Printing Pages Document

I want to print a 40 page Pages document. I go to print, select 'all', but when the printer (HP 6100 Series) starts up, it just spits out one page after another, very quickly, w/nothing on them.
Any Clues

Do other applications do this? If you print to PDF using the Print dialog, is the resulting PDF file blank? If not, when you print this file, do the pages come out correctly?

Trouble Printing Pages Document

I have created a two page, Pages document, I used one of the templates for a news letter. It has text and 15 pictures imported from my photos in iphoto.
When I print lower quality draft versions it works fine. But when i want a high quality print, the printer stops near the bottom of the first printed page and just stalls. Whats going on?
Here is what I have
Slot loading iMac, 400 MHz Power PC G3, 512 ram memory (1slot)
128 GB internal hard drive, Mac OS X 10.4.8
Pages version 1.0.2 ( 2 page document w/ 15 pctures & text, size 8.3 MB)
Printer Canon Pixma iP 1500 ( Installed latest driver from Canon last night)
Most of the pictures are pretty small, 1-1/2" x 2", would it be better to reduce the image MB size by using iPhoto to export it as a smaller size version, and replace the images in my document to make the overall document size smaller?

I've had the same problem.
Try this for printing:
- in print dialogue go to Paper Handling and set to 'scale document to paper size A4' (or whatever size you are using)
And try this for e-mailing:
- open print dialogue window, in the bottom left corner click on PDF and 'Save as Postscript'
- you get a huge PS file. Open it with Acrobat (or Preview) and you will get a compact PDF file which is good for e-mailing or printing.
If you have a full version of Acrobat there is also and option 'Reduce file size'.
I struggled a lot while trying to find a way to create mailable files from Pages. The three step solution (Pages-PostScript-PDF) seems to work best.
I've published several articles on this at

Hope this helps,

I have an iPad 3 and when trying to print Pages documents from EpsoniPrint there is a border, how can I get it to print normal without sending it to my Mac?

I have both quickoffice and pages on my iPad, and when I try to print from either of those through EpsoniPrint they don't print "normal". And pages prints with a border around it. How can I adjust that or is there a better app for printing via wireless? I have an epson 510, so it's wireless capable but not AirPrint.

If you have a Mac I would recommend that your install Printopia. Here is a link to it:

With Printopia, any printer that you can connect to your Mac will appear on your iPad as long as they are on the same wi-fi network. Try Printopia to see if that border goes away. Good luck!

How do I convert pages documents into a pdf format?

Many of the poster layouts do not save well as a ".doc" document. The formating gets all screwy. I have only the "pages" option or the ".doc" option for files under the "save as" dropdown. No professional printing services in my area offer the ability to print pages documents. They all recommended converting them to pdf. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Joe.

In OSX you can print anything to pdf ( see PDF button at bottom left of print dialog).
Pages also exports to pdf Menu > File > Export > PDF
However be aware that OSX will convert any transparent objects to low res 72 dpi bitmaps which are not suitable for commercial printers. Also it takes quite a bit of work to ensure that text is not in cmyk.

HP printer no longer prints Pages docs

My HP deskjet 5650 printer suddenly stopped printing Pages documents this afternoon after completing only 8 pages of a 10 page run. The printer does, however, print from other programs such as Preview, my Mac mail program, Appleworks, etc. So this problem seems specifically related to Pages. I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled HP driver V 3.3.3 (Universal Binary), as the Software Update recommends. This still does not solve the problem. I've rebooted and turned the printer on and off, and even installed HP driver version 2.7.1 which is specifically for the Max OS X, but nothing seems to work. Any solutions?

It turns out that my HP printer DOES reproduce Pages '08 documents imported from Appleworks, but for some reason, it will not print 2 pages of the 10 page document I was trying to print. I looked at the embedded marks and other aspects of the document, but cannot find anything that makes them different and unprintable in Pages.

