Print will not center

Lightroom 1.2
(because this was the last version that everything more or less worked)
OS X 10.4.11
(because this was the last version that everything more or less worked)
Epson photo R280
(because after spending a bunch on computers and software that don't really work all that well, this is the only printer I could afford)
Hello, I have had a good search around and can't find the solution to my troubles.
It seems that no matter what I do I can't get the print to center on a sheet.
It shows as centered on the preview.
I have the paper set to sheet feeder - borderless. (and I've tried it regular)
I have the cell size set to the dimensions I want.
The margins are set to equal measurements for the top/bottom.
And for the sides.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks a lot.
-Keith

That's likely the printer. try some trial runs moving the image cell to compensate until it is centered (try it in draft mode to save time and ink) and then save a preset.

  • Adobe Reader will not center the printable area on the page

    Hi there,
    I have posted a few times about this issue already but have still not gotten an answer so I'm trying again. Adobe Reader will not center PDF files on the page if the printable area is less than 8.5" X 11". I make sewing patterns for a living and have always drafted them on 7.5" X 10" artboards (printable areas)....the art boards are centered on the page when they are drafted. Up until a few months ago there has never been an issue for me or my customers to print the patterns in either landscape, portrait (depending on the particuar PDF's orientation) or autoportrait/landscape orientation. Then about 2 or so months ago I started getting complaints about the top left hand side of the page getting cut off. When I tried printing one of the PDF's myself that was drafted in landscape orientation, and I printed it in "landscape" orientation, the top left side of the pdf did indeed get cut off. When I printed in autoportrait/landscape orientation the pdf printed fine, and for many of my customers this seems to fix the problem. But for many of them it doesn't fix the problem and the pdf still prints with part of it getting cut off regardless of which box is checked for orientation. I've found that if I go to the "pages to print" box and click "other options" then select "current view" this often solves the problem...but then the user does not seem to be able to select which pages to print. This is becoming a major problem for my business (lots of complaints) and would really like to know if anyone has looked at this issue and if the problem will be solved anytime soon. It is not just me but many of my colleagues and 100's of customers. Help! Thank you:)

    Make sure you have the latest Adobe Reader installed for your OS.

    Did you try using Preview. If you control click on the PDF on your desktop you can use the "open with" option.

  • Printer will not work after update to Mavericks

    I have a macbook pro and an HP7280 printer connected wirelessly.  After upgrading to Mavericks the printer will not work.  The first time I used it the system upgraded automatically (I forget what it said but it just went ahead and did some upgrading)  When I clicked on something to print it did recognized the printer but just scrolled and scrolled and never printed.  So I deleted the printer and reset the system and then added the printer back on - same thing.   Any ideas??

    It means there is no issue with the driver you are using and with it working correctly on Mavericks. So you have a network issue with the printer queue you are using. Normally a reset of the printing system and re-adding the printer would be enough to get things working again. But since you have done this and your issue is not resolved, there must be some other gremlins in the system.
    With the HP connected to the network, if you know its IP address you can enter this as a URL into a web browser. This should result in you connecting to the internal web page of the HP. Does this work?

  • My wireless HP Deskjet 3050 printer will not print from web sites.

    My HP Deskjet 3050 J610 printer will not print from web sites - it prints ok from WORD, etc. I keep getting the error message: "An unknown error occurred while printing." This problem only arises with Firefox browser.
    The printer is connected wirelessly to a network and this occurs when I use a laptop on the network. It is also connected via cable to a desktop computer but there is no problem in printing from the desktop.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    That sounds as if you need to investigate to see if you were able to clear all of the paper that was causing the jam. 
    Best regards,

  • My hp c4599 printer will not connect to my wireless network

    My hp c4599 printer will not connect to my wireless network or show up on my computer during the installation even though it is usb connected. But it managed to create its own network where i can print wirelessly by selecting it sort of like bluetooth… I have installed different softwares from the hp website and looked at so many different forums but i cant find the answer. I have reset the printer and wireless network and god knows whatelse. I can also print fine through the usb cable, it just will not connect to my wireless network. I am going crazy P.S. once upon a time it was connected to my wireless network but i cant remember what happened.

  • HP C4795 printer will not print in firefox browser but will in IE

    I have an HP C4795 printer and HP windows 7 and the printer will not work using firefox. it works fine in IE. I had trouble with firefox crashing yesterday so i uninstalled and reinstalled and printer won't work. worked fine in firefox before my ordeal yesterday.

    I see you started another question thread - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/888892 - so I guess your problem isn't resolved.
    If it is trying to print to an XPS file, your printer isn't selected as the destination for print. You need to select you printer in the Printer - Name box. See the screenshot.

