YOu need to modify the smartform not the driver program to print all lines the way you want by changing font size, reducing line length...etc..etc..
It's printing fine on the default PC printer, because, it uses windows printer driver to render the output, where as SAP network printer uses SAP printer driver to generate the printer commands, there's always difference in the output between the two drivers.

Any fix for the PC based network printer communication issue with Mavericks?

Any fix for the PC based network printer communication issue with Mavericks?

I just signed up for FIOS and am not experiencing your problem (had enough other ones instead).
Go to mail preferences ~ click on a mail account ~ click on the advanced tab. The only settings that worked for me were: port 110 SSL OFF, authentication: Authenticated POP (APOP). If I remember correctly when I first set this up another window opened and I typed in my password and never had to do that again.
Hope this helps.

HP Laserjet 4250 Network Printer Connection Issues

Hello
We have a HP 4250 Laserjet network printer set up as a shared printer on our Windows Server 2003 32-bit print server.
We are using the latest PCL 5e 32-bit drivers and have now added the PCL 5e 64-bit drivers to accomodate a new Windows 7 Pro 64-bit Laptop. However, although it appears to pull the driver across properly, it fails to communicate and complete the installation with the following error:
"Printer Cannot Connect Operation Failed' error 0000007e
I have apoplied the hotfix addressed which addresses a similar problem but this made no difference. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/981070/en-gb
Any ideas what I could try next?
Kind Regards

PRINT FORMAT issue

Hi ALL,
We have recently upgraded to ECC 6.0.
We are facing an issue with the print format. In the BG job, we have set the page format as 'X_65_132', but when it is creating the spool it is changing the format to X_65_255.
Please give your valuable suggestions on what could be the reason for this?

most probably this is an unicode issue.
/correction
my above statement is crap. it should be the printer setting which make this happen.
just try the proposal of the poster below.

Network Printer Latency issue

Dear All,
i am posting for the first time in this forum, i usually go through other peoples similar issues and see the solution they are provided, but this time i have failed and decided to ask my own question,
i am taking care of a small network in our office, we have about 20 users connected and 5 printers on the network, but lately we have latency issues when printing something from any computer to any printer on the network, it will take 4-15 minutes
untill the document is printed out, weather a page of text or anything smaller,
i have everything connected to a Dlink DGS 1210-48 Gigabit switch, i have tried changing the cable to the printers, i have updated and reinstalled drivers still no luck,
and i have noticed that its not the driver problem because when i ping the printer ips it gives me a consistent <1ms reply and then suddenly there is one destination host unreachable reply then it proceeds with <1ms reply for maybe 1 or 2 minutes then
again destination host unreachable reply,
please if any suggestions i will really appreciate

Hi,
For this problem, its hard to identify where the problem it is, but firstly, it would be better to confirm if it is every client PC had this problem.
Then check Firewall settings if it caused the problem.
If we still couldn't find the reason of this problem, it would be better to use Netowrk Monitor to capture network trace if it is DNS resolution or other unknown reason cause the problem.
Using Network Monitor to capture trace, you can set filter to IP address, then make a trace both Client PC and the computer which connect with printer.

Reports 6 - Print Formatting Issues

If our default printer is 'HP Laser1' and we send a bitmap Reports 6 report to the previewer (where page 1 gets formatted so you can see it) and then change the printer from the previewer to 'Genicom Printer', page 1 will be formatted properly, but the remaining pages will be formatted with symbols. In addition, some reports are only printing half the page, leaving the right side blank (not accepting pagesize parameters).
What I'm looking for are instructions or documentation specific to setting up a printing environment where there are multiple printer types, but where reports may be printed on any printer. I have found information in Oracle documentation which alludes to usage of files containing lists of printers and associated fonts for translation or using the desttype parameter etc.
I think we can set up an environment that works, but there may be a better way. Has anyone had experiences along this line?

