Send a file to the printer!

Hello,
is it possible to send a file, that is generated with the
printer-driver, to a network-printer? This should be done with LabVIEW

Alternatively if it's just a plain old text printer, you can use the serial
vi's
to send the text directly to a line printer using COM10. Note that you
will have to include a line in your labview.ini file (and in the ini file
with your built application) that allows you to access com10. The line is
something like:
"serialDevices=com1;com2;com3"
but a search on using the line printer on the NI website will reveal the
correct key and entry.

Trying to get Photoshop CS4 functional with Mavericks and an Epson 3880 printer. CS4 fails to send a file to the print queue. Have reinstalled the Epson 3880 driver for Mavericks. All looks good but no file is sent.

rying to get Photoshop CS4 functional with Mavericks and an Epson 3880 printer. CS4 fails to send a file to the print queue. Have reinstalled the Epson 3880 driver for Mavericks. All looks good but no file is sent.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

What EXACT version of Photoshop CS4 are you running? You should be on Photoshop CS4 v 11.0.2.
Also run Apple's software update to see whether it offers you the latest Epson update:
Printer Driver v9.33
Epson Stylus Pro 3880, Drivers & Downloads - Technical Support - Epson America, Inc.
MOST IMPORTANTLY: have Photoshop re-create its own Preferences:
To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
Note: If this process doesn't work for you while you're using a wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard, attach a wired keyboard and retry.
Important: If you re-create the preferences by manually deleting the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings file, make sure that you only delete that file. If you delete the entire settings folder, you also delete any unsaved actions or presets.
Reinstalling Photoshop does not remove the preferences file. Before reinstalling Photoshop, re-create your preferences.
NEW Video! Julieanne Kost created a video that takes you through two ways of resetting your Photoshop preferences. The manual preference file removal method is between 0:00 - 5:05. The keyboard shortcut method is between 5:05 - 8:18. The video is located here:

Important: Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If you require access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.

Running Yosemite, printing to xerox c75 digital press. InDesign will send a file to the printer, then crashes every time. I know there was a patch for this problem. Where do I find it?

Whenever I send a file to my Xerox C75 from my Mac (Yosemite), the file goes to the printer okay, then InDesign crashes.
I think there is a patch specifically for this issue. Where do I find it?

Yes, I have Fiery Hot Folders Console. That is certainly an alternative that should work as I can then avoid having to choose Fiery Features from the print dialog box in order to choose the paper tray and other features I need.
I am about to try a clean install of OS 10.9.3, and I am not the least bit happy about it. Adobe CC is my main set of go-to applications for my work, and those are the only applications that give me ANY problems with printing. I have forked out real money on different versions since I started using Adobe in the late 1990's, and my troubles seem to increase with every new release.

How to send a file top the default printer?

Hello,
I have generated, using Java code, a certain HTML file and wrote it to a certain location on my local machine. I would like now to automatically send this file for the default printer for printing, this way the user won't have to manually open the file and select
file->print from the browser window and then print it.
How can I acomplish this?

hi
good
how can you identify which file you r going to print and which file you r going to print.if you r going to print all the file from that particular location than you can do it through jsp, but i dont think it can be done automatically, the user has to select the particular location where you have stored the file in you hard disk and i will go for printing.
Thanks

Explorer Context Menu Convert Sends Files to the Printer

Right-clicking PSD files and choosing "convert to PDF" sent the files to the printer!!! I had hoped it would have brought up a dialog to convert the files to PDF...
(I was looking for "combine as PDF" -- I'm not sure what happened to it?)
I'm running Acrobat 11 on Windows 8.1

All that context menu stuff is handled by the registry. The explorer application simply gets its information from there. So Labview can write to a registry key to add itself to handle a file type. This is why you can have multiple applications handle the same type and show up in the context menu.
My point is that after I run LV 8.0, I will see both LV 8.2 and LV8.0 in the context menu (along with a couple of others). However, after I run LV 8.2, the LV8.0 option is removed. I'm guessing that this is related to a program's behavior in checking and setting the registry key to make sure that it is the default handler for the appropriate file types. NI would need to strengthen this code to be sensitive to previous versions of Labview.
A rough example of how to do this is at http://www.codeproject.com/w2k/extendingshell.asp

