HP Laserjet M401A could not set different paper size and tray on printer properties

Good morning all. I'm experiencing a issue setting custom paper size and tray in this printer properties. I would like to set up three different printers, on the same port, to print directly on a specific tray (without enter the printer properties and select the proper tray and size). I have this printer with the additional third tray. I have set up A4 in tray 1 (bypass), custom size in tray 2 and 3 on the printer. When i enter the printer PROPERTIES i want to set up set custom paper size in tray 2 and 3. No way.The only sizes i can see is 13x8, a4, a5, letter, legal, and so on (there are maybe 7 choices). So i choose NOT SPECIFIED. When i go on printer PREFERENCES, i can set up my custom paper size.But when i choose my custom paper size, the tray 2 and 3 go away and i can only choose bypass or tray 1.If i set up A5 (for example) the tray 2 and 3 re-appear. How is it possible? where i am wrong? Many thanks, any help would be appreciated.Cheers,Luca.

I have done extensive research online and looked for relevant posts in other forums, plus I downloaded a LaserJet 4L service manual. The verdict: A common cause of this no-power problem is a faulty DC controller board, blown fuse(s) on it, or other circuitry glitch. I am sure that the paper tray is inserted correctly.
So I decided to cut my losses (I'm not inclined to pull the printer apart to try to fix it--it's not worth my time) and tossed the printer. It's not cost-effective or time-effective to spend a lot of money or time to resuscitate old hardware, except perhaps as a learning exercise.
I consider this thread now closed.

  • How do I change the default paper size in Firefox if Printer Properties does nothing?

    I print on different including a receipt printer with roll paper.
    I had to reset Firefox yesterday because of a bug, and then changed the Printer Properties to be able to print again in the right format on the receipt paper. But now everything I print from Firefox (even when I change the paper size to Letter on the Printer properties for the regular printer) is in the receipt paper format (long and narrow.) When I do Print Preview, I can see that the paper looks like the roll paper, even if I'm trying to print on letter size.
    I tried resetting both printers with about:config, I tried changing in the printer properties for both printers and nothing works.
    Is there a way to change the default paper size in Firefox?

    Hello,
    My understanding is that Firefox uses the global printer settings. I am not familiar with the Windows 8 interface, but can you change the printer settings in its Devices and Printers and see if it changes the default for Firefox as well?

  • I keep getting "Could Not Set Up Apple Pay" right after I click on "Set Up Apple Pay". How do I fix this?

    I have not set up my apple pay at all yet, so there are no cards on it. I open up Passbook, and click "Set Up Apple Pay" and it just pops up with a dialog box that says "Could Not Set Up Apple Pay" and nothing happens. Sometimes it asks me to log in with my Apple ID but then the box appears again. How do I get around this?

    The credit card question is irrelevant because I can't get far enough in the process of setting up my apple pay to input a card. But if I were to get far enough, it would be the same card that is associated with my Apple ID.
    My restrictions are all off.
    I reset my phone and the problem still remains
    Here is what happens in as much detail as I can explain: I awake my phone. I open Passbook, I then tap "Set Up Apple Pay" and 2-5 seconds later this is the screen I get.
    It gives me no other options. I can select "Set Up Apple Pay" over and over again and nothing changes. This is the same result if I were to go through Settings > Passbook & Apple Pay > Add Credit or Debit Card.
    I don't know what to do.

  • Can I print to different paper sizes with AirPrint and Safari?

