Samsung ML-1210 foomatic+gdi - no support for envelope printing?

I've installed the Open Source foomatic+gdi print drivers for my Samsung ML-1210 laser printer on my two Macs running Panther (10.3.9). Printing ordinary pages works fine, but the supplied PPD doesn't have any support for envelopes or the fact that the envelope feeder is centered on the print drum. Anyone know of a better PPD or other solution which correctly prints envelopes?

Welcome to the Apple Discussion forums.
I don't have this printer and am not familiar with the gdi drivers. Were there PPDs that came with the download or built from compiling the drivers? In looking at the foomatic generated PPD, I do see that there is a definition for envelopes. For example, I do see the imageable area for a #10 envelope:
*ImageableArea Env10/Envelope #10: "0 0 297 684"
Do you find lack of support for envelopes in all applications or just certain ones? Are you selecting the envelope in Page Setup from the File menu?
I really don't pretend to have any firm answers here; just a line of things to look at when troubleshooting.

  • Samsung ML-1210 Foomatic-gdi Print Area Error

    I upgraded to Snow Leopard then found I needed to reinstall the printer, I used the 3 installers here:
    http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/samsung-gdi
    The problem I'm having is that although all the page sizes look correct, what gets printed out is off-set from where it should be. Any help would be much appreciated.
    The cups web interface shown me this:

    When I print out the test page it come out like this:

    Is this a margin issue? Do I need to edit the PPD?
    Any info much appreciated.

    THE SOLUTION WAS TO:
    Install Foomatic-RIP
released January 30, 2008
    NOT:
    Foomatic-RIP 4.0.2.211 - released June 30, 2009
    This earlier version resolved the Margin printing problems
    The older version was installed "over" the new version without problems.
    Let me know if this works for you?

  • How do i get PCL5 support for P1606dn printer windows 7 64-bit

    how do i get PCL5 support for P1606dn printer windows 7 64-bit

    The full solution, off the product page, is the recommended solution for this product. It works for most windows applications and installed by default.
    The PCL 5 UPD driver only works for the 1606 models and is recommeneded for general office printing and 3rd party or custom software programs.
    The XPS print driver (off the prodcut page) is recommened for capturing and printing exactly what is on the screen.
    When you install the UPD driver, I would recommend that your install it in the traditional mode instead of the dynamic mode. Just my preference. This way you don't have to wait for it to search for the printer everytime you want to print.

  • Container Layout Web Item supported for PDF Printing (Stack 11)

    Dear all and Mr. Prakash Darji
    I had an information that PDF export would be supported for Container Layout Web Item with SPS11. We hrecently have installed SPS11 but the functionality is still not available.
    Does any one have more info on this ? Has SAP changed the plan ?
    The current document at the service marketplace about functional enhancements on the following link does not say any thing about this.

    I' an APEX newbie and believe I am having the same or a similar problem. I am (for now) developing a system using the hosted Apex development system online. I have created a Report Query which works fine with the default layout. I downloaded the XML (tried both sample data and schema) into Word 2007 with the BI Publisher Template Builder. I used the table wizard to create a simple layout containing all columns with no customization at all. Saved as an RTF, uploaded to Apex as a Report Layout, associated it with the Report Query, clicked Test Report -- and I got nothing.
    When the is a PDF, I get the same error you mention ( Adobe Reader could not open the <file name> because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded ). If I switch to an HTML file the out is just a blank screen.
    If I switch back to generic report layout, it works fine. This suggests there is something wrong with the template, though it looks fine in Word with the sample data.
    I've searched the forums and Google for the better part of a day. What am I missing?

  • No effective support for new printer from HP

    I just tried to get support for a Laserjet I bought about a year ago.
    The HP support operation just sends the user in circles.
    I visited the website. I watched a video. I read docs. At their
    suggestion, I filled out a dopey e-mail form.
    They sent return e-mail, saying I couldn't reply to their response.
    Then they sent another e-mail -- asking me for all the information I
    already had sent them.
    No phone number. No fault-specific website. No human's name.
    These people are worse than Wal-Mart. My printer has been down 
    24 hours, now looks like that outage will last a week. For a LaserJet!
    Epson, anyone?

    HP provides toll free support for 1 year and life of product e-mail and IM support. Did you ever register your printer?
    When you use the e-mail support there is an automated acknowledgement of your question that can't be responded to, that is SOP for many e-mail support operations. They may then ask for additional information to solve your problem. It may seem like info you previously gave them. If so, point that out in your response. You can also choose to enter a chat session with an HP rep for real time support. I've been using HP products exclusively for over 7 years, everytime I've needed to ask for support, my questions have been answered completely and quickly.
    Hope this helps,

  • IPhoto Books - Support for Chinese Print?

