I highlight selection in my email, click print/selection, printer spits out a page with nothing on it

Yahoo email...months ago I could highlight and print selection
Can select and print selection from everywhere (document files, web pages) except email

Yahoo has been changing its mail design. Are you trying to print from the "print optimized" view (which opens in a pop-up window or separate tab)? Depending on which version of Yahoo mail you have, this may be on the "More" menu or somewhere else. (Sometimes I get a popup block; in that case, trying again works for me.)
More generally...
When Firefox produces a blank page printing a selection, this could be because the selection is laid out "off" the page (e.g., to the side or on a later page). The position of the selection on the page depends on how the page was laid out by the site design. Firefox sometimes will isolate the selection at the beginning of the print job, but very often will keep it within the original layout and simply blank the rest of the content. This can be wasteful or even useless.
Here are some workarounds:
(1) [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nuke-anything-enhanced/ Nuke Anything Enhanced extension]
See: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/927457#answer-333518 When using print selection in Firefox 12.0, it prints wherever the selection is on the page (on paper) instead of at the top of the page (of paper)].
(2) Use a bookmarklet (snippet of JavaScript saved as a button on your bookmarks toolbar) to isolate the selection for printing.
This is the technique I generally use due to force of habit. The details are in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/943039#answer-384875 this post].
Any luck?

I can't print web pages or emails. All I get is a blank page with nothing but the headed tag at top.

I can't print my emails. Tried to get help from my email provider. They asked if I could print pages. I tried and found out that didn't work either. All I get is a blank page with the header tag at the top.

Hi,
Please see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problems_printing_web_pages this]. If the web page has a Print button/icon you can try to use that. You can also try right-clicking on the relevant section of the page > '''This Frame''' > '''Print Frame'''.

Time Machine on my iMac won't open iPhoto. It goes to desktop screen automatically. When I select User/Picture/Iphoto library it only brings up the preview page with the size of the folder. I can't get into the library to look for lost photos.

Thank You. This helps me alot to get into the masters and to see events and photos in a utilitarian way, but it is not as easy as viewing the normal iphoto format to find photos. Can I do something else or did I not do something right to not see normal iphoto in Time Machine ?

Printer spits out blank pages v8.1.3

When I hit print button, my printer spits out blank pages
(about the same number as there are pages in the pdf document). The
printer works fine with other programs (Word, Excel etc.) but not
with the Acrobat 8.1.3
What gives?

How can I print only "odd" or only "even" pages with version10.6.3

Sorry for my stupidity, but I'm very new to Mac. Love it, but am about to throw it across the room. My old PC just had a button to click in the print window that said "print only odd pages", then I could turn the pages over and click "print only even pages" and they would be two sided.
Where is this button on the Mac?
Thank you

Your welcome. BTW you may want to invest a few bucks on a good OS X book, lots of really useful information that can save you a huge amount of time. One I really like is:

How do I print multiple (4) photos on one page with a border around each?

How do I print multiple photos on one page with a border around each? I've gone the contact sheet route and adjusted the number of columns but there's only outer margins and very little white space between the photos down the middle of the page.

Ok, now I feel stupid! I always thought I was printing 6 x 4 but now I realise I can't have done!!
The photos that I used to print are approx. 5.2" x 4" (i.e. 4 fitted nicely on a page & I had to cut the boarder off).
I guess I just need to play with different sizes under the 'custom' option in order to get the biggest possible picture!
Thanks for the help

All of a sudden I can't print anything on my macbook. I am directly connected to a printer where i had printed before now if I hit print it just gives me blank pages with websites header? any ideas what went wrong?

I just started having issues printing with my macbook when before I had no problem. same printer, nothing has changed. when I try to print it just prints me blank pages with internet headers even WHEN i am not printing off the internet, simply pdf documents. any idea what I am doing wrong or what changed?

Hi evelia,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The first thing I would suggest is to shut down your computer and turn off your printer. Then do the reverse -- turn the printer on first, then your computer. If the issue still persists:
Check to make sure there are no jobs waiting to be printed. (Apple Menu > System Preferences > Printers & Scanners)
Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3147
If all else fails, reset the printing system and install the printer again:

I hope this information helps ....

