Photosmartc4975 (win7) freezes when printing multipage pdf files.

After several pages (random number usually about 3) it stops in the middle of the page and printer freezes. Needs restart.
The printer is set up as network printer.
Any known solution?
Thank you

Hi,
the 'Print' button you describe is the 'Print' button of the Adobe PDF reader ActiveX control.
Start>Adobe Reader>Edit>Preferences>Internet>uncheck "Display PDF in browser"
and
Internet Options>Advanced tab, uncheck "Do not save encrypted files to disk"

  • Freezing when printing to PDF

    Greetings All,
    I am running Windows server 2003, with Citrix Metaframe 3.0. My clients are Macs connecting with the citrix client as well as MS clients using RDP (the issue happens on both). They run a PC application (a database app) that resides on the Citrix server (MS Windows 2003 server). All is fine, except when a user runs a report and prints that report to a pdf file, when they go to exit that app, their connection freezes and I have to
    manually disconnect them. If the same user uses the same setup logs onto the server, just views the report OR makes any changes to the databse, then exit the app, their connection releases with no issues. So I have narrowed down the issue to printing to a pdf file. Is there a security setting that needs to be modified to allow all users to do this, or is it something else?
    Acrobat 7.0 standard and distiller are installed on
    this server. I've included an event error:
    Event Type: Warning
    Event Source: MetaFrameEvents
    Event Category: Printer Management
    Event ID: 1103
    Date: 6/25/2008

    Description:

    printer properties will be used instead. Client name: (Andy Zevons Compute)
    Printer: (Technology Manager (from Andy Zevons Compute) in session 2)

    Thanks in advance,

    It is not clear if the client is using Acrobat on a local machine or you are using a server print of a PDF. If the latter, you may have to hope someone has server experience here along with comments about the license. Acrobat generally is only licensed to work on a local machine. Thus if thy are using it locally, they need to be able to somehow see the report and be able to print from the application on their machine.
    I have no clue about the server applications and the possible viewing aspect that is needed.

  • Acrobat freezes when I OCR pdf files.  How do I fix this?!?

    I just downloaded Adobe Acrobat 11 yesterday onto my MacBook Air. When I try to OCR documents Abobe semi-freezes, meaning that it won't let me save what it has just OCR'd, it won't let me close, it won't even let me minimize the window.  I say "semi-freezes" because it actually does ask me if I want to "save," but trying to do that, or trying to decline to do that and close, is futile. The only way I can get out of this is to shut the computer down completely and then turn it back on again.  This is a disaster because 90% of my job involves working with PDF files and I can't work unless I can OCR these documents.  They are numerous, voluminous, and use many complex terms.
    Please give me step-by-step instructions as to how to fix this, and please assume I know absolutely ZERO technical things about computers.  Many thanks.  Pete

    Moved to https://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/scanning_%26_ocr.
    I have used Acrobat 11 on a Macbook Air using both OX X,9 and X.10 without issue. Can I ask which version of Acrobat 11 you are using and what version of OS X? Additionally, are you seeing a freeze or a spinning pizza wheel of death. I have an older machine in which the spinning pizza wheel occurs whenever it feels like and I can wait for minutes before it returns control to me.

  • Problem when printing a PDF file

    I am currently using Pagemaker 7 and after I create a PDF file and then email it to my client, the image shrinks when they print it out on their printer. If I print that same PDF file on my printer it does not shrink. Can anyone explain why this happens and how I can correct this problem? Would be must appreciated.

    Screen captures are a good way to show people how to set page scaling to none

  • How can I fix a printing problem: message cannot print document: "no pages selected to print" when printing a pdf file.

