Printing landscape pdf to Linux CUPS shared printer

I'm having a problem printing landscape pdf documents from Preview to printers on my Linux CUPS server. Documents print portrait style, with the right side of the document cut off. This occurs in both 10.4.11 and 10.5.2.
Using Adobe Reader or printing the pdf from the command line using lpr work correctly to the shared printer.
Printing directly to the printer (not through the server) is the only way Preview prints it right.
My CUPS server is:
Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy
CUPS 1.3.7

I'm having the same problem. I have a Lexmark x9350 that is shared through Airport Extreme.

Trouble printing landscape PDF

I am having difficulty printing a pdf document that is in a landscape orientation. The first page prints correctly, but subsequent pages either print lower and to the left on the page or they print in a reduced size and to the lower left. I am able to duplicate this issue in both Adobe Acrobat 11.0.05 as well as Adobe Reader. I do not have the issue if I print using Preview on Mac OS X. I am using Acrobat and Reader on Windows 7, 32 bit.

Some of docs are not created by me but are available as studies on
websites. On our docs, we import into InDesign. No, it does not print
correctly if I select landscape rather than auto. And sometimes I select a
page range to print and the command is ignored and prints the entire doc.

Printing from Windows 8 to a shared printer on a Windows 7 machine

WE have a a user that has a laser printer on A windows 7 machine that others in the office can access EXCEPT the one person on a Windows 8 machine. We have tried everything, but cannot get her to print to this printer. Says it cannot be found. What does
Windows 8 need to see a printer on a Win 7 workstation. She does have access to network printers and her own.
Thanks.

We have the same kind of problem but a bit different.
Dell Printer (used for years shared on a network) was moved to our Windows 7 machine plugged in via USB. We only use a plain workgroup with no Domain as we also have Macs on the network.
I have Macs using shared printer, a Windows XP using the shared printer, and even Windows 7 under Parallels on the Macs using the shared printer no problem.
I had the lone Windows 8 laptop using the shared printer but then it just stopped working. So I deleted it and now when I try to add it is want credentials and none work. It will not connect to the shared printer on the Windows 7 machine.
I have Windows 7 (which also has a couple shared drives that do work) set for No Homegroup and No Password for sharing - pretty much open as we are behind a Cisco Firewall to the outside. No firewalls on the pcs.
Not sure where to go from here...

Anyone know how to print from Win2K or WinXP to shared printer on iMac?

Help! Anyone know how to print from Win2K or WinXP to shared printer on iMac? I have a new IMac hosting a Canon iP4300, a pc running W2K & a pc running WXPsp2. All computers recognize each other and the iP4300 on the network and can share files. All Mac "Windows Sharing" & "Printer Sharing" preferences sre set correctly. Apple says the printer must be configured on the Windows computers as an SMB/CIFS network printer using a Postscript driver. I can find lots of pages on the net telling me I what needs to be done, but nothing stating how to do it. All the info I've found is either overly simplistic and or relates to the 10th dang of enterprise server administration. Would VERy much appreciate any help at all.

Printing from your iPad1 to a shared printer

I have a usb printer connected to my desktop computer and my desktop computer is connected to my network via a network cable. My printer is shared on the desktop but some apps cannot see it. Primarily from Pages where i need it most. I have the Print Central app installed on my iPad which prints fine to the printer. So why cant i get Good Reader and Pages to see and print to the printer?
Please help.

How do I print a pdf form that has no print button?

How do I print a pdf document that has no print button or name? It is a Florida form for handicapped drivers.

When you open a PDF in Reader or Acrobat there will be a Print toolbar button and a File > Print menu item. Other PDF viewers will have much the same.

Printing from Lion to Linux CUPS server problem

Hi,
Our printing infrastructure is built to use a Linux CUPS server. This server shares about 200 printers, and all the Linux and Mac clients use it to print (with the BROWSEPOLL option set in the client cups.conf file).
Everything works fine with all Mac OS versions except with Lion.
On the Lion clients, the dialog with the server seems to work : printers are detected, and we can print using command line "lpr -P <printer> <file>".
But we can't print with any application like Safari and Firefox.
In system.log we have :

[NSInvalidArgumentException: -[__NSCFDictionary setObject:forKey:]: attempt to insert nil value (key: printer-location)]
Apparently the Lion version of CUPS doesn't understand how your server specifies the location of the printer. That's about all I can tell you. You might find more information in the CUPS error log on the client.

Print to pdf in excel does not print full workbook

I have 18 separate sheets in one workbook. I need to print all of the sheets into one pdf.
When I go to "Print" and "Save to PDF", the resulting PDF only includes the last 15 sheets of the full workbook.
I always select "Entire Workbook", or make the range from Page 1-18, but it will still only save the last 15 pages every time.
Are there other settings I need to change? Ideas anybody?

