Problem printing Dos-based program in Netware 4.11 environment.

I hope someone has a clue what could be wrong with this workstation:
One pc in our Netware 4.11 network has a network-printing problem. When
this pc tries to send a document to the networkprinter ( HP 8150 ) , he
receives an error-message. "The system could not overlay file
ibm_run.ovl, program initialization failure, Execution terminated"
He gets this error every time the networkprinter is accessed through Dos-
software and if i try to start Rconsole, Filer etc.
A friend of mine told me that the problem could be solved within the
Novell-client. Just change "Short-machine type to IBM". But that is
already the case! I even tried to reinstall the Novell-client, but
nothing works.
A few specs:
It's an Compaq Evo P4, Windows XP Professional SP1, Novell Client 4.90
sp2. Server OS: Netware 4.11 SB SP9.
Please help me out!

Well, the first thing to check is to see if the file IBM_RUN.OVL really
exists in the same directory as the tools you are tryign to execute.
For instance, all those tools are typically in the PUBLIC directory on
the server, and the file IBM_RUN.OVL should be there as well.
It might also be necessary that the PUBLIC directory of the server is
in the workstation's path. Normally, this is achieved automatically
through the login script. But maybe there was some change in your
environment.

Problems printing from other programs after printing using Word automation

I have an application that uses ActiveX to build a Word document. My print VI is attached. The problem that users are reporting is that after printing a report with my application, they can't print from any other programs until they restart their computer.
After my print VI runs, the only other Word automation is Document.Close and Application.Quit. I close all my references religiously and winword.exe closes just fine. I don't know what would be hanging around causing other programs to have trouble printing. One thing I don't like is the ActivePrinter property in Word. It changes the default printer in Windows. This is why I reset it using the printer LabVIEW reports as the default. I tried reading ActivePrinter and storing it in a wire, then resetting it with this string, but then even weirder things happened - the printout got all messed up. This is why I'm using the printer that LabVIEW says is the default.
Has anyone ever encountered anything like this?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Just ran a test and I got a perfect card. Here's what I did.
1 - create the card and type Command-P.
2 - select Stylus Photo R200 under Printer
3 - click on the Advanced button
4 - in the bottom drop down menu select Paper Handling
5 - select the radio button "Use documents paper size: 7.00 in x 10.00 in
6 - now select Print Settings in the 3rd drop down menu
7 - select the type of paper you're using and the print quality you want. I used Photo and High Speed. (also used plain paper for my test)
9 - put a piece of 7 x 10 paper in the printer (yes, you'll have to trip the paper beforehand or use card stock designed for this)
10 - click on Print
11 - when the paper exits the printer quickly put it back in the printer
That will do it. Now there is a caveat. Putting it back into the printer before drying tended to get my leading edge nipped. If you use heaver card stock I don't think that will happen but just be aware. If you wait a moment to put the page, turned over, back into the printer to let the ink dry a bit, all you'll have to do is press the middle button which will be blinking red and that will feed the other side thru when you're ready.

Since the last update I have been unable to print from Firefox. No problem printing from Safari or any other program. I've seen a few responses to this problem but only to people running Windows. I'm on a Mac running v. 10.5.8

Our software vendor tells to use FF 3.5.1. because of some printer issues with their web based program. How safe is it to work with FF 3.5.1 in 2012?

Problem Exporting / Importing print forms with program RSTXSCRP

Hi!
there is problem Exporting / Importing print forms with program RSTXSCRP.
when I transfer print form from one SAP system to other, logo image and some text is missing... what could be the reason?
Maybe there is other way to transfer print forms between SAP systems without using program RSTXSCRP?
Will reward,
Mindaugas

Hi,
when you transfer print forms from one sap system to another, logos are not transfered automatically. these are actually .bmp files which need to be existing in every client. then only when you run your print program logo can be seen in your print output. hence logos need to be created explicitly in every client where you want to run your print program.
thanks,

Does Java support dos based printing

Hi,
I want to print certain bills in a preprinted format. Can I develop an application in Java which allows me to place fields in any position on a paper and print the same in dos mode printing or fast printing unlike windows which is very slow in printing.
The printing is going to be made in Dot matrix printing
Thanking you,
regards,
Arun

Welcome to this forum. Check out the "search" window in the upper right side of this page. It will allow you to search this forum and answer your own question. A quick search of print DOS gave these results:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=256&threadID=353823
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=54&threadID=745849
On viewing these, your best bet is to probably output your results to a text file, then using Runtime.getRuntime().exec() call DOS's print command on your file just created.
Good luck

Problem to print pdf-based forms using Epson printer

Hello,
I need print pdf-based forms using an EPSON FX 2190 printer.
In The sap note 685571 I read that can print PDF-based forms on all printers installed in the SAP system as long as the relevant XDC file exists.
I do not found XDC file to EPSON device type, a Epson fx 2190 do not support postscript.
Can I use this printer to pdf-based forms?
I need that spool request (pdf) have a output immediately on EPSON printer.
thanks in advanced for your cooperation to solve it.
Osmany

I don't think Epson has developed an XDC for ESC/P language. That would be very difficult/long to develop an XDC from scratch. Best solution is to install a new printer. Otherwise you may either use a Printer Description Language converter (PS to ESC/P, or other ones), it probably exists, or call acrord32 in print mode on a Windows frontend or server.

