Printer cannot print many fonts or pdf's

Hi
When using my Lexmark laser E322 many fonts that are installed in Fontbook will not print correctly when using Adobe InDesign and PDFs just disappear from the Print monitor after a few seconds. Is there a possible corrupted preference file? Or does this sound like a printer error?
Thanks
Enio

Several things come to mind.
Preferences. Look for a file that's similar to this:
com.lexmarklaser322.plist Navigate to find it:
MaciintoshHD/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Open the Preferences folder, locate that file and drag it to the Trash.
Also... the FontBook preference file: com.apple.fontbook.plist Same intructions.
Also, try reinstalling the drivers that came with your Lexmark printer. That alone can fix a myriad of problems.
I see you are runninng 10.4.2 You might consider updating to 10.4.9.
Run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. Disk Utility is located here:
Applications/Utilities
Which PDF software are you referring to? Preview (Mac) or Adobe Acrobat Reader???

Printer cannot print after disabling SNMP

I need to disable SNMP for network security reasons. After doing so from the web configuration page of my P2035N printer, network users cannot print to this printer. It shows as 'offline', even on the web page. We have tried restarting the printer, as well as the print spooler on the server. It is connected via TCP/IP, IPv4.

Working on the assumption that you had an older version of the Canon CAPT driver installed on this Mac before you installed 10.8, I suggest that you open Finder and trash the following files. Note that if you haven't done the reset that Greg has suggested, you will need to open Print & Scan and remove the current LBP6000 printer.
Mac HD > Library > Printers > Canon > CUPSCAPT (trash this entire folder)
Mac HD > Library > LaunchAgents > jp.co.canon.CUPSCAPT.BG.plist
Mac HD > Library > Caches > Canon > CUPSCAPT > CCPD > ccpd.conf
With the above files removed, restart your Mac and then run the CAPT v3.60 installer again. Then add the LBP6000 in Print & Scan and then see if you can print without error.

Cannon LBP6000 printer cannot print after installing os x 10.8.3

After installing os x 10.8.3, the lbp6000 cannot print. I have downloaded and installed the latest driver from cannon. It showed copies are ready to print. But there is no actual printout. The print job just sit in the print que. Any ideas?

No borderless printing; cannot print via imagebrowser...Please...help!

I can no longer print 4x5 borderless photos (or any photos) from imagebrowser to my i850 canon printer. I have version 6.0.2.38(7L) of Imagebrowser with Leopard installed on my Mac. I select the print option, and then it says to click on Page Setup for borderless printing. The only option I get there is 4x6 (with a border)??? There is no 4x6 borderless like I used to have with the old imagebrowser and system. I set up the print dialogue box to select the "best" picture (used to have a setting for high quality pictures???) and then I click on "Print" and nothing happens. It never goes to printer and I can't cancel or anything. I have to do a force quit. How do I just print a 4x6 borderless print using Imagebrowser on my Mac??????? Any help is greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!!!

I am not sure where to look for these drivers.
Both the Canon v4.8.3 and Gutenprint v5.1.3 are included with Leopard
I went to the Canon web site and downloaded the latest driver v4.8.3 and it put it where it needs to go but doesn't tell you where that is.
It would try to copy them to /Library/Printers/Canon/BJPrinter, but since the same files for this version would already there be, it might not do this unless the file being added are newer. It should also copy the package installer for the 4.8.3 to /Library/Receipts.
Anyway, when I went back into Imagebrowser I now have a much shorter list of options, plus do have the 4x6 borderless now. I click on Page Setup in Imagebrowser and select this, but when I go out of there and click on "Print" absolutely nothing happens. I still can't print from Imagebrowser. I use Quarkexpress and can print on plain paper fine so I know the printer works, but cannot print from within Imagebrowser for glossy prints. Any ideas what I may need to do?
Not really. I used v6.1 in my testing. Maybe your v6.0.x has a problem with 10.5. Also, if you upgraded from Tiger to Leopard and didn't do a clean install of ImageBrowser, then maybe this is causing the failed printing.
You mentioned you can print on plain paper from Quark. Can you print on plain paper from ImageBrowser?
My last suggestion would be to view the cups error log. With the i850 printer queue open, select Printer then Logs & History. This may give some clues as to why ImageBrowser is not working for you...

Cannot display Chinese font in PDF Report

I am using Oracle Report Server 11g currently. I have met a problem that the chinese font cannot be displayed in the PDF report which is generated by oracle report. Can anyone help ?

Hi...
You can achieve this in XML report.
As per metalink Note id ID 842856.1,
1. Copy the following font files from $FND_TOP/resource to the /lib/fonts directory (under OA_JRE_TOP).
ALBANYWT.ttf - "single-byte" characters only
ALBANWTJ.ttf - Unicode font with Japanese Han Ideographs
ALBANWTK.ttf - Unicode font with Korean Han Ideographs
ALBANWTS.ttf - Unicode font with Simplified Chinese Han Ideographs
ALBANWTT.ttf - Unicode font with Traditional Chinese Han Ideographs
2. Restart the Apache.

Adobe reader cannot extract embedded font after pdf sent via outlook

We have some pdf files that open fine in Adobe Reader 9.1.3. Once we send them via e-mail (we use Outlook 2003), they will not open properly with the error message: "Cannot extract the embedded font 'TWDWSP+TradeGothic-Light. Some characters may not display or print correctly." When we click OK, another error message appears: "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem." If the files are sent in a ZIP archive, they open correctly, but not if sent individually as PDFs. Can someone help?

