Printing settings not holding in firefox

When printing a document from Amazon my Canon Laser D480 wants to print in landscape mode even when I set the parameters in windows to Portrait Mode setting. Printing a MS Word document works properly. Is Amazon sending false printer settings?????
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== All the time

Print settings not holding...

I have a setup where I'm using Reader to open PDF docs that are very large (24" by 36" docs). In previous versions of Acrobat, if I set the print setting to print 'Current View' and 'Fit to Page' these settings would hold between PDF files. So when users Zoomed to a specific portion of the PDF and printed it, they only got the part they were zoomed into - which is what we wanted. The users didn't have to do anything but hit print and click Ok - no settings changed required. Now we've gone to Acrobat X Reader and this 'Current View' setting will not stay put. Is there any way to make this stay? Config file, reg edit, or something?
I am considering the idea of setting up a web page with links to these docs so the users can browse for the file they need and have it open within the Acrobat Reader Plug-In in IE. So I would like to get these settings applied that way as well.
The only other option I can think of is using the Acrobat SDK and really customizing the web pages that way, but I'm not sure if that will give me the level of control needed to do this through the code side either.
Any solutions or other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Keep in mind print settings are stored in the PSD document, so you may be thinking it's not remembering your print settings, when in fact it's rememebering them a different way... In other words, if you print document 1 to printer A then save as a PSD, then print document 2 to printer B then save as PSD, then re-open document 1, the default printer for document 1 will still be A.
Another known problem with some printer drivers is that you have to set the parameters twice in order to get them to stick. This could affect, for example, then number of copies to print. A workaround is to make your changes, then go through the [Print Settings...] button twice (first time to make changes, second time to check the changes).
Hope this helps!

Printing From PSE12 - settings not holding/prints are inconsistent.

Printing from PSE12, MacOS with PSE12 controlling color/appling profile.
Color management does not appear to turn off or disengage within any given print driver.
When selecting Color Matching, both ColorSync & given printer are active, both should be ghosted out.
After printing one image/sheet & printing again & selecting Color Matching within the print window both are ghosted out.
Saving a pre-set does not solve the issue.
Currently prints are not matching when having PSE12 controlling color.
what is causing this issue ? Is it PSE12 ? Is it the OS ? WHAT !
Please help. THANKS

This inability to disable color management is within the OS, right ? Or is it PhotoShop Elements ?
Yes I do have means of controlling color management from a driver stand point but the attempt here is to turn color management off from the OS & driver to allow the app to control color management.
Problem is that when printing and setting/selecting settings to allow this, it appears management is getting miss managed.
And if I set a pre-set within PSE, settings do not hold.
I do not want ColorSync to control color management.
I do not want print driver to control color management.
And settings to not hold from print to print and a pre-set does not appear to hold as well.
What is the fix for this ? Do not use PSE ? Do not use MacOS, This does not happen on a WIN based system ?!?

Printer settings not retained in preferences

Hey Everyone
I need a little help. An error occurs everytime I try to select my Canon MP460 from the printer Preferences menu in the System Preferences window. I click the add button, it shows up with the driver and location filled in the pull down menus/boxes. Then I hit the Add button and a message comes up "An error occurred while tryint to add the selected printer. The printing service is not available."
I have tried holding the control button down and resetting the printer settings. To no avail. I did go to Terminal and type Sudo Cupsd.
That worked and loaded my printer. BUT, after I rebooted the machine, the settings were lost and I received the same error message as above when trying to add the printer again. So it seems I have to go to Terminal everytime I boot and type "Sudo cupsd" to load my printer.
Any thoughts? Thanks (I also trashed the printing preference files (plist) in an attempt to fix this problem, again to no avail.

Fixed the problem. Thanks for reading my question. For those with this problem, I found permissions errors on the org.cups.cupsd.plist file in Launch Daemons, which is strange considering I do not remember touching this file in any way. But after the repair, I opened the System Preferences:Printer and Fax settings. It gave me the error. I used Terminal and typed in "Sudo cupsd" and then my password. This allows the Printer/Fax Settings to be set in System Preferences without any errors. I set the printer as the default in Printer Settings, I restarted and it retained everything.

Why have mac OS 10.5.8 printer settings been restricted in Firefox

When I call for a printing of a page in Firefox, my Epson NX420 will no longer allow plain paper as a media option in printer settings, but only photo and presentation papers; and it allows only the Best Photo option under Print Quality. In both cases, other options are grayed out. Gray Scale is also grayed out.
Why have the grayed-out options become unavailable in Firefox (but not, e.g., in Chrome)? How can I restore them?

Try updating to the latest 23.0.1 version of Firefox, and see how it is.

