IWeb page printed from iWeb site comes out BLACK on some browsers

I made and run a website for a local art group. iWeb works well for this purpose. I publish the site to our domain. The main site is for the public and a second site, password protected and reached through the main site, is for members.
I've put the entry form for our biggest annual exhibition on the website, intending that members can print it from there (most have hard copies as well). Printing works perfectly from Safari. But many members have PCs (grrr) and use things like Firefox and IE.
Firefox prints the iWeb pages totally BLACK. IE prints okay on some computers and not on others. A clue is that, if you look fast as you open an iWeb page in IE, you see all the layout components in light blue; it immediately disappears. But that is the part that prints out black.
What on earth is causing this and HOW can it be prevented?? I have used NO background color on my pages.
Thanx,

That ain't right! What you need to do is use web-safe fonts...

Cannot print from web sites after update to FF 7.0.1

cannot print from web sites after update to FF 7.0.1
Printing from my email account (Cox) is OK
System Windows Vista

When my wife updated Firefox to version 7.0.1 she was no longer able to print items from the web such as coupons. She can print from her email (Cox) account.
She is running Vista.
When I updated to Firefox 7.0.1, I did not have a problem. I am running Vista also.
Tried using the Firefox help page but no help so far.
I did notice that on her computer in the "Plugins" for Firefox that HP Smart Web Printing is now disabled and is not compatible with Firefox 7.0.1. She had no problems until she did the update.

OfficeJet J4550 All-In-One not scanning or copying; only prints from certain sites

I have a HP Pavillion Slimline 400 and my will not scan or copy, and only prints from certain sites. I have uninstalled and installed the software driver numerous times and still get a "scanner not working" message. I have also unplugged and turned off and replugged in the USB and the power cords several times. Currently, I have uninstalled the printer software, so I have no recognizable printer on my PC. Help!!

Hello bran1288,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with scanning and printing from a select few sites.
I have a few steps that we can try to troubleshoot this issue.
First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
As for printing from web pages, please make sure that you have your firewall or anti virus settings turned down as well as the Pop-up blocker disabled. If this does not resolve the issue, maybe try another web browser such as Mozilla fire fox or Google Chrome.
As for the scanning issue, so I can better assist you, please respond with which Operating System you are running:
Which Windows Operating System am I running?
Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
Please write me back when you have time and I will be happy to help.

Hi there,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that your HP 8500 will print but no ink comes out, and I am happy to help you!
I am also glad that you had already put new ink in, and cleaned the printheads.
For further assistance, I will need to know your printer's Product/Model number. As there are multiple HP 8500 printers. To find your printer's Product/Model Number follow instructions in this link. Finding Your HP Product Model Number.
Hope to hear from you soon, and thank you for posting!

I have a Office Jet Pro L7780. When I try to print red, the color comes out brown

I have a Office Jet Pro L7780. When I try to print red, the color comes out brown. I have tried replacing all of the ink cartridges, printing from within two different programs (microsoft word and belight business card composer V5) from my Mac, and from within MS Word on my Windows lap top. In all cases if red is called for, I get brown.
I have gone through the printhead cleaning procedure, the alignment procedure and the print quality diagnostics, all to no avail.
Thanks in advance for your help

My wireless HP Deskjet 3050 printer will not print from web sites.

My HP Deskjet 3050 J610 printer will not print from web sites - it prints ok from WORD, etc. I keep getting the error message: "An unknown error occurred while printing." This problem only arises with Firefox browser.
The printer is connected wirelessly to a network and this occurs when I use a laptop on the network. It is also connected via cable to a desktop computer but there is no problem in printing from the desktop.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

That sounds as if you need to investigate to see if you were able to clear all of the paper that was causing the jam.
Best regards,
erico

Full page prints from iPhone but not from iPad using photo app with AirPrint ?

Full page prints from iPhone but not from iPad using photo app with AirPrint ? iPad only prints 4x6 on full size paper. It's an HP 8600.

I also have this problem printing photos from an iPad to an Epson WF-2540 printer. It prints only 4x6 and without border (so print starts at extreme top left corner of paper). Borderless printing is not selected on printer. Printing a square photo just crops to 4x6 size.

The photos in my IPhoto have all become mini-thumbnails and I can't open or edit them. When I print the image it comes out normal size. How do I get the thumbnails back to the standard size and be able to work with them?

What version of iPhoto and system are you running? On the guess that you're running the latest iPhoto, 9.4.2, Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the thumnails, Option #2.
2 - It may take 2-3 attempts so don't give up after only one attempt.

Officejet 6500: All print jobs (except copies) come out with black smudged background. Fixes?

I have an Officejet 6500.: All print jobs (except copies) come out with dark black smudged background and the text is also smudged. Any suggestions? Thx

FYI, for Black not printing on OJ 6500 ...
If the printer is out of warranty it may be worth following the suggestion in this post re. soaking the Printhead. Note it's important to switch the printer off at the Power button rather than just plugging out at the wall (as otherwise the Printhead won't get capped properly and may dry out)

How to have only single pages printed from iphoto book

I would like to know if it is possible to have pages printed from an iphoto book that is not bound. I just want the loose pages to create an ongoing scrapbook not an already bound book. Is this possible?

If you print yourself one way to do it is to start to print the whole book by typing Command+P. Then in the print window select either All, Single or Range and then put in the page numbers you want to print. Then click on the PDF button and select Save PDF to iPhoto from the drop down menu.
Screenshot from iPhoto 11 in Lion - Click to view full size
This will create a 200 dpi jpg file for the page and import it into iPhoto. From there you can print it yourself or have a local photofinisher print it on whatever stock you'd like.

HP M401dne Two Page Printing from Tray 1

When attempting to print a two sided document from Tray 1, the first page prints from that tray, after turning the document over to print the back page, the printer takes the paper from Tray 2.

>> ... attempting to print a two sided document from Tray 1, the first page prints from that tray, after turning the document over to print the back page, the printer takes the paper from Tray 2 ...
I'm not sure that I understand your reference to "turning the document over to print the back page".
This seems to imply that you are using what is commonly referred to as "manual duplex", where you print all of the even pages, then (manually) take the printed outpuit and place it back in the tray, then print the odd pages on the other side.
[I'm not sure if it's odd first, then even, or vice-versa - may depend on printer model and driver].
But your printer model (LaserJet M401dne) should have a built-in automatic duplexer unit, where duplex action occures automatically, without manual intervention.
Perhaps your printer driver is unaware that the device has a duplex unit?
Ensure that the driver knows that a duplex unit is present on the printer (assuming that one is):
For the printer instance in question, bring up the Printer properties dialogue.
Select the Device settings tab.
Ensure that the duplex unit is set to Installed rather than Not installed.
You'll probably need to be logged in with administrator credentials in order to change the device settings.
... or are you saying that the first page prints from one tray, whilst succeeding pages (no matter how many) print from a different tray?

Exported video comes out black...

Hi–
So I've been working on a sequence that involves a combination of live action and animation, where the animation was brought in as a PNG sequence.
In the timeline view, everything is 100% fine, but when I export the video the animated portions come out fine and the live action footage comes out black (with the occasional green scan lines).
Any idea why this might be and how to fix it?
