No longer able to print 5x7 on half page..and/ File shrink?
Hi,
I'd like to print a 5x7 sized photo/file on letter-sized (8.5x11) photo paper to use only half of the sheet.
I used to do this all the time in my old PSE2 program (I've only recently updated from 2 to PSE9). From that older print dialog box, in the little preview pane I was able to move the photo up/down/side-to-side (wherever I wished) and in the final print-out it would be prescisely where I placed it , saving space on the paper for a second print. Apparently this is no longer possible in the newer versions...? In PSE9 my print keeps coming out half printed, no matter what I ticked (landscape/port) or how I placed it.
Question: Is this no longer possible to do in the newer versions?
I tried working around this by creating a new file in the PSE9 editor and moving the orig 5x7 file into that one--via select-all>edit>copy and then pasting the 5x7 into the newly created 8.5x11 file...however the 5x7 did not retain its dimensions when placed into the 8.5x11 space. Maybe I could "resize" the layer? (if that possible?)
Question: What is causing the orig 5x7 to shrink to 4x5.6 when copied to the new file?
Thanks much for any enlighting

I am no longer able to create chapters in my Apple TV files
I am no longer able to create chapters in my Apple TV files. When I first started editing on the Mac (November 2009) I had a brand new iMac and Snow Leopard. With Snow Leopard came a 'special' version of QuickTime (QT X?) which were told not to update to 'Pro' (QT 7 Pro). My process was to use FCE with chapter markers to export my home videos to a QuickTime file. FCE created a beautiful .mov file with embedded visual chapters as I had marked them. It imported fine into iDVD. The next step was to 'Save As' within QuickTime and choose to save with the Apple TV profile. The .mov file would be converted and everything, including Chapters, would go with it. From Apple TV, I could peruse my home movies and dig deeper via chapters. Amazing and totally cool.
About 9 months ago, maybe a year, the chapters were no longer saving with the Apple TV format. This meant that each hour long home movie could not be accessed via chapters.
Was this functionality removed from QuickTime X? Is there any way to get it back? I am almost a year behind in my editing since I can no longer easily get the chapter markers in.
Thanks,
D.im glad that somebody is atleast trying. perhaps i need to be more clear.
i will step by step describe the issue in detail.
1) i open an email that contains an attachment .dxf or .pdf
2) i click on the attachment shown in the email and aprompt comes up asking if i want to open or save the attachment.
3) i select save. (by default it saves to a downloads folder. but i have also chosen to use other folders (when i did that it wouldnt save them)
4) i highlight the downloads arrow on the right top side of my browser and click it
5) it pulls down a list of the files that i USED to be able to click and drag onto my destop, or anyplace i chose
6) used to be when i clicked and held the left mouse button down on top of a file of my choosing it would highlight and as i began to drag, a ghost image would appear of the file i was dragging. showing a (/) symbol next to it showing i couldnt drop the file within the browser and a + simbol showing that i could drop the file when the file was hovering over a place where i could drop the file such as my desktop or other folder. now, when i click and hold on the file.... I DONT get anything. when i drag. nothing follows. while i am "dragging" in the area that is my browser, i get the pointy finger icon. as soon as i enter an area where i could have dropped the file as before, i get my standard cursor arrow.
its really as if the drag and drop feature just dosent work IN FIREFOX.
i can drag and drop files all day long everyplace else. -

Officejet j6415 winows 7prints half pages and pages of gibberish since reinstalled printer software
When reinstalling the printer software, there is always a fatal error with no ID number. I have tried all the troubleshoot options for the installation but they do not work. My printer can still print fully (rarely) but mostly prints half pages and pages of gibberish. There are no error messages on the printer. Help!

