Fix For Slow Printing To IPP Printer Pool

Here's a fix that might help someone out there:
I have a printer pool with two HP Laserjet printers that's shared via IPP on an Xserve running Mac OS X Server 10.5.
One of the printers is offline with a fuser error, so as expected, the server is sending all jobs to the other printer; however even small jobs are now taking an extra 1-2 minutes to get to that printer. Before one of the printers went offline, small jobs would print almost instantaneously.
Since printing speed was normal for other, non-pooled printers shared by the server, I figured the delay was probably related to the server taking too long to decide that the offline printer was actually offline.
I figured that the fastest way for the server to determine that a pooled printer is busy is when it has a job in its queue waiting to print. So, I logged into the server and sent a job directly to the offline printer's queue; the job will just sit there and won't print, but the server will think the printer is busy.
That eliminated the delay. It's annoying that the delay is there at all, since the whole point of the printer pool is too have redundancy if one printer runs out of paper or malfunctions. If anyone has any ideas on a more concrete way to eliminate this delay, please share them.

Hi,
Do the programs freeze for about 2 minutes each time when attempting to print something?
Do we use spooling? If not, we can enable the setting
Spool print documents so program finishes printing faster and its sub-setting
Start printing immediately to see if it helps.
Regarding this setting, the following article can be referred to for more information.

How to fix extremely slow printing from web pages with latest updates (iMac) & HP Office jet printer. (It was not a problem with earlier versions of Firefox & same computer & printer.)

The latest two updates of Mozilla Firefox are not useful for me because of extremely slow printing of web pages. It was never a problem before. Same iMac and HP officejet printer. How can I either fix it, or revert to an earlier version of the browser (without losing all my bookmarks) which didn't cause this problem?

Try scanning from your Mac. Use Image Capture app in your Applications folder.
Click once on the scanner on the left side, then click on Show Details along the bottom. Along the right side you will see LOTS of options for scanning and saving.

Potential fix for slow/unreliable network on Macbook Air running Mavericks

Hi all,
I work in IT support at University of Manchester, UK and have found a fix for for network issues we were experiencing with Macbook Air laptops running Mavericks. These Airs were having issues connecting to our WiFi and experiencing slow downloads, even when switched over to UBS LAN adaptors.
Anyhow, after trawling these forums without success I stumbled upon this solution myself so thought I'd share:
Basically, if you are experiencing speed/connection issues go into the 'Advanced' network settings and change the IPv6 setting from 'Automatic' to 'Link Local' and then reboot. Hopefully, after doing this you should find your speed levels return to expected levels!
Hope it works for you.
Cheers.

Fix for slow opening files... soon?

We have several stations set up globally in various offices using Photoshop CS...
Image files, no matter how small the file is... even a single small JPG takes a good 10-15 seconds to open (win xp) and we frequently need to work with hundreds of images. This seems to be a major problem and from what I find on Google, not uncommon...
I finally ran into this temporary 'fix' in the archives which involves setting up a LOCAL printer/driver as a DEFAULT...
While that DID alleviate that problem, I can't see that adobe is just letting this be THE fix for the problem... I've done updates to our CS3 products and have a difficult time believing that there is no permanent fix for this yet.
It seems unlike adobe to expect so many clients to have to experience this problem, spending hours or days trying to figure out why their systems have slowed down and asking themselves questions mostly unrelated to the problem, such as 'did i run out of swap space on my drive?', 'how are my history/cache settings?', 'is there some network drive causing the problem?', 'Is there some spyware slowing my box?', etc...
And on top of that having to notify all the offices... 'Okay guys, if you use photoshop you need to do this, this, and that... temporarily'
Please tell me there is a permanent fix soon...

