How to access Print Dialog boxe's "Pages" property

Hi,
I am using the following line to populate the Print dialog box.
xfa.host.print(1, "0", (xfa.host.numPages-1).toString(), 0, 1, 0, 0, 0)
Is there any way that I can access Pages option using JavaScript with Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 where I can show the page range to print?
I want to print 3 copies of 1st Page and then the one copy of full PDF. So in the Pages option of Print dialog box I want to display 1,1,1,1-9. Is there any way to accomplish this programmatically?
Or is there any better way to print 3 copies of 1st page and then 1 copy of whole pdf?
Thanks.

How to suppress print dialog box from popping up under a condition

Greetings...
There may be a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do, so I'm open to outside-the-box suggestions.
I have a pretty simple page which lists a set of statuses and descriptions of each. The user can edit these status flags and their descriptions on the page as well. When I view the page in "printer friendly" mode, I see a nice simple report of what the statuses are and their descriptions. Everything works great so far.
In our work request system built in ApEx, there's a page where someone can view the details of a work request, including the current status. When someone clicks on the help of that item, what I'd love to do is simple show the "printer friendly" version the status page mentioned above in a pop up window. My problem is that the print dialog box automatically shows up when a page is displayed in "printer friendly" mode and I do not want this to happen in this case.
I see the javascript code in the Printer Friendly page template which causes the print dialog box to show up automatically, but I don't want to remove it in the template just for this one case. This would suppress the print dialog box on all "printer friendly" page views and the users are used to it showing up when they ask to print the page.
I guess I could create a custom request to pass to the master status page which would pretty much do everything that the "printer friendly" mode is doing, but that seems like a lot of work when I'm so close to using something that is built in.
Am I not seeing some simple other way of doing it or perhaps asking too much? Any suggestions?
Shane.

Hi,
I think you have to call the FM GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS and pass NO_DIALOG = 'X'.
Something like:
CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
    EXPORTING
      no_dialog      = 'X'
    IMPORTING
      out_parameters = ls_params
      valid          = lv_valid
    EXCEPTIONS
      OTHERS         = 1.
NEW-PAGE PRINT ON PARAMETERS ls_params NO DIALOG.
* Display Table
lr_table->display( ).
add: Spool numbers can be found in TSP01 or in system field SY-SPONO available in the submitting program...
Hope it helps,
Kr,
m.

How to set print dialog box to sync with applications

Dear all
I am using different applications, such as photoshop, lightroom, etc. All these applications have their propper print dialog box with enhanced settings.
BUT
after hitting the print button, my computer takes me always to the mac print dialog box, where again I can set different things: I can set paper quality, paper format, the colors...
to me it seems that the settings I have chosen in the application print dialog box are getting erased by this second set of (OS X) print-settings.
WHY DO I NEED TO GO THROUGH TWO PRINT DIALOG BOXES?
Can I omit the OS X print dialog?
Or am I missing something?
many thanks for your help,
Hynek

Thank you for this reply.
I will work around it with presets.
but just to understand this: *which dialog box is the one setting the printer* (when for example using photoshop)? is it the first dialog box, i.e. photoshop print dialog box - or is it the osX print dialog box?
if it is the second, I can skip the photoshop-one... ?
or do I need to experiment with a combination of both?
greetings,
Hynek
p.s. I know, it is a rather late reply. But we became parents 7 months ago, and time at the moment just flies by...

How to restore Print Dialog Box file in Leopard?

Does anybody know the location of the Print Dialog file in Leopard 10.5.3? Mine is gone corrupted!
Many thanks!

It sounds like you'll need to do a reinstall of the system software,

Current View option in the Print dialog box

I have a PDF file, approximately 55 pages that is comrpised of 50+ .jpg images that were combined into a single PDF file. The images are various size screenshots from Facebook.
I need to be able to print the entire file at 75% magnification in order for every page to be readable. Only way in Adobe’s print dialog box that I can find to do so is select one page at a time, select “Current View” and then print.
When "All" is selected under Print Range in the Print Dialog box, the pages print at different magnifications, most below 10% and unreadable.
Is there a way to get the entire document to print in the “Current View” setting or at a specified magnification?
I’m using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

duh...
Figured out I had to tweak it in the "copies and Pages"

Pages button in printer dialog box is deactivating while taking print ?

Hello exports,
while taking print abap reports (developed using smartforms) pages buttoon (from- to) in printer dialog box
is by default is deactivating .How to activate this button ? who will do this one (Abaper or basis guy).
pls help me in this.

Hi,
So, as you see a field "from ... to ...", I think you are talking about the "background print parameters" dialog (this is not the smart forms print dialog, which contains field "page selection").
I don't understand. "Pages from ... to ..." is always displayed, and the user can enter them manually. Do you want to enter pages programmatically?
What is your code or the steps to display this dialog? Is it fully standard or do you use GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS programmatically?

