Problem with barcode print in Adobe From

Hello All,
We are using Adobe Forms to print our shipping labels and this as been working well for few years now. These labels include readable text and barcodes. The barcodes are 1-D but recently we now have a need to print 2-D barcodes.
We are able to print PDF-417 as a 2-D barcode on the form, but when we try to print Datamatrix barcode, the barcode does not show and instead we just see the text which should have been encoded as 2-D barcode.
We analyze the spool output file on the server to check the correct print controls are being sent to label printer. Our printer is a Zebra S4M using ZPLII. We send test form to our printer which will print two barcodes only (both 2-D), one is PDF-417 the other is Datamatrix. The spool output when viewed in Wordpad, is as below:
^XA
PRALH0,3
^XZ
CI13XA
^LL1219
^FO127,102
^BY3,,203
^B7N,,5,,,N
FHFD1234567890
^FS
^FO127,356
FHFD1234567890
^FS
^XZ
The ^B7 print control is the barcode PDF-417 control code. The Datamatrix control code ^BX is missing and should appear where there is an empty line. If we edit the spool output file and add the missing control code sequence, and then reprint the spool from SAP, then the Datamatrix 2-D barcode prints correctly.
So for some reason, the .zpl spool output file is not being generated with the ^BX control code sequence for the datamatrix barcode. We cannot find any information on why this is so.
We are running ECC6 SP11 (single stack) and ADS is running on a separate dual-stack BI system (NW2004s SP21).
Our Zebra S4M printer firmware is V53.17.6Z, and printer driver is ZebraDesigner 2.6.42 (Build 2382). Our SAP device type which is assigned is AZPL203. Our ADS version is 7.00.21.0.
We are seeing the same problem if we print test label from ECC or BI system. ECC kernel is 700 patch 266. BI kernel is 700 patch 254.
We have found SAP Notes related to incorrect ZPL format in ^BX for NW7.1 and NW7.1 EhP1, but not for NW7.0.
Has anyone else come across a problem like this before? Any advice would be much appreciated and duly rewarded.
Thanks in advance
George

Issue is resolved.
We updated our ADS to 7.11.5.0

Problem with pdf-printing in Adobe Acrobat Pro

Hi,
I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.4.3.
PDF-printing has always worked great but suddenly there is some kind of problem.
After printing a excel-document from "Print to pdf" built-in function in MacOS OR Adobes Printer I have corruptet pdf-files when showing them in Adobe Reader/Acrobat, but the MacOS Preview-software shows them correct.
So, there cannot be any problem with the printing, but the local preview on my computer using Reader or Acrobat. I dont even use the Myriad font in the document, I use Verdana.

You say you're using Verdana but you're not. The error message clearly shows you're using MyriadPro Bold.
You probably recently installed the Mac OS X 10.6.7 update which has a bug with OpenType PostScript fonts like MyriadPro Bold. Either use Verdana or another TrueType or PostScript font, or revert to Mac OS X 10.6.6.

Problem with Barcode printing in smartforms

Hi Gurus,
I have made changes to the system barcode height in SE73 from say 1.3 to 0.7 cm. But when I take the printout from the barcode printer I am getting the barcode with old height.
My concern is do we need to do change anything with the printer settings. If so, where and how? who has to do that?
-B S B.

Hi,
But how do we reduce the height.
I changed the height of the system barcode (device independent).
Print preview looks fine. But when actual printing takes place still the barcode retains original height.
Could you please explain me in simple steps?
SAPHelp is more confusing.

Problem with quick printing multiple .pdfs from Outlook 2010

Hi there,
I have a user who is having problems printing multiple .pdf's using the quick print function in Outlook. I have tried reader 9,10 and 11.
11 errors when printing (nothing specific in the error message) and only 1 or 2 documents are printed.
9 and 10 error and report that a file is missing. Yet again, often prints 1 or two of the files.
I have reproduced the problem on my own PC.
Is there some type of bug with Adobe Acrobat printing multiple files using the quick print function within Outlook?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Will

I am not very skilled in Adobe by any means, but I was having the same issue. When I did the Control P to print, I went into Print Options, then into Properties. Under Adobe PDF settings, I unchecked the box that said "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts." and that worked for me.
Hope it helps.

Hi
I have a problem with color prints from photoshop elements 12. The pictures are too light and with strange colors. I have a Canon pixma mg615I0 printer and use mac os X yosemite. The pictures are taken with a coanon eos 550d in the color space sRGB. I have followed adobes recommendations and have tried both letting the printer respektive photoshop manage the colors. But nothing works. I see that there are different opinions about which is best to do so I tried both. I have the latest printer driver installed. Can anyone help me with this?

