How to print in draft mode with Canon MX432

I am unable to choose draft mode when I print. I can view it, but it is greyed out. My only options are "normal" and "best". I have contacted Canon and they say it is not a Canon issue and rather a setting that needs to be done on my iMac. I am currently running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2. I have tried the print dialog box, settings and the printer web page. Still no solution.
Here is a pic of the dialog box in Safari. I have tried Word, Adobe, etc. They all have draft similarly greyed out.
I would appreciate any suggestions of fixes for this issue.
Thanks!

When you use the Canon driver, the 2 sided printing is set in a different location. There is an entire menu dedicated to it (at least on my mx892). The printer dialog box has a menu selector in the middle of the screen (I think it says "layout" by default). If you click on it, you will see the duplexing options at the bottom. Much more flexibility than the single checkbox available with "airprint". The interface is unusual (at least for me) but you can pre-set up many different configurations (Fast Duplex, Fine Single-sided, B&W, Photo, etc etc.)

Vertical offset problem when printing labels after editing with Crystal Reports

Hello,
We are still using the RDC component of Crystal reports in some of our C++ Software components. Label design is done with a very old Version 8.5 of Crystal, the Clients use the 10.5 runtime for printing.
This was running on Windows XP and Server 2003 for a Long time. Recently we changed to Server 2008 R2 (english) and Windows 7 (de) on the Clients. Again we installed CR 8.5 on the Server for Label design and a 10.5 runtime on the Clients for printing. Now something strange happened. If we just open a Report file with CR on the Server and save it (doing no changes), there is a Problem with printing on the Clients. The line spacing is now wrong. It´s about 5th the value as it should be. This only happens on the Client. The reports still print ok from the preview Windows of CR on the Server.
However, we have to Change Labels. As a Workaround, we installed CR also on one of the Windows 7 Clients. And this is working. We can save Labels unchanged and they are printed with the correct line spacing on the Clients.
Of Course, this should be solved in the future, because the Clients are placed in our production area and it´s not a good place for sitting and changing Labels.
i´v no idea what could be the reason?
Greetings, Jörg

This might be due to differences in default/specified printer (or printer driver) across the machines involved.

How do I print in draft mode on Epson Workforce 3540

I just bought and set up an Epson Workforce all in one printer. Everything is working fine, except that I can't get it to print in draft mode.
I've tried a few different applications and all are the same. When I go to print, I get a window that includes a print quality slider at the bottom that includes three settings: draft, normal, and best. The word "draft" is grayed-out. If I try to drag the slider to it, it snaps back to normal in the middle.
I looked in the printer's manual, and it says draft mode can only be selected with "plain paper" selected. But, even when I have plain paper selected, I cannot choose draft quality. In fact, it seems no matter what I try I cannot choose draft quality.
The printer's owner's manual, it also shows some printer dialog windows that I don't get (I think I did get them with the Epson I just replaced, though).
Can anyone tell me how I can select draft print quality, and why I'm having so many problems doing so? Maybe it's to be expected that the Epson isn't letting me select the print mode quality that would save me the most ink.
I'm attaching a screen capture of what I see when I try to print. It is the first image.
I'm also attaching a couple of screen captures from the printer's owner's manual section on Mac printing. These are the printer dialog windows I don't see when I try to print.
What I see when I try to print (note that "Draft" is grayed-out on the quality slider):
These are what the printer's manual seems to suggest I should see (and what I think I did see with my last Epson printer that I just replaced):
And:

Based on your screen captures I believe you may have selected Apple's AirPrint driver rather than the Epson driver. This can happen if you add the printer by selecting it from the small pop-up window that appears with a heading of Nearby Printers after you click the plus button in the Print & Scan preference pane.
To confirm which printer driver you are using, open the Print & Scan preference pane and select the Epson in the Printers colum. The right pane will give some details about the printer. If there is mention of AirPrint in the printer Name or Kind, then this will be the issue. The fix would be to remove this printer from Print & Scan and add again. But this time, don't select the Epson from the Nearby Printers pop-up. Instead, click on Add Printer Or Scanner from this pop-up window and from the next Default Add printer window, select the Epson in the list and ensure you select the Epson driver in the Use menu rather than the AirPrint driver.

