Print jobs pause automatically.

Hello
Trying to print threw my home network (wired with the correct address) on a Canon MP780. Each time I printed the job pauses. I click resume and it pauses again. I downloaded the latest driver from Canon and Gutenprint 5.0.2
appreciate any help
thanks

I have the same general issue, but with slightly different behavior. I print over a network to two different HP laserjets using IP printing. I find I can print just fine from most applications (e.g., Word, PowerPoint) except Adobe applications. When I try to print from Illustrator or Acrobat, the job is sent to the printer and I can see it in the queue. But, as you describe, the printer immediately pauses. If I go into the queue and unpause the printer, then the job immediately stops (the printer doesn't pause, the job stops). If I restart the job, the printer immediately pauses again. It goes back and forth like this forever. This happens on one of the printers I typically use. On the other HP printer I commonly use, the job never pauses, but I get a message in the printer dialog that says: "unable to get printer status (Not Implemented)" On this printer the job is listed as printing, but it never goes anywhere. I have deleted this printer and re-added it, all to no avail.
Note that this happens regardless of whether I use CS3 or an old copy of CS1 that printed fine before I upgraded to Leopard.
I looked on Adobe's web site for a discussion of this issue and found none.

  • Spooled printing job getting automatically deleted in 10 sec

    Connected Printer: HP Deskjet 3820/3822 Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP Connection Port: ParallelCheck of the driver setting shows no problem. However whenever I am trying to print a Notepad or word document, it is spooling to the printer -- printer window is showing status -- "printing" -- then in 10 sec the status automatically changing to --- "deleting" print job! Any suggestion? 

    I have the exact same problem, with all my HP Photosmart and all in one  printers?  Did you ever get this resolved?
    could you let me know what the repair is if you know i would greatly appreciate it.

  • Print Job pauses immediately

    Some helpful info
    Our offices use only Toshiba and HP printer/scanners/copiers
    We are domained but the 'agents' own their own computers and they are NOT domained
    We run a Windows environment
    Both users were able to print for upwards of 2+/- months and then the printing stopped suddenly for no reason
    Now onto the issue:
    We have 2 users with MacBook Pro's OSX 10.6.8 who can successfully print to all of the HP printers in the office but can NOT print to the Toshiba eStudio printers; model 520, 655, and 3530C. The latest drivers have been downloaded from copiers.toshiba.com and they are auto-selected when adding the printers by IP but when attempting to print a test page the printer/copier status changes to 'paused' I have reset the printer system and rebooted the machine several times.
    I have tried using each of the 'Generic' drivers that come with the machines as well as many different vairations of drivers available from the Toshiba website.
    The only relevant error that both users get in the cups log is:
    Backend returned status -8 (crashed)
    I've tried Google, MacRumors, Yahoo Answers, etc with combined views of 300+ and not even one suggestion, Im at a loss any advice would be greatly appreciated.

  • Hi, may i know how to resume the print job from HP P1102w?

    I've configured the P1102W as ePrinter if there anyway to resume the printer in stead of cancel the print job when the printer out of paper?

    Dear ccyee425, 
    Once you load the paper the print job should automatically resume if it does not unfortunately there is not an option to resume the job in the ePrintCenter. You have to send the job again.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • Initial Print jobs 'communication error with device'. Pause and restart job

    So, I have an odd variant of the Leopard print problem; on 3 separate systems.
    When I print to an HP Photosmart C7180, which setup fine, which I can scan to fine, the print job throws an error :error communicating with device, switch on and off' and so forth. It does that from any app, and consistently. I am printing via bonjour, the printer is networked, but on a static IP.
    To fix this EVERY-TIME I PAUSE printer, then start printer again. It immediately starts working, consistently until I sleep, log out, or don't print for a while.
    This seems to be some timeout issue or such. I tried IP printing, but no difference.
    Resetting the print system also did not help.
    It's not catastrophic but sooo annoying. Any input appreciated!
    Thx,
    Dan

    Hello SunnygirlQ. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Unfortunately, not all USB printers are compatible with AirPort base stations. In addition, the AirPort's USB port does not support the "advanced" printer functions, like scanning, copying or faxing, of multi-function printers.
    To see if your printer is compatible, take a look at this iFelix Unofficial AirPort Printer Compatibility link.
    If your printer isn't listed, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work, but simply that it has not been verified. iFelix also provides the following workaround for printers not on the list that would certainly be worth a try.
    Also you can try this Apple Tech Support article to see if it will help:
    o Printer troubleshooting for AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express
    I assume that this printer works just fine when it is connected directly to your Mac ... correct? If so, has it worked when connected to the AX in the past ... or has it always had this problem? If it did work correctly before, did you do any updates, especially to the AX, recently?