Do the following:
Print a test page from the printer. Perhaps the print head needs cleaning via its maintenance facility.
Let the printer manage colors, not PSE
Calibrate the monitor

Problems with 'Order Prints' from Aperture 2.1.3 Mystery borders

*Some background:*
I've been using Aperture for about 3 months now, importing most of my iPhoto library into the program. I have only recently started shooting in RAW format, most of my photos image files are in JPG format. In the past, I've had no problems with obtaining prints from within iPhoto or to a limited extent Aperture. So, far as I know my program is up-to-date. I have 2 plugins installed: Aperture2twitter and *flickr export Lite* both of which work acceptably.
*The problem:* I ordered 317 4×6 prints from my aperture library.
Every photo has a 1/4″ border on both sides of the image, i.e. the printed image is only 4×5 1/2″. I have never ordered this quantity before, but I don’t believe that was the problem, it appears that the processing machine was misaligned and no one reviewed the prints prior to shipping.
I tried again, on 4 different images ... all JPG files with 3 out of 4 were OK, but one exhibited the "border" issue.
I haven't a clue what is going on here. Apple implied +(via email)+ that I would have to individually crop every photo to ensure proper aspect ratio. This makes no sense to me at all, as I have never had this kinda problem before.
Could the plugin(s) be interfering with the s/w? Is there a trick to having photos printed from within Aperture that was not present in iPhoto?
Any thoughts on what the problem is would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
-john

I believe that I've solved this problem, with the help of the folks at Apple who handle Aperture tech support using the Aperture support ID that came with the product.
So the short answer is: Aperture print services REALLY DO REQUIRE the image to be cropped (constrained as they say) prior to the data being sent to Apple Print services.
Here is the link that describes cropping http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1993?viewlocale=en_US
The process as described is cumbersome, but the support tech pointed out that in Aperture, crops are 'non-destrutive' and can be undone simply by removing the check mark on the Adjustments tab of the image you crop. *This means that you do not have to make a duplicate image for cropping.*
So, here is the process that I arrived at to ensure that my "order prints" job turned out:
1. create an album of all the photos you want to submit for printing.
2. for each image call up the Crop HUD by pressing 'c' on the keyboard.
3.select the aspect ratio that you want for your photo. Make sure that it does NOT SAY Master Aspect Ratio, or Main Display Aspect Ratio.
4. Crop the photo
on the adjustments tab you can see the X and Y data and Height / Width information which can be undone.
5. Submit your print request to Apple for all the cropped photos.
When the prints arrive, you can compare the prints with the submitted photos. They should all be good. You can then delete the album (since it really is not a physical thing) or keep it for reference.
It all seemed a bit arcane to me, as I never had to worry about this in iPhoto. It must be that iPhoto sends different data than Aperture. I have just received 200 + prints back from Apple Print Services with about 98% success rate. I just have to adjust my thinking and my process when dealing with Aperture.

Bizarre freezing problem with FireFox & printing from Wikipedia

The Suspects:
Mac Pro
OS X 10.4.11
Firefox 2.0.0.13
wikipedia.org
Brother HL-5240
I bought a Brother HL-5240 laser printer a couple months ago and I'm really happy with it. A couple minutes ago I went to print some stuff from apple.com, then I went to wikipedia.org to print out some pages there. Immediately after clicking "Print" in the print dialog box, I got everyone's favorite spinning cursor.
Huh... weird. I've never had a problem with this printer. I wait a little while, but Firefox is completely frozen up, which is ok since I accidentally printed the normal version and not the "printable version." I force quit and reopen. I try it again, this time with the "printable version" with the same result, spinning cursor, everything frozen. Force quit, reopen.
Now I decide that I'm going to try to save it as a PDF from the print dialog. Again, same result! Everything is frozen!
Time for Safari, it prints everything just fine.
Anyone else run into this utterly strange problem?

Problems with our copy of Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional.

We have two problems with our copy of Adobe Acrobat proffesional which we have recently re installed back on the same PC following so we thought the relevant transfer activation instructions.
The first is that when we first start the program with no file loaded Both Transfer Activation and Activate Acrobat are greyout out. This in tiself is not a problem but it may have a bearing on our real problem.
We have for a few years used Acrobat Proffesional successfully to sign released drawing files which have been 'printed' to a PDF file by a third party printer driver. Recently though when we try to load any of this type of file the Acrobat menu stays greyed out and both Adobe Acrobat and the PDF file are listed in Windows task manager. Acrobat is completely locked up and has to be exited via task manager. If I load PDF files from other sources the abot symptoms accur only briefly then the program menus re activate and the PDF file disappears from task manager. It is as thought our PDF drawing files are failing to complete loading.
Does anyone know how I can find out if our copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro 7.0 is actually activated?
Does anyone know what might have started to prevent out drawing files from loading.
Thanks
Chris

Good point but this one does require activation.
Our real issue is that if we load one of our own drawing filkes, even one previously edited or signed with no problems it now completely locks up Adobe acrobat and we cannot do anything at all in Acrobat.