Printer settings not translating to shared printer

Hello,
I have a HP LaserJet M600 603 printer setup on an SBS 2008 R2 machine. I am sharing the printer out as 'Reception - Letterhead'. In the settings of the printer on the print server (SBS 2008 R2 machine) I have configured the first page to print from
tray 2 and all other pages to print from tray 3. I have two issues happening, depending on if I use the postscript driver or the dedicated printer driver/HP universal PCL6 driver.
Issue 1
I can see Tray 3 in the default printing options when I look at them on the print server. However, when I add the printer as a share on a Terminal Server session (2008 R2) tray 3 is missing. Tray 3 is also missing if I add the printer on a Windows
8.1 Update 1 PC. I figured it might be the driver so I made sure I had a new driver but the problem still persists.
Interestingly, if I add a local printer to my Windows 8.1 Update 1 PC but point it to the IP address of the printer; and use the same driver as on the SBS print server, I can see tray 3. So it appears to me that something is going on when accessing
the printer as a share.
Issue 2
At one stage, before I started trying to resolve why I couldn't see tray 3 on my Windows 8.1 Update 1 PC, everything was working fine from the terminal server sessions. Now, even after reverting to an older driver, the printer settings specified on
the print server do not 'hold' on the printer when added. What happens is that all pages print from tray 2 instead of just the first one. Here are some helpful screen shots.
I'm really confused as to what is going on here and am thinking that I've missed some major piece of the puzzle. It's incredibly frustrating and so I am hoping someone can enlighten me as to what is going on and how to fix it.
Many thanks,
Shane

Hi,
You should indeed set the printing defaults from teh advanced tab/printing defaults.
These settings should be replicated when the user installs the printer (so if they change the setting locally it persists and if you change a setting on the printserver it is not replicated to clients). A common way to get around this is reconnecting the
printers by logonscript. thisof course result in end-users lossign custom configurations when the logon script runs.
As you know, these drivers conain many vendor specific settings and items. Unfortunately not all drivers work very well. I would advice to read through the documentation of the vendor. I know HP has good docs on how to maintain printers in larger environments
and even distributes some custom tools to configure printer specifics and enforce settings.
If you configure default drawers, keep in mind the papertypes and sizes and how the printer handles papertype mismatched (like letter/A4),as well as default configuration of office software and used templates. In the end it is the printer which decides what
drawer to print from. You might as well need to configure the drawers on the printer itself. Most network printers have a webinterface to allow advanced configurations.

Coupon printer will not work in Firefox 4.0 Worked fine in 3.6

I cannot print coupons in the new Firefox 4.0. I had no problem in the 3.6. It tells me to install the coupon printer but it is already installed. Worked fine before.

See if this helps you. <br />

Data Modeler EA1 - Print settings not saved

Is there any way of saving page/print settings?
Getting print settings/layout right often takes several changes in setup, at the moment it appears to make me do it every time I print.

Not for now. I logged enhancement request for that.

Advanced print settings not working in cs6

Since updating to Yosemite, I cannot access the advanced print settings for my Epson 3880. I have the latest driver for the 3880. No longer can select the paper, profile, etc.

Problem Solved:
After uninstalling a previous version of Labview Runtime from the target machines and installing the newest version (which is consistent with my development environment) on the target machines, the Print Report.vi and all other report generation VI's I use seem to work fine.
Also important is to make sure that the lvrt.msi file on the development machine is up to date and consistent with the version of runtime on the target machines. This does not update automatically when upgrading to a newer version of labview (at least not when I updated from 6i to 6.02). It must be manually downloaded and inserted into the proper folder.
Thank you Ray at NI support.

Margin settings not holding on printed page and are jagged

A few days ago, on occasion only, printer began issuing paper jam message when printed page was all but a probably 1/8" already out. Just touching paper really brought the page out the rest of the way.
I did pull out the two-sided paper accessory to look for any paper, but there is no paper jam that I can see.
Also, in the midst of printing sometimes it made a loud grinding (I guess) sound, but kept on printing and sent the page out completely.
Then I began to notice the left margin might slope inward as I look down the page or it may be different from one Word page to another and a little blurring occurs in a word here and there.
Finally, upon printing Excel pages I see a different left margin about what I consider to be every 2 lines. This, of course, affects the right margin in the same manor, and the vertical cell lines also vary according to the variance of the left margin.
The HP software tells me there are no updates for me to download. However, I don't know that it has ever mentioned any. I haven't seen this precise issue listed.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Yay! Smooth margins! At first I mistakenly thought (without looking) the cord would not reach an outlet; so I downloaded the HP Scan and Print Doctor. It told me there was a newer driver. I admit I eventually found myself at a point where it wanted me to "install" as if the printer was being newly associated with my computer. I paused and thought because I hadn't expected a new driver to want me to do a complete re-install. I decided I should just try printing again, and magically it gave me perfect alignment. So I stopped right there. I had used the recommended assisted download. Perhaps I should have switched to the plain download. While I'm not sure exactly what happened, it appears to be nicely fixed.
I thank you very much! I'd not have figured that out on my own.