Send a txt file to the printer with java

Hello,
I want to sent a txt file to the printer in java. I' am using the USB port. I can try to setup a dos command (print c:\test.txt), but I don't know the exactly command.
There is also another solution in java I thing but I don't know the code!
Can somebody give me the exact command for DOS and/or the code I have to write in java?
THANX!!!!

in dos imo you are not able to use usb-port. if your printer would be on lpt you could use javacomm ( http://java.sun.com/products/javacomm/index.html ). there is also another thread talking about this (print text to lpt). for your usb-problem i don't have a solution. but you could use JNI (java native interface). write code in c, compile to dll and use it in java.

InDesign CC no longer packages fonts when I need to send a project to the printer

Hey Adobe team: Long-time user from when Photoshop was but a sprout. I recently upgraded from Creative Suite 6 to Creative Cloud and have run into a troubling problem. InDesign CC no longer packages fonts when I need to send a project to the printer. This meant that I had to completely redo a project on deadline for a problem that I’ve never had before. How is this possibly helping your users? And is there a solution in the works or do I need to cancel Creative Cloud and go back to CS6?

@OurPlace
First of all, you are not addressing any Adobe team. These forums are primarily supported by volunteers who are not Adobe employees and don't officially represent Adobe Technical Support.
That having been said ...
There was nothing done specifically with InDesign 9 or 10 (the CC and CC 2014) versions of InDesign to change or disable packaging of fonts when packaging a document. It should be absolutely no different from InDesign 8 (the CS6 version).
Troubleshooting hints:
(1)     Make sure you check the Copy Fonts (Except CJK and TypeKit) option in the package dialog.
(2)     Make sure that you are not using any CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) complex fonts that we specifically will never put into a package.
(3)     TypeKit fonts won't package.
(4)     Make sure that your file system permissions are such that InDesign can create all the necessary directories and subdirectories for the packaging operation.
(5)     If on MacOS, exit InDesign and try forcing a clearing of your system font cache and then reboot.
(6)     Exit InDesign and then find and delete all files on your system with filenames of the form AdobeFnt##.lst where ## is a two digit number; don't delete any other files that start with AdobeFnt. Then reboot and restart InDesign.
(7)     Reset InDesign's preferences that may have become corrupted. For Windows, start InDesign, and then press Shift+Ctrl+Alt. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files. For MacOS, while pressing Shift+Option+Command+Control, start InDesign. Click Yes when asked if you want to delete preference files.
One of these should either address or resolve your problem. Again, we at Adobe are not aware of any generic issue with packing fonts with InDesign.

How can I get Acrobat Reader X to send my pdf to the printer?

My pdf just looks at me while I push all of the buttons, file menus and keyboard shortcuts associated with printing and it does nothing. No dialog box, no nothing. All three of my printers work and i've tried them all. It just doesn't do anything. Any suggestions? I really need help here.

Adobe Reader X v10.1.4 no longer sends pdf file to attached printer

wants to save prn file. (Adobe print command shows correct, default printer name.) Printer works fine with other applications and used to print pdf files from Reader X even 2 weeks ago. Windows 7 x64 with MS Security Essentials - all systems up to date, no system changes (hard or soft) other than regular security and version updates.
Ran Adobe Repair and rebooted - print command showing attached printer still asks where to save the prn file instead of sending job to turned on printer which works fine just before and just after Adobe fails to use it. Will install older version of Reader, Adobe offers v9.5 if no one has a better solution since I am clueless.

Thank you so much for trying to help.
From your question I gather you have Reader X v 10.1.4 and have no trouble printing if you send to your printer.
Alas I'm pointing to my one real printer, the Brother I'm sending the pdf file to print. Worked fine for years until a few days ago. Now when I hit "Print" on the bottom right of the below panel I get the "Save As" screen asking where I wish to save the pdf file name I'm trying to print followed by .prn.
I have no problems in any other application printing. If installing an earlier version of Adobe Reader proves it's not v 10.1.4 specifically, I'll have to try and send the prn file to the printer, perhaps by using the old DOS type command, or see if I can print pdf files on another system.
You just made me think to try my backup PC with Adobe Reader X v10.1.0 - This works fine, both on its own printer and on the below named Brother attached to this system. So the problem is either v10.1.4 or some interaction of Adobe with very recently installed Microsoft security or other OS updates for 64bit Windows 7.
THANK YOU!

