Problems printing to Konica Printers with Mavericks

Mavericks apparently has greater security and isolates or sandboxes various activities of the operating system. Konica has not upgraded their drivers. There are a number of work arounds, but they all relate to a standalone printer. I use a group printer at work and was out of luck since we need to authenticate our use of the printer through the driver on our individual computers. Konica finally posted a simple work around for the time being. If you go to print something in any of the affected apps in Mavericks (i.e., pages, preview, safari, etc.) the print driver will appear in the print dialogue box. If you go to the working or finishing options, they are typically grayed out. I was freaking out. But, at the bottom of the list there is a printer options that isn't grayed out. In it are something like 15 options. Within all of these are the various parameters that you want to print with, including authentication. Set it up the way you want it, and then save it as a custom preset (near the top of the diaglogue box). It remembers the set up for you and you are good to go. Everytime you want to print, go to the preset and everything works like a charm.
I hope that this helps any of you that are still frustrated with this iss

Printer won't work with Mavericks

Since downloading Mavericks, my HP printer won't work--at the office AND at home. Please help.
I've done everything I think was suggested from removing HP software, reseting printing, factory default of printer--everything!
Please help!

I guess from reading your message that Mavericks just hasn't got the drivers from HP to support this. You don't specify what model printer you are using but I would suggest that this issue here is that either your PH printer is an old model or that you need to go looking towards the HP website and see what their responses are to providing the appropriate drivers. You're not alone sadly and this is the problem when you move forward with the times and the ancilliary equipment you have come to rely on is no longer up to speed. Good luck!

Print to two printers with one command?

Is there a way to print the same document to two printers with one command? I'd like to have every document I print automatically saved as a PDF at the same time.
Thanks,

That would be a good use of the PDF Services available in OS X. You can use PDF Services with AppleScript or an Automator workflow.

Printing setup two printers with airport

I've been reading through some of the other messages and still don't know exactly how I should set up my printers with airport. Here is what I have now:
HP 1200 printer plugged directly into the airport express usb port.
Airport express plugged into router via ethernet.
G3 desktop hardwired via ethernet to router
Epson color printer connected usb to the G3 desktop.
Powerbook accesses internet, network and HP printer
iBook accesses internet, network and HP printer
G3 desktop can access int., netw., HP printer and Epson Coloor printer.
But...
I don't know how to access the Epson Color printer from the PowerBook or the iBook.
Not sure how to even start without messing up everything else that is working perfectly.
thanks for any suggestions,
charlene

On the G3 go to the Sharing pane of system preferences. Click on "Share printers from this computer"
Print something on the iBook. When the dialog comes up click on the name box. After a while you should see a selection for "Rendevous" or "Bonjour" printers. Click on the Epson that you will find there. It will create a new menu item to allow you to print.
However, the G3 must be on to print to it!

Exporting problems on final cut X with mavericks

I am trying to export a 94 minute project thru share to a master file & it hands at preparing media. Threw away preferences, don't see any yellow triangles n any clips. Any way to get this to work? I have a 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon and I'm working with Mavericks.
Thanx

My mother often had occasion to tell me that I had just started the job instead of talking about it so much I'd already be done. I suggest doing anything BUT what I advised if you have a faster, more likely solution but again, in my limited experience when there are no yellow triangles and no obvious cause for a problem, there is a whacked clip. If, for instance, you can look over the clips sizes you may find one that is a totally non-standard size. Or perhaps one is done with some odd container that is causing an issue. You may be able to pick out the odd clip or it may be a third party transition or effect. Or something entirely unrelated to my suggestion. All I can add is that you might want to look at the specs of your clips...perhaps copy the entire timeline and work on a copy of it...toss out any third party effects or transition or whatever and see if it might be them. That approach can make a person crazy which is why I suggested just exporting half the timeline. It's really quite effecient if you can't make educated guesses as to what might be causing the problem. I'm assuming you've trashed prefs.

