Text won't print where I place it

I'm doing a greeting card in PSE3. I created a blank file 7 x 10 inches and I centred a single line of text across the bottom. According to what I see on the screen and according to the rulers it is exactly where it should be. But when I print, the text has moved over on the paper so that it is badly off-centre and a little lower than I placed it.
Any thoughts?

Hi Jack,
I'm guessing you are printing on 8 1/2" x 11" paper and the image is
being printed to the lower left by default. Try positioning the text by
adjusting the margins or borders during Print Preview.

Text won't print on Canon LBP5050 after software update, Text won't print on Canon LBP5050 after software update

I'm running OSX, 10.6.7 on a Mac mini and on a macbook pro. Since I've run an update, neither of them will print text, only pictures, on my Canon LBP5050 printer (which I bought from Apple). I've checked the drivers, and I'm already using the latest. I've reset the print process and that had no effect either. Anyone got any ideas? It rather makes the printer useless.
Thanks,
Ariane

Solution found! Delete old printer driver, restart machine then go to http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0900772205.html
With the CAPT driver installed, to add the printer, you do need to click the More Printers button. This will be located in the bottom left hand corner of the Add Printer browser.
Restart machine again and turn printer on, hopefully then you'll be able to print text and images without any problems at all! works for me and I'm on a Macbook Pro running 10.6.8

Dynamic Text won't Print - Ahhhh! Help!!!

I'm importing a png file using an xml file and a text file
for importing text. The image and text show up fine, but when I
PRINT, both don't show up. I"VE GOT TO GO LIVE WITH THIS TODAY. It
has to Print! PLEASE HELP!

I found my own answer and thought I should share it with all
of you. Since I was so surprised that you had to use ActionScript
to tell the movie to allow dynamic text or a dynamic png files to
print. You basically add the following lines for each instance of
dyanmica text or for a movie clip. I was alos using a prebuilt
component, so I had to give this component an instance name.
function printpic(){
print(this.pic, "bframe");
I called the function printpic just to stay in alignment with
the instance name of the movie clip on the stage which was pic.
Then everything printed like it was suppose to.

IPhoto won't print - where are themes? but this is really annoying.

What does this mean?
"There were no themes located. Until at least one theme has been installed, this feature will be unavailable."
I have always been able to print. I hate Events, but this is really annoying.
Thanks

Dean:
Look in your User/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder to see if there's a folder titled Themes in there. If so move it to the HD/Library/iPhoto folder and reboot. If that doesn't get iPhoto back up and printing as it should you'll have to reinstall as follows:
Restoring iPhoto Themes
1 - delete the current application.
2 - delete any files with iPhoto in the file name that reside in your HD/Library/Receipts folder.
3 - delete any Themes folder from your User/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder.
4 - delete any Themes folder from your HD/Library/iPhoto folder.
5 - boot into the system disk that came with your computer or use the iLife 08 disk and do a custom install selecting only iPhoto.
If you have problems with a custom install from your system install disk you can use Pacifistto locate, extract and install iPhoto from the disk.
After installing reinstall the iPhoto 7.1.1 updater again followed by a repair of disk permissions with Disk Utility. Also make sure you're running the latest Quicktime, 7.3.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

HP LaserJet Pro 400 MFP M425dn won't print text at 72 point size or larger

My workplace recently purchased an HP LaserJet Pro 400 MFP M425dn all-in-one printer. It works excellently with the exception of the fact that it won't print text that's 72 points or larger in size. I've tried numerous fonts that're pre-installed with Windows, and all of them print properly at point size 71.5 or smaller; anything else simply doesn't show up in prints. The content that's sized at 72 points or higher *does* affect the flow of other printed content on the page, however. It's like the 72-point or larger text is occupying space, but it's completely invisible on the printed page. I've tested this using Microsoft Word 2002 on three separate computers, two of which have Windows 7 installed and one of which has Windows Vista installed. The problem is identical on all three computers. The printer is connected via ethernet cable to our wired network. I've installed the included printer software, and I don't believe that there are any updates to it that weren't installed up to this point. Any thoughts on how to resolve this issue?

hello, i only made an account to solve this for you guys because it has been a headache for me also.... let me apologize before hand for terrible grammar and punctuation i am in a huge hurry Now this may not work for everybody but i fixed it on my machine with the following now before you print ...use (ctrl+p) in your word processor to open the print window click on (properties) then navigate to the (advanced) tab now, I have a section called printer features under this category there is an option to "send truetype as bitmap" enable this and see if it can help any of you, for me, with this ENABLED I can print any size font my word processor will allow me to type specs of my machinedell d6420win7msoft word 2007 printer itself is hp laserjet 200 color m276 printer driver is HP LaserJet 200 color MFP M276 PCL 6 i understand that this printer and driver is not identical to yours per se but the nature of these drivers makes it highly likely that this solution will work for most of you if this helps, have somebody else post it more noticeably because i will probly not be signing back in to this website i created this account just to post this and hopefully solve this annoying issue for many of you ...no kudos needed

Printer won't print text documents

My HP 4300 series all in one printer prints images but won't print text from word processor documents. If I print a test page it will only print the image part but none of the text will appear. Blank pages are printed when I attempt to print text from a word processor however images are printed perfectly from web pages etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated so that I can have full functionality of my printer again.

