Problem centering page when printing: Lion and CS 5

Just installed Apple's Lion. Am running Illustrator CS 5.
Went to print a file, chose the center on page option from the new icon in Adobe's Print dialog box. The page does not print centered on the paper. It prints way off!
I can get the page to print to fit the page, borderlessly, which is what I would like to do now; but, I have to select the option to fit in the upper left corner. I am now anticipating problems in the future when I simply want to print a page centered.
This could be an Adobe, Apple, or Epson problem (I have an Epson Stylus Photo 1400); or a combination.
Has anyone else experienced this? Does it happen on other apps? Is there a place to report bugs to Adobe?

Good call! After your post, I did run Software Update, but the only thing there was an iTunes update. I do recall seeing an Epson printer update in the last day or two; but, I don't recall which of my computers called for it. In any case, on this computer, after checking Software Update and finding nothing, there is still an issue printing centered pages from Illustrator CS 5 15.0.2.

Check a printable area of your printer.
Make a (grey) rectangle that is larger than the paper size. Print it,
you'll get a message that some cropping will occur, that's okay. Then take a
ruler and measure the dimensions of the rectangle printed on the paper or
the white borders around the printed rectangle.

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe you need Acrobat Pro for that.

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?

How do I get CS6 to not distort color when using Lion and printing from Epson R2880?

Ever since I up-graded to CS5 , the color has been distorted. It is not an Epson Lion problem because printing from preview or iPhoto the color is perfect.
Adobe has known about this problem since January 23, 2012. Their help people have taken over my computer for hours at a time and not been able to discover the source of the problem
I thought they might have fixed it with CS6 but no luck I chose use CS4 settings because CS4 had worked.
I printed using Printer Manages Color and color matching, epson color. I selected the correct media. The prints came out dark. The yellows turned green and the greens turned blue/green, reds became dull and blues a bit dark.
This is most upsetting because I cannot afford to buy a new printer and ink. Also I should not have to buy new equipment because Adobe cannot make their product work correctly.

If the printer prints colors accurately from Lion apps,which it does, then the problem is in Adobe.
Uh...ok...then the REST of the FREE world is going down the tubes because obviously, Adobe has screwed up?
Some of us are using LR4 and CS6 to print and getting accurate and excellent results with Lion (10.7.3) so the question begging for an answer is why can't you?
Read very carefully what Chris wrote...the odds are REAL GOOD you are NOT using the correct settings...but since you don't bother to show or explain the EXACT settings you are using when printing, we'll never know. Will we?
If the vast magority of the user base is NOT having an issue, to what do you attribute the disconnect? User Error is the single most likely result...
You want help? Or do you want to argue?
I know a little bit about printing and I seem to be able to print with zero issues on a wide variety of Epson printers...you wanna place blame or do you wanna learn how to fix the problem? (clue, the odds are it isn't Adobe nor Epson leading to the problems, it's you bud).

Print setting problem with Pages 09 (4.3) and Epson 840

When printing Pages document I am not able to select Cassette 2 from Print Settings option in Print dialog window. It is grayed out. Cassette 1 is available.
I have checked for updates and checked with Epson tech support. Troubleshooting points to Pages being the culprit. Cassette 2 can readily be selected if printing from other applications.
Any ideas?

Hi Anton,
do you use Read-Only View Objects ?
If that's the case, did you ensure you defined a Key Attribute for each and that you set up the create() method to call setManageRowsByKey(true)
See " [7.9.3 What You May Need to Know About Enabling View Object Key Management for Read-Only View Objects|http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/html/B25947_01/bcvoeo009.htm#BABJEEFA] "

HP Laserjet P3015 double sided - the last odd page prints on the same page when printing two copies

HP Laserjet P3015 double sided printing is set up on Windows 7. When printing two copies of a document, if it has odd number of pages, the last page is printed on both sides of the page. There is no page feed for the last page.
Suppose say there are 3 pages in a document and you want to print two copies. It prints like 1/2, 1/2 and 3/3. The third page (odd number) print on the same page. The last page page does not print on two pages.
It works alright on Windows XP.

Hope that you have configured the correct paper type and size in the printer hardware and also selecting the same paper tray, size, type from the printer driver while printing.
It may be caused due to the job formatting done by the application software or some jobs settings done from the job/application or printer driver. Check by toggling the 'collate' option and also try to print from a different application software.

Intermittent Problem of Corruption when printing PDF files

From time to time I have a problem with text corruption when printing pdf files. Text comes out one character alphabetically later.
For example, a file I printed yesterday contained the text "ONE WEEK VISITOR LICENCE". On printing it again today (on the same computer and printer), it appeared as "POF!XFFL!WJTJUPS!MDFODF". But another attempt immediately afterwards was correct.Here is a scan of the correct and incorrect printouts
I have had this problem intermittently over a couple of years, particularly with pdf files embedded as a frame in a web page.
I am using Adobe Reader 10.1.0 (but the problem has also appeared on earlier versions), Windows XP SP3 with all updates and an HP Deskjet 6980 printer on a wireless link.
Any advice would be welcome

Not sure why this may be happening. But you can try printing the PDFs as an image, which should solve the problem. It may take a little longer to print but at least you will get a correct print.
You can do the same by Clicking on the Advanced button displayed on the Print dialog and checking the checkbox for "Print as Image".
Hope that this fixes the issue.