Color management problem when printing

(sorry for the double post, since the problem affect both illustrator and photoshop and in fact also indesign) in decided to repost it here in the photoshop forum. thank you for any help!)
hi ! im in charge of a big print lab in a university. All macpro quad running on 10.6.4, CS5 all updated.
i have a major problem when printing from all 3 CS5 apps : Illustrator (being the worst), photoshop and indesign : each one produces a different print even if i use the SAME color management options (the application manage color using my own color profile file created with a i-one tool from greta macbeath and using eye-one match 3). im printing on a XEROX 7750gx laser printer. very cool printer never had trouble with colors before with it, in any case it was always the software part that was causing color problems (like i suspect in this case).
how can 3 softwares under the same application collection and brand, using the same color profile and options (IDENTICAL ! it's triple check all the options!) can produce 3 different prints when printing the same image (it's a color psd created under photoshop CS5) ?!
i remember having some trouble like this when we first got CS1 in our lab, but not this bad... i've checked everything... i realy don't know how to fix this problem...
the best setting so far is in Photoshop when the application manage the color and using my color profile file in perceptual mode. best output so far, not the best i had in the past, CS4 was way more perfect with color management.
i realy need to find a solition 'cause the students expect the color to be almost perfect (and they almost were using CS4 in the past...
thanx for any tips & help !
+

many thanx for your reply & help.
i've just recalibrated everything in my workflow : my screen (perfect!), my xerox 7750 color laser printer. i've recreated a new color profile file for the xerox color. and the same thing is happening : a kind of pink color all over my prints and every adobe's applications is printing different results. in photoshop i can manage the problem when forcing to print in perceptual mode. not perfect but it's fine. and with the other software specialy like ACROBAT and INDESIGN there's no option like this so it prints very badly. only option is to print in adobe 1998 rgb or SWOP cmyk (depending of the color space of the image of course)... the image is use for my test is RGB. images in CMYK are doing the same exact thing.
by the way for calibration is use an x-rite (greta macbeth) eye-one tool with eye-one match 3.6.3. i calibrate the screens and create color profile with this tool since ADOBE CS1 and never had this much trouble with colors...
here's a capture from photostop CS5 print dialog. when using the option "match print colors" you can see the image with all the PINK NOISE when using the print in RELATIVE colormetric mode (at the bottom right). using perceptual is "fine" (not color perfect but OK).
http://i53.tinypic.com/qzge12.jpg
it's worst in Acrobat and Indesign since i can't use perceptual colormetric print mode...
im realy starting to think that i better uninstal CS5 and go back to CS4...
thanx for your help !

Printing in draft mode from Windows

I locked the com.apple.print.custompresets.plist file so that my printer always use my Draft preset. On Mac OS X, everything is fine but the problem is when I print from my Windows PC (which is in my home network).
To make the printer work on Windows, I followed the steps on this tutorial:
http://www.ifelix.net/tech/3012.html
As the author notes, I used the Apple drivers since my printer isn't post script.
The printer is working from Windows, but since I'm not using the HP driver, I can't set the printer to draft mode.
Any ideas?

Well, you're right, I couldn't get it to work, either (sorry it took so long, I had to wait until I got home to try).
But I can get it to work by setting up a RAW queue on my Mac (which allows me to use the correct model driver on the PC). RAW means the Mac just acts as a print server and passes the input to the output - without filtering/translating.

Printing in Draft Mode Printing

The tip I received to use the Canon MP800 SP2 color profile, as present in the printing module improved the print reproduction quality.
However I had to conclude that the color reproduction (too redish) varies strongly among the photos I printed.
To my surprise when I selected 'Draft Mode Printing' I got the best print reproduction ever! I understood that Draft mode printing uses the cached previews or if necessary the built-in previews, which seems to be acceptable when the photos are small (from Scott Kelby's Lightroom Book).
I am tempted to print in Draft, to finally solve my LR' print repro problem, but would like to understand whether this an option?
Thank you for your advise!

HP LASERJET CP1525nw print error when printing online Gmail emails with Google Chrome

HP LASERJET CP1525nw print error when printing online Gmail emails with Google Chrome. Extra large font sizes and weird formatting issues only when printing emails from Gmail within Chrome. No problems when printing the same email from Gmail+Internet Exolorer or Thunderbird. Using the IE Tab extension in Chrome prints the email correctly but the style of Gmail's message window is completely weird ie: formatting bar is spread out vertically instead of horizontally. I believe it is clear that this is an application specific issue between the HP LASERJET CP1525nw printer and Google Chrome + Gmail. This printing scenario does not occur when printing anything else or when printing via another printer. I would appreciate receiving any suggestions to solve this issue.
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Browser: Google Chrome 15
HP Print driver: HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL6 v5.4.0
Printer is connected by WiFi to 4 computers

Hi AbZu,
You need to contact Google Chromes technical support as this is only an issue with Chrome. You have indicated that the printer functions correctly everywhere else. Check out the link below for Google Chrome technical support. Let me know if you need additional assistance?