    I am having problems printing a pdf document. When I select a file to print and try to print it says that "no pages selected to print". The default all pages was selected by me but the message keeps coming up. I recently installed adobe reader version 11. Rebooted the computer but sitll having issues printing docs.
    Jerseyguy

    Hi Pat.
    Yes, both of them lead to the very same error.
    I have a workaround, kind of, where I preview the document and select all the pages that are correct (read showing on the pages preview) as included in the 1st screenshot.
    As you can see in the first screenshot, the 5th page seems to be non-existandt, however as I try to preview it from the 3rdP software, it comes up just fine and from there I can print it individually... just annoying when you have 50 pages and 6 of then are randomly not showing up.
    If I try to print the whole document, it simply gives me the 2nd, 3rd and 4th screenshots.
    As for the 3rdP software, as stated in prior posts, it has been working flawlesly for the last 5 years, and has not been updated in any way, shape of form... As you said, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to look into that, however I don't believe the contract for the software maintenance is still in effect...
    Thanks.

  • When printing a PDF file I would like to ensure that all 'chapters' print on the odd numbered pages.

    I need a way to set up a PDF file so that when I print it all new chapters (and single sided forms) print on the odd pages. These PDFs are available for viewing on the network but occasionally there is a demand to print one of them. Is there a 'chapter start' (or similar command) which will allow the PDF to  more properly format when printing.

    There's no automated process because I don't think Acrobat could determine what was the beginning of a chapter. However, you can insert blank pages that start the first page of chapters to an odd-numbered page.
    In Acrobat XI, that is Tools > Pages > More Insert Options > Insert Blank Page

  • Adobe Standard 9 Freezes when working in PDF File.

    System: Dell T3500 Xeon Processor with XP Pro 64-bit.  6Gb Ram. MS Office 2007. Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird. Quickbooks Pro 2009. Adobe Standard 9. Linksys Network Magic software. Hardwired to Linksys WRT54G2 wireless router.
    The only program that I am having trouble with is Acrobat.  It will open just fine.  It will open any PDF file ok.  However, as soon as you put the cursor inside the PDF to scroll, open a different page, rescale, ANYTHING, Acrobat freezes.  It remains frozen for up to 30 seconds.  This happens EVERY time you try to do something to the PDF that is loaded.  The file size of the PDF does not matter either.  I have opened very small ones and very large ones.  They all open fine but then freeze as soon as you try to do something with the file. It's not just Adobe that freezes!  It actually locks up the entire computer!

    At the advice of my IT guy at work, I checked the Event Viewer.  This is one of the messages I was getting:
    The protocol handler Search.Mapi2Handler.1 cannot be loaded. Error description: Class not registered.
    I did a search on it and went to

    One of the posts says to go
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/desktopsearch/choose/windowssearch4.ms px?tab=Install%20It
    and install Windows Search 4.0.
    Where I am still getting the original error above, Acrobat has started working correctly.
    Now.  Something else happened as well.  Actually two things.  First, when I opened Outlook this time, I got a pop-up that said something about RSS feeds - Yes, No, or Ask Me Later.  I think I clicked on NO.
    Now, Outlook is opening faster that ever before and Acrobat is working.

  • FireFox crashes when printing bigger pdf files

    We are using the setting "Preview in FireFox" for pdfs and when we try to print a larger file (over 60 pages or so), the print progress bar makes it to about 90% and then FireFox crashes. We have the latest version, 27.0.1, and I've tried reseting Firefox under Help>Troubleshooting Info and also uninstalled and reinstalled the program but still having the same issue. I'm able to print the file just fine in other browsers (or at least in Chrome). Can someone please help?

    My best guess would be to troubleshoot the printer settings in Firefox and then talk to the Printer Support. [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]] . If it continues to crash please submit a crash report and post it to a new question with the "bp-"
    We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing when you open it. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.
    #Press the following shortcut to get a Run window: [Windows] + [R]. This should bring up a window that contains a text field.
    #In that text field, enter %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.

  • Acrobate IX freezes when printing/creating pdf in Firefox - same settings as in IX

    Hi Guys,
    Had the product for a week and it is not working... Usual stuff, a new PC take weeks to bed down.
    When I try to print/create pdf from something in Firefox, both Acrobate IX and Firefox freeze. I have the old PC with Firefox and Acrobate IX, same default setting and it works everytime. XI freezes. Close Firefox and Acrobate and then re-open and it may print. If it does the next time I try it freezes.
    Can anyone help?? not sure how this works... but my email is [email protected]
    This place was so hard to find... is there a way to tag this question when an answer comes?? Possibly a Moderator could make it so??

