HP DESIGNJET will not print accurate sizes from Illustrator CC

Running Macbook Pro to HP DSIGNJET 500C.     Layout artboard 24x24 with 20"x20" 1" grid. Print with no scaling . Squares about 15/16"  I adjust artboard grid to be close to right then reprint and it will vary about a 1/16" over 18".   I can live with that.    Then I create a new artboard by coping the corrected one and it puts both of them out of scale.   Any help? ? ?

upandrunning,
I believe it may be because the printer (driver) is non PostScript.
What happens if you create a PDFand print from Adobe Acrobat or Reader?

  • My HP will not print a photo from the computer file. everything else works fine. The memory slot

    My hp office jet pro L7680 suddenly will not print a photo from the computer.  shows in the printer que.  Memory slot light blinks.  Everything else works fine.  N.

    Something to chek, open a document, press CMMAND P, this will bring up the print screen, you can click on the arrow to expand the options
    Then click on the presets and make sure that the preset you want is selected.
    From the preset drop menu you can select Plain paper best or fast draft, which should then be color.
    Hope this helps

  • F2480 will not print A4 size pictures,

    My F2480 will not print A4 size pictures (210 x 295mm) the largest it will print is 200 x 265 mm Help needed please

    Hi,
    I assume you are using a Photo Paper, Please clarify if I am wrong.
    Be aware that while the Maximum size for plain paper is 210 x 297mm,
    The largest supported Photo Paper is 203.2 x 254 mm, as you may find listed within the product specification's Paper Types and Sizes section:

  • HP 1055 cm Plus Plotter will not print Test Page from any port - Vista 64

    Hello,
    Have a brand new computer with the Vista 64 bit platform and an HP 1055 cm Plus Plotter.  I have downloaded the software and drivers from the web, and got it to recognize the plotter.  With the plotter as the default, it will not print a test page from any of the ports.  I have tried all of the ports multiple times.  I must have the wrong driver, or is there another problem I am missing? 
    Please help, and help quickly, my idiotic boss keeps hounding me and making the most ridiculous suggestions "try turning it on and off again" "Why do you even need a driver, just print it", etc. etc.  HELP!

  • HP Envy 5660 Will Not Print in Color from Desktop

    I have a new Envy 5660  e all in one printer. Prints in color from my I phone and I pad but will only print in black from desktop running OSX 10.6.8.  No error messages just will not print color from my Mac. 

    Hello @zeitman , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you're having issues printing color. I would like to try and assist.
    Due to system limitations, the printer requires a minimum of 10.7 to be installed.  You can, however, download and install the Mac print software relating to HP.  This should allow you to have functionality:
    HP Printer Drivers v3.0 for OS X
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.5.0 will not print SRA3 size paper

    I created an Adobe InDesign file 320x450mm (SRA3) and saved it as a a High Quality PDF. However, when I print from Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 with SRA3 paper size settings, it defaults to A4 and the printer will not register the SRA3 paper size request. The tech from Canon updated the printer driver which increased print dialog options such as Paper Handling, Paper Source etc. (which I didn't have before) and spent over an hour running tests. We both agreed there was a software issue since there were not issues from other software:
    I can print SRA3 files from InDesign and Microsoft Word, but not Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    This is an ongoing problem since I often receive artwork in PDF format at this size.
    My workaround is to place the PDF into InDesign, line up the crops by eye and print to SRA3 paper which works fine until I need to do a double sided print which becomes slightly innacurate and often time consuming.
    Canon printer driver specs:
    V2.0
    iR-ADV C5045/5051 PS (UK)

    What happens if you select other paper sizes? Also ensure that 'choose paper source by PDF page size' is not checked at your print dialog.
    Kindly let us know your results and if possible please forward us your pdf at [email protected]
    Looking forward to help you out.
    Thanks

  • Epson R2880 - Will not print - paper sizes

    I am having major problems with trying to print to a R2880. I have recently purchased it and have had problems with printing to it from the beginning. Sometimes it works but mostly it doesn't.
    The Epson driver is 6.2 which is the latest. I am running Leopard. Do not want to upgrade to SL cause what I read shows FCS2 does not run on it.
    Keeps on telling me that the "Paper source selected in the printer doesn't macy the paper loaded in the printer" which is of course bollocks.
    I have tried the solution offered by a previous post which was to got to the print preview and then Cmd - P and then choose the right paper. Worked fine on an A4 but when I did the same for a 10 x 15 cm no go.
    It suddenly started working the other day but when I chose a selection of 10 x 15's (varied portrait / landscape aspects) to print it did not orientate them correctly. The paper was installed in a portrait arrangement yet not one of the photos printed on the page correctly.
    What a waste of time this printer and Aperture are.
    Can anyone help on this most frustrating problem. I have had this printer for a few months and have only managed to print a handful of photos !
    Regards

