Print function causes VI to hang.

I am running two VIs concurrently one is an "operator screen" and one is a "test screen".
When I print the front panel of the test screen using the "Print Panel.vi" all VIs will hang for about 1 to 3 seconds.
This interuppts the data flow on the other VIs.
Is there a way to eliminate this interuption?
See attached example

Perhaps if the two VIs were running in different threads? Can't say for sure because you only posted one VI and that VI was missing all the subvis so I couldn't run the example.

All print functions cause freezing

Whenever I try to print to my HP OfficeJet 6310, my Mac freezes. If I go to System Preferences to examine the print settings, it also freezes. I tried uninstalling the print driver, but this also causes the Mac to freeze.
I recently enabled Google Cloud Printing in Chrome and wondered if this could be causing the problem since printing was working before I did this. I disabled it and restarted but am still having the same problem.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
Printables can be managed / scheduled through your HP Connected Account.
The Safari browser, in particular, historically does not work to manage the HP Connected Account Printables.
Try installing a Browser OTHER than the Safari browser to manage your Printables from your iPad.

Photoshop CC, selecting print function causes all menus to become unavailable

Yesterday PS CC worked fine. Today I have started PS, selected an image and then selected 'File/print' - nothing happens, and all options in the drop down menu's are greyed out. I can't deselect the image or close PS other than through task manager. Can someone advise what has happened and how I can correct this issue? Don't know if this is relevant but there were some windows updates last night.
Help would be greatly appreciated!

Print Functionality in CE NWDS

Hello Gurus ,
I had a situation in using Print Functionality .
I had CE- NW 7.10 Server Application in which I had used the Print Fucntionality by using the
WDPrintService.getPrintService().print(wdThis.wdGetAPI());
Now I am trying to run this application on NW 7.0 server by making this as a Federated Portal Iview . ON doing so , I encounters 2 difficulties :
1. The Print fucntionality button which is working fine in case of CE 7.1 is no showing as Print Operation not supported .
2. Secondly Just before onclick on Print Button action , I am presented with a new Browser window , which asks for the Login credentials of CE server , since my FPN iview resides there . and once I am done with login , it throws me the exception in Portal , I check he logs in NWA of CE server coz that is where the Iview is running .
Here are the atached logs :

Enabling the printing function of your HP Laserjet M1005 printer

If you wonder how to install the printing function of your HP Laserjet M1005 printer, here is listed a bullet list of the actions. This has just been tested out thanks to the Support team from Germany
Go to the page http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?prodNameId=1 839459&lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=1839458&taskId=135 and select the link Mac OS X; download the link "HP LaserJet M1005 MFP Mac OS X Full Software Solution"
Use the opportunity to update your printer firmware by selecting the link "Printer Firmware Update"
Shutdown your Mac and start up in the safe boot mode (should be the combined keyboard shift and power on/off - refer to the Apple web site for details)
Run the downloaded SW package listed in the step 1
Go and select under system settings printer and fax, follow the step-by-step instructions to have a printer installed
Shutdown your Mac and start up again in the safe boot mode
Connect your printer and the printer SW installation message shoud pop up requesting you to install it
SW download process should appear and run
Be aware that just the printing function will be available - no scanning function so far
For those who may be interested in knowing why safe boot mode: it is likelz that my anti-virus SW Kaspersky denied the installation.

Safari causing full-system hang

For a while now I've been getting the SBOD irregularly in Safari, since 3.x if I remember right. I've got some time off work at the minute so I'm finally looking into this properly, and here's what I've found:
There seems to be two separate conditions. The first happens on loading some, but not all web pages, causes a lengthy hang in which the entire system (even invoking Dashboard or Spaces) becomes unresponsive. In the console this accompanied by an entry similar to the following:
05/10/2010 08:15:47 /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari[242] ATS AutoActivation: Query timed out. (elapsed 5.0 seconds. params: queryString = {comapple_ats_namepostscript == "Helvetica-Neue" && kMDItemContentTypeTree != com.adobe.postscript-lwfn-font}, valueListAttrs = {<CFArray 0x6f5710 [0xa008dee0]>{type = immutable, count = 1, values = (
0 : <CFString 0xa01602c8 [0xa008dee0]>{contents = "kMDItemContentType"}
)}}, sortingAttrs = {<CFArray 0x6f5730 [0xa008dee0]>{type = immutable, count = 1, values = (
0 : <CFString 0xa01603a8 [0xa008dee0]>{contents = "kMDItemContentModificationDate"}
)}}, scopeList = {<CFArray 0x6f5750 [0xa008dee0]>{type = immutable, count = 1, values = (
0 : <CFString 0xa0161a98 [0xa008dee0]>{contents = "kMDQueryScopeComputer"}
(sometimes it names a font, sometimes the font name is "_")
I suspect this means some vestigial adobe product has messed my system right up. I used to use CS4 but have long since removed it. I also have Air and Flash (the current gala beta) installed. I have had fontbook validate Helvetica Neue and check all fonts for duplicates - if external disks are plugged in at this time they all spin up.
The other case is when downloading a file through clicking a link or alt-clicking a link (right-clicking a picture and saving it to the downloads folder does not cause this behaviour), and is accompanied by this much sparser line in the console:
05/10/2010 08:25:06 kernel disk0s2: I/O error.
The files themselves can be opened, moved and copied without incident and at regular speeds, so I doubt disk corruption. I've also performed a few full clone/restores on my boot disk with no effect. My initial thoughts were to blame a long-forgotten folder action that sorted downloads into different places (including a network share, if present), but disabling folder actions has not helped.
So, any ideas? I'm fresh out.