How to print in draft mode on laserjetpro CM1415fnw color printer.

Hi, i have a laserjetpro CM1415fnw color printer, how do i print in draft mode to save my black ink?

Hi REMAX2011,
The only other option I can see which might do what you are looking for is on the Services tab.
1. Printer Properties
2. Services tab
3. Device services, and then click on Device and Supplies Status
4. Click the System tab
5. Click on Print Density
6. Adjust Black density till you get what you are looking for.

Problem when printing " " using XSL

I have a problem when printing the "<" .It is always printed as
"<" in the HTML file.
I wish to transfer a Javascript text . I tried
using CDATA . This is an extract of a portion in my XSL File
which uses CDATA.
<![CDATA[
function createLOV(lov_name, array_touse) {
document.writeln("<select name='" + lov_name + "'>");
for (var i=0; i < array_touse.length; i++) {
document.writeln("<option value='" + array_touse[i] + "'>" +
array_touse[i] + "</option>");
}]]>
And this is what the HTML file contains
function createLOV(lov_name, array_touse) {
document.writeln("<select name='" + lov_name + "'>");
for (var i=0; i < array_touse.length; i++) {
document.writeln("<option value='" + array_touse[i] + "'>" +
array_touse[i] + "</option>"); }
document.writeln("</select>");}
I tried using the <xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes"> but in
vain.
If i use < or &x3C; , i still get < in the HTML file.
How do I solve this problem. I'm using XSQL Servlet with JSDK2.1
both running on Sun Solaris2.6 .
Thanks in advance,
Suresh

Currently, the parser does not support the xsl:output and

Problems when printing help topics from OHJ

We have encountered some persistent problems when printing help topics from Oracle Help for Java (Ice Browser).
NOTE: When we print the same source files from Oracle Help for the Web, the printing problems are gone.
(1) Spacing Errors (all printers had identical results)
Text with special formatting (<b>, <i>) often has either too much space or not enough space.
Links often have extra spaces underlined before or after the link, itself.
(2) When printing multiple help topics from the TOC (an entire branch in the tree):
On some printers, no graphics print correctly, but instead print as one of the following: 1. empty box the size of one character, 2. black box the size of one character, 3. black box the size of the original graphic. We could not detect a pattern that caused 1, 2, or 3.
NOTE: all graphics are bit maps (screen captures) that were generated in the same manner.
NOTE: if these same help topics are printed one at a time form Oracle Help for Java, the graphics print fine.
Is this a problem with the Ice Browser?
Thanks for the help,
Wendy Studinski

There are a known issue with the ICEBrowser printing in some circumstances. The laying out of text by the ICE Browser relies on font metrics (being able to measure the width of a run of text in a given font). On screen it looks great, but when printing, even though the GraphicsConfiguration for the printer is being used, these widths are sometimes off, which can result in text running together at boundaries between text styles. We're not sure what to do about this problem, and we've reported it to IceSoft.
Not every font has this problem, so varying the font you are using might help the appearance when printed.
The other problem you report, problems with the images when printing multiple topics, is something that we will look into.

"Problem When Printing" error on Mac Mini

Hi all,
I just recently updated my Mac Mini from 10.3 to 10.4. Instead of Archive and Install I formatted and did a clean install.
I have my printer set up, however whenever I try and print anything from any application I get a very unhelpful "Problem when printing" error, and nothing prints.
I also get the same error when trying to save to PDF.
My printer is a HP Deskjet 3750, and the driver is the one included with 10.4 (as per HP's instruction), but I don't think it's a driver problem as Save to PDF gives me the same error.
I've already tried repairing permissions. Anyone know what could be causing this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Bugger. PSR is often a winner
You could try installing Gutenprint 5.0.1 available from Sourceforge (it's about 15MB). It's an updated version of the included GIMP-Print drivers and may repair/replace/install some of the core files. Otherwise you may have to contact Apple and see if you can get 10.4.9 mailed to you.

Problem when printing booklets prints pages 1,2 and 11 as if I wants to print all

I am using XP and 2000 MS word
I am having a problem when printing booklets from time to time. I get it ready to print in booklet form with 12 pages and my printer gives me the options. “Print all” “current page” “selection” or “pages” Because it is booklet I want to print the first 4 pages to be folded and glued as a small book. When I inter 1-4 as the example shows some times it prints OK but about a week later it prints pages 1,2 and 11 as if it wants to print all. I thought it was the printer but think it could be in some setting of the word program or my computer it self.

Also does this (i.e. prints web pages over several pages despite changing settings) on my laptop at work with an HP printer. This started when I upgraded to Firefox 9.0.1.
