Non printing items still printing

Hi.
I have created in Indesign a 8 page pdf with hyperlinks (as a nav bar on each page)
I have set the colourful headers and footers on each page as non printing.
I am trying to create a PDF that will be colourful on screen, but when the browser goes to print it out the headers and footers will not output.
trouble is, they are still printing
I have tried exporting as smallest file/ high quality print and non printing options are ticked (otherwise the headers dont appear at all on screen)
can this be done? if so, how?
I have attached a sample file it has two objects in it:
1) some text
2) a magenta rectangle place over the text
I am trying to acheive a pint rectangle on screen, and when the pdf is printed, no rectangle just text.

You can't add a hyperlink to a button - but you can Convert something to a button and then give it a URL to go to when clicked.
Basically you don't select the button and choose a hyperlink destionation the way you would with text, that won't work.
Here's what to do.
Select the frame that will be the button.
Go to Window>Interactive>States
In the fly menu for the States panel (top right of panel) click the arrow pointing down, and a sub menu pops out.
Go to Button Options and to the tab that says "Behaviors"
Event: Mouse Down
Behavior: Go to URL
URL: (insert the url)
And then DON'T FORGET TO CLICK ADD at the bottom of the dialog box.
And that's it. When you make the pdf make sure you inlcude interactive and bookmarks and everything else you need.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8100 unable to communicate with printer, but still prints

    Hello,
    I have an Officejet Pro 8100 connected to a Windows XP SP3 computer via USB.  
    When installing  I downloaded the latest drivers off the HP webiste and followed the instructions for installing the printer and connecting via USB.  While installing I only installed the basic print driver.
    The printer appeared to install correctly.
    When printing (test page, or from other programs such as Word or Excell), the printer will actually print the requested document, however, an error box will pop up saying "Unable to communicate with printer".  The only option on the error box is the cancel the current print job.
    Before cancelling the print job, even though the printer actually printed the document, I can still see the document in the print queue until I click the "Cancel" button on the error box.
    I have deleted the printer, uninstalled and reinstalled twice, but the issue persists.
    Any ideas?

    Hi aconway,
    I hate to hear you are having issues.  This could be caused by a port issue, bad USB cable/hub/switch connection, or possibly a spooler or driver issue.  Click Here to run the print and scan doctor (select OS, then click the + sign beside utility diagnostic tools, click the download button next to print and scan doctor). If you would like to learn more about your product, Click Here. 
    Suggestions:
    1. Run the print and scan doctor to identify any port issues
    2. Connect unit directly to PC with new USB cable that meets specifications(no longer than 4-6ft). 
    3. Remove any hubs or switches if being used.  
    Hope this helps!

  • IPad 3 has stopped printing to my AirPrint printer iPhone still prints

    My iPad 3 has stopped printing to my AirPrint printer.  My iPhone still prints things ok.  It worked before and it shows the printer as available when I send to print and says it is contacting the printer then preparing then just nothing happens.  Nothing has changed with my network and my partners iPad 3 still prints stuff fine. Help!

    Reboot the iPad 3.
    If it still doesn't work, reboot the router.

  • Small AirPrint printer that still prints 8.5x11 sheets

    Hi All,
    I am looking for a printer with the smallest foot print possible that is an airprinter (so that I can print from my iPad), but it still needs to be able to print 8.5 x 11 size paper.  Please point me in the right direction!  I'm also not looking to spend a fortune, under $150 would be appreciated as I am just going to use it to print receipts/invoices.
    Thanks!

    Pick a printer from this list:

  • 2008 R2 Printer Event ID 372 - Print Job Still Prints I Can't Stop These Errors From Occuring

    I keep getting the following error 372 on one of my DC's that runs the network printers.  As it says on the bottom of the error the page prints just fine but I can't get it to stop and I can't find a reason for this to happen.  I have 5 identical
    servers in a site based forest and this is the only server I have getting these errors.  I can not find any difference in software versions, configs or security.  Everything is setup using x86/64 drivers and is deployed via GPO. 
    The document Untitled1, owned by wa-material, failed to print on printer wa-rec1-053. Try to print the document again, or restart the print spooler.
    Data type: IMF.
    Size of the spool file in bytes: 34080.
    Number of bytes printed: 34080.
    Total number of pages in the document: 1.
    Number of pages printed: 0.
    Client computer: WA-DOCK. Win32 error code returned by the print processor: 0. The operation completed successfully.
    This same server also had an odd problem with access denied issues to our 2008 terminal servers.  I had to use this article to give extra permissions to Domain\Users on the printer spool directory in order for it work.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968605/en-us

    Hi,
    Regarding the error you received, it can be caused by one of the following factors.
    The printer is not reachable on the network
    Windows cannot allocate sufficient memory
    There was invalid or incomplete data received by the print spooler
    A driver upgrade failed
    There is a bad printer device driver
    At this time, I suggest you could refer to the following article for troubleshooting.
    Event ID 372 — Print Spooler Status

  • MIGO Print label WEE1 for non stock items from GR for PO

    Hi,
    I added logic to print new label into printing program MZ07DETI which is printing labels for stock items. My label is for non stock items. The problem is that for non stock items printing process is not triggered. I created PO with Account Assign. Category F, P or K no material number and no storage location. For this type of PO no print possible during GR posting. Is any set up available in IMG to make it work. I appreciate any response.

    Hi,
    Please check up if there is any default value at the plant level;in case of such default,the system will post to the GL Account defaulted,not with standing the "standard item category".Better checkup if any cost center /order has been assigned.
    The GL item is defaulted thro'the item category.If both the goods and services have been defaulted to the same GL  Account,then not with standing the type [ie] whether goods or services,the system will post tot he same GL Acct.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards.