I don't know which versions of photoshop need to check/contact the network printer...
For volumes of image processing via the batch commands I often need to use our old Photoshop 6 which, even with the network (a fairly large corporate network) the files open up almost instantly... every time... unless they're huge print resolution images...
On the same network for such a task (batching hundreds of images) PS CS3 is unuseable to us unless we implement the local printer 'fix'... and even so, there is more of a delay than with our old photoshop...
And why does it need to contact the printer for each file that is opened? For the first one, sure... check it, done... I'm not printing dammit, just opening files.
If it needs printer information the local OS already has drivers loaded up, couldn't it check those? It shouldn't have to look for other network devices on there unless it's using them... but I'm no tech... so there must be a reason that it simply MUST do it...
And even so... why is this 'fix' so damn hard to find on the net? Tons of people with issues and a lone, difficult-to-find blurb as an obscure fix...?

Fix For Slow Down Worked!

From a previous fix - this worked to eliminate what was a 5 to 10 minute startup and shut down problem for our iMAC using OS X 10.5.8. with the 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo processor - from a thread from a while back (and sorry, I am not going through all the folks that contributed, but the dogs are ready to go outside):
(full excerpt below my procedures)
Procedures -
x - first close all unnecessary applications
1 - go to applications
2 - load the Terminal App
3 - type: sudo chown root:admin /
4 - then press the return key
5 - type in your password when asked (the screen will not show that you are typing)and the press the return key
6 - type: sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel
7 - then press the return key
8 - type: sudo kextcache -system-caches
9 - then press the return key
10 - close the Terminal app
I then shut down my computer, started it up, let it fully boot, shut it down a second time, then when I restarted everything was back to normal!!!
Here is the actual excerpt I used to fix the slowness - don't ask me how it works, cuz I am a novice:
From mad84max and user gbvin:
Go to the Terminal App
"It seems that somehow the ownership of my root directory (/) wasn't assigned to the root account anymore, but to myself instead. This made the kernel prelinking fail since it requires that root is the owner. This is how you solve this after launching the Terminal app:
terminal commands
sudo chown root:admin /
sudo kextcache -system-prelinked-kernel
sudo kextcache -system-caches
You'll have to enter your password after the first command."
Hope this will help you since it was really frustrating for me.

I had slowness on my 3G after upgrading to iOS 4, but I found a simple fix here:
http://www.davekawalec.com/2010/07/3-steps-to-fix-iphone-3g-slowness-after-ios4- upgrade/
It's basically the same steps you recommend, but then after a reboot, you can turn all of the search functions back on. I haven't had a performance problem since I did this.

My fix for slow boot after Leopard Upgrade

I was having the same issue as a lot of others in posts about extremely slow boot up times after upgrading from Tiger to Leopard. I spent a lot of time on the phone with Apple Support but in the end I stumbled across a fix for my situation.
After power up and getting to the login screen (about 5-6 seconds), it would take about 3 minutes to fully populate the desktop after entering my password. Most of that time just sitting at the login screen. Extremely painful.
My MacBook connects to a Windows Active Directory network. I was able to fix my slowness by disabling the Active Directory service. I was concerned at first but my bound volumes still work. I don't use a lot of AD services from my Mac so I at this point I have not found any issue with this fix.
To disable, go to Directory Utility, select services and if you have Active Directory enabled, disable it.
My boot time increased from 3 minutes to less than 15 seconds. Better than Tiger.
Tech Support is aware of this issue and has reported it the OS team for a fix.

Hi-
Do you have a Tiger volume to test your machine with?
Do you still have video in Tiger?
If you don't have a Tiger volume to test on, I would consider such as an important troubleshooting step
So now I am wondering if it is the PCI slot that suddenly stopped working after the OS upgrade. Does anyone know if this is a documented issue and if there is a fix for it?
There are no issues with the AGP slot in relation to an OS version.