I am afraid you cannot make your scenario work if there is no XDC provided. Maybe you can create one, but I don´t know how difficult that can be or how to do that. Maybe you can get more help under ABAP > Form printing where there are guys experienced with this printing details. Regards, Otto

Problem printing to ricoh aficio 5502 OSx 10.10

greetings, one of my co-workers is having an issue printing in the latest version of adobe acrobat reader,free version build number evades me but we downloaded it yesterday 3/12/15 so it's the most current. he can print most PDF files as long as they are able to be opened in the mac preview app but there are a few that simply cannot be opened with that app and must be opened with reader. any PDf file that he opens in adobe cannot be printed, even the ones that can be printed with the viewer app. the printer is a ricoh aficio 5502, his mac has all updates installed, the latest version of reader and the most current drivers for the printer. every other program is able to print to the printer fine as stated before any PDF that can be opened in preview app can be printed from that app perfectly.
steps i've taken to resolve the issue are as follows
i've deleted and reinstalled the reader app.
i've removed and installed the latest printer driver for the mac
i've installed all updates to the mac OS.
i've checked other programs to make sure they all print and they do.
i've sent the files he's printing to another machine (windows based, no other macs were available at the time to test it) and the file prints fine.
any and all help is greatly appreciated.
james

when i open any pdf file in adobe and click print the file spools, i also shows up on the pending job list on the printer but the printer never actually prints anything. it's almost as if adobe is spooling out garbage and the printer receives it and just drops the data without even trying to print it. i'd fault the printer itself but i can print to it from any other program on this particular mac without any problems, it's only items printed in adobe reader that will not print and it's consistent with any pdf file that we try to print using that program on that mac.
the only common denominator is the adobe reader software.

Quality problem printing in Windows 8.1 with CP1215

Recently purchased new laptop with Windows 8.1 Pro. I have had my printer for years, CP1215, via USB, without having any problems printing to it with Windows 7 Pro. I first noticed that the quality of print I receive out of my printer on the new laptop is darker. The darkness comes from black lines going diagonally across the page. I would estimate at approximately a 2 degree angle. I would also estimate that the lines appear every 4th pixel row. I have attached 2 images, printed on 2 different printers. The one on the top is the one off of my CP1215, the one on the bottom is a color copier in my office. I have zoomed in incredibly on the prints to show the lines. Just never had problems with this printer in pre Windows 8.1 days. Tried installing ljcP1215-HB-pnp-win64-en. Tried uninstalling printer, rebooting, then installing, still same problem. I also have another problem with printing, but suspect it is more of a Microsoft problem. My laptop thinks a network printer goes offline, stopping and restarting the print spooler service seems to fix that. I had to make a .bat file on my desktop to do it, it happens at least 2 times in an 8 hr work day.

Hi paulie99, Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! I understand the printer isn't printing properly from Windows 8.I will be happy to help you. Check your printer driver settings. 1. On the File menu in the software program, click Print.2. Select the driver, and then click Properties or Preferences.3. Click the Paper/Quality tab.4. In the Type is or Size is list box, select the correct media type or size. Set the quality to ImageREt 2400. I have provided a document to install the Windows print driver to see if that makes a difference.Installing the Printer Software in Windows 8.1 for a USB or Network Connection. For the network printer I would setup a static IP address. Please let me know the results if you are still having issues. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.Have a great weekend!

Printing to a Shared Printer in Classic programs

I searched for an answer to this and could not find anything so I am going to appeal for help. I have a Color LaserJet connected via USB to a G4 machine that is sharing the printer. The sharing works fine, all of my machines can access it. The problem occurs when users try to print from some of the older programs that we have that run in Classic mode. When we try and print from these programs, I cannot find the shared printer. I tried to access it via the chooser but had no luck. I will admit that I am not very familiar in navigating or using Classic or any version of OS9 so it is very possible that I am missing something very easy, but I would much apppriciate it if someone could point out what that is. Thanks!!
Joe

You need to install printer drivers on the Classic side for the printer you are using. Your Classic installation also needs to have the necessary extensions for USB installed. The following may also help:

The problem of function-based reuse

I read the quoted text as follows from a book authored by a Microsoft developer. I googled and found a lots of quotes of it, but did not find any explanation.
============
With languages like C, the basic unit of reuse is the function. The problem with function-based reuse is that the function is coupled to the data it manipulates. and if the data is global, a change to benefit one function in one reuse context damages another function used somewhere else.
============
C uses libraries widely,which is of function-based reuse. Can anybody kindly give me a scenario when this problem happens?
Java is typically object-based reuse, and I admit that my question is not a Java one. But I feel it would help to understand more about the concept or benefits of design of Java language. So, thank you to allow me to post this question here,

This is what I got out of reading the quote you posted:
I suppose something like the following could happen:
You (being a general person) have been given a class to modify. You look at the code for the first time and it has a bunch of methods and some class variables in it. Some of the methods use the class variables. How can you be sure if you change the functionality to change a class variable in one method won't affect the other methods when they are used? This problem can be solved by learning what everything does, how it interacts and the correct way to use it. But then again, if you don't think about it and just make changes...Oops!
Perhaps another abstract example would make sense:
Imagine a calculator that could be used by 2 people at the same time? I bet it'd come up with some funny answers :)
I wrote up a short example of this, hopefully it makes some sense:
public class SuperBigProgram
     private int globalVar;
     public static void main ( String[] args )
          new SuperBigProgram();
     public SuperBigProgram()
          System.out.println("I'm a super big program.");
          globalVar = 0;
          //Let's pretend these series of events occur during the program:
          doItHighChanceActivity(); //1
          doItHighChanceActivity(); //2
          doItHighChanceActivity(); //3
          //Whoops super rare event occured!
          doesNotHappenALot();
          doItHighChanceActivity(); //4????    but is really 5.
      * This happens A LOT!
     private void doItHighChanceActivity ()
          superUtilityMethod();
          System.out.println("globalVar: " + globalVar);
      * This utility method does some awesome utility stuff for our Super Big Program.
      * This changes some global data.
     private void superUtilityMethod()
          globalVar++;
      * This does not happen a lot, if at all.
     private void doesNotHappenALot()
          //Hey I don't happen a lot but I'm reusing this really cool utility method that contains global data...
          //Code reuse for the win!
          superUtilityMethod();
}Here is the output:
I'm a super big program.
globalVar: 1
globalVar: 2
globalVar: 3
globalVar: 5

my issue is resolved. i'm getting this problem when i add just java class file to the project. but when i also add the business componets and page component and generate controller class to the project , i can see that import is recognized by the java class file. So i guess i have to delete all the unwanted business components that i have created at the end.
Thanks

Problems printing PDF's using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro

During the last two weeks, I have been unable to print a PDF from my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. They appear okay on the screen, but print as gibberish.
After consulting the forums, one workaround suggested was to print as image. Tried it, also prints gibberish.
Another suggestion to update my printer software, did it. Still prints as gibberish. My priner is an Epston Stylus Photo R220.
I'm a writer, not a software technician. I am not using a bootleg copy of the program, but an educational version, so Adobe won't offer me any advice over the phone without payment.
Anything else I could try before paying?

I have same problem as described above, but not always. Seems to depend on the web page I am trying to print to Adobe. One consistent culprit is Bank of America. Looks okay until I print to Adobe Acrobat 9 or 10. Then it's gibberish. i had to copy to Word and then print Word to Acrobat or printer.
. Various computers,
. same problem with either Acrobat 9 or 10.
. Not a problem printing to Acrobat from a Word or Excel or Outlook document
. Only from certain websites and not the entire page, only the OCR part. The objects: logos, pictures are okay, only text is messed up.
Definitely would like Adobe to fix this.

Problem Printing Labels on Zebra label printers

Hi Every one
(there may be old solution for my problem, if there is, point me
to that)
my environment is oracle 6, windows 2000. server is runnig on
windows NT.
I am generating labels using oracle reports 6 for an application
customised for pharmaceutical company. report has driver report
calls another label generator report. no matter from where i
print the report to zebra S400 label printer, my report builder
crashes. if i run the report from rep file in application, my
application crashes. if i save the report to a pdf file and
print it using acrobat reader, it prints perfectly. if i use any
other application like access, vb etc. they generate label and
print without any problems.
i have the latest windows 2k drivers for the printer. i also
have tried re-install oracle cleint on my pc. the result is
same. applications crash when print using oracle report to label
printer?
has any one come across such a problem? is there a solution for
it?
zebra label printers are pretty much a standard and are being
used in allmost all the client location that my deals with. and
they (printers) number in 1000's. in most of the cases labels
are generated using zpl language in ascii, but why cant oracle
reports print report generated labels to these printers?
zebra has no comments on this, but they demonstrate their
printer capabilities using all other windows based applications
and point back to oracle reports for the problem.
i appreciate any solution, lead, tip to overcome this problem.
thanks and regards
shiv(anand)
dcss, houston

hello,
i would strongly suggest, you consult the metalink knwoledge
base and seach for existing problems. if you can not find
anything, contact oracle support services.
