ICal printing/format issues

I can not get my iCal to print entirely on a single page (standard 8.5 x 11) OR in color. Under normal circumstances I would say it's my printer...but I have no issues at all printing my MS Office Calendar or anything else. Is anyone else having this issue? Any help would be REALLY appreciated. Thanks!

Where do I start - it was an easy but long winded process. Firstly when you plug your iPod in and start iTunes you have the option of just pressing "sync" at the bottom. Each time you sync this way the colours on the iPod remain the same not necessarily the same as in iCal but the same on the iPod. With the iPod plugged in go to the "info" tab and right down the bottom choose "Replace information on this iPod" and click the "calendars" checkbox. You will then see "Apply" on the bottom right. Click this and the iPod will just sync from your calendar. Each time you do this the colours change on the iPod. Repeat this process as many times as you wish until you get the colours the way you want them. When you have done this go to iCal and highlight the calendar you want to change the colour for then right click or hold ctrl and left click (if you have a single button mouse). Then "get info". In this tab you will see the colour for the calendar. Click to change it to the same colour as on your iPod. Do this for each of your calendars. Next time you sync your iPod on the main summary screen the colours should stay the same. Painful, I know but a work around non the less.

PRINT FORMAT issue

Hi ALL,
We have recently upgraded to ECC 6.0.
We are facing an issue with the print format. In the BG job, we have set the page format as 'X_65_132', but when it is creating the spool it is changing the format to X_65_255.
Please give your valuable suggestions on what could be the reason for this?

most probably this is an unicode issue.
/correction
my above statement is crap. it should be the printer setting which make this happen.
just try the proposal of the poster below.

Smartform -Network printer format Issue

Hi,
I can print fine using my YPCC default printer.
But When i do through network printer FORMAT is getting Disturbed( Values are printing in next line).How can we handle this? Do we need to do some driver program modifications?
Here are the parameters in Driver program
CALL FUNCTION fm_name
      EXPORTING
        archive_index        = toa_dara
        archive_index_tab    = arc_ind_tab

        control_parameters   = ls_control_param
        mail_appl_obj        = ls_recipient
        mail_recipient       = ls_recipient
        mail_sender          = ls_sender
        output_options       = ls_composer_param
        user_settings        = space
        wa_itab              = wa_header

        document_output_info = document_output_info
        job_output_info      = job_output_info
        job_output_options   = job_output_options

      EXCEPTIONS
        formatting_error     = 1
        internal_error       = 2
        send_error           = 3
        user_canceled        = 4.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
      WRITE: / 'ERROR in passing vars to the smartforms '.
    ENDIF.
    ls_composer_param-tdnewid = space.
    ls_control_param-no_dialog = 'X'.

YOu need to modify the smartform not the driver program to print all lines the way you want by changing font size, reducing line length...etc..etc..
It's printing fine on the default PC printer, because, it uses windows printer driver to render the output, where as SAP network printer uses SAP printer driver to generate the printer commands, there's always difference in the output between the two drivers.

ICal print format

I've used Now Up-to-date for over ten years. I would like to switch to iCal, totally, except I can't make it print the way I want it to so it will fit into my planner. I want to see a month, printed landscape on an 8.5x11 sheet, split down the center to be punched with 7 holes to go into my planner. If I do this now, I split Thursday in half (a real pain).
Thanks,
DL

Hi macshine and all others that wanted to figure this one out,
This one plagued me as well and through 15 different threads giving old info that is no longer relevant I finally figued it out.
You need to create an 8.5x8.5 paper size. From Safari or most any program (except calendar) select print. In the printer options there is a pull down menu called "paper size". It's most likely already selected "US Leter". Select "Mange Custom Sizes" and create a new paper size. Call it whatever you want. Make the paper size 8.5in x 8.5in and hit okay.
What you are doing is tricking the progam with this option. If you made a 8.5 in wide by 11 tall paper size it would still set it up in landscape. When you select your new square option it throws it off and forces everything into a 8.5 inch wide page. Now go back to the paper size pull down menu and select US letter. Don't know why, but it now lays eveything out in portrait mode. You will need to select your square paper size first and then the US letter size everytime you want to print in portrait.
I hope this helps.

