Expert SAMBA printing help needed

I have read every thread regarding SAMBA printing but am still having difficulties with Java applications.
I set up 2 kinds of printer queues.
1. No Password: Used the standard Add Printer dialog for Windows printing.
2. With Password: Used the Advanced Add Printer dialog and created a queue of this form: smb://username:password@server:port/printer.
Both queues work with regular applications. Queue 2 works in Java applications in an admin account. Neither queue works in Java applications from a standard account, I get a Printing Error dialog. Everything was working fine in Tiger. Leopard was installed via Archive + Install, network preferences were not copied.
Seems like some kind of permissions change relative to Tiger but I have no idea where to look.

What printer? What driver? What OS and Reader version?
Can you try to print as image?
The option is present under Advanced options in the print dialog.
Sometimes if you remove the printer driver and re-install it, you can
then print the pdf.

PDF Printing Help Needed

I have a Windows pc only for 1 thing - printing pdfs. My problem is that Windows printer drivers allow me to have auto select paper size/tray depending on if the pdf page is standard or legal. I have not yet found anyway to do this through the mac.
I have a Brother HD-5370 laser printer and need some assistance with the paper auto select. If any one has any suggestions or an actual fix, I am all eras.
Thank You,
Dan

Dan231,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
We are willing to help however we need you to complete your Public Profile (look to your right) so we can tell what computer you have, the version of OS X, how much RAM etc. Also letting us know where you are located could help in future posts.
Most printing issues are handled in the Printing forums. Each version of OS X has it's own printing forum. For example if you use Snow Leopard (10.6) then that forum is located at:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1344
However let me try and take a stab at your problem. I am guessing you are using Preview to print the PDFs so let's start there. When you print (Command-P) the printing box will appear, look under the Orientation and right below that it will probably default to Preview. Click that radio and choose paper handling to see if your printer offers more choices. You can also run Software Update to see if you have the most up-to-date drivers and retry.
Hope this starts to give you some direction.

Printer Help Needed

I have a MBPro 17 running osx10.4.8. I have a home network which I utilize multiple printers. I am having trouble with the driver for my kyocera mita FS-9100DN. I have gone to the mfr's website and downloaded the osx104.sit file which is explained to be the driver for the printer for OSX. When I try to open the file to execute the installer for the driver, I get a message stating that there is no program designated to open the file. I am new to mac's, and I really need some help here. Anyone that can give me a hand would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hey, Greg, I had a similar situation downloading an update for Quicken 2007 for Mac; the update was a ".sit" file and hence requires Stuffit Expander. Is Stuffit Expander a good program for the new Intel Macs? I have a MacBook Pro 17" with the 2.16 Ghz Intel chip. For some reason I feel a little hesitant to download and install the Stuffit app. What's the current experience with this app?
Thanks & God Bless!

Printer help needed from the Apple community

Hello Apple Community,
Can you help me to print from a new Mac to an old Canon printer?
I'm here in Vietnam (first time in Asia) as a teacher. I have the latest model MBP (running Mac OS X 10.8.4). There's an old Canon that I'm trying to print to. I've Google'd the model number but nothing comes up for Mac. There are sites in the Google search that say they have the software. I'm worried they might be malware sites.
On the back of the printer it says L11121E. But when I connect it (via USB) and open Print & Scan it detects it as a Canon LBP2900.
I looked here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4670 and here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4670.
But neither of those links list the Canon L11121E or LBP2900.
When I Google'd "L11121E mac driver" this link came up:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL899
Do you think that would work?
I checked for updates from the App Store (and System Preferences Print & Scan) with the USB cable of the printer plugged in. Nothing came back.
I'm a teacher trying to print material for my students. Any help at all would be appreciated.
Confused,
.Sean

Thank you, Linc!
Following the instructions from AlexeyU (thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15765876#15765876) worked!
AlexeyU's instructions:
"Try this:
1) Download & Install official drivers for Lion v3.36 – http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0100359005.html
2) Download & Install this package –http://www.uzhva.com/temp/Canon_LBP3000_to_LBP2900_patcher.zip
3) Reboot
You probably will need to manually match your printer with LBP 2900 driver from drivers list."

Printing help needed quickly

I am trying to print out football tickets I purchased thru stubhub. In my e-mail I recieved a link to download the tickets. I can see the page needed to print showing my ticket.When I hit the print icon a box opens and says This document could not be printed.I hit ok.

Can no longer see USB Printer - help needed

Hi
I have a macbook air connected via usb to an hp deskjet 840c.
Always worked fine - today I tried to print a document and the HP print utilities said it could not connect to the usb printer.
I tried several times to change the settings and reinstalled the drivers, but nothing happened.
I reset the printing system, which deleted the printer queue. Now the printer doesn't even show up if I try to add it again on printers & faxes. The printer doesn't show up on system profiler as well.
The macbook usb port works fine with any other devices.
Any hint?
Thanks

Hi alex:
I am not being critical of the Macfixit site, but I would NEVER download a system software update from other than the Apple site.
It is very difficult (translate impossible) to tell from here what happened. Usually those sorts of problems are attributable to changes, but I suspect you have already looked at that.
At this point, I think I would do an archive and install to try to get back to where you were. An A&I will install a fresh OS X while retaining your files, programs, and settings. I always suggest backing up before any software changes. The fresh A&I will install the drivers (including HP) that were originally distributed. You would, of course, need to run software update to bring everything up to current level.
Barry
P.S. If the problem persists after the update, I think I would suspect some sort of printer hardware problem.

IPhoto '08 Experts apply within (HELP NEEDED!)

OK, after installing Leopard which I had difficulty with BSOD and other issues, my iPhoto is corrupt. When I try to create a new book I can not select the book type, all options are greyed out. When trying to modify a page layout in an existing book all options are greyed out. When trying to change a theme in an existing book all options are greyed out. Spoke with Apple for over three hours last night, completely uninstalled iPhoto and reinstalled with no success. Did an Archive & Install of Leopard again to no success, have done several permission and disk fixes with no success. At this point I'm looking for any and all options so that I don't have to wipe the disk clean and begin again.
If I were to make an appointment with a Mac Genius (something I've never done) can I take my iMac in and have them trouble shoot the issue with me at the store?
Thanks in advance, I'll mail a six pack to anyone that can help.
Jason

Before you reinstall iPhoto you'll need to delete the following folders/files:
HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto/Themes
iPhoto application
All files with iPhoto in the file name that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

OfficeJet K60 printing help needed

Hi everyone,
I recently made the switch from Windows to Mac. I'm happy except that I can't get my HP OfficeJet K60 to print. I have it connected via USB and the printer setup utility easily recognized it. When I attempt to print, the printer utility will show that the document is "sending" for several minutes to the printer and then just stops as though sending and printing was completed, but nothing prints out and it doesn't appear as though the printer recognizes any input.
Any suggestions? I have OS X 10.4.6 which already has Footmatic/hpijs as part of the setup? I have looked up old responses to the question, but they all refer to downloading hpijs, but it is already on my new powerbook and it still won't print. I love my k60 and don't want to have to toss it because of this problem.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Yovi

I have the exact same computer, operating system, and printer, and I am stuck as well. Have you had any luck yet? It doesn't look like there are any OSX drivers for this printer and OSX doesn't have the K60 as an option for HP printers... this is a dubie

Airport Extreme and HP Psc printer help needed

Hey there, I just got a new Airport Extreme 802.11n, the internet works fine but I am having problems getting it to work with my HP printer. I have a HP PSC 2410 printer(multifunction).
The airport sees that it is connected and it comes up fine. But when I try and print something it just doesent work and usually will get stuck on "Opening Printer Connection".
Other times it may sound like the printer is going to print and it gets ready to but then stops. Also sometimes it can manage to print a few letters in Word but then I try to print a whole webpage and it wont work. But most the time it just wont work.
Things I have tried:
1.Call Apple-they said to come here
2.Called HP-they want me to give them $$ to get any support
3.Reinstalled drivers
4.Re-added printer
5.Power-cycled
6.Fiddled around with settings in the airport utility and elsewhere
The worst case I am expecting is that it just isn't compatible which in that case is no biggie because I can just hook it back up directly to my iMac and it works fine, just would be nice to be able to print wirelessly from my Macbook pro.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Hello Drumwiz. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Unfortunately, not all USB printers are compatible with AirPort base stations.
Take a look at one of these iFelix Unofficial AirPort Printer Compatibility links, depending on which AirPort base station you have:
o 802.11g AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) or AirPort Express Base Station (AX)
o 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn)
If your printer isn't listed, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work, but simply that it has not been verified. iFelix also provides the following workaround for printers not on the list that would certainly be worth a try.
Also, you may find the following Apple article helpful.

Wireless Printer Help needed with a brand new AE router.

Hello there, I just purchased an Airport Extreme router and I'm having problems getting my HP Photosmart C8180 All-in-one printer to receive print jobs even though it and my computers are all connected and visible to the new AE wireless network. This is happening to my mac and windows computers as well. Any suggestions?

EXPERT socket programmers help needed please!

I basically have this very simple client/server app, where I can enter messages at the client to send to the server, and the server will display it on its screen.
But how would I extend it to support multi client? So when I send messages from different clients, the server will diplay the message on its screen and also send the message back to all connected clients? Here's my current code
Server:
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Server {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
     ServerSocket serverSocket = new ServerSocket(5432);
     for (;;) {
         Socket clientSocket = null;
         try {
          clientSocket = serverSocket.accept();
         } catch (IOException e) {
          System.err.println("Accept failed.");
          System.exit(1);
         BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream()));
         String nextline;
         while ((nextline = in.readLine())!=null) {
          System.out.println(nextline);
         in.close();
         clientSocket.close();
}Client
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class Client {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
     Socket csocket = null;
     PrintWriter out = null;
     try {
         csocket = new Socket("localhost", 5432);
         out = new PrintWriter(csocket.getOutputStream(), true);
     } catch (IOException e) { }
     BufferedReader stdIn = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
     String nextline;
     while ((nextline = stdIn.readLine()) != null) {
         out.println(nextline);
     out.close();
     csocket.close();
     stdIn.close();
}

Printing Help Needed

How do you print witn Adobe Reader legal and letter sized paper which are in one pdf file, the documented solution does not work on HP printers using Windows XP....

you would have to network both your mac and your desktop together... share the printer on the computer that it is connected to... then on your mac you can set up a wireless printer by going into system preferences, printer and follow the steps.... in order for you to have wireless printing you have to make sure that the computer that the printer is connected to is always turned on.. printing will not work if the computer is turned off.
