Printing Problem - Multiple pages won't print

I am attempting to print the inside pages of a wedding program using Pages '08. I have two printers - an HP 7580 and a Lexmark c544dn. I have elected file>print>copies and hit print. The Lexmark prints one copy while the HP shows only a red exclamation mark by the printer and will not print anything. Curiously, the outer page of the program will print multiple copies on the 7580. The inner back to back page (or more clearly, a portion of the program is on each half) is slightly smaller and the sizing has been adjusted accordingly and of course the page oriented to Landscape. This is about to drive me crazy because I can find no reason one section would print correctly while the inner pages won't. I'm sure there's some simple setting I'm missing But -- I'll appreciate any help to solve this puzzle

I'll bet you have an HP printer. It's a long-standing problem between Apple applications & HP printers, specifically AppleWorks & Pages (any version of either) & HP printers. I'll also guess that you have numbered your pages starting with a number other than 1. Try putting the specific page numbers in the print dialog. For example, if you have a six-page document but the pages are numbered 11 to 16, an HP printer doesn't know what to do. Tell it to print pages 11 to 16 & it likely will work.

  • Safari Problems (Slow, Pages won't load, etc)

    Hi,
    My MBPro is less than a year old. All software is up to date.
    My new 802.11 AC router is installed without a problem.
    Safari keeps lagging in loading pages. Sometimes they just don't load.
    I thought it was the router or internet connection but it's not.
    Google Chrome is lightening fast.
    I've cleared cache, browser history, etc.
    Not sure what else to do.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    What version of the OS are you using?
    Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. Then try Safari/History/Show History and delete all history items.  Quit/reopen Safari and test. You can also try try Safari/Clear History and Web Site Data. The down side is it clears all cookies.Doing this may cause some sites to no longer recognize your computer as one that has visited the web site.

  • Email problems (multiple accounts) won't open

    Never had any issues on my Z Or Z1 with around 10 IMAP accounts. 
    Last year got my z2 tablet also running kitkat 4.4.4 and after setting up more than 4 accounts the email app just sits there appearing to work away (busy) to even display any emails. I get notifications of emails but never can access them. The list accounts is blank unless sometimes occasionally the app freezes and I close and then back into the accounts setting. But even when I eventually get a list of accounts to displayin settings, when I click on that account it doesn't open to allow deleting of the account.
    Have exactly same problem on my Z3 phone and by fluke I managed to get in and delete the 5th account such that the email app works normally. 
    I am a Sony fan. All phones, tablets, 4k Tv, AV receiver, ps4 etc But this issue is driving me tCrazy!!!

  • Printing Problem - Incomplete multiple page print job - until paper runs out

    I'm on Mac OS 10.9.3 printing to a Samsung CLX-6250FX. This is a network printer used by all the Apple/Window computers in this office.
    I am having terrible problems recently with printing multiple page documents - excel, word, email, pdf etc. I am spending a fortune in paper and printer cartridges.
    The print job does not complete and the last page printed, the following message prints:
    ERROR: syntaxerror
    OFFENDING COMMAND: true        cvt      Tfpgm     nglyf      '   ^  head
    STACK:
    -mark-
    /sfnts
    Then the same printer job restarts and fails at the same point until the printer tray runs out of paper (unless the print job is aborted and/or the printer is turned off and turned on again)!!
    The specific error message displayed by the printer software is either "Remote host did not accept data file (32)" or "Remote host did not accept data file (105)".
    I haven't seen any pattern whatsoever in terms of application used.
    I have deleted the printer and reloaded the driver from the disk supplied with the printer. I have checked to see that I am running the most recent driver.
    I've already reset the printing system, but that didn't fix it.
    I have seen this problem on various support communities pages, but for different printers.
    I have yet to see a solution - Any other recommendations please?

    The error message you see printed is a Postscript error. With your printer, postscript (normal output type from applications) is converted to the printer's page description language before being sent to the printer. So, I believe the problem is in some part of the driver software.
    For first step, I would try restarting from the Recovery partition and repair the hard drive using Disk Utility. You can repair permission, too. This is trying to correct a corrupted file.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4718
    (just read the first paragraph)
    If that doesn't fix it, I would try downloading and installing the latest driver for the printer.
    Come back for more if that still doesn't work.