    Hi everyone,
    I was planning to put together a photobook for my grandparents with Chinese text. If it shows up on my computer, will out come out looking the same (or will it be all garbled up)? I did a "preview book" and the characters showed up. Safe to order?

    If you preview according to this article - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - it will print just like the preview - Apple guarantees it

  • ISO Inkjet for envelope printing

    For years I've been using a Canon i560 inkjet for heavy duty envelpe
    (invitation printing) and it worked great. The printhead on it is gone and
    it doesn't seem logical to spend close to $50 to replace it with so many
    cheap injets out there.
    Does anyone have a suggestion for a replacement? I do not need photo
    quality, and prefer one that uses generic cartridges. In the past I've found
    that the Canons handled the thicker invitation envelopes best.
    Of course I don't want to spend more than necessary, but more important than
    price is suitability to my needs.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    We use R280 with refill system from ufosytem.net and the ink from them as well for wedding invitations.
    So far, we save a lot of money.
    It comes with life time warranty and their ink is outstanding.
    I did contact them for Epson r3800 system which they mentioned it will be ready in few weeks.
    The R3800 is a perfect ink jet printer for my wedding business but the ink cost is crazy.

  • Can't get Samsung ML-1210 to work with iMac (OS X 10.4.5)

    Hey all!
    Can anyone please suggest me how to get my Samsung ML-1210 printer to work with OS X 10.4.5 on the Intel iMac? I downloaded the PPD file, installed it via the adde printer in System Preferences, I can print to it but nothing get printed...
    Thanks,
    Artemiy.

    i was able to get this to work on my imac intel with a samsung ml-1710.
    check out http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/samsung-gdi/
    download and install BOTH of those files.
    then you should be able to add your printer using the print center. the driver should be listed as Samsung ML-1210 Foomatic+GDI.
    hope this helps,

  • HT203088 Support for RAW for format in Samsung NX30

    Have just acquired Samsung NX30 Smart camera. Have Aperture 3.6. Upload RAW files?
    Have Yosemite 10.10.3

    Larry, thx for the clarity. I didn't realize asking about future directions was a no-no here.
    I since found an Apple document indicating support for the Leica D-LUX 3 and RAW format in an OS 10.4.10(?) release. I think I'll have to drag my Mac to the camera store, take a few pics with the D-LUX 3, attempt to sync and see if/how the RAW images come over, and then advise here on if it worked with OS 10.5.2 and iPhoto '08.

  • Email profile support for Samsung Android (KNOX) devices in integrated environment of SCCM 2012 R2 and Microsoft Intune

    Hi,
    I could see that lot of TechNet articles are being updated recently with the information on Samsung Knox.
    Tried to check the email profile configurations in the SCCM console, could not find Android platform in the supported platforms.
    I could see this option available when I login to the admin portal of Intune. Can any one confirm if the extension for enabling email profile support for Samsung Kiosk devices id released or planned to be released.
    Regards
    Leela

    Configuring email profiles on Andriod devices is not yet supported via ConfigMgr integrated with Intune, see also:

    It probably will be in the future, but there are no dates available yet.

    Do you have driver for  Samsung ML 1210 printer  for mavericks? Please help!

    I don't believe that Samsung ever made a driver for this model that worked in intel. Unfortunately, I think your printer is just too old. You can read here

  • TimeCapsule sharing a Samsung ML-1210

    Hello all,
    I'm having problems using my (old) Samsung ML-1210 printer via my (new) 1TB TimeCapsule and hope someone can help.
    The printer is recognised by the TC when first plugged in, it shows up on Bonjour and prints perfectly until I switch the printer off and back on again at which point it refuses to print again.
    It shows as being available to use but refuses to print until I turn the TC off and on again (a restart wont do it, it needs to be powered off). Even then I have to junk the local printer connections and recreate them, which is getting a bit tiresome.
    I'm getting the same results on both my Macbook and XP machine.
    I know the printer is OK as it works fine when connected locally (to both my Macbook and XP machines), and connected to a print server and used remotely (a W2003 server).
    I think I know that the TC is OK as it works fine as a print server for my HP 460c, but I cant be sure.
    I appreciate that this is an older model of printer, but I feel that it should work (and it does, once), and don’t want to spend on a new printer if I can avoid it.
    The firmware on the TC is 7.4.2 is that helps.
    Any help on this would be very, very much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    This may help with some general troubleshooting procedures. See Apple's guide below.

    Perhaps a user with the same model printer that you have will be able to furnish more specific information on your issue.
