Printing - part of document missing

I have been using Pages successfully for months and printing OK to an Epson Stylus CX5000.
I have just changed my printer (to get better photo quality) to a Canon Pixma MP810.
But now when I print existing Pages documents that print out perfectly on the Epson, I get a bit missing.
Specifically - the files are A4 colour pages consisting of 2 columns of black text and one colour photo. Under the colour picture there is a solid rectangle of yellow with a black type caption printing over the top. The solid yellow rectangle prints as 2 thin lines of yellow under the black type. The photo itself and which is on the same page prints perfectly.
If I run a print nozzle test - the test pattern and colour is perfect.
If I copy the solid yellow rectangle and paste it elsewhere on the page - then it doesn't print at all.
If I convert the Pages doc to a PDF - I get the same printed result; the yellow rectangle does not print.
If I create a new Pages document consisting of just 3 solid rectangles of Cyan, Magenta and Yellow - yes you guessed it - the yellow rectangle does not print! BUT if I create the same document in 'Appleworks' - it prints correctly.
On all the Pages document with yellow rectangles that do not print - they show correctly in Print Preview.
Anyone got any idea what is going on here? I have the latest 'Pages' software upgrade installed.

My Deskjet D1660 won't print part of my Word document

Please help me!
Yesterday I struggled for three hours to print black until I found out the cartridge ink was clogged, I cleaned it and that solved it. I've got a HP Deskjet D1660 and my laptop is Windows 7.
But today I was printing part of a Word document (page 24 onwards) and it just printed a couple of pages. It won't print page 26 onwards! printer says there is nothing in the queue and that the printer is ready. I've tried everything I could think of...... please help me; I think the problem is not the printer as it would printer anything else, including other Word documents. It must be something else, I just don't know what! :'(

Hello Moyo1,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
First off, I am glad to hear you have been able to clear the clogged ink jet that was preventing the Photosmart D1660 from printing black. Regarding the current issue, not printing past a set page number, let's try and fix this for you.
Since you have a Windows Operating System, run the HP Print and Scan Doctor. This will look into driver, software and communication problems that could be causing this.
Let me know the results, what passes, fails, etc and I will be looking forward to hearing back from you.
Cheers,
JERENDS

How do I print part of a document, say a paragraph?

I am a newcomer to Macdom, being ex-PC. Can anyone tell me how, in iWrite, I can print part of a document, say a paragraph. At present all I can do is print everything on the page, sometimes pages long.

Some applications have a choice for this in the print window. For those applications that do no offer this option, I recommend using Print Selection available from http://www.schubert-it.com/free/

Adobe 8.1.2 Windows 2003 - Parts of Document Printing Black

We have an issue that appears to only be showing up on machines running Adobe 8.1.3 (these machines happen to also be running Windows Server 2003).
When we try to print a specific document, the first page of the document prints fine, however, a specific part of the second page prints rather strange. A 'box' on the second page (a third of the width, and about a quarter of the height, at the very top and center of the page) will print mostly all black, and will have two stripes of area that will print fine.
It's very strange. Unfortunately, I cannot scan this document in currently.
When we preview this document via print preview, it previews fine.
When we print it from Windows XP using Adobe 9, it prints fine.
I have seen some known issues with printing from Adobe 8, however, I've not seem any direct references to this issue specifically. Has anyone else?
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Unfortunately, simply updating these machines to Adobe 9 isn't an option at this time. Hopefully it will be in the future.
Thanks in advance for any information!

I'm getting the same issue on some of the computers at my work.
We're all using Acrobat Standard 8.2.2 and Windows 7.
I'm not 100% whether the files have been created in In Design but they certainly look like they probably have.
Seems like Acrobat 8 (and various updates since) are not very compatible with Windows 7. I've been having plenty of headaches since we upgraded the operating systems 2 weeks ago.

Adobe documents regularly print partly in English and partly in an unknown (to me) language.

I have tried to un-install and re-install Adobe Reader to no avail. When printing Adobe documents that I have downloaded from the web (and also when printing directly from the web), the documents print partly in English and partly in an unknown (to me) language.

Partway through printing. The original document is in English. Sometimes on part of a page, sometimes the whole page.

In IDCS3 how do you print part of a page?

I use IDCS3 to create large graphics, 48"x96" and larger. I always need to print a section of a graphic to proof in color on an 8.5 x 11 color printer. This is easy, oddly enough, in the sister application Illustrator. You get a thumbnail image in the print dialog and you can pan the page area around to print exactly what you want. For no good reason, this feature seems to have been left out of IDCS3. I can't imagine that Adobe felt it was essential for AI, but not for ID so I assume that there must be a way to do it that I'm missing. Please don't ask me to tile it. First, there is no way to tell which tile is correct and second, I don't want to print the entire document on 100-plus pages. I just want to print one. I'm assuming it works like AI somehow, I just can't find it. Anyone know how to do this very fundamental thing? I know it is going to be simple, but I'm willing to risk embarressment to save paper.
Thanks,
MGuilfoile
CS3

Peter, using manual tiling would work except that the print dialog box in ID does not show a thumbnail of the image (like AI) and I don't think it allows you to move the tiles around the little white rectangle that it does give you (again, unlike AI.) I haven't used tiling before, do you mean that the tile manipulation occurs on the actual layout? If not, then I have to count rows and columns of tiles and then try that again on the print dialog page where the page icon is the size of a postage stamp. Remember, I'll have around 100 tiles to pick from! It sounds like it wiill work, however, and I appreciate all the help. Still, it is maddening that this sort of thing comes up again and again where one part of the "suite" has a feature that is nonexistant another.

