Printing from In Design is not correct

Product:- Adobe CS6 Design Standard
When we print InDesign file using the printer Ricoh Aficio SP C811DN it prints out the page with the error below instead of printing the required data.
error: undefined
Offending Command: Bfl. mo
STACK:
111.001
When i contact Ricoh support they informed that InDesign is using the windows PPD while printing the page instead of using Ricoh PPD. we need check with Adobe support that which PPD is required to print correctly from indesign or how to fix this. Any support or suggestions will be appreciated.

The printer driver you point to is specifically not for use with Windows 7! It was designed for Windows'9x, Windows NT4, Windows 2000, and 32-bit Windows XP!
There is no such beast as a “Windows PPD.” InDesign and other Adobe applications only use the PPD associated with the particular PostScript printer driver instance, nothing else!!! What Ricoh may be referring to may be the difference between installing a printer driver using the Add Printer wizard specifying your particular printer model versus using a driver installer provided directly by Ricoh for the printer model.
We would recommend that you uninstall the printer driver instance for that Ricoh printer and then install a new one using the latest driver installer provided by Ricoh for your particular printer model.
Using a generic PPD such as you have will have nasty side effects. That PPD is for a monochrome PostScript language level 2 printer with very large unprintable area around the page borders, few paper sizes, and very few paper handling options. Don't use it!

  • HP officejet Pro 8100 will print from an Iphone but not from my windows laptop

    HP officejet Pro 8100 will print from an Iphone but not from my windows laptop. I get an error stating "unable to communicate with printer"

    Hi Melatina66,
    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I understand that when trying to print from your laptop that you get a communication error message.
    To better assist you, would you please provide some further information:
    1)       How is the printer connected (USB cable, ethernet or wireless)?
    2)      When you installed the printer on your laptop did you set it up with a USB cable?  If  yes, did you switch the connection type on the laptop from USB cable to ethernet/wireless?
    3)      What version of Windows operating system are you running on the laptop (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8, etc)?
    4)      When printing from your iPhone are you using Apple's AirPrint or HP's ePrint app?
    Thank you.

    Hi voltric2014,
    If you are on Windows, you can download and install the CreatePDF Desktop Printer, which would allow you to "print" to PDF from Word. You'll find a link to the installer on the CreatePDF page at https://cloud.acrobat.com. Here are the instructions for installing it: Using Adobe PDF Pack
    Please let us know if you have additional questions.

  • Very Frustrating! Printing from Preview or Photoshop - not happening again!

    It's Christmas time, and I'm printing my home made cards... so I've done all the artwork, printed a test from Photoshop, and that was fine... make some changes, and now it won't print! Exported it all as a PDF, try printing from Preview, and the same thing happens.
    Same thing happened a couple of weeks ago, but I can't remember how I fixed it! The job comes up in the printer spool, and then vanishes. Looking at the printer history log, it thinks it's printed it, but nothing. I can do a test page from the printer dialog, I can print from the web, but not from Photoshop or Preview
    Help!
    This is driving me nuts I tell you!
    Cheers

    First, do you have the original PSD to go back to (and if you don't, you now know to never kill off your source). Second, the JPG now has no fonts embedded, textures etc are irrelevant. So what is the resolution? Check out the rez of your printer and make sure the document's rez is no higher. Generally, anything more than 600dpi for home use is wasted, though some of the really high quality inkjets can go much higher. If your jpeg is very high rez (or if its dimensions are really big) resize it to be exactly the print size and try again.

  • Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past and have tried a hard reset but it can no longer find the printer.

    Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past. I have tried a hard reset but it still cannot find the printer.

    In addition to rebooting the router and the iPad, I would reset the printer as well. Unplug the printer from power and do the same with the router. Leave the router unplugged for about 30 seconds. Plug the router in first and let it totally start up, plug the printer in again, and then reboot/reset the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that doesn't work, you can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. Your WiFi passwords, location services, device preferences all have to be re-entered. You will not lose any data or media whatsoever.

  • I can print from my iPhone but not from my iPad

    I Can print from my iPhone, but not from my iPad.  The options
    select a printer and number of copies are active.  The print
    button is not active ( hot ).

