Pasta Printer Setup

Hi,
I configured HP Laser Jet 1022n Printer in Linux and setup the printer in Oracle Apps 11i ( 11.5.10.2)
By Default, PASTA is configured in 11.5.10.2..right...
In the printer registration, I have given printer type as ---Pasta Unviersal Printer Type.
My Display is setup correctly in the server...
Can I print PDF Reports using default PASTA Setups comes with installation...
Do I need to do any changes in pasta.cfg configuration file to print PDF Reports...
Can I print any reports with any styles using this --Pasta Universal Printer Type....

when I change the concurrent program (active users) output to postscript, and run the report. It is not opening the output file, a flash screen comes and disappears...but as said above, this postscript output file is able to print from os.Make sure you do the following:
- Disable all pop-up blockers programs
- Add the application URL to the trusted sites list from the browser

Thanks for you support hussein,You're welcome!
So finally, we can conclude that, either we have to go for XML Publisher reports? does it require license on 11i?No.
How to Print new PDF reports directly from Applications Doc ID: 335514.1
from the above document
5. If the character set of your installation is UTF8, Pasta is required for all of your printing,
regardless of the output format being used. The printing chapter of the Oracle Applications System
Administrator's Guide states, "In order to print reports with the UFT8 character set, you 'must'
configure PASTA".can you sched some light on this, where will we use PASTA as stated above? confused?
Pasta is required on instances using the UTF8 character set. Currently, Oracle Apps supports PDF output for viewing only (Bug 1243042) so PDF is intended for viewing only directly from Applications and printing PDF directly from the concurrent manager is not supported. So, what you need to do here is to have PASTA installed, and use one of the following methods:
1) Use PostScript format instead of PDF (postscript reports work perfectly here with UTF8 and Arabic language)
2) Use XML Publisher

Hi there
We are in the middle of migration of Oracle 11i (11.5.10.2) From UNIX to LINUX, The DBA setup printer on UNIX and they all are working fine , and the same printer DBA setup for LINUX, and users are able to print reports on the same printer, but some how I get following warning in my FSG
Output is not being printed because:
Program failed to set the report print style
And In AutoSelect program in Payment Batch (Payables) I was getting following error.
An error occurred in getting printer driver information from the database for printer type --PASTA Universal Printer Type and print style DYNAMICPORTRAIT

Solution:-
SO What I did I removed the User Profile Value for Profile Printer, and now the AutoSelect program is working fine...
My Concern is that "Did we setup Printer properly for LINUX?"
How I am going to find out that Printer (Driver) is Setup properly?
What else I can Check?
Any Inputs Appreciated.
Thanks
ASIM

What if you change the driver name to something else, does it work?
- Login to System Administrator Responsibility
- Navigate to Install > Printer > Types
- Query "--PASTA Universal Printer Type"
- For Style DYNAMICPORTRAIT, change the driver to PASTA_PORTRAIT (or any other driver name)
- Bounce the CM
- Check then

C6180 does not appear in my list of printers in Printer setup utility (mac OS X 10.4.11)

My C6180 was printing slowly so I followed the steps in the forum (unplugging, holding down the buttons, etc. ... Shut down, restart, etc.) Now it doesn't appear in my list of available printers when I try to set up again in the Printer Setup Utility. My software is updated. How to I get it in the list. I've been around in circles and I may have messed up some settings in trying to solve this. I have to print stuff for work. Freaking out a little. Help.

Hello,
Thanks for the post. Murphy's Law, as soon as you really need to print something for work, this happens!! I've pasted a link below that should help you resolve this one. I hope this helps..........GOOD LUCK!

"Printer Setup Utility" is missing...can I download it somewhere?

