Print Dialog broken in iWeb 09

All I want to do is print a single page from my iWeb site under construction. When the "Print" dialog is used, the preview comes up just fine but when you actually hit the "print" button nothing happens. It's the same for using "Save as PDF" or any other function, it just does nothing.
The printer itself works just fine in every other application, PS, Preview, Mail etc., this is specific to iWeb apparently.
I've attempted all the usual methods of troubleshooting the software from DiskWarrior, Onyx etc to no avail. Anyone had this problem and know the fix?

With further troubleshooting it turns out it's not an iWeb problem at all, for some reason Snow Leopard lost it's printer communication settings.
A quick "reset printing system" command and a reinstallation of drivers did the trick now all is well.
On a side note, Epson has recently released updated Snow Leopard drivers; I noticed that my "printing" interface has changed since the previous driver and apparently is more stable as well.

  • [Solved] Print dialog under KDE broken?

    Hi,
    this is how the print dialog has been looking for me in KDE (system is up-to-date) for the last 2-3 months now.
    I was hoping it would get fixed after a few KDE/CUPS updates but some time has passed, updates came and it's still broken.
    Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? Is there a way to fix this?
    Thank you

    hmm, I am not sure. in systemsettings I have this:
    application appearance -> style -> oxygen
    workspace appearance -> window decorations -> oxygen
    workspace appearance -> desktop -> theme -> air
    gtk styles and fonts -> useanotherstyle: QtCurve
    I don't know if this oxygen style/decoration/theme is gtk or not. how do I check that? I have this oxygen-gtk package installed on my system but I don't know if it's in use somewhere or not.
    the funny thing is, this does not happen for firefox for example. but it does for EOG (eye of gnome) where both of them are gnome apps if I am correct. it does not happen for kate (kde text editor), does for gedit (now that I opened gedit, I see it's broken in the same way as this print dialog from the screenshot above is).
    @msx - I'll try reproducing the bug with fresh .kde and post results here. extra/kdeadmin-system-config-printer-kde wasn't on my system, but I installed it, rebooted but nothing changed. other packages you mentioned were already on my system.

  • Print dialog box truncates device names

    Is Firefox using an older .DLL or printing routing when one does a "File > Print"? The reason I ask is that our networked printers have long UNC path names. When you click Print the dialog box truncates the names and you don't know where you're printing too.
    Other applications seem to use a newer .DLL/printing routing where when you Print you can horizontally scroll and see the full names of the printers.
    Broken applications include Acrobat v9.x products; Firefox products.
    Applications that work are: IE; Chrome; notepad; Adobe Reader 10, etc.
    Is there a way to force firefox to use the newer/scrollable version of the Print Dialog Box?
    thanks...

    The print dialog hasn't changed in many years, if ever. IIRC, it was the same back in Phoenix 0.3 (fall of 2002), the first version of Firefox I used. AFAIK, it's from the Netscape days (like over 14 years ago)

  • "Bonjour Printers" missing from  "Printer:" pull-down in Print dialog box

    One of our users has recently lost the ability to add Bonjour printers. For example, if he presses Command-p to open the Print dialog box, then clicks on the arrows icon to produce the list of available printers, the "Bonjour Printers" option does not appear in the list. None of the others in our small group (six of us, all with identical 1.67Ghz G4 Powerbooks running identical OSX versions - 10.4.3 with all updates applied) have experienced this problem. The user in question reports seeing the expected Bonjour option in the recent past and claims to have installed noting more than the recommended OSX updates in the mean time.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Chance

    Thanks for the reply.
    Our user's problem was "fixed" when he arrived at work a day later and happened to look in the pirnter menu only to discover that the "Bonjour Printers" option had reappeared. He had made no configuration changes in the mean time.
    I can confirm that he wasn't imagining things in either instance. In fact, we used Bonjour Browser when things were broken and again after they were "fixed". In the former case, only two or three Bonjour items were listed, while in the latter there were 13 local services, including the Print Spooler.
    All our Macs get their IP configuration via DHCP, so it is possible that various network configuration changes were made without our intervention. Nonetheless, this is very odd behavior.

