Unable to make photo prints!?

Help,
When I want to print a photo in iPhoto11, a message appears, that there should be at least one theme be installed, to enable printing. I don't get the "print page" after selecting "Print Photo" in the Archive menu. How do I select a print theme??

Look in your User/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If you find it there move it to the HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder and reboot. Then try iPhoto again. That may save you having to go thru the reinstallation.

  • Unable to print from a Mac using Maverick 10.9.2 on an Epson Photo printer with Photoshop CS4. Can you help?

    I am trying to print in Photoshop CS4 on an Epson Photo printer (3880) from my Mac. I just upgraded to Maverick 10.9.2 when the problem started. Can you help.

    I have the answer. It took quite a while but I know why the 3880 won't print from Photoshop 4 with Maverick. It is due to the Epson .icc page description files. The way to solve the problem is to make your own .icc. OK, so you don't know how to do it. This is what I did so now I get the quality prints I expect from an expensive printer.
    You need to go to www.datacolor.com/spyderprint and purchase the Spyderprint hardware and software. It comes as a package for $300 to $350 depending on if you get a sale. The software will print on the 3880 test sheets of color blocks. With the hardware reader you then read the colors on the test sheets printed. What this does is match the monitor image with the printer, ink and paper you used. It makes an .icc page description file for you to select instead of the Epson .icc file. When you print again select the new .icc file and also choose "Printer Manages Colors" instead of "Photoshop Manages Colors" I know this is usual but it works. When you are done you will be smiling too with your beautiful results.
    One other thing. If you want, it is optional, also purchase the Spider 4 Pro for $150. It calibrates your monitor and helps make excellent prints.
    I understand it is more money and you already probably have a good computer, expensive camera to go with the 3880 so spend the extra money so it all works together.
    I hope this helps.

    Can I make photo albums to get printed off like on iPhoto on the Mac? I only own an iPad.

    Photo books are only available in iPhoto on a Mac, not on the iPad.
    You can organize your photos into Journals on the iPad. If you have an iCloud account, you can publish your journal as a webpage and share a link to your journal with others. When you edit your journal, your changes automatically appear on your journal webpage.

  • Unable to make a DVD from a book I have made in I-photo 09

    Hi.
    I have just loaded i-life 09 and seem unable to make a dvd of books I have made in I-photo.
    This was a straight forward process with i-photo 08.
    It is as if it tries to pull one image only from the album.
    I generally make the book up, go to Share... click Send to I-dvd, and then it all loads up from there.
    I then create the finished dvd, of the book already made.
    This does not happen now.
    It tries to up load and comes up with preparing or sending to I dvd, but does nothing from that point, where it used to before.
    I can only think it is a glitch with i life 09.
    Is there a fix out there!!
    Thanks in advance.

    I can't answer your question, but maybe you can help me as you say it is easy to transfer an iphoto08 slideshow to idvd and burn it. I transferred the slide show OK and its name appeared on the idvd main page but when I selected it and burned it I got only a burn of the default first idvd page with the rotating theme and the name of my slideshow on it! The slideshow did look correct when I doubleclicked on it and it played in Preview. How do i get it to burn?

  • How to Edit a Photo to Make it Print Ready?

    I have Photoshop Elements 5 running under Windows XP.
    I have been editing photos for a while now for on-screen viewing, and I think I feel pretty comfortable with that.  But now I would like to edit some photos to make them ready for print.
    I am a little confused on the steps you should take to get the right document size and resolution.  I know you should have at least about 220 ppi for photos you want to print.  My Canon SD750 takes photos at 180 ppi with pixel dimensions of 3072 x 2304.  So if I wanted to say, edit the photo to have a document size of 5 x 7 or 7 x 5 with a ppi of 250, what are the steps I would need to take?  Also, do I need to be dealing with the pixel dimensions at all and/or resampling to make photos ready for print.
    Thanks,
    Lee

    Lee,
    For printing it is desirable to have a resolution of 240-300px/in, if possible.
    Image>resize>image size brings up a dialog where you can enter the document dimensions in inches.

