Printer Dialog Box with No. of copies & Print Range.

I am trying to print a report(oracle) from a form (using a custom PRINT button) and wanted the printer dialog box to appear, for which I used the "WIN_API_DIALOG.SELECT_PRINTER(prtname, port, true)" API in the "When button pressed trigger".
But this API only takes care of a printer change, my issue here is how do I capture the changes pertaining to Orientation, Number of Copies, Print range etc. I know there is the "Properties - Advanced" option in the printer dialog box but changing values there doesn't help, as I had already mentioned the API passes only printer name.
So, if any one has faced a similar issue and has a solution,
PLEASE RESPOND IMMEDIATELY !!!
Thanks

Unfortunatley there is no way to give Forms that information. The printer dialog in D2kwutil is only designed to get the printer name / port, none of the other information. Even it it could Forms does not expose an API to effect the PRINT; built-in.

Opening print dialog box with "Selection" printing enabled

Hi all,
I have a JTable in which I wan to print only selected rows. When I open the Print dialog box using printDialog() method of PrinterJob, the dialog opens with "Selection" option disabled.
How can I enable this option ?
How can I print my selection using the standard Print Dialog ?

This I know.
Let me refrase my question:
I have a table with selected cells (Rows Cols
whatever ...) I wish to open the print dialog box
with Selection radio button enabled, such that when I
will check it and click print, the selected table
cell get printed.This I had understood.
Let me refrase my reply:
If you simply print a new table containing the selected data
then you don't need to have the Selection radio button enabled
in the print dialog box.

Super slow printing dialog box with 10.6?

When I click on print it now takes almost a minute to get the printing dialog box up - Any suggestions? I deleted and re-installed newest drivers. I have a Xerox 8560

No answer here, just thought I'd say you're not alone. I was cruising the forum to find an answer for the same issue. I upgraded our G4 based mini's running 10.4 to the newest Intel Mini with 10.6. Now print jobs that finish in seconds on the old machines take 5 - 6 minutes. I've loaded the most recent drivers from Xerox, but no change. I have a support call in to Xerox and will post back if they can fix this.

Adobe X no print dialog box and program closes when printing

Have one user who started encountering this problem today:
Opens up PDF
Clicks on the Print icon (or File - Print)
The Print Dialog box never appears
Adobe 10.1.1 program then immediately closes - nothing in the event log
Able to get the PDF to print only if right clicking on the file and selecting Print (but don't get to select any Printing options)
Have tried selecting a different printer with the same results
Have uninstalled and reinstalled the program
Any help is appreciated

I have a similar problem with the the same printer. Excel works fine until you ask to print preview, this takes about a minute to appear, and about another minute if you ask it to print too. Once you've printed and are back in Excel anything you try to do now has a delay. I've tried then changing the printer i want to use to a networked one which makes Excel return to it's normal self.
I've also tried sharing this printer to make sure it wasn't the PC but it is the same on any I've tried.

Pages button in printer dialog box is deactivating while taking print ?

Hello exports,
while taking print abap reports (developed using smartforms) pages buttoon (from- to) in printer dialog box
is by default is deactivating .How to activate this button ? who will do this one (Abaper or basis guy).
pls help me in this.

Hi,
So, as you see a field "from ... to ...", I think you are talking about the "background print parameters" dialog (this is not the smart forms print dialog, which contains field "page selection").
I don't understand. "Pages from ... to ..." is always displayed, and the user can enter them manually. Do you want to enter pages programmatically?
What is your code or the steps to display this dialog? Is it fully standard or do you use GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS programmatically?

How can i get rid of the print dialog box when using api to print an html file

i am using the systemshell.vi provided by labview the VI is working fine but it will open a dialog box for printer selection and properties. i would like to hide that dialog box and have it print to the default printer with the default properties

ShellExec is part of lvwutil and merely calls a function in Shell32.dll. There is nothing about the function call that controls the display of the printer dialog. I think that what shell32.dll does when it prints (just like right clicking on the file) is print the file according to what is defined about that file type in Windows Folder Options. On my Win2K system, the print application is defined as "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\msohtmed.exe" /p %1. If I remove the /p, then Word starts up and in order to print, I get a printer dialog when choosing Print from the File menu. So it seems like the printer dialog is entirely dependant on the application that does the printing. I get no dialog when I use the VI to print a .txt file. I
nstead of using shell32, you might want to try some ActiveX method or property of an application like Internet Explorer that can open and print an html file.

[JS][CS3] Print DIalog Box with ESCAPE

I am using document.print(true) in my script.
Is there a way to catch if the user pressed "CANCEL"? So I can keep track of how many prints were "skipped"
Thank you, Alex.