Printing problem when PDF is sent to the printer with certain fonts - missing text

I'm running into a printing problem when PDFs containing certain characters of the Calibri font are used. The text in large sections of the PDF is missing on the paper version, but the text is there on the screen. It's also happened when the PDFs we created were e-mailed out to a client and printed on their printer. The problem is not present when printing directly from the programs (Microsoft Word, Excel, Visio, etc.). I've been trying to get tech support from Adobe on this, but every time I call they apologize and say they will call back in 4-6 hours with an answer. Same result each time, no call back. If anyone from Adobe is listening, it's case number 184891587. The font appears as an embedded subset when I look at the document properties. Sometimes deleting one or two Characters allows for larger text blocks to be printed - i.e. removing a long dash in bold from the heading of a paragraph makes the paragraph reappear when printed to paper from PDF. In all cases the PDF appears correct on the screen. Printing as an image allows the text to appear, but the image quality isn't acceptable for small text, even at the 600 dpi setting on the printer. If the PDF is sent out by e-mail, we do not have control over the end-user's printer setup anyway, so we need this to work in all cases.
The setup/process I'm using is as follows:
Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-Bit
Microsoft Office 2013 - problem is present when printing documents from Word, Excel or Visio. Even other variations on documents.
I've tried Acrobat versions 11.0.0 to 11.0.5 as well as Acrobat Pro 11.0.0 and 11.0.1. Same Result
Printing to Adobe PDF as the printer, from the third party application
Printing to a Xerox printer from PDF using Acrobat - Text missing
Client prints to Konica printer - Text missing
I print to the wide-format Ricoh (which also does 11x17) and the text is present.
Is there something I'm missing? Is the entire font not getting embedded into the PDF file? I noticed that rolling back to a much older version of the Calibri font (1.02 compared to 5.72) makes the problem mostly go away, but it's not completely gone. Is it possible the font is too large to be completely embedded? Where can I go from here?

Success! At least for now. It looks like my problem was fixed with Adobe's most recent update, 11.0.06. From the release notes:
PDF creation
Added support for Lotus Notes 9.
Added support for WebCapture in IE 11.
Added support for conversions from AutoCAD 2013.
3652540 A blank pdf is created for files having hidden visual style.
3601108 Flow Chart converts as a multicolored square.
3654345 Word documents missing parts of images in conversion to PDF.
3654572 Temporary file size increases when creating pdf by combining multiple files into one PDF.
3670155 PDF file created with Distiller XI prints incorrectly to some printers. (Emphasis mine)
3599407 Checkbox check marks do not appear in these files.
3663233 IE Web Capture in localized OS: Icons and drop-down menu items are missing and conversion dialog is not localized.
3651931 Chrome Only: Few web pages when converted to pdf from Chrome plugin doesn’t show up the Save As dialog.
3597910 EPM Mode On: Web capture is not working on Windows 8-32 bit when cache folder is missing.
3610644 Firefox 23.0: With Firefox version 23.0 (latest), the WebCapture icon shows up very dim as if it is disabled.
3650244 ODA falis to convert DWG files to PDF for large files.
I don't know if that's definately what solved the problem, but it sure sounds similar and this is the update that made the printing problem go away. We can't get the PDFs to fail at this point with our printers, even with Calibri 5.72. I'll come back to thread if we have printing problems at the end-user locations.

I can't print my PDF document. Why are the bookmarks outlined in red ink?

I installed Acrobat Pro and have problems with PDF docuents in Adobe Reader ever since. Now it only prints half a PDF document and my printer says I have the wrong size paper installed. It's a plain and simple 81/2 x 11 document. In looking closely at the bookmarks on the side of the document, I notice individual pages have red ink boxes around part of the text in the document. This is the only part that prints on the document.
I think this is related to Acrobat Pro forms, but I don't see any way to keep Acrobat from screwing up my PDF documents so I can print them out.

This just started happening to me today. Did you ever get this solved?

Printing a pdf document created in Acrobat Pro 9.0

Solved the problem of printing a pdf document created using Acrobat Pro 9.0 with SL - tried many different things form adobe etc and by accident discovered while in Acrobat you have to select ADVANCED in Print then click onto SAVE AS IMAGE in next box and then OK and all prints as it should. Just thought others may want to know this if they have had problems 1

I'm reviewing your post and while I see a fix, I can't locate the problem that you may have originally posted. Since I'm having issues, I'm hoping your's were the same.
Sometimes when I print an Adobe Acrobat 9.0 document, most of the printed word fail to print out (although they are in the PDF document). Almost all graphical elements print and the occasional line of text--but most text is missing. Was ti your issue?
Thanks.

