Printing error on Laserjet 4200 PCLXL with Adobe Reader 8.1.2

While printing on our HP LaserJet 4200 with Adobe Reader 8.1.2, here is the error printed by my printer:
PCL XL error
Subsystem: KERNEL
Error: IllegalOperatorSequence
Operator: SetPageScale
Position: 3
I use PCL6 driver and if I use the PCL5 one, I only get a portion of my 11/17 pdf. The PS driver seams to be OK. I didn't have this problem in Adobe Reeader 7.0.8. And I don't have this problem on older LaserJet printers (4000 or 4100) or newer's (4250).
With PCL 5 or Post Script, it kinda print, but Adobe Reader is not able to get the write size of paper. If I have a 8½/14 or 11/17 document, It can only print in 8½/11 correctly unless I go in printer properties and select manually the size of paper that I want to print on (or the size of the document). I can't keep that resolution because it's to difficult for most users and that they'll keep asking why their document doesn't print in the format it was built in.
Also, with PCL6, when I choose the write size of paper in the printer's properties, it prints correctly.
I tried to update the driver on our server, but the paper type of all our 4200 switched to "Etiquette" and we didn't want to pass on all our computers to reconfigure it back to "Normal paper". I also tried to update the firmware on another of our 4200s, but the problem persisted.
Can you help me to find out what's going on in Adobe Reader 8.1.2 and how I can solve that problem??

Hi,
We are also struggling with the same problem after upgrading the portal to NW04s SPS15.  It is consuming 2 to 3 min for opening the PDF form in ESS under Travel & Expenses.
We are also with same version of Adobe i.e.8.1.2
Still waiting for the solution, 
Regards,
Venu

  • Invalid pointer when printing from Internet Explorer 64 bit with Adobe Reader 11.0.7

    If I print a PDF file in Internet Explorer 8 or 9 64 bit with Adobe Reader 11.0.7 on a Windows 2008 R2 server with the File --> Print (or CTRL+P) option, the file won't print. It generates the error "Er is een onjuiste parameter" (Dutch version). I can print the PDF file with the Adobe Reader option. The 32 bits version of IE8 or IE9 works fine. Also the Adobe Reader versions before 11.0.7 works fine. One fix in 11.0.7 is "64 bit IE plugin - required to run IE 11 with Enhanced Protected Mode on in Win 7". Is this the reason that IE8 or IE9 64 bits doesn't work anymore with the CTRL+P option?

    You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.htmlThen, you can download the full offline Reader installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • Unable to print drawing properly in Acrobat - however with Adobe Reader no problem !!!

    Got a pdf (converted ACAD drawing) of which certain sections appear hardly readable on screen (grey, distorted ??)
    Tried all print options (colour, B&W, save PDF again, check rersolutions, contacted supplier of printer etc.) I could think of but no improvements
    By mistake I printed the file direct from explorer view and amazingly enough TEXT OKAY !
    Printed original file to CutePDF_writer and - once again - section could be read without any problem
    Thought I give the free Adobe Reader a try and once again: no problem at all
    Adobe Acrobat is fully updated - beside a Java flattening scripts I have not had anything modified.
    Strang situation: only with the professional tool I am using very often I am unable to print as required.
    Looks to me the file to be printed has some fonts not recognized / supported / missing in my Acrobat software?
    When yes how can I check & resolve ?
    Actually puts me in a delicate position now - help urgently needed !
    Assume I have to add fonts ? But got no warning anything missing...
    And: should a professional software tool not at least match options / features of a free version ?
    Added comment:
    It's even getting more weird
    Printing on an other printer (Minolta instead of Canon) NO PROBLEM AT ALL
    Thanks for help in advance

  • Error in Printing with Adobe Reader 11.0.2

    I just upgraded Adobe Reader from X to XI on my older Windows XP desktop. When I opened a PDF file and tried to print it, I got a pop up box saying: Prop Res DLL Not Loaded with an OK button. I could not get rid of the error mesage until I closed down Adobe Reader repeatedly. Version X worked correctly so I uninstalled XI and resinstalled it from Adobe's Reader Web Site but stiull get the same error. Any suggestions?

    I did go to the HP website, downloaded the latest drivers, and corrected the problem. Thanks for the help.

  • Pdfs print fine with preview, not at all with adobe reader

    this is a relatively new issue that popped up sometime in the last month or so. when i try to print any pdf document with adobe reader, to my HP laserjet P1505, i get the following error:
    /usr/libexec/cups/filter/pstoraster failed
    if i open up the same document with preview, it prints fine. i updated my printer software, and reinstalled adobe reader with no change. what gives?

    here's what popped up in that log just now when the print failed:
    thanks for looking at this!

  • Printing Problems with Adobe Reader 10.0.1

    I need some help on printing with Adobe Reader X:
    we use Multi Funktional Printer from HP, they have some finishing options like Booklet Printing or stapling.
    when printing 1 copy of a document it is attached correctly, at 2 copys of a document (stapled or booklet), the documents stapled together. 
    With Adobe Reader 9.4 it was working fine, since Update on 10.0 / 10.0.1 we have the error on 2 or more copys of a document they are stapled togehter, so they are useless!

    I have the same issue. I searched and found your April 18 post. Since it has not been answered, I posted my own also.
    Maybe one of us can get the answer.

  • How can I print just a part of the page and not the full page with Adobe Reader v 10.1.2?

    how can I print just a part of the page and not the full page with Adobe Reader v 10.1.2? I need to print a engineering print with lot of information but information is too small in letter size and I don't have a plotter.

    Two ways to print a portion of a page: zooming or using the Snapshot Tool.
    ZOOMING:
    Zoom into the area you want to print.
    Click the Print icon.
    Under "Pages to Print", make sure "Current view" is selected under "More options" (you may need to click "More options" to open it).
    If you aren't satisfied with the preview, try clicking "Fit" under the Size button.
    SNAPSHOT
    Choose Edit > Take A Snapshot.
    Drag a rectangle around the area you want to print. 
    Click the Print icon.
    Under "Pages to Print", make sure that "Selected Graphic" is selected under "More options".
    To enlarge the snapshot to fit the sheet of paper, choose "Fit" under the Size button.
    Hope this helps!

  • Cannot embed pdfs in MS Word doc which are PDF Version 1.3 (Acrobat 4.x) [This is associated with Adobe Reader 9]. Getting 'program not installed' error.

    Cannot embed pdfs in Word doc which are PDF Version 1.3 (Acrobat 4.x) [This is associated with Adobe Reader 9]. Getting 'program not installed' error.
    Pdfs with other versions are okay:
    Tested successfully with Adobe Pro 9 (Version 1.5 (Acrobat 6.x)), Reader X (Version 1.4 (Acrobat 5.x)) and XI (Version 1.6 (Acrobat 7.x))
    Also cannot open embedded pdfs which have been embedded with this version (getting a similar error).
    Importantly I have removed/disabled all security options in Adobe Reader, following numerous internet suggestions from Adobe and elsewhere. This does not fix the problem.
    Currently the work around is to re-save the pdf with something other than Adobe Reader 9 (so the version updates), but we would prefer not to do this for all the old pdfs we have.
    Thank you,
    Louise.

    Could you please email me the document on which you are seeing this issue at [email protected] ?
    Please mention the forum thread link as well in the mail for the reference.

    If someone can help me
    Thanks !

    Hi Ajlan,
    To fix my problem, i uninstalled adobe reader X with "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool", rebooted the server, installed Adobe Reader XI and rebooted again.
    For some users, this fix the problem but with some others i had to define Adobe Reader by default again.
    I tried without use "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool" before and adobe reader X wasn't really uninstall.
    Thanks,

  • Error message with Adobe Reader

    I get an error message saying that the application is trying to shut down in an unusal manner when I try to open a file with Adobe Reader.

    Which version of Adobe Reader is it?
    If the file protected or something?
    Also did you try with different pdf files, from different places to see if it is specific to a certain pdf document or to all pdf documents?
    Also, try uninstalling / reinstalling.. or repair the installation.
    Cheers

  • File does not begin with '%pdf' error with adobe reader 10.1.5 onwards

      In our web application we are using activePDF toolkit (3rd party component) to fill up carrier forms on the fly which are PDF files.
    The output file processed by the above library works fine when opened with adobe reader 8, 9 and10 on end user’s browser (IE); however, it gives below error when opening with adobe reader 11.
    Till now, we have tried different settings at IIS level, Internet explorer e.t.c. suggested on different internet posts. However, we are still facing the problem.
    While analyzing this we have come across following link
    http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-error-1015-11001-update.html
    According to this adobe 10.1.5 onward file should only start with "%pdf". If file start with other than this we get file corrupted message.
    Before we can communicate this message to client we want to confirm this for experts. Please let me know my assumption is right?