No longer able to print from wireless MacBook Pro to wired C7280
I originally piggy-backed this onto an existing thread thinking that it was the same issue. It looks like it was something else now, so I figured I probably ought to spin this off onto its own thread.
Details:
Printer: Photosmart C7280 All-in-One, connected to network via Ethernet, IP address 192.168.1.5 (confirmed with Network Menu > View Network Settings > Display Wired Summary)
Router: Verizon/Actiontec MI424-WR (Verizon FiOS) with
* Ethernet ports
* 802.11b and 11g with WPA encryption
Desktop: iMac with Mac OS 10.5.8, Ethernet connection. I originally installed the HP software from the CD when we got the 7280 a few years ago, but we've probably upgraded it since then.
My Laptop: MacBook Pro with Mac OS 10.5.8, wireless connection. I think the HP software was originally downloaded from hp.com (as opposed to the original CD).
Wife's Laptop: MacBook with Mac OS 10.6.3, wireless connection. HP software downloaded from hp.com.
We've been able to print from the laptops to the 7280 until several days ago. After that, anything sent from the laptops stayed on the printer queue without any reaction from the printer, even after the usual tricks (cycling power on printers, holding and unholding jobs, pausing and unpausing printers, etc.)
Our laptops seem to lose the wireless connection a bit more frequently than normal, and at first I thought that was the problem. Lately, however, I can't get anything to print even when the wireless connection stays solid. I can print from the iMac, though.
As noted above, my wife's MacBook has 10.6.3, so I'll try the instructions on other threads for uninstalling the HP software and using the built-in 10.6 drivers. If I can pry the MacBook away from my wife long enough :-)
Meanwhile, I've been trying to troubleshoot my own MacBook Pro. I can ping 192.168.1.5, and I can pull up the printer's web page by entering "192.168.1.5" in my web browser.
So I followed the instructions here:

(title: Mac OS X: Print Jobs are Stuck in the Print Queue and Will Not Print on a Networked Product)
I followed Solution 1 (Delete and readd printer) until I got to steps 7 and 8. The printer wasn't automatically added to the Printers list, so I clicked the Add button, but wasn't able to select my printer from the list. Some of the information in Solution 2 seemed to hint that I had a connectivity problem, and suggested that I look for network connectivity solutions. Unfortunately, all of the network connectivity FAQs referred to Windows-specific utilities, so I decided to uninstall the HP software (using HP Uninstaller). I downloaded HP_Installer_PSC7200_v9.7.1.dmg from hp.com and ran it, but here's what happened:
At the Select Device step, no devices appeared even though the printer was powered up and on the network. (As noted earlier, I can ping it.) I checked "My device is not listed" and clicked Continue; when "Photosmart C7200 series" appeared, I selected it.
At the "Select the Device Connection" subset, I selected "Network." (The "device" in this question is the printer--right?)
I went through the Install step.
No device was listed at the Setup step. I handled this the same way as the Select Device step ("My device is not listed", Continue, click "Photosmart C7200 series", Continue, select "Network", Continue.
This time, I got this dialog: "If your device is not listed, it is not supported by this installer. Please visit www.hp.com/support to download an installer, if one is available" even though this was the correct installer for C7200 and Mac 10.5.
Am I overlooking something? What should I try next?
This question was solved.
View Solution.It appears that the printer is OK and is on the network. Eventually you may want to set a static IP address for it, but let's get things working first.
The first thing I would try would be to reset the printing system on all the problem Macs:
- Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
- Right (control) click the print queue area and select Reset Printing System.
- Select the plus sign to re-add it. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
If this does not do it there may be something going on with the router. I have a few ideas if this is required. Let me know.

