Issue printing ProRes to HDCam SR

Hello all,
I'm seeing an issue turning up when I print footage out to a 5500 HDCam Sr deck. We're running tiger (10.4.11) FCP studio 2, and using Kona 3's.
The Issue seems to be a grain 'sharpening'. It seems to hit the grain structure and not as much the picture overall as much. Although there seems to be a very slight luminance shift as well. It looks fine on our panasonic BH monitors, but when capturing back from tapes that were printed out, it's there and easy to see when A/B-ing the footage.
At this point, I'm not sure if it's the render settings in fcp (10 bit YUV, RGB, superwhite vs white etc) Kona control panel (v 5x and 6x) settings, or on the deck itself.
The effect does not show up when capturing dailies, so I'm pretty sure it's on the printing out and not on the capture.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have tried playing with various settings in all three, but have stumped myself.

Hey Shane,
Thanks for the quick reply! ^^
I considered the generational loss thing too, but the interesting things are that we don't have this with our HDCam deck (HDW f500) and the fact that we had it on a print out to tape (on the 5500) with some wipe transitions on a 1st gen print out. (which is where we first discovered it- the interesting thing is that we found it again on a recapture)
Those settings(YUV hi precision 10 bit) are what I was running before we found it, and then I changed it in testing to the RGB setting and it seemed to lessen it. Another interesting point is that it showed up on another 1st gen printout (dailies captured, cut and output) where we had FCP generated titles.
Hope that makes sense and helps narrow things down,
thanks a bunch!

Want to print ProRes to video

We want to print to video a sequence which Color converted from HDV 1080p30 to ProRes 422HQ and don't see an output setting for ProRes 422HQ in A/V Devices under A/V settings.
Any idea how we can do this?

Just to back up Tom...You can't print ProRes video to HDV tape. It MUST be HDV. So any benefit you got for going to ProRes is gone. If you knew you were going back to HDV tape than you should have skipped the ProRes format completely. Rendered out of Color as HDV.
And ProRes IS HD. HD can be many many many different formats. ProRes, DNxHD, Uncompressed HD, DVCPRO HD, HDV, HDCAM, HDCAM SR, AVCHD, AVCIntra...H.264...more.

Issue printing PDF Packages

I'm having issues printing PDF Packages.Clients have contacted us stating that our PDF Packages don't print properly. Essentially they were only able to print the "coversheet" and nothing else. I ran some test scenarios and noted that PDF Packages print feature behaved differently depending on several criterias:
how it was viewed (ie: desktop, Firefox browser, IE browser)
what Adobe Reader Plugin
what command was used to access print feature (ie: file>print, ctrl + P, print icon)
So far I've noticed that Adobe Reader utilizes two versions of the Print Dialog Box. The first one shows four choices for "Print Range" (All, Current View, Current Page, Pages...) seems to always be misconfigured and does not print as intended. The second one I've noticed seems to limit your Print Range choices (All, Current View) which usually works.
This seems to be an Adobe bug. This Print Bug exists on both Acrobat 8 and 9, and the bug may or may not exist depending on how you view the "PDF Package" (ie: Desktop, Firefox, IE).
If you open the PDF Package on your desktop and view via Adobe Reader for the most part it prints as expected for "Print Current Documents" or "Print All Documents". Although the "Print Range" is misaligned (ie: "Print All" behaves as "Current View", "Current View" behaves as "Current Page".
If you open the PDF Package on a browser with an Adobe Reader plugin, a different scenario occurs.
You might experience that you're locked into printing only the "coversheet" of the PDF Package.
And again your "Print Range" might be misaligned.
In Adobe Reader 8, a dropdown appeared when you selected "File>Print" or the "Print Icon". The dropdown then gave you an option to "Print Current Documents" or "Print All Documents". Which basically provided you an option to print the entire "PDF Package" or choose to print only a section of the "PDF Package".
In Adobe Reader 9, the option to choose between "Print Current Documents" or "Print All Documents" was removed.
In fact I started to document the instances to see if its an isolated issue and it looks like it fails to print (as intended) 60% of the time. Of the 40% that does print as intended... it looks like half the time the "Print Range" is misconfigured.
Also, I've noticed that Reader utilizes two different "Print Dialog" boxes.
The testing scenario I set up was that you can print in three different ways:
    1. File>Print
    2. <ctrl + P>
    3. <print icon>
Three ways to view the PDF package:
    1. Download PDF Package & view on your desktop via Adobe Reader
    2. View PDF Package on Firefox w/ Adobe Reader plugin
    3. View PDF Package on Internet Explored w/ Adobe Reader plugin
My computer is using:
XP Pro SP3, Acrobat Reader 9
I've also spot tested on:
XP Pro SP3, Acrobat Reader 8
Vista, Acrobat Reader 8
Any Ideas?