    Rahti - i'm having the same issue but I not familiar with the steps outlined in the Adobe link below
    http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-error-1015-11001-update.html
    Would you be able to help with how I can navigate to this on my PC to correct it for me.
    Thanks.

  • Error: "There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader..." What is .MST file??

    I get the following error message and I looked it up in the knowledge base, and there was a solution for fixing the error message. However, I have no idea what they are talking about. I have downloaded the Customization Wizard, but I have no clue what the following means:
    A) Create a new transform
    B) Open your previously created .mst file
    I went into the C Drive and opened Program Files. I found the Adobe folder, but I couldn't find an .mst file anywhere. Am I completely lost??? Below is the knowledge base solution:
    Error: "There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader..." when you view a PDF in a browser (Acrobat and Adobe Reader 8 on Windows)
    Issue
    When you try to view a PDF in Internet Explorer, you see the error message, "There is a problem With Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again." When you click OK to the error, the PDF opens outside of the browser.
    Reason
    When you use the Adobe Customization Wizard to create a transform for Adobe Acrobat 8 or Adobe Reader 8, and you choose the option to "Make Acrobat the default viewer if both Acrobat and Reader are installed", or "Make Reader the default viewer if both Acrobat and Reader are installed", an error occurs if the computer does not have Acrobat or Reader already installed.
    Solution
    Create a new transform and re-deploy Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
    Start the Adobe Customization Wizard 8.
    Open your previously created .mst file.
    Under Installation Options, select "Installer will decide which product will be the default".
    Save the transform.
    Re-deploy Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
    Additional Information
    When you create a transform in Adobe Customization Wizard 8, the installation options allow you to set the default viewer for PDF files. "Installer will decide which product will be the default" is the default setting and should be used when you are uncertain if the target machine has a version of Acrobat or Adobe Reader that won't be removed as part of the installation process. When installed silently using this option, Acrobat will always be configured as the default viewer.

    I think you are headed down the wrong path. The Customization Wizard is what you use to push out Reader to several hundred computers. An MST is a package or transform file that is used to accomplish this task. Unless you are an IT person and are trying a deployment of Reader this solution does not fit your situation.

  • Poor print performance with Adobe Reader 11.0.06 on XenApp 6.5/Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

    Hi community,
    here are informations to our environment:
    Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1 - mspatchlevel 05/2014
    XenApp 6.5 RP3 + Hotfix_XA650R01W2K8R2X64003 + Hotfix_XA650R03W2K8R2X64013
    AcroRead.msi + 11001.msp + 11003.msp + 11004.msp + 11006.msp
    Network: 10GB
    Problem:
    After migration to Adobe Reader 11.0.06 our users are complain about long printingtimes with PDF documents.
    What i have done:
    Test printing two different documents from local storage an network (dfs,nfs) - notice the printingtime in our environment depends not on used storage!
    1. 310 pages document with text (7,023KB)
    Adobe Acrobat XI on Samsung ML-451x 501x Series driver Version 3.11.39.00.58.01
    Average 52 seconds (done 5 same printjobs with same dokument) to print document in spooler.
    Change printer to:
    Adobe Acrobat XI on Samsung CLP-770 Series PCL6 Version 3.10.57:76
    Average 46 seconds (done 5 same printjobs with same dokument) to print document in spooler.
    2. 4 pages document with grafics (4,438KB)
    Adobe Acrobat XI on Samsung ML-451x 501x Series driver Version 3.11.39.00.58.01
    Average 45 seconds (done 5 same printjobs with same dokument) to print document in spooler.
    Change printer to:
    Adobe Acrobat XI on Samsung CLP-770 Series PCL6 Version 3.10.57:76
    Average 39 seconds (done 5 same printjobs with same dokument) to print document in spooler.
    Befor migration we have Server 2003 SP2 and XenApp 4.5FR6 with Adobe Reader 9.5.5
    I did the same testing but the time to print was much faster!
    1. 15 Seconds to print 310 pages document
    2. 28 seconds to print 4 pages document with grafics
    Any ideas to make printing faster on WindowsServer 2008R2 with Adobe Reader?
    Next step is testing the old version from reader on 2008R2 but on security aspects is this not the way...
    Thx
    Thomas

    Hi Pat,
    thx for your answer :-)
    i will try the older one 9.5.5 and the newest 11.0.07
