In Design CS3 will not print landscape

I cannot get the print dialogue box to print in landscape even though landscape is highlighted. Any thoughts?

Check the updater and make sure you installed the updates for Photoshop CS3.
But most likely this is a configuration issue with your printer driver.
Many drivers do have settings that force black and white printing, overriding what the application sends to the driver.

CS3 will not print color pictures

Photo Shop will not print color pictures. It printed fine for over a year then just quit printing in color a few months ago. A work around was given by our Higher head Quarters but when printing this way the pictures do not print properly and the pictures can't be adjusted or modified any.
Machines having this problem are running Windows XP.
What are the proper setting for this program?
Do I need a software update?

InDesign, Acrobat CS3 will not print.

Help! Neither InDesign CS3 nor Acrobat 8 will print at all from my G5 PPC to a Canon 9000
Acrobat never has, but InDesign did until recently. Incidentally, InDesign CS2 does print, though it can't open CS3 documents.
All other CS3 programs print properly, and Preview will print the Acrobat docs.
Print monitor says it is printing with shimmering progress bar but no output.

Hello Nick.
Apologies if the following sounds a bit basic, but perhaps the printer is struggling with too much data. In the Print dialogue window, choose 'Graphics' and try these settings:
Images - Send Data: Optimised Subsampling
Fonts - Download: Subset
PostScript: (choose Level 2 or 3 to match your printer's driver/RIP)
Data Format: Binary
Or try printing one page at a time. No harm in trying.

My HP2000 - 210, running under Mandriva 2011 Linux, will not print landscape pages properly

If I try to print a landscape page, it works ok for the first 180 mm or so, then prints several copies of a narrow section of the remainder. Looks as though it tries to stay with Portrait

I am having the same problem. I 've soaked the heads, I've put genuine ink in. I've tried everything but cannot get it to print in the Black XL. Prints all other colors and the photo black, but no in text black. So irritated right now !!!
HELP ! ! !
I've even did a hard factory reset.

I recently bought an Epson Artisan 837 printer. I installed the driver and now Photoshop from CS3 will not open. It quits when the Twain portion of the program starts loading. Does anyone know how to fix this so my printer will work with Photoshop??

I recently bought an Epson Artisan 837 printer. I installed the driver and now Photoshop from CS3 will not open. It closes every time it gets to the point where it is loading the Twain portion. Does anyone know how to fix this so my printer and Photoshop will work together? Thanks for any help I can get!

You're welcome.
But, no, don't look to Epson for fixes to their driver in newer versions, and Adobe has deprecated the TWAIN plug-in. Hoping for a solution there is futile. That has not happened and it's never going to happen. The consensus is that it's pretty foolish to tie up Photoshop to scan. Honestly.
Any improvement in the behavior of newer versions of the Epson drivers in that regard would be pure coincidence.
You need to understand that you never, ever scan "within" Photoshop, as Photoshop has no scanning capabilities whatsoever. When you use the Import > Twain plug-in all you are doing is blocking Photoshop while you call up the stand-alone Epson scanning software. If you think about it, its most inefficient.
VueScan has a pretty powerful scanning plug-in that can be called from the Impost menu—if you insist. VueScan is not free, but it's a pretty good value, IMO.
As for the Epson CD printing software, I have no clue. Sorry.

Elements 8 Editior will not print !!

I am extremely annoyed at Adobe as Elements Editor (8.0) will not print!! I have seen a number of complaints about this and I have tried multiple things to fix the problem. I own many different Adobe products (Design Suite 5, Reader, Acrobat, Elements) as well as many other programs (Office 03, 07, and 10, Corel Suite of products, many photo related programs, etc.) and they all work fine on all te printers attached to my computer. Even Elements organizer works perfectly.
With the Elements Editor I get an error box that starts with “Before you can perform printer-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document you need to install a printer”.
Another post to this forum suggested using the Microsoft XPS document writer print driver. I tried that and it did get me a bit farther in that I finally was able to get the print dialog box up; however, whenever I selected another printer I got an error message telling me there was a fatal program error and I had to eventually quit and re-start elements.
I have looked for Elements updates – and none are available. Someone suggesting re-loading the program and I really do not want to do that as the program works perfectly (as dies the organizer) except for printing. I have recently updated the print driver so that cannot be the problem and as I said – you can print directly from the organizer.
To make matters worse I got so frustrated looking for a web address or e-mail for sending my complaint to Adobe that I gave up – none could be found.
Can anyone let me in on the secret as to how to print, or get the editor to recognize the printer, from Elements Editor?
Thanks – Mike

Mike,
You state: " I have recently updated the print driver so that cannot be the problem and as I said – you can print directly from the organizer."
I have been led to believe that the print engines for Editor and Organizer are not the same, even though they are marketed within the same program. It may be that the driver for the printer antedates the production of PSEv.8.
Have you tried using another printer (of recent vintage) for printing from Editor?

