Extreme lag for Print window with networked printer

Hi, i have 10.4 on an iMac and my Powerbook.
I have a USB printer shared via airport from the iMac.
With any program, the first time I click "print" it lags extremely. The delay is like 3 minutes. The first few times it hung like that I forced quit the programs, but have since learned it recovers if you leave it. Subsequent printing panels come up instantly.
If I turn off airport the print dialog comes up instantly even in newly opened programs.
So, my question is, what the heck? Is there anything I can do? I didn't have this probem in 10.3, so I guess this is an introduced bug. I don't believe the configuration ahs otherwise changed.
thanks.

If your previous Epson worked via Windows Printing, then you know that you can't use an Epson-supplied driver for Windows Printing. You Must use a Gutenprint driver or other CUPS modular driver. The Epson driver is limited to USB only. If there isn't a Gutenprint driver yet available, you may need to buy a CUPS modular driver from www.printfab.net.

  • EXTREME lag after installing Windows 8.1 pro via / Bootcamp assistant

    Hey guys, today I've literally been through **** trying to get this game working on my MacBook Pro.
    I've basically gone out & bought Windows 8, created a partition on my hardrive (of my MacBook Pro) & installed it into that partition using Apples 'Bootcamp assistant'. After installing the operating system I also loaded the drivers which were given to me by Apples 'Bootcamp assistant'.
    I now have the game on the Windows 8 (on my MacBook) which is a £2000 machine... I have got to the menu & experienced extreme lag to the point where I've even managed to turn down all my video settings & it is still lagging a lot despite my high-end computer hardware - here is my computer http://store.apple.c...B/A&step=config#
    I have tried running the game on this website http://www.systemrequirementslab.com & everything is great but it says I don't have the required 512MB of video RAM... It says I have 256MB. This is complete ********? I believe I have 2GB of GDDR5 video RAM. It also says that my graphics card is called 'Microsoft Basic Display Adapter'. So I believe this is where the issue lies. My theory is for some reason one of the drivers which I have installed which was given to me by the Bootcamp assistant is messing with me.
    This is literally all the information I can possibly provide, does anybody know how I could fix this?
    Thanks you!

    If the underlying hardware was exposed correctly by the CSM-BIOS when Windows was installed, your Device Manager should look like this.
    If the Windows installer did not see any devices as your screen indicates, Windows will use generic software-based drivers which will be very slow and painful.
    Rudegar ... I think the Windows installer did not see  any hardware, otherwise there should be HW with yellow triangles with exclamation marks.

  • Macbook extreme lag for a sudden

    Hi there guys,
    I have a macbook pro which is 2011-2012. One day i opened my computer and suddenly it became very laggy. I couldn't stop it and i searched for answes in the internet. I check my cpu usage and my cpuusages sits araound 9% idle. I don't know what is causing the lag and i had nothing oopen. I tried to relaunch my finder then there was no lag for a sudden then when finder reopened it started to lag. I could hear the noise from the fans but i wasn't doing anything with no applications open. I checked my disk to see if there were any damage, but nothing. I couldn't find out what was causing the lag and i am using the MB to type this Discussion.
    Any ithings i can do to resolve this lag? Thanks.

    Top Priority is to make certain you have current backups, as this could be a symptom of a failing Hard Drive.
    Use this article to examine your typical memory usage:

    You can also take a screen shot with command-Shift-4 and drag over the important area, and post that screenshot file with the little camera Icon in the forum header.

  • Network lagging for printing and classic

    I have a weird problem. I just upgraded an iMac tray-load 333Mhz 320mb ram to OS 10.3.9 from OS 9.2.2 and now when I go to print it takes up to 20 mins per page. Also when running a filemaker database from a mac server in Classic the network lag makes the database almost unuseable. I know it's not the printer because it printer (HP Laserjet 2200D) as it works just fine with 3 other iMac computers on the same network. The database also works just fine on the other 3 computers. Listing files on other computers via file-sharing is also sluggish (explains the database slowness). I have tried swapping the network cables and hooking up to a different hub. I thought it might just be the ethernet card going out but internet browsing is plenty fast (tested at DSL reports.com)

    Just a thought, Depending on a couple of things, If you Installed from scratch the HP Printer Set-up utility or you are trying to carry it over from 9.2 I find it best to start from scratch that includes going to HP's site and download the latest updates and drivers for your Operating System and Printer. If they download to your desktop be sure you drag them to the Applicatins and Hp Folder before you double click and launch them if they do not go there automaticlly.
    Cheers Don

  • Extreme Lag for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn

    I'm in Boston. My internet plan is FiOS 50/25. Ever since December 24th, whenever Square Enix took down their own servers for maintenance, there has been excruciating lag throughout the game. It is described as a constant 3-5 second delay causing rubberbands and basically hindering the game unplayable. It is more terrible in the night. Other ISP users in my area, such as Comcast are not experiencing these problems. I heard about it could be P2P throttling issues. Please help.

