Reader XI cannot print simplex

Adobe Reader XI 11.0.07, Windows 8.1 32bit, HP M1536dnf MFP.
I cannot disable duplex-printing of pdf documents.
I can uncheck the option in the printing dialog, I can also disable duplex in the printer properties, but Reader prints everything in duplex mode.
Other programs do not have this problem, e.g. Office 2010.
Any idea?
Thank you very much in advance & best regards.

Try running the Acrobat/Reader cleaner tool: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Then re-install.

Installed Adobe Reader X Cannot print. All Fixes futile!

Have OS Windows XP Installed Adobe Reader X and cannot print. Documents open properly and can be manipulated according to their limitations except I cannot print. Printer is HP Officejet 4500 Wireless. Have converted back to hard connection for this process. Connection not an issue. Everything else except the pdfs will print normally. Printing a pdf elicits no response from the printer. Does not show in queue. Hard attached another older HP printer. It does respond by pulling blank paper thru machine. Have full warranty on HP printer and have been thru detailed process with them. Does not appear to be a printer issue. Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Tried all the same fixes. Still does not work. Connected to old printer.
Printer responded, but did not print.

I updated to the latest pdf reader, and all print files have a .prn suffix

After I updated to the latest Adobe PDF Reader, I cannot print PDF files.
The files have a .prn suffix, which is an old format for Lotus 1-2-3.

I found a free utility called PrintFile that can print .prn files to USB-connected printers.
When the utility is installed it associates .prn and other similar files with PrintFile.
Now when I print a pdf file, I click on the .prn file that is created, and the file is printed O.K.
It appears that Adobe deleted the Print to File option from the print screen in Reader 10.1.4.

I cannot print a PDF from Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader with Mavericks!

I cannot print a PDF from Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader. I tried on both MacBook Pros we have here, both now with Mavericks. Error message says "Opening printer connection failed. Unable to open printer connection . . . " This is after it says sending data, printing, shows the percentages etc., but then at the end I get the error message above. I can print a PDF (same one) from Preview, but not from Acrobat! What's going on? Never had this issue before Mavericks . . . Please help.

I have a Windows 8.1 machine. I used a projecteor a while back in a Power Point presentation. Now my menus for Adobe are very small and hard to read. The print command is so compressed that I cannot read or use it. How do I fix this problem?

There is no application called "Adobe" - you are either working with Adobe Acrobat or the free Adobe Reader. Open up the preferences for the application (Edit>Preferences), then go to the "General" category and modify the settings for "Scale for screen resolution". You will have to restart the application after you do that. Does that fix your problems?

Adobe Reader v 11.0.10 cannot print PDF files

Hello,
My Adobe Reader v11.0.10 running on Windows 8 Pro with Media Center cannot print anymore.
I used to be able to print from Adobe Reader before.
I still can print to all printers using other applications – Word, Excel, Notepad.
I can print a test page on any of my printers without any problems.
I can print PDF files using other PDF viewers (like Foxit reader), but I can’t print from Adobe Reader.
There is no error message on the screen and there is no any error message in the log files.
If I uninstall Adobe Reader and re-install it, then the first time I log on I’ll be able to print once.
But any consecutive attempt to print will fail!
Any ideas what could be the problem?
Thank you!

Hello,
I go to File --> Print menu.
As I always do.
It used to work before.
I haven't tried "Print as image" option, but I'll try it and post the result!
I will try also unchecking 'Enable Protected Mode at Startup' option under Edit> Preferences> Security (Enhanced)
As I mentioned in my previous post I tried re-installing Adobe Reader - but no luck :
"If I uninstall Adobe Reader and re-install it, then the first time I log on I’ll be able to print once."
I think that the issue is not the particular file - it has something to do with Adobe Reader itself. Maybe it is corrupted????
I'll try again tomorrow and I'll post the result!
Thank you for your reply!

Cannot print to HP LaserJet 1020 after installing Reader XI 11.0.03

After installing the Acrobat Reader 11.0.3 update, I cannot print to my old, reliable HP LaserJet 1020 from Acrobat Reader and many other applications at all. Am using Win 7 64-bit. Also have Acrobat 7 Standard and PDF-Xchange 4.0, both of which have become semi-broken after installing the Acrobat Reader 11.0.3 update as well.

