Image getting resized in website, won't print correctly. Help!

videoimagination.com
Yes, it's a template. Yes, it's hideous. No, I'll never do it
again.
Too late.
Anyway.
If you click the "Families" button on the top of the page,
then click on "Order Form" or "Film Gauge" links, my files open,
and there's the image.
Except...The film gauge chart must print actual size.
They're both empty html pages with a jpeg image inserted.
when I print the jpeg images from any editing program,
they're hunky-dory.
As soon as I insert the images into the empty html page, they
don't print actual size.
And I can't figure out how to make the order form default
print to landscape.
Any help appreciated.
I teach 9th grade in real life, so please use small words and
type slooooowly. It's been a long week.
Thanks in advance.

forget inches.
The image will print at the pixel size it is. If you want it
larger- make it
a larger pixel dimension in an image editor.

Can't force landscape printing in any practical way.
Adapt and overcome- turn the image 90 degrees and enlarge it
so it will fit
standard paper. Standard us paper would be about 612px by
792px. You have
to go smaller to deal with default margin settings in the
printer.
question- there is tons of scripting on the order form page
to test for
flash player, but there's no .swf in them.
Making the order form a .pdf would be okay probably.
If you make the images oversize, it depends on how the user's
Print Dialog
Box is set on what will happen. If it's set to print actual
size, extra
sheets of paper will come out. If it's set to "size to fit
paper" it will
shink to fit one page.
There are also absolute paths to your hard drive.

When I try and print an "Approach Plate, or Departure" from ForeFlight to my Epson Stylus NX430 using AirPrint the image is resized. How can I print without it resizing. I want to have the plate print in the original size so I can use it.

When I try and print an "Approach Plate, or Departure" from ForeFlight to my Epson Stylus NX430 using AirPrint the image is resized. How can I print without it resizing. I want to have the plate print in the original size so I can use it. Is this an Apple, Epson, or Foreflight Issue? I just purchased the printer so I can return it and get a different model or brand. I spoke to Epson and the suggestions given did not resolve the issue. I have cut the paper down to the size of the plate roughly 5.5x8 and it still try's to print at 8.5x11. I have also requested help through ForeFlights Tech help but have yet to receive an answer.
Please help!

It varies based on what you ordered and whether it is in stock or has to be assenbled and shipped from China. Your email conformation should give an estimate of when the items are expected to be shipped or available for pick up if you are having it sent to a local Apple Store.

Video Image gets resized

I am trying to develop a chat application which has the webcam feature. I am using JMF for this purpose. I am creating this as an applet. The first time when the page loads and the user clicks the start button to start the video, the webcam starts and the video is displayed in a small area of the applet.
The problem is that, if the user clicks on any other buttons on the applet, the image gets resized. It scales itself in the horizontal direction. I have no clue as to why is this happeneing. I have tried using GridBagLayout, but still the problem persists.
Any help in this matter will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Sharad

This is the code which I am using. The start button is to start the video. After the video is started, clicking on the next button will resize the video. The next button loads another image on to the applet. The Image is on the left side and the video is being displayed on the right side. Clicking on the next button calls the class PresentControl.java.

When I try to print a photo downloaded from Facebook in iPhoto, I can't get the size I specify to print correctly. Example: 5x7 prints smaller than 5x7. What do I do to solve this problem?

When I try to print a photo downloaded from Facebook in iPhoto, I can't get the size I specify to print correctly. Example: 5x7 prints smaller than 5x7. What do I do to solve this problem?

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

Canon IP7250 - Color won't print - Please help

I have a Canon IP7250, two day ago, my printer showed me error C000. I resolved this error, but now my printer won't printing in colour. Black working properly. I tried many times to cleaning a toner in mainteace. When I go to "print head alignment" then shows error 2500. ? In nozzle check black colour is excellent but no other colors on paper.
Please, help me.
Thanks.

Again, the username/password, would either be your logon username/password or your "root" username/password if you have enabled it.
Another option would be to update your CUPS software. Multi-functional printers are usually "tricky" to get full-featured drivers for. It's possible that a newer version for this particular printer may exist with an update.
Still another option (and possibly a better one) would be to download and install the latest Gutenprint printer drivers. These were formally known as Gimp-Print drivers. (ref: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3)

Netflix website won't load correctly on new Macbook pro.

The Netflix WEBSITE isn't loading correctly on my new macbook pro. The < > arrows used to scroll through movies on the homepage don't seem to be working. When you click/hover over them nothing happens. Also, the title and description box that usually appears when you hover your mouse over a movie isn't showing up either...and lastly the box where you can filter the movies you want to see in a specific category "Ex. "Dark comedies, Romantic comedies, Foregin Comedies etc.." isn't showing up.
Im assuming this is an issue with either safari or the macbook itself because I don't know what else it could be. I tried clearing all cookies,
cache, and history but it didn't help. The movies are streaming fine it's just the website that messed up. All other websites seem to be working fine though.