Hp smart web printing does not work on firefox. HP says this is not their problem and to contact Mozilla. Is there a plug in available?

I just bought a new hp printer. the software has a feature called HP web smart printing. The feature works on explorer but not on Firefox. HP says this is not their problem and suggested I contact Mozilla. Is an add on available and if not will one be made available.
I am using v. 3.6.13. and the printer is HP Officejet 4500.

HP smart web printing is an application that only works with IE. In spite of what HP have told you, if they want their application to work with Firefox they will need to make a version for Firefox. It is not down to Mozilla to make a version of the HP software for Firefox.

Window.print() does not work in firefox 12 version where as the same works in IE

The following is the extract of page source of my application:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><script language='javascript'>
function fncPrint()
document.getElementById("btnPrint").style.visibility="hidden";
document.getElementById("btnClose").style.visibility="hidden";
window.print();
document.getElementById("btnPrint").style.visibility="visible";
document.getElementById("btnClose").style.visibility="visible";
</script>
<td align='center' colspan='10'>
<input type='button' class='button' value='Print' name='btnPrint' onclick='fncPrint()'>
<input type='button' class='button' value='Close' name='btnClose' onclick='window.close()'>
</td>
</nowiki></pre>
This code works fine IE but when used with firefox does nothing, it does not go for printing. I can use Control+P but it will not dim print and close buttons.

You use document.getElementById("btnPrint"), but you only specify the NAME attribute in the input tags and not the ID.<br />
So you will have to add the ID as well to make Firefox find that element.<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><input type='button' class='button' value='Print' id='btnPrint' name='btnPrint' onclick='fncPrint()'>
<input type='button' class='button' value='Close' id='btnClose' name='btnClose' onclick='window.close()'>
</nowiki></pre>

Problem with Office Word 2010 Print Settings not saving

Office Pro Plus 2010 on XP2 x86
I've installed it on a couple of test systems to test our custom macros and vsto ribbons. They all seem to work OK, except for one thing.
The new File>Print screen - it does not remember it's settings. For example, in Word, go to the File>Print screen:
Change Collated to Uncollated and Print.
Exit Word and go back into Word.
Uncollated has changed back to Collated.
Now try the old style print dialogue (in Word 2010):
(Create a macro and run it)
Sub OldPrintDialog()
Dialogs(wdDialogFilePrint).Show
End Sub
Tick\Untick Collate and print.
Exit Word and go back in.
Look at the old Print Dialogue and it has remembered it's setting.
It looks like MS have forgotten to put code in that controls this. It works OK in Word 2000\2002\2003\2007... and will to be a problem for some of our computers when doing scripted printing, e.g. two
copies of a 3 page invoice prints from the wrong trays! It should print 1\1, 2\2, 3\3, but prints 1\2\3, 1\2\3.
And I've tried several different drivers and printers - they all behave the same...
I need to set the collate option permanently to "Uncollated".
Where is this setting stored, or is it a bug?
Thanks
G
EDIT (20110303 16:18): Just took Office 2010 off the invoicing test system and put Office 2003 on - and our invoices print correctly!

Hi,
To specify the settings, follow these steps :
1.
Start Word and open the document you want to change.
2.
Click the Paper tab, you can do that according to the version of MS Office that you are using.
3.
Under Paper, click the paper size you want.
4.
If you want to change the page orientation of the document or its page margins, click the Margins tab.
5.
Select the desired options.
6.
To use the paper size specified in step 4 for only the active section of the document, click Selected text.
7.
Click OK.
Sincerely,
Harry

User Connection Settings Not Holding

When I send a connection key to a user of Contribute 4, the
user is getting the following error when trying to implement the
connection key:
Your connection to this site has been disabled. The
administrative settings for this site are missing or have been
reset.
Typically, but not always, when I go back to "Administer" the
site, my admin role has in fact been dumped, but not sure why .
I am using CPS along with Contribute 4.
Any help is appreciated

I've also been having a weird issue. I've just bought this new 27" and the default iMac profile is causing color discrepancies between images on the web - basically the html background and jpg would not match. I tried everything - and finally narrowed it down to Display Profiles. When I randomly click through them and land on lets say Apple RGB, the problem disappears. no more color mismatch. But the iMac profile seems to be corrupt or badly made. I've settled on Generic RGB for now and it seems to hold.

Acrobat Color Management settings not holding

I am having issues with acrobat 8 & 9 holding the color management preferences on the intel macs we have. I have placed the .csf file in user/library/application support/adobe/color/settings. The .icc profile is in user/library/color sync/profiles. We are using OS 10.5.8 & 10.6.4 both versions are behaving the same. I have used bridge to sync the Adobe suite (AI,Photoshop and Indesign) and that works fine. Acrobat was not installed as part of the suite.

Figured out the issue. The .csf file was corrupt, remade the file and the settings held in prefernces.