I am employed by HP -
Have a very recent Lenovo Ideapad Laptop running Windows 8.1. Connected via USB port to HP LaserJet Pro CM1415 frw Color MFP Printer. Was able to print fine nearly 2 weeks ago, but something recently happened - either a new windows or office 2013 update
or perhaps I blew away a certain file by mistake. I can see the printer installed but cannot print to it from anything (Word, Notepad, IE, Firefox etc.). The one thing to note is that usually when I plug or unplug a USB related device, Windows 8.1 recognizes
this and makes a certain chime noise, but with the printer USB cable it never makes that noise - making me think that it never fully recognizes the printer. Also when I select the printer (from within the control panel) and right click for properties (via
admin rights) It never lets me fully connect to it.
I have tried all the usual remedies - remove, install all drivers, reinstall printer, Windows update, start/stop print spooler and all other printer related services, etc. Its really annoying because this printer was working fine nearly 2
weeks ago. Looking for any advice now. Thanks.
-ChrisHi Chris,
à
I have tried all the usual remedies - remove, install all drivers, reinstall printer, Windows update, start/stop print spooler and all other printer related services, etc.
I noticed that you had reinstalled the printer. Just a confirmation, when un-install this printer, please check
if this printer still exist in registry. For more details, please refer to following KB.
Registry entries for printing
If printer entry still exist in registry, please delete that printer entry and re-install this printer again,
then check if this issue still exists. (Please backup registry entries before operating registry. It will help us to avoid unexpected issue.)
àand now see
message Active Directory Domain Services is not available
By the way, would you please let me know where/when get this
Active Directory Domain Services is not available error message? Or provide a screenshot of it?
(Please hide all protected or private information) Please check if all services are running correctly on the computer. Meanwhile, please refer to following article and check if can help you.

Problem: Active Directory Domain Services is currently unavailable – Why does windows say no printers are installed?

MacBook no longer able to print wirelessly?
Hello
I have an issue that I can't seem to come up with a reason for or a resolution. I apologize in advance for the length of this posting.
We have a Dell Laptop that is connected wirelessly to a Brother MFC-420CN printer. We have a Linksys Router. Previously, we'd also had been connected wirelessly to the same printer and our MacBook. The Mac was connected to the printer through an Internet/IPP connection, using the IP address. We had no trouble printing from the Mac.
On Christmas, the Mac stopped printing wirelessly to the printer. We got the message "Failed to connect to device." We tried re-installing, etc, and finally went out and bought a USB/printer cable and connected hardwire Mac to printer, and after that, it again printed wirelessly.
Problem solved, right?
Now, its happened again, but we cannot get the Mac and the printer to talk to each other. Each time we try, we get the same message "Failed to connect to device" but nothing has changed! This has happened literally overnight, one night it prints wirelessly, the next day it doesn't. Even connecting hardwire between the Mac & printer does not help this time. We've tried everything we can think of.
No issues w/the PC and printer at all.
Additional info: The PC and the Mac are NOT networked w/each other. Also, when we enter in the original IP address under the Mac printer installation, it immediately identifies the printer as the MFC-420CN, however, this is NOT the same IP address as on the Linksys router, but if we put in the IP address on the router, it no longer recognizes the printer.Printer sharing is enabled on the PC, although it wasn't previously. We can print hardwire from the Mac. Finally, the router and the Mac work fine wirelessly for the internet.
We're literally at a loss. It worked fine, then overnight, it doesn't.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated! I am a new Mac user so please bear with me!
Mac Book Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)Hello
We weren't using that method to add the printer, however, we did try using both the original IP address as well as the one we see when we open the router properties, and still no luck.
Does the printer have its on IP address? Separate from the router IP address? If so, how would we find it?
Thanks

