PS6 - can't open print dialog

Hello, first thing: sorry for my poor english.
I'm running PS6 (CS6 Design Standard) on Mac OS Mavericks, all up to date.
And there is some problem with printing: cmd+P results with "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents." Tried reset PS settings - it helps only for newly opened document once, saved docs won't print. Tried to change default printer, installed new drivers (for Epson P50 - USB, Xerox DC 252 - LAN, Agfa Apogee - virtual).
Printing works fine from Adobe Acrobat Pro and other programs.
It happened to me also few weeks ago but uninstall and reinstall of CS6 helped, now it's suddenly not working again.
Any clue? Some Patch maybe?
Thank in advance
K.
[edit]
Once again: uninstalled (whole CS6- uninstalling only PS itsn't working), reinstalled, maintenance (permissions) with Onyx - it's working. But for how long?

I'm having the same problem all of a sudden with PS CS5. Same messages. Nothing seems to fix it.

How to open print dialog from web dynpro abap application

Hi experts,
I have a web dynpro application with several views and onone of the view there is a button that should open print dialog with printers list and all other options (standard print dialog we see in windows). I did reserach on SDN and came to now that this is a limitation of web dynpro abap. I did find some code also but unfortunately our current version of ABAP(7.0) do not support the code I found. I am not able to find any proper solution for this. Could someone please let me know how I can open a print dialog by clicking on a button in web dynpro abap? Any sample code or any information would be greatky appreciated.
Thanks.

KDEmod very long time to open print dialog

Then I want to print something from a KDE application it takes a few minutes for the print dialog to open while I can't use the application I want to from because the window is blocked.

Error when opening print dialog

I am on a MAC using photoshop CS5 version 12.0.6. I specified an unsupported custom size for a printer and it now causes an error when I attempt to open the print dialog by choosing "Print" from the file menu. If I select "Print One Copy", the document attempts to print but generates error. Since I can't get to the print dialog, I can't change the print setting. Is there a file or way to change the print setting by some other means?

There's no such thing. The latest version of Photoshop for the Mac is 12.0.2.
What routine trouble-shooting steps have you taken so far?

Opening print dialog box with "Selection" printing enabled

Hi all,
I have a JTable in which I wan to print only selected rows. When I open the Print dialog box using printDialog() method of PrinterJob, the dialog opens with "Selection" option disabled.
How can I enable this option ?
How can I print my selection using the standard Print Dialog ?

This I know.
Let me refrase my question:
I have a table with selected cells (Rows Cols
whatever ...) I wish to open the print dialog box
with Selection radio button enabled, such that when I
will check it and click print, the selected table
cell get printed.This I had understood.
Let me refrase my reply:
If you simply print a new table containing the selected data
then you don't need to have the Selection radio button enabled
in the print dialog box.

Open Printer dialog window

Can I open the Windows Printer dialog window in Forms during runtime and then send the printer name that the user selected to Oracle Reports?

Here is the code for showing the WINDOWS PRINTER DIALOG BOX. REMEMBER YOU HAVE TO ATTACH D2KWUTIL.PLL file for this to work.
declare
v_printer_name varchar2(1000) := null;
v_port varchar2(1000);
v_exception boolean;
begin
win_api_dialog.select_printer(v_printer_name,v_port,v_exception);

exception
when others
then

end;

Slow opening print dialog screen in Windows 8.1

I have Adobe Reader 11.0.5 and am using Windows 8.1. When I click on the print icon, it takes 20 to 30 seconds for the print dialog screen to open. This is maddening. Does anyone know why and how to speed it up?

Hello eycon
Try out the article below to troubleshoot your issue with iTunes freezing on you. Also check to make sure that when you removed iTunes, did you uninstall in the order of the second article as it does make a difference when troubleshooting the issue.

Can't open print & fax preferences, can't print

I know I've read about this problem before, but I can't seem to find the thread. I'm a total novice when it comes to terminal, but I don't even know where to start. Whenever I try to print, or even open print & fax, I just get the spinning wheel. I'm using Leopard on a 17" MBP, and I'm set up on a network with several printers (I can't even open the individual printers...everything related to printers or printing just freezes!!)
Any help is much appreciated!

I think I have bigger problems here...
I think you may be right.
Have you installed anything recently?
Open up Console.app and see if there are any messages that repeat regarding the crashes.
How much free space do you have on the disk?
You can get into the CUPS web config through http://localhost:631
I couldn't find anything like "Reset Printing System," but you can view the error logs (which you can do from Console.app), and edit the Configuration file. There is a button to use the Default configuration, but I don't know what that will accomplish. Might be the last ditch effort before reinstall.
EDIT: From About the Reset Printing System feature:
What does Reset Printing System do?
Deletes all printer queues and jobs.
Resets all printer settings to their default by deleting configuration files.
Performs a permissions check on the /tmp directory.
1) Can do that from CUPS interface
2) Noted above
3) They should be rwxr-xr-x root:admin

Open Print Dialog using JavaScript

Hi folks, I'm trying to open dynamically the print dialog window for printing the PDF (Ctrl + P) in WebDynpro ABAP using JavaScript.
The JavaScript seems to be executed only for Interactive Forms, however I don't need to use interactive but only Print-Based Forms.
This line of code works if I assign it to an event like click for a button, I tried to call it in the doc:ready event but it does not work
xfa.host.print(1, "0", "0", 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
Please I need some help and I hope it's possible!
Alex

