Please help, printing on Mac

Hi there,
I'm trying to implement printing inside java applet using javax.print package. I read an article somewhere about the package not working perfectly under mac, and a workaround is to use the old java.awt.print to get the print services, then use the DocPrintJob to print.
The SimpleDoc I use for capturing the image that I need to print works fine, and the printServices are there. The problem I have is it's giving me an 'invalid flavor' exception when clicking 'Print' on popup PrintDialog.
It seems that the mimetype is what's causing the problem, as the printer's supported mime type is "application/x-java-jvm-local-objectref". (note that, on PC the printing works fine, with Doc flavor mimetype as image/png and the image I need to print in png format). I tried switching the flavor to SERVICE_FORMATTED.RENDERABLE_IMAGE, printing an ImageDoc class which implements Doc and RenderableImage, but 'invalid flavor' exception still occurs.
I don't know much about printers on Mac, so I'm not sure what I can do about it, is it something that can be controlled from the Applet or it's something that the user has to set in the system - the Applet can only warn the user and tell the user to do the configuration.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Ken,
Relax, there are no viruses on Macs. Now, as far as your Mac running slower and slower let's see if we can figure out what's wrong.
Try starting in "Safe Mode" (It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
If that works go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
If that's not it, we'll try something else. Let us know.

  • Please Help Printer Problems

    I have just bought an Airport Extreme Base Station. I have a Mac Book, iBook G3 and a Win XP Laptop that I have so far connected to the network.
    On the base station itself I have a Western Digital My Book External Hard Drive and an HP Photosmart C4180 all in one printer connected via a USB hub.
    All the computers can see the external hard drive but I can only get the Win XP Laptop to print. The two Apple laptops will not print.
    One last thing all my computers connected to the internet wirelessly via my BT Fusion Home Hub before buying the base station. When I first installed the base station I connected the WAN port to the BT hub. As far as the base station is telling me everything must be setup right as I have the solid green light.
    What am I doing wrong. Please help I love Apple products and really do not want to send this back.

    I'd like to suggest you go to www.tune-up.com and download and install this program.
    You get a 30 day free trial to start. If you sign up as a reseller you can get the program for $29 after that.
    I'm not an employee of the company but I just recommend the program as it has fixed many a friends
    problems and has kept my computers and my familys computers running straight and clean with no problems.
    Even if you don't buy the program after using it and it fixes your problems you can uninstall it and consider it a blessing.
    I'm sure once you see what it can do you will think twice to buy it.
    Other than that, I don't know much about your system to even begin to try to tell you what to do as a troubleshooter.
    It could be any number of things that are wrong with it. Number one, the registry might be really messed up.
    Tune-up will fix that fix off for you. A computer is like a car, it has to be kept in tune in order to keep running right.
    Another problem area is malware and viruses. We all know about them but do we ever really know if we might have been bit
    by any of them. Most times not until something serious causes us problems. Can I suggest another program you might try?
    AVG Internet Security 2011 at www.avg.com.  It's another 30 day free trial program. I am also a reseller and have all my computers
    and family members registered and using it.
    I can tell you that with only these two programs installed on your computer you can rest easy and use your computer without any fears or problems.    Let me know how it goes for you. Good luck.

  • Please help new to macs and my recently purchased power mac keeps freezing :-(

    Hi apple community!
    I recently purchased a power mac g5
    Specs;
    G5 power mac dual core (2.0)
    Power pc 970 mp
    Late 2005
    I don't have an apple mouse/keyboard
    I just use $40 wireless mouse keyboard.
    Upon purchase everything seemed to work as it should....booted up, open and closing apps without freezing.
    However I never had it connected to the Internet when I navigated through system.
    I got it home and installed a 1 tb harddrive (WD mainstream desktop) from future shop. When I installed it in tower I had to buy a sata 2.0 cable as there was not one available for use. Booted up fine and installation went as my research said it should. Turned it on next day....
    Tried to update iTunes and this is where it started actin up. First just froze had to turn off, second time wouldn't even boot up plus fans went into overdrive. Third forth fifth sixth boots fans sometimes kick in, now whenever I try to do any kind of action it freezes. (Only when I click something)
    I read about possible power suppy issue, so I plugged tower and monitor into seperAte plugs,
    They may however be in same circuit because they at in the same wall...would a power conditioner fix this?
    Anyway still froze on any action tried...just opened disk drive...opened then frooze...?
    Anybody have any ideas??
    Please help
    Not sure if this is correct OS ( looked up using serial #)
    Max operating system OSX 10.5.8 leaporad
    Earliest supported OSX version ; 10.4.2 tiger.

