Iphoto printing - preview is landscape, but prints out portrait

This is a recurring issue when I print photos. The preview shows a landscape oriented picture, but it prints in portrait orientation. How do I correct this?
The settings for the current photo are as listed:
Brother MCF-J425W
US Letter
Color
Aspect Ratio: Custom
Photo Size: 4.8 x 6.8
iPhoto 9.6
OX S Yosemite

Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try printing again.
NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

Item on screen appears brilliant color, but printed version very dark and untrue to color.

I have recently received an invitation file for my wedding invitations which are in a very brilliant shade of purple. However, when I had them printed, they turned out a very dark, almost black/blue color. I converted the file from RGB to CMYK as directed, but no color change was observed. I even tried printing a copy at home and I received the same result. No matter how I play around with the shade, the color doesn't even come close to printing true to on-screen color. What am I doing wrong?!

Images appear fine in Photoshop cs6 and cc, but print too dark, and also show too dark in Windows picture viewer. How can I correct this? Is this a Photoshop setting issue or what?

Ok, look at your files in Photoshop. What is the profile assigned to them? You can find this out by going to the Status bar at the bottom, clicking on the right-pointing triangle and choosing document Profile from the list.
Then in Windows, go to your Control Panel > Color Management and add sRGB (if it isn't there) and select it as your default profile.
I hope that will work.

Colors in print preview not matching colors in soft proofing

Hi There,
Just wanted to print a new photo and realized that the colors in print preview do not match the colors in soft proofing. In both cases I selected the same icc profile and rendering method. The print colors matched the colors in print preview. I never had a problem so far. All new prints will be checked with soft proofing and adjusted when necessary. I never paid attention to the color rendition in print preview and all prints perfectly matched the colors from the soft proofing. I was surprised when my print came out of the printer and the colors weren't matching the soft proofing colors, but that of the print preview.
I don't understand why Photoshop renders the colors differently in the first place. Please see attached screenshot for the difference in the blue/cyan colors.
I would appreciate if anybody could point me in the right direction in what is causing this difference. I don't care if the print view colors will match the print, but I do care when soft proofing is not working.
Thank you.
Best regards,
D.

Here are some addtional details:
PS 13.1.2
Mac OS X 10.8.4
12 GB Ram
60 GB free disk space
I printed the same photo from two other computers (MacBook and iMac) with different PS versions (CS4 and CS5). The prints turned out identical to the first one which matches the print preview color rendition on my main computer (MacPro) running CS6. Strangely the colors in print preview of CS5 on the iMac renders the colors identical to the soft proofing colors.

HP LaserJet 200 color M251nw prints, but images are blurred.

Laserjet200 (HP LaserJet 200 color M251nw) prints, but images are blurred; sometimes the entire page and other times just the right half. Staples tech said the drum could be bad. Can this be corrected? Using W7 ultimate OS.

Hi @jimmanning ,
I see by your post that the images are blurred. I would like to help you.
Run a calibration on the printer.
On the printer touch the wrench, system setup, print quality, color calibration calibrate now.
Print a Diagnostics Page to see if you have the same results. Trying to determine if it is a hardware or software issue.
Go to Setup, Reports, arrow down and select Diagnostics Report.
I have provided a document with more steps for running a cleaning and checking print driver settings.
Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues.
Remove the toner and check to see if there is any toner on drum.
Make sure the paper type is selected to the media that you are using, not the default setting unspecified.
Please provide the following information so I can assist you better.
What were the results of Diagnostics Page and Print Quality Page?
Are you using Genuine HP Toner?
What are the Ink levels?
Was there any damage on the toners?
Have a nice day!

When I print a Word document to a shared printer, print preview looks fine but the printed page has too much blank space at the top and doesn't print the bottom few lines.

When I print a Word for Mac document to a shared printer (that is connected to my iMac) from my Macbook Pro, print preview looks fine but the printed page has too much blank space at the top and doesn't print the bottom few lines. I have tried to adjust the margins and the page setup settings but to no avail. It used to print fine until recently. Is there a way to fix it so that the printer prints what print preview shows?

I should add that when I e-mail this document to myself and print it directky from the iMac, it prints fine.

