Printer List (Default) is empty

When trying to add a new printer the default printer list comes up empty. I have not deleted any drivers, they are all still in /Library/Printers. I have tried reinstalling the drivers from the install disk, and repairing disk permissions, to no avail. Can anyone help?

With the Print & Fax window open, point your mouse to the empty printer list then hold down Control and then click your mouse. The 'Reset printing system' dialog should appear. Select this and then restart your Mac. Now once restarted, open Print & Fax again and select to add. Select the printer from the default view or enter your network details and then see if the Print using menu has any models listed.

Order of all day events • printing list view without empty days

I have only just started to use iCal in a work context. I need to programme over 500 events in several different locations (probably up to 10 locations on one day). I have divided these locations into five regions, and have made a calendar for each region.
Times are not important - just the dates, so I have been entering these events as all day events. What I would like to be able to do is ensure that in the month view (and particularly the print out) that the events I put in are always ordered in the same order that I have set up the calendars in the sidebar (I would also like more than 4 events displayed per day in the month view, but that's another matter!). I have been looking on these discussion boards and elsewhere on the internet and this appears to be a feature that many users would like implemented.
I would also then like to be able to print out separate list views for each region (calendar), but missing out the empty days. This also seems to be a feature that is wished for by many users, and has been requested for some time.
Any news on whether such changes will be made? Come on Apple, I mostly love your hardware and software, but there are quite a few of these little functionality issues scattered around the place.

In short, no - there is nothing you can do to determine the the display order of a series of all-day events in iCal. While the appear to generally be listed either in the order in which they were created or in the order in which your calendars appear in the left sidebar, even this is not always the case.

Default printer list

I want to pass the default client printer from my forms to reports (10g). Webutil does not have this functionality. Oracle provided me with the java code to do this but being a pl/sql programmer I will have to figure out how to create the bean and implement it in the form which I can do. Since I need this asap I'm thinking someone has done this before. Can anyone help me out?
Code requires JDK 1.4
import javax.print.PrintService;
import javax.print.PrintServiceLookup;
public class ListPrinters {
public static String getlist() {
/** list the printers Java can see **/
PrintService[] service=PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(null,null); //list of printer
s
/**print out list*/
String PrinterList="";
int count=service.length;
for(int i=0;i<count;i++)
//System.out.println(service.getName());
PrinterList = PrinterList + service[i].getName() + "\n";
return(PrinterList);
public static String getdefault() {
/** Find the default printer **/
PrintService service = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService(); //default printer
return (service.getName() );
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
System.out.println("List of printers : \n" + ListPrinters.getlist());
System.out.println("---");
System.out.println("Default printer : \n" + ListPrinters.getdefault());
This code can be included in a bean in order to be executed on the Client PC.
Of course, it would be necessary to use the SUN Java Plugin for the Forms Application as theses API are available only
since JDK 1.4

MacBook Pro not recognising printer and printer list empty

my MacBook Pro isn't recognising my printer. This happened before Yosemite update. I looked in the printer list and my printer was the only one there. On advice I deleted it and tried to re add it. There are no printers in the list to click on. I have a canon MP280. I upgraded to Yosemite and still no luck.
i Also wanted to ask if my printer can be attached to a BT home hub.
Thanks in advance

The installed printer doesn't appear in the printer list in Firefox. How to print then?

