Image Shifts When Using Shared Printer

OS 10.6.8
Acrobat Pro 9.5.1
Printer: Canon Pixma 4800 ip4800
As far as I know, all drivers are up to date.
Printer is connected to an iMac and is set to allow sharing.
When printing a .pdf from another Mac (wirelessly via AirPort), the image is shifted slightly (approx 3/8") to the right and down on the printed sheet, cropping content.
All other remote printing is OK (including from other Adobe CS5 applications). I can also remote print the .pdf correctly using Apple's Preview application. Printing is also OK if printed from the iMac that the printer is connected to. Only time there is an issue is: Shared printing a .pdf using Acrobat.

Dear Larry,
Thanks for reporting the problem. You mentioned that page content is getting shifted by around 3/8 inches when printed using Mac Airprint using Acrobat which resulted in clipping of some of the content and other applications print fine.
Could you please pass on the same pdf to me as well? Although, it doesnot look dependent on any particular pdf but I would like to analyze certain behavior with the pdf you are using.
Please also confirm that you have not printed with "None" pagescaling option when you observed this.

Printing dark when using shared printer

I am having problems getting Lightroom 2 to print correctly when printing to a shared Epson 4000.
When printing to the 4000 as a local printer everything works as it should. But when I try to print to the same printer, with the same settings as a shared printer in a small network the prints turn out too dark and with colour casts.
Using epson profiles and pointing lightroom to the correct profile. Setting printer driver correctly (when i print the from photoshop CS2 it prints correctly, even when using a shared printer).
Epson 4000 using the latest 3.09 driver. OSX 10.4.10 on imac G5.
Any help appriciated, strange that everything works great on a local printer but not on the same printer when shared over the network (printersharing in OSX)
Am certain I have profile selection and printer driver settings correct ( after all it works from photoshop and locally).

Coercion problem when using Shared Variable

I have a curious coercion problem when using Shared Variables. I want to share the state of a State Machine, which is an enum saved as a control (typedef) called TYPE State (see attached). I create a shared variable called State and define it as a Custom Control, using the just-mentioned typedef. So far, so good. I've attached three simple VIs -- the first one, Init State, simply wires a constant to the input of the Shared Variable to initialize it -- the wired constant is, of course, defined by the typedef. However, the Get State and Set State, meant to wire an indicator (for reading the state) or control (for setting it), develop coercion dots when wired into the Shared Variable. Why? How do I get rid of the dot? [I suppose I could abandon my typedef and custom control, but the beauty of typedefs and custom controls is that it "enforces" rules, lets you use enums for clarity, keeps the code "honest", etc. -- I'd hate to give that up just to get rid of a dot!].
On a related note, the code seems to work. This is much too simplistic to do anything, but if you open Set State and Get State, set the state to anything, run it (it immediately stops, of course), then run Get State, you'll see the chosen state appear in the indicator. So it does appear to work. The "error" (coercion dot) may, I suppose, be a "bug" in Labview because it can't figure out the mapping of the (very simple!) Custom Control, but if so, I hope it gets fixed quickly!

Hello Bob,
I am also seeing this behavior, I will escalate this question to our LabVIEW developers and post again here no later than next Tuesday, November 27th as National Instruments will be closed for the remainder of this week.
If this issue does turn into a product suggestion, I would suspect the workaround would to live with the coersion dot for the time being.
Enjoy the holiday

Smartform font spacing Issue when using SAP printer name

Hi Friends,
I am facing some spacing issues when printing a form using SAP printer name. If I use LOCL then the output comes perfectly but when I use the SAP printer name the space between characters are getting widened and so the alignment of each column goes wayward. I suspect it could be due to the device type but not sure which seeting controls this. There is a similar problem in the logo as well. When using LOCL the logo comes out good but when using the printer name the quality is not good and becomes pixelised. Have any of you faced similar issues? Can you provide some guidance or pointers for the solution.
Device type of LOCL : ZSAPWIN
Device type of SAP printer name : ZHPLJ5
CPI is defined in smartform as 10.
Please let me know if you need more information.
Thanks,
Praveen

Hi,
This problem occurs because the printer driver for both the printers are different,
I suggest you use Local printer only or configure any other printer with printer diver in SAP as SAPWIN.
Regards,
Bharat.

