L7680 Ejects Blank Page before and after print job

My L7680 recently started to eject a blank page before and after a print job; seperator page option is NOT selected. I tried all the suggested trouble shooting points in the HELP section but none have solved the issue.
This question was solved.

The setup button on the printer had a choice to return to all factory defaults - that solved the problem but it does take yoiu back to starting again to set other choices you may have made since starting toi use the devise.

PSC 1210 page feed before and after printing

My PSC 1210 has been working fine for years but it has just recently started feeding a blank page before and after printing. That wouldn't be a problem except that the blank pages are not fully ejected, this means that I have to grab the first blank page, as it comes through the printer, and pull it out, otherwise it gets drawn back in causing a paper jam when the actual print job starts. Once this blank page has been removed the print job continues perfectly.
This occurs when printing documents, copying using the scanner, and printing a test page.
I have removed and reinstalled the printer driver/software and performed a partial reset on the printer, neither fixed the problem.

I see you mention that the issue also happens when you are copying, that means that this issue is not related to your printer software. So that's good to know!
Now, since this is not a software issue, this must then be related to your hardware. Is this printer plugged into a wall outlet directly or is it plugged into a surge protector? To be sure that the printer gets all the power it needs make sure that it is plugged directly into a wall outlet.
First things first, I would recommend unplugging the printer for about 30 seconds from both the back of the unit and from the wall outlet, and then plugging it back in. Try making a copy or print and see if the issue persists.
You can also try cleaning the paper feed rollers in the printer, here is a document that can show you where all of those are located and how to clean them.

M1522nf feeds one bland page before and after each printing.

My HP m1522nf will feed one bland page before and after each printing.

This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

An extra page prints before and after a page with the data, why?

If I go to www.allrecipes.com, select a recipe and click on the Print button, FF prints an extra blank page before and after the recipe. The recipe is short and easily fits on a single page. I've changed all the print settings so that even the Header & Footer info is set to "Blank".

I don't understand why blank pages are generated, but I can help you with a quick hack if you like. This will strip off everything but the actual recipe area so that you can streamline the printout.
After you load the page and select your options:
* Open Firefox web console using Ctrl+Shift+k
* Next to the caret (>) paste the following script then press Enter to run it:
var rectbl = document.querySelector(".pageback table.recipeprinttable"); document.body.insertBefore(rectbl, document.body.firstChild); while(document.body.children.length>1) document.body.removeChild(document.body.children[1]);
* Close the web console by pressing Ctrl+Shift+k again
When you preview the page, it should look ready for printing. Any luck?
Obviously that's not very convenient if you print a lot of recipes from this site, so you could save the script as a bookmarklet. Here's how:
First, copy this slightly modified script (select, Ctrl+c):
javascript: var rectbl = document.querySelector(".pageback table.recipeprinttable"); document.body.insertBefore(rectbl, document.body.firstChild); while(document.body.children.length>1) document.body.removeChild(document.body.children[1]); void 0;
Next, if you are not displaying the Bookmarks Toolbar, you can display it using either:
* right-click a blank area of the tab bar > Bookmarks Toolbar
* tap the Alt key > View menu > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar
Right-click on the Bookmarks Toolbar and choose New Bookmark.
Paste the code into the Location box (the second box).
Then type a useful name in the Name box (e.g., AllRecipes) and click Add.
Now, when you want to hack the page, click the button to run the script.

CS4 is adding a blank page, throwing off the printing

I am creating a 40-page booklet to be printed 2-up saddle-stitch
In the Pages layout, it says i have 40 pages in 21 spreads. 1 page on the top is the front cover and 1 page on the bottom is the back cover and 19 double-page spreads inbetween. Pages 2 and 39 are the respective inside covers. Page 1 is aligned on the right and page 40 is aligned on the left. It should be printing fine, I would think.
But in the Print Booklet-Preview Pane, it gives a message that it has added 1 blank page to creat the booklet, and it was added before page one, so I now have no back cover, and my inside covers and page layouts are all wonky now.
I noticed that in the Pages flyout there is a small square to the right of Page 40, where page 41 would be. A small square that I can't highlight.
A few more items of interest, all pages have both Allow Document Pages to Shuffle and Allow Selected Spreads to Shuffle checked.
I am at a total loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Keep in mind that everyone here is a volunteer. Most of the regulars, like myself, drop in at least once a day, as we have time, and offer advice and solutions when we have them.
That said, I saw your post when it first was listed, and saw that you seemed to finding your way, and didn't have anything more to add at that point, as I suspect was the case with a lot of others. I'm sorry it never occurred to me to ask if you had any blank pages in the document, but there was nothing in the original post to suggest that, and including blank pages in a booklet print job is a pretty standard thing to do. If you know enough to have already added blanks to fix the page count, one would presume you also know enough to include them in the print job.
As far as the forum organization, we're about to go into a new version of the forum software, and many of the regulars are looking on that with some trepidation. Most of us actually LIKE the way things are now -- functional and uncluttered with extraneous nonsense like avatars and ratings points -- but it seems much of that is going to be creeping in. An attempt to unify the Adobe and Macromedia forums last year was an utter disaster, and we've all got our fingers crossed it won't happen again, but we'll be living with it no matter what as the Webcrossing contract is up and Adobe has signed on with Jive. You might want to take another look when the changeover is complete.
And, I'll repeat, these forums are probably the BEST source of FREE and accurate expert information on Adobe applications on the planet. You'll find users (and even some Adobe employees) from all over the world with vast experience in some pretty esoteric and specialized techniques. I find I still learn something new almost every week, and I've been making my living with InDesign since version 2.0 was released. I hope you'll come back if you have more questions.