    DRay, Yeah im getting the same thing, I have been battling with the same thing now for two weeks.  I have made multiple calls to Verizon with little successful.
    I have had my support ticket closed on me and I have been told the usual speil (give it time it will fix itself) and Verizon has no responsabiliy.beyond the 5th hop.
    Sadly there is no relief.
    I had a tech out here today who was given a service order to replace the ONT because the Level 2 network engineer didn't want to deal with the issue.
    Square will not help you and will point back to your ISP (Verizon), Verizon will not help you with the issue and point towards Square (level 3 specifically in this case.
    I welcome anyone with Verizon who actually wants to make a difference to a customer to reach out and work with me to get a ticket logged with your peering network Level 3 to resolve this issue but im not holding my breath.
    Your best bet is to find someone elses wifi to jump onto when you're playing FF14.
    If you really want to keep using FIOS, you will need to grab a service like WTFast which will allow you to tunnel your traffic via their service around the poor (or overloaded) switch at level 3.
    Oh and don't even bother trying to call level 3, they will not help you

  • S20 Won't boot to windows with network cable connected

    S20-4157, Windows 7 x64
    Every time I reboot my machine, I have to unplug the network cable.  I can plug it back in after I log in.  If I don't, it gets stuck on the windows startup screen.
    I think this is related to the lenovo power manager.  I get the following event log error on boot:
    The following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load:
    TPPWRIF
    When I go to control panel, and start the power manager app, it does not start.  Locked up with splash screen.  I tried uninstalling the program as well, and cannot.  Get an "unable to run on this system" message when I try to uninstall.

    That's odd to say the least.  DId this app come installed from the factory?  I'm not sure why a thinkpad power manager utility would be included in our preloads.  The fact that you're not able to uninstall it sort of concerns me.  Have you tried uninstalling via safemode or when logged in as administrator?

  • Transaction Code for Purchase Order with Network, Activity, and Element

    I have been asked for a transaction code that will allow the user to view the Purchase Order, Network, Activity, and Element on the same transaction.  I have been able to use CN41 to get them the Purchase Requisition, Network, Activity, and Element, but cannot seem to find one for the Purchase Order. 
    I feel like this should be easy...
    Any ideas?

    I have 10.1.11 and was amaized to find no hand tool. The graphics select is also only accesable from the edit menu. I am acustomed to having all these within easy access with a  button for each. Is there a version that still gets security updates that has this?

    Right-click the toolbar and you'll be able to add the Hand tool to it.

  • Cannot boot into Safe Mode with Networking - Windows 8.1 Update

    I'm trying to boot into safe mode with networking. I can successfully boot into Safe Mode, but my Network Access is always disabled.
    I've tried msconfig / Click on Restart / Restart Now from the Update and Recovery menu in 'Change PC Settings'. They all eventually get me to the Same boot options menu which says ... F4 for Safe mode, F5 for Safe mode with Networking etc..  I
    select the F5 Safe mode with Networking and it re-boots into Safe mode but I have no network access. 
    I'm connecting to my home ADSL, no proxy required. If I boot normally I have network & internet access, but in 'F5 Safe mode with Networking' my networking is disabled.
    Windows 8.1 Pro x64

    I can see that I am actually connected to my router, but the network icon still shows as disconnected.
    What about the Network list via the Settings charm (Win-I)?  Last week I was having problems with that one after long sleeps.  Later I realized that although I could see the icon in the Settings charm (as normal) when I clicked on it, it still
    showed the same icon as I was expecting; the difference is that it didn't show "Connected"; so, clicking on the icon proved that it was offering a Connect button and clicking that finally got me connected.  Meanwhile the troubleshooters were misleading
    at best and destructive at worst, suggesting I power things off, etc.  I don't know if there was a fix for this specific symptom or whether I just tried a different path but yesterday instead of trying the above procedure I tried to see what the Network
    troubleshooter associated with IE's "unable to connect" page would do; amazingly it identified the problem precisely.  That connection had somehow acquired a connect manually attribute.  The troubleshooter offered to fix that problem for me
    and I accepted.  Since then, no more problem.

