Printing Problem Pages- When printing, once I have confirmed the printing settings, the Proccessing Page Hangs, and then Pages begins to freeze, and then says Error While Printing.

Hi there, I wonder if you can help me,
When printing, on Pages 09, once I have confirmed the printing settings, the Proccessing Page Hangs, and then Pages begins to freeze, and then says Error While Printing. ScreenShots are below.
Thanks for your help, in advance.
Then......(after it has frozen, for about 2mins).....
Cheers!

Do you have the same problem with printing from other apps, such as TextEdit? Have you looked at your printer's control panel to see if an error condition is displayed there, and if so, what is it?

  • When trying to export a pages document, it say error while printing....

    When trying to export a pages document, it says 'error while printing' when I want to save as PDF. I used to be able to do it but for some random reason it won't let me anymore. Even when the printer is not plugged in or turned on it says it. Is there a setting I can change? Does anyone know how to fix as i can't email any documents and I don't know what else to do. Please help its driving me crazy.....

    thank you, I can't print or save any old pages documents. I will create a new one and see if that helps. I have tried from the print dialog but it says the same thing. I will try something in another application. Could it have been when I updated pages? I only recently got broadband so did a heap of updates that were a bit overdue.

  • "Save As PDF" in Safari only Results in "Error While Printing"

    Hi, first time poster. I searched through the forum and didn't find anything like my problem specifically on topic. I still Hope this isn't being redundant with anything else that has been posted.
    Problem:
    When I go to Print->Save as PDF the normal dialogue comes up without a problem. Its when I click on the save button that I an error saying "Error While Printing" pops up. Pulling up the console nets me with the following:

    *What I've Tried*
    I haven't had any luck with the solutions others have posted online (like Little Snitch being a culprit) when I've searched for either the "Save As PDF", "Error While Printing", or the console log error. I've run the printer reset function in system preferences and I've never had any printer installed on the system.
    I should note that prior to any of these problems with Safari, I installed the Firefox 3 RC1. I've since uninstalled it, because I was suspicious of it having an effect (being a little buggy as an RC). Removing it with AppCleaner hasn't changed the problem.
    Thanks all,

    I could print/save as .pdf until I did my latest software upgrade. Now I get "error while printing", and have been unable to find a solution. this is quite a problem for me, because I do a lot of research on the Web and have saved my results for years in pdf. Have you found a solution?
    Best regards,

  • Error while printing message

    Hi
    I'm hoping someone can help me I have a Macbook and have been using a HP Deskjet D5560 printer with it since i bought it and now it will not let me print each time i go to print it says error while printing. I have gone into some settings and had a little look but can't seem to fix the problem. Has anyone got any ideas? I am very basic with computers with things like this so please keep it simple if possible!
    Thanks
    Anna

    You may have a file permissions error or some other corruption.
    Try these one at a time (restart and try adding after each) -
    Reset Printing System - a menu choice in Printer Setup Utility.
    Download the 10.4.10 COMBO updater and re-update with that.
    Try the free trial of Printer Setup Repair from www.fixamac.net.

  • When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

    When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

    I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.

  • Preview : error while printing several pages per sheet

    I have a pdf file from which I would like to get a pdf with several pages per sheet. I cannot do that using acrobat through printing into a pdf file because it tells me to save it first ! So, as I did before upgrading my OS from SL to Lion, I tried to do it with Preview. The problem is that I get the following message "Error while printing" and no more information.
    - I tried with an other pdf file and I got the same problem.
    - Printing one page per sheet is OK, either into a pdf file or to an actual printer.
    - Printing several pages per sheet from Acrobat to a printer is working fine.
    - I asked to a colleague who is still using SL to do the same procedure with my file and it worked fine.
    My conclusion is that there is something fishy with Preview under Lion.
    Does anyone get into the same trouble than me ? Is there a solution even an alternative one ?

    In the printing configuration window, I selected Layout and then 2 pages per sheet, save in Pdf, select a directory and name then save. At the end of the process, I got the printing error message. Looking at the /var/log/system.log, I got an error message concerning PMSessionEndDocumentNoDialog() returning 1282.
    I am using past because I do not have the problem anymore. My MBP is a bit funny since the Lion upgrade. It looks like windows : from time to time, I get the black screen telling me that I should press the switch on button (like the famous blue screen).
    I am suspecting that XQuartz (last update) is messing-up somehow my laptop (system crashes happened when it was launched or even when it was starting).
    Thanks anyway.

  • PDF export from Pages fails "Print - error while printing"

    Every month I have been generating PDF versions of my invoices by using the 'export' function of Pages. This has always worked fine without any problems.
    Today (end of Feb 08), the pdf export function always fails with 'Print - error while printing". A pdf file is saved to disc but it is corrupted and unreadable. I can still export as rtfd.
    I don't see anything about this in the logs, but I do notice that there was a Pages software update to 3.0.2 earlier this month.
    Anybody know how to fix this?