A workaround for the font-problem seems to be to turn off ATS - it's in FontBook.
The second issue still eludes me.
Things I have tried:
Trashing ~/Library/Safari/
Trashing ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari*
Cleaning out every vestigial trace of anything suspect I had on my system (google keystone, logitech control centre, SIMBL, The Spark, iStat Menus, folder actions)
Interestingly, the issue is not present for the guest user, so it IS something wrong with my user account. I just can't figure out what.
Yes, making a brand new account would fix all this, providing I'm meticulous about testing the issue as I move /Users/Old/ into /Users/New/, but I'm kind of loathe to give up. It's surely something really simple!

How do I use the print function to output a numeric variable with a fixed amount of leading zeroes

I need to create an output from a T-SQL query that picks a numeric variable and uses the print function to output with leading zeroes if it is less than three characters long when converted to string. For example if the variable is 12 the output should
be 012 and if the variable is 3 the output should be 003.
Presently the syntax I am using is PRINT STR(@CLUSTER,3) . But if @CLUSTER which is numeric is less than three characters I get spaces in front.
Please help!

>> I need to create an output from a T-SQL query .. <<
NO! NO! In RDBMS, we have a presentation layer that handles displays. We do not ever do it in the database. This is fundamental. But more than that, the purpose of PRINT is for debugging in T-SQL and never for output.
You are still writing 1960's COBOL or BASIC, but you want to to it in SQL. You probably picked the wrong data type (a numeric that should be a string) and are trying to repair your design error.

Sharpener Pro 3 has problems in Aperture as the Pre sharpener continually asks one to buy or activate and the Output Sharpener causes Aperture to hang. Have removed all duplicate fonts and tried using a new user account. Any ideas?

I am experiencing problems with Sharpener Pro 3 as an Aperture 3 plug-in. These are: the Pre sharpener continually asks one to buy or activate and the Output Sharpener causes Aperture to hang. Following discussions with Nik Software I have removed all duplicate fonts and tried using a new user account. Neither of the courses of action worked. Have other users experienced these difficulties? Can you suggest an alternative remedy?

Infopath 2013 Print Function

Hi Folks,
I need to understand Infopath Print functionality. It's a basic question, but please help me.
My Infoapth form has 2 views. View A and View B. I want Print version of both forms. I have created a separated print view for both forms Print_ViewA and Print _ViewB (I have removed Submit buttons and other buttons from print version). Now when users fills
View A , how he will be directed to Print the form? I mean should I give a separate print button and on clicking print button shold i redirect to print_viewA or what.
I need a basic understanding of print function.
Please suggest.

I have already gone through the link before. I did all the thing. Now what i want is a Print button on my View A. and when user clicks the Print button it should print the print version of my form.
Am I clear to explain the problem?

The print function on websites doesn't work in Firefox.

I want to print information from a certain website by selecting the Print View button. That works. But when I select the Print function, nothing happens. In other words, Firefox has stopped printing from websites. Other print functions (such as Word 2007) work just fine.

Same problem, could not print web page. Deleted HP Smart Web Print program. Print function worked after removal. Firefox 4 Beta 8

Can no longer print from Photoshop CS^ have upgraded drivers error message reads There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents."

I have upgraded my iMac to Yosemite but now my two Canon Printers no longer print from Photoshop CS6. I have upgraded the drivers. All other applications including Lightroom are fine. I am receiving an error message as follows:"There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents." How can I get the OS to return a list of printers to Photoshop when Photoshop requests a list.

Have you printed to this printer from 10.10 before? If so, check your connections.

I can no longer print off a web page (eg Flight booking confirmation). Other printer functions are OK. Any ideas?

My printer will no longer print off web-pages, either from the tool bar command or from the "print page" command. This has only just happened and seeems to have followed a MS up-date, but can't be sure.
Can anyone suggest a fix?
All other printer functions work OK.
Many thanks.