It's one of the reasons that it's not recommended to send a PDF via email without Zipping it first. Either the senders or receivers email client may use encoding to make the ransfer faster which can wreck PDF's.
Best bet is to Zip (as you've seen) the file first or post it to a web space and email the link.

Cannot Extract Embedded Font in PDF Report Generated Using Crystal Reports XI

The issue is that sometimes the PDF reports generated by Crystal Report XI are not showing the fonts properly. Arial font is used in the Crystal report template(.rpt file) for field label and data elements. When the report is opened in Adobe Reader, it displays the message - "Cannot extract the embedded font 'AAAAAA+ArialBold'. some characters may not display or print correctly." Other PDF Readers like Foxit show blank spaces instead. I tried to change the font to Courier New, Times New Roman etc but still getting the same message.
The issue is consistent when the application is deployed in Windows server. When deployed in Unix server the issue happens very occasionally. The font files are available and installed in the UNIX box.
Please tell me why this error message is shown and also tell me how to get it fixed.

Hi Scot
Just replied to your email re. conf call.
In the meantime.
1st question.
    Some of our developers are creating the reports under crystal 2008, while some are 2011.
    Could this be a problem, when they are run by the SDK?
    Should we upgrade all our developers to crystal 2011?
The version of CR a report is created in should not matter at all. I am 100% certain this is not the issue.
2nd question
    When the report is run, to create the pdf... why would it actually embed the font on the pdf?
    if they weren't embedded.. wouldn't it just pull up the proper font, if the user's pc had that font on their
    pc?
    if it does the common fonts aren't embedded, we would just have to worry about the things like
    barcode 3 of 9
I can not answer this as that essentially is the way the product is designed. It may look like a limitation, but there are no work-arounds and I would not consider this to be a bug. Perhaps an enhancement, but a pretty faint hope there. And even if, enhancements take very, very low priority and take long, long time before implementation.
3rd question
    Would the fonts, just need to be installed on the server?   we've seen some indication, that they
    also need to be in a java sub-directory
The fonts must be on the server as that is where the report engine does it's work, then the report is streamed to the user's browser. E.g.; there is no work done on the browser. Also, the process must have rights to access the fonts.
One last point. You mention deployment to Linux. Linux is not supported. Please see: SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Microsoft Visual Studio - Supported Platforms
I suspect this is more an issue with CR not working with the framework for Linux.

HP LaserJet 4L printer cannot print from Windows 7

I currently bought a new computer and wanted to connect my old printer to my new computer. I bought a new USB cable cord in order to connect my old printer to my new computer. The model of my printer is HP LaserJet 4L. However, after I put everything together, I tried to print the test page. The computer popped up an error message saying that the document was unable to print. Can someone help me solve this problem?
Thanks,
Mala

From this document it appears you have to perform a Windows Update to get the driver.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

After software update for Lexmark printer, cannot print document as a file is missing. My iMac runs with Snow Leopard.

I have a Lexmark 3500 - 4500 series printer connected to my iMac via USB (as my iMac won't do the printing wirelessly. My iMac runs with Mac OS X, Snow Leopard, Version 10.6.8.
A few days ago, there were several software updates that I have installed as there was mention that they were for Mac OS X Lion.
Today, I tried to print a document, and it failed. The error message was: "Missing component: /Library/Printers/Lexmark/Drivers/.Resources/3500-4500 Series Color 2.lut".
I have re-installed the software from Lexmark without success.
Has anyone had a similar issue who can advise me, please?
Thank you.
Philippe

Have you tried installing the Lexmark software from the Apple site:
Lexmark Printer Drivers v2.4 for Mac OS X v10.6
You are running 10.6 which the above link is for, maybe Lion (10.7) doesn't need everything that 10.6 does. Try re-installing using the above link.

T-Mobile/Linksys WRTU54G router and Epson wireless NX515 Printer - cannot print

I have a WRTU54G router setup and working fine for wired and wireless internet connectvity; printing however only works from my wired PC. I am unable to print from from any of the wireless connected PCs to the wireless printer. The printer is setup for wireless printing only (no cable connected).
I had this setup working with no issues prior using an ATT router.
My guess is an issue with a security setting on the router itself. Any ideas? Thanks.

Are you able to go online wirelessly from the wireless computer...?
Go to the linksys GUI and check all the wireless settings on the router including the wireless security and try to connect the wireless printer again to the wireless network.

Cannot print PDF on HP Designjet T1500

We have a HP Designjet T1500 which is connected to a stand alone PC (Win7 OS). We normally copy files to the flash drives (USB sticks) and used it on the stand alone PC connected to the printer and print. We are doing this to avoid other users on the network to abuse the printer. Although the PC has Adobe PDF Reader, the printer cannot print documents in PDF.
Does anybody has any idea or have experienced the same?
Your response and help will be very much appreciated.
Cheers,
Magas

I don't understand your question...
You either print to PDF or print to a printer.

Cannot print text of icard

Hi,
I just finished my icard and would like to print it. The problem is, my mac seems to see only the first page of it. When I click on "preview", the text on page 2 has completely disappeared - logically, the printer cannot print it either. Is there anybody who can help?
ibook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

difty:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try using another font and print to PDF to see if the text comes thru. Also delete the iPhoto cache folder from your User/Library/Caches folder.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