Probably a Java issue. Try another browser and also try loading Java from www.java.com. BTW, the current version won't run properly in Safari, so you'll probably end up running FireFox anyway.

HP Officejet Pro L7590 won't print correctly after it sits a few days Windows Vista USB connection

I have a HP Officejet Pro L7590 All In One. It all of a sudden will not print correctly after it sits a few days. I purchased a new black/yellow printhead recently and it did print well for about a week. If it sits a few days, it acts up again. All I have to do to fix it is take out the yellow/black printhead clean with sterile water on a q tip the printhead, put it back in, and walla it prints again until the next time I want to use the printer, and the same thing again. Today I printed out some pictures after not using the printer for 5 days, the pics had large vertical stripes in them, the stripes have colors in them. I cleaned the printhead and it worked perfectly. Any ideas. I have replaced the black cartride, and the yellow recently.
Thanks for any help

Rocky8,
This is a little outside our area of printing, but I'll try and help you the best I can. My question for you is the printer showing up under the USB menu in Parallels. If it's not showing up then you need to determine why the USB connection isn't showing up in your Parallels USB menu. This could be a couple of issues, but the one that I think might be happening is the version of the USB port your using. Can you verify that you're not connecting the printer via a USB 3.0 port. Try plugging into one of your other USB ports to see if the printer will show up in the parallels USB menu.

thanks for your input

Hello pcmtgrl
Which model of the Officejet 8500A series do you have? Typically you can find it inside the printer where you change the ink cartridges. Example: A910g, A910a, etc.
Has anything changed recently since the problem started? Is the printer plugged into a wall outlet or a surge protector? Do you have the latest firmware installed? I also suggest running the HP Hardware Diagnostic Utility. Let me know if it finds anything out.
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" to those that help solve your problems.
When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.

A particular Apple Symbols glyph won't print correctly

I'm using ID CS under OSX 10.4.11. When I use a glyph from Apple Symbols (Unicode 21AA, a right-pointing arrow), it shows up okay in InDesign and also when I export to PDF. But when I print to a black and white laser (HP 5200L and HP 1200) it shows up as a rectangular box.
So I did a test. I tried a heart from Apple Symbols (Unicode 2665), and that did print okay.
In the Print Dialog box I have chosen Graphics > Font > Download Complete, and ticked the box called Download PPD fonts.
Any suggestions why this particular symbol doesn't print correctly?

I have revisited this problem to find out exactly where the problem lies. If anyone is interested to try to replicate the problem, you can download a small file called "Print Test" from here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?xz1dzxfxk09
The file is only a few lines of text with the relevant symbols. There are three symbols: a heart, an arrow, and a tent.
1. When I print with InDesign CS, the arrow and tent come out as vertical rectangles.
2. When I export as PDF and print, everything is OK.
3. When I copy the InDesign text, past in TextEdit and print, all is OK.
So it appears that InDesign CS is not printing certain symbols properly. Any suggestions as to why that would be?

Custom cursor using image gets resized bigger

I have created a custom cursor using the following code:
ClassLoader cl = this.getClass().getClassLoader();
Toolkit tk = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
Image im = tk.getImage( cl.getResource("images/wallcursor.gif"));
Cursor Custom_Cursor = tk.createCustomCursor(im,new Point(9,9),"Drawing wall");
draftGrid.setCursor( Custom_Cursor );The cursor is loaded and it works, however - the image I use for the cursor is resized so it gets too big. Any clues on why this happens?
btw; draftGrid is one of my own classes that extends JComponent.

Thanks for your replies guys.
I tried your code KPSeal, and it works in resizing the cursor image back to its original size. However, a gray square of size 32,32 (which is returned by getBestCursorSize()) is shown round the cursor.
Here is the updated code (yours hade some minor bugs)
Image im = tk.getImage( cl.getResource("images/wallcursor.gif"));
try {
       tracker.addImage(im, 0 );
       tracker.waitForID(0);
} catch( InterruptedException ie ) {
       ie.printStackTrace();
int w = im.getWidth(this);
int h = im.getHeight(this);
int pw = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getBestCursorSize(w, h).width;
int ph = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getBestCursorSize(w, h).height;
System.out.println("w="+w+", h="+h+" - pw="+pw+", ph="+ph);
Image cim = createImage(pw, ph);
cim.getGraphics().drawImage(im,0,0, this);
Cursor Custom_Cursor = tk.createCustomCursor(cim,new Point(0,0),"Drawing wall");
draftGrid.setCursor( Custom_Cursor );The System.out.println statement prints: w=18, h=13 - pw=32, ph=32
If I try to do the createImage with w and h instead of pw and ph the same gray square (32,32) is created, and in addition the cursor's size is too big which was the probem to begin with ...

Pdf file on website won't print now. Settings?