    Hello
    Before re-installing, it may be useful to
    a - repair permissions with Disk Utility
    b - trash the preferences file: <bootVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Pages.plis t
    if it's not sufficient, try to print from an other user account.
    If it works this way, you will know that the application's files are not the wrongdoers as every account calls the same application file.

  • Why does Firefox always block any link I try to open going to a web page when I don't have pop up blocker on?

    Why does Firefox always block any link I try to open going to a web page when I don't have pop up blocker on? First off they are not even pop ups....your crap blocks everything and don't save user names &/or passwords when you have it checked. Also in your tutorials about solving this issue says it has the word "OPTION" .......no, it never says option to allow you to bypass it and etc. Only thing is says is "ALLOW" . That would be nice , but the problem is it will not allow it from then on. It only allows it right then and then you have to refresh...after that to open again it blocks it again.....HOW STUPID?!!!!!
    It always say that this is preventing this page from automatically redirecting to another page. THIS IS WHAT I AM TRYING TO DO...GO TO ANOTHER PAGE........I DON'T NEED YOUr BROWSERS PERMISSION TO DO THAT. THAT IS WHAT A *%#$&*(&*%$$%% BROWSER IS FOR TO GO TO OTHER PAGES......THEY ARE NOT POP UPS!!!!!
    YOU STUPID BROWSER ACTUALLY BLOCKS EVERYTHING AND THAT SUX!!!
    HELP!!

  • "Printing: Error while printing" when I tries to Save - How?

    Since recently, whenever I tried to save a Pages document, Pages freezes for a few minutes, then show me a system message that says "Printing: Error while printing". I did not ask Pages to print anything! Please advice. Thank you very much.

    You have not provided exact system info, no details about your documents, your save locations nor even told us what version of PS, so nobody can even begin to guess.

  • "Error while printing" when sharing printer under 10.6

    This just started yesterday. When attempting to print from either of two other computers (both 10.4.11) to a printer (HP LJ 1160) connected via USB to a MacBook Pro (10.6.2), the print fails with the cryptic error message: "Error while printing."
    I have searched these help forums and have tried repairing permissions on all computers. I have also verified that the /tmp symbolic link is in place on all computers.
    I have also tried resetting the print systems on all computers. I am able to add the shared printer on the client computers, but when attempting to print to the selected shared printer I still get the error.
    The Console on the client computer generates the following items in the log:
    2010-01-18 08:59:49.452 TextEdit[423] PMSessionValidatePrintSettings failed (error code = -50)
    2010-01-18 08:59:50.812 TextEdit[423] Invalid PMPrintSettings in print info
    Any ideas?

    on the wife's g4 powerbook, added a network-shared printer, attempts to print to it result in:
    PMSessionValidatePrintSettings failed (error code = -50)
    Invalid PMPrintSettings in print info
    this same n-s-p works fine on my g4 powerbook, also 10.4.11...
    and i haven't been able to print to this printer from my core duo minimac running 10.6.2:

  • "Error while Printing" on ethernet network connected iMac.

    Have 2 iMacs sharing a Canon MP530, one directly connected, the other via a Linksys ethernet router. Upon a print request, the networked computer locates the MP530 and displays the standard print page, but shortly after clicking Print (or Preview) the "Error while Printing" message is displayed. Under some conditions in the past we have been able to print from the networked machine, but now we're stuck and nothing seems to fix the problem.

    Since you have 10.4.10 installed, I'm betting that you were able to print before this update was installed. Anyway, the first thing I would do is delete the printer from the 'client' (the iMac connecting to the shared printer). Open Printer Setup Utility, select the MP530 and delete it. Then click on Printer Setup Utility and select Reset Printing System. This should remove the Canon MP driver files. Then run the printer driver installer again and once completed, add the printer via the Printer Setup Utility, by clicking Add > Default Browser and select the Shared Printer.
    I would also try running a Repair Disk Permissions and if that doesn't help then try using Fixamac's Printer Setup Repair utility.

  • "Error while printing." over network

    I am trying to print from a mac mini running 10.4.11 to a printer on a macbook pro running 10.5.3. The printer is using the Laserjet 4 Gutenprint driver. When I connect the printer directly to the mac mini, everything works fine. I can use the PDF export options on the print dialog just fine. When I try to print over the network "Processing..." flashes up and I immediately get "Error while printing." I have tried resetting the print queue on both machines, (turning sharing off and on) rebooting, deleting and installing the printer on either machine multiple times. I've repaired permissions on both machines and the cups error_log gives me literally no information when that message pops up. Help!?

    I've also noticed that while the network printer is selected, I can't use the preview feature in the print dialogue, nor do the PDF features work. I get the same "Processing..." then "Error while printing." In addition, with the network printer selected, when I try to print from page 1 to 1 of a multipage document it tells me "Error: Invalid Page Range. The number is out of range. Resetting back to last known valid entry." it resets it to 1 to 1 and gives me the same error if I click print.
