Printer sharing with Epson printer not working

I have an iMac using OS X 10.5.5 with 2 printers, an Apple LaserWriter Select 360 and an Epson Stylus Photo 820. I want to share these printers with Windows XP machines. The Apple LaserWriter works fine. I can print from the Windows machine without any problems.
The Windows machine sends the file to the Epson, but it never shows up in the Epson print queue. Drivers from Epson have been installed and Windows indicates every thing is OK. Windows sees the printer and does not indicate any problem.
Every thing else is the same for both printers.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Fran

OS X printing is based on postscript.
Print queues on OS X expect to receive postscript.

File sharing with MBP does not work

The problem is that I cannot connect to my first-gen MacBook Pro from my 2 Ghz Intel iMac in my own home network. I have tried opening all ports in the sharing menu without success. The laptop shows up in the finder window but no connection is made. There is not even an error message. It simply says (after a long while) that the connection failed. Nothing even happens when I try to click on the "connect as" button. This is true for file sharing and screen sharing. I can connect to the iMac from the laptop, ironically enough. I was able to connect both ways at one point. My set-up is as follows: airport express connected to modem/router; iMac and laptop connected wirelessly to airport express. Any ideas would be great. I am at a complete loss as the laptop has no other connection issues of any kind.
Update: I just got an error message for the first time: The server may not exist or it is not operational at this time. Check the server name or IP address and your network connection and try again.

Connecting via "connect to server" in finder menu using afp does not work either. FYI. It just tries connecting for a long while and then gives me the following error (-36). The finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "afp://....." could not be read or written.

Printer and File Sharing with Windows is not working

I have a MacBook Pro, Vista machine, and an XP machine on my network.
The MacBook Pro is running 10.5.2.
The Windows machines can see the MacBook Pro and access files on it, but I cannot see the Windows machines in Finder - thus I can't access the printers on those machines.
If I goto 'Finder> Go> Connect to Server' and enter smb://ipadress I am able to mount the shares and access them.
But obviously this does not help me with Printer sharing.
Any help is appreciated, but FYI I have been reading many suggestions and none have worked.

Go to "System Preferences/Security/Firewall" and change settings to: "Set access to specific services and applications". "File Sharing" and "Printer sharing" were already present for me, I don't know how to get them if they are not, and I don't know what the ramifications for security are. I can now see Windows computers and printers.

Multiple row column-sharing with GridBadLayout does not work as expected

I was trying to figure out why I could not initially accomplish the following with a GridBagLayout:
Row0: 0000011111
Row1:      1111122222
Row2:           2222233333The above is supposed to be 3 JLabels on three different rows:
The 1st row has a single JLabel starting in column 0 with a width of 2, extending it to column 1.
The 2nd row has a single JLabel starting in column 1 with a width of 2, extending it to column 2.
The 3rd row has a single JLabel starting in column 2 with a width of 2, extending it to column 3.
The entire grid is 4 columns and 3 rows total.
Below I have two examples where I attempted the above. Only the 2nd example produces the desired effect. The 1st code example ends up putting both the Row 0 and Row 1 JLabel in the same column. This was surprising because I thought the GridBagLayout would give each column contained by a control enough weight to actually make those columns exist.
Here is what my first code example below produces:
Row0: 0000011111
Row1: 1111122222
Row2:           2222233333The first two JLabels, 0000011111 and 1111122222, appear in the same column, and the 3rd JLabel appears in the seemingly 2nd column. This was confusing to me which is the point of this whole post.
In order to gain the desired effect, I had to place 4 blank dummy empty JLabel components in a non-visible Row 0 of the grid. I did this for all 4 columns of that invisible row 0. The row is non-visible because the JLabel have no text or output. After adding this non-visible Row 0, all of the original mentioned Rows 0 through 2 become Rows 1 through 2 respectively.
For example:
Row0: iiiiiIIIIIiiiiiIIIII
Row1: 0000011111
Row2:      1111122222
Row3:           2222233333The above shows an inserted Row 0 with invisible labels that are not seen, but they seem to give weight to each column, allowing each to exist. Without doing this, as mentioned, the first code example (shown below) fails. The second example (also below) works, so it appears that putting the invisible controls into the first row, one in each column, somehow gives enough weight to each column to "establish" the column more so than otherwise.
The big question I have is why didn't the first example work?
I mean, in that example, I'm giving each JLabel equal weight, and each one takes up a width of 2 columns, so why doesn't the JLabel in the second row end up in column 1? Instead, both the original row 0 and row 1 JLabels appear in what looks like column 0, the same column. Does anyone know why this happened?
The invisible control solution is fine but I'm just curious why it wasn't as intuitive as it should have been. The only thing I can come up with is that the weight of the 1st and 2nd JLabel (row 0 and 1) got combined in some fashion which combined them into column 1 which end up looking like column 0 since 0 somehow looses all weight. (???)