HP printer spitting out extra pages

Anyone else experience this: When printing from the web, my HP printer spits out a bunch (say 3-4) of blank pages and then prints the page(s) that are specified.
(Apparently I'm full of printing issues lately...)
Any suggestions? It does it regardless of browser. (netscape, safari and foxfire)
Thanks!

Not recently, but I can tell you that my Epson printer prints web pages perfectly. It's worth a shot, however, so I'll try it. Ya never know.

Printing from firefox spits out extra blank page

When I print from Firefox my printer firsts spits out a blank page before printing what was expected.

I have a similar issue -- a page before is printed and after the actual document.
yes -- the blank page appears in preview. I was able to get rid of the first one with this CSS:
@media print {
body * { float: none !important; }
But I still get the blank page afterwards.
Not sure why, but I'll let you know if I find anything else

When I click print preview I get a blank page with the toolbar but no preview just ads for POGO and yahoo search. WHY?

Printer info, # of pp. page set-up, scale, & portrait or landscape choices are at the top of the page, but there is no preview print showing at all. Just a web search box and a POGO ad are visible in an otherwise blank page. What do I have to do to see the page I am trying to preview?

Did you post this from the computer with the problem?
It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware.
Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is
there for. Also, check the programs that are on your computer
'''Windows:''' Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.
'''Mac:''' Open the "Applications" folder
'''Linux:'''
* [http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/see_all_your_installed_applications_ubuntu_unity Ubuntu Unity]''' {web link}
* Xfce: Applications Menu category sections
* options depends on the package manager and the desktop environment
Go thru the list. If you find something that you don't
know what it is, use a web search.

Print out a page with a all controls

Hello
Is it possible to print out all the controls on a page.
I meam all together with one function?
Thanks
Phil1

I assume you're asking how do you print an MFC dialog with all of its controls. Is that correct? If so, try adding a method to your dialog class with this code:
CPrintDialog printDlg(FALSE);
if (printDlg.DoModal() != IDOK)
return;
DOCINFO documentInfo;
::ZeroMemory(&documentInfo, sizeof(documentInfo));
documentInfo.cbSize = sizeof(documentInfo);
documentInfo.lpszDocName = _T("Dialog Document");
HDC hdcPrinter = printDlg.GetPrinterDC();
CDC printerDC;
printerDC.Attach(hdcPrinter);
printerDC.StartDoc(&documentInfo);
printerDC.StartPage();
HDC hdcScreen = ::GetDC(NULL);
CDC screenDC;
screenDC.Attach(hdcScreen);
long screenPpiX = ::GetDeviceCaps(hdcScreen, LOGPIXELSX)
long screenPpiY = ::GetDeviceCaps(hdcScreen, LOGPIXELSY);
long printerPpiX = ::GetDeviceCaps(hdcPrinter, LOGPIXELSX);
long printerPpiY = ::GetDeviceCaps(hdcPrinter, LOGPIXELSY);
long xRatio = printerPpiX / screenPpiX;
long yRatio = printerPpiY / screenPpiY;
CRect windowRect;
GetWindowRect(&windowRect);
CRect targetRect = windowRect;
targetRect.right = targetRect.left + (targetRect.Width() * xRatio);
targetRect.bottom = targetRect.top + (targetRect.Height() * yRatio);
targetRect.OffsetRect(
-targetRect.left + (targetRect.left * xRatio),
-targetRect.top + (targetRect.top * yRatio)
CDC* dialogDC = GetDC();
printerDC.StretchBlt(
0,
0,
targetRect.Width(),
targetRect.Height(),
dialogDC,
0,
0,
windowRect.Width(),
windowRect.Height(),
SRCCOPY
ReleaseDC(dialogDC);
screenDC.Detach();
p
rinterDC.EndPage();
printerDC.EndDoc();
printerDC.Detach();
This isn't perfect, but hopefully it can get you started.

Used to be able to print from my iPad but now when I print the paper comes out but there is nothing on it

Problem printing from my iPad use to work now the paper comes out empty

Go into iMessage and Facetime and sign out.
Go to Settings > iTunes and App Store, log out the person who sold it to you and enter your information.
Or go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings and then start from scratch.

Using the File-Print command in Firefox results in the printer spitting out multiple pages of random text. IE prints fine. Help!

Can not print directly through Firefox.