OfficeJet Pro K8600 looses communication -will not print

This is our main printer in the design area at work and I really need this to work!! Any help appreciated.
Vista SP2 Dell Pavilion Intel Quad 2.33ghz 64bit OS 8gb RAM OfficeJet Pro K8600 on USB cable to main ports
I loose the connection and have to reboot the computer to get it to print again.
It prints fine for several hours or a day or so, then suddenly will freeze part way through printing, or simply will not print at all. In Printer preferences I click on services - Ink levels tab - "computer unable to establish 2 way communication"
Removing the USB and reattaching does not help, nor does changing the USB port used.
Disconnected unit, rebooted, deleted printer icon, uninstalled printer drivers, rebooted, did full install using the HP CD and I still have the same problem after printing for awhile.
HP Diagnostic utility does not detect any problems when printer is not working or when it is working.

Did you install the two HP updates slp_dd_hati_110_107.exe and ConvergedIO_HPCOM_V3.exe?

Firefox 3.6.8 will not print.

Firefox 3.6.8 will not print my AOL mail or any web page. It says a printer needs to be installed. I believe this began happening when I upgraded from Firefox 3.6.6.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== When I upgraded from Firefox 3.6.6 or 3.6.5.

Firefox has some printing bugs that appear when the page designer uses certain style rules. There's no immediate prospect that Firefox will be fixed, but of course mail.live.com could be changed at any time. Until then, you can use the Stylish extension to override the styles on mail.live.com, and many other sites that could use a tweak.
If you're inclined to try this:
(1) Install Stylish
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2108/
(2) Add a new user style
Tools > Add-ons > User Style tab > Write New Style button
Give it any name you like (e.g., Fix Hotmail Printing) and then copy and paste the following style rule text into the large edit area:
@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);
@-moz-document domain("mail.live.com") {
.PrintContent .ReadMsgBody .ExternalClass {display:block !important}
Compare with my screen shot for reference.
Explanation: this overrides the style from display:inline-block back to display:block.
Works for me. Any luck?

Officejet Pro 8620 will not print old documents, only newly created ones

When I use the driver designed for the printer I can only print documents (Word, Excel, and Publish 2007) that are new, as long as I have not copied and pasted or inserted sheets from previously created documents. It will not print any Outlook 2007 emails but it prints PDF's fine. Also, the printer works fine with driver for deskjet 990c but limits my options on page size and the margin on the right side won't change and are way to big for most of my documents. Any thoughts?

This is very peculiar @bmphr

If that does not resolve the issue, post back and let me know if there are any symbols other than green check marks and what they are next to of course. The wrench is not always easy to spot as the wrench and the check mart are in the green circle.
If you see only green check marks (), the tool did not find any problems.
If you see green wrenches (), the utility identified an issue and corrected it automatically.
If you see yellow exclamation points (), the test failed and required user action, but the step was skipped.
If you see a red X (), follow the on-screen instructions to resolve the issue.

Acrobat reader will not print what is showing on the screen

I created a business card in a graphic design program, exported it as a PDF file. When I open the pdf file in acrobat, it will display correctly on the screen, but will not print correctly.
When I click on the print icon, a box opens and shows a small preview of what is supposed to print. What shows in the small preview box is correct, but when it prints, it drops off text.
When I go back to the program that created the card, it will print correctly from that program. When I open the pdf file in Photoshop, it will print correctly in Photoshop. It just drops off text in Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Reader when printing.

This sounds very similar to the issue that I am having.
acrobat pro printing correctly ,same file with adobe reader printing grey instead of black.
Unfortunately I have not yet gotten any feedback, and your post being over 45 days without a response doesn't bode well for my issue either.
Sorry I can't help you.

HP 6210 all-in-one installed now on Windows 7 and prints fine. However, with landscape pages, will not print the right 1.5 inches of any NEW page I prepare, but pages prepared before on XP print fine. I've tried all adjustments and it just doesn't make sense to me whta is going on. HELP!!

I actually solved the problem myself by installing still another replacement set of print heads.

