Imposed books only print one copy

Greetings,
I have upgraded to CS5 and Quite Imposing software. Quite Imposing is quite nice and CS5 is great to work with.
I have one last hurdle : Imposed books only print one book copy on 8.5 x 15, 28 duplexed sheets in this cvase. After the first book is complete, the red attention light on the HP 4200 Duplex starts flashing, the message is "Tray one must be loaded with standard letter 8.5 x 11 inch paper."
The problem is that I print duplex on 8.5 x 14 paper.
I have tried every selection I can find but can't make 8.5 x 14 be the default size now that I've upgraded.
How do I instruct the printer to stay with 8.5 x 14 after its printed the first one at that size?
Thanks,
Garrett

Peter !
I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one with this problem.
Now it has occurred differently :
One sheet letter size .indd > export to .pdf > printed one copy then printer started blinking and asked to change drawers, this time the paper size change requested was from letter to legal, rather than visa versa .
I then pushed the green check button on the printer and it asked if I wished to return to drawer 2 letter size, I pushed green check and it resumed printing.
Thanks for your time, I am attempting to help so I can be proud of myself,
Garrett

Imposed document only prints one copy at a time

Hi,
Printing a 100 page 25 sheet imposed 8.5 x 14 Acrobat document is limited to only one copy. At the end of the first copy printing; printer stops and requests letter-size paper, for drawer one,
printer default is set for 8.5 x 14 and first print ran from drawer 2.
Older CS 2 imposed files, imposed by Lowly Apprentice, still print multiple copies on HP 4200 duplex.
OS 10.5.8 iMac duo core intel.
ID CS5 book > flight test clear > .pdf > open with Acrobat 9.3.2 > impose with Quite Imposing > save imposed pdf > prints only one at a time
then printer stops and asks for different paper in different drawer.

Hi Garrett,
I'm glad your back in production. As for the issue you're having with the printer you'll have to contact HP or Adobe.
Quite Imposing Plus doesn't Print, it just imposes the PDF pages and Acrobat is the Printer.
I'll send this off to Engineering to see if they have any other thought why it might be doing this. However, if all the pages are the same size and the orientation is the same, I've never heard of Acrobat and HP not printing correctly.
cheers,
Charles

Subject: One copy only
Hi Charles, I have a second printer related symptom you might wish to know. Printing is limited to only one copy. At the end of the first printing; printer stops and requests letter-size paper, for drawer one, printer default is set for 8.5 x 14, first print ran from drawer 2. Older imposed files from CS 2, not qi, still print multiple copies on HP 4200 duplex, slow yet reliable, and repairable. OS 10.5.8 iMac duo core intel. CS5 with Acrobat 9.3.2 Luckily, I'm probably the smallest international publisher on planet earth. Not so luckily, with eleven years of untrained habits. Anyway, I figured I should run this by you first. Thanks for putting me back in production. Cheers, Garrett PS > The auto rotate and center function on/off selectors are grouped as one, Acrobat print dialog; result in preview is vertical instead of landscape, one page rather than two.

Networked HP Laserjet 1022 only prints one copy at a time!!

Hi, I am using a HP Laserjet 1022 printer connected to a Windows Network. Although the exact driver is not listed I get around using the closest driver in the list. Under Tiger everything was fine, after upgrading to Leopard I can only print one copy of a document at a time. When I put any number of copies in the box only one copy is printed.
Thank you in advance.

read this thread here and my solutions about the 1020.
The driver is also for 1022.
Works great with leopard and 1020, needs to work perfect with leopard and 1022.
Download and do as I describe.

Printer will only print one copy no matter how many I put in.

Hi Im now using Windows 7 Word 2010 and since then I can only ever print one copy of my document no matter how many I ask for. Has this happened to anyone else. I have tried using a newer printer in the hopes it was a printer communication problem
but still only printing one document. Was fine using XP but not this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. In business its very frustrating to have to keep going into the print section and ask repeatedly to print for a letter to get the
copies I need.

My laser Jet 1320 will only print one copy, even when asked to print mutiples. Any thoughts?

I have a Laser Jet 1320. I have windows Vista (I know!!!) It will only print one document despite being instructed to print 2 or more. I have tried re-installing the drivers but to no avail. Does anyone have any solution possibilities. Thanks

Then use the latest solution!

Can only print one copy at a time in AppleWorks since upgrading to Tiger

Since upgrading to Tiger 10.4.3, (now using version10.4.6) and AppleWorks 6.2.9, I cannot print more than one copy of my document using either of my Epson printers, a R200 and a C86. I did not have this problem with Panther and AW 6.
Apple techs said to reinstalled AW, did not help. Then did a complete archive and reinstall of Tiger, no help, then created a new preference folder, no help.
I found by trial and error that my Grammarian spell and grammar program by Linguisoft uses an input method to be active in order to correct AW documents. I sent them an email and their reply was, this is a bug in Mac OS X 10.4.x (all versions as of Nov, 2005) Specifically, if an input method is active, you will be unable to edit the number of copies or page range values in the dialog versions of Print and Page Setup. This is not a problem in the sheet versions of Print and Page Setup.
Certain older applications still use these dialogs (i.e., AppleWorks) instead of the more appropriate sheet equivalents. To clarify the difference, the sheet versions are "attached" to the actual document you are printing (take a look at, say, TextEdit), while the dialog versions appear modally in front of all document windows in applications that use them.
I wrote a three page letter to Apple and received a call from them, it seems that for now no upgrades to correct this problem is in the works, so for now I will have to make my corrections to all documents that I am working on, then change the input method in Grammarian and print my copies, then go back and make Grammarian active again.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this problem or am I the only one?

Hello DaisyMay,
You're quite welcome. Very glad to hear it helped!
Yet I'd like to mention the true ones of merit are the contributors of the original Japanese thread. I've just summarized and translated a bit.
Regarding why it takes so long to fix this bug/flaw, I suspect that it is because it won't affect the majority of American users who do not use input method at all, and besides, it seemingly affects only Carbon API, that Apple Computer Inc. is liable to neglect lately.
However, input method is a vital piece in CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) languages, and any other languages that use more than 256 characters, and also quite a few Carbon applications are still in service, so for us (Japanese, e.g.), this bug/flaw is quite unacceptable.
It's new for me to know a non-CJK program, Grammarian, uses input method. Now I understand you'd see this bug/flaw unacceptable as well!
At least one of the contributors of Japanese thread said he let Apple Computer Japan know this problem via official telephone support channel. Also other said that Ergosoft Corp., the maker of EGWord, stated that this is a known-issue of OSX10.4 and they can do nothing but wait for Apple to fix it. Ergosoft has been specialized to Macintosh platform since 1984, so it's quite unlikely they had not reported this problem to Apple via developer channel.
After all, I think Apple knows this problem, whether a bug or a flaw.
Well, possibly, it might not be sufficient for an end-user to point out the problem via Apple's telephone support channel...
In such case, you may try this form -
http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/
In my humble opinion, they should shortly fix this, and meanwhile they should promptly publish the user-proposed work-around methods as a Knowledge Base article.
Have beautiful May,

Windows PC can only print one copy at a time

I've got a PC connected to a Mac printer via Bonjour. It works fine, except for this new quirk we discovered today... when attempting to print 30 copies of a PDF, only 1 copy would print. Any suggestions (other than hitting Print 30 times in a row)?

Do you have a Brother printer by chance?

Hp laserjet 5550n forgets jobs, can only print one copy of a doc at a time

We're using a Laserjet 5550n in a small office running Mac OS X 10.3.9 to 10.4.6.
We're encountering countless problems when trying to print, and I'm pretty sure I've ruled out the computer setup as the culprit (reset printing system, emptied CUPS caches, repaired permissions, used 'printer setup repair', etc ).
Whenever I try to print multiple copies of the same page it says
*Unable to store job at printer
*Insufficient disk space for this job'
However, storing jobs is switched off anyway!
Another huge problem is that the printer simply 'forgets' large printing jobs. CUPS (at http://127.0.0.1:631) says "printer processing, "Ready to print."", and then just goes back to 'idle'.
When you expect the printed pages to come out nothing happens, and the printer hasn't even started blinking.
We've had this printer for 16 months now, and the problems started just when the warranty had run out.
The 5550n has no additional memory than what it came with
DIMM Slot : 128 MB DDR
DIMM Slot 2: Empty
CARD SLOT 1: 32 MB F/W FLASH
I've tried upgrading the firmware to the latest version (20060403 07.009.0), to no avail.
Is there a more detailed log somewhere that I could try looking at to figure out what's going on? The printer web interface Event Log is useless without more detailed explanation.
The printer doesn't give any error messages (though at some point in the past it did say things like "card slot not initalized" or "49.xxxx PRINTER ERROR". I then reinitialised the memory I think ( the 49.xxx error disappeared after that).
I read somewhere about bad RAM or corrupted flash memory. Is there a way to find out if that's the cause?
Many thanks for any ideas.

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.

Printer only printing one document at a time....

I have a Deskjet 990cxi and it is only printing one document at a time. I've tried changing the settings in the printer menu, and no matter what I do, it still only prints one copy of the document.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, and everything.
Just so you know:
XP Service Pack 3
HP Deskjet 990cxi
Connected by USB
and---get this---there's NO ERROR MESSAGE.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

This is caused by the failure of one of your cartridges. Remove the black cartridge and print a test page. Does the printer print at normal speed? Is so the black cartridge was the issue and should be replaced. If not then put the black cartridge back in and remove the color cartridge and print test page. If the printer now prints normal speed the color cartridge was at fault and needs to be replaced.

Appleworks will only print one page at a time, please help!

hi there ~
no matter how many times I ask the printer to print ALL pages, it will only print one at a time, so I have to manually print page 18, 17, etc....
Could this be because the pages are arranged left to right? that would seem strange.
also, I cannot find a function to re-arrange the pages. for example, i want to re-organize to make page 18 at the front as page 1. I just don't get it though I've searched the program.
THANKS SO MUCH!

Hi td,
Welcome to AppleDiscussions and the AppleWorks forum.
"no matter how many times I ask the printer to print ALL pages, it will only print one at a time, so I have to manually print page 18, 17, etc...."
My memory says the same as Yvan's.
If the printer dialogue has a checkbox labeled "Collate", make sure the box is checked, even if you are printing a single copy. If memory serves, this suggestion was made in connection with HP printers.
A second possible solution is to specify the page range when printing this document (or others that exhibit this problem). (eg. for a 25 page document specify printing From page 1 To page 25.) You might try specifying p. 1 to p. 99 for any document under 100 pages, although I don't know what effect this would have for a 5 page doc.
regards,
Barry

InDesign CS5 only prints one page at a time.

InDesign CS5 only prints one page at a time. No multiple copies. Each page in a document has to be printed one at a time. I didn't have this problem with any version before this. No matter what I do, change settings, etc. I still have the same outcome. How do I work around this problem so I can print a 5 copies of a 3 page document without having to do each copy of each page one at a time.

Sounds like a printer driver issue. Can you export to PDF and print that correctly?

I have an all in one with wifi. It will only print one or one and a half pages

My printer will only print one or one and a half pages at a time.

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I noticed that your HP Envy 4500 printer will only print one or one and a half pages, on Windows 8.1. I am happy to look into this printing issue for you! Some questions for you: What happens when you try print multiple copies? Copying Documents.Do you see any error messages on the front panel of the printer when it stops printing? Does the paper get stuck inside the printer? What happens if you print from NotePad?
In the meantime, please try the HP Print and Scan Doctor, and let me know what happens! Hope to hear from you soon! “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

HP SimplePass - Only Prints One Webcard

Recently upgraded to HP SimplePass Ver 6.0.100.276 on my laptop using Windows 7 (service pack 1) Works fine except that when I try to print all my stored webcards, it only print one.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Rich,
Welcome to the HP Forum.
It is not your printer, it is not your Operating System, it is the SimplePass software - this feature has not worked for about the last three versions. I suspect it never will do so again.
Someone on the forum (not one of our Experts) did make the claim that if you have Norton (some paid version) that you can print out the webcards in .csv format. I don't use Norton and cannot comment further. You could look into that if this is of interest.
Easy Workaround:
Snip an Image of the webcards in SimplePass,
save the Image as a .jpg,
throw the Image into Paint,
and add text.
Print that.
Consider storing the Image (and the paper copy) somewhere OTHER than on the C drive and in the drawer next to your computer.
