Printing black as a 'dropout' color (and not overprinting)

How do I set up a solid drop shadow on type without having the black shadow overprint a color beneath it?
I have it overprinting a red background, and you can see a slight tint of red in the black drop shadow.
Thanks.

Make your own black, additionally, as process color CMYK = 0/0/0/100, this own made black will not overprint by default contrary to the black in Brackets.

HP 6500A Plus will not print black only if any color cartridges are low. It used to. Why not now?

HP 6500A Plus will not print black only if any color cartridges are low. It used to. Why not now? It will print in color if the black is low but not if any color is low. This is very annoying. Printer is using HP cartridges too.

Get used to this with HP printers - its a new feature they have introduced to keep running costs lows - works well. Had two HP printers same happened with both of these. Suggest a different brand - they might not have this special feature

How do I change the color of font in a fillable form in Adobe Reader? How can I check if the writer of the document has given permission to edit color and not just add text?

How do I change the color of font in a fillable form in Adobe Reader? How can I check if the writer of the document has given permission to edit color and not just add text? Please help! I'm technologically challenged.

Most forms (99% or more) are created for simple text input, where you cannot change anything.
The creator of the form could allow Rich Text input (which allows you to change font, text size, color, etc.), but frankly I have never seen such a form, and I wouldn't know how they look. But I'm sure they would show some kind of controls to alter the text appearance.

How may I print out a picture from paper and not the photo tray?

How may I print out a picture from paper and not the photo tray?

From paper? Do you have a digital image of it on your iPhone?
"Photo tray"? What do you mean here? The iPhone does not have a photo tray. Printers have trays.

Recursion - i want to print 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and not 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, how to do?

I'm a new to recursion. Can anyone tell me how to changes the method writeNums(int i) so it prints 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and not 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ?
Thanks.
public class Ex2writeNums
     public static void main(String[] args)
          writeNums(5);
     private static void writeNums(int i)
          if(i<0)
               throw new IllegalArgumentException("negative number");
          else if(i==0)
               //base case
               System.out.println();
          else
               // recursive case
               writeNums(i-1);
               System.out.print(i+", ");
}

my code must be generic so i can use it for i=10 etc. So I can not write code like this:

Just add a second argument, limit, which specifies how high you must count. Your code becomes
     if(i != limit)System.out.print(i+", ");
        else System.out.println(i);There are many ways to do this. You now have at least three. Pick one.

Officejet 7110 won't print black only with empty color cartridges

There is a similar thread on this for the Officejet 6700, but I wanted to put it out there for the Officejet 7110 too.
When one of the color cartridges is getting LOW on ink, you start getting error messages for black and white printing. A prompt asks you if you want to print in just black ink, even though you have set all the settings in the dialog to black ink only. Strange, but at least you can keep printing in black ink only. Until...
When one of the color cartridges becomes EMPTY, you get totally cut off from printing in black ink only! You will be allowed to print NOTHING until you put in a new color cartridge!
I don't actually need to print color on this printer. I use it for half size check plots of engineerings drawings. Why on Earth would I need color cartridges to print black ink only checkplots? This is a total scam by HP to milk every last penny from the consumer.

I signed up for this forum just so I could respond to this thread.
After looking for an HP email address for support (that was also a joke), turns out its not simply a printer setting you can disable.
We also purchased this OfficeJet 7110 printer for strict use of black at the office.
Years and years of everyone saying, "Don't buy HP products, stop buying HP products, HP products are inferior." - to rephrase nicely.
Thought I would give it a shot, right out of the box the alignment was screwed up and took about 8 hours to fix and reprint the testing sheet (further sapping the colour cartridges). Now I can't even print in black. This nonsense about mixing colour to create a more true black, that's the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Let me print in gray if the ink quality you supply is so terrible.
Will not buy another HP product again, and I will joint he hoard of many who will spread the good word.
To put it bluntly; HP - get your **shhit-frawking-bleep** together.

EPrint prints photo using my main tray and not the photo tray

Hello,
Thanks for reviewing my question. I just bought the HP Photosmart C410 printer and setup the ePrint. When I print a photo from my iPhone it prints on the photo on the 8.5 x 11 paper instead of the photo tray. What gives?
Many Thanks
Peter

Hey PDonstant,
1. You can go into the setup menu on the printer and go into preferences. In preferences you can go to Device Printer Tray Select and choose prompt for tray. This will give you the option to print to photo paper or Legal size.
2. You can try downloading the HP ePrint Home & Biz app and printing from there. You have the option to select the paper size and type from the app.