How do you send a File from the Clinent End To the Server?

Hi, I'm jut learing Java and am tring to send a file from the Cleints end to the Servers' end, I know how to do this in Php, but its some what different in Java, i know where is a File Class which i can post the information into but for some reason it woudn't work
<%@ page import=" javax.servlet.*, java.io.File" %>
<%
String fullname, emailadds, genre, filename;
fullname = request.getParameter("Name");
emailadds = request.getParameter("email");
genre = request.getParameter("genre");
filename = request.getParameter("clip");
File file = new File();
file.isFile();
if (file.isFile())
out.print("File is true");
else
out.print("file ain't there");
%>
just as a tester i tried this to see if file is being read, but it won't compile
I keep getting this error sign! Have i missed out a lib or somthing?
\upload_jsp.java:52: cannot find symbol
symbol : constructor File()
location: class java.io.File
File file = new File();

Sham, dont show your anger... and dont use provocative words...
Now, coming to your problems.
your jsp/html should contain some thing like
<form action="/uploadServlet" method="post">
<input type="file" name="file"/>
<input type ="submit" value="upload"/>
</form>and for servlet code, refer to
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=516176&messageID=2461686
or the easiest way would be to use 'commons-fileupload' api available on http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/

Safari 7.0.6, using Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10, aren't rendering pdf files in the Print Preview screen. Additionally, only a single, blank page prints for a multi-page pdf document. Any ideas?

Safari 7.0.6, using Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10, isn't rendering pdf files in the Print Preview screen. Additionally, only a single, blank page prints for a multi-page pdf document. Any ideas?

Figured it out. It had nothing to do with the software levels of Safari or Adobe Acrobat. Here's the fix:
Open Finder/Applications
Search "Internet Plug-Ins"
Move any Adobe plug-ins to the trash
Quit Safari
Launch Safari
Your pdf document should now render in Print Preview and print properly.

Every time I send a file to the TRASH, finder ask me to type my system password to complete the removal and wasn't like this before. How do I make to work like it was before? Thanks.

Sending a file to the Response failure

Hello everybody,
I have to send a file to the response for the browser to show a save/open file dialog box to the user, so he/she can download it and save in in his/her local file system. As expected the file is stored in a specific directory in the file system of the server.
What I did was to call this method within a commandLink component:
public String downloadDB(){
      FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
      HttpServletRequest request = ( HttpServletRequest )
                                 context.getExternalContext().getRequest( );
      HttpServletResponse response =
         ( HttpServletResponse ) context.getExternalContext().getResponse();
      String filePath = null;
      int read = 0;
      byte[] bytes = new byte[1024];
      filePath = getMyDBPath();
      response.setContentType("application/pdf");
      FileInputStream fis = null;
      OutputStream os = null;
      try {
         fis = new FileInputStream(new File(filePath));
         os = response.getOutputStream();
         while((read = fis.read(bytes)) != -1){
            os.write(bytes,0,read);
         os.flush();
         os.close();
      catch ( FileNotFoundException e1 ) {
         logger.error(e1);
         logger.info(e1.getMessage());
         request.setAttribute("errors", "File Not Found.");
      catch ( IOException ioe ) {
         logger.error(ioe);
         logger.info(ioe.getMessage());
         request.setAttribute("errors", "Error reading file.");
      return "";
   }After the user clicks on the commandLink, the page I'm working on, gets refreshed and at the top of it appears the text of the file I tried to download. This is not the expected behaviour, what should I do?
thanks a lot,
Johnny

I have found the solution, some googling and in another differente JSF forum.
what I missed was to include in the header this:
response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename="+filename);With that line it works perfect.
thanks.