  • Adobe PS CS3 has major flaws in Print Dialog. Beware!

    System Specs:
    OSX Leopard 10.5.2
    MacPro 3.2ghz with 32GB of ram 1.5GB Video
    Epson 11880 Printer
    Samsung XL20 LED monitors calibrated using EyeOne Pro 6500k 2.2 and 120c/d
    I have been trying to build a custom profile for my new Epson 11880. However, my results have been unsuccessful. All my prints came out super dark. The color is all off except for the grey scale.
    After talking to Epson for hours I found out that the new Beta driver for the printers have a problem, so rolled back to v3.89. This fixed all printer problems. So printer is fine now. This also applies to the Epson 3800.
    Spoke to Apple about their color management and Leopard issues? No fault found on the OS.
    Ran a test using preview, iPhoto, EyeOneMatch, Photoshop CS, and CS3. I couldn't find my CS2 disk so I didn't get a chance to test that. preview, iPhoto, CS, and EyeOneMatch all came out with same results when printing a 9.18 target without PCM. However, CS3 printed the image dark and off color with the exact same settings. Problem has been persistent and I would like to conclude that CS3 needs to fix this bug in their software. It is ridiculous to be printing using another software because CS3 can't do a simple task as print.

    viewing conditions are fine.
    I have the whole room outfitted with GTI D50 lights. What can I say I am anal. No matter where you stand the light will hit 5000k. I change the bulbs out every 1500 hours although they tell me I can wait until 2000 hours.
    My monitor is also calibrated properly. I am using the Samsung XL20 and XL30 monitors, which surpass the Eizo or any other LCD's on the market. I've owned the Eizo, NEC, Artisan, and any other monitors you can name. I also made sure my Spectrometer is fine and it is.
    When printing targets with the setting set to NO Color Management in Photoshop it should yield the same results as the other applications. The only thing you are technically utilizing then is the printer driver and dialog box. Yes the printer dialog is always same and set properly also. PCM is set to no color management. I've tested this with other applications and it is CS3 that is giving me all the problems.

  • Print Dialog doesn't retain settings

    I am using kPrintActionCmdBoss to print several times from the same document (different layers each time). I want to put up the print dialog the first time, and then keep the user's settings for the subsequent prints. I can see that the settings are remembered by the document:
    IDocument* iDoc = Utils<ILayoutUIUtils>()->GetFrontDocument();
    InterfacePtr<IPrintData> docPrintData(iDoc->GetDocWorkSpace(), UseDefaultIID());
    bool16 debug1 = docPrintData->GetPrintBlankPages();
    debug1 is kTrue if I ticked the 'Print Blank Pages' box in the dialog.
    I try setting the print command's print data:
    InterfacePtr<ICommand> printActionCmd(CmdUtils::CreateCommand(kPrintActionCmdBoss));
    InterfacePtr<IPrintCmdData> printActionCmdData(printActionCmd, UseDefaultIID());
    printActionCmdData->SetPrintData(docPrintData);
    but the print command seems to pay no attention to the settings.
    Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
    Thanks,
    Charles

    I also wonder why there is no "print preview" option in the Firefox print dialog box. I don't want a "workaround"—I simply want a print preview option the same way every other Mac application provides it in the print dialog box.
    Where did this go??