Hi Greg,
Since this is sytem defined settings that you are trying to implement, I presume that the INI changes ought to be done in FSISYS.INI rather than the FSIUSER.INI.
Apart from that most of your INI changes look fine as we are also using pdf as our Output type. Please find the INI change swe have implemented in our system for printing pdf.
Device = ..\Print\Prt.pdf
Bookmark = Yes,Page
Compression = 0
DownLoadFonts = Yes,Enabled
LanguageLevel = Level2
Module = PDFW32
PageNumbers = Yes
PrintFunc = PDFPrint
PrintType = PDF
SendOverlays = No,Enabled
SendColor = Yes,Enabled
PrintViewOnly = No
SplitText = No
SplitPercent = 50
TextCommentOn = FORMSET
Papersize = 0
FontCompression = 1
Hope this is helpful.
Thanks,

Issue Printing One or Two Checks on HP LaserJet Pro 200 MFP M276nw

I just purchased an HP LaserJet Pro 200 MFP M276nw which replaces an HP Color LaserJet 2605dn.
I've run into an issue printing checkes from Quicken when I print less than a full sheet (one or two) checks.
With my old printer, I used the manual feed for a partial sheet.
Since the new printer does not have a manual feed, I have to put the partial sheet in the paper tray.
It seems one of two things happen:
1) Sometimes the printer will print the partial page but then displays an error message which says something like "Unexpected paper size, load letter."
It then re-prints the partial page on the next sheet of paper.
2) Othertimes, it prints the partial page without the error message, but then feeds the next sheet of paper throught the printer.
In either case the next page contains the next three checks, so it's either wasting checks or printing on the wrong check numbers.
Any suggestions on how to avoid these issues would be appreciated.

Me too.
I've been using an alternate printer for printing the checks, but I'd rather get rid of the old one. (The HP Laser Pro 200 takes up a lot of space!)
KC, Seems like you've been waiting for an answer for a VERY long time. I'm not going to hold my breath.
Hey HP! Do you ever monitor this site?!

Failed to issue print from win7 laptop to Canon MP230 which is connected to mac mini os x 10.8.3

HI
I have recently bought a Canon MP230 printer and connected to my Mac Mini 10.8.3 usb port.
To setup the printer I downloaded the latest driver from canon web site and install all of them
When I issue print from my mac mini it works fine.
Next step was to issue print from Windows 7 laptop .
To do that I intalled Bonjoure in my Windows 7 latpot and set the printer connected to MAc Mini as default printer.
Upto this point every thing works fine.
When I tried to issue print from my Windows 7 laptop the printer gets activated the power button start blinking . But it just pass a page from
input tray to out tary without printing a single line. I have looked into cups server page at my mac mini. It shows that the job fired from windows
laptop was done.
I treid a lot debug it myself . But no luck yet.
Please help me. I am very upset.
Thanks
Anirban

I just updated to 10.8.3 today, and my computer and Apple TV won't even recognize each other now. I have absolutely no advice, but wanted to throw this in so you (and Apple) know you're not the only one.

Leopard upgrade issue printing to Xerox Docucolor 5000

We recently upgraded to Leopard and have come up with an issue printing to our Docucolor 5000. When printing multiple copies of a page set up for landscape from AI CS3 or CS4 the first page prints okay. On subsequent pages the paper has flipped to protrait, although the are remains in landscape. Any thoughts on how to overcome this?
Has happened to all of our Macs (all identical) with the upgrade. No other changes to our hardware or software.
Docucolor 5000
Fiery EXP50
Driver: Fiery Docucolor 5000 v2.0

Hello Terry. We had the same problems with our Canon printers that use the Fiery print controller. After blaming Adobe for the problem EFI, the makers of the Fiery, released a patch and updated driver that resolved this orientation problem. So I suggest you contact your Xerox support to see if they have these same fixes for your model of Fiery. Or you could check the EFI web site for any updates.

Hi Nam,
This probelm is becuase you are trying to enter a record for which primary key already exists in the table.
The insertion you are doing with a set of values which already exist and sap is getting this error that the "Duplicate record during insertion". try to check your insertion values and through se16 check if they already exist in the table mkpf.
To rectify the data or else change the table and add one more unique to the primary key.