I recently "uninstalled" my HP printer's software. (Photosmart C4180) I've been having trouble printing, and have had to reinstall the software twice in the past several months to get it working again. However, now I can't get it to work at all. I've searched my entire hard drive, and there is no "Printer Setup Utility" to be found. I DO recall accessing it earlier, when checking out my Utilities folder. Somehow it has now disappeared. I can't seem to find a site where I can simply re-download another Printer Setup Utility. Anyone have suggestions? I recently had a "mini-stroke," and it's pretty hard for me to focus on an annoying problem like this for very long. Eventually, I may be able to upgrade to OS 10.5- Leopard, but can't afford it now. So meanwhile- I'm stuck with what I have. Thanks! Dan

I don't recall for sure - you may be able to get Printer Setup utility by downloading the 10.4.11 Combo Updater from Apple and re-Updating with that. If not, there is a utility called Pacifist that allows you to reinstall individual files from your Install DVD - get it here:
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/12743
PS- I love Apple (worked for them a couple of years) - but Leopard (10.5) is beta software. There are more printing problems than with any release since 10.1. Don't go there until they have fixed the problems.

Yet another freaky printing problem: 10.3.8 and Printer Setup Utility

I'm hoping some really smart people can help me out here -- I'm not as good at Mac troubleshooting as I need to be!
I purchased Tiger a few weeks ago and the upgrade went fine and I was able to print, but then suddenly I can't any more. I have a PowerBook G4, running 10.3.8 and a HP 2710xi, which is a wireless printer (not sure of the proper term for this).
The symptoms: iCal crashes when I hit cmd-P. Other programs also crash upon printing. Some programs will bring up the print dialog, but it freezes up at that point. I tried printing to a PDF in Microsoft Word, and that crashed it. This problem persists in other user accounts.
Additional problem: Printer Setup Utility crashes whenever I hit the "add" button to add a printer. I have the crash reporter information if anyone wants it. Can't add any printer at this point.
What I've tried: I uninstalled the old software from HP and reinstalled new software. The HP installer can't finish running since it gets hung up by the Printer Setup Utility. I installed print-only drivers from HP. Same problem. I tried plugging the printer in to the USB to see if that makes a difference. Same problem.
Printer Setup Utility is recognizing my printer in all forms: as USB, Bonjour, and HP IP Printing. I just can't add it due to the program crashing.
Further troubleshooting: I ran all the maintenance and permissions repairs in Onyx. I used most of the diagnostic and repair tools in Printer Setup Repair, including Reset the printing system and deleting printer preferences. I reinstalled the 10.3.8 update from Apple's website.
I'm not sure what my next step should be: Do I reinstall the whole operating system? From my review of this board, lots of other people are having problems with Printer Setup Utility in Tiger.
Thanks in advance for any insight you can offer.

Have you tried starting up with the Install DVD, and then using Disk Utility (in the menus at the top, NOT in the installer) to repair the hard drive?
If you're going to show us any errors, use the Console to look at cups error log. Paste any line that starts with E, plus the 3 lines before it (they tell you what was happening).
If none of this is fruitful, yes, reinstalling is the next step.

What happened to Print Setup?

Just moved from Acrobat 9 to Acrobat X via CS6 upgrade. In the past, when I had considerable setup to do, I would go into Print Setup, and makle all the changes not only in the Acrobat print setup dialog but also the printer's properties dialog. And, this allowed for these settings to persist as long as I didn't close Acrobat. This was extremely helpful and important to me.
Now that I've moved to Acrobat X, there doesn't seem to be a Print Setup menu choice. Is there some way to enable the previous menu choice that performed the Print Setup action? Only "Print" is available, which seems to require a committment to print instead of simply setting up properties in preparation for printing.
less than happy,
mike

OK, let me pose a typical scenario regarding this.
I clicked Print, chose a different printer from the default printer, hit the Page Setup button and chose a different page size, reverse pages, print on same side, and a few others. Then, because I'm not ready to print yet (but I DO want to persist these settings!) I hit Cancel. A few minutes later I'm ready to print. I click Print, but GUESS WHAT? the default printer is now re-selected, same for the page size!
If I had Print Setp as in previous versions, I could do each of these things under Print Setup, choose OK, and these settings are persisted until I close Acrobat, without having had to print something yet!
I don't see AT ALL how this is the same. Please try this yourself.