One thing you might do is this. Don't display the Title View in your reports. You can do this either by deleting the views from the Compound Layout or, within Edit Dashboard, by selecting only the view that contains the report. (Obviously, if your report has several view, you would need to choose the first route.)
Instead of the Title View, do this: In the Dashboard section which contains both reports, click on the "Rename" button. Type the name of that best illustrates both reports, check the "Display Section Heading" checkbox and click "OK."
Next, click the "Rename" button again and this time go in to the formatting section to format as required. (Note: After you check the checkbox, if you don't click "OK" right after, the check mark won't stick. So click "OK" and then go back in to do any formatting you wish.)
This method allows the user to collapse the section and still see what the section is about. This is good practice when you have several reports in one dashboard page. Even collapsing all the sections, you can see what is "inside" and expand the appropriate section.

ICal printing/format issues

I can not get my iCal to print entirely on a single page (standard 8.5 x 11) OR in color. Under normal circumstances I would say it's my printer...but I have no issues at all printing my MS Office Calendar or anything else. Is anyone else having this issue? Any help would be REALLY appreciated. Thanks!

Where do I start - it was an easy but long winded process. Firstly when you plug your iPod in and start iTunes you have the option of just pressing "sync" at the bottom. Each time you sync this way the colours on the iPod remain the same not necessarily the same as in iCal but the same on the iPod. With the iPod plugged in go to the "info" tab and right down the bottom choose "Replace information on this iPod" and click the "calendars" checkbox. You will then see "Apply" on the bottom right. Click this and the iPod will just sync from your calendar. Each time you do this the colours change on the iPod. Repeat this process as many times as you wish until you get the colours the way you want them. When you have done this go to iCal and highlight the calendar you want to change the colour for then right click or hold ctrl and left click (if you have a single button mouse). Then "get info". In this tab you will see the colour for the calendar. Click to change it to the same colour as on your iPod. Do this for each of your calendars. Next time you sync your iPod on the main summary screen the colours should stay the same. Painful, I know but a work around non the less.

Formatting issue with network printer

I have a bitmap report with a repeating frame (1/2" X 2") that
prints 3 across and 10 down per page in Reports 10g(9.0.4)
Text inside the frame is size 8 Helvetica. I am getting a huge difference
in formatting when I send it directly to network printer(in Unix) versus
when I do STD Screen in Pdf format and send it to local printer in windows.
Output in network printer is bigger and wider, it almost overflows from the
page, where as its perfectly fine when I display the output in Pdf and send it to
local printer.
Is there a way to fix this problem so the output looks exactly the same whether
you send it to network printer or to pdf?
thanks
arniko

Hi Arniko,
Have a look at : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10464_05/bi.904/b13673/pbr_font.htm I think it offers a good starting point to troubleshoot the issues when printing fonts in reports on Unix.
Thanks,

Acrobat Reader 8.1.2 network print issue after installing XP SP3

I administer a network of 30+ workstations, and since installing Acrobat 8.1.2 and Windows XP Service Pack 3, I've been experiencing odd behavior from the print function in the reader.
Staff can open a pdf document with no issues, but when they try to print to a network printer, nothing happens. I then in turn open wordpad on their workstation, do a "File, Print", and the print functions properly.
I then can go back to the reader, and the print job will work.
Nothing has changed on my network in regards to previous settings, with the exception of installing reader 8.1.2, and XP SP3.
Any ideas, or potential solutions?

You are not alone. I hope you get some response. We have seen nor heard anything.
See: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/?13@@.59b56569/6
Title: Adobe Reader v8.1.2 Compatible with Windows XP Pro SP3
One ray of hope is that it seems to be getting quicker. I don't know why but I'll take it!
When I go to this Windows XP link,
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/windowsxp/default.mspx
it says I am running SP2 instead of saying I am running SP3, which is what my System Properties says is installed. Just something to think about and perhaps check.
Good luck!

Basic tiger server printing to network printer issues - HELP :)

Hi everyone, Im after some help as im running out of ideas, here is my basic setup: (sorry i have rambled on a bit
current 192.168.0.x network that has ADSL, PC's HP Laserjet 5Si network printer.
Connected to that is my Tiger server with 2 lan ports, one is connected to that network and the other connected to a switch where I run all my macs - the server is a basic file and software update server.
macs connected to the server get a 192.168.2.x address and can access the internet and each other etc - all is happy.
now - I had my personal macbook pro connected directly to the first network to access the printer, works fine and fairly quickly but was unable to access the server (i imagine because the server thinks i was from the big bad internet from the .0.x range
once i connected to the other network served by the mac server i could access all the files fine but printing would not work, so i thought I would have the server access the printer as it has access to both networks and just share it to the local macs.
well when i add it and put in the 192.168.0.71 address it connects and loads the GIMP HP5si driver, but when it tried to print it takes up to 5 mins to show that its finished, but only sometimes does the printer actually fire up, and the times it did it never printed the whole page...
The only thing i can think of is that the server is trying to print to the .0.x address'ed printer but using the .2.x address range, possibly confusing the systems.., im not too familiar with all the firewall/NAT settings ,i think i have everything turned off, but its still not working..
If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated, im not sure what else to do.
Thank you for your time