Printer Driver Problem? Page margins shift when using paper tray vs. manual feed

I am printing to an Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS. The printed page and page margins are PERFECT (WYSIWYG; "What you see is what you get") when printing either to: (a) the MANUAL FEED TRAY of the Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS; or (b) PDF to view on screen.
HOWEVER, when printing to the LaserWriter using the (ordinary/usual) paper cassette (you know, the thing that holds the 200+ sheeets of blank paper), two margin problems occur: (1) the uppermost portion of page content is shifted down 3/4" (maybe closer to 11/16") vs. its position on the manually fed paper. This, in turn, causes the botttom portion of the page content to run off below the printed page. (2) The "unprintable region" on the right edge of the paper expands from 1/8" with the manually fed paper to 7/16" when using the paper cassette. This shows up as an extra 5/16" (7/16" - 1/8" = 5/16") of white space/missing page content on the right edge.
The problem is consistent and reproduceable. It happens with cassette fed output from Safari, Word 2011, Acrobat X, TurboTax, Quicken Essentials for Mac, and TextEdit.
BIG problem when printing long documents whose content and margin settings I cannot control (e.g., third-party documents from Acrobat, anything from Quicken Essentials or TurboTax, pages from Safari, etc.). The only workaround is to feed everything manually (UGGH!).
I suspect the printer driver is faulty since the problem detailed above happens with so many applications. Is there a way to edit a plist (using the application/utility "Pref Setter" or similar) to overide the driver's margin settings?
I believe the print driver is "Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS v2015.105" (from Sytem Prefences->Print&Scan->Options and Supplies->Driver).
Any help greatly appreceated.

Thanks! It works perfectly! I even saved my original "oversize" document by printing it to PDF with the scaling so the problem is permanently cured, at least for this document.

Has anyone had issues with poor image quality when using lightroom to process raw images from Canon 7dmk2

Hi everyone..
..I have been having image quality issues when using Lightroom to process raw files from a 7d mk2... They are all soft with poor clarity.....tonight in despair I tried processing them using canon's software and they are totally different..."much better"
anyone else had similar problems....Andy

I have a 7D2 and have not had what I interpret as poor image quality that has anything to do with the camera.
Can you post a screenshot of what you’re seeing and what specifically you don’t like? Maybe there is something you can do differently or at least there may be an explanation for what you’re seeing.
And if you have a raw image that you wouldn’t mind sharing in a public forum, upload to http://www.dropbox.com/ then post a public share link to it in a reply, here.
In other words post a screenshot of what you see in LR, another of what you see using DPP, and a link to the raw file you’re processing.

Images shift when jumping to anchors

I have a file using manual menus connected to anchors. In the browser when I click on any menu item one of my images shifts. It's a patterned wall paper that must meet fairly close to look right. The shift of about 3/8" spoils the effect. I've deleted and reset the anchors but the shift persists. This errors previousy didn't occur in this file. I've made some change it seems which has created this shift. I deleted my broswer cache hoping that might fix the problem but it didn't help. I've checked where my images are pinned to and how they are set to fit in their space and it appears correct.(I am using tiling) As an aside I've begun to wonder if anchors are really a work in progress, I've noticed other issues with them that didn't seem to make sense.

