HP PSC 2410 - can only print when document contains a color besides B & W..

Sorry, I got only crickets chirping on this over at "Tiger printing". Thought someone here might have insight w/ the user account "smoking gun" element. Background...
It has been frustrating since the update 10.4.7 "broke" my printing ease (it did, for whatever reason).
By accident, I finally discovered that if a text document from any program contains a color (if no color, B&W, it will not print --juts spits out blank pages) it will print when set to grayscale or color. So I have to convert any B & W documnt to a color and it will print (whether I set to gray scale or color --weird).
I created a new user account for a test, and it printed black text in "TextEdit" --okay, good, helps me narrow it down, right? So then I followed these instructions from another thread here:
"If a new user does not have the problem, then chances are it is a file in the user library. Reset the printing system, and go through and delete the com.apple.print... preference files and everything in the Printers folder. Reinstall the printer and see if that does it."
Tried it and it didn't work...
Weeks ago, I went through days and days w/ HP support through e-mail, as they would hand it off from one tech to another. Non officially they just sorta gave up on my case (I know I'm not the only one as my buddy has the same issue). I have installed their new driver, etc. I've been through many many steps of deleting this and that, but nothing worked. In all that time they never suggested the new user account. I was holding onto hope that 10.4.8. might help. Nope.
I'm hoping someone smarter than me will identify what I need to do next, a the above didn't help. Obviously the user account stuff is reavealing something in my account (a pref?) is not playing nice w/ the HP printer Thanks.

Didn't notice anything here on 10.4.8 intel with the latest drivers that it did not print some things, but did notice that when i print almost 100% cpu is used to do it.
Remove all stuff, Try installing latest 'drivers' again (see hp.com) and tell if it is still there.
If so: please tell what os, what mac.

Can only print ONE document then have to reset Airport Express to print aga

The title says it all.
Everything used to work fine until I installed Leopard. Now I can only print one document; subsequent documents will hang at 16% or 28%, etc.
Anyone else had this problem?
Thanks,
Mark

No, you are not the only person with the problem. I have tried it with both a "g" and an "n" Express (I bought the "n" hoping it might work better; nope). I have a Samsung CLP-510 plugged in to it. It prints one document, then I have to reset the Express before it will print again. When it tries to print the next document, it flashes "Unable to open device (read failure)!" briefly, then pauses the printer.
It's been driving me crazy since I installed Leopard, so I basically gave up on the Express as a print server as there seems to be no cure, and Apple seems to have no interest in fixing it. (I have been through several firmware updates since the problem started, and none have made any difference).
+Oddly, though, just now after the seventh reset, it accepted 6 of the documents in my queue (I had 22 in the queue, and I've just been waiting for it to pause, then resetting the router for each document) before it failed.+

I can only print one document LJ200 M276 and Dell Latitude e5430

I am using a HP Laser Jet 200 M276 All-in-One printer with my Dell latitude E5430 The problem is when I print a document the printer will work normally but if I try to print a second document it will not work at all. When I bring up the printer Queue it shows that the printer is still in the process of completing the first document (which has already been printed) and the second document is in the Queue waiting for the first to be completed. The only way to proceed with the printing is use task manager to close the application, shut down and reboot. Then again it only prints one document. I have installed the latest driver and updates and unplugged & replugged the printer and rebooted the computer.

The driver should be part of OS X, not something you download.
This link shows supported HP printers (6800 but no 6840).

I suggest you delete the printer, turn it off, restart your system, and turn the printer on and add it back in.

Can only print one page to the Adobe PDF printer "device".

When I print to the Adobe PDF printer device I can only print one document. When I print a second document I get the message "Adobe PDF Creation cannot continue because Acrobat is not activated." However, if I reboot, I can again print a single document.
I'm running Windows 7 pro-64 bit. I have Adobe Acrobat X pro, version 10.1.7 installed AND ACTIVATED.
Any suggestions for solving this damn headache would be much appreciated. I'm sure tired of rebooting to print PDFs.

OK, here are a couple of ideas to try....
Go to Help and try Detect and Repair.
If you have Acrobat, you can try to distill the document or try a Save As

Elements 11 - when I try to print a photo, I get this message "photoshop can not print this document"

What do I need to do when I get this message? "Photoshop can not print this document"

Those pixel dimemsions have aspect ratios that are not the same as a 5 x7 print:
1360 x 1360 = 1.0
790 x 640 = 1.23
2048 x 1366 = 1.5
An 7 x 5 image = 1.4.
So you'll need to crop the images to 5 x 7 before printing. The first two images are a little light in the pixels to produce a high resolution 5 x 7 print.
Happy Holidays

I have the same problem with my HP C6380 MY8CJ880F6. For me it is +80% of what I am printing I only get 1 page and has to print the rest 1 by 1. The problem is 6 month old and I have tried almost everything except the right solution ;-}
Setup Windows 7, 64 bit (Danish). Wireless communication.
I have tried reinstalling, use HP diagnostics and a lot of other things. Diagnostics says everything is fine. Microsoft Fix It diagnostics says the same about the Windows 7 printer support functions.
My other printer a HP Designjet 111 runs perfect. When I am out of office I use other printers no problems. But the HP C6380 will in most applications especially Acrobat Reader only print 1 page at a time.
I have tried to change the printer into factory settings that sometimes do the trick for the Microsoft Office 10 products installed but not for Acrobat. Most of my documents are PDF so either i get the fixed or I will have to invest in another printer.
Any body with a solution ?

