Hi jdicresce,
I would like to have you print a nozzle check pattern from the printer to see if the inkjet nozzles are dispensing the ink correctly. To do this, please follow the steps located at the link below:
Printing the Nozzle Check Pattern
When the nozzle check pattern printed, did it look like the image below, including the black grid at the top above the colors?

Screen turns blank all it sudden...

I installed SL on a MBP all went normal, but now all it sudden the screen turns black. All I can do is to push the power on/off button till it reboots.
All works fine and then all it sudden I loose the screen again.
I was on skype with a friend while it happened, sound and everything else was still going fine, only the screen turned black (actually very dark gray).
This happens since I installed SL, it does get a little better (had waaay more blank outs shortly after the install) but I normally don't get more then maybe 30 minutes out of the laptop before I have to restart it again.
Any ideas? Any help?
Sure appreciated.
Thanks

I had a similar experience this weekend. First road trip with my MBP converted to SL. I normally get the "you are running on reserve power" notification when I'm running low, but when watching movies on the flight out and back, the computer spontaneously went black - I thought it had shut down out of power. But both times when I later turned it back on I had more than 25% power still remaining. I was thinking it was some kind of problem between the DVD player app and low power notification, but after reading this I am wondering if the screen simply went black as is being described. Unfortunately I did not even try to reboot it after it went dead, assuming it was simply out of power.
Picking up the 'book and putting it back in my briefcase it did not feel overly or unusually warm. On the way out I was running with an external drive connected to the 'book and on the way back I was watching a DVD ... so the only interesting symptom was that in both cases power usage was a little more (or at least different) than normal (I usually watch movies right from the hard drive). The worst thing is that the spontaneous shutdown on the way out seemed to have killed my little external drive - I mean dead. Can't even find it at all in Disk Utility - pretty weird, but that smacks of some kind of power event as well.

My mac won't start at all. Please help urgently. Thanks!

My shockwave was not working. So I decided to quit all programs and restart my mac
It doesn't restart at all.
There is a ding and then it just gies power off.
Tried safe reboot but still the same thing happen.

Did you try booting into your Recovery partition? Hold down the command and R keys whilst booting and if you can get to your Recovery partition use Disk Utility to verify your disk and, if needed, repair the disk.
If it can't be repaired, then it's likely dying.

HP PSC 2175 All-in-one prints blank pages from word, chrome and notes

My HP all-in-one printer PSC 2175 all-in-one has suddenly decided to print blank pages.
So far I've tried printing from Word, Notes and Photoshop but come up with nothing.
It prints test pages and diagnostic pages without any problems and it makes direct copies without problems.
The diagnostic tool can't find anything wrong.
I've run all the software I could find on Swedish HP.
I've reinstalled the printer, reinstalled Word, repaired Windows, nothing helps.
I have Windows XP, fully updated.
Any suggestions?

I am having this problem too - just prints blank pages. Ran the tests checked cartridges settings sanity nothing.Scans fine.I currently have three duff printers in my office which is more than frustrating...

The pages selected to print are all blank

I don't know what is going on but all of a sudden Illustrator cs6 is giving me a message saying "the pages selected to print are all blank." Nothing in my print dialog has changed. Printing a black and white object. Tiling is not checked. There is nothing wrong with the layers as there is only one. I printed these pages last week from AI. Now it won't. I have no idea what is going on now. Please help.

There is no template, and it does it with any file I open.

Windows 8.1 printing blank pages from all apps

Morning Tech Support: My favorite people!! This just began within the this week where what ever appl I attempt to print from, prints blank pages. Upon viewing the print spooler, it shows doc going into printer okay, no probs w/ margins
or page size (already checked). Printer is Canon MG5400 (newer). I've already rebooted turned on the computer where the computer is installed. What else could it be. Working on installing new updates that just came down as well.

Try install all updates for Windows and check for update for latest version of your printer's software.
Try run a test print and check if it works.
Also check the cartridge and make sure they are okay.
You may contact Canon's support too.