Printer Setup Utility for 10.4.11

I had some software problems that necessitated resetting the Launchservices database (with Onyx), running Disk Warrior to rebuild the hard disk directory and other operations. At the end of all this, my printer, which is an Epson Stylus Photo R340 inkjet, did not work any more. I installed a new driver, and the printer worked. But I could not access the status window with its job queue, etc. On investigation, the Printer Setup Utility had completely disappeared.
I used Pacifist to extract the Utility from my install disk; but these are of a very early version of Panther, and the utility seems to be rather unstable and does not seem to work very well. For instance, it presents me with an enormous list of past jobs; when I delete them, the next time I open the Utility they are all back. And I cannot get it to show current jobs.
I updated my operating system progressively online via Software Update and am now on 10.4.11. I therefore do not have any disks from which to extract an updated version of the Printer Setup Utility. Is there anywhere and any way in which I can obtain a version of the Utility that will work better in OS X 10.4.11? Thank you in anticipation of any help.

because my system has benefited by now from all sorts of partial updates via Software Update (Safari, iTunes, etc., not to mention a series of security updates), which will not be in the combo system update on that link.
It shouldn't affect those at all.
Have you any idea what to do about that huge list of past jobs?

Need help to find printer setup utility

I recently bought my first Mac and have slowly been adding to it over the last couple of weeks. Today I added a new printer that I wish to connect wirelessly. The printer is a Brother MFC-3360. I installed the software that came with the printer and had the printer connected directly to the Mac Book. It printed just fine.
I then disconnected the USB cable and plugged it into the Extreme Base station. It failed to print. According to the Extreme manual, I need to open printer setup utility, located in the utilities folder in the applications folder. Then from there I need to add the printer.
The problem is, I have no printer setup utility. Is there another place where it might be located?
Any other ideas will be much appreciated. Thank you!

Found problem. Went to Sys prefs -> Printers and Fax -> removed my printer and re-installed. Works like a charm.

Printer Setup for HTML reports (Landscape)

I'm trying to print an HTML report in Landscape, the Report Orientation VI only works with Standard Reports, and I can't find anything that will let me modify the "Printer Setup"
Anyone done this?

Jeff,
To print an HTML report it first has to be rendered. To render HTML, you need a browser. For example, you can render HTML in either Internet Explorer or Firefox or Opera, and all three might render the same data slightly differently. To simplify the situation let's say that you're using IE. Once IE renders the HTML, you then have to get it to send the rendered output to the printer. So you can see why it isn't time or cost-effective for NI to try and necessarily support these functions. For the end user however, I'd guess that quite a few people have had this problem.
I have had to do a lot of digging around to get HTML reports to print right. My solution has been to use an ActiveX container with an IWebBrowser2 object (Internet Explorer). This will let you load and print HTML reports programatically however (glancing back over some old code) I don't see immediately how you can print a report in Landscape. With an ActiveX container however you can call the IE print preview function which will let you (the user) modify the report printing to Landscape. It's not a programmatic solution since you have to interact with the GUI but it works. Also, once you set the setting to Landscape, everything printed afterwards using your ActiveX container will also print in Landscape.
Something else which may not apply to you (but maybe--I'll at least mention it) is printing a landscape single image... that's usually why I needed to print landscape... to print out a full page screenshot of a graph or something. I do this in portrait mode by just attaching the control image but rotating it first and adding the HTML code to make it 100% of the vertical page.
Last but not least, if you are 100% set on using a programmatic implementation to print a landscaped report (no user interaction), the best thing to do would be to build on an ActiveX implementation so that your report is being loaded and printed from an embedded IWebBrowser2 object. With the IWebBrowser2 object there is an option for using a pre-defined print template. This option is NOT for the faint of heart and requires you basically to re-program the whole IE print-preview functionality. However, it's not impossible either, it just takes the time of learning basically how the IE print preview interface works and then adapting it to your application (in this case, landscaped printouts). This is also the ONLY way to change HTML report headers and footers. The print preview interface in IE is written entirely in javascript--you can get details on msdn (search for "print preview templates"). However, there isn't really enough info there to do things with any ease. So....
If you get to the point where you get an ActiveX container working and want to fool with the IE print preview javascript templates, let me know. I have extracted the entire template and associated images from the windows DLL it is stored in so I could adapt it and change the headers and footers for my reports and things of that nature.
Now that I mention it, I believe that is the only way also to actually set landscape or portrait--by programmatically changing the printing margins (so it prints 11x8.5 instead of vice versa).
Anyway, hope that helps...