    Hi Colin,
    The R2880 is a little finicky when it comes to paper source. A couple of questions:
    • What paper are you using? What size? Are you using the back tray or the main tray? I had a ton of problems with the back tray and that very error. I now always use the main tray, but it depends on the paper you use since certain types can only be loaded in the back.
    • Are you making sure the preset you choose is for +sheet feeder+ and not +roll paper+?
    The Preview solution you read about is probably mine and was brought on by SL. Fortunately 10.6.2 fixed that problem but I've still had the paper source error come up a couple of times - I need to open the print settings for the preset I want to use and save it again (it's as though it needs to be reminded that it should use the sheet feeder, even though that setting is saved right there in the preset).
    My first thought was that your problem might have to do with the non-conventional paper size, but I also make custom 16x12 prints on 13x19 paper and don't have problems at all.
    I'm guessing it's probably a combination of settings and paper type...

  • Pages will not print to Airprint from Ipad

    I can print using AirPrint when I print things from Safari or photos stored on my iPad or from Numbers or an email attachment, but not from Pages. I've tried rebooting my router, "forgetting" my wifi connection and hooking it up again, I've exited Pages completely (so it's not running in the background) numerous times...nothing is working.
    Strangely, Pages finds my printer just fine and goes through the motions of printing. It will tell me the usual "connecting to printer", "preparing printer", "now printing"...but nothing happens with the printer. It's like the connection between Pages and the printer gets lost somewhere. Pages used to print just fine before I updated to iOS 7. Whether that's just a coincidence or not, who knows. Has anyone else had this issue and found a solution?

    I am certain, it finds the printer in Print Forte, but if I try to print an email I get the "no airprint printer found"

  • Pixma mx 922 will not print a pic from the lower tray. Cannot put 8x10 paper in upper tray.

    I cannot print a picture using the paper in the lower tray and cannot make 8x10 paper fit in the upper tray. Is this normal for this printer. I should have stayed with a HP printer. I am using an iPad 2.

    Actually both wireless problems are mentioned frequently on the web, by many people.  I was finally able to figure a solution out because there were so many threads to choose from when you Google it...never had problems with any other wireless equipment connecting in all of the years we have used them, just this printer...As I said, a fan of Canon in all forms for years.   Just not this printer.  Regret giving up the MX850.  Have gained nothing with this printer, techinically or print quality wise..  Feels like a step back, actually. And many others have mentioned how agonizingly long it takes to fire up to print or when you change settings.   It is a major complaint with this printer.   As to the Airprint info of the 4"x6" only printing, I was not aware of that.  Maybe if printer manufacturers put that info in their sales material in the section dealing with Airprint,  we would be able to manage expectations better....  

  • My adobe print screen will not print the size that is indicated. I have it selected to "fit" but it prints out a much smaller version of the previewed picture. What can I do to fix this? iMac user. Thanks

    How can I print so that its locked at the size previewed?

  • HP Office Jet Pro 8610 will not print but will only fax

    We have a HP Office Pro Jet 8610 and it worked fine until we hooked it up as a fax machine also on Thursday. 
    It used to copy, print, scan perfectly but we need a new fax machine so we went out and bought the phone cord and hooked up a fax line and telephone with built in answering to the Office Jet and the fax works , but now it will not print a document from Open Office to the printer because it tries to make a fax cover page.
    I have run out of ideas can you please help?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    There are two "printer" drivers on there, to print, choose the "Officejet Pro 8610 Printer" instead of the "Officejet Pro 8610 FAX". You probably set the second one as default when the fax function is added, which is for PC fax. If you use the print function more often than fax, make the non-fax one the default printer.

  • 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.

    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.

  • HT4356 Epson Artisan 837 will not print from IPhone

    I have an IPhone 5 and an Epson Artisan 837 printer. When I attempt to print from my Ihone 5 I always receive an error message:
    "out of paper, paper jammed, or incorrect paper size".
    In reality,it is none of these things. I can print from my IPhone 5 to my Brother printer via the router connected to my computer, but the Epson is via WiFi/AirPrint.
    Someone tried printing from their IPhone 5 to my Epson and it worked perfectly, but it WILL NOT PRINT FROM MY IPHONE 5.

  • My wireless HP Deskjet 3050 printer will not print from web sites.

    My HP Deskjet 3050 J610 printer will not print from web sites - it prints ok from WORD, etc. I keep getting the error message: "An unknown error occurred while printing." This problem only arises with Firefox browser.
    The printer is connected wirelessly to a network and this occurs when I use a laptop on the network. It is also connected via cable to a desktop computer but there is no problem in printing from the desktop.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    That sounds as if you need to investigate to see if you were able to clear all of the paper that was causing the jam. 
    Best regards,