  • How to get laserjet to pause between print jobs

    I just reinstalled my OS (Win7) over the weekend, and the laserjet P1102w is working fine, but it is doing one thing differently than before. For as long as I can remember (even going back to an earlier laserjet 1018), I could send 2-3 print jobs to the printer. When the first was done,  the printer would pause for a few seconds, and only then, start pushing out the pages of the second print job (I'd use that pause to alert me to go to the printer and scoop up all the pages of that first job).
    Now, it isn't doing that.
    Is there a setting to check? Honestly I'm not sure what to look for, but I didn't see anything in Windows' printer preferences.

    Hi paulri,
    Sorry that I had misread your post. The pausing between print jobs, was most likely a function of a communication lag between the printer and the computer, and not a feature of the printer or the software. This option is not available with the Operating Systems print spooler.
    As a workaround, I would just print one document at a time, and wait for it to finish printing, before printing the next document.
    For future reference, just in case you may need it, here is your printer's user guide.
    Thank you for posting, and have a nice day!

    Hi Freind,
    I hope you are doing good.
    Q1l:-
    Are these printers really physically attached to your Ultra-* parallel port (/dev/ecpp0)?
    and what device is "/dev/lp1"?
    Answer:-
    "/dev/lp1" which is printer "T" and "/dev/ecpp0" which is printer "Alis" are configured at OS level via "printmgr" on the same machine.
    This machine hostname is "tprinter" which is a print server. It is connected physically to "CIMA6120 LINE PRINTER".
    [what I meant is: what physical port is this printer attached to on the Solaris machine? is this a Ultra 5/10/60 machine? I don't recall the /dev/ecpp port
    existing on any modern sun hardware]
    "failed to open printer port" can mean:
    Answer2:-  It's is a 25 pin serial port cable connected to 25 pin parallel port of Optiplex GX100 machine.  I installed solaris 10 x86 to make print server. as our CIMA6120 its not a network printer, and our company want to print reports from oracle application to this printer.
    Q:-you have attached your printer to the wrong port?
    Answer: it is connected to the correct port.
    [again . . how do you know this or test this?]
    Answer2:- it is connected at the rare panel of the machine on a 25-hole connector (bidirectional).
    Q:-you have attached your printer to the right port, but are using the wrong name?
    Answer: I think we could have Alias, not necessarily give the same printer name.
    [what i was getting at here is that you think the printer is attached to the parallel port, but actually the cable
    is actually attached to the wrong port. For example the serial port on those older machines will fit but in that case, if you configure the printer with ecpp
    it's not pointing to the correct port]
    Answer2:-  I configured CIMA6120 with "/dev/lp1" port which was perfectly working, I print numerous pages with this configuration, Suddenly this error "moving-to-paused" occurred. as i said it is connected to the parallel port at the rare panel.  Initially, I attempted and tried to configure this printer with "/dev/ecpp0" port which was not successful.
    Q:-you have a bad or wrong cable?
    Answer:- I have checked the cable it is good.
    [how did you do the checking?]
    Answer2:- I tested the cable by connecting to other printer and it printed. so no problem with the cable.
    In the olden days when local printers like this was the norm, we'd do test like catting a file to the port and see if the printer lights
    up or responds. Something like: cat /etc/hosts > /dev/ecpp0 (or /dev/lp1, or whatever the device is). Then observe if the printer seems to
    receives anything, blinks, prints the host file. You are copying the file directly to the port outside of lp or other mechanism.
    Answer2:- I agree there was some conflict among the ports internally, or some process may be running at the background, that is why though it shows the request waiting in the queue it was moving to pause for some reason. when I check the error by command "lpstat -t" it sez "device busy" in /dev/lp1" file.
    Solution
    ============
    After goggling some more I found a fix for this issue at http://fixunix.com/solaris/143011-unaccepted-printer.html
    1, I tried to remove the printer from printmgr, cud not remove it.
    2, try kill the entries that going to /dev/lp1 port to printer "T". could not do it
    3, uncheck the default printer option via printmgr.
    4, Add a new printer name "test" with /dev/ecpp0" and reproduce the issue "got the same error"
    5, With the forum above it sez its a "bug" and the Bug ID: 6374608. here are the details of it:-
    Synopsis: No /devices entry for line printer
    http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatab...bug_id=6374608
    Workaround is to manually install the missing driver binding
    entry, using the command:
    update_drv -a -i '"lp"' ecpp
    This workaround should create the missing /dev/lp* devices. And after
    running it, you should find the following line in "prtconf -D" output:
    lp, instance #0 (driver name: ecpp)
    6, I unplug the serial cable from the printer and turnoff and replug the serial cable to the printer and turn on the printer, made sure printer is ""ONLINE".
    7, I restart the Solaris machine and delete the newly created "Test" printer via printmgr.
    7, I just gave the lp /etc/passwd and it printed.
    Finally, I thank you for your time and suggest me your opinion on this solution please.
    Regards,
    MKY