  • Scroll Bar Problem after Printing a web page containing multiple page data

    Hi All,
    I have a web application which has two DIV, one is main and one is child. I am having problem in printing multiple pages. There is a lot of data in the child DIV and i am using JavaScript functions to control the print functionality. When i print using window.print(), only the data on the main page currently being showed is printed. I further researched and checked out the Style.Overflow property.
    Now i am using divMain.style.overflow = "visible"
    After this the complete print comes. But in Firefox, the scroll bar disappears and only single page is left with no scroll bar .
    Now if after print i give divMain.style.overflow = "Auto" OR divMain.style.overflow = "Scroll", still the scroll bar doesn't come and if it comes then its inactive. I am unable to see the complete data on the page after the print is taken.
    The problem is not coming in I.E and the full data with scroll bar is recovered in I.E.
    Please help me how to get the normal page with full data and scroll bar after printing in Firefox.
    Thanks,
    Manuj

    hi, i would update my reader first to the newest version.
    does the size of the textfield never change, independant how much text is in it?
    perhaps check your subforms, if they are type "position" size does not change in my opinion, except your parent subforms expand to fit....
    or use "flowed" subforms...and regard the parent subforms too!

  • Hp deskjet 960c won't print multiple pages

    I am using Mac OS 10.5.8 with a hp deskjet 960c. Over the past few weeks the printer no longer prints documents with multiple pages from Preview or Excel. It will print the first page from these two programs but stops there. It still prints multiple page documents from Word and Acrobat Reader. I have no issues when using a different printer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer multiple times. Any ideas?

    Same problem with HP6940. USB connection.
    Also reinstalled drivers.
    HP4050N has no problems on network.

  • Print Booklet won't let me because of multiple page sizes, even if I am using A4 for all the pages

    Booklet won't let me because of multiple page sizes, even if I am using A4 for all the pages, this is the error message:
    "The active document uses multiple page sizes Print Booklet works only with documents that use a consistent page size."
    I am using Indesign CS6 (patches are up to date)
    thank you
    Cecilia

    Do you already see this when starting the Print Booklet dialog or later when finally putting out? If you can see the dialog windows, will the preview show all pages in same size?

  • Print Booklet won't let me because of multiple page sizes...?

    Dialog box:
    "The active document uses multiple page sizes Print Booklet works only with documents that use a consistent page size."
    OK, but the page sizes are all the same.
    Help?

    Actually, I have to disagree with you, Peter, about the Page tool.
    While I agree that it can be confusing to newcomers (as many of InDesign's tools are), it has great utility in printing. Two example are creating gatefolds or book covers. I wrote a blog post about this: http://indesignsecrets.com/introducing-multiple-page-sizes-in-indesign-cs5.php
    You can also create a nice presentation of an identity package using multiple page sizes with this feature: http://indesignsecrets.com/creating-multiple-page-sizes-in-cs5—part-2.php
    In the print dialog box, there a new widget for selecting all pages of the same size, if you're printing directly from the document. And creating a PDF is easy because PDF files have always supported multiple sizes and orientations.
    As usual, your commercial printer will have to get up-to-speed on new techniques, and you should communicate with them ahead of printing time.

  • How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf document on a HP Envy 4501 Printer

    My HP Envy 4501 Printer won't let me scan multiple pages into one pdf document.
    I went to "Advanced Settings", clicked on "file" and made sure that the check box next to "Create a separate file for each scanner page" was unchecked.
    When I clicked the Save button it showed the page that I scanned and showed 1/1.  On the right side it had options for changing the brightness and Contrast, Rotate and Crop and "Back", "Save" and "Done" buttons, but nothing about scanning another page.
    Not to mention HP's Customer Support is useless!
    I'd appreciate any help I can get with this problem.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Hi BH,
    I see your diagram.  I just scanned something.  The screen that I'm looking at right now shows the preview page and the scroll box to the left of that just like in your diagram.  The screen does not show the + button nor does it show the red x button under the scroll box as in your diagram.  I can't see the plus sign because it is not there.
    I tried re-installing the software and drivers as you suggested but that did not have any affect.
    Thank you for trying to help me with this problem but it hasn't worked, therefore I can't mark the reply "Accept as Solution".
    I've noticed that on HP's support forum web page there is only 1 solved request for assistance.  That doesn't give me much confidence in HP.
    Please reply back to this post to let me know if there is anything else that I can try or if you know someone else at HP that can help.
    If I don't here back from you, I'm returning this HP Envy 4501 Printer to get my money back to use it to buy a printer from one of HP's competitors.
    Thanks,
    Mark  

  • Print to pdf often doesn't work with multiple pages?