Just a quick illustration of how useful APID is:
My wife still uses CS2 at work. We have a Riso digital duplicator which
we use for printing booklets, invitations, etc. When printing from
InDesign to the Riso machine, color management must be off or the blacks
get printed as dark gray (about 95% line screen). Well, I tried to help
out by printing a booklet, and like usual, I messed up and forgot to
turn off color management. (I'm really good at messing things up!) ;)
I decided to put an end to this problem, and create a solution which
would always cause InDesign to send to this printer (only) with color
management turned off. It took me a total of maybe 15 minutes...
// DontManageColorForRiso.jsx
// This script should be in the same folder as the document
DontManageColorForRisoSourceCS4.indd
// It is automatically called by the DontManageColorForRisoController
page item.
//events: docPrintConfigured,docPrinted
// Header - matches anonymous function trailer at bottom
(function(thePlugin)
main();
function main(){
var theEventCode = thePlugin.eventCode;
var doc = GetDocFromPageItem(thePlugin);
switch(theEventCode){
case "docPrintConfigured":TurnOffColorManagement(doc);break;
case
"docPrinted":app.colorSettings.enableColorManagement=true;break;
function TurnOffColorManagement(doc){
var printer = doc.printPreferences.printer;
if(printer.constructor.name!="String"){return}
printer=printer.toLowerCase();
if(printer.match(/riso/)){
app.colorSettings.enableColorManagement=false;
function GetDocFromPageItem (pageItem){
var guid = app.callExtension(0x90B6C,10014,pageItem);
return app.callExtension(0x90B6C,10009,guid);
// Trailer - matches anonymous function header at top
)(theItem);

How to set print dialog box to sync with applications

Dear all
I am using different applications, such as photoshop, lightroom, etc. All these applications have their propper print dialog box with enhanced settings.
BUT
after hitting the print button, my computer takes me always to the mac print dialog box, where again I can set different things: I can set paper quality, paper format, the colors...
to me it seems that the settings I have chosen in the application print dialog box are getting erased by this second set of (OS X) print-settings.
WHY DO I NEED TO GO THROUGH TWO PRINT DIALOG BOXES?
Can I omit the OS X print dialog?
Or am I missing something?
many thanks for your help,
Hynek

Thank you for this reply.
I will work around it with presets.
but just to understand this: *which dialog box is the one setting the printer* (when for example using photoshop)? is it the first dialog box, i.e. photoshop print dialog box - or is it the osX print dialog box?
if it is the second, I can skip the photoshop-one... ?
or do I need to experiment with a combination of both?
greetings,
Hynek
p.s. I know, it is a rather late reply. But we became parents 7 months ago, and time at the moment just flies by...

Can anyone tell about the java code that can be used to generate a print dialog box with "Scale to paper size" option.

Print Dialog Box for Addon is not showing in Terminal Server

Dear All,
I have created a addon for Automatic Sales Invoice printing that prints the crystal report directly to the printer bu opening a
print dialog box for printer selection through SDK code.
The Same addon works fine on the server with print dialog box being showing through SDK code.
But while running on Terminal Server , print dialog box is not showing any printer though printers are redirected to that
terminal server.I am not getting whether the problem is in my addon or in the terminal server printer settings.
Please suggest as i need to know the reason urgently.
Thanks
Amit

is their any way to check that why the printers are not showing in print dialog box.

Printer dialog box does not appear in Photoshop CS.5

I use Photoshop CS.5.1 with a Macbook 2013 using version 10.9.5. The printer works perfectly with all other applications but in Photoshop no printer dialog box comes up and the print job does not appear in the printers queue. Anyone the same issues?

First, try nuking (deleting them and letting the application create new ones) your Photoshop preferences:
To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
Note: If this process doesn't work for you while you're using a wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard, attach a wired keyboard and retry.
Important: If you re-create the preferences by deleting the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings file, make sure that you only delete that file. If you delete the entire settings folder, you also delete any unsaved actions or presets.
Reinstalling Photoshop does not remove the preferences file. Before reinstalling Photoshop, re-create your preferences.
NEW Video! Julieanne Kost created a video that takes you through two ways of resetting your Photoshop preferences. The manual preference file removal method is between 0:00 - 5:05. The keyboard shortcut method is between 5:05 - 8:18. The video is located here.
Mac OS
Important: Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If you require access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.

Corrupt Print Dialog box

I recently upgraded Reader to XI and am now getting this corrupt Print Dialog box when I try to print a pdf from within IE10. Has anyone ever seen anything like this? Windows 8, IE10, Reader XI

I have 600 users at my company that get the garbled print dialog box with Adobe 9 and IE 11. I used Group Policy to turn on Protected Mode for the Internet and Intranet and now the print dialog box works. Here is where you can find the setting on local group policy (for testing if you are in corporate environment).
Computer Configuration->Administrative Templates-->Windows Components->Internet Explorer->Internet Control Panel->Security Page. You will then go to Internet Zone or Intranet Zone depending on your needs and then Enable "Turn On Protected Mode". Run a gpupdate from command prompt. Hope this helps.

Print Dialog Box using jdk1.4

Is there a way to bring up print dialog box in jdk1.4. I am using the new api( javax.print.* ) for printing. But dont know how to get an interface to the Dialog Box.
thx

Our printing functions (PrintCtrl, PrintPanel, etc.) will bring up the print dialog if you select to show it in the function call. If you weren't using our print function, you can bring up the Windows print dialog box with the Windows SDK function PrintDlg. Consult SDK documentation for help with this function.