One of the things I have experienced in the past with printing PDFs is that it would hang in the print queue. There is a manual method of deleting the print documents in the print queue. But the issue is printing PDF documents that are scanned in and has maybe highlighted text or handwritten notes on the PDF. The printer driver can render it correctly if printing the PDF as a text document. What you have to do is change it so that it prints as a PDF image instead.
To print as an image, open the PDF then click File then click Print. Click the Advanced button on the following window that pops up and select the check box "Print as image".
Now to clear your print queue will be key prior to doing this if the print job is hung in the print queue.
Here is a Microsoft KB Article that explains how to do this. I think it has an available Microsoft Fixit tool you can use as well.

I followed the FAQ troubleshooting and that didn't help

Here is what worked for me:
My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

Cannot save, cannot print PDF form in Adobe Reader 9

I downloaded a PDF form for an application from the internet. It opened in Adobe Reader 9, where I was able to fill out information in the PDF. Some areas required a scroll bar for long lists of information. Now, I cannot save the PDF or else all of my information disappears!! I cannot print the PDF, because all of the information is not immediately visible, due to scroll bars. It only prints what is immediately visible.
I need help - I cannot save, print, or exit out of this form that I have filled out multiple times at this point from attempts to Save.

What means "cannot"; what happens when you try?

I cannot print in Adobe Reader X

I am trying to print an important tax document. The document is 50 pages and all scanned documents. When trying to print I receive error " The document could not be printed." I press OK then receive an additional error " There were no pages selected to print". Please advise.

I am having the same issue with XI 11.0.1
I updated on my laptop (thankfully have not on my desktop and will not be till this is resolved). My printer, drivers, and reader are all up to date. Followed the joke of instructions here http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/troubleshoot-pdf-printing-acrobat-reader.html and still no luck... Seeing as my laptop is my primary computer for school work and the majority of our class deals with PDF files. This needs to be fixed.
I run Windows 7
Acrobat reader XI 11.0.1
Printer Driver last update 6/2012
Printer: Brother HL-2270DDW
I cannot print ANY reader files. When I click print it attempts to spool then says "document could not be printed" then another message says "no page has been selected"
I am able to print all other types of files to this printer (word, web, email, pictures, etc)
EDIT: Thanks html5plzkillflash, reverting back to Reader X 10.1.4 fixed the printing issue!

Cannot print PDFs in Adobe Reader 11

When I try to print a PDF using Adobe Reader 11, it says that it cannot print because no pages have been selected for print. Here's some more information:
What I have done:
printed a PDF through a web browser. This worked fine.
saved that same PDF, reopened it in Adobe Reader, tried to print. It did not work.
opened PDFs from emails and tried to print. That did not work.
tried "Print As Image" as some forums have suggested, but I cannot because that option is greyed out.
Computer history:
my computer had a virus 2 weeks ago. Before the virus, everything printed fine. I'm guessing that perhaps I had a different version of Adobe Reader on my computer before then, and that the newly installed one (post-virus) is the problem. But, I'm not sure.
Thanks for your help. This is so strange! If it makes a difference, I use a Brother HL-2270DW wireless printer.

Hi Vikrantt,
The printer is a Brother HL-2270DW. It says this at the end when I look at the details on the network device page: [008092b6bcfa]. I'm not sure what type the driver is, but I do see that the driver version is 1.9.0. How can I figure out the type?
Thanks,
Kate

Cannot print PDF with Adobe Reader 9.4.6 ?

I cannot print PDF files using Adobe Reader 9.4.6. OS is VISTA. Everytime I try to print a PDF file, I receive the following message - " Before you can perform print or related tasks such as page settings or printing you need to install a printer" I have a printer installed and can print word, excel files, etc. Cannot print any PDF files. Help!

Had you managed to print the same files, or are you talking about files you hadn't attempted to print? Are these PDF files forms that you are trying to fill and print in Reader?
