How to configure printer to use bypass tray when printing legal paper and envelopes?

I have a new Phaser 3610. Tray 1 - contains Letter paperBypass Tray - Legal paper and sometimes envelopes How do I configure my printer to know when to use the bypass tray for legal paper when I that is what I want to print to from Excel?  In Excel, I have legal selected but it is still pulling the paper from tray 1 instead. I also print envelopes occasionally.  If I stick an envelopoe in the bypass tray, I want it to print from there like when using Word to create enveloples, instead it is pulling it from Tray 1. I have tried to adjust both settings on the Printer control panel and the Xerox printer software.  I have had no luck.

Hi burnsey23,
Thank you for using the Support Forum. Please take a look at the solution for using smaller paper in the bypass tray.  I know it says smaller but use the same steps for larger paper as well.  Also make sure that the orientation on Excel is set to the orientation that corresponds to the way the paper is loaded in the tray.  If this does not help please consider contacting your support centre for further assistance.

  • Printer stopped using Cyan ink when printing.

    My HP Office Jet Pro L7789 All-in-One all of a sudden quit pulling the Cyan color when printing in color. It was doing fine and then the next picture is only using Black, Magenta and yellow. I have run "clean printhead" 3 times, run calibrate linefeed and run allign printer twice, all to no avail. When you print out a "Print Quality Diagnostics Page" everything comes out fine except on the test pattern 2 it does not have the Cyan (BLUE) color at all.
    Any ideas?

    Hello grumpsjlk, and welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see you are experiencing ink issues.  I would like to try and assist. 
    I would recommend removing your cartridges and power resetting the printer. 
    I would also suggest utilizing this document on Fixing Ink Streaks, Faded Prints, and Other Common Print Quality Problems.
    If that doesn't resolve the issue, I would recommend contacting HP directly.  You can utilize this website to learn how to contact HP appropriately, based on your region: Contact HP Worldwide.

  • How to configure Firefox to use OpenVPN?

    summary: I'm running OpenVPN from a Debian client through a Debian jumpbox/server. After I [start the server, start the client] most IP-based applications (DNS, ping, ssh) seem to work from the client, but client's Firefox cannot connect to http://www.whatismyip.com/ (or any other URI). How to configure Firefox to use the VPN? or otherwise fix the problem? or further debug it?
    details:
    I have a laptop running debian_version==jessie/sid with Firefox version=33.0 which needs to access a compute cluster. The cluster formerly required only an SSL VPN (enabled by a Firefox plugin) to access, but now has several additional requirements, which I seek to satisfy by running the SSL VPN through a jumpbox running an OpenVPN server. The jumpbox is running a "vanilla" Debian 7.7.
    I have been using the laptop successfully for a few years without network problems. Currently I have the laptop connected by wire directly to an ISP-supplied modem/router. With `openvpn` NOT running on the laptop, I see:
    * `ifconfig` shows no entry='tun0' (just "the usual" entries for 'eth0', 'lo', 'wlan0'), and shows the expected client IP# bound to 'eth0'.
    * I can `ping` my jumpbox/server using its real IP#, but cannot `ping 10.8.0.1`
    * I can `ssh` to my jumpbox/server using its real IP#, but cannot `ssh 10.8.0.1`
    * `nslookup www.whatismyip.com` gives correct results
    * browsing to http://www.whatismyip.com/ shows my client's IP# (as also shown in `ifconfig`)
    Both my client/laptop and server/jumpbox setups are quite generic OpenVPN-wise, and are almost exactly as described on the Debian wiki

    I then see the following on my client:
    * `ifconfig` shows a new entry=`tun0`, which looks correct
    * I can `ping` the server using either its real IP# or `10.8.0.1`
    * I can `ssh` to the server using either its real IP# or `10.8.0.1`
    * `nslookup www.whatismyip.com` gives correct results
    ... but I get no connection if I open a new instance of Firefox and browse to http://www.whatismyip.com/ :-( "Looking up www.whatismyip.com..." succeeds quickly but the status line continues to display "Connecting to www.whatismyip.com..." until the attempt times out. I also get the same behavior (connection timeout) if I open a new instance of Chrome, or if I browse to http://www.whatismyip.com/ with a Firefox opened prior to starting OpenVPN. FWIW I get the same behavior browsing to any URI, including (e.g.) Google.
    This is a major problem for me! For the SSL VPN to work, I need to start a Firefox and run it (since the SSL VPN's vendor only supports it on Linux via a Firefox plugin) to access a particular remote-access website. Furthermore I need the SSL VPN to run through the jumpbox/OpenVPN. (Don't ask, it's a long, sad story ...)
    Is there something I must do to configure Firefox to use the VPN? Or is there some other way to fix this?
    Alternatively, what should I do to further debug the problem? It just seems odd to me that the other services work (e.g., `nslookup`, `ssh`) but Firefox does not. That being said, both Firefox and Chrome fail in this usecase, so the problem might be generic to web browsers.
    your assistance is appreciated, Tom Roche <[email protected]>