I reinstalled firefox resently and can't print anymore (print to PDF usually).
When I ctrl P, the printer list is empty. So I can't print.
When using another software (or other browser) I have the printer list.
I have tried to reset the printer setting as per the explanation on firefox help, but it doesn't change anything.
Could anyone help me? Thanks for your time.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Can't Find printer in printer list

I'm using Adobe Reader 10.1.4 and can't get it to see the laser printer on the network. Previous versions worked OK and Word sees it without a problem. When I try to print a document the print screen shows firstly the default printer which is an inkjet connected via USB and when I click the drop-down all the printers are there except the laser on the network which I want to use.
The printer has been deleted and re-installed several times, is shown on the printer list in the Control panel as being “ready” and works fine with other packages such as Word. I have also deleted and downloaded Acrobat several times restarting the PC in between but still it can’t find that particular printer.
If I take the file to another PC connected to the network it sees the prjnter and prints without a problem.
I have heard that it is a known problem and that Acrobat has a fix. Is this right?
If not, could you suggest how it can be fixed without repeating the above which we have done many times without success.
Regards,

I just ran into this exact problem. In my case, it isn't even a network printer - just a newly installed USB connected printer. The old printer was uninstalled, and Reader still shows it on its list. The new printer is installed and doesn't show up on the list. Other utilties print to it just fine as well. The printer just doesn't show up on Reader's printer list. I installed Acrobat and had the same issue.
Find a solution yet? Thanks.

Print List Processing Report to PDF

hi all,
i've read many forums about convert info into PDF. but i'm very new to understand those forums.
In case I want to print list processing report as PDF (not hard copy thru printer). First, user types the data on the screen then click on 'Execute' button, then the system shows the result on screen. After that user asks system for print the screen on menu bar by List=>Print.
So please advise me how to get the spool id, then export as pdf. As my opinion, i may use CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF and GUI_DOWNLOAD. But where is the place I should put the methods on?
Thanks in advance.

Print List Archiving

hi,
When i see job log for print list link, i am getting messgae as
Print list size exceeds 2 GB limit in spool system.
How to reduce the size of print list.