I think I figured out the general reason for the problem based on a quick trace through of the GridBadLayout code in a simple example, and I wanted to share my findings in case they may be useful to anyone else. I felt there were some concepts gleaned from the source code that don't appear reinforced with documentation or, more importantly, in tutorials or books I checked. That's why I wanted to share my findings with this simple yet perplexing example.
This example is very much like the one in my original post except it is more simple and only uses two JLabels.
I created a grid with the following settings:
JLabel1,gridx=0,gridy=0,gridwidth=2,weightx=1.0
JLabel2,gridx=1,gridy=1,gridwidth=2,weightx=1.0Using the character '1' for JLabel1, and the character '2' for JLabel2, and 'x' for an "empty" grid cell, the above gives me the following simple conceptual layout:
11x
x22But the 'x' cell columns don't receive any weight, so things actually appear as follows:
11
22Internally, GridBagLayout (GBL), is really producing the following:
11x
x22But since the 'x' locations take no weight, they therefore get no size, so both JLabels appear as though they are in the first and only column.
From what I can see, it doesn't really matter what I do, I'll never be able to produce the following effect with just two JLabels:
11x
x22I cannot do the above with just two JLabel components and a GridBagLayout. The reason is that the GridBagLayout, while it does define a "grid" of rows and columns, the grid is not a grid that actually relates to what is displayed. It's really a grid that defines what I'll refer to as "weight collisions" or "weight pools." If two components share, say, a grid column, their weights will combine with respect to that column. But the total size of the grid doesn't play a role in enforcing that some sort of grid display is maintained. The grid can possibly do that, but it would probably be safer to view that result as a side-effect produced by using the "weight pools" created by the grid itself.
In the above simple example, JLabel1 ends up giving gridx 1 (0 being first) its full weight of 1.0. The gridx 0 column receive zero weight from JLabel1. What happens is the code in GridBagLayout sees that there are no presently assigned weights to column 0 and it simply assigns all remaining unassigned weight of JLabel1 to JLabel1's last, right-most in this case, gridx column. This means that gridx 1 gets the full 1.0.
By contrast, though, when processing JLabel2, the GridBagLayout sees the previously assigned 1.0 to gridx 1 (JLabel1's right-most grid column) and it ends up assigning all of JLabel2's weight to that same grid location, gridx 1. In this case, even though JLabel2 supposedly spans through to gridx 2, the actual gridx 2 column gets 0 weight from JLabel2 and therefore gets no width.
The result is that both JLabel1 and JLabel2 give 100% of their weight to gridx column 1 (what I called above a "weight pool" rather than a grid location), and both gridx 0 and gridx 2 receive 0 weight and I'm guessing appear without any size. What's odd about this is that even though JLabel1 starts at gridx=0, it really doesn't draw itself anywhere but starting at gridx=1. Likewise, even though JLabel2 draws itself supposedly from gridx=1 through to gridx=2, it doesn't really go into gridx=2 because gridx=2 doesn't get any width.
In fact, given the code in GridBagLayout, it doesn't matter how much weight I give to either JLabel, all 100% of the weight will end up in gridx 1, the "center" grid location. The only way to get columnar distribution is to create other components to force the GridBagLayout to see individual columns which match the "grid." When I do this, the columns allow me to create the JLabels in a fashion where they intent/stagger, where a JLabel can start at a "column" location that is in the middle of another JLabel.
Given this, I've come to the conclusion that it's not worthwhile to look at the GBL "grid" as a grid that propagates grid-like visual locations. It's more like the grid exists during the computation of weights which end up determining the true columns and rows that will visually exist, which may well not be anything like the grid locations one might visualize when looking at the constraints used.
I think it's unfortunate that many examples and tutorials don't reinforce this concept with simple examples that help one grasp this easily. Most examples I see actually can fool a user into thinking a grid is a true grid in that positions represent visual locations, or that a control spanning into a grid column means that weight will be (at least) partially distributed there.
You very often won't see the problem I'm describing above when you have dialogbox-like alignment of components which most tutorials and examples utilize. For example, if I take the same example as above, but intent JLabel so that it's gridx is 2, not 1, then both JLabels will not be sharing a single grid column so their weights won't collide. In such a case, one might be misled into thinking that a GridBagLayout's grid is truly providing row/col locations when it's not really doing that. Instead, in this latter case, one is really gaining that effect because certain unintuitive weight collisions. which would produce unexpected results, are being avoided.
I thought weightx values would give a weight equally to all gridx columns that a component spans but that doesn't seem to be the case here. In fact, it's not even a components first column in my simple example above. GBL causes JLabel1 to given all its weight to gridx=1 (and nothing to gridx=0) while GBL causes JLabel2 to give all its weight to gridx=1 (and nothing to gridx=2). In one case, JLabel1, all weight goes to its right-most spanned-to column, while with JLabel2, it goes to JLabel2's entire first gridx location.
I guess this is what makes GridBagLayout (GBL) unintuitive. But I don't think it's so much unintuitive as it is probably not well documented. When you look at the source code, it explains stuff which should be in the docs. In fact, not one single book I saw gave any help in solving this problem. I'm guessing this is largely because folks use GBL through trial and error until they get what they want, and perhaps they don't often need to indent halfway as I'm trying to do with GBL in the above example. If a lot of components are aligned, the results are not as unexpected. I'd say, though, that even in those not-so-confusing cases, GBL can troublesome without knowing its grid is all about a grid of weight pools which may or may not produce a visual grid depending on all components' constraint settings.

