Printing only changed pages

In my department, we produce large technical manuals that are distributed to users around the world. When small changes are made to the manuals, we only distribute the changed pages (including the back side of the changed page since the documents are printed double-sided). Is there an automated way to only print the changed pages with the necessary back pages?

Rick Quatro at http://www.frameexpert.com has a plugin that will print only changed pages; I don't see it listed on his website at the moment, but if you contact him he'll be able to give you more details.
Rick's very, very familiar with the complications of dealing with changed pages in FM.

HP 6510 printing only blank pages after changing print cartridges

Hi,
My HP 6510 is printing only blank pages after I installed new print ink cartridges. I tried cleaning the print heads, aligning the printer... which did result in some pages printing with a little color (but it seemed "off" to me). That said, when I try to print a regular document from my PC it only prints a blank page.
I can't seem to figure this one out on my own - please help!
Thanks!
Chloe

The document here may help resolve black not printing on your Photosmart 6510. Be sure the cartridges are vented as shown in solution two.
Is your printer still in warranty? You can check with HP's warranty tool here.

Try one of these:
1/ In Adobe, deselect "Choose Paper based on PDF size" - you can leave the "Auto Rotate and Center" on.
2/ In Adobe, go into Advanced and choose "Print as Image".
3/ If this is a Canon H1 Fiery RIP, go into Printer Properties, Printing Preferences, Layout, Rotate 180degrees and choose "Large Paper Only."

My HP LaserJet 1018 has started printing only blank pages.

My HP LaserJet 1018 has started printing only blank pages.
Help?
Using Windows XP (Home Version)
Product # CB419A

Could be a number of issues. First could be a bad or not connecting transfer rollers which moves the toner from the drum to the paper. Only way to test is a half test by putting paper on the manual tray and printing a self test. When the back edge enters the printer, open the toner door to stop printing. Remove the toner and flip back the cover over the toner drum to see if there is any image on the drum. If image is present then it could be transfer roller issues. Use the service manual and look under engine diagnostics in the index and it will direct you to a page that shows how to perform an engine test. Do the test to see if you get a sheet of paper with lines on it. If you get lines, then the issue could be the formatter. If no lines and the shutter has been removed then I would think you are having high voltage issues. You may have to bring the printer in for service.

Page breaks in form - can't print only one page?

Hi guys
This might be a really simple question - but how do I insert page breaks into my form?
I have 8 pages in my document, and it is showing me this, so there seems to be no issue until I try to print only one page, and the whole document prints out.
Is there an easy fix to this?
Cheers
Jess

Hi,
how are you printing? Control+P? File > Print? or a Print button?
In any case the print command should bring up a print dialog, where you can set the pages that you want Acrobat to print. By default it is set to 'All' pages.
Hope that helps,
Niall

How to publish only changed pages

I am using Dreamweaver CS3...When I publish to my
Apache/Linux server it appears to re-publish all pages that have
already been published. I only want to publish CHANGED pages. Is
there a setting in Dreamweaver CS3 that will cause only CHANGED
pages to be published?
Thanks!

Highlight the file you want to publish and click the up
facing arrow. This will put your file to your server as long as you
have your server defined in the site management.
Another way to have it done automaticly is to go to site
management and highlight your site name and click edit. Select
Advanced, click on Remote Info on the left. Under the Server
Compatibility button check the Automatically upload files to server
on save. Click ok.
Now when ever you save a file Dreamweaver will save it and up
load it at the same time. It will ask you if you want to save
dependant files also. So if you made changes to the css or anything
else, click yes.

Can I print only odd pages or even pages?

Hi,
I would like to be able to print only odd pages, then turn the stack over and print the even pages. I often need to reprint manuals from pdf files for my clients. Some need to be printed this way. My old PC would do this. The tech support at HP says the problem is the Mac printer software doesn't have the option to print only odd or even pages. -Kentar

Hi kentar,
You wrote:
"I often need to reprint manuals from pdf files for my clients. "
You can do this with Adobe Reader.
Simply press Command-P to summon the Print dialogue box, and then in the Subset box, select Odd pages from the drop-down menu.
Check the box for 'Reverse Pages' if you like.
I generally print the odd pages first in reverse order, and then just turn the stack over and then print even pages in forward order.

My Photosmart C4780 all in one printer which is connected by USB to my MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8 prints only blank pages, and no text; I have turned it on and off; disconnected and reconnected; uninstalled the HP software and reloaded and updated drivers, firmware and patches.

Printing only 1 page not whole document?

