OSX Printing Problems after Installing Bonjour for Windows in Parallels

Since I installed Parallels a few weeks ago I had no need to print from Windows. Yesterday I had need so I installed the Apple Bonjour for Windows and the necessary print driver (Brother HL-1430) and was able to print.
The issue I have is that I can no longer print from OS-X. In fact every time I try and print from whatever program the program quits unexpectedly. I have tried all the solution offered on Apple's support web site but to no avail. My printer is connected wirelessly via an Airport Express. This works fine for Parallels with Windows XP and for our two other Macs. It just does not work with my iMac and this is only since I installed Bonjour for Windows on this machine.
Can anyone help with a solution?

Bonjour for Windows in Parallels stops printing in OSX

Since I installed Parallels a few weeks ago I had no need to print from Windows. Yesterday I had need so I installed the Apple Bonjour for Windows and the necessary print driver (Brother HL-1430) and was able to print from within Windows.
The issue I have is that I can no longer print from OS-X. In fact every time I try and print from whatever program the program quits unexpectedly. The same happens if I try using Page Setup.
I have tried all the solution offered on Apple's support web site but to no avail. Reinstalled drivers the lot. The printer shows up in About this Mac.

Pahu,
I already have an Epson Photo 900 attached via USB, besides the wireless Brother. As the print dialogue window is not appearing I don't get the chance to select either.
I have tried you suggestion and deleted drivers, reset printing etc. and regrettably no change. Here is the first 10 or so lines from the crash report when printing from Firefox;

Printing problems after installing the Epson Printer Driver 2.16

Has anyone experienced any problems after installing the Epson Printer Driver 2.16 through Software Update? I am having problems printing. It denotes an error message, specifically the rastertoescpii.app isn't working?

Oops, wanted everyone to know that the driver that Software Update downloaded and installed was 2.18, not 2.16 (which was the last one that worked for me). I just got done downloading the 2.18 driver directly from the Apple support website and installing it. Guess what? My printer is now working and everything is fine. If you are having issues, I suggest this route. Guess I solved my own problem, but hope this helps someone else.

Outlook 2010 won't open after installing icloud for windows

Hi,
Installed icloud for windows at work this morning after moving my MM account to icloud at home on my MBP.
Installed ok but after ticking the mail, contacts, calendar and bookmark boxes on icloud for windows Outlook 2010 starts but won't open and stays on the "Processing..." for a long time before I close it.
Also the icloud for windows control panel won't reopen except the time it opens after installation. I have tried removing it and rebooting but after it's installed, if you close the control panel it won't reopen although it's still running in Task Manager. Closing it in Task Manager and restarting doesn't make a difference.
Currently I removed, rebooted and reinstalled and only have the bookmarks ticked and outlook works ok but the control panel still won't reopen.
I am on a exchange server so don't know if this is part of the problem. Not real worried about mail but would like calendars working again.
Very thankful for any help you can offer.

I had the same problem after successfully moving from MobileMe to iCloud yesterday on my PC, ipad and iphone.
Today I couldn't open Outlook 2010. An Outlook dialogue box for my MobileMe email account kept asking for the email password, and although I put the password in, it kept re-appearing.
I turned off Norton spam temporarily, because I noticed Outlook was stuck processing the Norton plug ins at opening, and managed to open Outlook but the programme crashed every time I tried to access my email account settings (I thought I would try to delete the MobileMe email account).
I then opened the Control Panel for iCloud and unchecked the Mail with Outlook box, which has enabled Outlook to work again. The @me.com email account was gone when I checked the email accounts. I never needed to use the @me.com email account anyway.
How frustrating and such a waste of my time.
Does anyone know what difference it makes if the MobileMe/iCloud email is not connected to Outlook? Does it really make any difference when you have your email accounts in the iPad and iPhone anyway?

Printing problem after installing Adobe Reader XI.

After installing Adobe Reader XI. I can not just print a document from email attachment without saving it to a "save the file as". Where before was able to just print the document. There is no reason I need to save these documents being printed. How do I get back to an older version that allowed me to do this?

Thanks for your response. I found the problem 1/2hr after posting my question. It had to do with the setting after hitting the print que. After installing the Adobe Reader XI the setting for destination in the print window change to save as PDF. Before it was set to my default printer. I never knew that there was other places for these documents could go. Never had to use them either.
Again thanks for responding.

