Supported printers not showing up in printer device drop down list

I'm new to Mac so hopefully this is a problem that has been solved a hundred times over.
I have a Canon i960 and an HP LaserJet 1012. Both Canon and HP state that Tiger 10.4.6 have built in drivers to support the printers. When I plug either printer in directly to the mbp, both are recognized immediately and work great.
The problem is that I still use two Windows PC's in the house and the printers are both connected to the PC. I can share the Printers from the PC, and the mbp can see both of them, but the printer setup asks me to choose the device type, and neither of my printers show up in the list. I went out and bought a print server thinking I could solve the problem that way, and have the same problem... the device list does not display the i960 or the 1012.
Not sure why I can plug the printers directly into the MacBook Pro and they are recognized immediately as the correct printer and they load the proper driver, but when the printers are shared (either through Windows or through the print server), I cannot select the proper printer from the device list, and therefore cannot print to the printers.

I answered in the other topic first...
Close to zero non-postscript drivers provided by manufacturers are capable of Windows/network printing. You need CUPS drivers for network printing. For the laserjet, you can install hpijs and ESP ghostscript from:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hpijs/
For the Canon, the only known CUPS drivers are from: http://www.printfab.net

  • How do I restore an old Iphone 3gs backup if it does not appear in the "restore backup" drop-down list?

    Hi
    Last night I tried to install ios 6.1.2. The install failed. I tried again and this time it recommended restoring the phone - I agreed and it worked, but after the restore was completed, I could not get out of the set-up assistant screens on the phone. It kept saying either connect to Itunes, or connected to Itunes - there was no conclusion of the set-up process.
    So again I chose to restore the phone - this time I got through the process and asked it to restore my last back up. It did so, but it turns out the back-up is empty. Looking at the time of the back-up, I think what happened is the phone  synced while it was stuck in the set-up assistant, and the old backup with all my data was overwritten with a new empty back up.
    If I use windows explorer I can see a back-up set from earlier in the evening that should contain all my data (6pm)  but when I look in iTunes that backup set is not available for selection in the "restore back-up" drop down list. Perhaps its only a partially completed backup, but at 1.55gb it sure contains a lot of valuable data. How can I make iTunes see or use the 6pm backup set?

    yes - sadly I think that's what happened. As the phone was connected, it was syncing and backing up automatically while I tried to complete the set-up process. So an empty back-up overwrote the full one. But the full back up is still there in the application data files - it must have done a back-up automatically before it restored the phone. So why can't I see it and use it in iTunes? Very frustrating!

  • Is it possible to show first item in a Drop down list

    Is it possible to automatically display the first item in a drop down list ?
    The reason I ask is  ... I am generating pre-filled PDF forms using XML data files.
    Whenever there is a certain type of data I am populating a drop down list for the user to review.
    Currently, the user must click on the drop down to see if data is there regardless of whether there is no data at all or many data lines of data..
    I would like to make it clear to the user whether or not there is any data - right awa.y
    I have considered creating a display item next (like a check box or a text field ) next to the drop down and setting it to cindicate if there is data, etc -
    but i thougth that I would ask if the drop down could simply be set to automatically display the first item in the list (this is the preferred functionality)
    If this is not possible I can always create a check box and set it if there is any data as an  indicator for the user ..
    Thanks

    You can do this way..
    Place the code in Inititalize event with Java Script
    if(DropDownList1.rawValue == null)
        DropDownList1.selectedIndex = 0;
    You need to check if the Dropdown has a value selected from the previous save.. If not then set the selected item to 0th index. (which is 1st one in the dropdown values)..
    Thanks

  • Detail region does not refresh when selecting from a drop-down list in master region

    I am using DW CS3 and have updated to version 1.6.1 of Spry.  Using an XML dataset, I am able to create a Spry table as the master region that links to a detail region that displays a small JPG graphic.  It works fine in this format (clicking on a row displays the correct graphic).  However, my table has 80 rows and requires the user to do too much scrolling. So I changed the master region to a drop-down repeat list, but the graphic does not change when a new selection is made in the drop down list.  Listed below is the code produced when I used the insert Spry Repeat List.  I got the same results when adding a spry:setrow="dsChartNurse".  I also tried -- onclick="dsChartNurse.setCurrentRow('{ds_RowID}');" -- which again made no difference.
    When I removed children from the spry:repeat, the master region displayed as a two column list of all 80 items in a drop-down list format.
    <div spry:region="dsChartNurse">
           <select name="select" spry:repeatchildren="dsChartNurse">
             <option value="{name}">{name}</option>
           </select>
    </div>
    <div id="image" spry:detailregion="dsChartNurse">
       <img src="{dataimage}" align="center" style="margin:50px 0 0 0"width="320" height="164" />
    </div>
    Thanks so much to anyone who can help correct my code in order to have a drop-down list display information correctly in the detail region.

    Thanks for the quick reply.  I did solve the problem I was having by changing from onclick to onchange in the master region.  But, now I have another problem with, of course, IE.  I just put in online at http://www.minursemap.org/ageDistNurse.html.  When opened in IE, the drop down list displays the last entry, but the image is for the first in the list.  Thanks again for your help.

