Printer dialog fine in english, busted in swedish...

Ok, this is very annoying, and I'd appreciate any help I can on this one.
Coming from an all-Windows corporation, with only me having minor experience with OS X, I'm a bit stumped as to how to solve this. The thing is, our business is digital printing, and although I can stumble along as it is, it's annoying enough to warrant some time spent on finding a solution. Whether this forum is the right place to go, I don't know yet.
At our office, we have an HP Color Laserjet 9500hdn. Nothing really fancy there, has worked for years and years with no problems via Windows. This spring however, we acquired a Mac Pro to replace an ageing XP Pro machine.
At first, there was some problems with getting the printer to stay connected properly, it timed out for some reason, and with big print jobs, we could not have it that way. This was with the original driver included with 10.5. I looked for updated drivers on HP's site, and found both a firmware and drivers for the printer. All said and done, the firmware was installed along with the HP driver.
Big mistake I guess. Should've gone with only the firmware to start with, that might actually have sufficed. But the driver was installed as well, and here we are now.
What is the actual problem then? Well, the printer now works as it is supposed to, that is all fine and dandy. However, the printer dialog windows are busted when they are displayed in Swedish. They work fine in their English counterparts (as portrayed by the following screenshots from the English version of Firefox alongside the Swedish version of InDesign).

This behaviour is duplicated on all apps. Works fine in Pages (English version) for example, while the Swedish version of Photoshop displays it incorrectly.
Now, what can be done about this? I have a few alternatives:
1. Somehow force ALL printer dialogs to display in English. Is this at all possible?
2. Somehow remove the HP driver (there is no uninstall utility that I have found) and reinstate the original driver. How to do this is beyond me.
I've tried reinstalling the printer driver, I have tried removing and installing the printer, but nothing helps. It still works in English, but displays incorrectly in Swedish.
Very annoying, to be honest, and any help here is appreciated. I'm not afraid to go into the terminal and play if needed, just as long as you tell me what to do
Here are the versions and links to HP's drivers/firmware I've installed:

Problem solved! Short recipe: Uninstall everything HP, then reinstall HP printer drivers from Mac OS X 10.5 DVD.
Instructions from HPs hardware support person (complete with comments from support person 2):
Unplug the printer.
Uninstall the printer - He says he does not have HP uninstaller under Go and Applications. He didn't have HP Laserjet either
Uninstall any HP printer SW that has been installed.
Remove the following files (if available)
HD/Library/Printers/hp/laserjet/P2015series (Not sure of the name)
HD/Library/Receipts/hp Laserjet P2015.pkg (Not sure of the name here either) - Cust found this (he thinks)
HD/Library/Frameworks/libZJBIG.dylib (This file may not even exist but if it does: remove it) - He also found this and removed it
Empty the recycle bin!
Insert Mac OS Leopard installation CD, choose click Optional Installs - Seems like cust hasn't tried that at all before so he will do that now and call back
I really didn't think they would be able to find a solution this fast. Hats off for HP!

  • Adobe PS CS3 has major flaws in Print Dialog. Beware!

    System Specs:
    OSX Leopard 10.5.2
    MacPro 3.2ghz with 32GB of ram 1.5GB Video
    Epson 11880 Printer
    Samsung XL20 LED monitors calibrated using EyeOne Pro 6500k 2.2 and 120c/d
    I have been trying to build a custom profile for my new Epson 11880. However, my results have been unsuccessful. All my prints came out super dark. The color is all off except for the grey scale.
    After talking to Epson for hours I found out that the new Beta driver for the printers have a problem, so rolled back to v3.89. This fixed all printer problems. So printer is fine now. This also applies to the Epson 3800.
    Spoke to Apple about their color management and Leopard issues? No fault found on the OS.
    Ran a test using preview, iPhoto, EyeOneMatch, Photoshop CS, and CS3. I couldn't find my CS2 disk so I didn't get a chance to test that. preview, iPhoto, CS, and EyeOneMatch all came out with same results when printing a 9.18 target without PCM. However, CS3 printed the image dark and off color with the exact same settings. Problem has been persistent and I would like to conclude that CS3 needs to fix this bug in their software. It is ridiculous to be printing using another software because CS3 can't do a simple task as print.