Officejet Pro 8600 Plus prints part of page and quits

My brahd-new Officejet Pro 8600 Plus prints part of page and quits. The manual said to clean the print heads and align the printer. I did both of those. It made the problem worse. I'm printing on photo paper - HP Premium Plus. It happens about 1/2 the time.

Hi beantowner2,
I would like to begin with a few questions,
Does this happen when you copy a photo, or only when you print form the computer?
Do you have the printer connected directly to a wall outlet or a surge protector?
What operating system and version is on the computer?
Is the printer connected to the computer with a USB cable or wirelessly?
If you have a WIndows operating system please download and install the latest firmware version for the printer. HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g_n Firmware.
If you are using a surge protector, I suggest disconnecting and connecting the power directly to a wall outlet.

How do I print a Numbers document? All I get is the heading!

How do I print a Numbers document on my Mac? All I get is the heading!

Hi L,
What do you see after Menu > File > Print?
Are you using Numbers 2.3 (Numbers '09) or Numbers 3.1?
Please reply with a screen shot of a small part of your screen (large shots are often difficult to read).
To take a screen shot,
1. hold down the shift and command keys, then type 4. The cursor will change to crosshairs. Release the shift and command keys.
2. Drag over that part of your screen then release the mouse/trackpad. A screen shot will appear on your desktop.
3. In a reply to a message, click on the camera icon in the Toolbar above your reply and
4. Choose File > Choose > Insert Image.
If this does not work, Close the Insert Box (red cross on the top right) and go back to Step 3. Camera icon sometimes needs a wake-up call, but works the second time.
Remove any personal details before taking the screen shot.
Regards,
Ian.

Print part of image in CS4?

I recently upgraded from CS3, and I seem to have lost the ability to print part of an image.
I'm sure that in CS3, if you tried to print an image that was larger than the paper, you got a warning saying it would be cropped, but you could still move the image in the print preview to get the part you wanted. How do I do this in CS4, without cropping?

You can still do this in CS4.
In the Print dialog, Center Image and Scale to Fit Media must both be unchecked, and Bounding Box must be checked.
Then you can slide the image around in the preview window as much as you like.
You can also drag the corners of the bounding box in the preview to manually scale the image.
Unfortunately, many printers will not print an image that extends past the printable area. If this is the case, you'll be able to go past the warning message, but the page will probably come out blank. If you can set your printer to print bleeds, then you can probably print the portion of the image that falls within the printable area.
(I was also going to explain how to set a pre-sized selection and then print just the selected area, but the "print selected" checkbox in the print dialog seems to be broken at the moment. So here's a pretty useful work-around that you may need to use if bleeds are a problem.)
1. Select the Crop tool (C / Shift-C) and enter the width and height of your printer's printable area. You can enter "8.27 in" or "2750 px" etc. If you don't know your printer's official printable area, just allow about 1/4 to 1/2 inch of border (e.g., 8 in x 10.5 in for letter size).
2. Then, in the settings bar, enter a reasonable pixels per inch for your printer (300 should work fine) in the Resolution field.
3. Then drag the crop marquee over your image and position or size it as you like. Because the Width and Height are not blank, the crop area will retain the correct proportions. Note that whatever size crop area you create, the crop operation scales that portion of your image to the specified Width and Height.
4. Then press Enter or Return or click the big checkbox on the settings bar. Don't save your document!
5. Print the cropped document as usual, and after the print dialog closes, press Ctrl-Z (Command-Z) or choose Edit / Step Backwards to undo the crop.

2620 prints word docs with missing text

I just purchased an offcejet 2620 and it will not print out my word documents correctly. There are missing lines of text and cannot figure out why. I am using a MacBook Air OSX 10.9.4 I need help please!

Hi donandsteph,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that your HP Officejet 2620 will not print your Word Documents correctly on Mac OS X 10.9.4. I am happy to help!
I would recommend this print quality guide. Fixing Ink Streaks, Faded Prints, and Other Common Print Quality Problems.

We use a doc template to create a purchased part spec document and then save them as pdf formatted files. These part spec documents are also appended with the datasheets for these purchased parts. When we want to update/revise the document, is there a method, using Acrobat, to make those updates to the pdf, or must we go back to the doc template and basically generate a new document?
Also, our resulting pdf documents aren't searchable. How can we generate pdf documents that are searchable? I may want to search for a part value or name within the body of these pdf documents, but currently can't do that...very inconvenient.
Can you assist?

Not totally sure about the search issue. A lot depends on how you created the PDF and what is in the datasheets you attached (like are they graphics?). The doc portion should be searchable as long as you used print to the Adobe PDF printer or PDF Maker. For your use, it may be that the print is adequate. However, the result should be searchable (unless maybe you had a form with filled in fields and created the PDF with PDF Maker. I think the form data may be retained in form fields and the fields are not searchable. In that case, a print might be a better procedure. (it would help to know the versions of WORD and Acrobat as well as the exact process you used to create the PDF.)
If the appended data sheets do not change, then you might try opening the original PDF and then using Replace Pages to replace the file created from the DOC file.
