Standard print settings seem to change, can't be saved

I'm having trouble with the standard print settings. One time I'll print and it will default to landscape, the next time it will be portrait. If I try to change it and then save it, the Save option is grayed out. Only Save As is available and it won't let me save it as Standard. The paper size changes, too. It will be letter for awhile, then the next time it will be 4x6 prints. Keep in mind that all of this is in Standard preset.
I have two printers and I haven't noticed a pattern to this as I switch between printers. I just want the Standard preset to be the same all the time.

Where do you find Page Setup in Safari? or Mail? As I mentioned in my post, if I change it to portrait orientation letter size to print the page I'm on now, the next page I get ready to print might be set to print in landscape orientation at 4x6 paper. I'm having to reconfigure every page I print every time I print.

Is it possible to get itunes music videos to play or do I need to get new ipod.   It works on my iPad and iPhone, but not through iPod Classic.

    Are these music videos located under Videos on your iPod?  Do it play other regular movies (if you have any on the device)?

    I’m using an iMac running Os X Yosemite, Photoshop CS5 Extended, R2880 Epson printer  In the Print Settings dialog box, I can’t select Color, Advanced BW or Grayscale unless I select “Printer Manages Color”. The pull down menu is grayed out. Even with “printer manages color” the tif or jpg image comes out in color overlaid with black. (See example - printer1. image on left is close to what it should be). Photoshop has no updates pending. I’ve downloaded the latest Epson driver which was working fine just before the problem occurred

    Is your Photoshop CS5 updated to 12.1?

  • Printer Settings will not change

    My printer default settings are stuck at 60% size, and I have attmpeted to modify the default settings and create new presets, and it always reverts to 60%. I just bought a new printer and it is still doing the same thing. If anyone can offer any advice how I may solve this problem I would be so grateful. I am using an iMac OS 10.7.5

  • Password manager no longer works...settings seem ok..can you help ??

    I have looked at the settings, they seem ok...I dont get the bar at the top asking if I would like FFox to remember passwords. It was working earlier this year but not now....not sure if it since FFox was updated

    Firefox 4 doesn't show a bar but adds a key icon to the location bar and opens a pop-up dialog similar to what you get if you click the highlighted star to edit a bookmarked page.

  • Can you save print settings with a PDF?

    I have an 8.5"x14" PDF. Is there anyway to save default print settings with this PDF so if a user opens it on their machine it defaults to printing to 8.5"x14" paper? Right now it always defaults to the standard 8.5"x11". I'm not sure this can be done because it seems like more of a specific users machine thing. I don't think you can save print settings with a PDF can you?
    Thanks!

    The "auto-formatting" of a hardcopy print format is generally the realm of the output device, in this case the printer. Printer software gereally includes an auto-format feature that selects the proper bin. For those who only have a "letter" tray, it usually asks to feed the right format manually, or switch trays. This is not a PDF feature but an output device feature.
    Hope this helps.

  • Photoshop CS6 freezes with attempts to change printer settings

    (This problem also occurs with InDesign CS6, so I will post to that forum as well. First one to give me a solution gets my undying love and devotion appreciation.)
    My employer acquired a Canon 6010 printer with a Fiery print controller last year. I have no problems printing from my personal Windows laptop. 
    However, from my employer's iMac (OS X 10.6.8) I get the spinning beach ball of death at least 90% of the time that I open an existing document and attempt to change the printer settings. The only way out is via Force Quit. Inexplicably I can occasionally succeed in changing printer settings. I think the record was having to force quit the application 11 times. Not sure - I quit counting.
    So far our only semi-consistent work around: create a new document and copy and paste the contents from the existing document. Not cool. But sometimes the app freezes with brand new documents, thus destroying my work around anyway.
    Additional Information:
    I have installed all CS6 upgrades.
    Our technical support contractor recreated the problem and could not find any solution other than the work around.
    Canon says the problem is with the applications.
    This happens whether I attempt to change the printer settings immediately or make changes to the document first.
    It does not matter what other applications are running.
    Rebooting the system after the app freezes does not make it work.
    We cannot upgrade past 10.6.8 because of the age of the hardware. But CS6 is supposed to run on Snow Leopard.
    I have tested this with other applications, including some older Adobe software. It does not happen with Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, InDesign CS3, Photoshop CS3, Acrobat 8 Pro, Acrobat 9 Pro or Acrobat XI Pro.
    This happens whether the documents were created and saved on the Mac or on a Windows computer.
    Re-saving the documents and/or printer settings does not change the outcome. Once I restart the application Photoshop may remember the paper size, but doesn't remember duplex settings. (From another thread in this forum I suspect a corrupt printer preferences file.)
    Per the instructions in the other thread I reset the printing preferences by launching the app while holding down shift-control-command. That enabled me to change the printer settings one time. Every subsequent attempt brought back the spinning beach ball.
    No other employees report similar problems (including a few MacBook users). However, they do not use Photoshop or InDesign, nor do they typically change printer settings.
    Sorry if some of that is irrelevant - just trying to give you as much info as possible and tell you what I've tried already. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Bonnie