Why doesn't the HP printer show up in the printer setup utility?

Can't understand why the HP2100 TN laserjet printer that is networked(ethernet) via a Snow basestation does not automatically show up in my list of printers. I also downloaded HP's drivers for it.
My boyfriend's Powerbook running 10.3 is able to automatically see it, and it showed up as "shared" on my computer when his laptop is up and running. I tried Appletalk etc. He got it running using IP printing and having the IP address, but he told me it should have just showed up.
I'm new to the Mac so I don't understand this. According to the config page he printed Appletalk is active on the printer its selected on my networking page.
Any help apprciated.

My new Canon Pixma 7250 wireless printer can no longer find my wireless network. My MAC is, Yosemite 10.10.2. I've run diagnostics and Canon LAN printer setup routine many time. Is there a solution? Can anyone help?

My new Canon Pixma 7250 wireless printercan no longer find my wireless network. (It worked fine until recently) I have a Yosemite 10.10.2. I've run diagnostics and the Canon LAN printer setup routine many times. Is there a solution? Can anyone help?

Turn of the MG and unplug the power cord. Leave it off for about a minute and then reconnect the power cord and turn the power back on. Wait while the device attempts to reconnect to your wireless network - the blue wifi symbol on the MG will flash and then stay on once it has connected. If it keeps flashing then you will have to reconnect the MG to your wireless access point via the control panel on the MG.

HP Laserjet 6p is not recognized in Printer Setup Utility

I bought recently used HP Laserjet 6p printer and connected my PB to it's Apple Talk port via AsanteTalk Box. After I installed the HP 6p printer driver (downloaded from the HP site) I've tried several times to find the printer in the Printer Setup Utility but it doesn't appear on it! I've even downloaded a printer driver for MacOS 9 and tried to print in Classic environment but can't find any HP printer in the Chooser. Is there any solution for this problem?
I'll be very thankful for any suggestions.

Apple included the Gimp-Print driver "HP Laserjet 6 Series" for that printer. Does that show up?

Epson 4800 Ethernet IPP Network Cant Add PRINTER SETUP UTILITY

Greetings!
Any known issues?
Does anyone have this working??
I am having a time TRYING to ADD a new Epson 4800 printer, Epson Ethernet card onto new Mactel laptop and new quad G5 (both 10.4.7).
Epson NetConfig Utility sees the printer and set an IPP address.
However, Apple PRINTER SETUP UTILITY Add IP printer isn't working.
I had qualified Epson support taking me through the steps...he said some issues with the Intel books, but that doesn't explain why the G5 isn't working.
Three hours yesterday and I'm back on it later today...any tips/info appreciated.

Hi all,
I recently bought an Epson Stylus DX4850 and I'll be damed if I get the thing installed on my Intel based Mac! This is driving me mad, I've been told that it is compatable. I've downloaded all the drivers from the Epson website but when I go to add the printer it's not listed. Does this mean that I need to use a different driver or gimp driver?
Any help would be greatly appreciated and would prevent me from going insane!
Many thanks, Jon

Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first
