Printing PDF's with a contrast...

Hey all, I need your help!
I am using Adobe Acrobat 8.1.4 on a Mac Mini. I have been using both Acrobat and Preview in order to print out a PDF file. When I print it, the document comes out printed (hp laserjet p2055dn) in a contrast (black text and a white background in a file is printed as a black background and white text). I want to remedy this problem.
I have tried the following:
-Turning the printer off and on
-Installing new drivers/software for the printer itself.
-Restarting the computer
-Changing the print settings to ensure that there is no contrast
-Changing the preferences in Acrobat to ensure that the contrast is correct
After doing all of this, and seeing the document as "normal" in the preview, it still prints with the contrast.
I thought that the issue could be in upgrading Acrobat, but this issue still occurs when I print with Preview, so it seems to be a more systemic issue.
I would appreciate your help! Thanks.

Sounds like a printer setup issue. As a temporary fix, try printing as image.

Very strange! What is your installed Reader version?

Printing pdf/postscript with JPS 1.4 -- HELP!

Hi all,
I've been experimenting with the new java printing service and I have run into a couple problems. In particular, I have been trying to get even the most basic example referring to printing a postscript file directly to a printer. The code is pretty much straight from sun's JPS section.
here's the code:
// Input the file
FileInputStream textstream = null;
try {
textstream = new FileInputStream("c:/0011.ps");
} catch (FileNotFoundException ffne) {
if (textstream == null) {
return;
// Set the document type
DocFlavor myFormat = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.POSTSCRIPT;
// Create a Doc
Doc myDoc = new SimpleDoc(textstream, myFormat, null);
// Build a set of attributes
PrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
aset.add(new Copies(5));
//aset.add(MediaSize.A4);
aset.add(Sides.DUPLEX);
// discover the printers that can print the format according to the
// instructions in the attribute set
PrintService[] services =
PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(myFormat, aset);
// Create a print job from one of the print services
if (services.length > 0) {
DocPrintJob job = services[0].createPrintJob();
try {
job.print(myDoc, aset);
} catch (PrintException pe) {
System.out.println("error");
Now....I've just installed printer drivers in Windows 2K for a RICOH and CANON iR550 printer. Both printers support PS3 and the RICOH Aficio AP2700 PS printer also supports IPP (Note: I physically don't have these printers, so I'm just printing to a file and viewing the file with a PCL viewer).
okay...now...the problem at hand....I can do the following with the code above:
1) I can print a postscript file to the printer with NO attributes specified...once I add Copies and Media types..no services are found...
2) specifying a PDF docflavor and pdf file will not return any services.
3) If I specify AUTOSENSE in the docflavor, the PDF will be sent to the printer but 'junk' will be printed out. Basically, the printer doesn't seem to understand the file type.
I've tried other printer drivers from other printer companies with no success.
Now, my question to everyone who has SUCCESSFULLY printed PDF/Postscript with the Java Print Service using attributes such as Mediasize, Duplex printing, Copies...please...please respond to this message and provide some insight on how you did it (i.e. printer type, drivers, code snippit, etc...)
am I missing something?
I know alot of people having the same problem...
Thankyou

Hi,
You may want to check the DocFlavors that are supported by the printers.
Using the command as followed,
// Get the supported flavour
DocFlavor[] docFlavors = printer.getSupportedDocFlavors();
for (int i=0; i < docFlavors.length; i++) {
System.out.println("Supported flavour is " + docFlavors);
I also hit into the same problem like you, trying to print a PDF into HP LaserJet 5 using AUTOSENSE. Junk output.
Check the docFlavor supported on the printers are
Supported flavour is image/gif; class="[B"
Supported flavour is image/gif; class="java.io.InputStream"
Supported flavour is image/gif; class="java.net.URL"
Supported flavour is image/jpeg; class="[B"
Supported flavour is image/jpeg; class="java.io.InputStream"
Supported flavour is image/jpeg; class="java.net.URL"
Supported flavour is image/png; class="[B"
Supported flavour is image/png; class="java.io.InputStream"
Supported flavour is image/png; class="java.net.URL"
Supported flavour is application/x-java-jvm-local-objectref; class="java.awt.print.Pageable"
Supported flavour is application/x-java-jvm-local-objectref; class="java.awt.print.Printable"
Supported flavour is application/octet-stream; class="[B"
Supported flavour is application/octet-stream; class="java.net.URL"
Supported flavour is application/octet-stream; class="java.io.InputStream"
However, do not know how to create a print service to support PDF. Obviously, we know that HP LaserJet 5 can print PDF.