  • Hp Laserjet 1012 Printer will not print

    All of a sudden, my printer will not work. Maybe it has to do with the new Canon scanner I just bought and installed(?).
    Anyways, did the usual (deleted all printers, downloaded and installed updated driver, added printer (verified on System Profiler), rebooted both Mac and Printer but no go.
    Attempts to print then after 15 seconds or so "stops" in the queue.
    I'm stumped because I can get the printer to work on my other Mac.
    In advance, thanks for your input.

    I would take a reconditioned product over a new replacement any day.  The reconditioned product has been verified to have a problem, taken apart by a technician, verified the defective part, replaced defective part (which will never fail again) and put back together and tested more extensively than a new unit.  New unit... put together by an assembly person, press self test and ship it out.

  • My HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer will not recognize my wireless router passwrd

    My printer was working fine but when I turned it on today it wouldn't connect to my wireless router. I try inputing the correct password and the printer gives me this message......"the WPA security passphrase configured on your HP printer does not match your wireless router setting" .
    I have entered the password several times and I know what I have entered is correct

    Hi @Southglen,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I noticed that your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus printer will not recognize your wireless router password. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help!
    I would recommend to go through this guide, How to Find the WEP or WPA Key or Password for Your Wireless Network, just to double-check your wireless password, in case it might have changed.
    I would also suggest a hard reset, by going to this post How to perform a Hard Reset, by @Rich1.
    After those two steps, I would suggest a firmware update, Getting Printer Updates for HP Officejet Pro 8600 (N911), Officejet 6600 (H711) and Officejet 6700 P....
    Let's start with these steps, and we will go from there!

  • HP-2840 needs new drum (Q3964A) and I am told my printer will not work when I install a new drum

    My HP2840 laser jet All-InOne has been telling me for 6 months that I need a new drum. I was waiting until I saw an issue with my print quality (which I never had a problem) and now my printer will not work unless I replace the drum.
    A friend told me that even after installing a new OEM drum, that my printer will still not work unless I call HP and pay for them to tell me how to make it work.
    Is that true?
    I need help fast cause now my wife is really angry that I "broke" the printer!
    Thanks in advance!

    JJust had problem corrected due to frozen imac, now HP printer will not print.  Says it is not connected.  What do I do to fix it?

    To reset the printing system:
    Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
    Choose Print & Scan from the View menu.
    Hold down the Option key while clicking the "-" (Remove printer) button. If no printers are currently added, hold down the Control key while clicking in the box that appears above the "+" (Add printer) button, then choose Reset printing system… from the contextual menu.

  • My hp office jet printer will not scan a document wirelessly print works fine on wireless any thoughts on this problem

    my hp printer will not scan a document wirelessly the wireless print funtion works fine i have to plug the usb cable into the laptop to scan a document any thoughts on how to do this wirelessly thanks

    i have to plug the usb cable into the laptop to scan a document
    This is because HP has not provided network USB drivers to allow scanning when the all-in-one is connected to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme.
    HP has only provided drivers to allow printing when the all-in-one is connected to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme. To be fair, other manufacturers who offer all-in-one products do the same thing.
    If you need to scan documents, you will need to connect the all-in-one to the USB port on your computer....until HP offers full featured network USB drivers. Check with HP Support for possible progress in this regard.
    If your all-in-one happens to offer wireless connection options or wired Ethernet options to connect to your network, you should have full functionality that way.

  • Printer will not copy but will print from the computer

    Hp Photosmart D110 all in one printer--I am totally disgusted with this printer...have had it a few months.  It will only get about 160 economy pages per ink cartridge which is ridiculous.  So we bought an ink refill kit and just refilled and reinstalled the black ink cartridge.  it is printing from the computer just fine but the printer WILL NOT COPY.  When I use the tool box and check ink levels it just shows question marks on both ink cartridges.
          I spent 45 minutes on HP Chat Support and got no answers except that I need to use genuine HP Cartridges. They could not explain to me why the printer would print but not copy with refilled cartridge.
        Any help from any of you regarding the NOT copying and the ink cartridges.....thanks so much

    Did you ever get it to copy? I have the same problem

    Thank you for posting your list of installed Extensions. One of them might be intercepting the menu command. Since you have the Add-on Compatibility Reporter, it's possible that an older add-on that doesn't actually work well with Firefox 5 could be to blame. Could you try disabling the "HP Smart Web Printing" extension and see whether that makes any difference?
    Also, you can simulate a print button on a web site by pasting this to the location bar and pressing Enter. You also can save it as a bookmark for easier access (when scripts are saved as bookmarks, we call them bookmarklets). Hopefully you won't need it for long.
