Printing config sm to be set to print in reverse order. How to fix?

OSX 10.6.3 and MS Word 12.23. When I go to print-to-disk a Word document (i.e. turn it into a PDF using Preview as the default display tool) I get a PDF whose pages are in reverse order. Fine for hard copy output, useless for PDF. Every Print pref or config setting I look for offers no help and, of course, as is completely normal, the Help menu offers nothing either.
I have found an easy fix for a small document — do a "preview" of the document in the Print dialog then drag the pages manually to where they should be. But not every document I work with is small.
Suggestions please.

Oh John, thanks for trying to help. However, I'm not trying to print to any printer. I'm trying to "print-to-disk" i.e. save as a PDF to the desktop so I can later send it as an email attachment.
And by the way, I forgot to mention for you and other kind folk in here — the Word print dialog box does contain a setting Copies & Pages/Page Handling/Page Order with the options "automatic, normal, reverse" but it makes no difference what I select, I still end up with "reverse".
Grrr

  • HP Photosmart all in one C309a printing multiple copies when its set to print only one copy.

    having issues with my C309a its now printing multiple copys when its set to print only one copy.it started doing this 4 days ago and its happening on both my Windows 7 64 bit computer and my Vista 32 computer that both have the latest release drivers already installed need help.HP please sort this issue out.still under warranty do i have to return it? 

    I am using a Motorola SBG900 Wirless Surfboard Gateway - supplied with Bigpond Cable. It is set to be using WPA security and have never had a problem with it before whilst connecting any wireless devices such as a laptop, PDA etc.
    My feeling is that the wireless functionality of this printer needs some serious work before the next release. And furthermore they should never have released it the way it is as it wouldn't pass 5% of user acceptance tests if using wireless. There are too many complaints on this forum and others about similar problems to suggest that I am not by myself here. Dissapointing considering this is the feature that would be at the top of the list of most purchasing this model. It lets down what could of been a vg printer.
    I agree, I think if I want to get this printer working on a wirless network, I will have to set the IP address manually. The problem is the printer refuses to connect to the router now even after it connected a few days ago with no intervention. I have powered down both the router, PC, and printer without any luck yet. I will set the IP address manually first on the printer and see how it goes, then if it connects will see if the PC/router can see the printer during the SW install procedure which has failed >10 times to date.
    For now I think I will stick with Ethernet as it is no doubt much faster anyway and will try the wirless setup again in a few days when my patience grows back. Does anyone know differences in speed between USB/Wireless/Ethernet? I know this is dependant on a number of things but just interested in ball park figures here.

    Scanning in both HP Officejet 7210 and Samsung printer - the document scans but no file is generated - any ideas how to fix this?  (It worked fine before installing Mavericks)

    PS: forgot to mention: if your printer is on your wifi network, you'll have to enter your wifi password on the printer to connect it to the network before Printers & Scanners will see it.
    Sometimes a reset of the wifi system is needed too. A full set of directions would be:
    Try:
    uninstall all printer manufacturer apps and "utilities"
    go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners > Print
    control-click on your printer in the column on the left
    select "Reset Printing System..." and "reset" in the dialog that follows
    do a factory reset on your printer. You'll have to consult the printer manual for how.
    power down everything: modem, router, computer, and printer
    power up each item in turn in the same order: modem, router, computer, and printer. Let each power up completely before moving on to the next
    enter your wifi password in your printer so it can connect to the network
    go back to printers & scanners and it should see your printer and download a driver for it from Apple
    resist the temptation to install any printer manufacturer apps in the future.

    Does File > Work Offline has a check mark when that happens?
    You can try to create a new Boolean pref with the name network.manage-offline-status and set the value to false.<br />
    Right-click on the about:config page to open the right-click context menu and use "New > Boolean" to create a new Boolean pref.

  • Setting Up COLOR - Blue-ish TONE, how to fix?

    Yesterday I did a print on a high end HP Color laser printer (Blessed to have it) and it was BLUEish in tone and didn't match my display - so I went into calibration for color and sure enough, when I calibrated it was blue and now matches better - problem is, I don't like the BLUE tones and wonder how to fix.
    Also, I booted to 10.5.2 on a target disk mode and noticed there was adobe, Apple RGB and many more profiles, on 10.5.5, my default system I use the most, there was nothing. How do I get those calibrations from one boot system to here and why didn't they show up in the first place?
    Thanks

    For the most accurate calibration, third-party hardware/software is recommended ([Spyder|http://www.datacolor.eu/en] being one). You can also do it in "System Preferences - Display - Color - Calibrate...", like you did, though it is likely not to be as accurate. But if it fixes the blue tint and you're happy with the result then no need to go further. There's a whole heap of info online about calibration, such as at [Northlight Images|http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/viewing.html].
    As for importing profiles, just copy them into the HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Color/Profiles. You can then check the profiles in Applications-Utilities-ColorSync Utility.

  • My iphone time keeps messing up even though its on "set automatically" and i dont know how to fix it

    my iphone 5cs' time keeps messing up even though its set to "set automatically" the time doesnt change and i have no idea how to fix it. any help please?

