Print controls changed. I can no longer can select paper size.

This either happen by itself or something changed when I installed McDwiff.  I can still change the paper size but it's no longer on the basic control window.

What is "McDwiff"

  • How can I select paper size while in print preview ?

    I have a printer with four different paper trays, and each one is loaded with different size of paper: A3, A4, Legal, envelopes. When I use IE 11, I can easy go to print preview, click on page setup (little gear icon), select paper size , margins, etc.. there, and when i hit OK, the page is adjusted to the settings I selected and its ready to print, and printer selects the proper size of the paper automatically
    In Firefox v32, I can almost do this same, but I'm stuck with printing only on A4 style paper, as I don't see where to select the paper I want to print on !
    I tried to select A3 and legal paper in the printer driver, but then firefox used the selected paper, but printout on the paper came out as set to A4 size, and rest of the page was empty ! Also I was not able to see the page preview of the selected paper either. How do I then print on other size papers than a4 ?
    I found only one workaround which does not suits my needs but works: First: Go to printer driver and select legal or A3 paper as default, and then open firefox. If I do that i can print on any paper I select, but thats a horrible workaround, because then I often forget to change the default paper size back inside the printer driver, and i print my documents on wrong paper, wasting paper, ink and time...
    Please let me know if there is a way to fix this printing feature somehow.
    Thanks.

    MichalB,
    Sorry, IMO there is no real "fix" for what you are experiencing. Printer prefs set or changed in the operating system won't affect Firefox printing ''[IMO, either ancient code in Firefox or a "cross-browser thing".]'' Firefox has its' own settings for prefs and it defaults to the "last used" for all printer preference setting. And there is no way to set a pref as "use now and return to my defaults after this print job is completed".
    As you have found out, there is no way of changing paper size from the Print Preview screen. Other prefs - Margins & Header/Footer can be changed via Page Setup and you can see changes in the Preview window, but not for paper size. As ''CoryMH'' mentioned, '''paper size''' is selected thru what called the "native print dialog" box using the '''Properties''' button which shows a window provided by your printer software for the Printer which is selected in the "native print dialog" window, and accessed after you hit the Print button in the Print Preview screen.
    Problem is that you can't '''"preview"''' what is going to be printed when you change paper size. If you go back to Print Preview without printing from the "native print dialog" the change for Paper Size isn't saved for viewing in Print Preview!
    IMO, it would be nice if Firefox recognized each "tray" as a separate printer, so that a user could set Margins & Header/Footer prefs AND paper size per tray. IOW, a feature sort of writing a completely new print module that would reflect "today's" environment with multiple tray printers; rather than to continue using the print module that was built by Netscape back in '94 - '95, which we are stuck with almost 20 years later.
    ''As I sit here shaking my head after composing this reply, wondering why the issues I had back in 2002 with printing from Firefox / Firebird / Phoenix haven't been corrected in the last 14 years.''

  • I can no longer manually select podcast episodes to download. It automatically downloads the most recent. I have been downloading a few episodes at a time due to the limited memory of my Shuffle. Is there a work-around?

    I can no longer manually select podcast episodes to download. It automatically downloads the most recent. I have been downloading a few past episodes at a time due to limited memory of my Shuffle. Is there a work-around for this?

    Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
    I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
    At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.

  • How do I get my HP 2645 to print 4x6 cards. It gives me a mismatch paper size error

    How do I get my HP 2645 to print 4x6 cards?   It gives me a mismatch paper size error.

    Hi @aleek,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums! I see you would like to print 4x6 cards to your HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 2645, when you attempt to print the card you get a 'Paper Mismatch' error.
    I would like you to go ahead and take a look in your User Guide on page 10, here it shows how to load the media and change the printing preferences, although it shows Photos, you would use the same guidelines and steps for the Index cards, just be sure to change the media type to the correct card you are using.
    Once you have the media loaded and settings set if you are still getting the error, continue here: 'Paper Mismatch,' or 'Paper Size Mismatch' Error Message Displays When Printing
    I hope this helps, if you have anymore questions please let me know.

  • Can no longer create custom page size for printing to PDF?