When you are proofing a page, you must remember to check the page range button as it defaults to all after each page is printed. How do you change this default? We have printed many copies when we are thinking that only one page will go. We toggle between idd5 and pagemaker 7. When you print a page in pagemaker 7.0 it keeps printing that page until you select another option. We are reluctant to move up because of lack of compatability with our print devices and the ppd's. Thanks

Perhaps some knows of a script that can do this. Have you tried asking on the InDesign scripting forum?
Have you considered exporting to PDF, extracting the single pages, printing them from Acrobat or Reader? With full Acrobat, you can create a document from all open PDF files, then you can print that collection of pages from Acrobat. Another approach would be to placed the saved single-page PDFs into a new InDesign file and printing that file.
Yes, it's extra steps to create one, but if you have many singles to print, collecting them in a file would let you print as many singles as are in your assembled document in one print command.

Adobe Reader 9 prints only one page

We have a Windows lab that we just updated to Reader 9, and now are having problems with some PDF's and only being able to print the first page. We first uninstalled version 8 before installing 9, and all the computers were cast with Symantec Ghost and we are using Deep Freeze.
It seems to be an issue with postscript printers, as we don't have the problem if you print to a file (XPS document writer) and then proceed to print from there. We've tested it with the IE plugin and also the application and still get the same result. The problem doesn't happen if you select "print as image" in the Adobe printing preferences. However, to set this as the default action it seems that you have to set it in the registry for every printer that is installed.
Does anyone know of any fixes for this? Thanks.

New iMac with OS x Lion. Printing envelopes w/ Address book makes a second blank envelope. Drivers up to date. Have to mark print only first page. Had no problem with Snow Leopard. How to correct.

I recently purchased a new iMac with OS x Lion. Previously was using a four year old iMac with snow Leopard. I have three HP printers with up to date drivers for Lion. When I try to print an envelope from Address Book I have two problems:
1) I have to change the orientation to vertical to get the proper margins, which I never had to do before and
2) It prints a second blank envelope unless I tell it to only print the first page.
Neither of the problems occurred with my previous iMac/w Snow Leopard and it appears to be a Lion/HP software incompatibility. I have worked with a Apple supervisor (Case # 316225300) for hours and finally reinstalled the operating system to no avail.
I do I correct both problems???

Contact HP and ask them to write better drivers for Lion. Find a printer that is more compatible with Lion. I've not printed envelopes with Lion before, though I've had no difficulty with either Epson Artisan 810 or Canon MX700 for regular printing. Sometimes open source drivers also work better than manufacturer drivers. See this FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/printersx.html
While many open source drivers won't give you duplex or printer diagnostics, at least they may work better for other features.
Lastly, I've often found for a more consistent print, saving as PDF, and then printing from Preview can sometimes be the best work around. Someone in the Mac OS X Technologies forum might be able to help you write an automator script to do this in one fell swoop, if you find it works better for your needs.

Printing only one page problem

Hi,
I have a printable class that needs to print some text only on 1 page.
The thing is that when I hit print the printer prints 3 pages:
page 1 - with correct content
page 2 - empty page
page 3 - page with content translated some how
then the printing stops.
Here is the code:
private static final double FACTOR = 2.83;
private double width, height;
private void setupJob(){
          // page width and height
          width = 75*FACTOR;
          height = 50*FACTOR;
          job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
          pf = new PageFormat();
          //PageFormat pf =job.pageDialog(job.defaultPage());
          aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
          // Create a letter sized piece of paper with one inch margins
          paper = new Paper();
          // resize the paper and the imageable area
          paper.setSize(width, height);
          paper.setImageableArea(0, 0, width, height);
          // set paper for the pageFormat
          pf.setPaper(paper);
          // set the job printable by calling the painter of this object with the pf pageFormat
          job.setPrintable(this, pf);
          job.setCopies(1);
          // set the media printable area in mm
          aset.add(new MediaPrintableArea( 0f, 0f, 75f, 50f, MediaPrintableArea.MM));
          try {
               job.print(aset);
          } catch (PrinterException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
@Override
     public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat pf, int page)
               throws PrinterException {
          if (page > 0) { // We have only one page
               return NO_SUCH_PAGE;
          }else{
               Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)g;
               // no translation needed
               // g2d.translate(11.34f, 0);
               // scale to fit page size
               double sx = 0, sy = 0;
               sx = width/(75*4);
               sy = height/(50*4);
               double scale = Math.min(sx, sy);
               g2d.scale(scale,scale);
               // draw the elements
               for (int i=0; i<4; i++){
                    texts.drawText(g);
          return PAGE_EXISTS;
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
