My c5180 no longer prints from my laptop. an error message comes up with ink system failure

My printer still prints but it will not print from my laptop. We've checked all the connections, replaced all the ink because it said that ink had expired. An error message comes up ink system failure.

    I don't have a link handy, but as far as I know, the Acrobat 9 user guide is available online as a (guess what!) PDF you may download... or is on the disc if you bought physical media
    Go to that PDF and search for compatibility
    The PDF for version 8 covers setting the options to a previous version on pages 102-103
    The words may (or may not) be different for v9

    The Adobe PDF Settings dialog box in Acrobat Distiller contains panels of options that you can select to customize your PDF output.
    General panel options
    Use this panel to select a version of Acrobat for file compatibility and other file and device settings. (The panel appearance differs in Windows and Mac OS.)
    Compatibility Sets the compatibility level of the PDF. Use the most recent version (in this case, version 1.7) to include all the latest features and functionality. If youre creating PDFs that will be distributed widely, choose an earlier level, to ensure that all users can view and print the document.

  • Photoshop suddenly does not print to Epson 3880 - PROBLEM: Cannot print from Photoshop  After restart error message appears:  - "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopen

    PROBLEM: Cannot print from Photoshop
    After restart error message appears:
    — “There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents.”
    • All print commands are greyed out and unavailable — even to call up the printer commands cannot be done.
    The printer printed fine until about 2 weeks ago when this error message appeared.  Printing continues from Pages, I-photo, preview etc. —  only Photoshop fails.
    The printer has been turned on and off, as have open documents been closed and open etc..   Preferences reset.  Repeatedly I have read through blogs and forums and attempted to contact Adobe — all without results
    Epson support struggled to find reason and several solutions were tried and they assume this is an Adobe problem.

  • Photosmart 5580 will no longer print from my wifes laptop, only from the desktop computer

    Hello,
    We have an HP computer with a photosmart 5580.  We also have a lynksis wireless network set up for the home for all of the kids laptops.  My wife and kids used to have the capability to print documents from their laptops.  I am not sure if it was going through the wireless network or the bluetooth technology on the laptops.  Recently we have run into the problem that they are no longer able to print from their laptops and even from the desktop we have not been able to print.  I have had to reinstall the printer onto the desktop 2 times to make the printer work.  But then a week or 2 later the computer stops recognizing the printer and I will have to reinstall it.  The desktop is only 2 years old but it is barely used since everyone has a laptop.  Also a friend of ours says that by doing a disk defrag on the computer that it messes up anything that we have connected to the computer.  I strongly disagree with that statement and like I told my wife, if that were the case then the printer would have stopped working last year, but she takes this friends advice seriously and told me to stop the defrags completely.
    I am thinking that it may be something in the registry that is causing this problem.  Am I headed in the right direction or does anyone else have a different idea to correct this problem?
    Thanks

    Well, I think the problem is that the printer is getting a different IP address from the router periodically and the printer software cannot keep track of the printer.
    The best way to fix this is to reserve an IP address for the printer so that it has the same IP address all the time.  Do you need help doing this? 
    Unless I am missing something, this system is not using Bluetooth, but the Linksys 802.11 wireless system and defragging your hard drive has nothing to do with it (and is generally a waste of time, anyway).

  • I can't print from macintosh laptop unless I print first from my desktop. officejet 6500a

    i have a macintosh laptop. I can't print from it unless I print first from my desktop. officejet 6500a.
    it says: "communication failure. the computer is no longer able to communicate with the printer."
    Yet, once I print something from my desktop, I can print from the laptop just fine, until I turn one of the machines off...

    Is the printer connected to your wireless router?  What router?  What version of OS X?

  • I am trying to get my D1560 to print from my laptop.

    I was trying to get my D1560 to print from my laptop. On advice from the HP website, I uninstalled the printer, and downloaded the latest driver software. But when I extract the file (either the downloaded file or from the CD), nothing happens. The file extraction reaches 100%, then nothing. No error messages, no directions on what to do next, not even a kiss goodbye.
    How can I get the printer installed, and then print from a networked computer that is not directly attached to the print device? 
    I've taken two steps back. At least before, Windows (7, 64-bit, by the way) would recognize the printer, even though I couldn't print to the D1560.
    The print device is attached to my HP Slimline desktop. Does the Slimline have to be awake in order to print from my laptop?
    Also, I downloaded the HPPDU software, (before I uninstalled the printer) but since it can't find the printer, it can't solve the problem. That IS the problem - the computer can't find the printer.

  • Can no longer print from Photoshop CS^ have upgraded drivers error message reads There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents."

    I have upgraded my iMac to Yosemite but now my two Canon Printers no longer print from Photoshop CS6. I have upgraded the drivers. All other applications including Lightroom are fine. I am receiving an error message as follows:"There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents." How can I get the OS to return a list of printers to Photoshop when Photoshop requests a list.

    Have you printed to this printer from 10.10 before?  If so, check your connections.