    after upgrading to mountain lion i keep getting an error message saying my startup disc is full. it shouldnt be full because there is barely anything on there and i was running windows with bootcamp prior to this with no issues. my computer now freezes and programs close randomly. The usual command for opening windows with bootcamp doesnt work. once in restarted my computer after it froze and it rebooted in windows automatically. i really just want to know if there is a way to take the upgrade off my laptop because it is very annoying.

    Hi Memalyn
    Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
    My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
    If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
    Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
    Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

  • Since Mavericks Upgrade iMac won't shutdown with network cable plugged in

    Since Upgrading to Mavericks my iMac won't shutdown - just stays on grey timer screen.
    I tried multiple fixes from forum suggestions.
    If I unplug the network cable it seems to shutdown fine.
    How can I fix this issue?

    I am working with a T42 (old computer) and it will not boot into Windows with network cable plugged in. It hangs just after the Windows splash screen. Unplug the cable turn off and back on and it works fine.

  • Windows 7 64 bit machine with printer installed locally takes 2-3 minutes for printing most of the time and fails to print some time.

    Our customer  have 3-4 windows machines in local area network (No Domain Login) with different OS versions and platform architecture (32 / 64 bit)
    I have no idea about the configuration of  machine to which printer is hooked up but it is running Windows for sure.
    This machine is accessible from any other machine in LAN. They have another machine running Windows 7 64 bit OS  on which they have installed the printer connected to earlier machine  using local printer driver installation
    with local TCP/IP port being selected during installation. Installation goes well,  printer gets installed successfully and  shows ready state. but when we try to print anything on it takes 2-3 minutes to complete print job. They have tried
    this on printers with couple of different model and make but the result is same delayed printing. They have also tried to install different printer drivers like HP printer model specific driver and HP universal driver too , but the result is
    the same in all cases. earlier when they were using  32 bit XP machine with printer installed same way that they installed now for win 7 64 , there was no issue seen with regards delayed printing. is this a issue with windows  7 64
    bit printing system ? or it has to do something with mixed and matched (32/64 bit )printer drivers running on different machines on LAN ?
    I will try to get more information with regards to the machine to which printer is connected.In the mean please revert back to me if any one had face similar issue and able to resolve it successfully.    
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi,
    Have you tried ping ip address of printer? and check if there exists any data lost in network connection. If your network connection is crowded, it can cause delay for printer.
    Also, please attempt to disable all security software temporarily, such as antivirus, firewalls,etc and
    clear all printer cache.
    Locate to task manager, check the state of spoolsv.exe, including cpu and memory. If it has high cpu or memory usage, it may be caused by malware. Thus, you'd better to make a full scan with the latest anti-virus.

  • Adobe reader XI: doule sided print problem with network printer (windows 8 pro)

    Hi, I'm facing a problem with my old printer, the xerox phaser 3160n. It was connected to my notebook through network connection, and everything works well with Adobe X /Win 7 OS (including the double side print, of course) last month, I have upgraded my NB to windows 8 with clean install
    clean install my printer driver for windows 8 too, and Adobe reader XI was also downloaded through official website.
    However, since I was about to use double sided print in Adobe reader XI (11.00.02) it couldn't obey the order, but just print one side as usual
    I have checked the "option" of my printer, and it was correctly set to "double-sided print". I have tried word 2013 to open the same pdf, and choose the same "double-sided print" and it works perfectly.
    Is this problem a bug? and would it be corrected in the next update version??
    (I remeber I've saw a similar issue too, with network printer, but I couldn't find it)
    Thanks!!!

    Hi,
    Meanwhile, after insatlling the latest driver for printer from the manufacture website, restart the spooler service as a test.
    Start > Run > cmd and type "net stop spooler" after that "net start spooler" or start > run > service.msc and restart it over the GUI.
    Run Printer Troubleshootor under Action Center\Troubleshooting\Programs\Printer, and check if it helps.
    And yes, the manufacture should have more sence about the printer, it's recommended to contact them.