Local Printer not working via Remote Link

I have a problem with my remote desktop printing to my local printer. I connect via RD on Windows 7 Home to Windows 7 Pro. I have installed an HP Laserjet Pro CM1415fn printer. All prints fine locally. Also everything printed fine
but have had to have a recent update to my Remote PC that I log into. So the printer had to be reinstalled.
All worked ok for about 6 print jobs then stopped working. Nothing has changed. I have changed the settings on the printer as it seemed to be when the printer went into 'Sleep' mode. I have tried restarting the Printer Spooler in Services
and rebooting the remote PC but no joy.
Any ideas please.

Hi,
You mean after the reinstallation, the local printer worked for a while and then stopped working with nothing changed?
Take a try with the printer troubleshooter:

Printer not working following iPad uodate

Printer not working following iPad upgrade

Hi,
Is the printer not mechanically working or are you having a problem with printing wirelessly from your device? Was the upgrade to the ipad software or did you get a new ipad?
Try restarting your apple device - It's a simple fix that sometimes helps re-establish the connection to the printer.
Other things to check would be that there have been no recent changes to the wifi password.

I cant access any printers, not even the virtual printers.
What I would do is use ProcMon to find out why that Event entry was written. Then I imagine I would get a clue about a .dll which might be involved, which hopefully might be registerable. Since IE9 there have been new .dll involving printing
which have not been reflected in any of our repair tools. However, instead of modifying our old scripts to reflect this fact, I have been advocating, so far unsuccessfully, that Microsoft create a proper IE Repair tool, one which does not rely on such
unreliable techniques.   E.g. a better method of repairing would be to have it done by a proper troubleshooter (an .msdt file) but so far it seems nothing has been done in that way for these symptoms (again, assuming the cause is registry corruption
and not simple interference from now incompatible third-party programming--the fix for that would be to identify and remove the incompatibilities.)   For example.