    Hi,

  • When printing a PDF file, my HP Desljet printer first prints a blank page.  How can I fix this?

    This only occurs when printing a saved PDF file.  Word and other applications work fine on the first try.

    Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.

    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).

  • Printer not selectable from drop down when printing any pdf file. Printer is available when printing any other file format.

    Client is running Adobe Acrobat X. When trying to print their Ricoh printer can not be seen in the drop down menu. The Printer was added locally and the printer can print any other file format.

    Your ps file should be good, the problem likely resides elswehere. Maybe in your acrobat install, distillers settings. what error did distiller give?
    Mine ran good and got a multi page document, here is a screenshot to help you troubleshoot.
    On mac go to system preferences / print and fax / and change your default printer if you have another option. I know sounds like this should not help, but there are problems like Illustrator for example not making .pdfs if you do not have a printer chosen or an old or corrupt .ppd assigned.

  • Explorer browser freezes when creating a pdf file

    I have Windows 7 and Acrobat 9 Standard.  When I want to create a pdf from a website, Explorer 8 freezes after prompting the name of the file.  I recover by closing Explorer 8, but i don't get the pdf that I wanted to create.
    Could anybody help?
    Many thanks

    I am having exactly the same problem with Adobe Pro 9, Windows 7 and IE 8.  And yes, AcroTray.exe is running.  I select Adobe PDF as my printer and the dialog box comes up asking for a filename.  The dialog box is frozen - no entry can be made.  It remains frozen and never recovers.  The only recourse is to end the IE session or the dialog box.  I have figured out the following scenario.  My experience is that if I am trying to print directly from the page using a print button or similar, the freeze occurs.  However, if I can get the proper formatting on the screen and use the Page/Print drop down from the toolbar, it will "generally" produce the PDF.  I have to admit that I do not know if it freezes using the drop down selection from Page/Print.  So far, it has not failed using that approach.
    For what it's worth, Adobe has a really poor history of providing accurate and helpful responses - if you are reading this and are an Adobe employee, please just take this as constructive feedback.  I see a lot of "check this or check that" when it is pretty clear that the person isn't an idiot and probably has checked everything they can.  Sometimes, it really is the Adobe product!!!!

  • Ad2kregp.dll error when printing to PDF file

    Greetings,
    I use Acrobat 7.0 to print reports from a home grown SQL Server application to PDF on a Dell laptop with WinXP. When I'm logged on in the office everything works fine. When I try it from home via VPN I get the follwoing error message:
    Access violation at address 70001CC7 in module 'AD2KReGP.DLL'. Read of address 00000000.
    I searched both the knowledge base and forums and have found no matches to my situation. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Brian McCulloch

    One of my users was getting the same error message when trying to print to a pdf from freq12. This problem is an adobe problem though. What I did to fix the problem was I got a copy of the 'AD2KReGP.DLL' from a computer that adobe was working fine on and replaced the bad one with it. The location of the file to be replaced is: C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\w32x86\3
    After replacing the bad file with the file from another computer it worked great. Hopefully this helps.

  • Premiere freezes when opening Help PDF file

    When I click help in the help menu, the PDF opens right away, but then Premiere freezes for about 40 seconds. I suspect it is trying to download some Internet content, but this behavior needs to be fixed. My Mac Pro is connected to an AirPort Extreme via wifi, but this network is not connected to the Internet, it's just for internal file transfers. If I turn off the computer's wifi, this problem does not happen. I get the same symptoms with Premiere, After Effects, an Media Encoder. All of the help PDFs are downloaded already and show current in Adobe Help.

    Hi, spookybathtub,
    Just confirming that you're running Premiere Pro CS6?