Data merge with football tickets. Printing causes out of memory errors. Can only print 10 at a time!

Here's the deal. Printing football tickets for the local high school. 10 tickets per 8.5 x 11 sheet. All black and white. I couldn't data merge into one whole document of tickets because it was failing to do that. So, I end up with 3 documents. First two have 50 pages of tickets and the last has 37 pages.
When I go to print, I can only print 10 pages at a time or InDesign straight up crashes or I get an "Out of Memory" error which is bull because I've got plenty of ram available (unless it's complaining about lack of HD space for some reason)
Incredibly frustrating.
Each ticket has 3 images on it. Two of the images are the same. Those two images are about 103kb .ai files. Very very simple. The other image is a TIFF that is about 76kb. So there are 1000 .ai files / document and 500 TIFFs.
Here's a video I took of it ripping: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCjvdmXuaYs&feature=c4-overview&list=UUf_1UFp80YLZJfCyIxXEg kg
Also, when printing, I have the Send Data set to Optimized Subsampling instead of "All". That's not seeming to help.
Any thoughts?
IDCS 5.5
OSX 10.8.4

I just ran a sample on my laptop.
AI file, duplicated, is 284k. Image is roughly 200k. The CSV has 2054 records, and the merged document with 10 per page is 250 megabytes. PDF is just under 50 megs.
This laptop has only 4 gigs memory but has a lot of free disk space. It took a good amount of time to do the merge, a bit longer to create the PDF-X1a PDF.

Can only print one item at a time

Hey everyone,
Bit of a Photoshop novice here, use it for DVD covers and labels. I have been using CS3 previously but upgraded to CS5.5 last year. The thing is on CS5.5 I can only print one page at a time even when I input say 20 copies to be printed, only one will print. That goes for the regular printer for printing covers and the disc printer.
I can open CS3 up and right away it will print however many I ask it to.
Is there something I am missing? Something so painfully obvious that it is staring me in the face but I am just not seeing it?
Thanks in advance!

It isn't a printer setting. I have 3 different printers connected to my system and all of them worked with CS3 fine. And when I delete the preferences folder for CS5.1 it works as it should but only once, then afterwards it only prints one copy, no matter how many I ask it to print!
So if it works when the preferences have been removed, then fails to work afterwards, how can that be a printer setting?
I have read elsewhere that others have had similar issues with CS5 and Windows 7.

Can only print from certain programs. Started suddenly.

Everything was working just fine and then suddenly I can only print from InDesign and Word. And when I print from InDesign I can't change any settings in the "print" dialog box or the program freezes and crashes. When I try to print from firefox, photoshop, illustrator among others, it freezes and crashes. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the print driver and restarting my computer numerous times and the problem persists. (Unless I am not doing it properly) I go into my printer settings and remove the printer then go back in and reinstall it.
Any thoughts or help is greatly appreciated as this is affecting my ability to do my job efficiently. Thanks so much.

I can only print the current page of downloaded pdf's. Not able to print "all". I'm using a Macbook air.

I can only print the current page of downloaded pdf's. Not able to print "all". I'm using a Macbook air.

it says "the document could not be printed". "There were no ages selected to print".
I selected "all". I always tried selecting pages "1-3".
The only choice that works is current page. Very strange.

XL Reports - EXCEL msg -You can only open the document as Read Only

READ ONLY notification from MS EXCEL when two people try to run the same XLR report at the same time. Here is what is going on:
u2022 Person A runs an XLR report (SAP client running on a Local Machine)
u2022 Person B runs the same XLR report and now gets a MS message to the fact that u201CYou can only open the document as Read Onlyu201D
Can two people run and save the same report at the same time? If so, what do we need to do to allow this?

Can two people run and save the same report at the same time ?
The answer is NO. It is because Excel locked the file. Only one active user can do write operation on the file. All other users may open the file read only.

Only available when document rights are enabled

Hi,
Adobe 9.4.6, Ubuntu Natty
When I open a pdf file with PDFXchange reader running in Wine, I can highlight text in the file.
When I open the same file with Adobe I cant even dipslay the highlight toolbar, it says "Only available when document rights are enabled"
How can I fix this?

If by Adobe you mean Adobe Reader, then that would be normal for Reader 9, if you're talking about the Hightlight Text annotation tool. Reader 10 allows you to add text highlights and sticky note annotations without the document having the corresponding usage rights, assuming it doesn't have any security restrictions that would prevent it. Other PDF viewers are free to behave however they want.
