How to make blank copies of a PDF file and put it into the printer tray.

Dear experts,
Before you try printing the data from the FM, How tomake several blank copies of the PDF file and put it in the printer tray so that you can print just the data from the function module on it??????
Please reply.

Hi drredwood,
When you open your PDF file a yellow bar will appear on the top of the screen.
Click on 'Enable All Features'.
Then you will be able to copy the content from your pdf and to paste in any of the file.

Printing multiple copies of 3 page BOL in Duplex mode-

Hi Gurus!
I have created a smartform to print the BOL on front side and terms and conditions on back side. I used the duplex mode to print and it works perfectly fine. When I have a BOL with 3 pages of information , it prints the items on the front side and terms and conditions on the second side and it does everything absolutely correctly.
At our organization we always print 5 copies of any BOL and that is when the problem arises. When we do a printing of the BOL form with number of copies set to 5 , it prints very akwardly with the settings. First it prints page 1 front and same thing on the back, then again the first page on the first and its back and then front on the third side , then similarly 5 sides of terms and conditions and then followed by 5 sides of page 2 items and followed by 5 sides of terms and conditions, which is very akward. Actually it should print first set with page 1 and TC on back of it , then Page 2 and TC on its back and page 3 and TC on its side like it does when I make a single copy.
Is there any settings that I am missing thats making the above happen when I print multiple copies of the BOL?
Please suggest.

Hi!
Thanks for the reply. I changed the settings of the printer to 'Pass Copies as Separate Output Request(in SAP System)' and re-tried printing 5 copies of the BOL and it again seems to print the first page 5 sides then Terms and conditions on 5 sides, then again 5 sides of page 2 and followed by 5 sides of T&C.
My settings on the smartforms is front page "D' and the back and the Last page is blank setting. This runs well when I just have to print one copy of my BOL , it prints the front page and then T&C on its back side , then again the second page and T&C on its back . This only messes when its more than one copy of the set of BOL.
Please suggest as to what to do next to make it print in proper sets.
Thanks and Regards

Printing Multiple Copies of Same Image on Multiple Pages

I have Photoshop Elements 11 on a Windows 8 platform. I can NOT get it to print multiple copies of the same file on multiple pages. I need one file printed on one page multiple times. I have tried the CTRL-ALT-SHIFT and nothing changes. It still just prints one and is done.
I use this for label printing, so I need it to print more than one copy at a time. It also is not saving the settings, so everytime I hit print, I have to readjust the print requirements. This just is not going to work when you need to print a few hundred copies at a time.

You can create your own picture package, if none of the options in the PSE print window>Type of Print work for you. Just make a blank file, copy/paste your image and alt drag it to make multiple copies. You can use the move tool to position things as you want them.
Generally speaking, though, for something like label printing, it's simplest to use PSE to create the image, then use your word processing/desktop publishing program to print the actual labels.

How to print multiple copies of same image (with specific fixed dimensions) on single page

I am using Photoshop Elements 10 on Win 7 PC. I am trying to print multiple copies of one image on a single 8.5x11 sheet of paper? The images are artwork for buttons (to be used in button-making machine) so the dimensions must be exact on the duplicated images. When I select Picture Package, the images are resized to fit the dimensions in the picture package. When I select Contact Sheet, the images are resized to fit the number of columns I selected. Neither is acceptable. How can I repeat the same image on a single piece of paper without having the system re-size the image? I know that I can manually create a new PSE file and manually insert the images into this file. This is what I have been doing as a work-around. But I would hope there is a better/faster way.
Thank-you!

A variation of hatstead's method where the pictures are precisely aligned:
1. Add the picture to the blank file as hatstead described. Use the Move tool to position the picture in the upper left corner.
2. Duplicate the layer. Use the arrow keys (NOT the mouse) to move the new layer to the right.
3. Repeat step 2 until the row is filled:
4. Merge Down the 3 layers into one. Alternatively, link the 3 layers and do a Merge Linked as in this example. The end result is the pictures in the row are on one layer:
5. Duplicate the layer and use the arrow keys to move this down to the 2nd row.
6. Repeat step 5 to create additional rows.
7. Finally, to center the whole thing on the sheet, link all the row layers and position with the arrow keys.
Note that you can also custom-make your own Picture Package. Instructions for this should be somewhere in Help.