File- Print not working from SQL Developer 1.2.1 Build MAIN-32.13

File->Print not working from SQL Developer 1.2.1 Build MAIN-32.13.
I downloaded sqldeveloper-1.2.1.3213.ZIP and extract to a local directory. From the extracted directory I ran ..\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper.exe from Windows XP sp2. The program itself seems to run just fine but File-Print doesn't do anything. In Help-About, Java Platform is reported as 1.5.0_06 and Oracle IDE is 1.2.1.3213. I'm not sure where to look for what is causing the problem.
Thanks

I hadn't tried CTRL-P before but I did today. On the first attempt, I saw a small jump in the memory usage for sqldeveloper.exe as reported in Windows Task Manager. Otherwise, there was no change. A second CTRL-P in the same session produced a further bump but subsequent attempts in the same session produced no further change in CPU or Memory Usage.
Using Task Manager to monitor this further, I tried File->Print again and saw that sqldeveloper would periodically climb to 1 or 2 percent CPU and consume a little more memory. After a minute or so, though, all activity stops again.
I do not get a print dialog box from SQLDeveloper using either CTRL-P or File->Print

[svn] 4323: Bug: LCDS-544 - Scenario where two components have seperate channel sets with overlapping channels not working .

Bug: LCDS-544 - Scenario where two components have seperate channel sets with overlapping channels not working.
QA: Yes
Doc: No
Checkintests Pass: Yes
Details:
* Hunting to a new channel within a channelset never triggered a disconnect from the previous channel(s). This isn't a problem in general, but does becomes a problem when an app defines two distinct channelsets containing at least one shared channel at the head of the list. In this case, the first channelset hunts past it and connects on a later channel. But when the second channelset hunts through (triggering a connect fault when it hits that initial shared channel that can't connect), the fault is processed by the first channelset as well (incorrectly).

Hmm.. Thank you for the response.
Have you tried using the iPod with another user account or computer, to help narrow down whether the problem lies with the computer, account, or the iPod itself?
Maybe try reformatting it, using the tools provided by Windows. Instructions on how to reformat your iPod can be found in this article.

Normally, you just connect the monitor to the MacBook using a VGA adaptor that you can buy from an Apple Store. Now try System Preferences > Displays > Detect Displays. You should now be able to select a display mode for the monitor. If it still doesn't work, then I'd check that everything is properly connected. I've had problems with colours disappearing due to a faulty connection in the VGA adaptor.

Touch Panel Shared variable binding does not work.

Hi,
Is there any reason why shared variable binding is not working under Touch Panel Target?
Is there any plan for implementing or there is some trick I should know?

Power book G4 Leopard 10.5.8. File sharing preference checked but not working after start up until unchecked and the rechecked?

I hope the title is enough info, please ask. In the mean time I have created an applescript to open preferences/ sharing and uncheck then check the file sharing box. This works but I would obviously prefer it just work normally. I have no corrupt preference files. Perhaps a file is missing? Thank you.

Greetings Kwnez
I'm not up to your level of expertise yet. I'm networking and file sharing too, on my Mac Powerbook 1.33 GHz PowerPC G4; OS 10.5.8 Lepoard. At the public library I found by asking the clerk a book Authored by David Pogue. "Mac OS X Leopard the Missing Manual". It (the book) has helped me ask better questions. I'm not saying that your question "
Power book G4 Leopard 10.5.8. File sharing preference checked but not working after start up until unchecked and the rechecked?
is hard for me to understand, I went to system preferences and looked at the sharing box. when I clik it it opens up and the first thing I see is my computers name, and under that i see, " Computers on your local network can access your computer at: ...-powerbook-g4-15.local"
What I'm saying is "Are we on the same Page"

FIND with MATCH OFFSET not working

Hi,
I have a statement:
FIND '/' IN <ls_data_package>-/bic/zbib_sysn MATCH OFFSET off2.
this works in all the case except for when <ls_data_package>-/bic/zbib_sysn = SSULTANA-VMC/.
(i.e. when /bic/zbib_sysn = USERID-VMC/, here SSULTANA is the user ID)
*In this case off2 = .
Value of sy-subrc is 0 after this statement is executed
Can some one please point out what I am doing wrong.
Thank you,
CD

>FIND with MATCH OFFSET not working
Most unlikely. More likely is that it isn't doing what you think it should be doing. Or you're using it incorrectly!
I can't really follow what your problem is. I assume you mean that you are getting off2 with value 0, when /bic/zbib_sysn contains USERID-VMC/
Can you be a little clearer in what the issue is?
DATA: off2 TYPE i.
FIND '/' IN 'this string /' MATCH OFFSET off2.
WRITE: / sy-subrc, off2.
This little program returns 0 and 12