This sounds more like a protocol or a driver issue rather than an addressing issue. Which protocol is being used to connect to the printer? You mention the GIMP driver gets loaded, which I read that it's an automatic function rather than you having to manually browse to the driver.
Also, I would look at trying the Gutenprint drivers from Sourceforge rather than the included GIMP-Print.
The other thing would be to check the cups error log on the server. It could give some clues as to why the spool file is taking so long.

How does one print to a Large Format Network Printer in Adobe Reader X?

I have just installed Adobe Reader X on a machine that previously had Adobe Reader 9 (I had to format the hard drive so this is a fresh installation). When attempting to print to a large format Printer (36x24) across the network I cannot change the paper size. Despite attempting to change the paper size to a number of different configurations Adobe X will not print anything but 8.5"x11.0" (which is the default paper size on the local printer). I have tried making the network printer the default printer and that does not make any difference. Everything worked fine with Adobe Reader 9 but not X. Can anyone offer any suggestions?
Also, I can print to both the local printer and the large format network printer fine through other applications.
Thanks.

Just finished testing 10.10 printing via a Windows 2008 R2 print share. I also found that when trying to add the printer using CUPS I would get an authentication error. But if I added the printer using the Windows section of the Add printer pane, then I was able to print fine.
So with you mentioning that using the Windows section of the Add printer window has never worked (which is interesting because it's always worked for me) I want to suggest another approach to adding the printer, still using the Add printer window. With this window open you can right-click on the toolbar and select Customize Toolbar. You can then drag the Advanced icon to the toolbar. Then when you select this, you can set the Type menu to "Windows via spoolss" and then enter the URL as smb://servername/sharename. Select the supporting driver and click Add to complete.
Then when you select to print for the first time using this printer you will be prompted to authenticate. Enter the account details, set the save to Keychain option and OK to send the print job.
This worked fine for me and creates the same queue as using the Windows add printer setting. Curious to hear if this gets your co-worker printing again.

Microsoft Excel Mac Issues - Print Format

I have Microsoft Office Mac 2008 and just purchased Microsoft Office Mac2011.
There is a formatting issue with printing spreadsheets as Excel defaults to Portrait and 100% Scaling. I save the Excel worksheets formatted as Landscape and 60% Scaling in order to fit each worksheet on one page. However, when I then reopen a spreadsheet and attempt to print, Excel frequently defaults to Portrait and 100% scale, so the worksheet may then take four pages to print.
This is very frustrating and unprofessional when I send the spreadsheet to a third party. It appears as if I don't know how to format the Print function.
I spent more than an hour with Mac technical support, but they could not resolve the issue. We uninstalled Office, including all of the Libraries, several times, but the problem persists.
I hoped that Microsoft Office Mac 2011 would resolve the issue, but it is still a problem.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Does anyone have a solution?
Thank you very much.

Printing issues on network printer (Sharp MX-N700N)