I've not had any problems, until now, printing pdf files from many websites. However, problems have come up.
I am told I had a virus affecting some of my accounts and Systweak Advanced Systems Optimizer, my protection sofware provider, adamantly denies a virus. Anyway, they made some changes in some settings and I wonder if they may have interfered with Adobe Reader (Latest version installed.)
It seems to affect multiple websites, at least three different ones just now.
Anyway, where do I start?
Oldern

Many thanks to Olderns for spending time with us and giving us remote access to his machine to debug this problem. This turned out to be a registry setting related to IE...
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\TabProcGrowth = 0
This is a setting was introduced with IE8 to control how many tab processes were created. IE8 has a default algorithm (when the registry key is not present) that limits the number of tab processes based on available RAM. Separate tab processes arecreated in order to sandbox 3rd extensions, i.e. to isolate them from the main IE process and other extensions, but IE8 does not create a process per tab as IE10 does because of performance considerations that were more relevant in the IE8 timeframe. IE8 also has a 32-bit parent IE process while IE10 has a 64-bit parent process.
So, while it made some sense to tell IE8 to not create any tab processes and run everything in the parent, this does not work well in IE10 which always has a 64-bit parent process (even if you run the 32-bit version) and therefore cannot load 32-bit extensions, Reader in this case.
While we don't know how this situation came about on the user's system, we suspect that it was either caused by a virus or by a system performance tool that might have made this change to try to make IE faster, something that might have made sense for IE8 but not for IE10.
If you encounter this problem, the solution is to remove the afformentioned registry setting and then close all IE processes and restart IE. However, only make this if you are comfortable using regedit to change registry settings because some registry settings (not this one) can create serious problems on a Windows system including causing it to no longer boot. Also, I would highly recommend creating a restore point before making any changes to your registry. Do this in the System control panel > Advanced System Settings > System Protection > Create... This will give you something that works to go back to if you somehow make a fatal change to your registry.

Envelopes won't print correctly to HP Color LaserJet 2550n

I have been having some printing issues since I set up our printer as a Bonjour printer with my AirPort Extreme Base Station. Ironically when I had our HP Color LaserJet 2550n set up as a networked printer on a LAN port of one of our Linksys routers my family had very few printing issues. It was in this configuration that I was able to print an envelope in Pages '08 without any problems. Now I can get the information to print, but if I put in a letter sized piece of paper to 'test' the information prints across the bottom of the page in correct format, but not in the correct orientation for a #10 envelope.
I have gone to page setup and changed the Paper Size to #10 envelope. This did not help. This is so frustrating since I was printing without issue when this printer was on a LAN port of our second Linksys router. I am now using Easy Envelopes from Ambrosia as a work around, but want to be able to print from within Pages '08, and not have to rely on Easy Envelopes or MS Word 2006. I am wondering if this has to do with the drivers that I had to use when I set up this printer on the USB port of my AirPort Extreme Base Station.

Well go figure. When I went to System Preferences/Print and Fax, and it showed two versions of my printer. The one with an accurate picture representing my printer, and one that used Generic Post Script drivers with a picture that did not look like my printer. So I uninstalled both printers, shut down my computer, did some things for awhile, restarted my computer, went to System Preferences/Print and Fax and clicked on the “+” to add a printer. The computer very quickly recognized up my printer with the correct picture for it. I added this printer, and went to Pages ’08 and it printed a #10 envelope without a hitch.
I think that what happened was that I recently did a reinstall of OS X Tiger, and as a part of that install I had a problem with the .DMG file I downloaded from HP’s web-site, and wonder if this is when the generic PS files were installed.
Anyway my printer seems to be working fine now, and maybe this will help someone with the same problem.

Pro 8: Forms button "Print" won't print! Help?

Hi ,
I made an button by choosing Forms/Forms tool/Button Tool and filled out color/text size etc and choose from the list: Actions/ Mouse Up/Add... and in the list I selected "File>Print..." So far all looks well. I save the file and select the hand tool and click my button but nothing happens. I have a printer and it works fine.
Any suggestions? I would prefer to have it print only the current page if possible.
I use Acrobat Pro 8 for Win.
Thanks!

I get the same result. That is strange. If I use ctrl-P, then the print window comes up. That is what I think you are expecting from the action option you have set. I have not been able to get it to work either in AA7. That seems strange. Bill

Hp laserjet 1012 won't print - need help

Nothing in spooler. Spooler cleared. Can't print.

My hp laserjet 1012 was printing very well for the last two years. Three days back, in the print I suddenly saw a big blank streak indicating that the printer cartridge may be exhausted. After that, it is not printing anymore on print command. Yellow light has been flashing all the time.So I went out and bought the printer cartridge recommended, namely, Q 2612A. I have put it in. Still it appears not to have gotten back to the green print mode.
Any comments/suggestions? Everything looks okay otherwise.
