Fix acrobat 10.1.9 - print driver wont funtion after update

After the 10.1.9 update in acrobat X. I can no longer print to teh print driver from other applications. It goes to print and then fails with error message in printer que.
I've tried to reload update but no change. What to do?

Anoop
The error message was in the printer que and would just state " Error printing" under status.
I think I have fixed it for now. I deleted the adobe printer listed another as my default and re ran the update. This created a new printer and I changed it back to my default printer and it has worked a couple of times so far. We'll see how long it lasts.
This is not the first time I've had an issue like this. The adobe printer has failed several times on me in the past, mostly only failing on occasion until it gets worse to the point of not working. It's frustratng to print something and have nothing happen or maybe it will. I'm wondering now if it has been becuase of an update. Every once in a while my computer will quit printing to the adobe printer and I have to go through a blind man's redo this change that repair until it starts working again for some reason. Mostly in the past I have been able to delete and recreate the printer to get it working again. This time it wouldn't work even after fixing the update, reloading the update, re-running the update. The thing I changed when it did work was to delete the printer and list another printer as my default. When I reran the update it created a new printer that worked??????????
So far - you are the only help I have found with this issue. I and our IT guy have spent alot of time looking for something on this issue and find nothing. If you have any light to shed on this I would appreciate it.
Thanks

  • Printer Driver wont work after upgrade to 10.6

    I just updated my OS to 10.6.8 (from 10.5x), and my printer driver won't work right. I have a Samsung ML-3051ND. I wasn't able to make double-sided copies, so i downloaded and installed the latest version (supposedly 10.6 friendly) from the Samsung website. Now, whenever I try to print I get an error message saying my printer driver isn't installed correctly, please try again. I did reinstall, following the directions from the Samsung website. Still the same error message. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

    OK, I found an answer that works on the MacRumors forum.
    In system pref>printer & faxes> on the left side, you should have a list of printers. You need to right click in the white box andreset printing system. This deletes all the printers. Then add theprinter. It worked like a champ after that.

  • Epson Perfection 2400 Scanner issue with Epson Print Driver 2.4.1 Update

    After the Epson Print Driver 2.4.1 update, my scanner quit working with Image
    Capture, which hangs during the overview scan. The scanner makes a pass over
    the document, but Image Capture just sits for a while saying "Overview Scan..."
    and then fails with a generic error message.
    I tried the suggestion in [11993273|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11993273&#11993273 ], but that did not work for me.
    Any other ideas?

    Thank's for the suggestion, but no help.
    It is not straight-forward to uninstall the driver because Apple installer
    does not offer an uninstall option. I resorted to
    sudo find /Library -iname "epson" -print -exec mv {} ~/Desktop/epson \;
    in the terminal. Reboot. Ran EPSONPrinterDrivers.pkg. Ran Disk Utility's
    Repair Permissions. Reboot. Added scanner back in the System Preferences.
    Opened Image Capture, the overview scan started and a few minutes later
    *Scanner reported and error*
    An error occured during scanning.

  • Photoshop CS5 - colour settings in Print menu not working after update Mac OSX maverick

    After upgrading to Maverick OSX on the iMac printing from CS5 via Epson R3880 is not working correctly. In Print Settings menu the drop downs for Colour and Colour Settings are greyed out. I already re-installed PS and installed the new drivers from epson. Any ideas?

    but after choosing PS manages color, the options in the print menu for choosing color (color or b&W) and color settings are not available anymore. They used to be the last three years I printed with photoshop/epson 3880.
    Instead they are greyed out now.

    If Photoshop managed color, then the controls in the printer driver are supposed to be grayed out - that's how Apple specifies drivers to work (because only one party should be managing the print color).
    So what you're describing is perfectly normal.

    Printing from my email account (Cox) is OK

    When my wife updated Firefox to version 7.0.1 she was no longer able to print items from the web such as coupons. She can print from her email (Cox) account.
    She is running Vista.
    When I updated to Firefox 7.0.1, I did not have a problem. I am running Vista also.
    Tried using the Firefox help page but no help so far.
    I did notice that on her computer in the "Plugins" for Firefox that HP Smart Web Printing is now disabled and is not compatible with Firefox 7.0.1. She had no problems until she did the update.

  • What is the Acrobat 7 Adobe PDF printer driver name?

    I can no longer print to my "Adobe PDF" printer.
    I have Acrobat 7.1.0 (as part of Creative Suite 2) on my small travel laptop system running Windows XP Professional, SP3. 
    Recently, if I try to print to a PDF file from Firefox, I get:
          "an unexpected error has occurred" or "an unknown error has occurred while printing".
    I went to the Adobe PDF printer itself and if I try to choose the properties, I get "The Adobe PDF Converter' is not installed on this computer. Then it asks me if I want to install the driver now.  If I say yes, it wants the driver name, which I don't know and don't see obvious candidates.   If I say no, and I see the properties for the PDF printer, it says the driver is "Adobe PDF Converter", but I guess the underlying driver file is missing.
    I found a posting for how to manually reinstall the printer on Acrobat 10, but my directory structure is different and I don't have a file called pdf.inf, so I suspect the driver name is different in Acrobat 7. 
    I can still launch Acrobat 7 just fine, and have tried doing the repair from the help menu twice, and rebooted afterward.  No luck.
    I didn't delete the Adobe PDF printer before the repair.  I was afraid to.
    I could go back to the original CS2 disks, but then I'll lose all the updates I've downloaded and installed over the years.  I don't know if Adobe even has the updates for CS2 online anymore.
    I suspect if I knew the name of the PDF printer driver in Acrobat 7, I may be able to fix it. Even if the file got deleted, I likely have it on an old backup.
    Does anyone know the name of the ".inf" driver file for the Adobe PDF printer in Acrobat7 (CS2)?
    If not, is there something else I can run from the setup files that will reinstall the PDF converter?
    Thanks.
    Cindy

    I cannot confirm, but feel confident that Adobe has the updates available for CS2.
    Reinstall from the disks.
    I just looked through my XP system running CS2; I cannot see an easy way to reinstall the Adobe PDF Printer, but it is already installed there.