Problems printing to HP printers using Bonjour and XP

Good afternoon all
I am unable to print from my ThinkPad X61 PC laptop running XP (Service Pack 3) to either of my HP printers (Laserjet 6MP and PhotoSmart C3180) connected to my Airport Extreme via a USB hub. They work fine from my MacBook running Snow Leopard, or when directly connected to my PC.
I am able to install both printers using Bonjour Printer Wizard (and recognize them through Airport Utility). I then print a document, it spools to the print queue, then generates an error saying the document failed to print. I have tried it without the hub with the same result.
I have reinstalled Bonjour and the printer drivers and followed the Printer Troubleshooting Guide procedure to no avail. I have also tried the TCP/IP port creation which did not work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yours
Sam

Hi Pahu,
Thanks for you reply. Here's some additional information because I'm not quite sure how to resolve the network addressing as you described. The router is set up as a DHCP server, using the standard 192.168.1.1 IP address, and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 The starting IP address is 192.168.1.100, and I have it set to allow up to 50 connections. (No particular reason, I think that may have been the default.) The printer is set up to check a variety of connection protocols, starting with DHCP. If that fails, it moves to BOOTP, etc. When I print the network configuraton page from the printer, it tells me the IP address is 169.254.18.32, subnet mask 255.255.0.0, default gateway 169.254.18.32, and the IP is configured by AUTOIP.
In the past, when it has been working properly, the printer shows an IP address of 192.168.1.10X, usually .100 or .101, but it depends on which device I've powered up first. This is what I would expect, given that the printer should be communicating with the router and be assigned an IP address by DHCP. What I can't figure out is why the printer reverts to its internal default IP address 169.254.18.32, and why this is inaccessible even if I try to designate the printer as an IP printer and type in the printer's IP address.
Do I need to set the printer to refresh its DHCP lease more often to ensure it doesn't get cut off by the router? How do I make sure the printer stays on the same subnet as the computers if they're all on the same router? Should I assign the printer a static IP address like 192.168.1.100, then set the DHCP range to start at 192.168.1.101? Sorry to ask so many questions, I'm not a network expert and I didn't think this printer would be such a pain to configure.
Cheers,

I am heading out now to purchase a printer that is compatible with Mavericks. Amy suggestions?

Any suggestions as to what printer/scanner might work well with Mavericks?

I shall beg to differ. I also start my printer software from System Preferences and the scanner works fine from there. I have also received updates via Software Update, in the usual way.

Canon Pixma MP460 printer doesn't function with Mavericks

I upgraded my MacBook Pro to Mavericks over the weekend, and discovered this morning that my printer (Canon Pixma MP460) is not functioning with the new OS. I haven't been able to find software or driver updates on either the Canon or Apple sites to fix this problem, and urgently need access to the printer and scanner functions. I was able to upgrade via the Canon website in the past (e.g., when I upgraded to Lion), but am having no luck this time. I also haven't been able to set up the printer for wireless printing on our network since the previous OS upgrade. Any suggestions for either or both problems?

Great news!!!! I just installed OSX Yosemite and the new OS works with my HP 4070 Scanner. Seams like the solved the problem. Saves in PDF, JPG, and I suppose in it will work in other formats as well. I am guessing it will work with other brands, like Canon, etc.
Problem solved!!! Just wait for the new OS or download the Beta version that is open to non developers.

Problems uploading photos in Safari with Mavericks

I have a 13" 2013 MacBook Air that I updated last night.
The update included Mavericks and a new version of Safari.
Now, I have major problems when trying to upload photos. Updating my Twitter avatar, for example. For whatever reason, the finder box opens, nothing shows and then it gets stuck and Finder crashes.
Each time this happens I have to force quit on Safari and start over. It always works the second time (if Finder isn't still stuck). It seems like I need a fresh browser instance for it to even work.
Anyone else experience the same or is it limited to me?

