How do I change my printer preset on my iMac?

I have a Canon Pro9000 MarkII and it gives me an error "Support Code : 88 The media type and paper size are not set correctly. Stop printing, change the settings, and print again. If you selected Board Paper as the media type, you need to set the paper size to an art paper size (Margin 35)" Where do I go to change that? I can't do it from the PRINT setting. I have been to a 127.0.0.1:631 to change that, but now I cant access that anymore. I can't print out of my cannon and it is driving me crazy!

The first thing to do is to unadd then readd the printer, depending on the OS Black Apple, Settings> Print&fax>unlock the settings via the gold lock in the bottom left>click the printer>then the minus button in the lower left above the afore mentioned lock>then readd the printer using the plus symbol, if the issue persists redownload the support software for the printer and try again, if issue persists call Canon.

How do I change the printer resolution?

How do I change the printer resolution on my OSX 10.6.2 laptop?
I have an ubuntu print server and it seems to only work at all using the gutenprint drivers. On my ubuntu client I had to change the print resolution from "auto" to 600x600 to make it work just fine.
The best I can do is make the Mac print pages squished down to 1/4 size. I don't see the same resolution option on the Mac.
Mac OSX 10.6.2
Ubuntu Server 9.10
Printer: Canon S900
Cups driver: Canon S800 Gutenprint v5.2.3
Cups version 1.4.2 on the mac
Cups version 1.3.9 on Ubuntu Server
Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.6.2)

I can't speak for the printer directly, but most functions to change resolution are in the dropdown menu at the bottom of the print dialog. It has a gray bar running through it separating the basic functions from the advanced settings.
If you don't see that, but do see a blue button with a black triangle pointing down, click on that. Then you'll be able to set the advanced settings.
Once you set up the printer the way you like, save it as a preset. If you want that as a default, see this [MacOSXHint|http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20100125135830153].

It depends on your printer as well; my Epson AIO only does color (even when it is black font only) - or grayscale )sort of a "draft" quality) as it uses some color even for black:

How do I change the printer options on an ipad air?

i am changing service provider. Currently they overlap. My ipad is happy to find the current old provider but cannot find the new provider even when i switch to that network. I cannot find any options for changing printer options. how can I change the printer option to access the new provider? i have 4 weeks to get the answer. Thanks

If you mean that the iPad is tied to another user's iCloud account, you have to ask them to erase the device for you. You can't do it on your own. The device requires their Apple ID and password in order to turn off Find My iPad and to delete the iCloud account.
IF you just want to sign into another Apple ID (not recommended either) go to Settings>iTunes and App store>Apple ID and sign out of that ID and sign into your ID,

How do I change the printed text size.

How do I change the printed text size? This happens on everything I print out. The text is so small I can just about read it. I use a magnifying glass. Please help. Thank you.

This appears to help. I have been dealing with system preferences which only offers limited help. I recently upgraded from an older macbook, but now my macbook air text is so microscopic that it doesn't seem right.

How do you change the Print Products Store from USA to UK like you can do in IPhoto?

How do you change the Print Products Store from USA to UK like you can do in IPhoto?

Please keep in mind that Aperture is not an enhanced iPhoto, it is a different application with a different philosophy and a different intended audience. If you approach it with that in mind you will have a lot less frustration as you learn Aperture.
Aperture adds a layer of complexity that is not needed by many. iPhoto is a very powerful application and fits the needs of many amateur photographers.
As for your original issue, as I said I am surprised that iPhoto allows you do switch countries like that and am not surprised that Aperture doesn't. If this is something you really need to do working in Aperture but using iPhoto to order the prints is a good work around and will not be all that difficult to do once you get the hang of it.
As for your new question, the books in iPhoto and Aperture are different enough that the code that created the book in iPhoto wouldn't work in Aperture. What happens when you import an iPhoto library into Aperture is that the images in the book are combined into an album in Aperture with the same name as the iPhoto book. You will need to re-create the book in Aperture uaing the images in this album.
Hope this helps, post back if you have anymore questions.

Im a franklin planner user and would like to convert to ical. How can I change the print layout in ical so I can print task on the left side and calendar events on the right side.

Hi Mike3232,
I'm afraid that it's not possible to adjust the print layout in iCal. Maybe you should think about changing to another program (BusyCal, etc.) that has the option to print the layout you want?
Good luck!

How can I make a "print screen" on my iMac?

How can I make a Print Screen of my iMac? Also catching only a portion of the video?