Windows Service no longer able to print PDF files using Adobe Reader 11.0.07.79
We have a Windows Service that watches a folder for PDF files to be deposited. Once awakened, it executes the Adobe Reader in command line mode to print the PDF files to secure check printers. The Windows Service was working fine with 11.0.06.70 but no longer works with 11.0.07.79.
There are no event viewer errors or errors returned to our Process.Start() call. The Windows Service is running under the identify of an administrator account and has explicit full access to the printer. We have also tried the local computer's Administrator account as well as the default Local Service, but none work.
Using ProcMon to examine the failure, it showed Adobe Reader making many successful registry and file accesses. Adobe Reader then creates a new process, another instance of itself to read in the PDF file and print to the printer. However, ProcMon only shows Adobe Reader accessing AcroRd32.exe, syswow.dll (sp) and ntdll.dll and then the thread and process immediately exits with an exit code of 0 (no file or registry accesses). So, something is causing the instantiated process to fail immediately.
After more research and trying many things, we disabled "Enable Protected Mode at Startup". This enabled things to work again.
We are concerned that disabling this feature might expose security concerns for our customers.
We are suspecting that some security concerns were tightened with 11.0.07.79 that has inadvertently caused printing from Windows Services to falsely be identified as security violations. Can you please investigate and provide a resolution?
Thank you.

[email protected]Hi,
Can you please give the following details:
1) Command (given in command line)used to print PDF files?
2) Is the issue reproducible with other printers as well?
3) Is directly printing the PDF from that folder using command line i.e without using windows service works fine or not?
Thanks,

No longer able to print wirelessly
Hi
I have and iPhone 4S and an HP Photosmart 7510 printer and a Three Mifi. I used to be able to print from my laptop and iPhone to my printer with no problem - until I updated my printer. Now I'm unable to print from either wirelessly.
My iPhone detects the printer but when it goes to print it says the printer is offline - but it isn't.
I've set the printer to print using HPs email address and this works but I've tried using the HP app and it says it can't find the printer.

No longer able to print via wireless network
I have an HP OfficeJet 6500A Plus E710N and have had it connected to my wifi network and working properly for some time now. Recently, print jobs would queue up and nothing would print b/c it said the printer could not be found on the network.
I deleted the printer from my print preferences and tried to reconnect, but I can't see the printer on the network.
I have powered off the printer, reset the wifi conncetion (printer still sees router), and properly entered the WEP key.
Does anyone have any suggestions?I inadvertently changed my networks name from "esteroal" to HOME-5022. Both were listed thru EWS. Now I can no longer access my printer network or EWS since I have no IP address for the new network (HOME-5022). HELP

hello,
I am using report builder 6i. I want print on half page but the printer LQ-300+ uses full page. i want to print two receipts from one pages.
Thanks
iftikharMake sure your frames are set up to handle that kind of printing. Check to make sure that 2 repeating frames will fit into one page. There are properties on the repeating frames and regular frames that can affect this, like "Page Protect", "Page Break Before/After","Maximum Records per Page" or "Space Between Frames" (these are just some). You also might want to check the height and width of you section. You can increase the height until you see 2 show up, that tells you your repeating frame is too big for 2 records for your original height.

Not able to print chart from second page onwards..
I'm trying to print chart in xml publisher report. Requirement is to print chart for each employee one next page. I'm able to print chart using preview, but not in concurrent program output. Rest of the details are printed without any issue.
Can some please help on how to print chart repeatedly in single report.
Data may look like
<G_EMP_NO>
<Data>xyz</Data>
</G_EMP_NO>
<G_EMP_NO>
<Data>abd</Data>
</G_EMP_NO>
....Thanks in advance!!
Edited by: user641008 on Aug 1, 2011 12:21 AMI'm not near my Epson right now, so I don't have the exact details. But I suggest you try this:
Use Epson iPrint. Click on the WorkForce 520 printer, then choose "Advanced Options" down near the bottom.
As I recall, one of the options has to do with setting up the printer to work with iPrint (or maybe verifying it's been set up correctly).
See if that helps.
By the way, there is also a "Firmware Update" there in those Advanced Options. You should definitely do that as well. -
Print JTable with Multiple pages and rows
I took the printing example at http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Programming/JDCBook/advprint.html#pe and modified it a bit to include the following:
1) To Print Multiple pages
2) To wrap lines that is too long for the column
3) To print with a more proffesional style, so that it doesn't look like a screen capture is printed
4) To align the numbers to the right and center column headings