I am trying to delete pages I have crated in numbers, but can only see them in print preview. Without print preview I do not see them. How can I delete these pages, but keep others before and after?

I am trying to delete pages I have crated in numbers, but can only see them in print preview. Without print preview I do not see them. How can I delete these pages, but keep others before and after?

Hi Crushed,
Numbers doesn't have pages. It has a canvas that holds objects such as tables and charts.
Drag the objects from the bottom of the canvas onto the white space above. That will reduce the number of "pages" (sheets of paper) that will print.

Ian.

Can I print before and after on the same page?

Hi everyone.
I'm really proud of my editing on a particular image. I want to print the before and after on the same page, just like I can see the before and after side-by-side in the Develop mode.
Is this possible?
Thanks for your help.

Yes but you will need to make a virtual copy by going to the menu:
Photo >> Create Virtual Copy
Then open copy 2 in the Develop module and from the history panel change the setting to the time of import (usually the bottom of the list) or use the re-set button to get back to the original file from camera.
You can then select copy 1 & 2 and go to the Print module to set up your page with both images.

HP 7280 outputs a blank page before every page printed

Newly-installed 7280 works fine, but everytime something is printed, it outputs a blank page before every printed page. This is true whether printing from Word, IE, Outlook, Quicken, Photoshop, etc.
I have checked all likely culprits in the printer dialog boxes, including clearing the Separator Page option.
Any thoughts?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

are your computers running windows XP or Vista? because in Vista, if it uses the pre-installed drivers that come with the OS, then it prints blank sheets between the printed sheets. if you install the driver from the CD directly, then it has resolved the issue a lot of times for me.
so to the properties of the printer, and go to the Advanced Tab, and click in New Driver. and in teh wizard, select HP Photosmart 'C7200' and not Photosmart '7200' (considering it is the Photosmart C7280). that should work.

Print blank pages befor content starts

Hi,
While printing html through content editor web part. It prints blank pages before content starts.
I have images in my html document.
When I set the width of img to 400 px it works fine..
but if I say width:100% it prints so many blank pages extra before content starts.
Anybody has any idea?
Please share
Thanks

Hi,
In HTML 4.01, the width could be defined in pixels or in % of the containing element. In HTML5, the value must be in pixels. Please check whether the image in a html5 page.
Here are some jQuery Plugins about printing page for your reference:
http://projects.erikzaadi.com/jQueryPlugins/jQuery.printElement/
http://www.sitepoint.com/10-jquery-print-page-options/
I the issue still exists, I suggest you provide your code and html page for further research.Thanks,

Bug: Before and After Margins Layout with section starting in right page

Hi,
I am using the Spanish version of Pages 09. I have observed that when I start a new section, I have no problems setting the layout margins (right, left, before, after) of this section.
But if a set that the new section must start in a right page, then the "before" and "after" margins of the layout doesn't work.
Is this the same in English versions of Pages?
Regards,