    I am the organizer of a trade show coming up.
    We are using a web based registration system for attendees.
    To print the attendee badges, we simply log in to the site through the net, and print them.  I have an HP CP1525nw loaded with 3x5 index cards that will slide into the badge holders.
    When printing from the Mac, I simply go to Page Setup, set the paper size and orientation and print.   It works great.
    However, we would love to use iPads for our registration staff.  Not only are they less expensive, but they are portable, and totally wireless.   We can access the site just fine, and the badges show great on the screen.   The website generates the badges as a .pdf file and they load into the browser.
    When printing from the iPad, the badges print HUGE, filling an entire 8.5x11 size page.   With the 3x5 card stock loaded in the paper tray, they still print huge, only showing the portion of the badge on the 3x5 card in the location it would be had there been letter size paper in the tray.
    Any ideas?
    I've considered formatting another badge for letter size, and having it print only where the 3x5 card would fall... but that is a huge tweak that I think should be unnecessary.
    How do I print to different size paper from my iPad?
    Thanks for the help in advance.
    --Brian

    Thanks for the info.
    It will let me send the PDF to eprint....  and there are paper size choices.
    However, they only offer Letter, Legal and A4.
    My printer DOES support 3x5 index cards.  But, the option is not listed.
    Any other ideas?

  • [Apache 2] Critical error mod_rewrite: Could not set permissions on rewrite

    Hi,
    Well I had a look around to this problem and it seems it is specific to mac os system on intel machines, so I send my post here.
    I had installed the apache 2 server from www.serverlogistics.com and it seems to start. However it is impossible to log into my local website with an error in my web browser "can't log to "localhost" server".
    By reading the logs I got in /Library/Apache2/logs/error_log (where there is also a httpd.pid file): [crit] (14)Bad address: mod_rewrite: Could not set permissions on rewriteloglock; check User and Group directives Configuration Failed
    So, I commented the line "LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so" in /Library/Apache2/conf/httpd.conf with no efffect at all.
    Then I don't know what to do.... any idea please ?
    NB : I did not configure or set any htaccess file in any directory.

    If you'd like help, you need to describe the specific problems you're having. You're not giving people here much to go on in order to be able to help. Without knowing what you've already tried, and what the results were, it's impossible to say if you've just made a simple mistake or if you've truly hit upon something that won't work. The Apache logs are especially helpful, with lots of detailed information to help in troubleshooting.
    To say the true, I bought this Macbook because the system kernel is 100% compatible with Linux, and I was full of naives hopes, thinking that I will install/compile easily softwares that are usual under Linux world.....
    I certainly haven't had much problem compiling and installing software that's distributed as source code, though I haven't tried to compile Apache. While it's true that much of the software will compile, it's also true that you might have to make some small changes here and there to the source code to get it to work correctly. But you might also have to do the same thing to get them to compile on different Linux distributions. So OS X isn't that different in that respect.
    If you want to get Apache 2 running with MAMP, post back with specific information on what problems you had and I'll try to help. I've been hacking at Apache installations for many years now, so if I know the problems you're having, there's a good chance I've been through them, too.

  • Could Not Set Up Apple Pay

    Can't seem to setup apple pay. Have tried both in settings and passbook. I get the same error.
    "Could Not Set Up Apple Pay
    An error occurred while setting up Apple Pay"
    Anyone have any ideas why this is happening? I have re started the phone twice, nothing. Same error. Can't get pass the "Add Credit or Debit Card" link.
    Thanks!

    I have two different email addresses for my iCloud and iTunes accounts, and the email I used for my iCloud was never set up for iTunes. After I signed out my iTunes account and signed in using the same email as my iCloud account, I was finally able to set up Apple Pay. I can see this can be a common problem for many people like me, Apple needs to provide an update to fix this bug.

  • Error trying to run SSIS Package via SQL Server Agent: DTExec: Could not set \Package.Variables[User::VarObjectDataSet].Properties[Value] value to System.Object

    Situation:
    SSIS Package designed in SQL Server 2012 - SQL Server Data Tools
    Windows 7 - 64 bit.
    The package (32 bit) extracts data from a SQL Server db to an Excel Output file, via an OLE DB connection.
    It uses 3 package variables:
    *) SQLCommand (String) to specify the SQL Statement to be executed by the package
    Property path: \Package.Variables[User::ExcelOutputFile].Properties[Value]
    Value: f:\Output Data.xls
    *) EXCELOutputFIle (String) to specify path and filename of the Excel output file
    Property path: \Package.Variables[User::SQLCommand].Properties[Value]
    Value: select * from CartOrder
    *) VarObjectDataSet (Object) to hold the data returned by SQL Server)
    Property path: \Package.Variables[User::VarObjectDataSet].Properties[Value]
    Value: System.Object
    It consists out of 2 components:
    *) Execute SQL Task: executes the SQL Statement passed on via a package variable. The resultng rows are stored in the package variable VarObjectDataSet
    *) Script Task: creates the physical output file and iterates VarObjectDataSet to populate the Excel file.
    Outcome and issue:The package runs perfectly fine both in SQL Server Data Tools itself and in DTEXECUI.
    However, whenever I run it via SQL Server Agent (with 32 bit runtime option set), it returns the errror message below.
    This package contains 3 package variables but the error stating that a package variable can not be set, pops up for the VarObjectDataSet only.  This makes me wonder if it is uberhaupt possible to set the value of a package variable
    of type Object.
    Can anybody help me on this please ?

    Hi Visakh,
    thank you for your reply.
    So, judging by your reply, not all package variables used inside a package need to be set a value for when run in DTEXEC ?
    I already tried that but my package ended up in error (something to do with "... invocation ...." and that error is anything but clearly documented. Judging by the error message itself, it looks like it could be just about anything. that is why I asked my
    first question about the object type package variable.
    Now, I will remove it from the 'set values' list and try another go cracking the unclear error-message " ... invocation ...". Does an error message about " ... invocation ..." ring any bells, now that we are talking about it here ?
    Thx in advance
    Jurgen
    Yes exactly
    You need to set values only forthem which needs to be controlled from outside the package
    Any variable which gets its value through expression set inside package or through a query inside execute sql task/script task can be ignored from DTExec
    Ok I've seen the invocation error mostly inside script task. This may be because some error inside script written in script task. If it appeared after you removed the variable then it may because some reference of variable existing within script task.

  • Workflow Error Message: System Account - The Workflow could not set Content Approval Status

    This is the first time I try an approval workflow. I am using a template in MS Word and assigned an approval workflow to it. The approval workflow is only going to one person in this case.
    When I start the work flow the following 3 error messages show up:
    Workflow Error Message: System Account - The Workflow could not set Content Approval Status. Enable content moderation for this list and run the workflow again.
    Workflow Error Message: System Account - The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the e-mail has a valid recipient.
    Workflow Error Message: System Account - The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the outgoing e-mail settings for the server are configured correctly.
    Thank you for your kind guidance.

    Hi,
    For the first error: Did you set Content Approval in the workflow?  If so, see if you have it in the versioning settings of the list settings.
    For the second error: double check your recipient is set up as being valid.  Did you type in the email address or is it referring to a people picker field?  also, make sure that in the workflow for the email that you actually populated it in the
    To: field.
    for the third error: I suspect that either your farm is not configured for email.  Or, this error is a knock on from the second error.  If you get the second error rectified it may clear this error.  If not then double check the email settings
    for your farm.

  • Want help with "Could not set up your CS Live account. Try again later."

    Hi Folks
    I've got an NFR of CS6 and I'm trying to give Adobe Story a shot.
    Seems it requires online content and a CS Live account to do anything.
    But when I try to create one it dies with the error message:
    Account setup not completed
    Could not set up your CS Live account. Try again later.
    Can you help?
       Joe
    UPDATE: Downloaded update and that fixed things.
    However, turns out my NFR of CS6 Production Premium doesn't allow me to use Story.
    And here all I wanted to to do try out the transcription features of Premiere Pro.
    Without a script it's complete gobbledygook. Would like to try it with a script but it appears I need Story to convert my PDF to Adobe Story format.
    Oh well.

    I ran into the same problem you did, Joe.  I just realized Story is all online now.  Story.Adobe.com