Printing problems after installing Security Update 2015-002

After installing Security Update 2015-002 on three separate computers on two different WiFi networks, printers on the network are losing their connections to the computers that can print to them. We have experienced this on a network running a Canon printer and an HP printer - both have disappeared on the network although the printer suggests it is still connected to the network. The same thing has happened on a separate network I manage with a single HP printer on that network. I have tried removing the printers, resetting the printers etc. Nothing is working. I can get one print out of a printer when I turn the printer off and then on. Three minutes later the printer is no longer connected to the computer - although still connected to the network. Please Help.

I think I have figured out that it is in fact the Apple Extreme Base Station that is losing the printer. It is very odd because the printer is connected to the Wifi. My computer is connected to the WiFi and connecting to the internet. The Router for the internet can see the printer. An Apple Extreme is then connected via a network cable in Bridge mode to the router. When I turned the power off the The Apple Extreme and then restored power it all worked. was still working this morning, but again this afternoon I needed to reboot Apple Extreme. It is quite strange that this is happening on two different Networks in different parts of the country at the same time. Maybe the Security Update is somehow affecting/blocking communication with the printer? I just don't know enough. These networks have been up and running with the same printers and computers for years with zero problems - all of a sudden we have the same problem on both Networks.
Any help will be very much appreciated.

Problem re-installing AE for windows

I have been using Airport Express (AE)for over two years without a problem. During this time I have been able to upgrade and configure the unit without problems.
Recently I had to re-install windows. Therefore I needed to re-configure the AE. From the apple website I downloaded two firmwares for the AE: 6.1.1 and 6.3. I also needed the AE Admin Utility. I only found the "Airport Extreme Admin Utility 3.2"
So, here what I did:
1) I installed firmware 6.3. Then I installed the Admin Utility mentioned above. The Utility found my AE but everytime I press configure it asked for a password. Since I did a hard reset in the AE the "admin" password should have worked but it didn't. (BTW, I re-started the PC and the AE many times, and re-installed the above software several times). But I was not able to configure the AE.
2) I then tried firmware 6.1.1 and with the same Utility I was able to configure the AE. I was able to name the AE (i.e. Living Room) and enter WEP password. However I didn't find the option to "Join wireless network" which I think is necessary. This did happen because I was using a Airport EXTREME Utlity? If so, where I can downoad the Airport EXPRESS Utility?
Any takers?
Thanks

Problems after installing Quicktime for java

Hi
I just recently installed Quicktime for java on my computer. Previous to this installation I was running j2sdk1.4.2_03 and this was working fine (compiling and running code) for me. But since I installed QTjava all I can do is compile code.
I have reset my class path back to
CLASSPTH = .;C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03\bin
and my path to
PATH = ........... .;C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03\bin
When I try to run a simple helloworld programe I get the following error
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main
I konw that this is something to do with my classpath, but I cann't figure out what is wrong, any ideas would be greatly appricatied
Donal

the programe I am running is as follows
public class hello
{     public hello ()
     public void main (String [] args)
     {     System.out.println ("Hello world");
It compiles fine but I get the above error when I run it. It is the same for other more complex programes I have written which contain a main mettod.

Printing problems after installing OS X version 10.4.8

I reciently upgraded to OS X version 10.4.8. After doing so, my Dymo Twin Turbo Label Writter won't print. I also am having problems using my Epson RX700 All-In-One Printer Scanner where the scanner cannot be found.
Both of these printers worked flawlessly prior to this update in version 10.4.6.
I have tried re-installing printer drivers, deleting the printers and re-adding them and cannot seem to get them working correctly. I have even tried doing a printer reset from the printer setup utilities.
Does anyone know how to fix these issues?

Start by downloading the 10.4.8 Combination (Combo) Updater from Apple and re-updating.

Printer shared from my Mac is not seen from a PC using Bonjour for Windows

I am going nuts here, hope someone can help.
I have a Canon multi-function printer (MP830) attached via USB to a Mac G4 (with Mac OS X Tiger). At one time, I had it set so a Windows 2000 PC could print to it but deinstalled it after some printing issues, and have been unable to get to working again. The machines are connected together via a Netgear router. As far as I know, everything is the same as it was before, yet I cannot get it to work as it did.
- The printer works fine from the Mac.
- If I connect the printer to the PC, it works fine.
- On the PC, using Bonjour for Windows, I cannot see the printer attached to the Mac but I can see, and print to, an Epson printer that is attached to a different Mac.
- And from the second Mac, I am able to see -- but not successfully print to -- the Canon printer. The print job stays in the queue of the second Mac and says "Unable to connect to SAMBA host, will retry... Error: Connection failed with error."
- I have tried:
-- de-installing and re-installing Bonjour for Windows and the Canon print drivers on the PC
-- and have de-installed and re-installed the Canon drivers on the Mac
-- I have removed and re-added the Canon printer on the Mac. Printer Sharing is on, and this printer is checked in the Sharing box.
Any suggestions?
G4 Quicksilver and Dell PC with Windows 2000 Mac OS X (10.4.9) Canon MP830