    Nanneri, my situation is similar in that creating the PDF and printing from that does take longer than just printing from InDesign and Photoshop.
    I finally got a Canon tech rep on site who understood my problem. Though we had tried reinstalling the drivers (as had previous Canon reps), this guy got it right. Neither Photoshop nor InDesign has locked up since - at least not for the Canon 6010. (Photoshop has locked up twice when I've attempted to print to a Canon iPF8300s wideformat that isn't on the Fiery. Restarting PS has fixed that.)
    Based on my experience, I would start with new drivers.
    FYI: I am having problems printing to a new Canon C7065 that also uses Fiery. But the problems vary and I haven't isolated the factors. Sometimes I get a printed error report. Sometimes it just doesn't print. But no more software lockups.
    In our case, I suspected our problems were related to having old hardware that can't be upgraded past OS X 10.6.8, which is the oldest OS compatible with both CS6 and the Fiery. But since you are on a newer OS, and a different printer, I'm beginning to wonder about the Fiery.
    Hope you find a solution soon. Keep us posted!

  • Printing settings Q

    The default setting for Colorsync Profile Is "System Managed". What does this mean? I am using a Canon i8500 and changing its standard color settings did not change the color of the pictures. What have I done wrong?
    Mark

    So, I have changed to one of the i8500 specific printer settings in Aperture and to Colorsync as the color management of my printer and now I can adj color to a fairly good reproduction. How are the rest of you handling printing? Do you do it from Photoshop?

  • Where is the Print Settings Dialog?

    Hello everyone,
    I was trying to print sheet music from my Sibelius application. It would not print the final bar. I changed the black ink on my Canon i850 and updated the driver. Still the final bar would not print.
    I posted my issue on the Sibelius discussion site and was told to open the File>Print dialog, go to the Print Settings dialog, then set "substitute resolution" to 300, if I am using Mac OS 10.4.
    I am using Mac OS 10.4.6. I tried to follow the instructions but I couldn't because I could not find a Print Settings dialog.
    How can I find 'Substitute resolution' in my computer?

    Hi there,
    When you click File you should have 'Page Setup' and 'Print' as menu options.
    If you select 'Print' you will see the print dialog window. If you do not see a menu that is defaulted to 'Copies & Pages', then the application may have what is called a Simplified Print dialog, similar to what you get with Preview. But you should have an option to select Advanced, which will open the normal print window. Here you should be able to select your resolution, depending on which driver you are using for the i850.
    The other thing I would check is File > Page Setup. If the sheet is set to A4 but your printed page is set to Letter, then you can loose about 20mm (which is close to an inch) from the bottom of the print (FYI - A4 is 297mm long while Letter is 279mm).
    Regards,
    Paul

  • Disableing the printer color management in the printer settings box

    Hello
    I am printing on a Epsonstylus r1800 printer using windows 8..  Printer has new drivers v6.55 The Adobe print setup reminds me to disable the printer color management in the print settings box. I can't find where to do this in the print settings box. Resulting in color that is way off. Any thoughts?

    Must be done in the printer driver.
    This is an example for the Epson 3880
    First click on Print settings and in the dialog that opens look for Color Adjustment but that differs with the printer model...

  • Can't change print settings on HP C4280

    Hi everyone, I can't change the print settings on my HP C4280 printer. I click the third drop down (Copies & Pages) menu after clicking print on a word document or webpage and I am able to see all the options (paper handling, scheduler, etc.- . I am also able to see advanced setting after clicking everything except paper type/quality, borderless printing, and printer driver information. When I click these 3 just mentioned, the advanced settings part that is supposed to load up is just blank- ) .
    I have installed the driver and all other hp junk that I downloaded again from HP's website. Anyone have an idea how to solve the issue? I'm thinking the included leopard driver is being used and not the new HP one. I've tried selecting the new driver in system preferences but I don't know where the new driver is located.
    Thanks in advance. I appreciate your help since the printer guzzles ink in the standard setting.