Issue importing ProRes files

Just bought Premiere CS6. Have an issue importing ProRes files. Have searched a dozen forums and FAQ pages, and not got a clear or functional answer. I'm trying to find a phone number for Adobe Product support. It is almost evil. Every page takes me to either a FAQ page, or this forum, or back to the page I started at, never arriving at the product support number that is promised with the purchase of the product.
Anyone got a suggestion?
I've already posted my issue on this forum several days ago, but received no answer as of yet.
When I try to import a ProRes file into Premiere CS6 (latest ver.) all that comes in is the audio track.
I've come across rumours and hints in various forums that suggests I should be able to import and edit ProRes in CS6, just not export ProRes. Which is fine. It allows me to do an edit on a Windows platform (in the studio where I'm working) and then I can bring the project back to Mac and output the master as ProRes.
Help please!!
Ben

I modified the title to reflect the issue your having sine it sounds like a phone # is no longer your priority now. I'm glad installing QuickTime fixed it for you. It is listed as a system requirements and we do recommend having it to avoid situations like yours. Many have worked for some time without it with little or nor problems.
As for the support number, I'm not sure what Number that would be either, but it seems like customers usually get good answers in a timely manner just by being on here. Welcome.

Peachtree Classic 12 Issues printing from PDQ

This is a long-shot but I am looking to see if anyone has any knowledge of Peachtree Classic 12. We have a user that does accounting through Peachtree Classic 12 which resides on a Windows 2000 VM running on VMWare Workstation 11. Every so often she has issues printing from the PDQ module it where it will either not print at all or print in a way that data doesn't fit on the page and gets cut off. Usually we can get it to print again by messing with port settings, power cycling the printer, etc. but what I am stuck on right now is getting it to fit all the data on one page. There is something in the PDQ Printer setup about compression codes and setup codes but I am not sure where to find the correct codes that will compress the data output so that it fits on one page. Any help would be appreciated.
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

I had a similar issue. Are the fonts on the pages the same or do they differ?
My issue was a font, check that.

CS3 issue with ProRes files with projects over 8bpc

Strange issue with ProRes clips I have had in AE projects in the past. Running CS3 on an Intel Mac with 10.5.8. If I bring an SD clip encoded in ProRes and I have the project set to anything over 8bit (16 or float) the clip just turns to noise, both in a comp and in the project viewer window. I can open the clip in AE (double click) and it appears just fine, same with just opening from the desktop. HD clips encoded into ProRes don't have any issue. The strange thing is that I have had some of this material in past projects with no problem. Nothing has really changed on this box since this cropped up. I've trashed prefs and resaved interpretation rules file, with no success. I also stripped out QT components to make sure I was not having a codec conflict. Has anyone run into something similar?
I have a very similar set up at home and I am not having any issue with these same files.

Todd,
I do not. I did see a post of yours earlier regarding CS5 and AJA. Other issues I should look for?

Payment Advice Issue- Print and fax at the same time

Hi,
Currently payment advices are being sent to business partners (vendors) thorugh fax/email. This is because process module Z_SAMPLE_PROCESS_00002040 is active in the system.
What I want to do is to be able to also print the payment advices even if vendor has communication data in the master data. Program RFFoEDI1 is used with a custom form. IDOCS are sent correctly to bank and remittance advices are faxed to vendor successfully. With business wanting hard copies of remittance advices, when I try to reprint after first payment run is done and faxes sent running RFFOEDI1 and the payment document number, system says no records selected. I searched in OSS and all the notes related to this issue are already in our system.
I have tried hard to solve this but no luck even I have done this before with other print programs but no RFFOEDI1. One option is to remove the fax/email addresses from vendor which allows me to print but client does not want to remove fax numbers from vendor master.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Look into BTE 2050, through which you could possibly e-mail an additional copy to a generic company e-mail as back up electronic filing of RA. And then you can print it if need to print them on Adhoc basis

Adobe X Issue Printing to 11x17

I just updated my Adobe this morning to Adobe X, and have encountered some issues with the Print function. I have to print a lot of ANSI C, D, and E sized documents to ANSI B (or 11x17) as a part of my job. When I went to do so this morning, my "Preview: Composite" showed a letter sized document in the window. Attempting to click on the "Properties" button resulted in nothing, as with attempting to click on the "Page Setup" button. All other buttons (ie. "Printing Tips", "Advanced", and "Summerize Comments") seem to work. In order to override this, I changed all preferences on my default printer (HP LaserJet 5100) to 11x17. The Preview still showed a letter sized document. As a last ditch effort, I tried to just right click -> "Print" from My Documents, but this produced "Adobe Reader has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" dialogue box. Further, I have the same problem with all the HP printers at work - HP-4600, HP-5500, HP-CP3505; but the Oce TDS450 (which doesn't print anything smaller than ANSI C) seems to work fine. I would rather stay with Adobe X than go through the process of reinstalling Adobe 9.4, but it is rather inconvenient to ask my coworker to print any pdf's I require to 11x17. Has anyone had the same issue and managed to solve it?

FYI: To anyone following this... I ended up trying to reinstall Adobe Reader X, and I still had the same issue that when I try to print, none of the network HP printers are recognized. I didn't have any luck resolving this issue, so I went back to Adobe Reader 9.4 and I am able to print again. Seems glitchy, if you ask me.