  • Print dialog not displaying when trying to print PDF document

    Hello All,
    I am using below code to print a pdf file. And the same code working fine when i am using with simple java class. and if i am using the same code with my jsf backing bean action method it was not working.
    Code here:
    Document document = new Document();
    FileOutputStream combinedOutput = new FileOutputStream(bulkBarcodes);
    PdfWriter.getInstance(document, combinedOutput);
    document.open();
    String barCodeNum = filetrakcode.getBarCodeID().toString();

    document.add(new Paragraph("\n"));
    document.add(new Paragraph("\n"));
    Image image = Image.getInstance(bc.generateBarcodeBytes(bc.getBarcode()));
    document.add(image);
    combinedOutput.flush();
    document.close();
    combinedOutput.close();
    File f = new File(bulkBarcodes.getAbsolutePath());

    printJob.setPageable(book);
    //Send print job to default printer
    if(printJob.printDialog())
    printJob.print();
    When i am calling my action method (method contains above code) it was creating pdf file and writing the data init success fully but when i have not used "if(printJob.printDialog())" it was printing document directely successfully but when i am calling "if(printJob.printDialog())" it was not opening print dialog box and it was showing me like process is going on and it was not proceeding further
    what's the problem
    Please help me.
    Thanks In advance,

    Hi Kavi,
    just have a look into the driver-program. I'm pretty sure someone has programmed a loop.
    IF it is a NAST-driver program, check if your specific user has a printer SU03. That sounds a lot like this mistake

  • Print dialog options in case sensitive file system

    Since changing the file system running Lion and Mountain Lion from Mac OS Extended (Journaled) to Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled), certain features in print dialogs have disappeared.
    Particularly the option to print notes with slides in Microsoft Powerpoint are gone. Also, when choosing to print only 1 (or more, but not all) of multiple pages in Microsoft Word, the printer will nevertheless print all pages.
    This problem occurs on printers of different brands, i.e. HP, Lexmark, Brother.
    I was able to determine this problem by reproducing the issue on a cleanly installed Macbook Pro with OS X 10.8 formatted as Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) vs a cleanly installed Macbook Pro with OS X 10.8 formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled), not Case-sensitive.
    Has anyone else had the same problem and maybe a solution?

    I just fixed this on my Mac. It is a bug in Microsoft Office... the Printer Dialog Extension (PDE) for Powerpoint is located in a directory named "Plugins", but PowerPoint is looking for it in "PlugIns". This obviously does not work in a case-sensitive filesystem.
    Here are the steps to fix the issue:

  • Newbie:  In printing dialog, "Scale to" size options are greyed out

    I am in the initial stages of figuring out how to use Aperture (v1.5). I am currently trying to make a 5x7 print of a photo.
    In the print dialog, "Scale to" 4x6, 5x7, 8x10 size options are greyed out (only "fit image" and "fill entire page" are available).
    I've tried searching through the forums, but to no avail...
    Thanks!

  • Printing a report and using the print dialog for it

    i already have the print dialog vi from NI. I am using the normal report generation toolkit for printing reports. But I want to give the user an option to choose the number of pages and landscape/portrait options. But how do I integrate the 2 so that before printing the user can select these features.

    There is an activeX control that will set these settings. It is called IAS Helper COM Component 1.0 Type Library. It operates the Windows printer configuration program. Since another company wrote the code, I do not have the resources to help you use the control, but the attached example program should get you started.

  • "Quality and Media" not displaying in Print dialog.

    I am using Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard on a Macbook Pro with a Canon MB5220 Multifunction printer over WiFi. I have installed the Canon Drivers and can print to the printer but the "Quality and Media" menu choice does not display in the print dialog so I can't set any of the quality settings or the color settings for the printer.
    I installed and re-installed the drivers. Tried with several applications such as TextEdit and preview. Only menu choices are Layout, Color Matching, Paper Handling, Cover Page, Scheduler.
    Is there anything that would keep Quality and Media from dispaying?

    It's not just the Quality & Media menu that appears to be missing. There are three other Canon menus you should see like below;
    These menu items are supported by the plugins bundle installed in /Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinter/PDEs, which supports a number of Canon inkjet printers. Since reinstalling the driver for the MG5220 has not helped then I would try a reset of the printing system and then adding the printer again. To reset the printing system, open Print & Fax, move the mouse over the Printers list and Control-click. The reset popup will appear. Select it and authenticate if prompted and then restart the Mac. Please note that this action will remove all printer and scanner queues from Print & Fax, but not the associated drivers so just the queues will need to be added again.
    If this action does not resolve the problem then try running the Canon Driver Update v2.6.