My printer is HP Photosmart C4650 Series. I can print from everything but the Web. I don't get an error message or anything it just will not print.
I'm using Windows 7, it had been doing fine than it just decided to quit printing from the web.
T'hank You,
Angelia

Cannot print with a Samsung ML2160 printer (mono laser) and Pages. Print function doesn't work, only drag and drop in printer's queue

Hello,
I just purchased a Samsung ML2160 printer and it doesn't work with nor my Pages program, nor the Preview (to print PDF). No matter the way I tried, the Print function doesn't work and I cannot neither print or even enter the printer preferrences menu! My MacBook Pro has worked before with other printers, but now with the Samsung it doesn't work at all... Though, if I drag and drop a document, jpg, pdf in the printer queue, it prints just fine, but that method gives me absolutely no freedom to the printing... Could it be something from the Computer -> Machintosh HD -> Library -> Printers? Because a friend of mine was recently trying to save me some disk space, and therefore erasing part of the HP printer (to remove the previous printer I owned)...
If anyone has any idea, that would be much appreciated
Thank you in advance

Do the sensible thing, as you say neither Preview nor Pages print, try other programs eg TextEdit. If none of them print then it is a System problem and very likely the printer drivers are AWOL or were never installed.
Go to Samsung's website and download their software for the Mac:

Non-Apple browsers cause cascading system hang with clean install of Lion

It started with Google Chrome. After a few hours of use, Chrome would randomly lock up one renderer at a time until it was completely unresponsive. Console showed nothing conclusive in the logs, and would soon lock up itself. Logged-in Terminal windows could sometimes get as far as a "ps auxc", but would lock up during the command output, and new Terminal windows or tabs would never get past login. The SSH daemon would be dead in the water, preventing me from logging in remotely. Any existing SSH connections would hang on the first command. Activity Monitor would lock up the moment I tried to sample a process or interact with anything. Interacting with SystemUIServer (pulling down the menu for the clock or trying to do a Spotlight search) would cause SystemUIServer to hang. Same with the Dock. My mouse was like the Midas of software failure: everything I touched turned to hang. Eventually I'd be staring at a spinning beachball. After a few (five to ten) minutes, it might perform a couple queued events (opening a window, switching to another application) but would usually become wedged again immediately, forcing me to hard restart.
I then tried installing Firefox 5, and discovered that it causes the hang fairly reliably within the first ten seconds. Since I knew when it was about to happen, I managed to capture a few stack traces in Activity Monitor, but it was always different, and always somewhere in the kernel (usually file-system related: __getattrlist while scanning fonts one time, the open system call another).
Safari, on the other hand, works great.
I've tried performing a verification of my startup disk, which returns no errors, so although I'm not ruling out hardware failure at this point the problem started immediately after I upgraded to Lion, and persisted even after I wiped my hard drive completely and performed a clean install from the recovery partition. It also doesn't seem to be completely the fault of either Chrome or Firefox, since they're different browsers with different rendering engines using different system frameworks. They do both perform a lot of file I/O, so maybe that's a clue. Another possible lead is the seemingly random errors Console will spew out while the hang is occuring. Most recently I've gotten a screenful of '--ImageKit Error: updateGLTextureWithBitmapData: glPixelStorei returned an error : 506 ...', and before that it was 'Google Chrome Helper: CGSLookupServerRootPort: Failed to look up the port for "com.apple.windowserver.active" (1100)', "kernel: IOSurface: buffer allocation size is zero". Console spew being what it is, though, I don't know if any of that is relevant.
I figure I would be seeing quite a lot of angry forum threads if Chrome and Firefox were completely unusable on other people's machines, so I'm guessing there's something specific to my configuration happening here. With a clean install, though, I'm not sure what it could be. Here are detailed system specs:
24" iMac (Early 2008 -- just out of AppleCare coverage, figures) , 2.8 GHz, 2GB RAM, running Lion build 11A511 (which should be the 10.7 release version).
I would be massively indebted to anyone who has experienced or heard about this issue before and can give me something else to try.

Zeroing the disk serves no purpose in this situation. It is a common misconception that this is required to map out bad blocks on the drive, but the fact is that 1) modern hard drives map out bad blocks as part of everyday operation, and 2) zeroing the drive involves simply writing zeros with no checks to see if the zero was written successfully, so it wouldn't know if a block was bad anyway.
It's possible the drive is starting to go bad, although then there should be some problems with SL as well. I would recommend repartitioning the drive with Disk Utility. Make sure it's got one partition, using the GUID partition map scheme, and format that partition as Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Repartitioning should get rid of any gremlins lurking on the disk, unless the physical disk itself is dying. And after repartitioning, install straight from the flash drive, as Shootist recommends, rather than installing SL first.
Hardware could be an issue. It's entirely possible for an older system to work fine on slightly faulty hardware while a newer system does not. Running Apple Hardware Test wouldn't be a bad idea.
Firmware updates wouldn't be a bad idea. However, note that my mid-2010 MBP with the same specs is running Lion just fine, and I've never installed any firmware updates. (Firmware updates scare me... if my machine is running just fine, I'm reluctant to risk installing new firmware. But that's probably just a bit of paranoia talking. )

There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents. Error message in PhotoShop CC

Printing from PS CC worked fine today. I made no changes to preferences. In between working with 2 projects, the first one printed fine, the second gave me this Error Message.
There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents.
Now I've checked for updates for my printer, reset my printer, reset PS CC preferences, picked my printer as Default and Last Used, and rebooted. I've followed all the recommended fixes for this issue I could find here and on the internet. I can print fine from any other program. Alas, the error message keeps popping up and I can't print.
PS CC is up to date
Running OS 10.10.2
HP Printer updated
Help?

Have you printed to this printer from 10.10 before? If so, check your connections.