    viewing conditions are fine.
    I have the whole room outfitted with GTI D50 lights. What can I say I am anal. No matter where you stand the light will hit 5000k. I change the bulbs out every 1500 hours although they tell me I can wait until 2000 hours.
    My monitor is also calibrated properly. I am using the Samsung XL20 and XL30 monitors, which surpass the Eizo or any other LCD's on the market. I've owned the Eizo, NEC, Artisan, and any other monitors you can name. I also made sure my Spectrometer is fine and it is.
    When printing targets with the setting set to NO Color Management in Photoshop it should yield the same results as the other applications. The only thing you are technically utilizing then is the printer driver and dialog box. Yes the printer dialog is always same and set properly also. PCM is set to no color management. I've tested this with other applications and it is CS3 that is giving me all the problems.

  • Print dialog not displaying when trying to print PDF document

    Hello All,
    I am using below code to print a pdf file. And the same code working fine when i am using with simple java class. and if i am using the same code with my jsf backing bean action method it was not working.

    what's the problem
    Please help me.
    Thanks In advance,

    Hi Kavi,
    just have a look into the driver-program. I'm pretty sure someone has programmed a loop.
    IF it is a NAST-driver program, check if your specific user has a printer SU03. That sounds a lot like this mistake

  • Printing to Fine Art "Museum Etching" Error

    Having an issue with printing Fine Art "Museum Etching" paper on my Canon Pixma9000 printer. This wasn't an issue until switching to a Mac, using Adobe Illustrator CS4. I recently purchased Canon's Fine Art Museum Etching paper and when selecting that media type within Illustrator CS4, and printing, I get this error message.
    "Error Number : 88 The media type and paper size are not set correctly.  Cancel printing, correct the settings, and print again. If you selected Fine Art "Museum Etching" as the media type, you need to set the paper size appropriate to the art paper."
    I have tried every different type of A3+ (13x19) paper sizes from the dropdown in the Illustrator CS4 print dialog panel, and get the same error every time. Any help in figuring out the cause would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Josh

    I was under the impression that adobe color printing utility is a completely different application from PS. I am limited by the facilities ACPU provides. I cannot change the feed from the current "sheet feeder" to "manual rear feed." Fine art paper only works with the matte black ink which my printer is currently set to. I should point out that the greyed out issue does not happen in the PS print set-up. I should also mention that all other choices of media are available in ACPU. It is just the "fine art" section that is not, which does suggest it is something to do with the photo/matte black inks. However, as mentioned, my 3880 is set to matte black.
    I think this is a bit of a curly one! I noticed that Epson were very quick to pass the problem on. I gather there is another way to print colour targets, used before the advent of ACPU. Image Science, the Australia Company doing my custom profiles will no doubt steer me in the right direction.

  • 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.

  • 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

    Hello Edward,
    Thanks for your reply .
    But the problem is that while running on normal server the print dialog box appear with the printer name in my addon for printer selection .
    But while using terminal server , the print dialog box is not getting any printer in the dialog box .That's the major concern for me
    is their any way to check that why the printers are not showing in print dialog box.
    Thanks ,

  • 4 "Pages per Sheet" in Printer dialog no longer works

    I frequently print my documents to PDF 4 pages to a sheet, using the Save As PDF option in the Printer dialog (i.e., I don't have Acrobat installed). The last time I did this about 2 weeks ago, it worked fine. Today, it ignores my settings of 4 pages to a sheet and prints every page as a separate "sheet" in the PDF. The only thing I know of that has changed over the past two weeks is the update to 10.5.7. How do I fix this so I can print 4 pages to a sheet again?
    Thank you.

    My problem is solved. I spent a lot of time on the phone with Apple support. When they mentioned I might need a printer driver update to keep up with the OS update, I noticed that I no longer had any printer installed at all. I don't know how that happened, but I will assume it had to do with the OS update.
    I plugged in a printer, added its driver (which I later noticed caused me to have a new one, plus the original one reappeared), disconnected the printer (I don't want hard copy), and now it works perfectly as it did before. I get 4 pages per sheet like I should.
    Don't ask me why the existence of a printer should matter when I am only creating a PDF. But that is what happened.
    Thank you for spending time working to resolve.