Reports 6 - Print Formatting Issues

If our default printer is 'HP Laser1' and we send a bitmap Reports 6 report to the previewer (where page 1 gets formatted so you can see it) and then change the printer from the previewer to 'Genicom Printer', page 1 will be formatted properly, but the remaining pages will be formatted with symbols. In addition, some reports are only printing half the page, leaving the right side blank (not accepting pagesize parameters).
What I'm looking for are instructions or documentation specific to setting up a printing environment where there are multiple printer types, but where reports may be printed on any printer. I have found information in Oracle documentation which alludes to usage of files containing lists of printers and associated fonts for translation or using the desttype parameter etc.
I think we can set up an environment that works, but there may be a better way. Has anyone had experiences along this line?

One thing you might do is this. Don't display the Title View in your reports. You can do this either by deleting the views from the Compound Layout or, within Edit Dashboard, by selecting only the view that contains the report. (Obviously, if your report has several view, you would need to choose the first route.)
Instead of the Title View, do this: In the Dashboard section which contains both reports, click on the "Rename" button. Type the name of that best illustrates both reports, check the "Display Section Heading" checkbox and click "OK."
Next, click the "Rename" button again and this time go in to the formatting section to format as required. (Note: After you check the checkbox, if you don't click "OK" right after, the check mark won't stick. So click "OK" and then go back in to do any formatting you wish.)
This method allows the user to collapse the section and still see what the section is about. This is good practice when you have several reports in one dashboard page. Even collapsing all the sections, you can see what is "inside" and expand the appropriate section.
HTH,

ICal Print List Hang / Font Issue / Sync Problems...

Okay, here's a couple issues all wrapped up into one thread/post - reason is cause I suspect they may all be tied together somehow, but am not sure.
Sync Problems...
Regarding the Syncing problems, you can find an ongoing thread about @ http://forums.markspace.com/viewtopic.php?t=1632
In short, some of us are having issues with events syncing to our Palm to the wrong timezone, causing them to be an hour off (usually within the new & old DST date change). Yes, all the usual fixes have been tried - pls read the thread noting "adairnet" and ymatto" postings.
Also, in addition to this time issue, I have iCal events that I've deleted in iCal still show up on the Palm after one-way syncing!
Print List Hang...
Every week I print a "list" of events from a certain calendar. The past couple weeks I noticed some lines in the notes field printing on top of each other. Twas odd indeed, but I hadn't had the time to look into the reason. Then this week I was going thru my usual printing proceedure and now iCal locks up, hangs up, crashes, forcing me to force-quit the program. It's usually after I extend the dates beyond 2 or 3 days, but I've not been able to find a consistency. I've redone events thinking they were corrupt with no success.
Font Problems...
After the Print List issue above, I opened my Console program to see if it was reporting anything. At first it indicated that it could not find Helvetica Neue and would substitute it for Helvetica. This put me in touch with some font corruption - so I got rid of those bad fonts and activated Helvetica Neue which got rid of that message. But made me wonder if there are more font problems causing the print hanging & syncing problems. I have FontAgent Pro and do have some font issues that I'm trying to work out.
But the Console is displaying another string of messages every time the Print List proceedure hangs up which I cannot figure out...
2007-04-24 16:24:54.151 iCal[28975] NSATSGlyphStorage inconsistency. Cannot find run storage for character range {138 67} for CTRun 0xDBE87D0. Ignoring the run...
2007-04-24 16:24:55.175 iCal[28975] -[NSMutableStringProxyForMutableAttributedString replaceOccurrencesOfString:withString:options:range:] called with out-of-bounds range. For apps linked on Tiger this will raise an exception. For earlier apps it will produce this one-time warning and continue with existing behavior (which is undefined).

So, all of this is causing me to wonder if the iCal or SyncServices database is corrupt. Is there a way to dig into the iCal db and check for corruption &/or fix it?
Or does anybody have any further suggestions on any of these issues?
thanx.jason.