SUBMIT command; for print dialog box-how to pass parameter here?

Hi Gurus,
I am calling a report from another report. Inside report_2 i am using,
When i execute report2, i get a PRINT DIALOG BOX
Here i need to enter the output device name. and again excute.
I am not able to automate this in my program. Could you suggest?
Through F1 help, i found the screen_field name(of the output device parameter) to be 'SFPOUTPAR-DEST'
and i enter default output device 'PDEST'
where do i give this?
and also, after this, i need to do a 'Print Preview' action and see if file is opening up.
Can i automate these actions?
I am using:
rspar_line-selname = 'SFPOUTPAR-DEST'. // the output device parameter name
rspar_line-kind = 'S'.
rspar_line-sign = 'I'.
rspar_line-option = 'EQ'.
rspar_line-low = 'PDEST'. // PDEST is the default value i want to pass
APPEND rspar_line TO rspar_tab.
Then i do, (inside report 2....)
SUBMIT report_1
WITH SELECTION-TABLE rspar_tab
AND RETURN.
Its not working... i just get the print dialog box(without values being defaulted)
How do i proceed?
Thanks,
Rashmi

Hi
You can do the following way.

          lv_user_name      type char16,
          lv_user_name0     like tbtcjob-authcknam.
lv_user_name = sy-uname.
lv_user_name0 = sy-uname.
call function 'LOAD_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
       exporting
            key            = lv_user_name
       importing
            out_parameters = lv_pri_params
       exceptions
            error_occured = 1
            others         = 2.
if sy-subrc <> 0 or lv_pri_params-pdest is initial.
    select single padest into lv_pri_params-pdest from tsp03.
endif.
submit report1
    with selection-table rspar_tab
             destination             lv_pri_params-pdest
             copies                  lv_pri_params-prcop
             list name               lv_pri_params-plist
             immediately             space
             keep in spool           'X'
             new list identification 'X'
             line-count              lv_pri_params-linct
             line-size               lv_pri_params-linsz

After the latest two updates, whenever Firefox starts, the print dialog box appears automatically. Why, and how do I stop this?

Not much else to add. The print dialog box just opens every time Firefox is started or restarted.

Check the Home page setting:
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Hello,
Thanks for response. I am not asking about (Print Screen List) properties.
After (Print Screen List), one more Pop ups screen will come. On that screen one Properties is there. I am asking about that.

Print Dialog box wont appear when "Print Pages" from Bookmarks Window

When I use the "print pages" option from the Bookmarks window the pages are sent directly to the default printer with the default settings. How do I get the print dialog window to appear if I select "print pages" from the Bookmarks window so that I may modify the print settings?

I wasn't aware that you could get the print dialog box to appear after dragging a supported file to the alias, regardless of where it resided. I've never seen this happen on 10.4.x or 10.3.9 so I tested the Option key and found it didn't force the dialog box to appear either. Tried a few others keys also but no luck in getting the box to appear.
Re the fierycupsfilter issue. EFI have released an updater that replaces the system-provided version and therefore stops the need to modify the ppd.

Since I starting using my MacMini (2011 version) I have not been able to print double sided from my HP Photosmart plus - there is no option for this in the Printer dialog box as there was in the similar dialog box on my PC. How do I set up this option?

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

How can I get print dialog box to show accurately?

My print dialog box shows the image too large. If I go to print it prints correctly. I have tried updating drivers and reinstalling Illustrator. It has been happening since new update to CC.

When viewing the print settings, in the Summary List, it shows the Paper width as 9 inches rather than 8.5.
The Navigator window shows (in my test file) 4 plus signs across the top of an 8.5 by 11 inch page.
The Print Preview in the Print Dialog shows only 3. My printer is set to standard 8.5 by 11 page size.
Everything prints perfectly in CS6 when I bring the file in.

CS3 page setup: in print dialog box???

I am confused about the page setup in CS3. Coming from Illustr. 10 if I started a drawing in landscape mode and wanted to change into portrait mode I had to change the document and page setup boxes. Now in CS3 there is only a document setup, the page setup is in the print dialog box. Can someone share some light on this?
Thanks.
Ulrich

I think the process is now as it always should have been. It was crazy always having to go to two different dialog boxes just to change one setting. The thinking here is that Illustrator is now smart enough to know to automatically adjust the Page Setup settings for you -- if you rotate the document from Landscape to Portrait for example, AI should be able to figure out on its own that you want it to print that was as well.
The main point here is that Page Setup options aren't needed much anymore -- most of the options are handled directly within Illustrator's Print dialog (and can hence be saved in Print Presets, etc).
