Printing Problems after Reader 10 install

Recently deployed Reader 10 to about 300 workstations using Group Policy. Several machines are no longer able to print to some of the network printers. These printers are HP printers using the Universal Print Driver. When trying to print we get an error and the Adobe Reader application crashes. It will however print to other network printers that are using an older device specific driver, printing to the same print device. Have downloaded the latest HP driver, but it has not helped the situation. The printing worked fine with Reader 8 and Reader 9. Anyone with an Idea?

Sorry only know Windows: Edit (menu)>Preferences>General>Application Startup>Enable Protected Mode at startup.

I am using a Mac 10.6 and cannot find the "Enable protected mode at startup" in General or any other options. Does anyone have an answer for Macs? Thanks.

Printer Problems after upgrade to Lion

Does anyone have this printer problem after upgrading to Lion. A perfectly functioning laser printer on my network prior to upgrade - now the network seems to drop the printer and show it as "not connected" approximately every 30 minutes ???

Hi Paul,
Been away and just got back to this issue.
Thanks for the info. The OKI site has now posted a list of all their Printers and their relative drivers for compatibility with "Lion". My machine is due an updated driver from OKI in Mid Decmber according to this notice.
Meanwhile, as the printer does work with some tweaking I guess I will use the work around until the new driver is available. My legacy printers that i use for special jobs both work and as I do not have the disks for their drivers I am loathe to re-set the printer system at this time.
Thanks for your assistance in this issue.
Regards,
Mike, Rustington.

IPhoto 08 contact print problems - after 5 images. prints pt a screenshot

iPhoto 08 contact print problems - after 5 images. prints pt a screenshot

Okay - So, I teach photography and have my students print contact sheets from iPhoto version 08. I have one student (out of forty) having the following problem (I have removed preferences, reinstalled iPhoto, used the iPhoto updater for 7.1.5, reloading the printer driver and upgrading the system software to 10.6.8 {I teach in a high school, so no funds for newer software})
The problem is isolated to one student - the others on the same machine do NOT have the same problem. When this student selects more than 5 images, the resulting output looks as if he has taken a screen shot - the palettes on the left of the frame show and the titles he has inserted (using Batch Change) are moved on to the pictures.
At this point, I am going to let him screenshot his submissions, just wondering if anyone else has had this problem.
Thanks!

Printer problems after upgrading. My kodak esp 5250 says it has the printer head jammed. Reloading the software let it work once. Obviously an interaction problem with Lion. Any ideas?

Printer problem. Since installing Lion my kodak esp5250 all in one says the printer head is jammed. It isn't. Reinstalled software and it worked once but still gives printer head jammed message. Any ideas?

Only the obvious one: do you have the latest driver, and does that cope with Lion? Kodak's stated requirements include this, which is slightly suspect. Obviously an interaction problem with Kodak? Try exploring whatever help Kodak have.
System Requirements
Operating System Compatibility
MAC OS X 10.6.x, MAC OS X 10.5.x, MAC OSX 10.4.8 or higher required
Processor Speed
PowerPC G4, 1.2 GHz

My Late 2009 27" iMac i7 wake up problems after LION installed

About 5 or 6X, My iMac has had wake up problems after I installed LION. The screen wakes but the trackpad or mouse are frozen. I have to do a hard shut down (pressing the power button) for system to work correctly. When I power on the Mac, then everything functions. NEVER had this issue with Safari!

Exatly the same problem here with Lion on iMac 27" C2D late 2009.

Printing problems after installing the Epson Printer Driver 2.16

Has anyone experienced any problems after installing the Epson Printer Driver 2.16 through Software Update? I am having problems printing. It denotes an error message, specifically the rastertoescpii.app isn't working?

Oops, wanted everyone to know that the driver that Software Update downloaded and installed was 2.18, not 2.16 (which was the last one that worked for me). I just got done downloading the 2.18 driver directly from the Apple support website and installing it. Guess what? My printer is now working and everything is fine. If you are having issues, I suggest this route. Guess I solved my own problem, but hope this helps someone else.