    When printing from FrameMaker to PDF in Windows, I used to be able to create a custom page size by clicking on the Add button that appeared to the right of the Adobe PDF Page Size window, in the Adobe PDF Document Properties dialog box. With Frame 9, that button no longer appears; in fact, the whole dialog box is cut off just inside the edge of the entry windows. Do I need to set something? Thanks for any help you can offer. - Cindy Shaler

    Cindy,
    I am not sure to what dialog boxes you are referring.
    In the PDF Setup dialog box (in FrameMaker's Print dialog or Save as PDF dialog), the Settings tab displays two fields to change the width and height of the paper. I tried entering odd values, and the resulting PDF had the entered size. I see no Add button nor is the dialog box cut off.
    Maybe I am not looking at the correct boxes.

  • Why can´t I create custom paper sizes in millimeters?

    Since I upgraded to Tiger (?) or since I bought (?) my new Epson printer RX700 I can´t customize paper sizes in millimeters. For example the value 12,1x12,2 gets evened out to 12x12. This happens regardless of programs I try to print from. Epson has no solution to the problem. Is it a cumputer problem?
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   768 MB, 1,8 GHz

    Thanks for your answer. I was trying in Aperçu, Acrobat Reader and Firefox. After your post, I did try in Safari and had the same rouding problem, as I expected since the custom page size management seems to be an OS X function used by all applications.
    May be the error is in the way I type the paramters in the page size boxes : I type, e.g., "12,5 cm" which is transformed into "13 cm" when I hit another control ?
    I tried other formats whithout success :
    "125 mm" -> "125 cm" !
    "125 pt" -> error message
    "12.5 cm" -> error message
    "4,92 in" -> error message
    "12,5" -> "13 cm"
    I also tried to set System Preferences > International > Formats > Measurement units to "American" instead of "Metric". Then I could enter sizes in inches but non-integer values were also rounded to the nearest integer.
    How do you enter decimal values into the size boxes ?

  • How hp laserjet 8150 series pcl can pick from tray any paper size automatically

    hi,am using hp laserjet 8150 series pcl and initially tray 2 used to pick a4 papers automatically.i need any of the trays to pick customised paper of 7inches by 11.7 inches automatically

    Hi there Wolf!
    I have a couple of articles here that I believe will help you out with your question. First, here is an article with some information on custom paper sizes:
    OS X Mountain Lion: Manage custom paper sizes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10748
    Note that in that article, it states:
    Custom paper sizes aren’t available for some printers.
    The reason for that is because this is controlled by the driver for the individual printer. You will want to make sure you have the latest version of the printer driver installed on your computer. More information on this can be found in the following article:
    Printer and scanner software available for download
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669
    It might also be helpful to reset your printing system to see if that will resolve the issue. More information on this process can be found here:
    Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system

    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • Hp 9800 printer will not print 13"x19". using vista home basic. tells me paper size is problem.

    Deskjet HP 9800 printer, USB connection, Vista Home Basic 32 bit. I am trying to print 13"x19" colour and the printer receives info from computer, goes through a few gyrations and then feeds my sheet of paper out with no attempt to print. I have tried every possible combination of setup features and have tried to print at Max DPI and at Best DPI. Same results. Only error message ever received was one telling me of a conflict in paper size. That message was received twice during about 15 attempts to print. This my first try at 13"x19". I have no problem with 11"x17" colour or black and white.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Select "/var/log/cups/error_log" from the file list in the Console window. Then select the messages from the time of the last printing attempt. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • Can no longer save selections

    hello
    i have a grave problem and hope someone can help me.
    i was working for a long time with selections in one document.
    today, while i was trying to save another selection, in the save selection dialog box there was only the option to save it to a new document.
    all the list of my previous selections was gone. i have closed and opened, restarted - to no effect. other documents dont have this problem.
    in google i found only one other such case, however it was unanswered.
    please please help me

  • Firefox will not print correctly. When printing from Firefox it looks like it thinks the paper size is a 3 x 5.

    I tried re-installing Firefox 23.0.1. It printed fine for about 4 times and then it went back to the same problem.
    In order to get everything to print out I need to scale to "shrink to fit" but then it is so small I can't read it.
    I switched to Internet Explorer and everything prints fine.
    I have a Brother MFC9325CW printer. I have a PC with Windows XP

    Have you tried all explained in the [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]] or reset printer margins.
    #In order to check the margins, we need to go to ''File'' > ''Page Setup''.
    #Once this is done, switch to the ''Margins & Header/Footer'' tab.
    #Check what's set there under ''Margins''.
    The following are the default values for ''Margins'':
    '''Right''': 12.7
    '''Top''': 12.7
    '''Left''': 12.7
    '''Bottom''': 12.7
    Check these values accordingly and change them if necessary.