Hello
See if the link will help you with the printing issues.

Adobe reader shows text but won't print all the text

I have a form used by many and it works with no problem. Today one came in you could see all the text, but when printed, only some of the text appeared.
I checked it on 3 machines, also one that has Acrobat 9 on it, same results.
On the print setup, under comments and forms, I have Documents and Markup set, but if I click on "form field only" I do get the missing text.
As said we have gotten many forms from other people, no problems, so it really not for lack of knowing how to print it correctly.
The only print preview I can see I have is when I go to print it, it appears on the right, and it is missing the text there.
I have removed all name and address from the form for privacy reason, I did add my name in a few blocks and then saved it but it won't print that also.
for some reason only the top row under CPR AED and SFA print, but as you can see, there are a bunch that don't, along with all the names I removed.
Thanks in advance.
John
Any ideas?
Tuesday--still working on this, I activited the voice part of my acrobat 9 and it reads all the text while in PDF form, just won't print it.

F380 All In One won't print text

Printer will not print any text from any document. It will print photos, graphics, graphs, tables, everything except text. This is a brand new issue - it was working great; this is a new problem. I have tried printing documents from my computer and documents online including pdfs but no text will print. It has plenty of ink. I tried uninstalling the printer and driver and reinstalling them but nothing works. Help!! I have Windows 8.1 and use MS Office 365 to create most documents.
If the document has text and tables or jpegs inserted, the tables and jpegs will print fine but no text appears. If the document is just text, all I get is a blank page.

Hi @lacooper,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that text is not printing with your HP Deskjet F380 on Windows 8.1 when using Microsoft Office 365. I am happy to look into this issue for you!
What happens when you print text from NotePad? Does it work? If so, then the problem could like with Microsoft Office 365. If that is the case, then I would contact Microsoft Office Support.
If that is not the case, I would then try our HP Print and Scan Doctor, and take a look through this guide, Missing, Faded, or Dull Colors.
Best of luck!

Word 2007 won't print in color

Running Windows XP Professional. HP 1610 won't print color fonts. Does fine if I specify the printing is to be gray scale. However, text with a colored font (i.e., non-black) won't print in color. The paper just ejects quickly if I specify draft printing. If I specify that the application should choose the printing options, it appear to print slowly line by line but without actually putting any ink on the paper.
The cartridges are fine and work with other applications.

I think a setting in the Printing Preferences on your PC where it prints all text as black has been enabled. I'm not sure of the exactly place you'll find it, but it is usually located in one of the tabs in Printing Preferences. I'm attaching a screenshot of another printers' settings window as a reference.

Crop marks won't print

I’ve only run into this with one client. He sends me individual epses, each one a business card to print. When I open them in Illustrator it looks like there are crop marks and bleed, when I place in InDesign, as I always do, to set 8 up on a page the bleed won’t print and the crop marks won’t print. I can enlarge the object box and see the bleed and crop marks but they still wont print. If I print directly from Illustrator just to test it, it will print the bleed but still no crop marks. This is all in CS3 but was the same when I had CS2.

I always prefer to use trim marks (crop marks as opposed to crop area) and fit the artboard to them.
I'm with you, Steve. I did it that way for years mainly because it left no room for ambiguity (and because that's what made sense to those of us who used to paste layout elements down on artboards with rubber cement).
Unfortunately, over the last few versions, Adobe seems to have been changing the paradigm on us. I've seen an attempt to bring Illustrator in line with the DTP way of doing things -- Quark, Pagemaker, and InDesign have always equated artboard size with document trim size. The change in Illustrator terminology (no more reference to "trim marks"), I think, was the first clue that this was happening.
In th U.S., more and more magazines (even as their numbers dwindle) are now accepting print ad layouts done in Illustrator (whereas they used to insist they be done exclusively in QuarkXpress). Those that do, however, are insisting that the document (artboard) size correspond to their trim size.
OK, fine. But I don't have to like it.