Thank you. Those are beautifully written procedures.
Looks like it's a network issue. I reach the step, "Adding a printer using the wizard":
You must enter the following URL, you must use the Queue Name you noted down earlier
http://<IP address of Mac>:631/printers/Queue Name
which I do, entering
http://192.168.0.4:631/printers/MP830
and I get the following error:
"Could not connect to the printer. You either entered a printer name that was incorrect or the specified printer is no longer connected to the server."
And then I am toast!
Using the other procedure, I simply don't see the Mac's printers in the Bonjour Wizard's "Browse for Bonjour Printers" window.
Not sure where to go from here -- any ideas?
The Mac's IP (set via DHCP) is 192.168.0.4, subnet mask 255.255.255.0. The PC is 192.168.0.5, I can't find the subnet mask.
Pretty sure it's a network config issue, especially isnce I can Bonjour to my other Mac.
TIA...

Bonjour for windows gives this error - You do not have sufficient access...

I installed Bonjour for windows on a PC running XP. When I run the Bonjour app from windows I can see the printer I wish to connect to. It is shared off of my G3 server. When I try to connect I get the following error,
"You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer"
I have done some research through Apple's info database and found,
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302408
I followed the instructions and still I get the same error. I have rebooted the PC deleted all the printers under the printer window. But no luck. I found a similar request by another apple forum user. His issue was the same but he was using 'Parallels' emulator. But no solution was provided.
Any suggestions?

Well this is what I've done to date to try to resolve this issue.
I uninstalled Bonjour for Windows from my PC. I checked Apples support pages dealing with Bonjour for Windows (BfW). As suggested I deleted all printers in my printer window, (to delete all possible print Queues). I updated my Windows to the latest patch for XP. I reinstalled BfW, with the XP Firewall turned on. It is suggested that BfW will make the necessary changes to the XP firewall to allow traffic going through port 5353. I have tried more than one printer off of my G3 and I double checked my external router port restrictions, and I turned off the firewall on my G3, shared mt printers in OS X, and even turned on windows file sharing. I even updated my G3 to 10.4.8
I pinged my G3 from my XP machine it's there. Also I can see the G3 with it's printers when I browse the network from the XP box. Also I'm on the same local subnet 192.168.2.x
The only thing I have not done yet is see if it is possible to ping a bonjour host (my G3) from a bonjour client (XP box). That would at least verifiy the 5353ports.
Anyone have a bonjour utility to do that? Probably have to run in a Windows enviroment. Or can a ping packet be directed to use a particular port?

USB Printers and Bonjour for Windows

Hi
I have an Epson Photo RX500 printer scanner attached via USB to my eMac. I am planning to upgrade to Tiger (OS X 10.4.4) and would like to use Bonjour to allow PCs on my home LAN access the printer.
My question is "Is the RX500 compatible with Bonjours or can only certain printers by used, and if so whgere can I find out which printers are Bonjour enabled?"
Many thanks
Mick

Installing Bonjour for Windows on your PCs will allow them to discover the Epson Printer but not in the way you think.
The Epson Photo RX500 does not have direct support for Bonjour (Zeroconf), only network printers can be configured to support it.
In your case, upgrading to Tiger (10.4.x) and attaching the printer to that Mac and turning on printer sharing will allow the PCs to discover the printer connected to the Mac.
Make sure you install the drivers for the printer on the PCs, if they don't already come with them, so the PCs know the features available in the printer.

Bonjour for Windows HELP!

I have a Brother Printer connected to an Airport Express. All God's Macs print fine.
I installed Bonjour for Windows on the toy Dells in the house. I run the Printer Wizard from the Bonjour folder and the Brother Printer shows up. I choose it, I get hourglass, Brother Printer disappears.
Any thoughts?

I'd suggest you try asking in the Bonjour for Windows forum. You'll probably be more likely to get help there.
Good luck.