FAQ: Fix for Problem Printing PostScript "to file" Under Windows 2000

PROBLEM
A number of Acrobat users under Windows 2000 have reported a problem in which printing via the PostScript driver fails when printing "to file" instead of to a standard printer port (such an LPT, USB, TCP/IP port, or even Acrobat's internal port). Printing "to file" refers to the ability to check an option in programs such as FrameMaker or Microsoft Word that causes the PostScript that would have gone to a "real" printer port, to go to a specified file name, prompted for by the driver or application itself. The symptom of the failure may be either (1) no file produced and/or (2) a nondescript error message about "unable to print."
Although we have not yet heard of this problem occurring under Windows XP, we have no reason to believe it couldn't given the extreme similarity in architecture and software components. If you are seeing this with Windows XP, please advise me of this via email and simply substitute "Windows XP" for "Windows 2000" for your purposes in this posting.
CAUSE
The problem is caused by a missing printing port named "FILE:" used by the driver whenever it, guess what, prints "to file." This port is automatically created when Windows 2000 is installed and normally would never disappear. What seems to be happening, based upon reports that I have received from several end users, is that under some conditions yet unidentified, uninstalling one version of Acrobat in preparation for installation of another (newer) version of Acrobat causes the "FILE:" port to be deleted from the system. This printing port deletion does not appear to be caused by any end-user error.
Adobe's Acrobat Quality Assurance group has been alerted to the problem, but to date has been unable to internally reproduce the problem. We would appreciate any information from any user who encounters this problem in terms of exactly how the Acrobat Distiller printer instance was being used prior to an uninstall of Acrobat (for example, were you printing a FrameMaker book "to file" with the
Acrobat Distiller printer instance for purposes of subsequently distilling the whole book manually?)
FIX
Fortunately, it is very easy to add the "FILE:" port back into the operating system:
(1) Logon to Windows 2000 as a user with Administrator privileges.
(2) Go to Start=>Settings=>Printers.
(3) Select File=>Server Properties.
(4) Click the "Ports" tab.
(5) Click "Add Port".
(6) Select "Local Port" and click "New Port".
(7) In response to "Enter a port name:" respond "FILE:" (without the surrounding quote marks, of course) and click OK.
(8) The "FILE:" port should now be in the list of available ports. You may close the remaining dialogs.
At this point, printing "to file" should work correctly. Most likely, you will not see the problem reoccur unless you do another round of uninstalls of Acrobat.

FIX for EPSON Print CD V2.02 - EPSON Stylus Photo R200 - MAC OS 10.5.9

I thought I'd post this ridiculously long info sheet on what finally got my R200 to work with EPSON Print CD and 10.5.8 just in case it might help someone else BEFORE they spend days searching for a solution.
Check the printer driver information in System Preferences, Print & Fax. If it says anything other than EPSON SP R200 Series, you’ve likely located the problem. My system showed the Gutenprint v5.1.3 and /or CUPS/+GIMP... I originally replaced the Gutenprint driver file with the CUPS... file thinking this would solve the Gutenprint driver problem. But, as I continued to look into what was going on, I think I found out that both driver files are actually considered Gutenprint driver files.
1. Select the hard drive where the operating system is located.
2. Select Library/Printers.
3. Select the Epson folder and delete it and then Empty Trash to make sure it’s gone.
4. Select Library/Preferences.
5. Select the Epson folder and delete any files that are there.
(Steps 4 & 5 might not be necessary, but I’m listing everything that I did.)
6. In System Preferences, select Printers and Fax. Control click in listing area and select Reset Printers.
7. Load the Leopard Installation CD and select Optional Installation.
8. Select Printers and select Epson. This will reload the printer drivers for all the EPSON printers that are included on the install CD.
9. Go back to the System Preferences, Printers and Fax window. Click on the + sign to add a printer.
10. There will likely be a listing with Printer Name as EPSON Stylus Photo R200, Kind as USB.
11. Click on an arrow in the Print Using: box and select EPSON SP R200 Series. The printer icon changed dramatically at this point, with a rainbow of colors on the document shown coming out of the printer.
Note: **Working within the Print & Fax app seems to be key to getting the settings corrected.** Someone else pointed out that they also found this necessary. However, I couldn’t get the proper “Print Using:” option to appear until I cleaned out the Library/Printers/Epson folder, “Reset Printers”, and reloaded the EPSON printer drivers from the Leopard installation CD.
I had previously done the “Reset Printers” and reloaded the printer files, but as was advised against in the post I mentioned, I selected the “More Printers” option. That’s where I found the EPSON Stylus Photo R200 listed with the CUPS+Gimp ... and the Gutenprint driver listing options. Selecting what appeared to be the Gutenprint alternate printer driver didn’t help at all. I’m not sure if the EPSON SP R200 driver file was missing from the original listing of printer drivers or if I just missed it. I certainly would have looked for it if I had known it was the one that’s needed.
12. Open the EPSON Print CD V2.02 app. Although I had already installed the Easy Print update, I got a message saying that the application needed the update to work. So, I reinstalled the Easy Print update.
13. After reinstalling the Easy Print update, I reselected Update Printer Information. Much to my amazement, I got a message and a progress indicator showing the Printer Information was being updated to reflect the EPSON Stylus Photo R200 printer.
14. When the Update Printer Information process had completed, I clicked on Print and suddenly found that I was able to choose Select Printer and pick the EPSON Stylus Photo R200 and CD/DVD wondrously appeared in the Media Type.
After this point, all the other instructions that are provided from EPSON seemed to work just fine.
Hopefully, there’s enough information in here somewhere that people with other operating systems and printers might at least be able to get a clue . . .

