Reader 9.3.1 won't print issue

I've got a strange issue:
With Reader 9.3.1 updated directly from Adobe's website, our custom application that batch prints PDF files works correctly. However, when our Client Support team built the installer with Adobe's tools to update our users, the same custom application does not print the files. I'm not able to trap any errors when I issue the print call. It essentially has the registered application for that file type print the file. My app thinks that it prints but the printer never appears in the System Tray and never prints.
My guess is that there is some difference in the registry entries when installed from Adobe's site versus using the Adobe installer. I haven't been able to detect which entry might be causing the problem.
We're a large corporation so manually installing the 9.3.1 version at each PC is not a good option.
Any thoughts?

Thanks. I was logged in as Admin. What helped was the age old proven solution for any Windows problem, a reboot. For some reason, some process was probably holding on to the lock. Some uninstaller forgot to ask me to reboot, or perhaps I forgot to reboot. Oh well.

Adobe reader shows text but won't print all the text

I have a form used by many and it works with no problem. Today one came in you could see all the text, but when printed, only some of the text appeared.
I checked it on 3 machines, also one that has Acrobat 9 on it, same results.
On the print setup, under comments and forms, I have Documents and Markup set, but if I click on "form field only" I do get the missing text.
As said we have gotten many forms from other people, no problems, so it really not for lack of knowing how to print it correctly.
The only print preview I can see I have is when I go to print it, it appears on the right, and it is missing the text there.
I have removed all name and address from the form for privacy reason, I did add my name in a few blocks and then saved it but it won't print that also.
for some reason only the top row under CPR AED and SFA print, but as you can see, there are a bunch that don't, along with all the names I removed.
Thanks in advance.
John
Any ideas?
Tuesday--still working on this, I activited the voice part of my acrobat 9 and it reads all the text while in PDF form, just won't print it.

Restarted computer and seems to be working again.

Reader 10.1.2 won't print

Operating System XP SP3. Installed Reader 10.1.2 and now cannot print pdf's opened in IE8, nor pdf's opened directly in the reader. Printer (HP Laserjet 1020) "prints" a blank sheet, then displays error signal and has to be switched off and on again before it will print anything else, from any other source. Prints WORD 2003 documents perfectly - as always. When previous reader version was in use, there were no problems. It looks as though an urgent error fix is needed - am I right?
Brian.

Thanks Ankit_Jain. It works fine
Following latest security update from Adobe for Acrobat Reader, I was unable to print anything anywhere (Reader crashing). Even reinstalling from scratch didn't change anything.
After I followed the workaround listed (Reader 10.1.2 does not print), I shared all the printers from my XP Virtual Machine, thus allowing me to print again.

Reader 10.1.4 won't print

HP 1080 printer used to print pdf docs from a win 7 64bit machine.
Still prints other docs have tried installing different versions of reader.
Reader print interface acts like it processes the doc but no jobs show in
the printer spooler interface.
Suggestions appreciated.

Do you have Print to File checked?
Can you try Print as Image?
Anyway, you should update to 10.1.8, the latest 10.x version, or 11.0.5

Adobe Reader 11.0.7 won't print on my MAC OS X 10.9.3 (internal error)

When I initially open documents, I get this type of error messages. If I reload the page, then the PDF or document usually opens but will not allow me to print. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the application 30+ times at this point, have talked to Apple, QuickBooks, Intuit, and Adobe on the phone, though Adobe doesnt offer support for Reader or Acrobat. I am mostly trying to use my QuickBooks and Intuit payroll system to help start my new business. These require the use of adobe and I cannot print out required forms or run payroll! PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

HP OfficeJet 2544 Windows 8.1 Printing Issue

Hi there,
I am having a frustrating problem with my HP OfficeJet 2544. It happens all the time if I want to print anything more than one or two pages, and it only happens to me on my Desktop PC (i.e. my wife's laptop doesn't experience the issue).
What is happening is this: I send a document (multiple pages) to the printer, and then after the first page or so, I get a Windows 8 error message popping up saying the document couldn't print. The printer then spits out whichever page it is currently printing, usually half printed. If I want to print a multi page document, I have to print it one page at a time. I can't even send it to the printer in groups of 2 or 3 pages!
The printer is connected wirelessly, but I don't think it is a wireless issue. We have good strong signal in our house, and in any case, if it was a wireless connection issue my wife would have the same issue, which she does not.
I thought there was some bug in my Windows 8.1 installation, so I did a clean reinstall. This did not fix the issue. I have also tried reinstalling the drivers (did not work either) and clearing out the Print Spooler folder (again, no luck).
The only thing I can think of is that a while back the HP Update program said there was a Firmware update for the printer, which I installed. But if this was the problem, I imagine it would be affecting my wife's Laptop too?
I am getting fed up with the issue, and as I am doing a part-time degree I have to print multi-page documents from time to time! Does anyone have any ideas?

