Screenshots to Pages doc causes crash when printing

I'm creating a document on Pages that has several screenshots on the document (creating a user manual). When I try to print the document, Pages crashes and it will not print. I removed the screenshots and was able to print. I deleted the original screenshots and created new ones with same issue. It places them in my print queue on hold, but when I tell it to resume it just deletes it out of the queue.
Outside of telling me not to use screenshots, does anyone know a fix for this?
I'm using Pages '09, version 4.1.

Are they straight (plain) screenshots?
In what file format?
Have you put any special effects on them, such as shadows, reflections, frames, transparency?
How many screen shots, and how many per page?
Have you tried printing just one page with one screen shot on its own? If so what happened?
As fruhulda says, what printer? …and do you have the necessary printer driver installed?

  • After updateting to 9.3 specific files causing crash when print starts

    After updating to 9.3 some files, not all, are no more possible to print without crashing acrobat.
    One example you can find here:
    http//europe/giga-byte.com/FileList/Manual/motherboard_manual_ga_ep45_ds3(r)_de.pdf
    Error:
    arobat.exe 9.3.0.148 with modul ssgs1.dll version 03.0.0 at address 0x00012ea9
    (ssgs1 belongs to Samsung printer ML1210)
    With 9.2, one week ago, there was no problem.
    If I start printing the copmplete file(a couple of pages) the printer starts printing and prints the whole file, but after a couple of seconds acrobat crashes.
    Theb print will NOT be stopped, the file will be printed cpompletly with ALL pages.
    If I try to print separate and single pages, the FIRST page can be printed without crash.
    Any other page will crash acrobat immediatly.
    I sepate this error page (take out 1 page) to get a separate pdf file will cause the same problem.
    If I copy this page to Word and then save from there as pdf - no error.
    Print "as picture" also no problem.
    Export to pdf/A (whatever this is) will cause the same problem
    Save as ...pdf - same problem
    Save as optimized -same problem
    Software: "Advanced pdf Repair" will not repair this
    This problem was not be be seen with elder version 9.2 last week
    This does not happen with  ALL pdf files
    System: XP SP3
    Action taken:
    Repair acrobat
    Reinstall printer driver

    I had to rebuild the thumbnails after the first try, and so on the second try, it cleared up the distortion.  However, the photos then had the rotation and out of sequence issue.  I certainly can try again.  You previously mentioned that it make a few times.
    As for the view, they are sorted by date.  It is really strange since it is only the photos at the very beginining.  These are photos where I had to manually enter the date when adding them to the libary.  I wonder if that has anything to do with.
    I really appreciate your time and advice.  This is pretty unusual for me.  I have been using macs since 2004 and never has a software upgrade thrown me for such a loop.
    Thanks again.

  • Acrobat Causes Crash when Print is Canceled

    When I hit "Cancel" after the "Save PDF File As" screen appears, my PC hangs.  The task manager shows 100% CPU usage.  The process that is using up the CPU resource is dumprep.exe.  I'm using Acrobat 9.3.2, XP SP3.

    I tried "everthing" to fix this, but in the end it was simple.
    Delete all printer drivers, except the one you actually need (one of them must have been causing the problem!), add back the others if required.

  • Long files hierarchy causes autocad to crash when printing to a pdf

    Long files hierarchy causes autocad to crash when printing to a pdf.

    Tylerdowner,
    Uninstalled and reinstalled Flash. No change. The only thing that seems to consistently resolve the problem is disabling the Flash plugin.
    I tried creating a new profile, but when I transfer the data suggested in this:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    I get an error window when opening firefox with the new profile ...something about security settings not working correctly...but I can print every time even though the Flash plugin appears to be installed and enabled. So I assume there is some kind of problem with my current profile. Any suggestions on how to find and correct it or a way to get most of my data into a new profile...that works...would be appreciated.

  • Mail and Preview crashes when printing.  I have 10.8.3. error message something about est-e-filing plug in.  Help anyone??

    I have the latest OS 10.8.3 and just recently Mail and Preview constantly crashes when printing.
    It seems that it is missing a plug in or something.  Error messge is Mail quit unexpectedly when using the est-e-Filing-pdes plugin.