Print problem after OS 10.4.8 install

Hi,
Loaded OS 10.4.8 on Dual 2ghz G5 yesterday and now realize can't print to HP 5000n networked printer unless I use a gimp print driver. This driver is not a solution since installable printer options are not available (ie printing to 3rd paper tray).
• HP 5000n driver causes program from which I am trying to print to suddenly quit.
• Using generic driver gives a message stating that the printer is busy and system will retry in 30 secs.
• Can print to Xerox phaser just fine.
Tried some suggestions from earlier posts:
Reloaded driver from HP site
Repaired permissions
Delete Print Prefs - and rebooted.
Reset Printing System.
All to no avail.
Might have to wait for an OS 10.4.9 fix but thought I'd throw the problem out there just in case.
Thx
C

Hi C,
I had exactly the same problem with a HP printer.
As I wrote in another post, after upgrading to 10.4.8 I could not print from any application. Just pressing file/print and no print-menu was there, instead the application was crashing.
What I did was the following:
-gone to www.macupdate.com and downloaded Printer Setup Repair.
-Installed and launched it, then gone to PPD installation/removal and removed all the PPD, any language, both from /Library/Printers and /System/Library/Printers.
-Now the printer was working, but seen only as a Generic Postscript Printer. Since I would like to have some of the installable options it provides, then I went on trying to re-istall the PPD file.
-Then from the HP website I downloaded the last driver for my printer (it is a LaserJet 4350dtn) and installed it
-New gz (compressed) files appear in /system/library/printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/ they are all from HP, of course.
-Double clicked on the one for LaserJet 4350
-Back to Printer Setup Repair, gone now to "select PPD file" in the panel PPD installation/removal and chosen the file just decompressed before. Then installed it: I have chosen only english language and put in /library/printers
-Now I installed my printer again in Printer Setup Utilily and it is working again: now when I press file/print from any application, the correct Print menu shows up and I can print.
Hope all the procedure can be useful to you!
Good luck
Clauful

Adobe installer files remain as windows after Reader installed, I've gone to Adobe Chat and they had me uninstall and reinstall Adobe AIR but the problem presists in Firefox only, not AOL or IE browsers.

After uninstalling/reinstalling AdobeAIR I now not only get the Adobe Reader install window but also get the AdobeAIR install window upon bootting up Firefox.

Attached are the two windows I get, Firefox hangs for a couple of minutes while these windows load, a real annoyance.

Printing problem Adobe Reader 9.3.0 and Windows 7 64bit

Good morning:
I cannot print a PDF to my Toshiba E-Studio165 copier (print through router). The data is sent to my E-Studio and the data light blinks and the copier starts but nothing prints.
I can print the same PDF to an old Brother HL-5140 that is connected via USB.
At first I thought there might be a document converter problem but as I can print to 1 printer but not the other that might not be the situation.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
David

Many thanks for your helpful advices!
Now I know, that after 9.3.0 first must be installed 9.3.1 and second 9.3.2. I see, this was the error and not the en_US/german problem.
I have prepared 3 screenshots of my Windows 7, to show you, that I have 3 Adobe Readers in my Adobe folder under C:\Program Files (x86).
Please see snap0003.jpg with the three Adobe Readers. In snap0004.jpg can you see my Add or Remove Programs: Adobe Reader is not existing.
In snap0005.jpg is a screenshot from Secunia PSI. I had the Adobe Reader 9.3.0 and they offer me the update to 9.3.2! That brings me an update error.
But my problem is, how can I uninstall 2 of 3 Adobe Readers. What can you say me to this problem?

Further info on 6980 printer problems please read this one

I have a HP 6980 deskjet that I attach via usb to my macbook when I need to print. Everything has been working fine for a year now except yesterday it gives me a message "problem printing to printer, please check that the printer is chosen in the print centre......" this is not exact but pretty close. I can post the exact message later when I am at home and can check it. Does anyone have any idea what may have caused this to happen so randomly? I never did install a driver or the CD because when I plugged the printer in, it was just there automatically (which I thought was just awesome). Anyway - any help will be much appreciated
Tried to install the driver from CD and I got the message " The software to be installed requires administrator or higher level access privileges" I had the right password and have installed other software - what's up with this.
I tried to add the printer again after removing it from my list. This is the message I get when I try to add the printer - "An error occurred while trying to add the selected printer successful - ok - cnflicting attributes.
This is the error message I would receive when the printer was available before I removed it - Word cannot print due to a problem with the current printer. Make sure you have a printer selected in print centre. You may need to print again or adjust your printer settings.
I haven't had one problem in the year that I have had this printer and it is not a problem with the printer as it will work when connected to other computers. HELP PLEASE!!