    You're kidding. You have to go through that rigamarole just to put your bookmarks on your own server? Where's the simple FTP option?
    Also, the above-linked article has a broken link. The link to the weaveserver (which is what you have to set up on your own server) is no good, and there is no obvious replacement. There are plenty of Weave-related repositories here:

    but it's not clear what you need.

  • How to configure sendmail to use multiple LDAP servers ?

    Hi everybody!
    I have a sendmail running on Solaris 10 and a LDAP server(192.168.1.9) also running Solaris 10 OS. I have configured the sendmail the following way:
    bash-3.00# ldapclient list
    NS_LDAP_FILE_VERSION= 2.0
    NS_LDAP_BINDDN= cn=proxyagent,ou=profile,dc=email,dc=reso,dc=ru
    NS_LDAP_BINDPASSWD= {NS1}*********************
    NS_LDAP_SERVERS= 192.168.1.9
    NS_LDAP_SEARCH_BASEDN= dc=email,dc=domain,dc=ru
    NS_LDAP_AUTH= simple
    NS_LDAP_SEARCH_REF= FALSE
    NS_LDAP_SEARCH_SCOPE= sub
    NS_LDAP_SEARCH_TIME= 30
    NS_LDAP_CACHETTL= 43200
    NS_LDAP_PROFILE= default
    NS_LDAP_CREDENTIAL_LEVEL= proxy
    NS_LDAP_BIND_TIME= 10
    I also have another LDAP server (IP 192.168.1.10). It is configured as a replicant of the 192.168.1.9 LDAP server.
    The question is how can i configure sendmail to use both LDAP servers ?
    The man pages explain how to configure ldapclient to use ONE server and what if want to use two or more? All the settings and the profiles the same.
    Thanks in advance =))

    Hi!
    To add LDAP servers to the Solaris ldapclient, you might use the ldapclient command:
    ldapclient manual -v -a defaultServerList="servera.yourdomain.com serverb.yourdomain.com"
    But this is only failover, AFAIK the Solaris ldapclient does not perform loadbalancing by itself.
    But I am not sure about your sendmail programm. Normally, sendmail has its own configuration
    and can be configured to use LDAP e.g. for aliases etc.
    Regards!

  • How to configure sap to use gmail as smtp server?

    Hi experts,
    I need to know how to configure gmail as my smtp server. In the scot transaction I don't see anywhere where to specify whether it is a ssh connection, ports for secure smtp, username, password.
    Does anyone know how to configure sap to use gmail as the smtp server?
    I've seen some similar threads about this, but they are of no help. Although they are classified as answered, in most cases the reason they are answered is because the person who made the query dropped the cause trying to make it work. I'd like to know for sure is this is possible or not.

    Hi Camilo,
    You can't set up gmail as your smtp server to handle this. gmail is an email server which generally are based on POP protocol. now for SAP to send mail to gmail, you would need one SMTP capable server which can relay those message received from SAP to configured email address.
    As of WAS 6.10 SAP kernel supports SMTP without more components. i.e e-mails can be sent (or received) from the SAP system to each SMTP-compatible mail server. see SAP note 455140 for more details.
    Hope this clarifies your doubt.

  • How can I change the fonts in "contacts" when printing mail labels

    How can I change the fonts in "contacts" when printing mail labels ? I used to be able to do this but in Mavericks this ability seems to have gone away. Am I missing something ?