Hello Community...Macbook w 10.6.8 and I need printing help. Using three canon photo printers of same model and need them to print individually. They are older and NOT network-able. Currently using another Mac to print to 2nd printer. 3 is idle.

Is there software available where all I have to do is hit print and any of the 4x6 printers will print? Once I get this issue settled, I'll get a second larger format. I have to get this rectified because of time and ease. As mentioned, I have a second mac that I share screens with so my assistant can find pics for customers while I'm shooting. So, I can print through that mac to the printer. (ie....print to canon@##%#@Mac 2) I don't want to bring a third computer just to print to three of the same model printer. (That's what I've been doing) BTW....I totally know there are faster dye-sub printers out there but I'm about 4 more events from purchasing one...($$$) Some print under 10 seconds. I would appreciate any answers out there. Thank you.

I don't have that printer and I'm not on Mac, so someone else has to step in there. Generally a green/magenta cast indicates none/double printer color management. But then I don't know what you mean by "slight".
The Spyders aren't the most consistent and reliable calibrators out there. I had a Spyder 3 sensor that I just threw away because it gave a distinct red cast (I have several other calibrators, so there was no doubt). Another potential problem is that with most calibrators you can only adjust the white point along the blue/yellow Kelvin scale, but not on the green/magenta scale. This is often necessary to get a good white point color. In this case you need to use the monitor's OSD controls, and if possible the "pre-calibration" function in the calibrator to measure and monitor it - if that function exists. And I don't know if this is possible with an iMac.
This is basically a question of getting the white point right, both on the blue/yellow and the green/magenta axis (and luminance of course). The goal is to get a visual match to paper white on screen. With the white point properly set, neutral color balance relates to that, and the rest more or less follows by itself. (In addition you should set the proper black point/contrast for full control, but that's not the issue here).

Can the printer also print via wifi?
If your location does’t have wifi use a portable router.

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...

What operating system is on the computer that you are using?
What version is teh operating system?

Prints in PS CC incorrect format and not borderless - please help?

Hi
I am new to printing and thought I would get the basics before I upgrade the printer. I just can't get my prints to reflect correctly on paper, please help - I will explain by way of pictures
The first image is what I want to print but borderless. The only difference between the other two prints is the layout button - Landscape (second Print) and Portrait (Third Print) from the screenshots attached seems to be back to front also in the preview? (I did not print the first print) For the second and third prints I sized the images as per the screenshot and I printed on A3 Paper.
My questions are:
1. Why is my preview wrong - landscape shows as portrait orientation in the preview window and vice versa?
2. Why can't I print borderless - is this a function of the printer not being able to do so or am I doing something wrong?
3. Why can't I get the full photo to print with these settings with/without a border?
Your help will be appreciated.
I am using Photoshop CC 2014 and HP Deskjet 7610, A3 paper, Mac Book Pro and the last bit of my patience.
Maddie

Borderless is a function of the printer and driver, not the application.
It sounds like your printer driver also overrode the landscape vs. portrait setting somehow.
Double check all your settings in the printer driver dialog.

T40P Black screen or fuzzy colors and goes black

I recently have this probpem. My laptop will go black but still running or fuzzy and starts to fade and goes black but if I lift it up and tap it down softly on the desk the screen comes back up(sometimes). I read somewhere it could be a loose cable which makes sense if I move or tap it and it comes back on. Anyways this is happening more often. I am wondering if I get a monitor to use for the short term will it solve the issue. I have work to get done in the next month. I did have to reload all my software in April and thought it could be a driver but agian tapping it makes me think that is not it. I called an IBM repair shop and they could not fix it within a week and I need it so I am hoping a monitor is a short term fix. Any solutions? I can buy a new laptop but would like to fix this one and have as a backup if possible. I am not tech savy-I do accounting and need the info on the laptop to finish some jjobs. Also-can I just take out my drive and put in another laptop? 2373-G3U thanks

Hello mkandziora,
the incident that your display goes off by moving your unit, seems to point to a problem called flexing.
The mobo flexes and the gfx chip, soldered on mobo, became loose and you´ll need a new mobo.
In euro´s 150,-.
It´s a more common problem of T4* series.
Kind regards
Andreas