I dug around on the Epson site and found this which seemed to address the exact problem so they obviously know about it. Unfortunately even these rather drastic steps failed to solve the issue for me.

HP Photosmart 309a - the fix for not printing black, resulted in wireless radio not functioning.

My HP Photosmart 309a printer was not printing black, trying various ideas from this forum, I used the #6 reset (after replacing cartridges etc etc). This was successful and the black printed out on a test page, but then I couldn't reconnect wirelessly to the PC.
The Wireless Network Test Report says the Wireless is on, but that the Wireless radio is not functioning. (It seems that the #6 did something to the Wireless on the printer.)
The #6 reset turned the wireless radio off. After I turned it on again its search still did not find any wireless routers.
I have tried various printer resets, #3, #6 to no avail. Would appreciate any further ideas.
This is my second HP printer. I got rid of my last one recently, when I couldn't get it to print black, even though it was stilll quite new. This one is certainly not a year old, but because we are selling our house and have put almost everything in storage I don't have access to the receipts, so cannot get the printer replaced.

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are getting the error message, "The printer is not connected," with your HP Photosmart 7520, on Mac OS X 10.10. I am happy to help! Please, try the steps in the following guides: 'Printer Offline' or 'Printer Not Responding' Message (OS X).Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection. Hope these guides help, and thank you for posting! “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

My fix for FCP6 print to video - no video

Hope this helps somebody so they don't go through what I just did.
I spent 4 hours screwing around with settings and searching forums and ripping hair out before I got print to video to work for me. Prints to all of my cameras and my DSR-20 DVCAM deck now. I had output video as 640x480 Quicktime from a 1920x480 panoramic I created and masked down in Quicktime, then read that back into FCP on the timeline. Audio, but no video on print to video. A light bulb went off that maybe I should try a different file format. I went back to the original file and re-output as DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, custom size 720x480, dropped that into the timeline and printed to video just fine.

Hi Diana,
Post more about the setup here. What format are you trying to record? Which Cameras? Are you connecting the cameras before you launch FCP? If not try that. Also might try editing to tape. Just requires a bit of black on the head of the tape to set an in point with. There's a black and Code button for that too in the Edit to Tape window.