    Actually in my case it doesn't work. I used to be able to pull up the font window with it but the button merely flickers when I click it. The image selection button and font color both are functional. WEIRD. I don't think this is a Mavericks issue as I recall having it come up with one of my user profiles before installing. Now I can't make it happen with either of my user profiles.
    I don't seem to have printing issues in other applications. And I recently reset the fonts in a futile attempt to correct this.
    I may post a new topic in Mail Contacts and Calendar if there is no response here after a bit.

  • How to prevent Oracle from using an index when joining two tables ...

    How to prevent Oracle from using an index when joining two tables to get an inline view which is used in an update statement?
    O.K. I think I have to explain what I mean:
    When joining two tables which have many entries sometimes it es better not to use an index on the column used as join criteria.
    I have two tables: table A and table B.
    Table A has 4.000.000 entries and table B has 700.000 entries.
    I have a join of both tables with a numeric column as join criteria.
    There is an index on this column in table A.
    So I instead of
      where (A.col = B.col)I want to use
      where (A.col+0 = B.col)in order to prevent Oracle from using the index.
    When I use the join in a select statement it works.
    But when I use the join as inline view in an update statement I get the error ORA-01779.
    When I remove the "+0" the update statement works. (The column col is unique in table B).
    Any ideas why this happens?
    Thank you very much in advance for any help.
    Regards Hartmut

    I think you should post an properly formatted explain plan output using DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY including the "Predicate Information" section below the plan to provide more details regarding your query resp. update statement. Please use the \[code\] and \[code\] tags to enhance readability of the output provided:
    In SQL*Plus:
    SET LINESIZE 130
    EXPLAIN PLAN FOR <your statement>;
    SELECT * FROM TABLE(DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY);Usually if you're using the CBO (cost based optimizer) and have reasonable statistics gathered on the database objects used the optimizer should be able to determine if it is better to use the existing index or not.
    Things look different if you don't have statistics, you have outdated/wrong statistics or deliberately still use the RBO (rule based optimizer). In this case you would have to use other means to prevent the index usage, the most obvious would be the already mentioned NO_INDEX or FULL hint.
    But I strongly recommend to check in first place why the optimizer apparently seems to choose an inappropriate index access path.

  • My Macbook pro OS 10.10.2 suddenly will not communicate with my Cannon MX890 printer.  I reset all printers and now I cannot seem to add a printer by using the Add a printer function.  Ideas?

    My Macbook pro OS 10.10.2 suddenly will not communicate with my Cannon MX890 printer.  I reset all printers and now I cannot seem to add a printer by using the Add a printer function.  Ideas?

    The appearance of the printer in the Default view of the Add printer window relies on a protocol called Bonjour. There have been quite a few users who upgraded to Yosemite only to find that their wifi printer is no longer visible. Until Apple resolves this issue you can add your printer using the LPD protocol. To do so you will need to determine the IP address being used by the MX890. This can be done via the touch panel under Device Settings > Network Settings.
    Once you learn the IP address then on the Mac you can click to add the printer and select the IP icon. Here you can enter the IP address, set the Protocol to Line Printer Deamon and leave the Queue field blank. Then change the name to Canon MX890 and in the Use menu, browse for the Canon MX890 series driver. Then click Add to complete the printer creation.