You probably have a corrupt .plist file. To fix:
1. Hold down the option key.
2. In the Go menu in the Finder, scroll down to Library
3. In Library, find Preferences
4. In Preferences, find com.apple.doc.plist and drag it to the trash
5. restart
6. you will have to reenter your preferences.
7. you also seem to have some problem with your keyboard- a lot of random letters appearing and not appearing when you type.

Trouble printing to Canon printers with the PRISMAsync controller.

I've recently upgraded from InDesign CS6 to CC. I haven't had any issues with CS6 when printing to either of my printers. InDesign CC, however, is throwing all kinds of media and size errors on my PRISMAsync controllers! Below is a screen capture of what the print driver says when I go into the printing preferences:
On the controller side, it either says multiple media, or invalid media. Changing the media size in the driver sets the print size within InDesign to "Defined by Driver" and the size to the smallest the controller can see (which is something like 6x4). If I override the settings within InDesign, I get the errors again. However, if I set the driver to a preset page size twice in a row, the InDesign print window shows the correct size under "Defined by Driver" and the file seems to print. This is fine only if I'm using a standard page size, but I cannot print to custom sizes on either machine using the PRISMAsync controller!
Anybody else have this issue, or perhaps a fix or workaround?
I'm using InDesign CC 2014 on Windows 7 x64. The driver version for the C7010VPS is 3.1.0.0. I've already tried reinstalling the print drivers and resetting all my print settings.

We would normally recommend that you export PDF/X-4 from InDesign and print the resultant PDF file to your printer from Acrobat!

Is anyone having issues with printing to network printers with 10.8.4?

I have upgraded our schools to Mountain Lion. Ever since the beginning of the year we have had issues with network printers. They are all HP printers, when they go to sleep a user has to turn off the printer and turn it back on then resend the print job. Now users are being asked to put a password itno the Print Operator group. This never happened before. Cups is changing the queue names to MCX_1 or 2 etc. Not keeping the queue name. All these people are in WGM and have printers set for their group. So I have reset the printer settings on the machines, then restart relog in and get the list of printers they can print too and within 1 day they are unable to print. I am trying my very best to get this issue fixed and all solutions have been exausted. So without having to go to every computer and going into the Ldadmin group thru a terminal, is there anything that anyone has done to fix this issue with out visiting every computer. Thank you.

The printers failing to wake from sleep is an issue. A print request should be waking them.
You have not mentioned what printer server is involved. I could assume it is OS X Server since you mentoned WGM, but it would be nice to have you confirm this. Then I can start to suggest some actions.

Problems printing perforated greeting card with PS D7260

I'm making Christmas cards on photo quality note paper - 2/page. When I print the second side, the paper gets stuck and the perforation comes apart and I have jam. One half jammed and the other half in the paper feed. With my previous printer (I think it was a 8190 - not sure) I never had a problem. How can this be correct? I hate the thought of printing my cards on half fold photo quality card paper and having to cut.
Any suggestions?
Helen

I would suggest detaching the cards before printing. Break the cards in half and then load them in the printer. Select the proper paper size for the half cards.

Alignment problems printing direct to DVD with Epson R220

I know this question isn't specifically related to iDVD but I wondered if someone could help please?
I recently bought an Epson R220 printer to print direct to DVDs created with iDVD as I know labels stuck onto DVDs are best avoided.
However, using both the bundled Epson Print CD software and 'disclabel', I find the print is about 1cm off centre. I'm really surprised by this, as I thought these machines would just work out of the box - detecting through the software where the centre of the DVD is? I've tried everything to remedy this (including the position adjustment within Print CD which allows up to 5mm fine-tuning). The problem is I need more than fine tuning - the print is way off!
I'd be interested to hear from anyone who has an R200 or R220 and might have had a similar problem as I've spoken to Windows users with the same printer, who report no such hassle.
Many thanks,

