Re: experiences with printing using Word/DDE sought

DDE is not that reliable. Try using OLE. We are using OLE to talk to
Lotus Word and its working out OK.

Subject: experiences with printing using Word/DDE sought
Hi Forte Users,
We are trying to merge and print forms using FORTE-DDE- Ms Word connectivity
and would like to know if any of you have had any experience in doing this. We
will be printing both from the client as well as from a batch operation.
What we essentially want to be doing is to be able to return a status from
Word to FORTE if any operation failed within MS Word, such as printer not
online, paper jam or out-of-paper, etc. Any other experiences or
problem/pitfalls would be appreciated as well.
Thanks for the Help,
Bala Cuddalore,

The CP1525 does allow you to print envelopes.There are two trays that can be used. I will describe only using the lower tray. Normally this tray is used for standard paper. To use it for letter envelopes, you need to pull out the tray and then make some changes. Take out all of the paper. There are blue-colored paper supporters. Two are used for the width of regular papers. Slide it toward the center so that it will handle the envelope with the top toward the left side. Put the envelope in with the printable side up and the top towards the left side. Slide the blue paper holders so they touch the top and bottom. Then push the envelope all the way toward the back and then move the single blue paper holder at the front so that it is against the envelope. You are ready to print as far as the printer.
I have to select properties for the printer. I indicate that I am printing an envelope. I also had to indicate landscape. I also had to move the print areas to fit where I want them to be. Then I added my address and the address to where they are going. I am not sure that I got everything but this should work well.
I did not do this, but you can use both trays with one that holds a number of pages and the other for a number of envelopes.

Can't print using Word for Mac 2004 to any printer

I bought a MacMini in January and a MacBook in June, Still using Word for Mac I bought years ago. When I try to print documents, only a line or two prints, sometimes not even that. I've tried printing from the Mini to an Epson Workforce 500 and from the MacBook to a Ricoh 6400. Very frustrating, and I have to get syllabi printed for classes.

I just googled word for mac 2004 and found the requirements "10.2.8 or higher". There were quite a few changes in Snow Leopard, so a lot of applications which still would work with Leopard no longer work with SL. I also checked this site for SL compatibility and it is not even listed:

Problem with printing from word 97

hi!!
I have HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-One installed. Unfortunately my fother still uses MS Word 97 because he knows it best. Any try to print a document from Word 97 results in crash of the programm without any error message. It just closes when he tries to choose HP C5280 in the print dialogue. Other office programms don't have this problem. I already updated drivers and software to the newest version. Is there an update for compatibility with MS Office 97 or my father have to learn to use another office programm??
Regards,
Georg Laptev

Try taking all of the spaces out of the printer name. There also seems to be a problem if you switch from normal print to draft in some models. I think the problem is with word 97. Still a great program.

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.

Eliminating borders with HP3800 using Word Files

I need to print off 500 fliers using my HP3800, double sided.
I received the files as jpeg but when I tried to print them XP took me to the photo print wizard where I found that you can only print a maximum of 15 prints each time. At that rate it will take me a great deal of time in blocks of 15.
I converted the files to Word, as that will enable me to set a long print run but I am stuck with white borders. I have reduced the borders to zero on Word, even though the jpegs have no borders, but it still prints an all round border of about a quarter of an inch.
By the way, I only have standard Microsoft Office with Word, Exel, etc.. No acces to Powerpoint.
Can anybody help?

Does anyone know what is the problem?
Thank you.

OK, a discussion on that problem has already been launched! Going to had a post to it!

Issues With Printer Using drv:///sample.drv/generic.ppd from Command Line

Hi All,
I was using generic postscript driver earlier with Mountain Lion. I Created a print queue using "lpadmin -p MYPrintQueue -m drv:///sample.drv/generic.ppd -v socket://<IP>:9100 -E"
This created a print queue with Generic Postscript Driver.
Now when i am trying same command with Mavericks, It's Creating a Local Raw Printer. Can anyone tell me where i am going wrong.
I need command line resolution only.
I know i can create print queue from cups web interface. There its working fine.
But i need to use command line only.
Thanks.

Hi,
Would you please try following commands?
Please don't add quotes on the inf file path: change the driver folder name NC Print Drivers as NCPrintDrivers.
rundll32 printui.dll PrintUIEntry /if /f C:\Temp\NCPrintDrivers\dellopd_A06\dellopd.inf /r "192.168.10.157"
Make sure to run the command as admin.
Let me know if it can work fine.