    When I try to print to pdf, it often doesn't work right.
    I can select, for example, multiple Excel worksheets to print. It looks fine with 4 pages in Preview, but when I select save as .pdf, it only prints 2 of the 4 pages, and it prints those in 2 separate documents rather than a single .pdf document with multiple pages.
    Is there a way to do this? Is this an Apple error or Microsoft error? Since it looks fine in Preview, my guess it is an Apple error?
    Mark

    It sounds like this is the problem with the way Apple handles multiple orientations in a pdf document. You can use Acrobat to print the files - it handles multiple orientations correctly. There was a previous thread on this:

  • Scanning multiple pages from print book into computer

    How to scan multiple pages from print book into computer? Someone supplied a link to this question, but I got stuck at step 1: Where is "HP Director software"? In other directions, it says to open the "HP Scan window," but that option is not available to me when I follow the directions. I have an HP 2159m computer, HP Photosmart Plus all-in-one, Windows 7, and use Firefox, if that's any help.
    TIA

    I have a similar problem:
    I am using an HP Officejet 6310xi via its TWAIN interface.  Regardless of which application invokes TWAIN (whether Irfanview, Thumbs Plus, or something else), the scanner dialog closes after transferring each scanned image.  To scan the next page requires re-starting the scanner, beginning with a whole new preview and re-entering all my scan settings.  This is only an issue with the HP scanner, not with my Cannon CanoScan LIDE 100, Visioneer OneTouch 8920, or any other scanner, each of whose scanner dialogs stay open for scan after scan.  Can anyone help me make the HP scanner dialog stay open for multiple pages?
    Note: Based on a suggestion on another site I set my scan preferences to include "Prompt for Additional Scans from Glass" as follows, but it did not help.
    I am experienced at scanning, but I find it extremely frustrating that the HP scan dialog closes, forgetting its settings, after each page.
    If it helps others, I gladly share my article, "Freedom from Paper--At Last" here

  • Scanning multiple pages with all in one printer using AiO software.

    I have the HP all in one printer and when I scan a document even if I add a page, each page has its own PDF identification. I cannot seem to get multiple pages in one scan that I can email as one document. Please advise.

    Hi Grwltgr
    If you have an ADF(Automatic Document Feeder) tray keep all the pages you want to scan and start scan. All the scanned pages will be added in a single pdf. 
    If you dont have an ADF tray, i might be able to help you if you can let me know the Complete Model Name.
    Kind Regards,

  • How do I print multiple pages (2) to one A4 page?

    Hi folks,
    How do I print multiple pages (2) to one A4 page (as you can in a PDF) ?
    There is no option when I try to print & I have checked advanced etc. I have tried opening as a PDF. I have tried printing to PDF but it won't allow.
    Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly welcomed - I don't fancy printing the whole 188 pages, but I need them all!
    Thanks,

    Hi Chris,
    Try this, and if you have any trouble get back and we'll trouble shoot, but I think it will work for you.
    Open System Preferences.
    Select Print & Scan
    Click on your printer under Printers in the left pane
    Click "Open Print Queue", on the right
    The print queue app will appear on your Dock
    Open a Finder window containing your files to be printed and select them all
    Drag the files from Finder to Print Queue icon in Dock
    Regards,
    Jerry

  • Laserjet Pro 200 M251NW printing Garbage characters multiple pages after just setting up

     I am installing the printer for the first time on a Dell Optiplex with Windows 7 32bit, it is about a year old and is working fine with other printers. The printer was working fine through USB on a laptop running windows XP. 
    Connected the printer to an open USB on the computer and the auto install started running from the printer. It seemed to run OK, I followed all of the prompts, etc. When I said it should print a test page it started printing multiple pages each with a few lines of what I would call garbage text, strange characters, spaces, random letters, etc. It kept printing pages and I had to turn the printer off to get it to stop. 
    I was thinking that maybe the drivers from the printer were old and not for Windows 7, so I then download the full driver from the HP website and installed that. It said it would uninstall the original driver, which it did, then it installed and again all seemed OK until I printed the test page, and the same thing as above happened. I also tried printing some text from notepad and it went to the print queue then disappeared. It still seemed like a driver problem to me so I manually uninstalled from the start menu program Uninstall for the printer. This time I downloaded the basic driver and installed - still with the same result. I thought maybe it was because the Quick STart from the printer kept loading when the printer was turned on so I turned it off from the menu on the printer, but it still didn't help. I also tried another USB port on the computer with the same result. 
    Is it possible there is software left from the first install that may not have been for Windows 7 and it needs to be removed manually?? 
    Any help from HP or anyone would be greatly appreciated as I need to get this printer running for our shipping system ASAP.
    Thanks,
    Rich

    I tried all of those things and it is always the same result. Even on the network, printing from the same computer. I was able to print properly from a different computer, to the HP 200 connected to the USB and shared on the original computer - so I then knew the USB was OK.
    I was looking online further and found the HP Universal  PCL6 driver, and it actually worked! I don't really understand why the proper driver will not work with the printer though. I even created a new user on the computer so all of the programs, etc. would not load, then I uninstalled and reinstalled the driver - still same problem. The computer also has drivers and printer software for Epson printers, so I don't know if that could be causing some type of problem.
    It is good that we can at least do basic printing but I really should have the fully functional driver working for the system. Any help from anyone, and hopefully HP monitors these discussions and can help out.
    Thanks,
    Rich