  • Print dialog crashes when selecting shared printer

    I have an HP laserjet 1012 installed on a G4 Mac Mini, which shares that printer with the rest of the network. Printing to it from the other G4 mini in the house works fine.
    BUT
    When I try to select it to print to in the print dialog on my macbook, the print dialog and printing application crash. This happens 100% of the time with firefox (actually deer park universal binary) and preview, although I have occasionally been able to print successfully from word and camino.
    Both machines are updated with 10.4.6.
    Thanks for any help,

    Macbook Pro and G4 mini Mac OS X (10.4.6)

    Well, I finally got a chance to look at this problem again.
    Sure enough, the g4 mini (that the printer is attached to) has driver 1.4.5 and the macbook pro has 2.0. hp's website doesn't have a more current driver (it just tells you it's included with current OS X releases), but I stuck the macbook pro's install CD into the mini, ran the "install additional software" and installed the hp printer drivers from that disk.
    Now the mini can't print to the printer itself. It says it's trying, and then the printer queue just displays "jobs stopped."
    Any ideas how to fix it?

  • KB2909210 on Server 2008 R2 breaks my intranet sites and print dialog box

    Let's try this again.  I have been asking the following question of Microsoft and every time I do, I have only been told to try another forum.
    I have several intranet sites that my users use for various data entry and querying purposes.  I installed Internet Explorer 10 onto my 2008 R2 Terminal Server over this past weekend (10/18/2014) which also installed the Security Update KB2909210
    and rebooted the server.  On Monday morning (10/20/2014), when my terminal users logged into the sites, the sites began malfunctioning.  All the dropdown arrows turned into question marks.  Some fields which normally have a small "x"
    on the right-hand side used to erase the data entered in the text field were also displaying as question marks.  The objects still functioned but it was disconcerting to my users.  The update also slowed down these same intranet sites to where it
    began interfering with productivity.  I activated Compatibility View for all intranet sites, but it did not resolve the problem.
    I also found that when my terminal users tried to print a pdf document from the intranet sites, the print dialog box was jumbled and no fields were pre-populated with data like they always are when printing.  I updated to the latest Adobe Reader, but
    the print dialog box remained jumbled. 
    All of my users with stand-alone PCs have IE 10 installed and the intranet sites work fine.  The sites display properly and process quickly, and the print dialog box is not jumbled.  It is only my terminal users who log in from a thin client
    to their profiles on the server and use the IE version installed on the server who have the problem with IE10.  The KB2909210 Update is not installed on, and does not come up as, an update for any of my stand-alone Windows 7 PCs.
    I uninstalled IE 10 from my server, but since this was one of my production servers, I could not restart it until after the plant was shut down for the evening forcing my users to suffer with the slowness for the day.  This morning (10/21/2014) the
    intranet sites are working fine through IE 9.  I also had to revert back to Adobe Reader v9.5 as the v11 (and v10) print dialog box does not display properly in IE 9.
    I do not want to stay on IE 9 on my server as IE9 gets more un-secure by the day and we've found IE 11, on any of our machines, to be too buggy.
    How can I install IE 10 with its security updates and prevent it from breaking my intranet sites and print dialog box?  What is so different about Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 that IE 10 causes this corruption of intranet sites and the print dialog
    box on the Server but not on the Win 7 machines?
    The bulletin here:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/ms14-011
    is useless for determining why it breaks my intranet sites. Nor does it explain why the update destroys the print dialog box.

    Hi,
    In my opinion, it's hard to say your problem caused by KB2909210. Have you tried to uninstall this update for test if your intrant site's problem resolved?
    If your problem truthfuly caused by this updates, you can choose to hid the update as a workaround method.

  • Print Dialog Box Won't Open in InDesign CS5.5 on PC

    Worked fine yesterday and today I can't get the print dialog box to open by either the print button or ctrl-P.  Have tried restarting the program and restarting the computer with no resolution.  The rest of the program works fine.