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

    I can print from my Mac but not from my iPad ,any ideas?

    you can read here about airprint

    if the printer don't support that then you need to find a printing app in app store
    which will act the role as printer driver for the device to speak with the printer

  • My wireless hp 5660 envy printer prints from my iPad but not my mac book pro

    I can print from my ipad but not from my mac book pro, when I try to print from my Mac Book Pro the page just comes out blank...

    Hello @leafgirl ,
    Welcome to the HP forum.
    I understand you can't print from your Mac book pro. I would like to help.
    Since your iPad can print I think it is a software issue.
    Go into system preferences and remove the printer.
    I would also uninstall the HP software if any is present.
    You should then verify and repair the disk permissions.
    Then do an Apple update.
    Reboot your Mac book pro.
    Then install the HP software.

    If you need instructions on any of those steps, please let me know.

  • Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade.  I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade.  I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)

    Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade.  I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)
    Are others having the same problems?

    Try this. Worked for me.
    - turn off your router
    - turn off you Mac's after removing all available printers
    - turn off all iDevices
    - do a factory reset of your printer remove all cables min. 30 sec.
    - turn on your router first
    - ran the network set up wizard
    - give your printer also a new name like "DeskJet 2015"
       Something which you don't have used before.
    - turn on your Mac's and add your printer
    - turn on your iDevices at least.
    Should work after these steps.
    It worked for me including all iDevices.
    iOS and Yosemite

  • I can not print from Firefox, Firefox is not responding

    I can not print from Firefox on one PC in my office. At one time printing was operable from Firefox on this PC, the user told me about one month ago Firefox would no longer print.
    I went to the users PC - Windows XP Professional SP3 - Firefox opens no problem, I can go to any website, but when I click on the print icon, or file, print, nothing happens. I do not see the print icon in the task bar which shows you something is spooling, printing, I open Task Manager and I see Firefox is Not responding. I must end task.
    We can print anything else on the PC, Internet Explorer 8 prints successfully, just Firefox will not print.
    I also uninstalled the network printer, re-installed. Connected to another network printer, Firefox still will not print.
    I also uninstalled the latest version of Firefox on the PC 15.0.1, went back a few versions and Firefox still will not print.
    Can someone assist why Firefox refuses to print and when you try to print Firefox goes to a Not responding status ?
    Thanks,
    Bob

  • HP Officejet 4500 G510n-z Wireless connection prints from Windows Vista but not from Windows 7

    HP Officejet 4500 G510n-z printer appears to be connected to my Dell Notebook running Windows 7 on the HP Solution Center page but does not print.Documents just get stuck in the que. It was printing then it wasn't then it was then it wasn't. The printer works when I print from an older notebook running Vista. The last time this happened, I uninstalled and reinstalled HP software and that didn't seem to help. Then, for some inexplicable reason, printing started working. Now it has stopped working again.I can scan from the Windows 7 Notebook but no printing. I've tried all of the troubleshooting tools I could find without success. Thanks for trying to help.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hello-
    It could be caused by a couple things :
    1. Firewall on PC or in router.
    2. wireless interference (ie microwave, cordless phone base @ 2.4 Ghz)
    3. distance from router
    4. corrupt print driver.
    Turn off any firewalls you have and move anything that can cause interference away from router.
    If none of the above resolves issue, I'll have you install another print driver.
    Click on start.
    Go to Devices and Printers.
    Click on Add a Printer.
    Add a Local printer. Create a new Port and choose "Standard TCP/IP port.
    Hit Next.
    Type in 192.168.1.12 in the Hostname or IP address box. (uncheck "Query the printer" box)
    Hit next.
    When the Printer List opens up, click on windows update. ( this will take a few mins)
    After the box shows up, Pick HP (not Hewlett Packard) on the Left and pick "Deskjet 990c" on the Right.
    Click next, set as default, and finish.
    Try to print using the Deskjet 990c.

  • Printing from iphone/ipad does not work after ios5 upgrade

    have a Brother HL-2140 that would print and show up as the "printer" when printing from an iPhone/iPad thru an Airport Extreme. Everything worked fine till upgrading to ios5 ... now the option for printing is replaced with an "no airprint printer found" ... meanwhile I can still print through the network wirelessly through multiple MacBook Pros and MacBooks around the house. I have re-installed the driver from the Bother website ... I have the Printer Sharing on ... the network allows wireless printing from laptops ... just NOT from iPhones and iPads.

    Today's iOS 6.1 update fixed the printer problem.