    https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/feedback/details/1134168/ie9-to-ie11-print-templates-print-preview-window-closes-unexpectly-when-printing-document, but I would like some more visibility of the issue as my customers thought my application was closing when
    they printed a document.  I also don't know if an issue in Connect gets any priority support via MSDN, but this forum does.
    This looks to me like a problem in the IE Print Templates startDoc API call, but if there is a more appropriate forum to raise this issue in please let me know.
    In the application where I use print templates, the window closing is not in it self a problem because the Javascript that is calling startDoc also closes the Print Preview window when the print is finished.
    The fact that the application looses focus and can be hidden by the windows of other applications when the Print Preview window is closed by startDoc is the issue noticed by our customers, so I need a fix preferably, or a work around at a pinch.
    Details of the issue reproduced below.
    When using IE Print Templates, the startDoc function is causing the print preview window to close.  This behaviour started with IE9, and is still present with IE11.
    When an application is using print templates (see
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa753279(v=vs.85).aspx) for print functionality, this has the effect of causing the application to become hidden by any other application window once printing from the print preview window has started.  It is
    actually this behaviour that started me looking at this issue as the users thought the hosting application had closed.
    Print Templates are not accessible by using IE as a web browser, but only when using the WebBrowser Control to embed IE in an application.  The reference for this feature is available from this url:https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa753279(v=vs.85).aspx
    and a sample Microsoft application that demonstrates the use of Print Templates can be used to demonstrate the problem (required for the reproduction steps).  The application is available via this article and searching for "download spiffy".
    Steps to reproduce the problem:
    To see the full effect of the issue, first ensure there is a window from another application (like Windows Explorer) that will cover the sample applications window if brought to the foreground (making the Windows Explorer window full screen works).
    Start the sample application (and ensure that the full screen Window Explorer is the next application to activate).
    Then in the drop down box in the top right corner of the UI select Template8.htm.
    Click the Print Preview button that is just below the drop down box (this will open a new Print Preview window).
    In the new window click the Print… button (this will open a Print dialog).
    Click the Print button at the bottom of the Print dialog.
    The Print dialog closes (expected) and then the Print Preview window also closes (not expected), however the document is still printed successfully.
    When the Print Preview windows is closed unexpectedly, the Windows Explorer window is brought to the foreground (obscuring the sample applications window).
    If you reselect the sample application and click the Print Preview button again, the Print Preview dialog is not displayed unless you restart the application (this looks to be a symptom of the same issue, not a separate problem).
    To see that the Print Preview window appears to be closed by the startDoc call, use the resource editor in Visual Studio (the exe can be opened directly by File | Open | File…) to edit the HTML resource "TEMPLATE8.HTM" (I found I needed to delete
    it and add it back in for the change to stick), find the startDoc call and add two alerts, one on the line before and one on the line after.  When IE is accessing the template, it is being done using the name of the executable (so do not rename the modified
    version of printtemplates.exe, make the changes to a copy in a different directory if you don't want to change the original).  Start the modified version of the application and follow the same steps as in the reproduction.  This time, after clicking
    the Print button in the Print dialog, the dialog will close, the first alert will pop up, then the Print Preview window will close, then
    the second alert will pop up.
    Thank you,
    Warren.

    Hi Shu,
    I have noticed that the print templates API is listed as part of the Legacy APIs. 
    Is this just because it hasn't changed or is not new?  Or does this mean that it is no longer maintained and may be removed (or at least deprecated) at some point in the future? 
    It would good to know if we should start planning for the implementation of a different method of printing.
    I understand that the sample application is no longer maintained, but I also think that the Print Template API that it uses has not changed, and so should still work (and it does mostly).
    If the Print Preview window was being closed as a result of using the Print dialog (and if it had behaved the same way with IE8) I would be willing to go with the by design argument.  
    I have found that the Print Preview window is not closed until startDoc is called, and it closes before control is returned from the startDoc function. 
    Just as part of investigating and try to find a workaround, if I call window.close(), any alert calls made no longer display the alert window after the close call. 
    Alert still functions after startDoc has closed the window however. 
    The is not the sort of consistent behaviour I would expect from something that is by design. 
    Also while investigating, I found that calling startDoc after calling window.close() results in an exception with the error code -2147467259 (0x80004005), this is probably quite normal and expected, but does indicate that the Web Browser Control should
    not be closed till after printing.
    I had found that old thread, and I had concluded it was the same issue, but it was also aimed at different aspect of the problem (which I see in the sample application, but not my application). 
    The visible issue I have is that my users think the application has been closed because after clicking print (on the Print dialog) the application gets hidden by other windows from other applications. 
    This aspect affects the sample in the same manner and so it was a convenient way to demonstrate the problem.
    If IE connect do not look at this issue any time soon, do I have any other avenues to resolve this issue?
    Thank you,
    Warren.

  • Printer Preferences is not available when printing PDF

    Printer Preferences is not available when printing PDF
    I have a PSC 1315 printer I have been using for several years on a system with Windows XP without any problem.  After
    purchasing an HP Pavilion 500 with Windows 8.1 Pro, I migrated my printer to the new computer.  I was disallowed to use the
    original driver, and was directed to download the latest driver and software for this printer from an HP website.  At
    first, things seemed ok, until I ran across several issues, one of which is this one.
    Whenever I try printing a PDF file, Windows 8 does not let me see printer preferences.  My work around is to go into
    printer properties and save changes as default, then I can print PDF files.  What happened to the preferences window?  It
    appears I have lost functionality with the upgrade.
    Is this a known problem, and what's the solution?