Hi Soyab,
The note does exist:
Summary
Symptom Before you use RSBCS_REORG: After you implement this note, you must also implement Note 1003894 (RSBCS_REORG: Corrections).
You need to reorganize the data relevant to the sending of documents or the use of SAPoffice/Business Workplace.
Send requests, which are displayed using transaction SOST, are no longer required and should be deleted.
The related tables (SOOD, SOOS, SOC3, SOFFCONT1, BCST_SR, BCST_CAM and so on) are increasing over time. Part of the data is not required and should be deleted.
Other terms
Reorganization, SBWP, SOST, send request, RSBCS_REORG
Reason and Prerequisites
You could do the reorganization previously using the RSCBCSRE03 report. Depending on the volume of data and release level, you must also start the RSSORE00 report. These reports do not perform this task, however, because they
have too few selection criteria
release dependent references mutually and therefore, may need to be started several times in turn to delete all data.
issue too little information relating to deleted and non-deleted data.
This note is valid for releases as of Release SAP_BASIS 620. Note 922565 is valid for Release SAP_BASIS 4.6C.
Solution
This note includes a new report RSBCS_REORG, which includes all of the functions of RSBCSRE03 (and those of the reports RSBCSRE00, RSBCSRE01, RSBCSRE02 that are called) as well as those of report RSSORE00. All of these reports have become obsolete due to report RSBCS_REORG, and should no longer be used. Reports RSSORE01 and RSSORE02 are also obsolete.
Due to the very extensive corrections, we recommend that you import the relevant Support Package to use the report.
You can also implement the corrections using Note Assistant 2.0, that is, for SAP_BASIS 620 as of SAPKB62055, and for SAP_BASIS 640 as of SAPKB64013, as well as for higher release levels. This new solution is not provided for lower Support Package levels, for which reports RSBCSRE03 und RSSORE00 must still be used. The reason for this is that you must create several new classes that will be used by RSBCS_REORG. Therefore, it is also not sufficient to create the report manually.
You are also restricted when you use the report with Note Assistant due to missing texts that should have been translated (several texts are only available in English).
For more information about the use of the report and reorganization in the Business Communication Services area, see the related notes.
Read this information carefully, because deleted data cannot be restored!
Report RSBCS_REORG
The report RSBCS_REORG always assumes that a document is to be deleted, since send requests can only be deleted if the related document is deletable.
The report reads all the main documents that fulfill the selection criteria, and checks if these and possibly related send requests can be deleted. If the checks show that no uses exist, all related data will be deleted. In the output of the report, the number of selected and deleted (and to be deleted) documents are output.
The setting options in the selection screen are described below.
Reorganization mode
      Here you can set which documents are to be reorganized: Documents for which send requests exist, or documents for which no send requests exist. Both options are selected by default, which corresponds to the behavior of the report RSBCSRE03 as of Release SAP_BASIS 640. We recommend this setting because it is the best setting for selecting the data. If only documents without send requests are to be reorganized, this corresponds to the behavior of report RSSORE00. If none of the fields are selected, nothing is deleted.
Selection period
          o Specify creation date
            If this field is selected, you can specify the creation date of the documents in the fields below.
          o Specify age in days
            If this field is selected, two other fields are displayed in which you can specify the age of documents relative to the actual date. The system determines the related creation date during runtime (or by choosing <ENTER>). If you double-click an input field, you can (as with all selection options) choose free selections. With the setting "Larger", for example, you can select "Delete documents that are older than 90 days".
Further restriction of choice
      By choosing "Document data" and "Send requests", you can restrict the selection further.
          o Document class, object year, object number
            These correspond to the ID of the document on the database (table SOOD). A document can be clearly identified in this way. The object year is a number, which begins in 1975 with 0 Therefore, object year 30 is the year 2005. You can find values for the fields mentioned above in transaction SOST (for example), by choosing 'Details' for a send request. Note that you can create main documents only. The definition of attachments is also created in the SOOD. However, documents are only deleted together with the respective main document.
          o Address type and status code
            Note that these attributes are recipient-dependent. If values are entered in these fields, a document may not be deleted if more recipients with other values still exist.
          o Expired send requests
            If the field "Only expired send requests" is selected, only documents whose related send requests have an expired expiry date or documents that have been selected explicitly for deletion are deleted. Send requests without an expiry date are not deleted.
Options
          o Maximum number of hits
            The maximum number of hits can limit the runtime. Note that the data is not read in a sorted manner from the database, so that not only the oldest documents are created if the maximum number of hits is restricted. The maximum number of hits corresponds to the selected and not the deleted documents. In principal, we recommend that you restrict the maximum number of hits using the selection period.
          o Packet size
            The packet size determines the number of data records that can be read, checked and deleted by the database at one time. In the productive run, a database commit occurs after each packet. An increase in the packet size can produce an increase in performance, whereby more working memory is also required however. Depending on the volume of data and the database system used, small values can also lead to better performance.
          o Detailed output
            If you set the "Detailed Output" option, more details related to the selected documents are displayed. If the field is selected, the number of documents to be deleted per year is output. Furthermore, the number of documents per year that cannot be deleted for certain reasons is output. You can display a list of the respective documents by double-clicking in the online run. If you double-click a document in this list, all uses for this document are displayed.
          o Test mode
            If the "Test mode" field is selected, no database changes are carried out, but the entries to be deleted are counted and output. All specified counters are approximate values in the test mode, and since no deletions are carried out, the values can deviate from those of the productive run. Furthermore, several entries cannot be created in the test mode (for example, how many address references or Knowledge Provider documents are to be deleted).
There is a problem with system performance.
As with the preceding reports, we recommend that you regularly schedule the report RSBCS_REORG as a background job. If a large amount of data has accumulated, you can expect a correspondingly long runtime.
Packet size
      As already aforementioned, the setting of the packet size can produce an improvement in the runtime, whereby no general rule can be given here. The default value of 500 has proved to the best on average during tests on different systems with different databases.
Database indices
      The main selection of data occurs in table SOOD. The selection options under "Selection period" and "Document data" correspond directly to fields of this table. The database index DAT for field SOOD-MANDT and SOOD-CRDAT are therefore delivered with the Support Package related to this note. Since the date is the most important selection option, you should create this index manually, and activate it when you implement the corrections using Note Assistant.
Database statistics
      These statistics should be current when the report is running. This is valid at least for the following tables:
      SOOD, SOOS, SOES, SOFM, BCST_SR, SRBCSBREL

List (as in ...lcdui.List) default action...?