    Actually I have experience more crashing (with Numbers) since last update.
    Can anyone help?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • HAVING PROBLEMS WITH OS 10.6.8 PRINTING WITH XEROX PHASER.  MacPro crashes when printer warms up. Does anyone have a solution? 6360 DN

    I've been using Macs since 1984.  Have been using Xerox Phaser printers for ten years.  But with the last update to OS 10.6.8 last summer, I've had problems with crashing when printing.  My MacPro crashes when printing via ethernet prot with Xerox Phaser 6360DN or when the printer warms up.  Worked fine with OS 10.6.7.  Internet postings suggest this is a common problem for all Mac users with Xerox Phaser printers.  Apple put out an update to 10.6.8 to address the problem.  I downloaded it but it did not solve the problem.  Have tried all the Xerox drivers along with Apple drivers.  Can't solve the problem.  Xerox says it's an Apple problem.  Does anyone KNOW how to solve the problem?

  • Internet Explorer 8 crashes when printing webpage to PDF

    Is anyone else experience their browser crashing when printing webpage to PDF?  This only happens in IE8.  This feature works fine in firefox.
    Thanks!

    Thanks - but Firefox is not supported by my employer and we are restricted to use of Internet Explorer.  I appreciate you taking the time to try and help though   Anyone else have any thoughts?  This is so frustrating not to be able to open pdfs online.

  • Indesign CC 2014 crashes when printing to Fiery server

    This is to remind Adobe that issues printing to Fiery print servers from Indesign CC 2014 (10.0 or 10.1) on Mac have not been resolved.
    A patch has been provided here: InDesign & Illustrator | Crash while printing to Fiery RIP | MacOS   --- however, the problem persists after patching. I should note that the fix at that link only pertains to Indesign 10.0. If you download Indesign 2014 from Creative Cloud you would, at this time, receive 10.1. That script will break 10.1 completely. There is no fix for 10.1.
    The original thread for this discussion is here: Indesign CC 2014 crashes when printing   It's marked 'Answered' and methinks the ongoing conversation there has been over-looked.
    I am bumping this topic to keep the conversation fresh. If anyone else has found solutions to printing to Fiery from Indesign 10.x either by updating Fiery directly or with additional scripts or workarounds, please share them here.
    I could publish one of my 10.1 crash logs if I could be advised which pieces are most important, or how to post the unabridged without spamming the forum.
    That's the constructive bit. Here's my rant...
    After speaking to Adobe on the phone, they tell me this isn't resolved yet because it affects only a small subset of people. I called some peers at other agencies across my region and learned they all use Indesign with Fiery servers. We are not an isolated few! (those fortunate individuals I spoke to are still using CS6 -- and I received some jovial ribbing for having my on-going CC subscription.) I have a lot of printing to do on the Fiery now that these projects are finishing, but i'm held up while down-saving these projects to be used in CC (9.x). Its frustrating, its time-consuming, and its simply unacceptable to CC subscribers as we move in to 2015. I urge Adobe to work with EFI to solve this problem once and for all.

  • Bad crash when printing to pdf in Morningstar software - is it a 64 bit problem?

    Had bad crash when printing to pdf in Morningstar Principia Pro software - is it a 64 bit compatability problem? All other software I have can print
    to Acrobat pdf, but in Morningstar the Window 7 PC freezes and not even Task manager can
    unfreeze the computer. Acrobat worked fine in my old XP 32 bit PC when printing from Morningstar. Recently a webinar using
    an Adobe webinar software I was told I must only use a 32 bit browser, so I suspect Acrobat is incompaitble with my new 64 bit PC. Work around solution is to print to Microsoft XPS and then convert to Acrobat but I want to use Acrobat only! Is there a patch for people using 64 bit PCs?
    Can someone at Adobe respond to me, please? I have used Acrobat for over 10 years and am very loyal.

    Michael: I have tested other programs ability to print to Acrobat and also tested ability for other programs to
    export to Excel or Word. The only crash is when printing an Acrobat pdf from Morningstar Principia Pro I get a bad crash. The work around is to print to XPS and then convert the XPS file to Acrobat pdf. To get out of the crash which can't be fixed by Windows Task Manager shut down, is to open the printer file and tell the printer to delete the pending print job.
    I'm using latest Version 9.3.4 Standard Acrobat; Win 7 Pro 64 bit, 10 g of RAM, HPE 390t standalone PC, no networking.

    How can I resolve a recent printing problem I'm experiencing regarding downloads from the web where pages beyond the 1st page appear 50% reduced when printed or lines of type at bottoms of pages are missing?