Over-ride concurrent prog noprint option with printer used in CheckPrinting

I would need to give a little bit of back ground on the Check printing process that we follow to explain my issue.
Check printing is done by 2 departments - AP and Treasury. AP selects invoices and runs the payments process while Treasury prints the check and confirms the payment.
Now the issue is when AP submits the payment process, the 'Format Payment Instructions' request gets submitted. Now the users in our AP department have their printer profile set to a default printer and copies set to 1. So for every concurrent request that they submit, the output is printed to this default printer. This has been working fine so far and also works for other requests submitted by the PPR. But the 'Format Payment Instructions' request has the check file in the output which gets printed in the printer from their profile option.
If the printer option is unchecked or default printer is set to noprint in the concurrent program definition of 'Format Payment Instructions' program, the check does not print at all. Even when the treasury submits the check for printing by selecting the printer. It does not work.
Is there anyway we could get the printing of checks by Treasury over ride the concurrent program definition or supress printing of checks by the 'Format Payment Instructions' program while being submitted by AP responsibility.
Any ideas/help on this would be great as we are going live with the upgrade now and would really need to address this issue.
Thanks!
Ramya

Hi c3 cyber club,
Unfortunately FormCentral and Echosign are two different services and forms created in Forms central can only be submitted via and to Forms Central.
We cannot have the form filled in using FormCentral and get it signed using Echosign.
However, you can use Echosign directly and you can get most of the functionality.

Assistance with Printing to Zebra QL220 using the LabVIEW report VI

I currently am trying to use the LabVIEW report VI to output a formatted set of strings to the above mentioned printer.
The UMPC hardware that runs the developed application is bare bones XP box and doesn't' have MS office installed
I use the LV new report set to a standard report and successfully set orientation to portrait or Landscape, set margins and set report fonts and headers.. However in sending the text strings to this label printer (labels are 45mm X 60mm) I find that that two issues arise.
1. Printing out double labels. The pagination fails and prints a blank label after each print when text is output. However if I disable all headers and body text (i.e blank label print). This pagination works fine.?
2. The formatting of the information on the page reliably, I currently use inserted blank spaces, is there a better way?
I thought, perhaps I should try using the ZLP programming language, but then not sure how to I send it to a USB printer? Has any one had any experience with this and these label printers ?
Thanks

I just installed the Lion operating system, basically to upgrade my iPhone. I didn't realize that my Microsoft Office 2004 application would no longer work. I have been using Word for my writing and I receive most of my emails with Word attachments. I have been using Apple products for years, always touting their reliability and customer service. I am not a techie, I just want to be able to do what I do on the computer and Apple always fulfilled my needs. Now I am told because of some operating system gobbledygook, I have to go out and purchase new software to use Word. This is despicable. I see no particular benefit to using Lion, but I do see a lot of detriments. Apple now seems to have turned into Microsoft, making software obsolete so they can make more money and to **** with the customer. You can be sure that my next computer will be a PC. I have completely lost confidence in Apple.

I seem to never tire of saying this. It was for Apple when they first announced 10.7 to disclose this. Yes, it was widely reported -- or rather, rumored -- but not by Apple. And many people who have gotten caught by this assumed that Apple itself would have told them beforehand about the loss of this very important feature which they had come to rely on. As far as I know, not even in fine print, does this appear anywhere on the Lion announcement or any of its links.
I am not saying Apple had to continue Rosetta in Lion, or forever, just that if it was going to be dropped, it should have been made known.
As relative "insiders" we should not forget that many people don't have the time, habit or interest to do this kind of research. I think it is a breach of trust that Apple has never directly made this announcement or given people the opportunity to decide beforehand if giving up their PPC apps for a new OS is a worthwhile tradeoff.

Can I use Word tables in InDesign? Any way to import tables made with Word?

Hi, I'm new here... Well, the title says it all: I need to use (basically unchanged) nearly 100 tables from a book made recently with Word... Can I import them?
It wouldn't be a problem making one new one (lines, etc...) with InDesign and then fill with text, but... why repeat 100 different tables (that's my case) already done I can use without changes... There must be a way to at least place a Word table into an ID document... Thanks for all kinds of comments!

OK, this looks like great news for me... So I understand ID places the Word table, and once inside ID, indeed ID sees it as a table you can vary... Is there any basic menu to vary one imported table, or is it a graphic (mouse) thing? I really appreciate your advice, Bob... I don't have much experience with tables in ID... For example, how can I make the whole table smaller? Only by varying the placing of the lines one by one, or can I make it smaller in the way we make a jpg smaller?

Envelope Data Merge using Word keeps complainging about my print driver

I'm merging an address list with an envelope to print in Word. I've done this before and not had a problem. However, since I'm using oddball size envelopes (not one of the presets like US Letter), I keep getting this error message when I send it to print: "Paper Size Error: The paper size selected in the printer driver software does not match the paper size IN the printer tray."
I'm using a HP 5940 Deskjet.
I've tried creating a custom size and saving it to the envelope template in Word. However, everytime I go back to Page Setup, it reverts to default size settings.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Since Word is not an Apple product, I suggest you head toward the Microsoft Office:Mac forums found at http://www.microsoft.com/mac/community/community.aspx?pid=newsgroups
That group is dedicated to user questions about MS Office:Mac applications. You'll find more answers in that forum rather than an Apple forum dealing the Mac/Windows compatibility.