Hi all,
Well my issue is twofold really. Primarily, I need to be able to print to a network printer which is the Sharp MX-M700N. Now it's on a windows network, so I added it to my printer list via it's IP address. So far so good...so now I have the latest driver avaialble from the Sharp consumer website (sharp-usa.com) and what happens is anytime I try to print anything, the job automatically goes on pause. Even if I click resume, it then pauses again immediately.
Now the second part of my issue, is that other people in my office who are also on Macs running 10.5.2 have added this printer via it's IP, but they used an older driver (for version 10.4.x) that was downloaded off of the Sharp service site, accessible only by authorized technicians. Now here's the thing....they can print to it perfectly.
So immediate thought is...use the driver they're using right? Well, when I try to install that driver, it's telling me it can't because a newer version is already installed. I've gone into Macintosh HD > Library > Printers to find the driver to try and delete it, but there's tons of stuff in the Sharp folder there and I'm worried about just randomly deleting files.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Reading through your post, you may find that the latest driver you have will work, you just might have to ensure you have the correct protocol selected and queue name entered. If you look at one of the other Mac's that is working, you can select the print in the list, select 'Open Print Queue' and then select the Info icon. This will display the General tab and in the lower section next to URI will be the protocol and queue used; ex lpd://ip_address/print.
If you do have the exact settings in your Mac, and you want to look at removing the driver, then check that an uninstaller is not included with the driver installer. I've seen with the Canon copier drivers, you have the option to Uninstall and this removes all the files located in /Library/Printers/Canon/PS. Hopefully you have something the same for the Sharp.
If not, then copy the contents of the Sharp folder to another location and then delete the original folder contents.

HP deskjet 3520 network print issues

Getting towards the end of my rope. I have an HP deskjet 3520 with wireless print capability from the network and have successfully been able to send jobs to the printer to print for the last 11 months. It can no longer print jobs from the network despite having an IP address and being visible by all machines connected to the network.
Each time I try to send a document to be printed.
I do not have MAC address filtering enabled on the router. I've updated the firmware via USB connection and re-installed the drivers and software to no effect. I've power-cycled the device, restarted the computer(s) that would print via the network to the printer, etc. I've done everything that I know how to get network printing fixed with no success.
I've also run the print doctor 4.5 program which can find the printer on the network, but then gets no response from the device when trying to access it.
Has anyone else had a similar problem with this model? Any ideas as to what can be done to get it to start printing documents that get sent to it form the network? I've been directed to this forum off web searches, but there are a lot of responses with links in them that have ether been relocated to a different web address, or have been deleted.
Any help is greatly apprectiated.
Thank you for your time.

Hey @Tom801,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I would like assist you today with resolving the network communication issues you're experiencing with your HP Deskjet 3520 e-All-in-One Printer. As I understand, you are able to 'see' the printer through the Print and Scan Doctor and from the other computers on your network. But, you are not able to print to the Deskjet. I have a few troubleshooting suggestions to start with.
Gather the IP Address:
1. Select the Wireless Button on the front panel of your printer.
2. Your IP address should now display, please note down what this is.
Open the EWS Browser:
1. On one of the computers that you would normally use with this printer, open your Internet Browser.
2. In the website address bar at the top of the page type in your IP address (do not include www.)
3. Select enter on your keyboard to search for the printer Embedded Web Server.
Does a website open for your printer?
If the printers website opens than that proves that the printer is in fact still connected and communicating with your wireless network. If the website fails to open than the printer is being blocked from the network.
You noted in your post that you have Mac Filtering disabled, updated the firmware for the printer, and powercycled the printer and computer. Did you ever powercycle the router? If not, can I please have you do that now.
How to Properly Powercycle your Network:
1. First, unplug your routers power cable
2. Power off your printer
3. Power off your computer
4. After 30 seconds to 1 minute plug in your router
5. Turn on your printer
6. Turn on your computer
Once the network connection is re-established on your computer and printer please check your IP address once again on the printer using the steps I provided above.
Can you open the printer website now with the IP Address?
If yes, than it seems like your router had blocked communication to the printer. To avoid this in the future you can:
Open the Router Ports:
- Incoming (UDP) Ports:
137, 138, 161, 427
- Outgoing (TCP) Ports:
137, 139, 427, 9100, 9220, 9500
Also, you can refer to the steps within Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection for additional configuration options. Focus on Solution two for assigning a static IP.
Please let me know if the steps provided resolve you issue. Good luck!

HP 1200 Network Printing issue

I am a Mac user on a Windows Network. We have an HP 1200 that I have always been able to print to on the network. Our Tech guy upgraded the network this summer and now the HP 1200 doesn't show up when I run Printer Set Up Utility. What do I need to tell the Tech guy to do to get the printer to show up?

My guess is that it is no longer shared out the way it used to be. Since it is not (it has a USB and paralel connection, but no ethernet connection) a true network printer, you'd really need ask him what he changed about the way it was shared out, and then report back if you two can't figure it out from there. It could have been accessible a few different ways, so folks here could only guess what has changed.