  • My Photosmart 375 no longer offers any paper size but A6. Where did the others go?

    And how do I get them back, esp 4x6 borderless?
    Any help appreciated.

    Iv had similar issues, I think next time I'm just going to ignore and keep going. The last project I made, I had the bit-rate just so so the final video timelines all added up would be about 46gb, my menu system was VERY basic, no animations, music, or background video. When I was ready to create ISO encore says the project is like 60 gb. So I went back to premiere, downsized the nitrates of everything to two the final project down 11gb, created the project again. Final size was about 49 gb. Create ISO, and under properties of the iso it says it's like 35 gb. Gimme a break! I still burned it, begrudgedly. But I think next time I get this I'll just ignore it. All I ended up doing was sacrificing bit-rate for nothing.

  • How do I print on a greeting card in landscape when I can't save custom paper size?

    I have a J6450 running on XP SP3 with the latest drivers and patches installed.  I have greeting card stock measuring 6.5 by 10.0 inches and a Microsoft Word document with a custom paper size matching the that stock prints in landscape mode.  The printer error is "Paper Mistmatch.  Paper size or type is incorrect."  I have followed the suggestions on the HP support page, changing the Print, Properties, Features options to show "Other greeting card", but can't define a custom paper size to match the stock.  The Save option is not available.  What do I need to do to make this work? 

    Here is a link to a HP document for adjusting several settings that may help with your issue.

  • Can no longer select or move audio clips on Narration track - what happened??

    I began my first Adobe Premiere Elements 11 project this morning, a short video (5 mins) I intend to upload to YouTube.  It's a comedy sketch involving inanimate objects that "talk", so it requires a lot of dialogue to be added to, in this case, the Narration track.
    I am not new to Premiere Elements.  In fact, I've done quite a bit of fairly complex editing on previous versions of the software (I upgraded to 11.0 from 8.0).  I've never had this problem before.
    After editing this project for well over 2 hours with no problem, I can suddently no longer move or even select any audio clip on my Narration track.  They are just frozen and stuck there.  Everything else works normally.  I can select and move all other clips on all other tracks.  Further, all audio clips will play, even the ones on the Narration track.  However, I can no longer move, select, or even add any clip to the Narration track.
    I opened a new project to see if the problem persisted, but it didn't - I could add, select, move audio clips on the Narration track just fine.
    I'm stuck and bewildered.  The project I've already invested 2-3 hours into seems permanently broken.  The audio clips on my Narration track will play, but I can't select, move, or otherwise do anything to them.
    My fear is not just that I'll have to start this project over again, but I'll never know when it will break again, and I'll lose all my work again.
    Help!
    Seriously, does anyone know what's happened?

    sleinbach
    Thanks for the details. As I suggested this idea that I had after reading this thread may be just nonesense, but I thought it would be interesting to try.
    This is recommended done with a copy of the project that you have now.
    For now, let us assume that the missing track names are part of the locked Narration Track syndrome. I am not sure if your narration clip was generated in Premiere Elements narration feature or created elsewhere and brought into the program. That would be interesting information to have. But, nonetheless, moving forward with this idea.
    Given you cannot move, delete, change, etc what is on this Narration Track. Whatever is on that Narration Track traces back to an original on the hard drive and probably is shown in Media Cache's (Adobe Folder) as  conformed audio cfa and pek set.
    a. Find the narration hard drive hard location and move it to a new location (special folder on hard drive). When you go back to the copy of the problem project, you should be greeted with one of those "Where is....?" messages. Cancel out of that. Do not do anything within that message dialog.
    b. Right click the thumbnail for your narration in Project Media and select Replace Footage. Then browse to and select the original that you had moved to the computer desktop and the special folder there.. Click OK. That should restore the file (including whatever effects were made to the file) to the project.
    c. Has any of that had any effect on unlocking the Narration Track?
    Other maneuvers to try
    a. Trying to locate and delete any cfa or pek files associated with the problem audio.
    b. Switching to an Aero Theme for Windows if you do not have one set so far.
    Thanks for giving all of that a look at.

  • I can no longer search events on iPhoto

    Why has phono changed so you no longer can search through events and only photos? I now have to scroll through 100's of photos to find the one I want. How can I get the event search back? This is not good!!!!!

    First make sure this checkbox is checked in iPhoto's General preference pane:
    What number is next to the Events icon in the left hand window? 
    When you click on the Events icon in the left hand pane what do you see in the right hand window?