  • Why does my Acrobat Pro 9 PDF print driver either lock up or become confused as to where it should store a file when printing a document from within the Firefox browser?

    I use Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.4.5 for creating .pdf files on a Windows XP SP3 platform. Firefox 6.0.2 is my browser of choice. This question only applies to the .pdf printing process. All other printer drivers work fine with this version of Firefox.
    In attempt to save paper, I choose to print most documents in an electronic .pdf format using the PDF print driver and save them to my USB drive. Before upgrading my Firefox version to 6.0.2 this process seemed to work fine but after upgrading the .pdf print process seems to be experiencing problems. This particular printing process will cause Firefox to lock up when the distiller tries to print the file to what I believe is a temporary folder under the Adobe folder. When it does this I am sometimes able to force it to complete the process but frequently it will only produce a log not a .pdf file. On other occasions the distiller will just lock up mid print without producing any kind of error message. In both cases I will frequently have to use Windows Task Manager to break out of the process which then shuts down the Firefox browser. I don't seem to have any problems when I use Internet Explorer to perform the same function. As far as I am aware I am running the most current drivers as Adobe automatically pushes down updates to me as they become available. Any ideas how I can overcome this issue or is it inherent to the new version of Firefox?

    The PDF file itself does not control the "print as image" preference, which should always be turned OFF unless there's a specific need to rasterize the entire page, and is turned off by default in all Acrobat and Adobe Reader installations.
    What's the filetype for the ultralight font and what export setting* are you using in ID? If you're exporting to earlier than PDF1.7, OpenType fonts will be converted and may experience some small changes in shape if their hint definitions aren't done right.
    *As a side note, bear in mind that InDesign does not use any part of Acrobat when exporting PDFs, so questions specific to that stage in the process should be posted to the InDesign forums.

  • Printer (Driver) issue only after reinstalling 10.6.8

    For some reason since I reinstalled my mac os (I transferred everything from time machine and did the updates, including a printer driver update) after my printer has been idle, it can't be found by my computer.  In theory there's nothing wrong with my wireless router, as everything possible with that has been tried and failed to resolve the issue.  When I go into the console logs, I get these errors, always together, every ten seconds or so: 
    9/12/11 5:27:05 PM          com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[92]          (com.hp.devicemonitor[2063]) posix_spawn("/Library/Printers/hp/hpio/HP Device Monitor.app/Contents/MacOS/HP Device Monitor", ...): No such file or directory
    9/12/11 5:27:05 PM          com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[92]          (com.hp.devicemonitor[2063]) Exited with exit code: 1
    9/12/11 5:27:05 PM          com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[92]          (com.hp.devicemonitor) Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
    If I put my computer to sleep with a print job in the que, when the computer wakes up it will connect, but will then stop immediately after that transfer, where if I try to print something, it says the printer is offline and can't find the printer.  The same is true with the connecting if I turn off the printer and turn it back on - whatever's in the que will print.  But once it goes idle for more than a few seconds, I'm screwed.  I'm at my wits end with this.  I've called Belkin (maker of my router), HP, maker of my printer (it's an HP CP1525NW that's having the issue), etc. and no resolution.  Also, when my computer tells me that it can't find the printer, it has no trouble connecting to the internet as I can find the printer if I open it's IP address in safari or firefox, and play on farmtown in FB all I want, but the print que/utility will NOT find the printer.  Please help me.  Thank you in advance if your advice is helpful/almost helpful. 
    Another thing I found was this in my console:  9/12/11 10:58:50 AM          mDNSResponder[18]          Client application bug: DNSServiceResolve(HP\032LaserJet\032CP1525nw\032(843086)._ipp._tcp.local.) active for over two minutes. This places considerable burden on the network.
    I'm confused as to whether this means anything.  The HP laserjet cp1525nw (843086) is what my computer calls my printer when it's wireless; the wired (usb) one doesn't have the (843086) after it. 
    And one other thing - if I search this very same error on google, the only thing that will come up is someone having trouble with a brand new MBP with the screen flickering and the graphics device switching.  For whatever reason when the person got rid of HP from their user logs or something the flicker issue went away but they started seeing this very same series of errors.  My screen is fine except for the fact that sometimes when it comes out of sleep the screen will go black.  I've had that problem for a long time, it doesn't happen very often (thank God), and while this has been going on (before the reinstall), I had NO trouble with my printer.  Nothing seems to make sense.   

    One other thing I forgot to mention.  If I hook the printer up using a usb cable, it prints fine without issues. 

  • HT3669 Printer/ scanner not working after update driver

    Since the last Friday printer driver update, my HP Photosmart C6180 is not scanning any more.
    Also the wifi printing is unavailable.
    Anybody else experiencing this?
    Any suggestions?

    Thanks for your help.
    In the meantime I did a reset of all my printers (same printer, but in different configurations) and defined them all again.
    It does not go as smoothly as before, but it's workable.
    Apple should not update these drivers without testing or give a warning how to handle these.
    It means a lot of extra time and work for no reason.
