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 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 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.

No longer able to select a Printer in Print Dialog Box - Windows 7 with CS

SInce installing Windows 7 I can no longer select a printer in the Page Setup Dialog Box. Instead it always defaults to the default printer. Is there a fix for this?

You assume too much. I am not mucking around with the iPhoto Library.
Here is an example of my problem:
Open Address Book
Select a Contact
Click Edit
Double Click the Photo icon
A dialog appears for me to "Choose" a photo
Click Choose...
Another dialog appears for me to browse to the photo that I would like to attach to that conract
I select my username under "Favorites", then expand the "Pictures" folder
When I click on iPhoto Library, I am no longer able to expand it and presented with the photos, events, faces, albums within it, but only get an icon for the iPhoto Library instead.
This is part of the way a Mac works, and is now broken. It exhibits this in Address Book and any other program, and it was working fine until I installed PSE 10.

How to open print dialog from web dynpro abap application

Hi experts,
I have a web dynpro application with several views and onone of the view there is a button that should open print dialog with printers list and all other options (standard print dialog we see in windows). I did reserach on SDN and came to now that this is a limitation of web dynpro abap. I did find some code also but unfortunately our current version of ABAP(7.0) do not support the code I found. I am not able to find any proper solution for this. Could someone please let me know how I can open a print dialog by clicking on a button in web dynpro abap? Any sample code or any information would be greatky appreciated.
Thanks.

Sorry for late reply i was not at work
I have a default set excel is still throwing error. Interestingly winword , powerpoint and publisher are working fine. I am able to print from all office applications except Excel.
Probably excel behaves differently from other office applications.
Probably it is a bug in excel
Workaround : Log on to a system once using newly created account then runas excel using this account then print works fine.
It means something in user profile should be configure to run excel print operation. Could you please somebody help what I need to configure in user profile that makes print operation success?

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?

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.

I can't help with the scan/print problem. You seem to have done everything I would try.
I don't know if maybe using a registry cleaner would help.

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.

How does the "Manually Set EV"dialog box in "Merge to HDR Pro" work?

What is the "Manually Set EV"dialog box in "Merge to HDR Pro" for?
Do these values affect the HDR results?
Since the source images are chosen in the first dialog of "Merge to HDR Pro"
why do we need to set EV manually here?
Besides, after I tried different values to compare the results
the "Manually Set EV"dialog box has disappeared how can I get it back?
THANKS

If the files you are merging don't have metadata giving their exposure values (time, aperture, ISO), then MergeToHDR prompts you for the relative exposure values.
If your files have the metadata, then there is no need to enter the values manually.

Where do I find the printer dialog box to change the setting that asks me to save a file before printing

Where do I find the printer dialog box to change the setting that asks me to save a file before printing

Hi Sara,
The problem is every time I try to copy a page from a website or attachment sent to me or anything that I don't create, the dialog box says I have to save it before I can print -- there are no other options on the dialog box. Very frustrating -- one of the girls in my office is having the same problem and we can't find a way around it.
Hope you can help
Thanks

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,

Hi
You can do the following way.
data : lv_pri_params     like pri_params,
          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
             sap cover page          lv_pri_params-prsap
             cover page              lv_pri_params-prbig
             without spool dynpro
