My HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One printer won´t print out documents, just pictures ...

My HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One printer won´t print out documents, just pictures. I´ve used the printer, since it was new on the marked, and it has worked perfectly until a few weeks back. There is no problem printing out pictures, but only blank pages comes out when I´m printing out documents. Regardless if it is Word, Excel etc.
I´ve never used anything else than original cartridges, and the printer is used on Mac OS X 10.7.4. I´ve tried to reinstall the printer several times without any success.
Can anyone help me?

InDesign doc exported to PDF won't print

I'm experiencing issues with an exported PDF from InDesign. More specifically, when I export the InDesign doc to a PDF and try to print, I don't have any issues, nor does anyone else in my office, however some of the people that I'm sending the document to are experiencing trouble printing it. They get to 44% flattened and then the printing process slows down, and then once it reaches 50% they get a pop-up window saying that the document can't print and the whole thing stops. They can print the first page by just selecting that page, however the second page cannot be printed this way. I have re-exported the PDF several times and these folks having the issues have cleared their browser cache, re-downloaded the document, saved it to their desktop before opening, and tried renaming the document as well.
What's going on here, and what can I do or tell them to do to fix this?
Also, updating their Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat does not solve the problem.

Hi, I was just wondering if you got the problem resolved. I'm asking because we are experiencing kind of the same issue in our office. Our Marketing Manager is using Adobe InDesign and exports her documents to PDF. These PDFs won't print in any of our printers in the office. It spools and then gets stuck and it actually makes our HP Coloured Laser Printer throw an error (error 79) and we'll have to restart the printer due to this error. We can print other documents and other PDFs in the printer so we know it's not a printer driver issue. In fact, we have isolated the problem to only PDFs exported from InDesign. Even if we create a blank document from InDesign and export it to PDF it still won't print. Really odd. We would appreciate if you could share your solution if you were able to fix the issue. Thanks!!

PDF won't print properly - some letters squeezed together

Using a Mac and Reader 9 and two different laser printers (Canon and Brother). PDF won’t print text properly. Some letters are jammed / squeezed together. Last week I used Mac’s Preview Program / App to bypass the PDF print menu to get it to print the PDF properly but no luck today. How to fix?

Printing as an image fixed the letter-jamming thing, thanks Michael. A new problem though.
This is a 16 page booklet printed on 8.5x11. Each page is set at 5.5x8.5. I have made two PDF files:
1) 16 individual pages 5.5x8.5 in portrait mode and
2) 8 pages 8.5x11 in landscape mode with one page of the booklet on each half of the page (properly formatted to create a 16 page booklet).
The problem in using either one of these files are these:
1) When I use the 16 individual page file and make a booklet under the print menu, it shrinks the combined pages to less than 8.5x11.
2) When I try to print the 8 page file of an already formatted booklet, the image is the right size but the back of each sheet is printed upside-down.
How do I fix either one of these problems, preferably both? All suggestions welcome.

Adobe PDF won't print non-working time colour in MS Project

Adobe PDF won't print the colour chosen for non-working times in MS Project. I have tried changing the colour, changing the style, moving non-working time in front of tasks and have fiddled with the printer properties, all to no avail. It ignores whatever style I have for non-working time and makes a blank space, although it will take gridline changes . . . . please help!

Thank you for providing the suggestion and the Cleanup tools, however they did not help.
I ran each version of the cleanup tool, and for each I had it clean up Reader and Acrobat (i.e. 4 separate cleanup operations). I then rebooted the machine, and installed Reader 11.0.3.
Still had the same behavior: Reader will not print. I tried printing to a second printer (that is attached via USB)...and it did not work either. I also tried printing to a Cute PDF Writer print driver...and that did not work either. In each case, no print data made it to the Windows print queue (as demonstrated by watching the queue while printing.) No error was raised, but no print data was transmitted.
I then uninstalled Reader 11.0.3, rebooted, and re-installed Reader 9: printing works fine now.
There is definitely something in Reader 10 and Reader 11 that breaks printing in some environments. (As you alluded to...I have seen a number of postings online about printing problems in Reader.)
More details about my environment:
Windows 7 Professional N (Version 6.1, Build 7601: Service Pack 1)
VMWare virtual machine
Two virtual CPUs (each: Intel Core i7 920 @ 2.67 GHz, 2673 Mhz, 1 core, 1 Logicial Processor)
Hardware Abstraction Layer: 6.1.7601.17514
RAM: 3096 (allocated to virtual machine)
Bridged networking
VMware host:
Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit 6.1.7601, Service Pack 1
18 Gig RAM
Intel Core i7 CPU 920 @2.67 GHz
VMWare Workstation 9.0.2 build-1031769
(but problem existed on older version of VMWare Workstation 7.x as well)

PDFs won't print (Lion and HP laserjet 1300)

I just upgraded to Lion and pdfs won't print. It doesn't appear to be the printer driver, because the printer works with others apps. Any suggestions? It's an HP Laserjet 1300. Yes, it's old, but still works, well, sometimes. just not with pdfs.

Hi Andreais,
I found some useful tips on the HP forum as well. Maybe it is helpful in your case as well: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Mac-Printing-and-Scanning/HPDesignjet-130NR-no-long er-prints-PDF-properly/m-p/768507/highlight/true#M18877

PDFs won't print on new HP printer

I recently added a HP CM1415fnw printer in my office and I cannot print any PDF documents. Word and Excel print fine. Why?