  • Unable to center a print on 8/5 x 11 inch paper with Pixma Pro 100

    I've been using a Pixma Pro 100 for just 3 weeks.  No matter what I do or try, prints on 8.5 by 11 inch paper using the manual feed tray are not centered.  In portrait orientation, the margin on the leading edge short edge is slightly less no matter what size the image.  For example, if the leading edge margin is 1/4 inch, the opposite margin is 3/8 inch.  If the leading edge is 7/8 inch, the opposite margin is 1 inch dead.  The long side margins are equal.  I'm using Photoshop Elements 9.0.  I've tried printing out of the edit space, where "center print" is an option, but I realize now that this just centers the image in the window representing the print, that it does not center the image on the page.  I have not notice this problem with smaller size paper, such as 4 x 6.  Any suggestions?  I have not tried loading the paper in the internal or "rear" tray because I thought the paper path with the manual feed would be straighter.  Besides, I'd like to be able to use the manual feed with even larger paper and get centered prints.
    P.S.  I just tried selecting "borderless" print in PSE 9 with a custom image size smaller than the paper, e.g. 7 x 9.8 inches, and crop to fit.  Just looking at the preview, this seems to have resulted in equal margins left and right, top and bottom (the L-R margins are different than the T-B margins of course).  I was unable to make any of the necessary adjustments in Canon Print Studio Pro - I could not figure out how to unlink the height and width of the image.

    "...  that is a remarkably unhelpful and condescending response."
    Condescending or not, however, it is still most likely PSE that accomplishs this task.  I don't use PSE anymore since I switched to Lightroom.  Hence the suggestion to find a PSE forum.
    But it is the software that let's you move or put the photos where you want them to print.
    A PSE forum may be able to show you how to do this.  Example below, if I want two 5x7s in oppoiste corners, it is done easily in LR.
    If I wanted one photo centered it is a simple click to get the adjustment "squares" and move the photo.  (Bottom picture)
    BTW, I am not worried.

  • After mavericks upgrade unable to connect to printer

    After mavericks upgrade on one of my two 2013 iMac, when I try to print anything on my network printer and plotter I always obtain this message: "unable to connect to printer" than printer pause and got "pronto per la stampa" (ready to print in italian).
    I have a EPSON STYLUS PHOTO 1290 A3 color inkjet printer and an HP designjet 500 plus 24 plotter connected to a Windows XP machine under a Windows XP network.

    THis helped me. Had to share this!
    Go to this link: http://macs.about.com/od/printersharing/ss/Printer-Sharing-Share-Your-Windows-7- Printer-With-Your-Mac_5.htm
    Things to Keep in mind and setup first if your Server which your printer is connected to is a Mac Desktop like mine, otherwise the above instructions will not work:
    1) Make sure to have firewall set either to "Off", but if "On" then make sure set to allow SMB, Printer Share, and other devices. Thats a Biggie! (I suggest you Test first that you're indeed able to connect first to your Mac desktop server using the smb://YourServersFileSharingAddess.local, or cifs://YourServersFileSharingAddess.local. If you're not able to connect to your servers hard drive from your Laptop, then the printer setup will not work! So resolve this first and make sure you can connect using the mentioned protocols.
    2) When you see that you're able to connect, then go to your printer setup and follow the above links suggestion. Just make sure that when you enter the ip address which it suggest, that its the same ip or location name of your mac server which your trying to connect to, ie... (YourServersFileSharingAddess.local/NameOfPrinterConnectedToServer). Keep in mind that it is case sensitive and that if you have spaced in the name of the printer, its better and easier to just rename it and cut it down to just one name...no spaces! But if you must have the spaces, then use %20 to fill those spaces, ie... "My Printer name" change to "My%20Printer%20name".
    Then watch the magic!

  • Unable to load HP printer driver-Error message!

    Hi,
    Just wondering if anyone can be of any assistance.
    I recently purchased a HP Photosmart 2575 all-in-one printer and installed the necessary software, which said it was successfully installed. However, whenever I boot up the G3 I keep getting the following message 'Unable to load the printer drive, open the applications Get Info dialog and increase the preferred memory size. If this does not help try quitting all other applications or reinstalling the printer software.'
    After clicking ok on this message about four times the message goes and I am able to print fine. Just wondering why this is happening. I have increased the memory allocation and also turnt on the virtual memory to see if this makes any difference, but all to no avail. I have also uninstalled and then reinstalled the software to see if this makes a difference, but that didn't help either.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance
    PS: The printer is connected via ethernet on my router to enable me to print from another machine

    Use Techtool Lite or Trash*Desktop (TD may delete Finder comments )to rebuild your desktop w/extensions off. Does a better job than manually & you avoid all the finger gymnatics. You just have to hold down the shift key to shut off extensions.
    Restart to turn the extensions back on again.
    If you want to rebuild manually, see KB article http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=10182 Rebuilding Desktop File and Icon Recovery.

  • Mac pro / Laserjet 4 / Os 10.6 - how do I make the printer work?