Thanks Hardy - really appreciate the links to the Epson site. I've tried using the manual settings as you suggest, and I've certainly witnessed a vast improvement. Basically, it seems that if I alter the position adjustment slightly and then opt for a manual print, the disc is centred no problem. It isn't quite up to the edge of the disc - there's about a 2mm gap, using one of the templates from the Print CD app. Have you noticed this also - or does the image print right up tight against the edge of the disc?
If I go back and opt to just 'Print' from the first menu that appears after selecting File>Print, (i.e. not using Manual to print) the image is consistently about 15mm off centre - I've tried this on a dozen tests. However, using 'Manual Print' this isn't the case. I wonder if there is a glitch here in the latest edition of EPSON Print CD (V1.4), in that you seem unable to specify 'Page Set Up'?
I've also gone back to the excellent disclabel application. Here I find that if I change the 90% default under page set up, to 100%, the disc is also aligned correctly.
Thanks very much Hardy for taking the time to work through this one with me - much appreciated.

Problems printing labels and envelopes with related names

When I try and print out labels for Christmas cards from Address Book, the program creates the first line of the label with the name on the Address Book "card", plus the names of the "Related Name" entries on the card. This works for most cards except in the following situation.
The Related Name field (Spouse, Child, etc.) does a 'fuzzy lookup' to match other cards in the Address Book database. If there is another card with the same name as one of the related names, the address is checked to see if the address matches. If it matches (or if there is no card that matches the related name), Address Book will include the related name on address labels. (Address information is required for this test since Address Book will not print a label for a card that does not have and address.) This was the source of my first problem as I had a card for a related name that had an old address on it, so Address Book chose not to print that related name on the labels as they did not live at the same address. I agree with this logic.
The real problem is revealed when you add a related name to a card in which the first name of the related name matches the first name of another card which is NOT the same person. So I have a card for "John Hart", and on that card I have two relate names, a Spouse of "Nancy Hart" and a Child of "Eric Hart". I also have a card for "Nancy Hart" with a Spouse of "John Hart" and a child of "Eric Hart" and the address matches that on the card of "John Hart". If I print a label for "John Hart", Address Book properly prints "John, Nancy and Eric Hart". Now if I add a card for "Eric Smith" and either have a different address or no address at all on that card, when I print a label for "John Hart" Address Book will print "John and Nancy Hart", effectively losing the child. I can only think that Apple made the search for related cards TOO FUZZY and forgot to include the last name in the search.
Apple... are you out there? Please help!!!
PS: My full database has many records that are incurring this problem, and it's annoying.
PowerMac G5 Dual 2.5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

After going through 3 2nd level support personnel, I finally reached one who cared enough to actually type in what I asked him to, and then to research the findings.
As I pointed out above, Address Book compares the related names with the other cards in the database. If there is no card for the specific related name, Address Book will stop at a record with a matching first name and then compare addresses. If the addresses do not match, it will not print the related name. The support rep stated that hopefully in future version this might be refined.
AS A WORKAROUND, he suggested I create cards for any of the related names on my cards. Once this is done, and the cards have matching addresses, all of the related names on the selected card for label or envelope printing are printed.

Problems printing to network printers from Mac OS X 10.6.2

I have three network printers connected to my Mac by IPAddress. When I send any print job except a PDF to any of the printers I get 20 copies of my document. This is true no matter what application I am trying to print from, including printing a test page from the printer settings. I have reset the printing system by [Control] clicking in the Printers list box. I have tried different drivers, including the Generic print driver. All printers HP printers. Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

Same issue on my WRT610N V2. I am using iMac Intel running 10.6.2. Error -36 prompted when copying files to the USB share disk from the Finder. Working fine when on PC running XP.
Another issue is DDNS can't report the router IP to DynDNS.com although it status that the update is successful and completed. After updated, the router's IP is still different to the IP shown on the DynDNS.com. I need to type the IP manually to the DynDNS.com
Hope the new firmware would fix these problems.
Thanks