Thanks, we are getting close!
This line of code works, but it does not prompt me with the print dialog box (because of the first parameter is 0)
xfa.host.print(0,"0","0", 0, 1, 0, 0, 1);
I got this message box "This document is trying to print. Do you want to allow this?" Yes/No....
Ok, that works but I would like to have the standard print dialog window instead, where you could select your printers.
This line of code prompt me to save the XDP, this is not what I want
xfa.host.exportData("",1);
In which event should I place the script??
Also, script only seems to be executed for interactive forms, I don't want to generate interactive forms, they are more heavy to render, this is only for print based forms!
thanks

CR 2008 SP2 - Slow to open Print Dialog or Page Setup Dialog (And SP3+)

When I am designing my report in CR 2008 SP2 and select either Page Setup or Print from the File menu, Crystal Reports stops responding for about 5 minutes and then the dialog box will open. I created a blank report and did not add anything to it and this continues to happen. The program operates at normal speed otherwise. It is quick to startup and load reports. Any ideas on why this is so slow?
Update: I have also tried checking the box in page setup that says No Printer but the problem persists.
Update 2: I have updated from SP2 -> SP3 -> FP 3.1 -> FP 3.2 -> FP 3.3, and after each upgrade I tried both Print and Page Setup and it continued to exhibit the same slowness as in SP2.
Thanks,
Paul

Hi Ashwini,
I just completed updating my OS and I am still experiencing the behavior. I have applied every update available through Windows Update. I just reformatted my computer two days ago so this is a pretty fresh install.
This problem existed before my reformat as well however. A few months ago, Crystal did not have this slow issue when opening either Print or Page Setup dialogs. About a month ago these two dialog boxes just became very slow. I hoped reformatting would get rid of this issue but it persists. I also experience this slowness on a different computer that I am using.
One idea I just tried is to shutdown the Print Spooler service in Windows. The print dialog won't open at all but it does quickly tell me Warning: No Printer is installed on this system. The Page Setup dialog on the other hand opens immediately, however, the Printer Options group box is totally greyed out. This "fix" is of course no good to me since I cannot print, but perhaps it narrows down the issue to something regarding printing and/or printers?

Can't open printer connection

I now have the following setup:
iMac G5 (LAN port) <--> Belkin 5-Port Network Switch via Ethernet
HP 7210 (LAN port) <--> Belkin 5-Port Network Switch via Ethernet
Airport Extreme Base Station (LAN port) <--> Belkin 5-Port Network Switch via Ethernet
Cable modem <--> Airport Extreme Base Station (WAN port)
The network seems to be working fine as far as internet access goes. On the Airport Admin Utility, I have the Distribute IP addresses box checked.
When I try to print, the HP Officejet 7200 series dialog box opens and says "Opening printer connection" but nothing ever happens.
What do I do?

HI Sean:
I had the same problem too!!! I was getting frustrated because I was trying to
get my hp photosmart 7260 and my hp deskjet 3740 to print wirelessly. The solution I found by accident. What happened is that my network went down so I decided to unplug my cable modem connection from the Lan Connection on the Airport Extreme Router and plug it in the Wan connection and presto my printers were printing wirelessly. When that happened I literaly just wanted to cry in happiness.
Hope this works for you. Please let me know what happens. My email is [email protected] if you want to contact me.

Can't open printer web access page.

After installing Firefox v.17, I can't open my printer's web access page.
It is a network printer and IP address is 192.168.0.105.
Typing that IP in the browser should open the web interface, but since installing v.17 all I get is error.
Previous versions of Firefox had absolutely no problem opening that page.

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''

ID CS5 (7.0.4) painfully slow opening print dialog box

I've been having this issue for quite some time and finally getting around to finding out what's going on.
I counted 38 seconds between the time I hit Control-P, and the time the print dialog box opens up. ID looks like it has hung up until it finally opens the print dialog box.
Edit: meant to say that my documents are all very simple text-based pages with a simple letterhead graphic file embedded, 5-6 pages usually.
Any suggestions on how to fix this, such a lot of wasted time waiting.
Thanks!
System: Windows 7, 8 GB Ram
ID CS5 7.0.4

That would be MY first step. It takes no real time and will eliminate it as a possibility. Next thing I would do is trash prefs: see Replace Your Preferences
If neither of those works, I'm not sure what I would do next... Perhaps have a look at what else is running that could be slowing things down.

Opening print dialog automatically

I'd like to put a pdf on my website, and when the user clicks a link,
have Acrobat Reader open the pdf and show the print dialog. (It would
even be better if it would jump to a specific page).
Is this possible?
Something like this:
http://mysite.com/mypdf.pdf?openprintdialog=yes

This I know.
Let me refrase my question:
I have a table with selected cells (Rows Cols
whatever ...) I wish to open the print dialog box
with Selection radio button enabled, such that when I
will check it and click print, the selected table
cell get printed.This I had understood.
Let me refrase my reply:
If you simply print a new table containing the selected data
then you don't need to have the Selection radio button enabled
in the print dialog box.

How can I get print dialog box to show accurately?

My print dialog box shows the image too large. If I go to print it prints correctly. I have tried updating drivers and reinstalling Illustrator. It has been happening since new update to CC.

When viewing the print settings, in the Summary List, it shows the Paper width as 9 inches rather than 8.5.
The Navigator window shows (in my test file) 4 plus signs across the top of an 8.5 by 11 inch page.
The Print Preview in the Print Dialog shows only 3. My printer is set to standard 8.5 by 11 page size.
Everything prints perfectly in CS6 when I bring the file in.