CUPS problems with PDF printing

I am having all manner of problems with PDF printing. Recently added a Lexmark MX710 and have 7 machines that were previously printing fine to an X652de a T652 as well as a Samsung CLP770. All network printers.
Now there are bizarre issues with PDF printing. CUPS version 1.6.1. The MX710 will blue screen and reboot when printing one specific pdf without fail. There are all kinds of random nonsensical results when printing from different locations. A pdf that stalls the X and T652 with "filter error" will print from my own machine to the same printer, using the same versions of cups, .ppd file, and everything package related to cups.
Yet other PDF files will print, while some print complete gibberish, I can't find any rhyme or reason or anything predictable about any of it other than to say printing postscript files works fine all around.
This has been universally in KDE printing through Okular.
I've tried some things I've found suggested, such as modifying the mime.conv as suggested by an old ubuntu thread, adding the a2ps package, all to zero effect.
Last edited by TheWretched (2012-12-08 00:27:41)

At this point the only reasonable explanation I can think of is that the ppd package I downloaded and installed via included shell script from lexmark for the mx710 caused this whole catastrophe. The only common thread for this problem starting was that I used this on all of the affected machines and they now all manifest problems. And on four of these machines this is literally all that was done, they were loaded in september, have not been updated via pacman in any way, and are running the exact same version of cups poppler, and okular that they were then, which was working, and now cannot print pdf to any printer at all without causing one of several problems depending on the printer.
I cannot seem to get this reversed though. I've gone so far as to force remove all the cups packages, and delete the files associated with the install script, but the problem remains afterward. From what I can see so far all this lexmark package did was display a license agreement, then copy the ppd files in it's folder to /usr/share/ppd/Lexmark. This particular printer, the mx710 has no .ppd available that I have found other than this one from Lexmark directly. Open printing doesn't have anything for this model.
This printer's driver has some kind of a cups filter driver with it that the install script presumably installs, I suspect this could be what caused the problem specifically, but I must not be removing it correctly, despite following the file removal suggestions in the Lexmark readme for uninstallation. CUPS printing is something I am new to and only have a basic understanding of.
To answer some specific questions I nearly forgot, I don't have cups pdf installed. I have chrome installed which can successfully save pages to PDF, previously it could also print pdf, and presumably it prints everything as pdf given the cups pdf workflow. That is also broken now too, so printing from the browser causes the printer to fail as well. If I save as pdf from chrome, and print with adobe reader, it works.

Problem with HP Printer Utility and Mac OSX 10.5.4

I have a problem with HP printer Utility. When a standard user adds a new paper profile HP Printer Utility asks to type an administrator's name and password to allow HP printer Utility to make changes. Is it possible to avoid this?

Problems with HP printer and PSE 11 (was bill v)

When using my HP 7020e photosmart printer and Adobe photoshop elements 11, I get a very small white border on the prints. I have set for borderless printing. Adobe says the print size is 4.2 x 6.18 instead of 4 x 6. Any suggestions?

I had already set it to borderless but it still prints a very small white
border. HP had no solution. I am ready to send the printer back to them.

Problem with my printer "sorry not recognised"

Dispite posting the problem i had after MUCH hard work and searching for how to do this, i never got a reply (i thought this was a support forum), i hate to say it but support from HP has seriously gone down hill, i have a problem with my printer which is in warrenty can i send and email NOOOOOOO cos i have to put S/N and product number i put them in but i get "sorry not recognised" How the hell are you meant to get any support when they make 99% impossible to to post and email them i am sorry HP but your support is a shambles, your heads should be hung in shame.

Same problem and the same printer, Yosemite not recognize the printer (which I think is incredible, Windows was better in these areas to get a new OS).
Some advice from those who have been mentioned here and do not solve the problem?
If I had known I stay with Snow Leopard, worked best on Imac mid-2010.
Very unhappy with Apple, had understood that they were more serious and respectful to customers.

PROBLEM WITH LOGO PRINTING IN REVERSE DIRECTION

HI,
When Ever I take the print out of the checks, The company logo is getting printed in reverse direction, but if i look at the print preview , it is showing up correctly. even if i take the print out of just the logo from SE78, the logo is getting printed out in reverse direction...I think it is the problem with the printer settings, but i m not sure. Can any one please help me out with this issue,
Regards,
Raghu

Hi,
Are you trying to get this print directly from the backend or some frondend application triggers your form? As I also faced same problem many a times but then observed that when smartform was triggered from frontend, logo was always in its right position.