  • How do I install a networked non-post script Ricoh printer?

    Hi,
    I am relatively new to Macs, and I am having trouble installing a networked Ricoh Aficio MP C3501 (non-PostScript) printer.  It seems the native driver is for PostScript version of this printer only.  I am running a new MacBook Air.
    When I try to add printer via IP address & connect, I get this message:
    "Unable to verify the printer on your network.
    Unable to connect to ‘10.253.97.48’ due to an error. Would you still like to create the printer?"
    I have tried the steps here, with no success:
    http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/macosx/pxlmon o#pxlmono_1.6_for_Mac_OS_X_10.3.x_.28Panther.29_-_Mac_OS_X_10.8.x_.28Mountain_Li on.29
    I am assuming because of some of the changes made in Yosemite.'
    I found this fix, but it would appear to only work if you had the printer installed on Mac PRIOR to Yosemite, and this would repair the "broken connection":
    Ricoh MP C2500 not printing after upgrading to Yosemite
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Chuck

    Download the mac driver for your printer, from your printer manufacturer.

  • Items in print cue can't be deleted!

    Our HP Laserjet 1200 suddenly refused to print. I was printing a pdf document using Preview. That usually works good. I tried several times and nothing happened. Printer is on and connection is okay. So I open the print window and there's the printer cue with 5 items in a row waiting to be printed for the 5 times I tried to print the pdf.
    So I delete the 5 items one by one. I try to print a MicrosoftWord document and the 5 pdf items I deleted reappear! I can't delete them. I reboot and they still won't go away.
    Printer problems are as frustrating as network problems and the counterintuitive Apple print window and printer setup window don't help. But what could make deleted items reappear?
    Thanx,
    Ken

    Turning the printer off and on again solved the problem. Duh! Well it doesn't have an off/on button, you have to unplug it. Thanx for the suggestion. I tend to overlook the obvious. I still don't know why it stalled.

  • Printing Non Modal External Window - print out additional blank page

    Hi All,
    I am printing out a content of a web dynpro view as a non modal external window with the browser print functionality.
    Even if the content of the web dynpro view is not more than the half of a page the browser print functionality prints 2 pages. The second page is a blank page.
    I tried to change the external window size in web dynpro, but it is still printing 2 pages.
    How can I set / configure the browser print functionality, so it prints only the page that contains the web dynpro view content?
    Thanks,
    Yasar

    Hi,
    I'm guessing the concurrent program is outputting text (character mode) as opposed to PDF?
    This could be a number of reasons:
    1. Printer driver issue, e.g. the number of lines printed on the page is more than is defined for the printer driver: Try reducing the "Rows" on the current program definition
    2. Printer PRT issue, extra page break could be being inserted.
    3. The "box" in the report definition containing the address could be being expanding due to the extra address line, but not enough space so it forces a new page to be printed.

  • HT4197 1st. I don't have internet. 2nd. I was told I could still print from my iPad to my canon MG3520. Can anyone help me?

    Need help. 1st. I don't have internet. 2nd. I was told I could still print from my iPad to my canon MG3520. Can anyone help me?  I don't know what operating system I'm using. Thank you for any ideas. If not able to print without internet, please let me know. I can't get my iPad to find my printer. I can go to a friend who has the internet. Thanks again for any help.

    You don't need to be connected to the internet to be able to print. But you do need a router so you can connect wirelessly. You could get a portable router.

    Thank you once again Matthew. I understand the importance of being thourough and followed your instruction exactly. I really thought that this would solve it and was ready to click 'This solved my question'. However I still have the same print options as before, no 'A1 on the roll'.
    Although, when I copied:
    'sudo pkgutil --forget org.linuxprinting.foomatic-rip'
    into Terminal it did say somehting along the lines of 'nothing found' (sorry I didnt copy the text). Could this be part of the issue?
    In this case the instructions were incorrect.  I forgot that the uninstaller would run that command.  The reason for that command was to let the system know that foomatic-rip 4.0.6 had been removed.  I am sure that you were able to then install foomatic-rip version 3.43.2.15.  There are two ways to confirm that the older version is now installed.  First, if you can print at all, it is present.  You could also copy and paste the following command in the Terminal.  It should respond with the version that is installed:
    pkgutil --pkg-info org.linuxprinting.foomatic-rip | grep version
    Do I need to change the PPD at all?
    There is no need to change the PPD.  PPDs are reflective of the software (drivers) that are called from the PPD.  You can put anything you want in the PPD.  If that capability is not in the driver, having it in the PPD won't make it work.
    Setting a job to print from A1 Roll Paper is a two step process.  First you select the Paper Size which is A1.
    Then look under the pop up menu below Paper Size for an item called Paper Feed.
    Select Paper Feed.  Then you will be able to select where/how the paper is being fed to the printer.  This is where you can choose Roll Paper (Cut) or Roll Paper (No Cut) among other choices.
    Other drivers may have A1 Roll Paper listed under Paper Size.  Perhaps that is how the HP driver was.  There would still have had to be a place, then to check whether or not you wanted the paper to be cut and/or whether you were feeding sheets of paper from one of the other paths.
    Let us know if you can find all the options now and that you are able to keep your normal workflow.

  • HT2250 I have been able to get my MacBook Pro to print wirelessly through my Airport device. How do I make it so other computers (non-Mac) can also print wirelessly as well? They are able to connect through my wireless network but can't print.

    Well, you could install the drivers to the wireless printer in you other computers.