HP LaserJet 4MP Printing Blank Pages

Hi there,
This is perhaps OT, but a recent issue with my HP LJ 4MP is causing me great anguish and heartache.
Suddenly, for no apparent reason, my HP is producing blank pages. It just runs and runs spewing out blank pages.
I've tried all the IO resets and a cold reset. Unplugging and leaving idle. Unplugged the Asante bridge between the serial and the CAT 5.
After a while I can get it to stop printing blank pages, it works fine for a while, then the interminable blank pages start again.
Has anyone seen such an issue? Any known resolution?
Thanks a bunch,
Matthew

Matthew,
I too use HP LaserJet 4MP and AssanteTalk Bridge connected to computer via ethernet crossover cable and link from Assante to both my LJ4MP and HPDeskJet855cse, using BelKin QuikNet adapters in a string using RJ11 jumper cables.
My HP driver software is HP8.1.1.
I Never use "BackGround Printing".
I Never use "DeskTop Print Monitor".
The only time I can remember multiple blank copies is when I used to use "Print Monitor and BackGround Printing".
Clear your preferences and get rid of Print Monitor and Don't use BackGround Printing.

HP Officejet Pro 8000 Printing Blank Pages Instead Of Data And Also Reorienting Itself

Hi all
We have a wireless HP Officejet Pro 8000 in our office (but via cable, not wireless) to a network. The printer is occasionally printing blank pages instead of say a spreadsheet selected to print.
The other issue is that if you say are printing two copies of the same spreadsheet, one prints okay (say landscape) and the second copy, selected at the time of printing, prints it portrait but only part of the left hand side of it and the rest is blank. Coming out of and going back inthe file usually recitifes this. But it does it again any time it feels like it.
We did have an upgrade, where our IT guy took away our desktop boxes and replaced with smaller base units and everything is run from a main server and alsoan upgrade from Windows 2000 to Network. Problems started after this and the IT guy did update the printer driver.
Please would anyone be able to assist? Any help for this frustrating problem gratefully accepted!
Thanks,
Saxplayer67

So the issue with the 8000 printer is periodic print jobs do not come out as you are wanting them. Is that right? This is interesting, just from the point of view that generally speaking issues like this are like a light switch, they are either there or they are not - they usually don't come and go. That being said, we are going to see what we can do to resolve this. First I am going to recommend that we perform a clean installation of the printer after uninstalling it from the machine. By the way, what is the operating system you are working with - Is it Windows 2000 Network?
First if you use a USB cord, make sure to remove it. Do not plug it back in until the software directs you to. Then go through the Devices and Printers, Programs and Features and Device Manager folders and insure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. Then as directed, restart the computer.
In the START menu type "%temp%" and press ENTER. Here I want you to press Ctrl+A and hit DELETE. Some of the files will not allow you to delete them, skip those files and delete the majority that allows it.
Then follow this link to download the full feature software and drivers for the printer:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3762364
Install that and let me know the result!
Have a great day!

Unable to print multiple copies in Acrobat Pro

I am trying to print 2 copies of a 5 page PDF using Acrobat Pro 8.2.6
When i send the PDF to print 2 or more copies it goes as 1 document of 10,15,20 pages depending on how many copies I asked for.
It then prints page 1 of the second copy onto the back of page 5 of the first copy. not what I want!!!!
I have updated Acrobat to the latest version, deleted my printers including the drivers but no joy.
Any ideas?

What OS? What printer and printer driver? What are you printer driver settings?
If you have an odd number of pages in your document, you might consider adding an intentionally blank page. If your printer will not print an intentionally blank page, print a page with white text on a white background.

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...

Print 2 copies of check for payment

Hi,
I need to print 2 copies of check (one for supplier and one for accounting) on a laser printer but SAP don't permit me.
Do you have an idea?
Thank you,
Frédéric Marchand

Bonjour Frédéric,
You can only print one copy of cheque (Checks for Payment) if you are indicating "2" copies in Document Printing. If you change the number of copies in the printer window (i.e. where you select the printer, etc), you will get 2 copies of the cheque. If you are printing off multiple cheques, you will probably need the alternate pages to be blank paper (don't think the Collate option will work since check is probably 1 page).
Another option - your Accounting dept may be okay with the Outgoing Payment report/template.