Aish,
I'm not able to provide a URL. All access to the site is under an NDA and
is hosted on a private server with encrypted access other than my local
machine. If you could tell me if this is a known issue then I can hand it
off to one of their developers to look into, It would be helpful to have
some ideas about what component could be the issue and if its possible to
get access to fix it?
I don't know the steps I took that created the error. The file did work but
began appearing I believe after I began fine tuning the anchors and moving
some of the content. That's all I know. As I mentioned it all looks
correct. The settings match another copy of this same file I have. The copy
with my new edits has this error of shifting images and at the level I am
able to understand it all appears correct.
Cordially,
Chuck Schutz

Color shift when using save for web

Hello,
I am converting my psd files to jpegs using "save for web". I am noticing that the colors are shifting from the original after saving for web. The color shift does not happen if I just convert the psd files to jpegs by using "save as". The psds have a profile of RGB1998. I am using CS3 and my monitor is color calibrated.
Do I need to convert the psd documents to sRGB first before I go to "save for web"?
The preview doesn't look any different if I check ICC profile in the save for web window. I have been told that you are not supposed to embed the ICC profile in the document when saving for web because most monitors are untagged.
Anyway I am wondering if I have to accept a color shift when saving for web or is there something I can do to get the saved for web jpegs to more closely match the original psd?
Thanks a lot for your help.

I think the reason why this question is asked often is because the FAQ entry is pretty lame and incomplete, especially for Mac users that by default have a color managed browser and by default have a screwed up rendering mechanism for untagged images.
Depending on your version of Photoshop, you can convert to sRGB before or during the Save for Web operation.

You convert to sRGB for the systems that do not fully support color management.
and...
You include the sRGB ICC profile for the systems that do support color management.
Doing both covers your bum in most situations. You may choose to omit the ICC profile if you are working on common interface graphics that do not require strict color management. The ICC profile adds a few kilobytes to the file size that are not necessary on lesser graphic elements on a web page.

Office 2004 crashes in Leopard when using File print option.

Office 2004 apps all crash when I try to print using File>print but they will print if I just use the printer icon. Any ideas?? I have updated Office to 11.3.9 and uninstalled and reinstalled the printer. BTW, the printer is an HP Laserjet All-in-one model 3330. Everything else I've tried seems to print ok -- Safari, Adobe, Pages.
I would like to upgrade three other machines but I'm waiting until I get this print problem resolved.
Thanks.

Well I feel sort of stupid, I was using the HP driver. Switching to either of the drivers supplied with Leopard fixed this problem. Thanks.

Part of image shifts when inserting footer

Okay, when I go to insert a footer into a document, a portion - not all - of that document shifts. The document is an exported pdf from ArcMap which contains several thousand elements. All elements appear to remain in their original position with a single class of elements shifting by between 0.1 and 0.2" towards the bottom of the document.
I have never had this happen before when using Adobe 7.x, but now that I am using Adobe Acrobat X standard, this problem suddenly crops up.
Any help would be amazing as I am at my witts end...
Thanks,
John

Use the forum for Adobe Acrobat.

Bug Report: Images broke when using get_blob_file_src and not authenticated

Hi,
it looks like that images which are retrieved with a
apex_util.get_blob_file
call are broken when the user is not authenticated. If the generated image URL is directly called in the browser, it shows a 404 Not found error with a "Invalid Session" in the error log file on the Apache.
The above image URL is generated when using the apex_util.get_blob_file_src function call. If the new IMAGE format mask (eg. in an IRR) is used it seems to be fine, because that generates a apex_util.get_blob call.
Testcase:
1) http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=17201:3 (That's the sample application with page set to "doesn't need authentication")
-> Image column is broken
2) Login with demo/patricks_demo_workspace
3) Go again to page 3 (Products)
-> Image column is displayed correctly
Thanks for looking into that

Hi Scott,
when I woke up today it also came into my mind that it may has something to do with the referenced P6_PRODUCT_IMAGE in the
apex_util.get_blob_file_src('P6_PRODUCT_IMAGE',p.product_id)call which references a page item on a non-public page.
I think apex_util.get_blob_file_src or better apex_util.get_blob_file shouldn't really care if the "definition" of how the BLOB looks like and where to read the information from is on a non-public page. Because it doesn't read or set actual data it just reads the definition, so it shouldn't be a security issue.
Another question is, if it's so useful to reference a page item to get this BLOB information and not directly being able to specify this information as parameters in the apex_util.get_blob_file_src call. I think I also raised that during the 3.1 beta, because in case if you just want to display a BLOB you still have to create somewhere a page item of type "file browser" to being able to reference it in the get_blob_file_src call. Direct passing of the vales would also be more transparent and self documenting.
BTW, the above code is an example of the "Sample Application" and wasn't made up by me, so probably a lot of people are using this technique to get rid of there own blob download procedures.
Have a nice weekend