Hello @SamuelH82
I have some ideas that come to mind when I read through your post about the printing issues you have solely from your computer, as the other computer works find with the printer.
The printer hardware proves to test out alright, as the other computer does function fine with it.
I would suggest first running the Print and Scan Doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for any conflicts that could be causing the issue. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there was a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results. This alone could help fix the problem.
Also, try printing from other programs. Do they all appear to have the same problem?
Disable any firewalls and anti-virus' temporarily. Try printing again to see if that helped.
How far is the printer from your computer, and what are in between them that could cause interference? Having the computer and printer too close could cause disconnections.
Let me know the results thus far and your findings.
Enjoy the rest of your day

Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 Printing Issue,

Hello,
There is an issue I have been facing now a days. Our company application has been upgraded from oracle 6I to 10g. The output thereby comes as .pdf which is then printed on a pre-printed stationary.
The situation is there are two printers with two paper size settings and two different stationaries (A4 and letter) installed on each user.
The issue is when a user selects an A4 printer from the print dailog box of acrobat reader, the preview box won't get updated with the new page lengths, instead would print the output on the last page length settings. Suppose he selects A4 manually from the printer properties it would print fine. But again in the next print when he needs to print letter, acrobat would print with the A4 (last settings) and thus the print-out wont fit on the pre-printed stationary.
For each customer there is one A4 and one letter print and thereby a user can't affort each time to go in the printer properties and give the page length so acrobat reader would update its preview.
I would be really appreciated if someone would give me a permanant work around for this.
I apologize for such a long explanation, and also if this topic is already posted elsewhere.
Thanks.

Reader x printing issue with grayed out collate

Since we have deployed Reader X we have had issues with bulk printing of the same document. The option to collate is grayed out. If you want to print 50 copies of a pdf then you type the number in the field the collate is grayed out. There is a work around that you then click the up or down arrow and this makes collate available but you should not have to do this.
When is the new service pack/ fix available?

I have checked all of the typical page setting and I am still having the
same problem. I first started having the problem with my network printer when I upgraded to a Windows
7 (64 bit) but was using Reader 9. I upgraded the Reader hoping to eliminate the problem.
There are also times when the pdf won't print at all and I get an error message OFFENDING COMMAND: pscript_WinNT_compa.
I print a lot of pdfs so this is very frustrating.

CS3 Printing Issue--Won't Collate

OK, here's my issue--I'm unable to print collated copies from any CS3 application (InDesign, Acrobat). I've tried every combination of checking/unchecking the collate box in both the application's print dialog and the printer settings to no avail. This happens on multiple printers (so I know it isn't a printer issue) and I'm able to collate from non-CS3 applications (Word, for example), so I believe it to be CS3 specific.
I'm currently running CS3 5.0.3, but iI had the same problem under a clean install of 5.0.
Any ideas? Manually collating is killing me.

Unfortunately, not all USB printers are compatible with AirPort base stations. In addition, the AirPort's USB port does not support the "advanced" printer functions, like scanning, copying or faxing, of multi-function printers.
To see if your printer is compatible, take a look at thisiFelix Unofficial AirPort Printer Compatibility link. If your printer isn't listed, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work, but simply that it has not been verified. iFelix also provides the following workaround for printers not on the list that would certainly be worth a try.
Also you can try this Apple Tech Support article to see if it will help: Printer troubleshooting for AirPort Base Stations and Time Capsule
Finally, check out this IBM support article to see if your printer is listed as having a Postscript or PCL3 interface. If it does, then it will most likely work with the AirPort's USB port. Printers that use the "HP LIDIL" interface must be connected to a computer directly and will not work.

Acrobat Reader won't print

I installed OS 10.6 and now 10.6.1. Acrobat Reader 8 wouldn't print. Installed Acrobat Reader 9. Won't print. Canon MP530 printer gives this error message: "Unable to open raster stream. No such file or directory." No problem previously, with 10.5 and Acrobat Reader 8.

Solved my own problem; read the solution here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2172229&tstart=0
Hope it works for all of you with different printers. The issue seems to be in the printer drivers, though.

Reader 10.1.3 Kyocera Print Issue

Hello,
we are experiencing an Print-Issue in one of our field offices in Austria.
After we deployed Acrobat Reader 10.1.3 (from 9.5) the employees in this Office were no longer able to print on an Kyocera FS-C5015N(via Network), when they try to print any PDF they get the following error message : "Adobe reader has encountered a problem and needs to close"
Because this Kyocera is only in this office we cannot reproduce this Issue somewhere else.
We are running Win XP Sp3
There is no other PDF Software installed
What we already tried :
- Re-Install Acrobat Reader 10.1.3
- Re-Install Printer on the PCs
- Re-Install Printerdrivers
- Re-Configure Printer Settings
- Re-Configure Printer Network Settings
- Disable "Protected Mode on Startup"
- Disable "Show PDF in Browser"
- Enable the "Print as Picture" setting
- Different PDFs,
- When we Print to another local Printer there is no Problem(but thats a small&slow one and just our Emergency Solution)
- After we Re-Installed the Printer on the PCs the first printing attempt works without Problems
- Tried to print over the Network from my office (Vienna) on this printer -> same Problems
- Also some other "tricks" the local IT-Expert tried
So my question is, if anyone is experiencing the same Issue on this Kyocera or any other or can give me any Feedback according this Problem.
Thanks !

This is a public forum; please do not post your email address or other private information.
Regarding your issue; it appears you have already tried everything possible - I have no other ideas what to try with 10.1.3.
The only solution for now I can see is to revert back to 9.5.1; is this a problem for you? This should be only temporarily until a new version of 10.x or 11.x becomes available.

PDF's won't print in Internet Explorer after upgrading to Adobe Reader 11.0.03

PDF's won't print in Internet Explorer 9 after upgrading to Adobe Reader 11.0.03.
The print dialogue box won't open....nothing happens.
Desktop OS is Windows 7 SP1.

Two obvious troubleshooting techniques are to delete and re-install the printer driver (or updating printer driver) and fixing the installation of Acrobat. Have you given those a try?