    Hi,
    I have a 2008 Mac Pro running 10.6.8 and an ancient yet still thriving HP Laserjet 4 that I was  using over an ethernet/Jetdirect connection with my G5 for years - how do I get them to talk to each other?
    I'm running the printer connection through a router, but the Mac Pro has 2 ethernet ports so I guess I can plug the printer in directly if that's simpler.  The IP of the printer is 192.168.5.40 and I've tried setting it up with the "Add a printer" dialogue but can't get it to work.
    I've read through a lot of posts and looked at a lot of Websites but I can't find step by step instructions for getting the computer to see the printer.  I have Gutenprint drivers installed if that helps.
    And - just to keep the discussiion concise:
    - I know that there are better newer printers that I could buy for cheap, but that isn't going to happen right now.
    - I know that 10.6 isn't the most recent OS
    I'm hopipng for truly step-by-step instructions that even I can understand.
    Thanks!

    So maybe it's a problem with the printer's IP?
    Yes. As far as your network is concerned, the printer is just not there.
    You will not be able to progress until you assign it an IP address accessible to your LAN. Apparently it needs to be 192.168.1.x (a 1 in the place that is now a 5), where x = a large enough number that is not likely for router to assign to other equipment.
    Your challenge is to assign the printer that IP address. Let's use the address 192.168.1.150.
    HP's support pages for that printer and its Jetdirect card say, rather unhelpfully:
    Using the front panel of printer
    The IP address may also be changed using the front panel of the HP Jetdirect device. This method of front panel configuration varies greatly depending on the model of HP printer that is being used (consult the User's Guide for the front panel instructions for a particular printer). Click here to go to the HP Web site. Use the Search and search for Front Control Panel TCP/IP Configuration .
    I did that and it didn't really get me anywhere, since there seem to be few if any references to the non- "MP" or "V" etc. variants of the original LaserJet 4. So, try to find a setting in the printer's front panel that bears any resemblance to "network settings" or "IP address".
    If you are able to navigate its front panel to a place where you can enter the IP address 192.168.1.150 be sure to press GO or ENTER or ONLINE or whatever you think might make the setting "stick" after you enter those digits. Print the same test page you did before, and ensure its IP address has really been changed. Then, then try the ping command again, with its new IP address:
    ping 192.168.1.150
    If you are unable to determine a way to use the printer's front panel to change its IP address, you should be able to use Terminal to set it. This will get a bit cumbersome so use it only if you are unable to change the printer's IP address some other way:
    Terminal is a program in your Mac's Utilities folder.
    Locate Terminal and open it. At the command prompt, type the following exactly as written (copy and paste the following to avoid errors):
    sudo arp -s 192.168.1.150 00:60:b0:91:21:e7
    ... and press Return. You will get a warning of impending disaster should you make a mistake, and requesting your Mac's Administrator password to proceed. Type your password (which will not appear as you type it) and press Return. Unless something went wrong the command prompt should immediately reappear as if nothing happened.
    Next try the ping command again:
    ping 192.168.1.150
    You should receive ping responses from the printer as in my earlier example.
    If you do, then congratulations because you have made it all the way to Step 1
    You still have to add the printer in System Preferences > Print & Fax, using this new IP address, and make sure the Gutenprint driver works.
    Edit: The reason your printer works with your old G5 running Tiger is that it is using AppleTalk for communication. AppleTalk doesn't exist in Snow Leopard. This is the reason you must use IP for communication on your Mac Pro. Your old G5 should continue to work with the printer as it always has.
    another Edit: HP's support page alleges that the Terminal command arp above will only work with JetDirect firmware versions x.08.03 and later only. Yours appears to be A.05.05, so the front panel option may be all there is. If that does not work I have one more idea but it's an even bigger pain.

  • Unable to access HP printer to router

    I have a Macintosh running 10.8. HP officejet 4500 G510g-m non wireless printer. Belkin N600 wireless router with USB port and 4 ethernet ports
    When I plug the printer in via the USB port, Belkin software sees the printer but is unable to connect. I have firewall turned off. I can connect a USB external HD to the router and it sees it.
    I've contacted Belkin and was told the issue is with the printer. 
    I have mulitple PCs, iPhone, iPad and would like to make the printer available to all via the router.
    I am not sure what to try next or should I just buy a wireless printer?
    Thank you.

    Why don't you plug the printer into the router with an Ethernet cable?
    You still may have problems as Belkin does not support (or support properly) Bonjour - the discovery protocol that allows your Mac to find your printer.
    You may be better off buying a better router like Linksys, Netgear or Apple Airport.