    David,
    Thanks for the reply. I wish I could tell you that your suggestions solved my problem - they didn't.
    I've deleted the affected printer, then added the printer again; I've reset the printing system, then added the printer again; I've downloaded printer drivers, deleted the affected printer, then added the printer again.
    I plan to contact hp later this week for further assistance as you suggest.
    My printer is a hp OfficeJetPro L7590.
    I've enclosed screen shots illustrating the situation.
    Regards,
    R

  • Error message or program crashing when printing on Epson printer

    In July 2008, I upgraded my computer from a MacBook to a MacBook Pro (and bought a Time Machine so that all my files are backed up regularly!) I then bought my wife a MacBook Pro in November 2008. We both used to have iBook G4s.
    We have an Epson EPL-6200 Laser Printer that we print from using our Airport Express. It used to work fine printing documents from any program and printing wirelessly from the iBook G4 computers we had when we bought the printer around three years ago.
    But since I have switched to a MacBook and now a MacBook Pro, I have all kinds of problems printing on the Epson EPL-6200 printer. At first, my MacBook did not print remotely at all. I had long conversations with both Apple and Epson, knowing there was a problem with the Epson driver. To top it off, the problems seemed worst with Microsoft Office, so both of them also said it was Microsoft's fault!
    Now that Epson has upgraded its drivers and I have dowloaded the latest one, and switched to a MacBook Pro, I can print some files easily -- Word documents now print immediately, although I get an error message saying that the printer is not connected. But trying to print from other programs such as Firefox either takes a very long time (around 5-8 minutes for one page) or causes the program to crash.
    Any ideas? The strange thing is that my wife's computer and mine are exactly the same (running Mac OS X version 10.5.6) but behave slightly differently when printing. I can print from Firefox, albeit after a long time per page, whereas if she tries to print from her computer in that program it instantly crashes.
    I guess we still have driver issues with the Epson EPL-6200.
    But I have looked on the Apple support forums and there seem to be a lot of printer-related issues like this. Do you guys have any suggestions? Or is there a printer that will work well with our MacBook Pros, an Airport Express and/or Time Machine (we have both) and when printing remotely?
    All the best,
    Alex

    hey,
    well, i use the below machines with the current mac os (10.5.6).
    i (kind of often) had issues with the network printer epson epl-6200.
    of which every issue could be resolved by myself, more or less quickly.
    i.e. until the last update (10.5.6).
    none of my machines is able to get anything through the network to the printer.
    at least they don't get the printer to print a page.
    today i spent (almost) the whole day, trying out things to get it fixed this time.
    none of it worked.
    just to let you know:
    i can access the printer through its http-interface.
    i can ping it.
    it gets recognized by the printer/fax-dialog in the system-preferences.
    here's what i tried so far:
    i tried to install the osx driver for the epl-6200 with every single protocol that's available in osx (i.e.: Appletalk, IPP, Bonjour, EPSON (IP), etc.)
    i of course tried to update the driver with the latest software available on the epson-website. and did the thing with the different protocols again.
    i tried the "generic" postscript driver of osx, too.
    then it was getting interesting:
    i tried to get "cups" for the epl-6200. i don't want to get into details here, but to drop some names:
    foomatic-rip (combined with ghostscript)
    http://linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/foomatic
    gutenprint (doesn't have an epl-6200 driver included)
    pxlmono (doesn't have an epl-6200 driver included)
    to sum that up:
    there are two drivers on the "openprinting"-site (foomatic). but one is (of course) the official epson driver.
    but:
    there is a "third-party" driver downloadable on that website.
    http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-EPL-6200
    well, i downloaded it, installed the required additional software (foomatic + ghostscript), all very fine. i could choose it in the osx printer setup menu.
    but:
    my printer still won't print a single page.
    the error messages i got:
    other than the above post none of my programs ever crashed, or was "dead slow".
    but:
    the printing job got constantly stopped, i could restart it, but it was then stopped again. without any error message.
    there was the same thing with the halt of the printer (also monitored in the printing cue window). i could restart it, but it would stop again. without any error message.
    but i also got two decent error messages: :))
    the first involved the pdftoescpage.app, either it was failing (shown in the printer cue window), or it was crashing (i got the error message in a separate window popping up). according to folks on the net this malfunction involved user permissions, so i to set up the "right" permissions (giving everybody the right to do anything (rwx) - i know i shouldn't have :)) ). but it didn't help. still crashing or failing.
    the second decent error message, finally:
    "double free" - what that meant, i cannot tell.
    conclusion:
    i don't know. :))
    required action:
    i will await the next osx update, and hope it'll be fixed then. :))
    good night, y'all
    p.s.: ahh, if anybody knows anything i didn't and should try. please drop a line. thx