Hi, I never use Ms Apps, but I think I remember something about Page Breaks in Word/Excel causing PDF problems... does quite explain the 1st three missing thoigh... unless it's maybe over writing them?
Can You Print to PDF a single page #1 & such, then combine the 3 indivual ones with the 15 page one in Preview?

If I open a PDF file on my computer I get this error:

How to print from a macbook to a shared printer hook up to pc

Hi,
How I could be able to print wireless from my macbook to a shared printer hook up to a pc. The printer is a DELL 1320C and the pc is a DELL Inspiron. Please help me out with this issue. I do all my stuffs in my mac and when I to print my job, I get a nightmare.

As long as you have a wireless router connected to your Dell and the printer is set as a shared printer...Just go and print a document and it will ask you what printer you want to use. Use finder to locate the printer from your Dell as it should show up under "shared". I think thats all i had to do when i had a Sony Vio and wanted to print from my MacBook. (You may need to log in as a guest to gain access to the printer.) Its been a while having since upgraded to a new iMac.

Is it possible to print on a mac to a shared printer on a Windows desktop?

I have my windows XP desktop connected to a new HP printer which prints fine. I have my DSL internet connection split by using a router and on one port I connect it to my Airport express. The internet on both machines works fine. However, can I print from my powerbook to the printer that is connected to my Windows XP desktop? Note that the powerbook is connected to the network wirelessly via Airport Express which in turn is connected to my wired router. Thanks
-Paul
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

The short answer is yes. You must share the printer on the XP desktop and then add the printer on your powerbook in System Prefs->Print & Fax->Set up printers->Add and from the drop down list select Windows Printing. Rendezvous may work as well. I'm currently doing this on my network. I assume you can access files on your pc from the powerbook with the current setup. This doesn't have much to do with printer sharing other than providing verification the powerbook and pc can talk to each other.

Printing from wireless MacBook to iMac shared printer

I have an HP PSC 2350 connected to an iMac in my office. I am using my MacBook via a Linksys router, in another room, and would like to print to the PSC 2350. The iMac and printer are turned on - but the printer does not appear on the MacBook. Something simple, I'm sure - but I need a little help! Thanks!

I have had a similar issue. First I plugged the printer into my macbook and made sure I could print directly to the printer. After this worked, I tried printing via the wireless network. Things work with this caveat. When I print for the first time after starting up the macbook and select print from an application ( say MS Word,) I have to select 'add printer' under 'printer' in the dialogue box. It searches a little bit and then the shared printer shows up. After this is shows up as an available printer until I restart my computer.

Cannot print a PDF using the Oracle APEX print feature

Hi,
I work from a Wondows 7 workstation.
I have Adobe FlashPlayer 11 installaed on that workstation.
I can open a regular *.pdf file.
I have the following configuration for my Oracle APEX application:
Report Printing:
Print Server Protocol: Advanced (requires Oracle BI Publisher)
Print Server Protocol: HTTP
Print Server Host Address: the IP address of my BI Publisher server
Print Server Port: 9704 (from installation of BI)
Print Server Script: /xmlpserver/convert
On the page (that is an interactive report) that I want to print, it is configured with:
Download:
PDF option is checked.
When I click on Action -> Download -> PDF for this page, I get the error:
report_customers_region.pdf file can not be opened because the file type is not supported or because it is damaged (because, for example as an e-mail attachment is not sent and correctly decoded)
Does someone has an idea what the problem is and where I should investigate further?
Thanks and Kind Regards.

Well, is the PDF actualyl allowing to be printed? Check File --> Properties in Reader/ Acrobat.

When I print a Word document to a shared printer, print preview looks fine but the printed page has too much blank space at the top and doesn't print the bottom few lines.

When I print a Word for Mac document to a shared printer (that is connected to my iMac) from my Macbook Pro, print preview looks fine but the printed page has too much blank space at the top and doesn't print the bottom few lines. I have tried to adjust the margins and the page setup settings but to no avail. It used to print fine until recently. Is there a way to fix it so that the printer prints what print preview shows?

I should add that when I e-mail this document to myself and print it directky from the iMac, it prints fine.

Bonjour je m'excuse beaucoup pour poster dans un premier temps en anglais. Je ne savais pas que c'était possible en français.
Voici mon problème: J'ai une imprimante matricielle de type EPSON LX-350 et je souhaite imprimer des fichier PDF (Adobe reader). Mais la police qu'elle sorte est différente de celle attendue après impression et pourtant avec un fichier Word ou Excel je n'ai pas ce problème de format de police.

Existe t'il quelqu'un qui l'a déja essayer et avec quelle marque d'imprimante.
Merci de votre disponibilité.