Printing colors not correct when using non printer software

I am using a new CANON MX882. When I print using the Canon easy photo software the print turn out perfect. However when I print from Aperture or Photoshop Elements the pictures turn out with the colors blown out and overexposed. I have the lates drivers availabe from Canon which they say is compatible works with 10.7. I have tried using the printer manament or the software and it doesn't make any difference. Any thoughts on whats next? I am wasting all sorts of paper trying to figure this out.
thanks
Chris

I don't have Aperture or PSE but I do have Photoshop CS5 and with that application the best settings are to let the printer manage the colours. I have some grabs from the PS5 print dialog for your reference.
From the PS5 print dialog, from the Color Management menu the Color Handling is set to "Printer Manages Color".
When you select Print and the normal print dialog appears (or you open Print Settings from the PS5 print dialog) select the Color Matching menu and ensure it is set to Canon Color Matching.
And the last thing to check is the Quality & Matching menu for the Canon printer. The colour profiles for the printer are based on different paper stocks. So it is important that in the Media Type menu you select the type of paper being used and you also want to select High Quality.

Slicing image issue when using "save for web"

Keep in mind I am a newbi to photoshop and these forums. I am currently having an issue with using the slice tool when trying to save the image in html format. I have my image completed and when I use the "save for web" feature, it comes up just fine. Then I click the slice tool on the tool bar on the left, and try to drag over the area that I want to slice and it wont work. Currently, every time I try to use the save for when feature, the new box pops up and shows my image with a 1 and a symbol on the top left of the image like the whole image is already made into a slice. The only thing I can do is left click and hold to drag the transparent box to where I want to slice the image, and when I let go, the image does not slice. Any help would be great!

Completely wrong workflow. See the online help on the slice tool.

Segfault when using shared library

Hi,
I have a little problem. I'm using a shared library in my program. It works fine under windows, but when I run my program under linux or solaris I get a segfault.
When using the same library from a C/C++ program under soloris or linux I have no problem.
Does someone have an idea ??
Thanks.
Vincent

This is Java related ?
Windows may not be as strict about memory pointers....
Try running something like "BoundsChecker" against a debug version of your code.
Years ago I used to use that, to detect pointer problems.
You may be trying to access the contents of NULL in C/C++, or trying to read from a memory location
which is no longer valid... eg. freed memory, or you return a pointer to a local variable to a calling routine.
That stack space would be destroyed when the function returns, so you'd be trying to access memory
that is no longer "valid".
regards,
Owen

Problem with page size when using redirected printer

I have a customer who connects to another customer's network via VPN, then logs into and RDS server running Server 2012.
This customer then opens an Excel file and tries to print it out to a printer that is local to her and of course shows as redirected when looking at Devices and Printers in her login on the RDS server.
The problem is that when going to File / Print on the Excel document, the page size is listed as Custom Size and if you try to select any other size from the list, it won't accept it and stays at custom size. If she selects another redirected local printer,
she can choose whatever page size she wants.
This is not selecting the paper size. She can change that on either redirected printer. So when she is trying to print an Excel file on legal size paper, the print comes out reduced as if it is trying to print on letter size paper even though legal size
paper is selected.
I hope my description is clear enough. If not, please let me know and I'll try to explain further. So I'm trying to find how to fix this one redirected printer (a Brother MFC-7860DW) so that she can change the page size so when the document prints it occupies
the full sheet of legal size paper.
Jonathan

Is there is a difference in printer driver for working and non-working redirected printers? If yes, can you match it?
Do you see the same behavior if you use Generic Text Only inbox driver?
Thanks