Cannot print PDF file with version 11.0.10 Adobe Reader.

Cannot print PDF file with version 11.0.10 Adobe Reader. Get error messages "This document could not be printed" and "There are no pages selected to print". I am using a Mac OS Ver 10.0.2. I see that this question has been asked by others recently, but no answers. Anyone have any suggestions?

Assuming you are running 10.10.2 and not the ancient 10.0.2, can you tell us what printer and printer driver you are using? How is the printer connected to the computer (network, usb)? See if you can delete the Reader preference files? Years ago I resetting the printer subsystem would sometimes cure a problem like this.

Problem in printing pdf document with java code

Hi All
I want to print a pdf document with java code i have used PDFRenderer.jar to compile my code.
Code:
File f = new File("C:/Documents and Settings/123/Desktop/1241422767.pdf");
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(f);
FileChannel fc = fis.getChannel();
ByteBuffer bb = fc.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, fc.size());
PDFFile pdfFile = new PDFFile(bb); // Create PDF Print Page
PDFPrintPage pages = new PDFPrintPage(pdfFile);
// Create Print Job
PrinterJob pjob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
PageFormat pf = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob().defaultPage();
pjob.setJobName(f.getName());
Book book = new Book();
book.append(pages, pf, pdfFile.getNumPages());
pjob.setPageable(book);
// System.out.println(pjob.getPrintService());
// Send print job to default printer
pjob.print();
but when i am running my program i am getting error
Exception in thread "main" java.awt.print.PrinterException: Invalid name of PrintService.
Please anybody, knows the solution for this error?
Thanks In Advance
Indira

It seems that either there is no default printer setup or you have too many printers or no printer setup at all. Try running the following code. It should print the list of available print services.
import java.awt.print.*;
import javax.print.*;
public class PrintServiceNames{
     public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
          PrintService[] printServices = PrinterJob.lookupPrintServices();
          int i;
          for (i = 0; i < printServices.length; i++) {
               System.out.println("P: " + printServices);
}From the list pick one of the print service names and set it explicitly like "printerJob.setPrintService(printServices);" and then try running the program.

Printing PDF files with smb/cups not possible // SLPReg status -20!

Hello *,
i am running SAMBA 3.6.1-1 and CUPS 1.5.0-1 on a dedicated system. Printer: Canon Pixma IP4500 (USB).
The problem is that all Windows 7 clients are not able to print PDF files (since few months) on that printer while printing these files with Linux software is no problem. The PDF files are neither encrypted nor forbidden to print.
I tried to print with Adobe Acrobat Reader X (latest) and Foxit Reader. Both are preparing the pages to be printed and close their printing dialog after processing. Windows printing queue does not show any jobs (which it even does not when printing simple images with MS Paint, which is not a problem).
Windows systems are using the Canon Inkjet 4500 and Canon iP 4500 driver (manually installed). Printing images works with both drivers.
I searched for "SLPReg […] failed with status -20!" but found no helpful information.

I cannot print pdf files with Adobe flash player installed

Hello,
I have just encountered an issue with printing PDF files on my computer. I am running windows 7 64 bit. I just upgraded to the latest Flash player with firefox addon. After I completed the upgrade, I soon realized that I could no longer print pdf files. Whenever I opened a pdf file and attempted to print it, through several different supported pdf programs, the print screen would up becoming unresponsive and I would have to close the pdf program through the task manager. I unistalled the adobe flash player and it's accompanied addon, and I was then able to print pdf files again without any issues. Can you please help me resolve this issue? Is anyone else having similar problems? Thank you in advance.

Very strange! What is your installed Reader version?

Print PDF file with the lay out created in the BEx web application designer

Got the following questions (problems) when print a web report created in BEx Web Application Designer to a PDF file:
1. The tile (which has a company logo and report name in it) was not printed, is it possible to print a title (with company logo) on each page of the PDF file?
2. Want print the filters that have value specified on the PDF file, is it possible to do this?
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Hi Simon,
you can achieve this requirement i.e. using this way of implementation:
1. Create a new template which contains the required fields (company logo etc) and set the visibility of the top container to "hidden". Add a empty data provider to this template and add the filter values (variable names) you want to display on the PDF. However be aware that the name for the (empty) data provider must match the name of the data provider within the original template you want to print.
2. Open your original template and include the template you created in step 1 (Advanced: Web Templates). Choose the appropriate location (above/below the analysis item.
3. Check the settings of your export command: do not set a special web item to be printed.
If you export the template within web the second template should be printed correctly.
Brgds,
Marcel

Cannot print pdf files with 9.3.1, cannot remove patch

does anyone know how to fix msi problems ? updater says 9.3.1 is more functional than 9.4 what does that mean? does that mean I need to remove 9.3.1 in order to install 9.4 ? All i want out of this is the ability to control what stays and want goes onto my hard drive and the ability to print PDF files like the product claims. I swear as my life advances I will not buy a product from a company that cannot support me with there standard issues of products . offering a free product that malfunctions is not my idea of building a trusting relationship. What's more disturbing is that I talked with Ganesh this morning on adobe chat and know i cannot even register with that email. Can anyone fix msi problems or is this just a runaround bad business practice of post WTO new world order ? Thanks for letting me vent. Now about the msi problem...