    Sorry for the late reply. I want to thank you for taking the time to help me.
    Not sure exactally where I could get something like this your speaking of.
    Update; I have removed the harddrive and will most
    Likely just use an external one, if the computer will even work.
    I ended up taking it in to geeksquad at best buy, they had it for 3 days and also told me after the fact that neither of the techs working on it knew much about macs :-( needless to say I requested my
    Money back due to the fact that the service I paid for could not be completed and literally couldn't tell me anything more than what's below.
    They told me that they could not dock it with thier diagnostic machine, kept restarting on them and the one fella said it was overheating but had no idea why. When I brought it home again I tried it once more computer boots up to desktop as usual, this time had a asterisk window saying " the computer was restarted after mac OSX quit unexpectedly" however my cursor was again locked in the top left of the screen. Would not move, so I could not view the report, shortly after fans kicked into overdrive. I'm losing hope for this machine rapidly. I'm all ears when it comes to anything I may be able to do.
    Should I try an actual apple keyboard/mouse just to eliminate that possible?
    If you have ideas AWSOME, If not, no worries, ill take it into the mac store and see what they say
    P.s the machine is clean inside little to no dust and the tech said he was going to clean it out, hard to tell if he did because it was clean clean before I brought it to him.
    Thanks again for the help you have given me so far and in the future
    I look forward to hearing back
    Sincerally

    Hi Malcs,
    Don't know if you're in the U.K. but PC World are doing a good deal on the HP w2207h - £199.
    Just bought one for my Mac Mini and am extremely pleased with it - worked straight out of the box at its 1680 x 1050 resolution, it's very clear, at least to my ancient eyes, and the colours are superb and it comes with several presets i.e Movie; Photo; Gaming; Text and custom. It also comes on a stand that is height adjustable and tilts & swivels you can even turn it to portrait mode should that be your thing.
    On top of that it also looks visually superb, to me at least, seems extremely well made and the on/off button is located on the top edge, unlike a lot of monitors, so you don't get the blue 'on light' staring you in the face all the time.
    As I stated earlier, couldn't be more happy with my purchase, and I initially went to PC World to compare the LG and the Samsung.

  • Please help - New to Mac - File managment.. moving files, folders, deleting

    Hello, I am hoping someone can help me...
    I have just got one of the 24" iMacs at work and I have never worked on Mac before. I am having problems with documents/files.
    I have made new folders in my "documents" folder but I cannot move/drag files into the folders. I also cant delete files from the documents folder.
    I have spent the last 4 hours reading tutorials etc and still can't figure this out. I am guessing it's probably simple... but I just can't seem to find the answer.
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

    There are two documents folders. One shared among all user and a personal documents folder.
    To get to the system folder you double click on the machintosh hd. You will see the system documents folder here. If you are not logged on with system administrator privileges, the files will be read only. To tell if you have administrator privileges, do:
    apple icon > system preferences > accounts
    click on your account and see if the allow user to administer this computer box is checked.
    One way get your person documents folder, you double click on the machintosh hd. Next, click on the little house icon on the lower left side of the screen. This will get to all your personal files and folders. One of the folders is your documents folder.
    I agree with the prior poster to find someone who has worked with the mac before to give you a quick tutorial.
    I suggest you visit the local library or book store and checkout or buy a book on using Mac OS Tiger.

  • PLEASE HELP:printing to network printer from MacBook to PC

    Greetings,
    I have a desktop running XP with a HP PSC 1210 attached by USB. Last week I upgraded from an old Windows laptop to a shiny new MacBook. Love it but can't print through the wireless network.
    I have:
    Followed the ifelix guide and was able to see the printer though the network and add it.
    Followed the ifelic guide for troubleshooting and installed the unix tcp/ip printing component of windows. Still no printing.
    Installed both the hpisj and esp drivers and added printers on the MacBook selecting each of one of these driver. No printing.
    What happens:
    The print job becomes active then finishes on the MacBook. It is then sent through the network where it appears as a print job in the queue with the status as 'printing' and then it just sits there and does nothing never going away and doesn't allow other jobs to print after it.
    I also tried travelling over 100 kilometers this weekend to the Apple store in Toronto and spoke with a Genius at the Genius bar who, without even trying said that some printers just won't work. When I asked him which printers definitely would work, he had no idea. His only suggestions was to turn print sharing off on the Mac side. Not exactly worth the 3 hours of driving.
    So, while I love my MacBook, I have actually lost a much used function that I had on my old crummy laptop; a function that will be dearly missed.
    Please, if anyone has any suggestions, I would be greatly appreciative. If I need to provide any more details, let me know.
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   iPOD Video 30Gb, Desktop PC