    I'm having the EXACT same problem! I have a great wifi connection and it all started right after I updated it.
    I took it to the AT&amp;T store and all they said that they could do for it was a "soft restart" which is where you hold down the lock button and the home button UNTIL you see the apple logo. And I did this like 4 times and it still messes up. When I turn it off and turn it on its fine for a few minutes but it slowly starts messing up again.
    And I'm also having several glitches. Like when I just received a text message when my phone was locked I slid it and put in my pass code then it like turned off and turned on my phone. And sometimes the messages that I send disappear from my side even though I sent them. If I turn it off then back on it's there. And also sometimes when I text a person and hit send it like backs me out of the messaging system(it still sends the message right then)  and back to the home screen.
    I called 1-800-myiphone and the lady did a "soft restart" which they call a "hard restart" and it worked for like 35 minutes and then it messed up again. And my iCloud isn't backing up my stuff so it's not like I can just completely reset my phone.

  • HT1212 I have a first generation Ipad.  the App Store icon has disappeared from my homescreen.  I have tried everything that is recommended and nothing works.  One of the steps asks me to enter a passcode that I have never set up.  ??? how to fix?

    How do you retrieve the App Store Icon on a first generation ipad?

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'off' ? Is that the passcode that you are referring to, for the Restrictions screen ?
    If it is and you don't know what it is then could anybody else have set it, and do you know if it was on the iPad when you last backed up ? If it wasn't then you can restore to that backup and it should be removed. If it was on the iPad when you last backed up and you don't know what it is then the only way to remove it is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults and you can then re-sync your content back to the iPad - you won't be able to restore to the backup as that will keep the code in place.

  • When I log into a site, Firefox doesn't recognize I have logged in and asks me to log in again and again. I never get past this phase. It has to do with some setting but I don't know how to fix it.

    Firefox is not recognizing that I have logged into a web page with user name and password. It is stuck on the log in page. Where do I change the Firefox settings so it recognizes the log in and password and lets me into the site? I have had this user name and password for several months so I know it works.

  • ReportSDKPrinterException: Printer name could not be set

    I am working on testing a web application with BOE XI V 3.1.  I have the database and RAS machines setup.  I have been working on changing my app to printing through the RAS.  I have print preview and export working, but am running into issues printing to a printer.
    On the RAS which is on a virtual machine, I have a printer setup as a local printer to a tcpip port so the VM can access a printer on our network.  But when I call the clientDoc.getPrintOutputController().printReport(printOptions); I get the error message ReportSDKPrinterException: Printer name could not be set.

  • Printer setting to print in background ?

    Hello,
    Im using F110 to print cheque and advice . I have set in a way to print the advice on the default PC printer (LOCL) and the cheque on a dotmatrix printer that i have created on SPAD. When i test this advice and cheque using TEST TRANSACTION , i could print both advice and cheque at the same time on different printer at the same time. But F110 creates a background job and the jobs triggers the print.
    The setting on SPAD for my printers,
    1) DOTMATRIX(Cheque)
    device attribute -> devicetype = TWSPWIN ,
    Device class = Standard printer
    Access method -> Hot spool access method = F F:Printing on front end printer , HOST PRINTER = <My network printer name(dotmatrix)> , I have also CHECKED (X) "NO DEVICE SELECTION AT FRONTEND"
    2) 1) LOCL
    device attribute -> devicetype = TWSPWIN ,
    Device class = Standard printer
    LOCATION = <Location of the printer >.
    Access method -> Hot spool access method = F F:Printing on front end printer , HOST PRINTER = __DEFAULT.
    Im sure that 'F F:Printing on front end printer' will print when i execute in foreground . But F110 executes the print in background, hence the spool created results in error "frountend unavailable" .
    How can i handle this issue . Should i configure the printer to which i need to send advice in SAP instead of using LOCAL . If i configure what are the parameters i need to maintain w.r.t background execution as im now using 'F F:Printing on front end printer ' on access method.
    Please advice .
    Thanks,
    Jeeva.

    Hi Jeeva,
    I cannot give you the details for the printer configuration but I am sure that you can not print using printer LOCL in background. In background this will always error out as is your case at the moment. You need to define the printer in SPAD.
    You can try the access method as L. We have a printer with similar config used for background printing.

  • HP Laserjet P2035n is set to print double-sided, but I can't change it in the preferences

    Last week i downloaded and printed a PDF file. Since then, my HP Laserjet 2035n is set to print double-sided. Here are the details.
    I'm running an HP Pavilion Laptop with Windows 7 Home.
    The printer is set up as a network printer.
    When I try to print something, it stops after one page waiting for me to re-feed the paper manually to print on the other side.
    It's only this laptop that's messed up. My other computer prints fine
    When I go to Printers, right click on the 2035n, and select "Printer Properties" and look at the bottom of the General tab, it reads under Features "Double Sided: Yes"
    If I then click 'Preferences..." and go to the Finishing tab, under Document Options, the box "Print On Both Sides (Manually)" box is unchecked.
    Here's what I've tried:
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer
    I reinstalled the printer drivers
    I have tried reinstalling under a different name
    Any suggestions? Can someone tell me where the printer preferences file is so I can manually delete it then reinstall the printer drivers? Is there a tool for the P2035N to uninstal EVERYTHING related to it?
    Thanks.
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