RedKamel,
The SyncServices folder should be avoided like "a swarm of bees". This article discusses some of the issues that can arise when the SyncServices folder is deleted or modified:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301920
Data loss and Data corruption can result from deleting or modifying the SyncServices folder, and that data loss or corruption can be propogated to devices, .Mac, and other applications that sync with SyncServices.
If you have isolated an issue with the other steps in your post, I would recomend speaking with AppleCare before removing that folder.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Microsoft Excel Mac Issues - Print Format

I have Microsoft Office Mac 2008 and just purchased Microsoft Office Mac2011.
There is a formatting issue with printing spreadsheets as Excel defaults to Portrait and 100% Scaling. I save the Excel worksheets formatted as Landscape and 60% Scaling in order to fit each worksheet on one page. However, when I then reopen a spreadsheet and attempt to print, Excel frequently defaults to Portrait and 100% scale, so the worksheet may then take four pages to print.
This is very frustrating and unprofessional when I send the spreadsheet to a third party. It appears as if I don't know how to format the Print function.
I spent more than an hour with Mac technical support, but they could not resolve the issue. We uninstalled Office, including all of the Libraries, several times, but the problem persists.
I hoped that Microsoft Office Mac 2011 would resolve the issue, but it is still a problem.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Does anyone have a solution?
Thank you very much.

Printing formats ical 2

It seems there is general agreement that ical 2.x is a step backward from ical 1.x, at least as far as printing formatting goes. I've searched and so far no one has posted a good work around.
Has anyone running Tiger tried to reinstall ical 1.x ?
G4, iMac, ipod Mac OS X (10.4.6)

You can select from 3 sizes, but all too small to look from a distance for me.
In addition, the letters wouldn't be coloured. Just coloured tabs.
I wish I could use iCal 1.5.5 on my PowerBook.

Print module issues

Hi,
for me there are three issues that are missing / should be improved with the print module:
The sharpening quality and setting options are still behind i.e. Qimage. Having in mind what Qimage is costing, it should be fairly ease for Adobe to reach the better Qimage output sharpening quality.
Soft proofing is still missing and should be added in the next major release at the latest.
There should be something like a loop view for the print layout screen. When using large format printer formats the rulers become extremely small that an exact positioning is almost impossible.
Looking forward to these, in the given priority.

The print resolution is no longer displayed making it difficult to decide if I need to modify the resolution prior to printing.
Why would you modify the resolution? One of the huge advantages of Lightroom is that you don't have to do things like this anymore. You simply choose the output resolution in the Print Job panel and Lightroom takes care of the rest. How (and why) exactly are modifying resolution?
As to your second question, I am getting a print preview when I turn it on in the printer driver. Although I would never use it, it is working here.
It might help to submit some system info and some printer info:

Crystal for VS 2010 - formatting issues in viewer (extra space) again

We're having the same problem as the one in this thread link:[Crystal 2008 for VS 2010 - Report formatting issues in viewer (extra space);. There's no resolution in the thread and it's been closed. I'm hoping that creating a new thread may cause someone to answer this problem.
We have a Windows App that we just converted to .NET 4.0 and updated the viewer to the Crystal Reports Viewer in VS 2010. When we open a report that has a large block of static text in paragraphs left-aligned the spacing around punctuation is awful - there's almost a tab's worth of space between the last letter and the period. U.S. looks like US. This happens both with reports that were created in VS2008 and ones that were created in VS2010. It is only a problem in the viewer's display - if we print to a printer or export to PDF the spacing around punctuation is fine. It's also not a problem on our development workstations which are running Windows 7, but is a problem on our test servers which are running Windows 2003 Server. I ran the modules tool and found that the version of usp10.dll does match what the previous thread said it should be and it's coming from the c:\program files\sap businessobjects\crystal reports for .net framework 4.0\common\sap businessobjects enterprise xi 4.0\win32_x86\ folder. On my development machine when I run the modules tool I notice that a second instance of usp10.dll is called which is the version installed with Windows 7. We've tried changing fonts but none of the ones we've tried (originally in Times New Roman, 12, tried Arial, Times and various sizes) have made a difference. We also tried changing the print options with no improvement. The only thing that makes it slightly better is full-alignment but our customer insists that it be left-aligned.