  • Deleting a paused print job in HP 2540 deskjet

    I want to delete or cancel a print job I paused using wireless HP 2540 Deskjet all-in-one. I have been unable to get rid of it. I have tried:
    1. pressing the X on the top of the printer.
    2. Searching HP utility for a link to delete command.
    3. Going to HP help center (when click on DeskJet 2540 the link is empty)
    4. Unplugging the printer and plugging back in in a few minutes
    When I go back in to create a new print job, a dialogue box appears saying a current job is paused and would I like to add a new job to the queue. The problem here is the job I am attempting to delete is about 120 pages that I no longer need to print.
    I have a 13 inch MacBook Air with Yosemite 10.10.2. Any feedback will be appreciated.
    Richard

    A reset of the printing system will remove the unwanted print job. Note that this action will also remove all printers from the Printers & Scanners preference pane, but not the supporting drivers. So you will just need to add the printers again.

  • Officejet 6700 Premium - Pauses print job and won't resume

    I recently bought this printer and set it up. It was working perfectly. I unplugged it for a few days when I went out of town. And now, after powering it back on, it won't print anything. It immediately pauses the print job and won't resume.
    I checked to make sure it was still set up to my wireless and it says that it's connected. I'm printing from my MacBook.
    I have no idea what the problem could be. Not really a techie so please describe solutions in "laymen's terms".
    Thanks!

    Hi DeniseT,
    Welcome to the HP forums!
    You have an Officejet 6700 that is paused and won't allow you to resume on your Mac? This techie would be happy to help you get this working again
    What I'd like you to try DeniseT is to reset your printing system and then re-add the printer. This Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system document from Apple will explain step by step how to reset the printing system. Once you've added the printer back you should be able to print without issue.
    Hope to hear back from you soon with a success story

  • Print jobs won't automatically drop from the print queue after printing

    I just bought an Envy 7640.  When printing multiple documents, the first print job hangs in the queue after it prints, which prevents subsequent jobs from printing.  The first job continues to show a status of Printing after it prints the job.  I have to manually go into the queue and cancel the finished job before the next job in the queue will print. Having to clear the queue manually each time a print job finishes is not an acceptable fix to the problem.  How can I get the printer to automatically delete the print job after it prints like it's supposed to do?  

    Thank you for your reply.  The steps that you sent are for print jobs that you cannot delete from the queue.  I also found those instructions earlier, however, it doesn't apply to the problem I'm having with my printer. I don't have a problem deleting print jobs from the queue.  As my previous post stated, when I print multiple documents, the first document prints but it stays in the queue with a status of Printing.  Because it stays in the queue with the Printing status, it prevents the second and subsequent documents from printing. My problem is that I have to go to the queue after every single job prints and delete it from the queue to allow the next document to print.  It's ridiculous to have to delete every job from the queue after it prints.  The printer should automatically delete the job after it prints it, and then print the next job in the queue. How can I make the printer delete a job automatically after it prints it??  Can you please give me a resolution to this problem? Thank you.

  • No Printer Job List and No AutoQuit

    I have a Canon i70 printer. When I print a document the Canon i70 application automatically opens on my computer. However, when the job finishes, the application does not automatically quit as it used to in previous versions of OS X. The other problem is that be default the job list does not show up in the printer application. So, it's sort of the worst of both worlds. The printer application is open, but doesn't have any information there. To get the job list I have to open System Preferences and double-click on the printer, and then the job list opens in the Canon i70 application. Does anyone know how to change either of these settings (i.e. to get the job list to show by default and to get the printer application to quit automatically after a successful print)? They're both pretty irritating.
    Thanks.

    Sorry for the previous replies. Now that you have clarified your issue I can understand what you are experiencing. For the record, I have never had this symptom on any Mac and hence my confusion with what you were seeing.
    Whenever I print, the printer queue for that printer appears in the Dock, and if I click on it before it quits I see a pane that provides the ability to Delete, Hold and Pause a print job for that print queue.
    If you are not getting the same then I suggest you try resetting the printing system, which will require you to add the print queues again.
    To reset the printing system, open Print & Fax and move your mouse over the Printers list. Then hold down the Control button and click your mouse. When reset printing system appears, let go of the Control button and click the reset text. This will remove all printer queues but not the associated driver files. So, if you unplug the i70 USB and reconnect, the printer should automatically appear back in the Printers list.