    I was unable to find the SavedData file.  I am running Windows 7 and there seems to be two files there /Roaming/Adobe/InDesign and /Roaming/Adobe/AdobeInDesing5.5 and neither one has a clear file name "InDesign SavedData" for me to remove.  I think I found the "InDesign Debaults" under the /Roaming/Adobe/InDesign/version7.5/en_US/InDesignDefaults.  Is that one it?

  • Photoshop CS5 crashes when selecting print settings in print dialog box

    I work on a Mac Pro desktop with OS 10.6.4. Photoshop CS5 crashes every time I try to select "print settings" in the print dialog box. I work in a large office and our networked color printer is a Konica Minolta bizhub C451. In fact, if I hit "print" it will crash whether or not I hit "print settings" first. In CS4, there was a separate menu item that allowed you to change printer settings before going into the print dialog box. That choice is gone now, you have to select it through the print dialog box.
    This is the only way I can print out color proofs for my clients. Unfortunately, I do not have administrator rights to any printer (our office has about 100 people, only IT staff can fiddle with that). What can I do to get this solved?

    I think I have fixed it, though I'm not sure why this worked.
    System Preferences>Print & Fax. Selected the Konica Minolta printer (the B/W printer was working fine). Changed the name. Still didn't fix it. Went back selected my newly named Konica Minolta then "Open Print Queue" (like Dave said)>print settings. Change the driver to "Generic Postscript printer." I could print, but only on letter-size paper, no other options available (need tabloid). Went back to system preferences>print & fax>Konica Minolta2>open print queue>drivers then I reselected the updated printer drivers--the same one that hasn't been working.
    Now, it works.
    Thanks all for the helpful advice!

  • Photoshop cc print dialog box image dark

    I'm on a MacBook Pro running Mt. Lion with PS CC, an Eizo monitor, printing with an Epson 3880, calibrated and profiled with a ColorMunki. When I preview an image to print, the image is darker in preview, and the color is much different than the actual image. When I print with the proper paper profile, (photoshop manages color and the space is Adobe 1998) it prints looking like the preview image rather tha the one on the monitor. I also run Snow Leopard on a partition with CS6, and the above does not happen, everything works fine. A photog friend of mine with a similar setup is experiencing the same problem since upgrading to Mt. Loin. Another graphic designer friend is running Mavericks and is has the same problem. I have another photog friend in Nashville who is having THE SAME PROBLEM!! Does anyone know what the heck is going on? I'm the only one who kept Snow Leopard so I can still print, which I do on almost a daily basis. What broke what? Is it a bug with PS CC, or did something in MT. Lion break? This is very frustrating for all of us and I find it totally unacceptable.
    If anyone has a clue and can help, we would be eternally greatfull.
    Thanks,
    Greg Nikas

    Thanks for the tip on inserting photos. I'm new here, won't post a link in the future.
    I'll try to simplify my issue;
    1. In CS6 in Snow Leopard, the original/source image looks just like the image in the print dialog box and prints beautifuly. See images below.
    Original image.
    Print dialog box image.
    2. In PS CC and CS6 in Mt. Lion, the original/source image is redder and more saturated than the image in the print dialog box, but the print looks like the the image in the print dialog box. The image in the print dialog box looks like the original/source image in CS6 in Snow Leopard! See images below.
    Original image.
    Print dialog box image.
    3. The issue seems to be with how the original/source image in PS CC and CS6 renders in Mt. Lion. As I said in my intial post, I have three friends who are having the same problem and none of us can figure it out, and I'm the only one who kept Snow Leopard.
    4. I'm on a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard and Mt. Lion on a partitioned disk.
    5. I have an Eizo CG222W monitor, which is calibrated with an x-rite ColorMunki. Each OS has it's own calibration profile.
    6. I print on an Epson 3880 using the latest driver, and all papers have thier own profile and look the same when printed from either OS. 
    7. All settings in PS CC, CS6 and Bridge are identical in both OS's.
    I hope this is stated more clearly.