Thanks for the advice, but I'm
already beyond that(go to add remove
programs and click remove). I did my backup and downloaded windows installer cleanup from http://majorgeeks.com/Windows_Installer_CleanUp_Utility_d4459.html After download when I ran the program to install it, the window that popped up was labled "Microsoft Office Update". When that disappeared I found Windows Installer Cleanup located in the All programs list in start. I clicked it and a window popped up about the size of task manager. I scrolled down and highlighted Adobe 9.3.1 and clicked remove and it removed it and the 9.3.1 unremovable update from the conrol panel. Then I went to Adobe.com , downloads and downloaded Adobe 9.4, installed it, and tested it by printing a PDF file. Before I was scared to mess up my netbook and didn't want to deal with the hassle, but we all have our limits until we start to take these kind of risks into the unknown. sometimes, even though it's a burden to register to umpteen forums, it's that extra hassle that gets you over the edge. Please share this info. ohh yeah, NONE of this was done in safe mode.

I cannot print PDF's with XI on Windows7/ Dell XP and a Dell A940 Printer. Why ?I use to be able.

I use to be able to print PDF's on an older version of Acrobat.Since I uploaded to XI , I cannot print from Adobe but I can print from Word and others .I have tried removing XI and going back to an older version with the same result. I get a prompt that states "This application has failed to start because DLBAGF.DLL was not found.Re-installing this application may fix this problem. And another -"AcroRd32.exe-unable to locate componet" and finally "Can not load library DLBAPRP.DLL using defaults,error 126.Any one else in my boat?

Cannot print PDF's with Kyocera

I am using a Kyocera 5050 in my office installed as a network printer that utilizes local authorization codes for each employee in order to track printing usage. Normally, a print job will be sent to the printer and a box will pop up asking for credentials (the username and password for the printer). The printer will authorize the print job and then print it. I have one employee which cannot print PDF's from Acrobat. I tried updating the printer driver, Acrobat is up to date, and he has no trouble printing from any other application. Tried installing Adobe Acrobat Reader in order to see if it was just Acrobat, and Reader will not allow printing either. The computer will send the print job to the printer, but the printer rejects the credentials and will not print the job. No other employee has issues so it isn't a network issue, and his credentials work in any other software outside of Adobe products so I'm assuming that the issue lies within Adobe's software. Any ideas?

I we understand your posting, only one user out of a group of users printing to a particular printer requiring credential presentation is having problems printing from Acrobat. How do you conclude that “the issue lies within Adobe's software” given that the other users don't have this problem?
The particular printer, the Kyocera 5050, supports a number of page description languages, including their own emulations of PostScript and PCL. What page description language is being used? Are all the users setup with the same driver using the same page description language and the exact same driver settings?
Acrobat and Reader generate their own PostScript, bypassing the driver for that function. Drivers that attempt to put up their own dialogs (such as requesting credentials) and then try to insert commands into the PostScript stream must do so very carefully per conventions established by Microsoft and Adobe. If such commands (such as a pre-job authentication stream) are not properly inserted, then they might be put into the job in the wrong place or go missing altogether.
I would recommend checking the driver for the user experiencing the problems, making sure it is the exact same version and having all the same settings as those for users not having problems.

Output is reduced in size when printing PDF documents with Preview

When I print a PDF file with Preview the printed output seems to be about 20% smaller than actual. If I print the same file with Adobe Reader for Mac the output is normal and not reduced. Other file types do not seem to have the same issue. I don't recall having this problem before I upgraded to Leopard. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Jack,
If you have a rummage through Preview's Preferences and look at the scale settings in the 'PDF' tab, do you have it set to respect the 100% scale factor of the PDF? This can sometimes affect the scaling when the PDF was formated for a different paper size from the one you're trying to print it on. If everything there seems to be ok, try comparing the two different expanded print diaogs which you receive in Preview and Adobe Reader, looking at things like scaling and paper-size again.