Won't print one color

My HP printer Officejet Pro 8600 won't print Magenta color.. I have replaced two different cartritges but none worked. Yellow, blue and black works fine.. The picture/text would print but just without red tones.
All I get is greenish colors...
What can be done to fix it..??

HP c7180 - Won't print one color[ New ]
12-28-2010 04:50 PM
My C7180 displayed a message that the ink cartridge was out of date and immediately stopped printing which used Mageneta. I replaced the cartridge and it still won't print this color. All other print functions and features are fine. If a photo or print requires red, however, it prints as yellow. Print tests show a small single horizonal line where the mageneta should be. Additionally, I've run the "clean print head" command. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks.

CP1518ni on Win7 64 bit won't print unless "override out" is on

I get the "replace supplies" message and the printer won't print unless the "Override out" is turned on. I replaced the ink cartridges once, then got the "replace supplies" message within days. I've installed HPPDU which refers to CP1510 series PCL6. the diagnostic screen says everything is fine. I also downloaded the update 20100616. I noted that the "workaround" ToolboxFX doesn't work with Win 7.
What am I missing?  Must I continue printing under "override out" until all four ink cartridges run out completely, then trust that the printer will operate without the override on the future cartridges? Thanks for your help on this.

This question was solved.
View Solution.

1. Which supplies have you replaced?
     CB540A black, then a week later added the three colors when the supplies low message came back on the printer. (Primary use of the printer is black text; color used rarely.)
2. Does the product specify another supply low or out?
     I haven't been able to access a screen which specifies contents of the four cartridges. The orange light on the product flashes continuously, and won't print. the message simply says "replace supplies".
3. How long has this been going on?
     Problem started when the initial cartridges that came with the printer appeared to run out; about 2 months ago (worked fine for 12 months. The second set of cartridges(full HP cartridges from Office Depot) worked for two weeks or so,since then we've been using override.
4. How are you connected the the CP1518ni?
     through direct wire plug into the power strip.
5. Where are you getting the message, Printer or Computer?
    on the printer; we can't seem to access the screen that used to appear on the computer desktop that showed ink content.

8500A won't print since I replaced ink cartridges.

Hi. Ever since I replaced all the ink cartridges (with genuine HP parts) on my printer it won't print except very faintly in two of the colours, and not at all in the other two. I've cleaned the printheads, and tried to align the printheads. Aligning the printheads failed. Why would the printer suddently stop working after replacing the cartridges, and what else can I do to fix the problem? I found a page about replacing the printheads, but can't find any info any where about where to buy these parts or how much they cost. I tried to find a repair place near me but the search came up with no results. Any help you can provide would be appreciated.

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you cannot print with your HP Officejet Pro 8500A, on Windows 7, after replacing your Ink Cartridges. I am happy to help! Please, try the steps within this guide, Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP Officejet Pro 8500A e-All-in-One Printer Series.

Appleworks file won't print in Snow Leopard

I recently migrated apps and files from an older iMac to an iMac5,1 (late-2006 model). I use the same HP photosmart 7960 printer. When I send a file to print, one I have printed before with the old iMac, it won't print. I went onto HP's site to download a driver but during installation it says the setup assistant quit unexpectedly. I am trying to print files from Apple Works 6. I can print from Text Edit and from Mail,
Can you help? Thanks.

glaucous wrote:
Fred, I'm sorry, I mistyped about where I look for "get info" on a selected document. I do look under the File menu. It is grayed out as is "About Appleworks" and right clicking/ctrl click doesn't work.
For instance: I select (in Finder) an AW doc created in 2009. Right click doesn't work. File menu, About Appleworks grayed out. I double click to open it. Right clicking brings up usual editing menu. File menu visible but no "get info," About Appleworks says it's version AW 6.2.9. This doc doesn't preview and doesn't print. Then I change font and type size and save. This time it previews (content creator AppleWorks 6, creation date Jan. 10, 2011. AND it prints. I close it and select it again. Right click doesn't work, File menu and About Appleworks still grayed out and the "last opened" says 12/7/09.
glaucous, are you certain you are in Finder when you do this?
If you are in Finder, the Application menu (first to the right of the Apple menu) should be "Finder", and its first item should be "About Finder," not "About AppleWorks."
The only time you will see "About AppleWorks" in the Application menu is when you are 'in' AppleWorks.
It will be greyed when you have a dialogue box (for example, the Open dialogue, or the Save dialogue) open. Under this condition Hide AppleWorks and Hide Others will be the only active items in the Application menu. All items in the File menu will be greyed, as will be all items in Edit and Window menus. Help will show AppleWorks Help as an active item. And, as you note, right-clicking the file name or icon will have no effect (other than selecting the file), and double-clicking the file will open it (in the Open dialogue).
Regards,
Barry