HP 4500 Envy won't Queue Text Documents of Any Kind (but prints test pages and pictures)

I have a brand new HP 4500 Envy that was working fine for a few weeks and now won't print text documents of any kind - .txt, .doc, .pdf, you name it. I can print pictures and test pages but that's it. I've already tried the HP Print Doctor, updating the drivers and the like, but none of these solutions work. I need to get this up and running quickly - any suggestions? --- Thanks

I have the same problem.
I think that it should be related with Windows 7 SP1.
I installed on 2 different laptops, one with Windows 7 and one with Windows 8 and there I can print all kind of type documents.
But on my HP 1120 can I not print any document, only jpeg and scan works.
And here I have Windows 7 SP.

Took photos with iphone 4s. Pic displays in picture preview, but not in camera roll. Any advice? Pic should be on phone somewhere.

Took photo with iphone 4s. Picture displays in picture preview on bottom left, but is not in camera roll. Pic should be in phone somewhere since it's in preview. Any advice?

Ok try this kennylebouef,
Open multitasking by double tapping the home button (at the bottom), a row of apps you've recently used should appear, tap and hold the photos app until it wiggles and displays an x, tap the x to close and then reopen the camera roll app. Let me know if it works. It's odd and frustrating, I know.

My photos are not printing right with adobe manages color but works when i use printer manages color. never had any issues untill a week ago.

my photos are not printing right with adobe manages color but works when i use printer manages color. never had any issues untill a week ago.

We use CS6, yes we calibrate using x-rite. I have always had adobe manage colors when printing. This problem just occurred, all my settings are the same as they have been for years. The only thing we did lately is do an update to CS6. We thought it might be our printer but when we use the printer manages color it works fine, The problem with adobe manages color is it is not blending the light highlights like on top of the cheeks with the colors around the cheeks and its putting a faint red between the two it just does not have a smooth transition. I printed a photo that I had printed 4 months ago with no issue, and this time it had the issue that I am dealing with now. Somehow the photo shop manages color is not getting the right info to my printer.
I set paper type
set quality
no color adjustment

Some barcodes blank in print preview, but printed correctly

Hi,
Very strange behaviour in a customers system - normally smartforms with barcode 128 are previewed and printed perfect. After a two monts productive use, customer reported a problem with preview - few barcodes are not previewed (showed as blank on form), but printed correctly. Count of problem barcodes is less than 1%.
For example:
- 'FLAGU01Z_01' barcode is previewed correctly
- 'FLAGRO00Z_03' barcode is blank on preview
Any suggestion about this?
Thanks in advise,
Hristo Hristov

Hi guys,
The catch is, when re-printed, it already appears. But after the batch job has been completed, this does not automatically appear.
This involves, output type of a delivery.
Thanks for your reply!

Print problem of print form_print preview ok, but print failed

Hi, gurus,
the problem is that i can preview my form but i can't print it out.
it seems to be problems with device type. I've already tried almost all device type but it still doesnot work.
Form property:
Preview Type: Print form only one side
XDP preview type: Acrobat 7 static
SPAD Configuration:
Output Device: Standard, PDF1
Host spool access method: F
Host Printer: _default
I am using Adobe Livecycle Designer 8.0 and adobe acrobat 8 professional.
Any help will be appreciated.

There's no need of and no logic in "printing" generated PDF to your Adobe PDF printer which creates PDF files. Why do you want to do that if u already have PDF? If you need to save PDF use save button on Adobe Reader toolbar or built-in functions of SAP solution to return PDF from ADS and save it to server or locally.
At the same time, printing PDF to your HP printer makes sense. Pitty it is not working.
Try experimenting with device types. Maybe create new Output Device, and use some HP device type like HPLJ1100 for it?
As for PDF device type all I can add is just the config of my PDF1 device type (just in case).
Device type PDF1
Name PDF ISO Latin-14.6D+
Attributes
SAPscript handling
Driver PDF1 PDF converter
Page printer Yes
List handling
Printer driver PDF1 PDF Converter
Argument Empty
Printer character set
1. Character set Printer POSTSCPT ISO 8859/1 (Latin 1)
Synt. character set 0
Print Controls
this screen contains a long list of device specific print controls
I'm afraid, that my knowledge on the topic are limited to what was already said.
Please ask you admin for more help.