Bridge CS3 will not install

My Bridge CS3 will not install on my new Intel duo core iMac. It worked on my earlier iMac, but when PhotoshopCS3 was moved and installed on the new one, Bridge was nowhere to be seen. I have repaired permisisons, reinstalled PS CS3, and looked for Internet advice.
I would really like to continue to have the Bridge in the CS3.
Am I going to have to rely on my new Lightroom Developer for its Camera RAW functions and for renaming my files? I liked the Bridge RAW converter very much. The old Bridge is still on my machine, but its renaming functions don't suit me at all, and for some reason it is refusing to open my non-RAW files.

I still advocate Repairing Permissions (with Apple's Disk Utility) before AND after any system update or upgrade, as well as before AND after installing any software that requires an installer that asks for your password.
I have seen software installations go sour because the installer did not find everything as and where it should be. I have also seen software installations go bad because the installer did not clean up after itself properly and did not leave everything as and where it should be. This is just my own personal opinion and practice based on my own observations.
Others may disagree and that's OK. I can only base my routines and my advice to others on my own experience and conclusion. I don't pretend to know why others believe otherwise. Note that this suggestion begins with "I still advocate…", not "Apple recommends…".
Repairing Permissions after the fact (i. e. not immediately before and after an install) may NOT help. Try it anyway, though.
==== Additionally, if your machine does not run 24/7 so that it runs the daily, weekly and monthly Cron Scripts in the middle of the night as intended by Apple, run Cocktail (shareware) as well.
Cron Scripts are maintenance routines designed by Apple to run on a daily, weekly and monthly basis in the middle of the night. If you don't run them, you WILL run into trouble, sooner rather than later.
Here's an excerpt from the Apple tech doc http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107388 Mac OS X performs background maintenance tasks at certain times if the computer is not in sleep mode. If your computer is shut down or in sleep at the designated times, the maintenance does not occur. In that case, you may want or need to run these manually.
Mac OS X periodically runs background tasks that, in part, remove system files that are no longer needed. This includes purging older information from log files or deleting certain temporary items. These tasks do not run if the computer is shut down or in sleep mode. If the tasks do not run, it is possible that certain log files (such as system.log) may become very large. Also, from:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106978
The disk activity generated by find is a normal part of file system maintenance, used for tasks such as removing invisible temporary files that are used by the system. It is scheduled to occur early in the morning at 03:15 everyday, 04:30 on Saturdays, and 05:30 on the first day of each month.
NOTE: There have been comments to the effect that Apple "fixed" this in 10.4.2 and later versions of the OS, but I have not been able to verify this to my satisfaction. The reference in the 10.4.2 release notes are far from explicit on this subject. Other, more reliable reports indicate that this seems to have been fixed in the current version of Leopard.
In any event, Repairing Permissions and/or running the Cron Scripts cannot hurt.
If you have DiskWarrior, run it regularly too. It can't hurt either, and it often improves stability and performance.

Optima letter 'f' will not print

This makes no sense, but ID will not print the letter 'f' captial or lowercase with any degree of consistency. Sometimes it will print it and sometimes it won't. Although it seems to really dislike the 'fl' combination.
The space those characters occupy is just left absent. Beginning of the word, middle doesn't matter. 'Flexibility' becomes ' exibility'. 'After' becomes 'A ter'.
While this appears to be random, when it decides not to print a specific 'f' or 'fl' combo, it will never print it. Deleting the text block and retyping doesn't work. We've even replaced the font file.
What gives?!
CS3 on XP-SP3
Xerox and HP printers

The Optima family of fonts is indeed one of the printer-resident font families for Adobe PostScript 3 printers (or printers emulating same). The font in Adobe PostScript printers is Type 1 and sourced from the Linotype library. I have no idea of the lineage of the Agfa Monotype TrueType flavor of this font. However, both Acrobat and Reader download all fonts as part of their PostScript stream regardless of what the printer may or may not have as "resident" fonts. If for some reason, the PDF does not have the font embedded in it, a substitution font is used both for display and print.
You description of what happened when you "checked" the "download PPD fonts" in InDesign's print dialog is very consistent with what we know about expected print behaviour. What is very puzzling is what you are describing with regards to Acrobat and Reader! We need further information. (1) Exactly what printer model or models (not just manufacturer) is the file failing on from Acrobat and Reader? (2) What version of Acrobat or Reader are you using from what platform? (3) Please e-mail me a sample of the PDF file in question so that we can test it out here at Adobe.