Fix for slow fullscreen playback on xp = firefox

Ever since updating, i had a similar problem to alot of people; Apon full screening, the player ran like crap. At first, i thought it was fire fox, but i tested i in chrome, and it had the same problem.
this method worked for me>
http://www.help2go.com/Tutorials/Web_Browsers/Force_Flash_Movies_and_Animations_to_Low_Qua lity.html
Its an addon for firefox, plus a script, that forces the flash players gui to go into low quality mode, and improves the framerate of vidoes on hulu/youtube/etc extremely well in fullscreen.
The other side of the sword is that watching flash movies or games, you have to manually select a higher quality; A fine sacrafice considering youtube/hulu/etc don't even allow you to select the quality of the player itself.
The last few upgrades caused sever degerdation in framerate each time i upgraded when it came to fullscreen, streaming vids. This is a work around for firefox users, not a fix. The cause lays withen the program itself.
And i would like to personnally say, the whole "make sure your drivers are up to date" statement, has been cliche since the late 90's, and is just as useless now as it always was.What, you need the GUI to be in HD now too? If i wanted to watch HD, id use my TV and blue ray player, not watch youtube.
The problem is with your program, it is degrading preformance over every update for a large group of users, with no concernable gain from it. As it is, you are making silver light look like a very well programmed and executed video player, which is terrible. Why don't you "update" again and add a new "feature" that randomly stops half your consumers from even using the program? "Check my drivers?" Yea, go to hell, this isn't 1999 and as widely used as your program is, trying not being a ****** about it.

Is there a fix for slow wifi speed on U310?

I bought early july a IdeaPad U310 in Texas, and then I moved to Belgium to study. The wifi speed was awefullt slow. So having read the forums, i rang the support in Belgium, and after long discussion, i sent the laptop for repair. Service was fine, but extremely slow, with no information what so ever of where the pc was, if it was received for reparation... anyway, three weeks after, so that today. i received it back and, according to the intervention report, the wireless controler was replaced. The thing is, the problem ofthe U310 is not a defectuous part, it is something more fundamental. I tested the PC in various speed test website.
I have three laptop, a Lenovo W520, a HP Mini 110, and the IdeaPad U310.
I used speedtest.net and brosdbandspeedchecker.co.uk
the result are
Lenovo W520: Download: 19.64 Mbps Upload: 1.99 Mbps
HP Mini 110: Download:15.72 Mbps Upload: 1.28 Mbps
IdeaPad U310: Download 4.75 Mbps Upload:2.1 Mbps.
Now, the speed on U310 is not that catastrophic (not like the 0.3 Mbps I was getting) but still not great and rather much slower than the two other machines, and not fast enough to watch a movie in streaming, it pauses all the time.
So what should i do? Send it again?
But is there a fix to the problem? Because keeping changing the wifi controller as they did did not fix the PC. The MEDION Repair center, which is in charge to repair Lenovo for northern europe (i guess) stated as well that the test "#winstress#" as been done. What is it? Yes the wifi works, but way too slow.
Thanks for advice.

Fix For Slow Safari On Windows

A number of people reported that Safari was running very slow for them on Windows. I was someone who was also seeing the same behavior. Web pages that would open up in 2 seconds under IE7 could take literally minutes to fully draw in Safari.
Someone mentioned a proxy issue in one of the other threads, and I got to thinking about that...I made a tiny change, and the problem is gone! Safari is now full steam ahead for me, compared to the snail is was before.
Here is how I fixed the issue.
1 - Click Start and open the Control Panel.
2 - Open the "Internet Options" Control Panel.
3 - Click the "Connections" tab at the top.
4 - Click the "LAN Settings" button at the bottom.
5 - Uncheck the "Automatically Detect Settings" Box.
6 - Click OK to exit the "LAN Settings" window.
7 - Click OK to exit the "Internet Options" window.
Your mileage may vary, but this really did work for me. Nothing else I had tried (clearing the cache, re-installing, etc.) made a difference...but this did. Not sure why it's not affecting everyone, but this doesn't seem to have any negative side effects. IE7 is still working fine for me with the "Automatically Detect" box unchecked.
Enjoy!

Fix for Slow Transfers on Vision

Hello all. I thought I'd just like to give a heads up on a fix I found for the Creative Zen Vision:M and its slow transfer problems. All you have to do is download Windows Media Player . This seems to fix any sort of firmware issue between the player and the computer.
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/download/download.aspx
Not only will this fix the transfer rate for indiviual songs, but also large quantities. And on top of that, this version of Windows Media Player is outstandingly awesome.