I'm having some problems with a List, as stated in the topic.
I'm writing a small chat client, and the contents of the list is the currently online users.
When it's empty, everything is fine, and there is only one soft button mapped to a command ("Open chat").
However, when the list is NOT empty, another command suddenly pops up, ("Select", translated from swedish), as the default (left soft button).
When I click the select button, it appears to restart my whole MainLoop() function and connect again, without disconnecting, etc.
So, my question is: How do I change the action for the select button, to make that one "Open chat" instead?

Thanks, but never mind.
As with most bugs, it was my stupid programming that was the fault of this. :)
If anyone else is having the same problem, which I doubt, here's the thing:
public void commandAction(Command c, Displayable d)
     if (c == List.SELECT_COMMAND && (List)d == mainMenu)
          switch (((List)d).getSelectedIndex())
               case 0:
                              // ... main menu options
     ... other actions here
       else if (c == List.SELECT_COMMAND || c == openChatCommand)
           // Open chat window
       }I'm sure you all see that List.SELECT_COMMAND is processed twice (well, actually only once, since it'll never get to the second clause).
Anyway, the quite easy solution was to check whether the Displayable d was mainMenu or the user list.

How do I set the printer to default in fast mode?

I want my printer to default to the fast mode rather than standard; as it is I have to adjust it for each document. How do I do that?

Every Printer driver allow you to save a set of settings.
For instance,
I defined
A4 black & white
A4 colors
listings black & white (which prints two pages on an A4 sheet)
listing colors (which prints two pages on an A4 sheet)
Do the same with your settings.
Use the item Enregistrer or the item Enregistrer sous to save your settings.

It will not let me make it my default ? So cant try that.
I have used the Adobe removal tool and reinstalled with no luck
Any thoughts ??

Thanks

Unable to add printer to printer list

Hello everybody!
I'm unable to add a printer to the printer list. It's a HP Photosmart Plus B210a. I configured the printer without any difficulties (unpacking, installing ink, booting up, first run test prints, connecting it to the wireless network etc.). Now I want to add the printer to my Macbook Air (11", late 2010 version, Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard) via the wireless connection.
To do this, I go to the system settings, printers and faxing. Since I have no other printers installed, there's nothing to see there. I clikc the plus + to add a printer and it finds the Photosmart via Bonjour connection. All looks fine to this point (doesn't it?). The I click add and then software update asks if I want to download software. Clicking not now obviously doesn't add the printer, clicking install starts a search for software (after accepting Apple's terms). Software is found, downloaded and installed, but after the install, nothing happens! The install progress bar closes, but then I'm still in the add printer screen, where I can still see the Photosmart through Bonjour connection. In the printer screen, the printer lists remains empty! When I add the printer again, it wants to search for software again, but it's unable to find (I guess because it doesn't find newer software, since I now have the software installed already). It simply doesn't add the printer to the list.
Connecting the printer with a USB cable ends up the same: you install the printer, but it won't show up in the printer list. Installing again results in the same message that no software can be found.
I also tried downloading the software from HP. Installation works just fine, but after the installation the software want to configure the printer through the same add printer screen. There I end up the same way: adding the printer makes software update search. Now it finds a HP printer update, which installs just fine, but the printer simply is not added to the printer list. This is also confirmed by the HP configuration software: it detects that the wireless printer is not in the list. Installing via USB cable however, ends up in succesful installation (says HP configuration software), but no success: no printer available!!!
I can reproduce everything as many times as I like, by using the HP uninstaller that is installed with the download I installed manually. Then everything happens all over again, no matter what I try.
Does anybody know what kind of error this is? (there is no error message anywhere, only the notification from software update that it can't find new softare at the moment). Does anybody have experience with adding this particular printer, or any HP printer or any printer at all? Why can't I add my printer?
I think it's Apple related, not HP related. The printer works as it should (for what that's worth if you can't use it because your computer doesn't accept it). I can print through HP ePrint. This is not ideal, because it always prints the e-mail and attachment so it costs an extra page and a bit of ink. I just want to print simply by printing directly for my Macbook!
Any help is appreciated, I hope my problem is described with enough detail, but if you need more info, ask! I will provide.