PDFs are always scaling to fit the page when printing, after OS X 10.9 upgrade

Hello,
When I try to print a PDF on a sheet that is larger or smaller then the page size I have selected in Acrobat, it always reduces or enlarged it to fit, even when I tell it not to do any scaling. Please see my step by step process below for more details on how I am sending the file to the printer.
Preface:
This problem began after I upgraded my Mac OS to 10.9, and it only applies when I print from Acrobat Pro to our poly platesetter (I work in the prepress department for an offset printer). I have Acrobat Pro 9 and 11 on my computer, and I have the problem using either one.
• I do not have this problem when printing from InDesign, or any other CC application.
• I can print to our four other printers (desktop or copiers) from Acrobat without any scaling problems.
Description of the problem:
This is an example of a file I may need to print, a #10 envelope. The sheet and document sizes are in red.
The 'Page Size' is 4.13" x 9.5" and I have it set to print 'Actual size.' I have also tried 'Custom Scale' at 100%, but I still have the same problem. The preview in the print dialog is correct. It should just print the envelope, not the cropmarks that were on the PDF. I've sent down countless envelopes this way before I upgraded to 10.9 without any trouble.
Above is a screenshot of the file after it has been ripped at our platesetter. You can see it reduced the entire document to fit on the selected page size. The cropmarks should not be there, and it shouldn't have reduced the artwork.
I also have the opposite problem of my artwork being enlarged if I send something down that is smaller than my selected page size.
I know this a very specific problem, so I understand that I may not get much help on it. Thanks in advance for any help you may offer. I have workarounds, but this is really slowing me down, and if I accidentally plate something that was reduced or enlarged can be a very costly mistake if it get printed that way.
My Equipment:
• Early 2008 - Quad-Core Mac Pro 2.8 GHz
• I use Abobe CC applications, but I've tried Acrobat 9.0 as an alterative to Acrobat 11
• Our platesetter is: Mitsubishi SDP-Eco 1630 IIIR
with a Harlequin RIP 9.0 Revision 0
Thank you in advance for any insight you may have.

A workaround I found for my Fiery RIP if insist on using Acrobat XI:
In Acrobat's Print dialog, set:
Choose paper source by PDF page size = ticked
Use custom paper size when needed = ticked
In Page Setup, set Page Size = your custom size, i.e. 4.13" x 9.5"
In Printer, open the Fiery driver properties and set Paper Size = your custom size, i.e. 4.13" x 9.5"

How to print within the margins of the page when printing from iPad to HP Envy D410a?

When I try to print something from the iPad, either the 1 or the 2, the result is that the image sent from the iPad is printed Borderless, which of course results in parts of the print being cutoff, is there someway to resize the print through the printer, since the iPads don't have drivers?
Also, I seem to have a similar problem when printing from my PC, only in it's case the resulting print is smaller, it seems to print into a margin size of 1" on all sides. The only app that I have found that lets me override this is Adobe Reader which has the page scaling options.
All suggestions will be appreciated. TIA.
Stephen.

Missing pages when printing images

Hi,
I'm fightig against a very strange problem when printing. When drawing images with g2.drawImage often everything is ok.
But sometimes the output is incomplete - perhaps all pages after # 2 or # 7 are missing. Or no pages are missing but some images and later drawen elements of the affected pages are missing - next page will be ok.
Printing 15 pages with 1 image per page goes wrong 2 times of 12 trys.
Facts:
- image is loaded completely (from database)
- there are no ignored Exceptions
- Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler is used - without response, as expected
- all pages are requestet by print(Graphics g, PageFormat pf, int pi) and processed without errors
- jdk 1.4.2, 1.5.0_04, 1.5.0_06 compatible ...
- using g2.create() for the image doesn't help
- problem exists on all printers which testet and Adobe-PDF-"printer"
- increasing memory doesn't help
- it seams as doubleBuffering=off will increase correct pages before get one damaged/missing
- WinXP SP2
Any idea?
Thanks
Stefan

Thanks ! - and you are most "welcome" "lera1981" ! .........
With respect to the printing problem with Reader 9.x and your report of your experiments with Reader 9.x and with network-printing then I tend to agree with your assessment that it would seem as the problem is probably with Reader 9.x's printing capeability .
Just for the record I would like to report that my experience with network-connected office-class HP printer has been that some printing problems I've seen in the past with Adobe Reader X.xx has been rectified though the change of driver-type and/or driver-generation such as a switch from e.g. a "PCL 6" driver to a "PCL 5" driver . Last time I experienced a printing problem with a network-connected office-class HP printer I then had to change the driver to their "HP Universal Print Driver".
While I would say that you are probably right that a change of printer-driver would not make a difference in your case then the point of my writing is that Adobe Reader X.xx or (it's interaction with) Windows seems to be "printer-driver tech-sensitive" understood as that Reader printing tends to respond differently to different "driver tech" !

Cp 1700 skipping pages when printing

I do not know if the problem comes from MS Excel or a printer issue but, when I go to print a multiple page spread sheet the first page prints and the rest are blank.
Sometimes, but not on every skipped page I will get a page number printed.
Help.

Hello Imajene,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having some issues with the printer skipping lines when attempting to print.
Please click on the following link for Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP ENVY 4500 and HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3540 e-All-in-One Pr....
Once you have completed the steps in the document, try doing a stand alone Copy and see if you have the same results. If the issue is resolved when doing a Copy, then try printing from the computer. If the issue reappears when printing from the computer, then this could be an issue with the software or a possible interruption from a Windows Firewall or Anti Virus program.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