    Seems like several people are having this problem. HP was actually very knowledgeable and helpful though. A simple manual uninstall and reinstall worked for me, but here are more comprehensive instructions from HP if you're still having trouble.
    The issue you are describing would require a more intensive uninstall procedure. Double-click on Macintosh HD, Applications, Hewlett-Packard, HP Uninstaller. Proceed to the second screen of the uninstall, that asks you to select the device to remove. On this screen, hold the control, option, and command buttons (the three buttons on the bottom row of the keyboard, to the left of the spacebar). While holding the buttons, click the uninstall button. An additional screen will appear with a prompt to confirm.
    Be advised, when you click yes all HP software items will be completely removed from the computer. This would include all items installed for other HP devices, as well as the driver package that is preloaded in the operating system. Any other HP devices that are currently installed will have to be reinstalled using compatible versions and the driver set would need to be reloaded from the Leopard DVD if you needed it for any older HP printers.
    Click on yes, the uninstall may then take several minutes. Once the uninstaller has completed, empty the trash and restart the computer. When the computer has finished restarting, double-click on Macintosh HD, Applications, Utilities, Disk Utility. In the disk utility, highlight your Macintosh HD on the right, then click repair disk permissions on the right. The disk permissions repair may also take several minutes. After the repair is complete, close all windows and restart the computer again.
    You would then be ready to reinstall the HP software. For your operating system version, you are recommended to only install the software version 9.7.1. Which is a comprehensive installation and includes the update item as well as support for 10.5.2. If you no longer have the file you previously download, it is not version 9.7.1, or you are unsure as to which version it is, then you may download the software from our site at the following link.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-55008-2 &lc=en&cc=us&product=3192753&os=219&dlc=en&lang=en
    This should resolve the issue. If you need further assistance, please reply to this message and we will be happy to assist you further.

  • When I print, resolution changes, can I reset Acrobat to default settings?

    I can't see any issue with any of my settings though shortly after reinstalling CS a month ago, Acrobat started printing to a much lower resolution than the PSD (or any application) is set to print to, though Photoshop may be the only one where I am actively looking into resolution issues because...
    Every resulting PDF I get is about 1x1", when I'm starting with a letter size doc (or any other size, they all shrink down that dramatically in Acrobat iwth the resulting PDF).
    Checking all resolution settings in Advanced Print Settings dialogs all -look- like they're fine. Is there a way to reset the whole shebang to installation default settings to help correct this traumatic happening which always happens just as I need to send a PDF off to someone of course.
    Thanks for your help in advance, I really appreciate any tips or if the default thing is easy, thanks! 

    Hi, thanks. Do you mean Save As - Photoshop PDF, or... how are you referring to doing that? 
    (Thank you for this!  I had taken to making screenshots for pete's sake, though this change happened suddenly, so ... I have no idea why printing to PDF suddenly didn't work and it seems it should be "repairable".)

  • I have icloud on all my devices I changed my email address and my password for them, but I can't seem to change it all for icloud. It won't let me. I keep getting a window popping up on all them asking to go to settings but in settings it won't allow me

    I cannot seem to change my email address and password on icloud. I have changed it in itunes. But On all my apple products it will not let me, I just keep getting a window popping up on all of them asking me to go to settings but when I go into setting I cannot get it to change. Help !!!

    Go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with your new credentials.  If all you did was modify your existing ID rather than creating and entirely new ID, you can choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted.  Your data will still be in iCloud and will download to your phone when you sign back in.

  • FF29 Linux, can not stop FF from printing coverpage although I changed the settings to no coverpage.

    FF29.0.1 for Linux, prints unwanted cover pages to all print outs from Firefox.
    The page contains nine lines of informative text such as Media Limits, Job ID, driver, driver version, description (of printer), driver version once more but instead of driver version it says my Printer Name, Make and Model, Printer (again) and finally Created at and Printed at. All this info is correct but as I see it exaggerated and UNWANTED and the settings can not be changed.
    Here comes the real problem: Archive Menu/Print or ctrlP,presents to me a 5 tabbed settings page, amongst them "Job", (number 4 from left). To the left there is an option to add coverpages before or after. Have tried to change this behaviour to no one. But still I receive this extra page. This is something that has come with this version, I did not notice it in 27.0.1-1 or any earlier versions.
    How do I stop this unwanted pages?

    This is not a Firefox issue. This is about the settings of your printer software. If
    you can't get the settings to do what you want, you should contact the printers
    support page / phone number.