Re. the other thread. I never did receive a sample of the report to test with. Perhaps I can get one from you? I need you to ensure that the issue occurs with a "saved data" report. If it does, let me know if you can share it and I'll contact you via email. My comment in the other thread re. available time, priorities, etc., still applies. Also, just to be clear. Service Pack 2 for CRVS2010 is closed now. Thus if I am able to reproduce the issue the fix will be targeted for October \ November time frame - no guarantees though...

Print quality issues

Hello
We are having print quality issue when printing PDF's to our Canon iR C2880/C3380 UFR II. This was the most recent print driver from canons website which was download about 6 weeks ago. version 2.9. At one time we were having other pring quality issues and we changed from the post script driver to the ufr ii which solved the problem at the time.
This past saturday we upgrade the operating systems on the systems in question and they are now running windows 7 64 bit with service pack 1 installed. image 1 is the orignal pdf that was printed with a 3rd party pdf printer(PDF Xchange view version 2.5) image 2 is the same document that was printed using acrobat reader 10.1.2
the options for the print were pretty much identical between the program. Print as image was not selected. 1 thing to note with the acrobat when print as image was selected there was a slight improvement in the print quality.
Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Hi, nd a warm welcome to the forums!
Off the bat, it looks like maybe bad RAM/ROM in the Printer, or corrupt Font.
Can you have another Computer jook to it and print for a test?
Can you try Printing from Adobe Reader...
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
Can you in Preview, Save As a picture format for a test?

On the Wall Street Journal website, I am not able to print out of the print format. Never had a problem before with this.

I click on the print icon under an article in the Wall Street Journal. A new window opens with the article in print format. When I print, I get blank paginated pages equaling the length of the article. On the top left hand corner of the page will appear the title of the article; on the top right hand corner will appear the web address of the article; on the bottom left hand corner will appear the pagination; and on the bottom right hand corner will be the date and time of the printing. This is just how any article would print; the only difference being that I'm not getting the content of the article printed.
This has only started a couple of days ago. I do not have this issue with any other publication, yet this problem doesn't exist with other browsers.

I don't have a WSJ account to test... Here is some general advice:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
This will open a window listing the site's cookies, which you can remove individually.
Then try reloading the page and logging back in. Does that help?

How to resolve formatting issue when eprint from an iPad to Officejet 4500

Why does ical print out starting tuesday?

Why does ical print out staring the week on tuesday?
Maybe the week starts one day later for the Yosemite dev team, but certainly not in my neck of the woods.
The actual print out also looks nothing like the new matt and 'flat' graphic style of Yosemite.
I suggest you start on monday next week and sort these issues out.
Sunny

For many people that is the correct option. If you think it should be different, tell Apple, as they aren't listening here.

ICal printing assistance with irregular weekly calendar

I use iCal for my calendar app and am looking for printing assistance.
My work week is Tuesday through Saturday from 9AM to 6PM each day. What I am trying to do is find an application that will allow me to print each week on an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper where Tuesday through Saturday are shown across the top of the page and the hours from 9AM to 6PM are broken out in 1/2 hour chunks down the left side of the page. I do not want Sunday or Monday to show on the page as they would consume page real estate. I would like to print my entire year in advance and use this as a hard copy calendar that will show existing regular appointments while also providing space for me to add new appointments as they come in.
I can't seem to get iCal to print this way. I am looking for either a new calendar app that will import iCal data and support this print format or a printing app that can work with iCal data that supports the print format that I need.
Any suggestions out there? I've started looking at a few apps but this isn't the type of functionality that is listed in the program description.
Greg

hi gregbr
I wanted to do a similar thing as I like to see my calendars on my office wall at a glance
i have an imac and an ipad, i installed an app on the ipad as i sync the calendars on the computer and ipad, this one is called Calprint. i can print these calendars easily so this may be an option. i would definitely ask the app developers if an app is capable of doing what you want though before you get it. hope have been of some help and hope you find what you are looking for