Hi Niala... Before you go thru the hassle of reinstalling your operating system, please try installing Gutenprint for your Mac: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
I just purchased a new EPSON printer today and couldn't add it to my printer queue (just like you): i kept getting an error message telling me that the driver was unavailable from Apple, and there was a Bonjour connectio problem somewhere.
Anyway: I downloaded the Gutenprint drivers, installed them and the next time I clicked on the [+] sign, everything went well.
Maybe it will work for you too. Definitely worth a try...
Cheers!

NI Reports print function default printer behaviour

Just an FYI... Using the NI Reports Print Report.vi without wiring the printer name does not always work as expected at least for Excel. If you do the following with an Excel worksheet:
1) Print to "Printer1"
2) Print to "" (default)
The second printer operation will print to "Printer1" because it is now set as the 'Active Printer' in the open Excel workbook.
The Print Report.vi does not actually write the name of the default printer to the Excel _Print.vi PrintOut method. It passes an empty string, so Excel will print with the current active printer which may or may not be the default printer.
The Print Report.vi documentation should probably be changed to reflect that passing an empty string to the 'printer name (default)' terminal will not print to the default printer in all cases.

That is all good information - and all information which I already know and which does not answer my question.
The issue that I am having is that Safari and Safari alone is ignoring the printer setting. Could be something in the Safari plist file or somewhere else in Safari that is not working correctly - or at least I am assuming that it is a problem that Safari is not doing what it is supposed to for some reason - rather than Safari deliberately being programmed to ignore the system pref for printer setting.

SAP GUI refresh printer list

Hi all,
We have a very strange problem in SAP GUI...seems that the SAP GUI does not refresh its printer list.
A new printer was installed, and old one removed, but when you try to print something.. you see the two printer.
How is that possible?
It seems SAPGUI does not detect the change, or it writes the printer list somewhere, where it has no write access anymore.
Computer restarted - nothing!
Any help will be apreciated
Thank you!

Hello Alessandra,
the two Access Methods use completely different technologies, therefore you will see a completely different result with Access Method G.
When Access Method G is used, the R/3 printer popup will not show the the frontend printers anymore. Where the printers appeared with Access Method F, the place will be simply empty with Access Method G. This means: it will not be possible anymore to select the frontend printer with 'G' in the R/3 popup (which is shown in your screenshot).
Instead, the frontend printer can be selected with a new popup. After the R/3 printer popup has been confirmed, a new popup will appear. This will be shown by the Windows OS.
This popup should not show the double printer problem. If the double printer problem appears here too, that means something still has not been uninstalled / deleted from the frontend.
The reason is that this new popup is handled by the Windows OS. So if this new popup still shows both printers, Windows needs to be checked why is this so.
Best regards,
Laszlo

Printer Pool does not appear in Available Printer list

I run a school lab with 35 iMacs in it. We have 2 network printers. I am trying to set up a print queue on our XServe to pool the printers so that jobs will go to whichever one is free/not out of paper/etc. I have successfully set up queues for the individual printers and I have created a printer pool, which I set as the default queue.
The problem is that when I look in the students' available printer list, all I see are the queues for the individual printers and not the pool. How do I make the pool appear so that I can set it as the default printer for the students?
Thanks in advance.
Nancy

Apparently, that is how it is designed.