Hello redlion53,
It sounds like you would like to take screenshots of either the entire screen or a portion of the screen. This article outlines how to perform this function:
OS X: Taking pictures of your screen
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5775
Take a picture of your entire screen
Press Command (⌘)-Shift-3. The screen shot is added to your desktop.
Take a picture of some of your screen
Press Command (⌘)-Shift-4, and then drag the crosshair pointer to select the area. Hold Shift, Option, or the Space bar while you drag to resize the selection area. To cancel, press Escape (esc) before you release the mouse button.
Take a picture of a specific window
Press Command (⌘)-Shift-4, press the Space bar, move the camera pointer over the window to highlight it, and then click.
This works with open Finder windows and most application windows.
To cancel, press Escape (esc) before you click.
Take a picture of a menu
Click the menu to reveal its contents, then press Command (⌘)-Shift-4 and drag the crosshair pointer over the area.
To take a picture of the menu without the title, hover over the menu, press Command (⌘)-Shift-4 and the Space bar.
To cancel, press Escape (esc) before you click.
Additional Information
In Mac OS X v10.6 and later, the screenshots are saved as PNG files on the desktop. They are automatically named "Screen shot (date and time).png".
You can also take pictures of the screen using the Grab app.
Some apps, such as DVD Player, may not let you take pictures of their windows.
To capture a partial screen or a window selection to the Clipboard instead of a desktop file, use Command-Shift-Control-4.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

How can I set default printer options on an iMac for an HP pro 8500 printer to print in draft mode?

How can I set default printer options on an iMac for an HP pro 8500 printer to print in draft mode?

When you use the Canon driver, the 2 sided printing is set in a different location. There is an entire menu dedicated to it (at least on my mx892). The printer dialog box has a menu selector in the middle of the screen (I think it says "layout" by default). If you click on it, you will see the duplexing options at the bottom. Much more flexibility than the single checkbox available with "airprint". The interface is unusual (at least for me) but you can pre-set up many different configurations (Fast Duplex, Fine Single-sided, B&W, Photo, etc etc.)

How do I change default printer settings in Lion?

I just got a new MacBook Pro and after installing the correct drivers and setting up my printer, it now prints 2-sided by default. How do I change this default setting?
I'm using a MacBook Pro, OS X 10.7.4, printing over AirPort to a KonicaMinolta office machine. I had this same setup with my old MBP (OS X 10.6.8) with no problems whatsoever.

Many vendors have started releasing printer drivers that have been defaulted to two-sided (duplexed). I would assume that the printer driver you are using on 10.6 is an older version compared to that being used on Lion.
There are two possible actions. One is to create a Preset that has the driver set to single sided and use this preset when you don't want duplex. The other is to modify the PPD for the printer so that it is set to single sided by default.
Making a Preset is easy. Open a document and select to print. Make the changes in the print dialog to set single sided printing and then open the Presets menu and choose to save this change for this KM printer. Then whenever you print to the KM just ensure the Preset is set to whatever name you gave to the single sided setting.
As for modifying the PPD, this is done via the CUPS web page.
To access CUPS, open Safari and type
http://127.0.0.1:631/printers
This will open the CUPS Printer administration page and will show all the printers currently configured on the Mac. For the printer that you wish to change the defaults for, click its name in the Queue Name column.
Clicking the printer name will open the printer administration page for that printer. Here you need to click on the Administration drop menu and then select Set Default Options.
This will show a new page with four menu headings (links); Options Installed, General, Banners and Policies. Select General. Scroll down the list until you find an entry like "Finishing" or something similar that shows the single sided and two sided setting. Change this from 2 sided to 1 sided.
With the option selected you then need to scroll down the list to the bottom of the page where you will see the ‘Set Default Options’ button. Click this button and you will then be presented with an authentication window. Enter the account name and password that has been set as the admin for this Mac. And then press the Log In button. You will then see another page stating that the information change is completed.
Now you can open an application and select to print and then check the output is set to single sided.

How do I change a printer's IP address, !again! :(

O Great, Knowledgeable and Kind printer gurus,
I'm in a similar situation to Peter Minter's old archived thread at
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2188292?
... So I'm sorry to be the next confused person Sorry to be asking ask a question that has probably already been answered multiple times, in which case blush, and a pointer to the answer would be great.
I have a Linksys Ethernet switch into which I've plugged
1. RJ45 carrying signal to/from an Apple Airport Router's Ethernet LAN output plug (Router gets its input from my Cable Modem)
2. RJ45 carrying signal to/from Mac Mini
3. RJ45 carrying signal to/from Mac Al-PowerBook G4
4. RJ45 carrying signal to/from HP LaserJet 5M
1, 2, and 3 are networking just fine to one another and out to the Internet, and have been fine for months.
It's the LaserJet 5M that I've just gotten that I can't figure out how to configure so's I can print to it.
Via its test page output, the printer reports its current IP addr to be 0.0.0.0 , subnet mask NOT SPECIFIED, def gateway 0.0.0.0 , config by RARP/BOOTP
Via its network status panel, the mini reports:
IP: 10.0.1.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Router: 10.0.1.1
Via its network status panel, the PowerBook G4 reports:
IP: 10.0.1.4
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Router: 10.0.1.1
In slot 4 of the Linksys switch, I used to have an HP Print Server that made a network printer out of an old HP LaserWriter 4ML's parallel port. Damned if I remember how I changed the HP Print Server's IP addr., but I did somehow!
The newer HP LaserJet 5M has an RJ45 input so it's networkable directly, but I think I need to be able to reach into it (I think via Telnet from TERMINAL running in either of the two Macs) and change its IP addr to something in the local subnet. Maybe it "should" be 10.0.1.3.
However, try as I might, I cannot open a TELNET connection to 0.0.0.0 or any machine:

==============
So, from the AL-PbG4 (10.0.1.4) I can't OPEN connections to all the IP addresses I "should" be able to see. Hmm. I must be doing something wrong.
Even if I could contact the HP printer, how would I change its IP addr, and what should I change it to? 10.0.1.3 or maybe 10.0.1.200 ?
MacOSX 10.4.7, Printer Setup Utility Version 4.6(161.9)
Given that the HP printer's directly on the LAN thru the switch -- should I use "HP Jet Direct - Socket" protocol, or Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) or Line Printer Daemon (LPD) protocol? Simply baldly getting in there and assigning the addresses 10.0.1.3 or 10.0.1.200 on HP Jet Direct - Socket" protocol doesn't seem to produce a working queue. I also select Print Using HP LaserJet 5M. No soap.
Any hints? Should I d/l a better/higher functionality configuration tool from HP? I'm about Googled out on this, and what I think to be an exhaustive search in this HELP area doesn't give me the info I think I need. Wot am I doing wrong, pls? Any more info I can provide? Happy 2 do it. TIA for any cycles you can spare.

I appreciate the feedback VERY much, Kappy, and at the beginning of my most recent (and successful!) hacking session, I thought that you were helping me "fail forward" ... but it all turned out OK, thanx to you!
When I get the printout of the "MENU MAP" the HP MIO menu shows only
CFG NETWORK = NO
so with your welcome hint, I just found that if I go into the HP MIO menu and change NO to YES*, I can keep going... and I can even get to where I can change the TCP/IP addr!
As (I believe) befits an important setting area like CFG NETWORK, setting it to YES* holds only for ONE application. When you come back from READY status, HP MIO's CFG NETWORK is set back to NO.
But if I've just arrived and have set CFG NETWORK to YES* and keep going, I see choices like
NOVELL = OFF*/ON (I left that at OFF*, no Novell hereabouts)
DLC/LLC = OFF*/ON (not understanding what that is, I left it at OFF*)
TCP/IP = ON*/OFF (I can set it ON* and it will "stick" from entry-from-READY to future entry-from-READY -- like I've turned it ON and it stays on)
ETALK = ON/OFF*
Encouragingly next, I see
CONFIG TCP/IP = YES*/NO
BOOTP* = YES/NO*
Then I get to a place where I can enter
TCP BYTE 1 = 0*
and I can move that byte up until it reads
TCP BYTE 1 = 10*
and the same through the rest of the TCP BYTES:
TCP BYTE 2 = 0*
TCP BYTE 3 = 1*
TCP BYTE 4 = 3*
These settings persist from CONFIG TCP/IP to the next CONFIG TCP/IP session, so that's good...
Next in the menu options, I see
SM BYTE 1 = 0* which I assume means Subnet Mask, so I alter that to be the same as the other members of my LAN (correct me if these settings are wrong, please?)
SM BYTE 1 = 255*
SM BYTE 2 = 255*
SM BYTE 3 = 255*
SM BYTE 1 = 0*
These settings persist from CONFIG TCP/IP to the next CONFIG TCP/IP session, so that's also good...
Next the menu offers me
LG BYTE 1 = 0*
LG BYTE 2 = 0*
LG BYTE 3 = 0*
LG BYTE 4 = 0*
I have no idea whatever what LG means, so I didn't change that. Same for the next choice:
GW BYTE 1 = 0*
GW BYTE 2 = 0*
GW BYTE 3 = 0*
GW BYTE 4 = 0*
Finally, the CONFIG TCP/IP = YES* menu offers
TIMEOUT = 90*
and the possible values range from 0 through 3600. Having no idea whatever what this is, I left it alone.
When my printer's TCP/IP addr was set at 10.0.1.3 I could PING it successfully. When I changed its addr to 10.0.1.200 I could no longer PING 10.0.1.3, but could successfully PING 10.0.1.200 .
However, in neither case can I add a printer whose IP address is 10.0.1.200 or 10.0.1.3, whose queue-name I leave blank for the default queue, using IPP, and where I specify the HP Laserjet 5M device.
Sooooh close I wondered what my dain bramage was...
I next wondered whether it perchance had something to do with the LG or the GW 4-octet strings, which I could set to anything but which I've left 0.0.0.0 out of ignorance?
But then I got a brainstorm -- it seems as if what is built into this printer is like the JetDirect I used previously -- so when I changed from IPP to JetDirect SOCKET protocol, everything worked!
So a great big THANKS FOR THE CRUCIAL HINT!! goes to you, [B}Kappy!! :)
... might be nice to know what LG, GW, and TIMEOUT have to do with anything, but right now I'm a Happy Camper.
... and strangely enuf, the .PDF file I cite above has no occurrences of CFG, much less TCP. Foo upon all HP Documentation 'droids.