I see what you are saying.
The problem is Pages seems to have a memory of how you arrived at that layout.
When I construct the pages, it is correct.
I am trying to find out what is interacting in your layout to cause this to happen. It is like there is a hidden inaccessible layout break on the blank inserted page.
I have been tearing my hair out trying to work out what triggers it off. As I experimented with the combinations of settings in Facing pages, Section layouts and which page it starts on, it erratically switches back and forth.
This is why I gave up on Pages years ago as a serious layout tool. It has too many of these raw, poorly thought out interactions. I use a lot of different applications and none of them, that I can think of, have so many of these mind twisting raw oddities. Odd for a supposed user friendly application.
All the rest are pretty literal, you apply the settings and end up with a logical result of those settings. If the result is not what you wanted it is a matter of tracking what is interacting with what and straightening it out. Pages has the annoying "design" of inexplicably greying out functions for no stated reason, that prevents correction. Or hiding the access to the tools to those settings. You can only get to some of them if you have explicitly done something to make them possible. The rules as to what that "something" is, are not apparent nor in most cases explained in the User Guide or the User Interface.
There may be a "reason" why the function is greyed out but it is not revealed to the user without an enormous amount of detective work and as in this case my sleuthing abilities are failing me completely. I might try it again tomorrow after a rest (it is very late here). Either way it is a huge time waster.
This is fundamentally bad User Interface design and what I have railed against since Apple changed shifts, bringing in the OSX programmers who never really got the polished UI of the original Mac OS and have been cooking with Fanta* ever since.
Peter
* This is an anecdote originally told by Peter Russell-Clarke, a well known and creative Australian chef back in the 70's. He was berated in the street by a woman who told him that his recipe for +Duck à l'orange+ was "disgusting". When he cross examined her, he found she didn't eat fresh fruit so had made the orange sauce with Fanta.
I use this to try and get the message over to clients when they insist on "substituting" material because "what's the difference". The trouble with people who can't tell the difference is that they rarely ever do, no matter how carefully it is demonstrated to them.

HP C5580 Printer feeds one blank page before actually printing

Good morning,
For the record I am using a Compaq Presario AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3300+, 2411MHz/1.93 GBs RAM, running Windows Xp Home, SP3., with IE8.
For the past few months I have been using a HP Photosmart C5580 All-In-One printer and I am more than satisfied with its performance.
However, the past few weeks I have noticed that when I print anything the printer will send out a 'blank' page before it actually starts printing my job.
This isn't the end of the world but I am curious (1) why this just started to happen in the last couple of days and (2) is there a setting I can change to stop this blank page from preceding all my print jobs?
Thanks and regards,
2harts4ever

In my class i am suppose to do a before and after shot, how do i have two photos on one page

before and after shots..how do i put two photos on one page?? please help

Good day!
As Photoshop is not a page layout application but primarily image editing software the concept of "page" has limited relevance.
Anyway, you could increase the canvas (Image > Canvas Size) and place the other image (File > Place …) or drag and drop it.
Or create a new image and place both images. Whether doing so as Embedded or Linked Smart Objects makes more sense depends on your workflow, I guess.
File > Automate > Contact Sheet II would be another option.

Printing count of records before and after a command in a PL/SQL

Hi: I have the following PL/SQL script
declare
l_sysdate date := sysdate;
begin
INSERT INTO a_mnsnotes SELECT * from mnsnotes where TKT_NBR in (
select TKT_NBR from mnsinterface where MNS_STATUS=5 and CLOSED_DATE < (((l_sysdate-30) - to_date('01-JAN-1970','DD-MON-YYYY')) * 86400));
delete from mnsnotes Where
TKT_NBR in (select TKT_NBR from mnsinterface where MNS_STATUS=5 and CLOSED_DATE < (((l_sysdate-30) - to_date('01-JAN-1970','DD-MON-YYYY')) * 86400));
commit;
end;
/I want to assign the number of records in the two table (a_mnsnotes and mnsnotes) to two variables so I can print in one line the numberof records for both tables before and after the procedure. How do I set the output of a sql command (select count(*) from mnsnotes) to a variable within the pl/sql?
Thanks
Ravi

Also I'm guessing this:
(((l_sysdate-30) - to_date('01-JAN-1970','DD-MON-YYYY')) * 86400);
is because closed_date is stored as number of seconds since 01-JAN-1970, which should be turned into a date ASAP. Never store dates as anything other than DATE datatype (or maybe TIMESTAMP in more recent versions).
It's not right, as sysdate will have a time component so if this code is run at 8am it will give different results to if it is run at 9pm. And not all months have 30 days.
Have you considered TRUNC(add_months(sysdate,-1)) instead of l_sysdate-30 ?

I dropped in 2 photos as a side by side (a before and after shot) in Pages. I went to upload it on a website, but said: not an allowed file type. I converted it to a pdf, but that didn't work either. Is there a way to convertPages doc to a jpeg?

that as an option on scroll bar.

Hi iris117,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
One thing you can do if you can't just upload the photos individually, is to take a screen shot of your Pages document. Here's how:
