Cancel and Print buttons. If I click Print on this dialog, it doesn't actually print; I still need to click OK on the main Adobe dialog. So, it acts more like the main dialog's "sub-dialog" (my term) with additional settings, much like the Advanced button.
However, if I click the Adanced button as stated above, and all the settings look fine, I can click Cancel on that dialog. When I click OK on the main dialog, it takes into account the settings on the Advanced dialog, even though I clicked Cancel.
If I do the exact same thing using the Printer button, I get a differerent result. Even though the settings appear correct, I need to click Print to "apply" these settings to the current print job. I can then click OK and it prints as expected. However, if I click Printer and the sub-dialog's info all looks correct, I would expect either...
to be able to click Cancel and have those settings still be applied since it is acting as a sub-dialog to the main dialog (like the advanced button)
or
when I do click Print on the sub-dialog, have the main dialog automatically click OK since I'm making it clear I want to print using the settings on the Mac Print Dialog (which Acrobat treats as a subdialog to it's dialog)
with me so far?
OK, this is not just about an extra click. We have 40 users with this program and getting them all used to a very counter-intuitive way of doing things if difficult. This is causing us time and money (and possible legal/security issues). If people expect Secure printing to be in effect when the send a job to a shared MFP, and it isn't, this is a huge problem.
Again, are we missing something?
Thanks!
Jeff

Thanks Steve. Seemed like it worked at first but no go. When I go back into the Print Dialog an hit Printer, the settings ARE there but unless you click Print on that dialog, the adobe dialog ignores them. In other words, if I hit Printer and get the dialog. The settings (using presets) are saved and visible. But if I hit cancel at the dialog (which most people I know would do if they're not changing anything), it disregards the settings.
Thanks,
Jeff

In Windows 7 document printing the "Properties" button does not open the print selection list.

New computer OS is Windows 7. Old computer OS was Windows XP.
HP Officejet 4500 Wireless Printer G510n-z printed documents as I chose using the Porperties button on the old system. Under the new system the Properties button does nothing and I must print using "general printing" instead of the setting I wish to use. How can it be fixed?

When something works one day, but not the next, then something has changed. The fonts issue is an easy one, but with no new ones, then it is possible that one, or more, of the installed fonts has become corrupted.
While fonts are not the only possibility, they ARE a common problem. Titler is very sensitive to fonts, either corrupt ones, or badly written ones, that are not exactly "corrupt."
Good luck,
Hunt