    The link you gave is for printing from Classic programs on the same Mac. To print from another Mac running OS 9.2:
    1) On the server (with printer attached) enable print sharing both in Sharing prefs and in Print & Fax prefs.
    2) again on OS X (server), in Printer Setup highlight the Deskjet and click Show Info and find and write down the queue name. Also find the server IP address in Network Prefs and write it down.
    3) On the OS 9 computer, find Apple Printer Utility (usually in Apple Extras) and start it. Create an LPR/LPD printer and enter the IP address and queue name where asked for.
    4) Important - For printer model, choose an Apple Color LaserWriter xx as the PPD/model. This entire setup assumes a postscript printer. The good news is that OS X expects to receive postscript input and it translates that for the Deskjet.
    PS, it is possible that the HP driver you installed on OS9 could work, in which case you don't need to follow the above postscript procedure. Instead, in Chooser on OS 9, select the appletalk driver for your deskjet and if the printer attached to the server shows up, select it (right side of Chooser) and it may then work. I haven't got an older deskjet to try, so I don't know if it'll work.

  • Someone please help me with mac & Elements 3.0

    I'm a aged computer novice, so please be gentle with any answers (treat me like a 1st year school child when answering )
    I run Elements 3.0 and have just purchased a Macbook pro, running Snow Leopard, because my children said its user friendly.
    I have used this program on a windows machine fine. Ive loaded the software onto said Mac but when I click the file, Adobe starts to load then the following error message appears "Could not complete your request because of missing or invalid personalization information".
    I rang Adobe support, had the phone disconnected on me, rang them back, struggled to get understood, told to download updates, I did, went to the website and tried to copy them into the file format, and it took me to a chinese takeaway website, only joking.. the same error message still appears.
    I dont know what i'm doing, if i'm doing it correctly or should put the damn Mac in the bin/Ebay.
    Can anyone out there help a doddering old luddite

    In order to use a program that is not written for intel processors (no macs had intel processors back when PSE 3 was created) you must run them in Rosetta, which is a part of OS X that emulates the older system architecture. In 10.5 rosetta installs as part of the OS; in 10.6 you have to install it yourself. Programs running in Rosetta are much slower than  programs running natively.

    It looks like you've posted into the 8800-series forum...but your subject line states "storm"...are you on a Storm?

  • Please help, print to file on xserve

    Guys I am trying to setup a way to print ps files to a hotfolder.
    Since I have access to a xserve I was trying to go that route. I know it can be done by changing the swb.conf file. I just do not know how.
    Any feed back would be very appreciated.
    Thank you for all the help in advance.
    sam

    Leif again thank you.
    I must be doing something wrong.
    Here is my backend command:
    #!/bin/sh
    cat $6 > "/Volumes/ServerHD/psfiles/"$3".ps"
    Here is the permissions:
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 57 May 26 14:25 cbnpdffile
    Here is the print.conf:
    # Printer configuration file for CUPS v1.1.23

    </Printer>
    I can see the printer in the web config. I can even print a test page and it works.
    Now when I go to Server Admin I only see that printer as a default printer.
    When I go to a browser and hit the print button I see the printer but get an error: error while printing
    How can I get other macs on the network to see that printer. I can not see it in the printer setup utility. If as add as a LPD printer, when I try to print I get an error: Network host '10.0.99.105' is busy, down, or unreachable; will retry in 30 seconds ...
    Again thank you for all the help.

  • Please help - printer jammed?

    I have an HP OfficeJet L7580 that i got through a grant at work. I need it to work to print out lesson plans, etc.
    It had a paper jam, I removed it, but the printer thinks it is still jammed. I have opened all doors on the printer multiple times to check, turned it on and off and unplugged it, even tried turning it sideways, to no avail. Is this a problem with the computer chips in the computer, or is there a miniscule scrap in there somewhere? I can try to take it to an office supply store to have it serviced or is there a place  online or method to reboot the circuits in the printer so it doesn't think it is jammed?
    Thanks,
    EG

    Try this:
    1. While the printer is still turned ON, unplug the power cord from the back of the printer and from the wall outlet.
    2. Wait for a minute or two.
    3. Reconnect the power cord to the wall outlet.
    4. While the power cord to the back of the printer is still unplugged, press and hold the POUND (#) and SIX (6) keys at the same time. While holding the two keys, reconnect the power cord to the back of the printer and after two seconds, release the two keys.
    5. Turn ON the printer if it won't turn ON automatically and then follow the on-screen instructions.
    Let me know if it helps you.