Happily, Windows 7 is in and everything seems to work fine. I have to
navigate around my desktop a bit differently, but everything seems to be
compatible. I especially have to work now with printing Word docs to PDF.
I'll get there...

Incoming messages won't print out

This morning several email messages won't print out. If the incoming message is a reply to my email and that reply contains my original email in the response, only my email prints out. The reply and sender info are blank in the printout.

What application are you using to view and print your emails? (Mail, Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Sparrow, Thunderbird, etc).
Your profile indicates you are running 10.6.4. Is that information still current? If not, I suggest installing all available software updates. There have been many OS and printer driver updates since 10.6.4.

C6380 Prints everything OK but won't print out emails

Honestly, my succint subject title says it all. I can print anything from OpenOffice, photos, notepad, PDF files, anything from the web but I can't print out my own emails. I have tried turning the printer off and on, and I have tried rebooting my computer. I just downloaded the diagnostic utility from HP and it found no problems. I have a trip planned and I'm trying to print out the airline and hotel confirms and they just won't print.
What to do?
Thanks!

Hi Garfld,
I am providing you few steps to load an alternate driver on your computer and you can try it and check the email printing.
First print the network configuration page form the printer using these steps and note down the IP address:
Setup Menu>>Network>>View Network Settings>>Print Network Configuration Page
Now on your computer click on start menu>> on the start search type run and press enter.
You will be able to see a run box and on the run box copy and paste the command and press enter a black box will open and close quickly.
cmd /c rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "HP C6380 New" /f %windir%\inf\ntprint.inf /r "LPT1:" /m "hp deskjet 990c" && rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /y /n "HP C6380 New"
Now if you open the printers folder from start menu on your computer>> control panel>> printers.
You would be able to see the printer icon in there named as HP C6380 New with a checkmark on it and says ready.
Now please right click on it and select properties and select ports tab and you would be able to see the port selected as LPT1(now need to change the port from LPT1 to Standard TCP/IP port).
Once you see the LPT1 port click on add a port, Select Standard TCP/IP port and click on New port and a new box will appear asking to enter the IP address. Enter IP address which you noted down from the network configuration page and click on next and next and finish the wizard. Once the wizard disappears click on apply button available on the ports window and click on general tab and select print test page.
Check if the printer prints the test page fine and if yes try and print your email and check the result.
If the steps helps you please click on Kudos and mark the post as resolved

Security set to allow high resolution printing but pdf won't print

We create a large number of pdf files to send out to
clients, etc. We have been using security on all pdf's being sent out, however, some clients are having issues printing these pdf files even though our security settings are set to allow high resolution printing. Any one have any ideas why? I cannot duplicate the issue for whatever reason, the files still print for me.

I discover I am suddenly having a similar problem as well.
I have recently migrated to a new Intel iMac/Leopard, I'm on a network and trying to print to a Tektronix/Xerox 7700 laser printer. I can print anything other kind of document on that printer as long as it is not a PDF.
When I open the printer window it says the job has been stopped. I choose the job and tell it to "resume" at which point the printer pauses itself. Once it flashed a window that said Operation Not Possible - client-error-something-something and then closed before I could see what the last two words were.
I am currently using Adobe Reader 6.0. I would love to be able to try to print out of 7.0 but there seem to be continual download problems in the form of constant connection failures. I also have Acrobat 6.0 STD - can't print out of either one.

Acrobat X PDF Won't Print

I installed Acrobat X the other day.
Today, I tried printing a PDF document, but it won't print.
When I click OK, I get an error message that reads: document cannot print, then another message that reads no pages were selected.
If I click on printer, and select print from there, nothing happens.

pleasure: if you open the file in Acrobat Pro and save as, that sometimes does the trick as well. (if it does then its a better solution)

PDF won't print beyond a certain page.

I have sent a 52 page pdf to a client created in Adobe InDesign. They have tried printing it, and it won't print beyond page 23, on multiple printers. I am able to print all pages at home, so I don't know if the problem is somewhere in the pdf's setup, or the clients printers. Has anyone run into this issue before? Thank you for any suggestions.

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* Open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
Please report back with your report.

Items List won't print out all columns.

When I try to print an Items List it only prints out a few of the columns.

I tried to follow your instructions and got down to where you say, "Right click on template > Document properties" I get nothing about properties when I right click on any of the templates for the sales document. I only have the choice to edit a template, then save it as default.
Next, you said, "Change the layout from portrait to landscape" I am not seeing that option anywhere in the edit of the template window.
Then you said, "Add the fields you like to add and save it as new name" How do you do that? I find no easy way to add the fields I want to add while in the print editor. Am I missing something here?
I appreciate your help, and it sounds very simple the way you state it, but I am not following how you do this. Can you please elaborate?
Thanks,

PDFs Won't Print

I can't print PDFs to my Brother printer. I get the error message /usr/libexed/cups/filter/pstoraster failed. Please help! I am running OSX 10.6.8.

I can print everything but pdf files. I have had this problem with an older Brother printer (model MFC 7840W) but I didn't deal with it because I had an old OKI color printer that I was using as my primary printer and it had no problems. The OKI died last week and we got a new Brother MFC-9970CDW. Now I can't print pdfs to either printer.
My default for opening PDFs is Acrobat 9 Pro v 9.4.6. I also use this to modify PDF files and to create forms so changing to Preview or another way of opening the files is not a good option.
I know other people are having this issue but I have not been able to find a good solution in any of the threads I have read online.
Thanks for your help!