Booklet printing problems with Reader XI (version 11.0.06)

I created an 80 page 5.5" x 8.5" booklet using Word 2011 running under OSX 10.9.2 on a new 27" iMac. I then "printed" it to a PDF file. I then opened the PDF file in Reader XI and attempted to print it out using the "booklet" option as described at
http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/print-booklets-acrobat-reader.html#main1_Reader_and_Acro bat_X .
I planned to manually duplex the booklet booklet since my HP Color Laserjet CP1518ni printer does not have automatic duplexing. The first sign that something was wrong came when I selected "Back side only" from the Booklet Subset pop-up menu. The numbers in the Sheets from boxes showed "Sheets from 1 to 10" when I obviously needed 20 sheets to print the booklet. Repeated attempts to manually change it to "Sheets from 1 to 20" failed. Each time I changed "10" to "20", it would flip back to "10" when I clicked the "Print" button.
I set the Booklet Subset to print only the even pages and checked the "Reverse" box as I have done to successfuly print thousands of manually duplexed pages before.
The printer only printed ten sheets. The first sheet (what should be the booklet's centerfold) had page 40 on the left side as it should, but 42 on the right (it should have been 41). The last of the ten sheets printed had page 4 on the left side (instead of the expected 2) and 78 on the right side (instead of the expected 79). Even though these were obviously messed up, I went on to print the front side of these sheets, selecting "normal". It printed Page 1 on the right side as expected, but printed page 79 (instead of the correct page 80) on the left.
Folding the ten sheets into a booklet revealed the really bizarre nature of the printing snafu. Page 1 was, as expected, on the front. Turning the first page open revealed pages 4 and 5. Turning the second page revealed Pabes 8 (left) and 9 (right). This pattern continued, printing two pages, then skipping two pages, right into the centerfold pages 40 (left) and 42 (right). The first page turn after the centerfold revealed pages 43 (left) and 46 (right). The next revealed 47 (left) and 50 (right).
I am at a complete loss of how to determine where the printing process went afoul. Printing the PDF file normally (one page per sheet one-sided) resulted in all pages being printed normally.
The really frustrating part of this entire experience is that I could find no place to report this "bug" to Adobe. If anyone can help me solve this printing dilemma, or put me in touch with someone at Adobe who could help, it would be greatly appreciated.
The booklet is due at the printer's tomorrow and the inability to print a proof is a real pain. Hope the printer can print this file as a booklet. I would be happy to send this file (125 Mb) to anyone who might help.

I arrived here looking for a solution! And while reading your post the penny dropped that I didn't have a serious problem. I have a booklet of 112 pages and all I needed to do was re-order the pages as printed so that 1 is followed by a sheet with 2 on the under-face but same side and so on. The pages had printed back to front and needed flipping. But then I have a duplex printer and maybe that makes a difference. Is it to do with your manual duplexing and the order that the second pass is presented to the printer. As my duplex sheets effectively needed flipping over each one I'm wondering if you can solve your problem with a little experimentation and re-ordering before your second pass.

HP LaserJet 1000 problem after Leopard install

Anyone else have a problem printing after the Leopard install?
My printer and driver was recognized but I can't print. When I watch the print queue it say there are errors and fails.
Since HP never made a driver for this printer, I was using a Zenographics driver that worked great. That is, until I upgraded.
I unplugged the USB and power cords, and removed the printer from System Preferences. After plugging everything back in and adding the printer again, the printer seemed like it wanted to print, but still didn't work.
Please help.

Thank you for your answers. I was hoping someone would reply.
HP LJ 1000 is a great printer and I figured a few people had to have one. It is unfortunate as this printer hardly ever needed the toner changed, and I used it as my main printer. I swear I only changed toner four times in the last five years!
I looked everywhere for a driver and found nothing. HP said they had no updated driver for the Mac (as they told me a year ago, too) and they were not going to create one.
My final solution was to give up my printer to a good neighbor for $50 for her pc.
I researched printers from the Apple store and decided to go with the very Mac friendly HP Laserjet 1022:
http://store.apple.com/AppleStore/WebObjects/EducationIndividualCustom.woa/94340 03/wa/PSLID?mco=CC919B84&fnode=home/shopmac/macaccessories/printers&nplm=TC976LL/A&wosid=gG2dihO9R0Mg29v6f901bEeWNf2
Hopefully it will be a good printer. After returning the new toner I bought for the LJ1000, I thought Staples would have it in stock. However, after trying three different stores, it seems the best way to get a Mac-friendly printer is to go online.
I hope I helped you out as well.
Again, thank you.

Officejet Pro K5400 printing problems after update to Mavericks OSX 10.9

Hi,
I have printing problems with my Officejet Pro K5400 after update to Mavericks OSX 10.9.
Now after printing 1 page the printer prints an extra page with '2345X' sentence on it. As this problem started right after updating, I suppose there is a problem with an update.

This patch did solve our problem with the K5400 feeding a "blank sheet".
Thank you.
