HP 1200 not printing pdfs/uses default fonts in Word docs

Happy Birthday USA!
Last week I loaded 10.4.10 to Mac mini and eversince I have not been able to print pdfs from Adobe Reader or print desired fonts from Word.
(I have overcome default to US letter problem in Word)
I have loaded latest drivers from HP site/ installed original drivers from HP disk but these appear to be for OSX rather than 10.4.10.
Any suggestions?

First of all I would try running Repair Disk Permissions. This can help with printing issues, especially after updates.
If you are able to print the same pdf's from Preview that you cannot from Acrobat, then you could try deleting its plist with it closed. If that doesn't help then try deleting and reinstalling Reader.
Re Word, are you getting Courier substitution for the fonts that are not printing or is the line blank where the text should be?

My Office Print Pro 8600 Plus will not print pdf files sent to it from an iPad using ePrint.

My Office Print Pro 8600 Plus will not print pdf files sent to it from an iPad using ePrint. I just get an error message when I go to the HP Eprint centre. It does print the cover e-mail but nothing else. The attachment is not secure as far as I can see. I have tried sending an attachment from my Mac and that worked fine.
This question was solved.

Hello krnkln3.
Are you trying to send the PDF as an attachment in an e-mail sent to the ePrint e-mail address of the printer or are you trying to print using the ePrint app?
Try sending the same PDF document to the printer's ePrint e-mail address and let us know if that works. If this works but using the ePrint app is not working, maybe the ePrint app is not working fine with this PDF document (it could be due to it's size or something else). Remember that you can always use the e-mail ePrint address of the printer to send PDF documents as the processing is happening at the HP servers and not in your iPad as when you try to send it using the ePrint app.

Can not print PDF file at all with Windows Vista

I have Acrobat Reader 9.3.2. I am working off of Windows Vista on my laptop to a network wireless printer (Brother MFC 9440). I am unable to print pdf files. About a week ago, we had problems with our printer printing anything. I had to uninstall it and reinstalled it and it now works fine except the pdf files. I have had no problems printing any other files on any other programs but this one. I am unsure what specific "updates" I ran while trying to figure out printers issue. When in Reader, everything seems normal. When I hit print, the printer box pops up as normal and then I hit ok, my printer icon at bottom pops up for about 5 secs and nothing happens. I know that I am connected to printer due to all other programs can print. I do not have access to another printer to see if pdf will print on another printer, but do know that the other two computers used in this office (mac laptop and mac desktop) both are able to print pdf files to this printer without a problem. I have gone thru all the other help steps to try to resolve the situation: it still will not print when I hit "print as image", made sure that my printer is marked as network and is default printer, made sure to check that I have all upgrades, etc. I am not getting any error message, so am unsure what is wrong. It just will not print. Is there anyone that could give me some suggestions that I have not tried? I would REALLY appreciate it! Thanks!

Another user experience exactly the same issue with vista and printing from Adobe reader.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/642000?tstart=1 Its copied below as a reference.
The problem was on my Auntys PC, and yes i did updated Adobe Reader to v9.3.2 and still the same issue underlned below.
My Aunty lives 70 miles away so will not be trying anything else.
The printer works fine with every other application only Adobe Reader files will print.

IP8720 will not print PDF files

My iP8720 will not print PDF files. It doesn't matter whether the file was created in Acrobat 8 Pro, Word, WordPerfect. It doesn't matter if the PDF contains images or just text. It does print files from Word and WordPerfect, as well as Photoshop, etc. PDFs seem to be the only problem. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate. Any help woud be appreciated.
Solved!

Hi clarowl,
Do you receive an error when trying to print the PDF files, or does the printer give no error and just not even attempt to print?

HP laserjet 1536dnf will not print pdf's

My laser jet 1536dnf will not print pdfs. Prints everything else. I have adobe acrobat 9. I have unistalled the driver/software for the printer and reinstalled. Still not fixed. When I pull up the pdf and select print, then hit ok, nothing happens. However, I can print pdfs to the other printer connected to my computer. This logically brings the conclusion that the issue is with the laser jet driver. Does anyone have a clue as to how to fix this?

Hi , I see that you are having issues printing PDF documents, just from the Laserjet M1536dnf printer. I will certainly do my best to help you. Try printing a page from the printer's User Guide, to see if you have the same results. LASERJET PRO M1530.Let me know the results. Print the PDF as an image: Open the original PDF file, if necessary.Click File, and then click Print, or click the Print icon. The Print window opens.Click Advanced. The Advanced Print Setup window opens.Select the Print As Image checkbox, change any other settings as desired, and then click OK.On the Print window, click OK again to begin printing.Run the Adobe updates. Product updates. If you appreciate my efforts, please click the 'Thumbs up' button below. If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know. Thank You.

HP 7780 All in One Printer will not print PDF files!!!

I have an HP 7780 All in One printer setup as a network printer. It will copy, scan, and print everything except PDF files. Why will it not print PDF files? You send a PDF file to print. The printer spins up like its about to start printing and then nothing. No error message or nothing. Nothing even shows up in the print queue as waiting to print.

Happy Monday edam. Green is actually the result of two or more color mixed together. Lets try printing a self test report:
Make sure the All-in-One is on and loaded with unused, plain, white paper.
Press Setup . The Setup Menu appears.
Press the down arrow button to select Tools , and then press OK .
Select Self-test Report , and press OK . The self-test report prints.
Let me know the results of the self test. Are all the colors present on the self test or are you missing specific colors?
Thanks!

HPOfficejet Pro 8600 does not print the page as shown in WORD. I am using win 7, 32-bit OS. How do I fix this?

Sounds like the table is to large to fit on a single page. Have you tried using the "Shrink to Page" option in the Print Preview? Depending on your version of Word, my attached picture may not be 100% similar but it should be enough to give you an idea. Here is the option inside the print preview menu:

The server i have to use for my pay is Explorer( i told them that this would have conflicting things on my computer, they said no i wont.( i can get it just can not print it?)

Hi there morinallen,
Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here to ensure there are no software conflicts:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.
Best of Luck!

Can Java be used to parse Microsoft Word(.doc) files?

Hi guys ,
I want to know whether Java can be used to parse Microsoft Word(.doc) files for searching a string or for checking for grammatical errors, etc
Thanks in advance.
Avichal

Hey man, anything and every thing can be done these days.
About ur question doc is like all other normal text files with some extra features and extra character supports and other stuffs.
If u neglect those parts and if u consider it to be a normal text file then its a much simpler job.
Here is a code that searches for the key word in all the doc files, txt files, pdf files and html files
in the mentioned folder and sub folders. Any way its a servlet u can change it to a normal program.
It first check the file to know whether they are doc, pdf, html or txt files if yes then it will read the file and
store the contents in the vector and parse the vector for the search string and display the result.
Along with the result the below code will also display the time taken and the number of search string found in the document