  • When trying to assign IP reservation in IPAM, Domain does not appear in Forward lookup zone drop-down list

    I am trying to assign reserved IP Addresses through IPAM that is installed on a Server 2012 OS.  Here is the procedure I have been following:
    Login to IPAM server
    Open Server Manager
    In left-hand column select IPAM
    In left-center column expand IP ADDRESS SPACE
    Select IP Address Range Groups
    Right-click the appropriate address range and select Find and Allocate Available IP Address
    In new window, scroll down to Basic Configurations
    I can input the basic configurations with no problem.  DHCP Reservation Synchronizations look good too.  But when I get down to DNS Record Synchronization, I can't do anything with the Forward lookup zones because nothing appears in the drop-down
    lists and I cannot manually enter the zone name.  Here is a screen shot of what I see at this point:
    Without completing this information, I cannot complete the Address Reservation.
    Any help or insight will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Tom LaLumiere

    Hi Tom,
    This happens if your DNS servers that are managed by IPAM are not authoritative and primary for any zones, if they are not authoritative for the appropriate zones, or if there are not any DNS servers managed by IPAM.
    See the examples below. Here my DNS server is authoritative for 4 forward zones and 2 reverse zones. I can choose any of the forward zones but assuming I pick a range such as 10.0.1.0, I would be unable to choose the 168.192.in-addr.arpa zone because the
    IP addresses do not match.

  • Workflows table is not showing up in Data Manager drop down table list

    Hi,
    I am able to see Workflows table in Console but not able to see it Data Manager drop down table list in record mode for selection.
    Even not allowed to create another workflow table.
    Thanks for any tips/clue
    -reo

    Reo,
    You will not be able to create another workflow table. There is only a single workflow table that will hold all the workflows you create through the Data Manager.
    As Vito mentioned, please make sure to load the corresponding MDMWorkflow component on the client machines running the Data Manager that you wish to create and view workflows from.
    Once the workflow component is installed you should see it as a new tab in the Data Manager. You will need Visio to create workflows.
    Thanks,

  • My mac book air is not showing internal speakers in the drop down

    I had attached speakers to my mac book air. Now after disconnecting them my note book isn't detecting its own in built speakers. When I switch it on the sound comes through the speakers but after that you can only listen to stuff via head phones.

    Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.
    Go step by step and test.
    1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
        Highlight  Internal Speakers / Headphones
        Make sure that Mute is not enabled.
    2. Remove the headphone.
        If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
        in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
        Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
    3. Reset PRAM.  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
    4. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

        Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so, uncheck it.

  • I have a newer computer and I am trying to install Acrobat 9 pro. when I try to open the program it will not let me complete set up because software does not have acrobat 9 in the drop down list.

    Downloading, Installing, Setting Up

    It sounds like you might be dealing with an upgrade situation where it is asking you to select the previous 'qualifying' version that you upgraded from.  If that's the case then you will need to find the serial number for that older version as well.

  • How to show first parameter value in drop down list as a default value dynamically in ssrs report?

    Hi,
    in my ssrs report i have two parameters, accounts and Manager ,there is a cascading between the accounts parameter and manager parameter, as per the cascading we will get managers names based on the account we selected in the accounts parameter,
    my requirement is the first name in the mangers drop down list  has to get selected as default value.
    please help me with this, it is an urgent requirement.
    Thanks in advance,
    Naveen

    Hi NaveenMSBI,
    According to your description, you want to use cascading parameters in the report, if the accounts are selected when you preview the report, the first manager name will be selected from drop down list as the default value. If so, there can be two scenarios:
    • If manager is single-valued parameter, we can get Available Values and Default Values from the same query as below. Then when the accounts are selected, the first manager name will be selected as default value.
    SELECT managerName FROM table_name WHERE accounts IN (@accounts)
    • If manager is multi-valued parameter, we need to use different query for Available Values and Default Values. In this case, please refer to Patrick’s solution.
    For more information about Adding Cascading Parameters, please refer to the following document:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa337498(v=sql.105).aspx
    If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.

  • How to show "ALL" Values by default in Page Drop-Down Lists in Pivot Tables

    Hi Everyone,
    Iam stuck with 1 problem please can any 1 help me if u know the solution.
    Here is my problem:
    How to show "ALL" Values by default in Page Drop-Down Lists in Oracle BI Pivot Tables?
    For example, if you place Region in the pages area, a Region drop-down list allows the user to select a particular region, and see the data for only that region, rather than seeing all the Regions,But by default its not showing "ALL" option in the drop down list ,rather than doing that its showing result for only 1 region by default.
    And an other problem with this pages area is, if we palce the multiple attributes in the Pages area in the pivot table, the (Fields)result is showing in vertically, the attributes 1 by 1(Every attribute in a new line) ,rather than showing like that, is there any way to show the results in horizantally?(We want to have it as a seperate drop drown list for every field horizantally not as a concatenated list).

    Thanks Nikhil. But I am fetching the values from the LOVCache.java.
    I am using <af:selectManyChoice>. Is there any way I can use LOVCache.java value for selecting default values instead of hard coding?
    I mean to say can I write
    unselectedLabel="#{LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList.anyValue}"
    where LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList is used to populate the drop down box.

    Aseet