  • Unable to print/scan- unable to communicate with printer message

    I am unable to print due to a unable to communicate with printer error messaege. I was previously able to print just fine( a few hours a go) the IP addy has not change. The printer is connected to the network and able to download updates etc just fine. The printer is connected  but  they just wont recognise each other. Print and scan doctor was a complete waste of time, it showed the printer insatlled but then could not connect. Can someone please help getting so very frustrated with these products. Printer is the 6700 All in one series and laptop is Hp Envy.

    Hello @leilee  , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I see you're experiencing connectivity issues.  I would like to help!
    I would first recommend a power reset.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    I would then recommend utilizing this document on Wireless printing center Troubleshooting Issues.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • HP 7520 All in One "Unable to Communicate with Printer" msg

    We have a HP all in one Photosmart 7520 printer- it is USB connected to a mac (OS Snow Leopard I believe).  This was the original set up.  When I moved back here I was able to set up a wireless network with the mac as the host computer (connecting the modem to a Linksys router).  I was able to set up my windows 7 PC to this network and to the printer with no problems and was able to print to the printer for months.  Now I am getting this error "Unable to communicate with Printer"  and says it is unable to to be completed because the printer is unavailable or not connected.
    The printer IS connected and on.  My PC can see the printer listed in the control panel (I in fact uninstalled and reinstalled to see if that would fix the problem- it didn't).  The only thing that has changed since I originally set this up was that I added my second PC (Windows XP) to the network but I don't think that's the cause of my print job requests failing to print.
    I do know that the modem itself has been reset a couple of times due to the cable deciding to drop out a couple of times.  Could this be the reason why?
    What else can I look at to try to get my PC to communicate fully with the printer.  I've tried printing from googlemaps as well as a short notepad file.
    Thanks!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Let’s try this.
    1. Verify in the printer that 'Auto Off' is disabled.  Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) by going to the  
        printers IP address in your browser, Settings Tab/Auto Off.  Or use the Printer Assistant, Printer Home
        Page (EWS).
    2. Set a static IP in the printer outside the DHCP range of the router. 
    In the router:
    3. Use a fixed wireless channel like 1,6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest. 
    4. Set router to 20Mhz only, or 145Mbps depending on router. 
    5. Always use WPA2-AES (Personal) encryption, but you can try ‘mixed’ mode. 
    6. For the routers security, disable WPS and never use it and disable UPnP so nobody can hack your
        system (if you want to know why, search the web). 
    7. If you have a dual band router (2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz bands), make sure the SSID’s are NOT the same,
        they must be different for all bands, even for any Guest networks. 
    8. Save all settings.  Power off both, wait 5 mins.  Power on router wait 3 mins. 
    9. Power on printer and verify it reconnects to router. 
    Windows 7/8/8.1   Is Network Discovery on or off?
    Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network and Sharing Center\Advanced sharing settings.
    Under Home or Work (current profile) \ Network Discovery.
    Select "Turn on network discovery" and save changes.
    Now try.

  • HP Photosmart 7525 - Unable to Communicate with Printer

    I set up my printer through the driver provided in the packaging. Everything seemed to be going fine until I try printing anything wirelessly from my computer. The printer claims that it is connected to my internet connection and everything has been configured, but when I try to print anything it says Unable to Communicate with Printer. I have searched through countless troubleshooting forums and cannot find a solution that works, please help!

    Hi Star-A-Star,
    Thanks for providing that information.
    Since the printer is working on the one computer the printer is on the network.
    For the other computer follow these steps:
    Restart the computer and router.
    Make sure the computer is connected to the proper network.
    Left click the wireless icon on the taskbar, it shows the network name that you are connected to.
    Find out what the IP address is for the computer and the printer.
    The first 3 sets of numbers have to match for the printer to get connected to the same network.
    Go to start, run, (might have to type run in search window) type cmd, type in ipconfig.
    Check the IP address.
    Now check the IP address for the printer.
    Do the first 3 sets of numbers match?
    Try to access the printer's IP address again through Internet Explorer.
    Then run the add printer wizard on the computer.
    Go to start, devices and printers.
    Open the add printer wizard.
    Select local printer and uncheck automatic detect.
    Next.
    Select use the following port, select create new port, choose HP standard TCP/IP,
    add TCP wizard comes up, next  type in the IP address for the printer and continue the wizard.
    Make sure the printer is online.
    Try printing a document.
    Let me know the results.