HT4356 How do you conver a Page document to PDF when there is no printer available

I purchased a $400 printer last year..now I cannot use it with my IPAD3 because it has to be an Air Print printer.
I need to convert my Page document to PDF and the only way to do that is to go to Print a document...but, when
I get there it tells me that I don't have a printer...Therefore, I cannot get to PDF conversion...
I thought Apple have an incredible group of smart software engineers ...what happened?
Now, I have to go and buy another $400 printer to be able to convert a document to PDF?
I bought this IPAD3 for my wife since she is not a computer expert but, so far I see that this is a product more compicated than a personal computer.
The hardware is great but, so far my wife has a hard time to use the Apps I got for this IPAD...I'm a software programmer working for a major computer company and I also have a hard time trying to get these functions to work...

Under "Share and Print", tap "Email Document", then choose PDF. Alternately, tap "Sent to iTunes", "Copy to iDisk", or "Copy to WebDAV" and then choose PDF...

This is usually a function of the driver you're using. Have you looked in the various PDEs for black and white or grayscale? What kind of printer are you using?

Not from a document, but there are envelope templates in Pages you can use.

Hi,
It depends on the software you are using, what is it ? In general you can select a range or just a number of pages.

Pages won't print Word documents

All of a sudden I can't seem to get Pages to print Word documents. Pages documents print fine, but if I send a Word document to the printer, the printer seems to start, but then never prints. I have an Epson Stylus C86. This problem only happens in Pages and only with Word documents.
Any ideas?

Since it only happens with Word docs, I'm wondering if it's a font issue. For the sake experimentation, try highlighting the entire doc, and change fonts, then try printing again.

Pages 5 crashing when trying to print a document

Pages 5 will crash every time I select print. Print dialog box does not even open up. Any thoughts? Upgraded Pages and to OS X Mavericks.

I totally agree! I need to be able to print a document with and without comments. Has this been taken away??

Why can't I print a document created on my MacBook Air with Pages via a wired Lexmark X2650 printer?

I am unable to printe a document I created on my Mac with Pages via a wired Lexmark X2650 printer. Of course, I have already confirmed that it is correctly set up and connected. Why?
Thank you.

TextEdit is an application on your Mac.
Type TextEdit into Spotlight (magnifying icon top right on the menubar) to quickly locate and open it.
It is the basic Text/Word Processor (but actually very capable) that comes with all Macs and a good place to test differences if you hit a problem.

I have upgraded to Pages 5.0.1 and now I cannot print or pass along "comments" in the text of a document. I previously was able to convert the Pages document, with comments, to a "Word" document so that others could view the edited text. How do I do that?

When you installed Pages v5, it automatically moved the older Pages ’09 v4.3 into /Applications/iWork '09 folder. If you want normal comment interoperability, you are advised to resume using the older version of Pages. Newer, is certainly not better with Pages v5.

How to print a document in Pages

just got iMac computer and downloaded Pages. Can not work out how to print a document I just created

Hi LL,
There's a great piece of free documentation for Pages called the Pages User Guide. It can be downloaded from the Help menu. I suggest that you read the well-written guide some quiet evening. It will get you off and running with your new computer and Pages.
Printing documents on a Mac is the same as on a Windows system: File > Print.

Recentley printing most documents in firefox print on 1/4 of the page and not the complte document. When I print the same thing in safari it prints fine. Please advise how I can get proper printing in firefox

When using Firefox to print most documents ( boarding passes, mastercard statements,genealogy documents) the printing only shows on 1/4 of the page, is in the lower left quarter and does not print part of the right side of the information. When I go into Safari and print the same documents within 2 minutes they always print fine. We like Firefox and would prefer to continue to use but if we can't print we will have to use Safari more often

I have the same problem with cutting of the page since installing the new version. If you manually zoom out the print it only shows 1/4 of the page on a whole page of paper. Something is wrong here.
I have done all these steps and it still does NOT print correctly!
I am a IT professional and something is not right with the new firefox browser. Please supply with fix or we will have to permanently switch back to Internet Explorer, which works perfectly.