Help[: Laserjet 1300: Printing blank pages (new cartridge & drivers installed)

Hi All, printer keeps printing blank pages, just bought a new cartridge and even re-installed the drivers- can anyone perhaps advise as to a way to resolve as I am urgently needing to print?

Forgot to mention that I am not getting an error message either, except when I go through the motions of scanning the (blank) alignment page. That error is related to the fact that it is blank though.
Thanks for any assistance.

I am not able to print pdf file from coursesmart website. i disabled flash plugin and only images are on the pages. When i preview, i only see blank page...help

i disabled flash plugin.
now i open site - http://www.coursesmart.com/9780495797494/2
page contains images.When i click on print preview button, i cant see anything.... also i tried all pdf plugins and extensions, but none help to convert/print page in pdf. please help. how can i print whole page to pdf?

Doesn't work in Google Chrome either.
Looks that the page has a lot of protection measures (context menu is disabled) and DIVs that overlay each other, so it is possible that the print routine only sees an empty DIV and not the image or the real page.<br />
That big image consists of two parts as you can see via Tools > Page Info > Media and the inspector.

Just updated the latest Epson software printer update from Apple. Now all my prints look solarized. How do I get rid of the new update and go back to the perfect prints I had before? Help please. Wasting ink and paper at the moment!!!!!!
I have tried the printer with my laptop (not updated) and everything is fine. It's just the beautiful 27" Imac that can no longer print.

Might be a corrupted printer preference file ...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
~/Library/Preferences
Click Go
Move the com.apple.PrinterPrefs.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac, restart the printer...

HP Deskjet 3050 All-in-One Printer J610a is printing blank pages

Your HP Deskjet 3050 is printing BLANK PAGES?
The printer ejects blank sheets of paper when printing. Some or all the printed pages might be partially blank or half printed. It can be the software that you are printing from or program. Sometimes it can be the actual print head needs cleaning or cartridges are low.

Yes, the link is down.
See if you can print a self-test page or printer status report from the printer itself. If so, then it is a software or connection issue.
If you can print test page, try to use a different USB cable. Also, you can uninstall and re-install the software and drivers.
If you are NOT able to print a test page from the printer, try to clean the cartridges with lint free cloth and water.

HP DeskJet 1050 ALL-IN-ONE J410 series Printer Scanner stopped working suddenly

About a month back Scanner in my printer-scanner (DeskJet 1050 All-In-One J410 series) stopped working with a message on screen " HP Deskjet 1050 J410 series was not found". But the Printer was working fine. I have so far taken following steps with results against each -
a) HP Print & Scan doctor (HPPSdr.exe) showed HP Twain Scan faulty.
b) On advice from HP helpline, tried HP Deskjet Full Feature Software & Drivers (DJ1050_J410_1313.exe). It required uninstalling before installing. But uninstalling failed to happen.
c) Finally, with HP Printer Install Wizard (hppiw.exe) help it showed that Full Feature HP Software & Drivers is now installed. For its functionality, it called for its testing on 'print test page' and 'test scan'. After this, printer shows printing jobs in queue but will not print. At present it is limited to photocopying only without printing & scanning.
d) I am caught in a loop, because at the end of hppiw.exe message is '...if tests are not successful, HP recommends using HPPSdr.exe to diagnose and fix any problem' i.e. back to point (a) above.
Any solution to the above problem?

HP 3510 All In One only printing blank pages after cartridge replacement

Recently replaced my blank ink cartridge after supply level showed low, and printed output looked faded.
Using genuine HP product - check
Cartridge supply level good - check
Powered on and off twice - check
Installed, removed, re-installed cartidges - check
Good paper - check
Alignment prints blank page - does not print partial or low quality, just produces a blank page.
Printing from my computer, a word document, also produces a blank page - not parital - blank.
Was printing before the HP cartridge change.
Did I buy a bad HP cartridge?
Any help would be appreciated.

Forgot to mention that I am not getting an error message either, except when I go through the motions of scanning the (blank) alignment page. That error is related to the fact that it is blank though.
Thanks for any assistance.