  • Print html file without seeing a print dialog box

    i need to script an action that would allow a user to print a sparcly formated html file to a printer while bypassing the normal print dialog box.
    the unix lpr command seems like it might work, but the man page only mentions PS and txt files.
    Ultimately i'd want to trigger the print action from a php script, but it could be a folder action also.
    Does anyone have any suggestions or point me in the right direction.

    lp is the right command to use but you may need to convert the html file in PDF format before printing it. Just test it. Also type man lp to see more options.
    enscript is a nice utility that may help you. man enscript for more.

  • How to print specific pages of a pdf from a vb 2013 program using a print dialog

    Hi.  I am using the acrobat sdk to display pdfs from within a vb 2013 program, because the pdfs are large and we have developed indexes on certain columns.  The indexes are stored in SQL tables.  My program has a search window which allows the user to search for a value and displays all the pages on which this value appears in the indexed column in a listbox.  By double-clicking on the desired value in the listbox, the user can go to the selected page and column.  However, the user also needs to be able to highlight one or more of the pages in the listbox and print these pages.  I could do this silently using AcroExchAVDoc.PrintPages, but the user also needs to have a print dialog displayed in order to possibly select a watermark to be printed on the pages.  I also need to default the orientation of the pages depending on the document.
    I have reviewed the sdk documentation and also searched in Google and on this site but have not found a way to do this.  Does anyone have a suggestion?  Thanks for any help you can provide.
    Mary

    Hi.
    I did try using the printParams feature and it worked, but since I need to be able to print sets of non-consecutive pages,  I end up having to bring up the print dialogue multiple times and have the user set watermarks each time. 
    I decided to just create a new pdf in a temp directory containing the selected pages and open this document in a new window.  This works well and allows them to use the print button on the window to print, bringing up the print dialogue just once.  However, since I need to open the document in a way that shows the print button, I am using OpenInWindowEx, with AV_DOC_VIEW, and the option PDUseBookmarks or PDUseThumbs, rather than PDUseNone.  This displays a toolbar which also includes icons for creating a new pdf, deleting pages, etc.  I do not really want to include these icons on the toolbar.  Is there a way to remove unwanted icons from the toolbar, or make them invisible?
    Hope this makes sense.  Thanks for your help.
    Mary

  • After updating to Firefox 32.0.3 Print Dialog box will not apear in XP/Win7Pro after a while but a restart of Firefox will allow it to show up again..

    After automatically updating to 32.0.3 last Thursday and this Monday on all our Staff and Patron computers both Win7 pro and XP pro we have seen Firefox sessions that will not bring up the Print Dialog. The Print Preview dialog will come up but no print button or print menu item will bring up the Print Dialog. After you close Firefox and reopen it the Print Dialog box will work again for some time. The websites that Patron and Staff use during a session are different and done seem to be the cause. The Firefox settings are at fault because a simply restart of just Firefox fixes the issue and no other web browsers or application has any problem with displaying the Print Dialog at any time. Again this began on all the computers as soon as 32.0.3 was installed automatically over night.

    Hi NPLD,
    Thank you for your question, I understand that there are multiple computers that no longer have a working print dialogue after a while of using Firefox. However after a restart, the print dialogue continues to act normally.
    Does resetting the printing settings on the affected computers only temporarily change this as well?[[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
    I noticed it when I tested this page: [http://www.housebeautiful.com/decorating/home-makeovers/1920s-home-before-after?src=spr_FBPAGE&spr_id=1451_94608649#slide-2] However I cannont reproduce it all the time. The print icon in the page has a opened a printable view and then the print dialoge comes up. When I switched to another program, that icon did not open the preview.
    Do you notice any about:config entries that change when you see this start to happen?
