Unable to print finder window

Back in the days of MACOS 7, 8 and 9.0 operating systems, one could print any finder window (dailogue box) by simply holding down the "apple" key and hitting "p".
How can I print finder windows with Mac OSX? I want to make lists of what is in certain folders.
Thanks.

Not like it used to be, but still possible.
1) Drag the folder to any printer icon (Printer Setup, a Desktop printer or a printer in the Printer Setup list, for example)
2) Get the free utility Print Window (www.versiontracker.com)
3) Drag the folder to the free Text Wrangler for a better hierarchical view, then print.

Unable to print to Windows Queue for HP p1606

So we have a windows 2003 server which has a printer queue for a HP p1606n.
We can print direct DNS to the printer however not to the print queue. The print queue and windows machines attached to the queue can print fine.
The jobs get to the queue and then disappear into the ether.
What we've tried:
Generic PS and PCL driver on the queue and printing computer
Model Specific driver on both.
Varying the model specific driver and the generics on each.
trying the foo2 driver specific for the 1606.
All do the same thing which is show the authentication window for the job and then we see it in the local machine queue and the nothing at the printer.
We are stumped at this point.
Any help appreciated.

Hi @moports,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that you are unable to print with your HP Photosmart 5520, on Windows 7 using a wireless connection. I am happy to help with your printing!
Please see the following guides:
'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the Printer Does Not Print: Windows 7.
Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.
Also I would recommend the HP Wireless printing center, website. You want to make sure the router is broadcasting at 2.4 ghz not 5 ghz.
This post, Incoming and Outgoing Printer Ports, by @VisionAiry. Will tell you which ports need to be open not closed on the router.
Hope this information helps, and have a great day!

Unable to Print in Windows with Vmware Fusion HP LaserJet 1006

Prints fine on the Mac with 10.6.1 and HP driver updates.
Printer worked flawlessly with Leopard 10.5.8
Will not print in windows. Open the print queue and it says it is printing (it isn't), sometimes the message is that it is waiting for the printer to become available, (printer is available).
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Alan

The print job gets sent to the printer, but it wont print. It says waiting for printer to become available. When this happens I am also unable to print from the Mac side and have to restart the computer to be able to print from the MacBook. Simply turning off the printer and then turning it on doesn't help.

Mail - Printing Finder Window/List of "Incoming & Saved Mail - On My Mac"

In Mail, is it possible to print the finder window list captioned “Incoming & Saved Mail - On My Mac” and if so, how? (I couldn’t figure out how to do this with PrintFinder or Print Window.) Thank you!

Use Address Book, also called Contacts in later versions of OS X:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2486
Mail pulls its email addresses from that application. See also:

Unable to open Finder window from Safari download list

I have just noticed today that I cannot click the magnifying glass in the download list in Safari to open the Finder window with the location of the download.
I have tried deleting the PLIST file as well as reinstall Safari - still can't get it to work.
Anyone have some ideas?

If you are referring to the com.apple.Safari.plist try something different.
Quit Safari.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy/paste: ~/Library/Safari
Click Go then move the Downloads.plist file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari to test.

In that Count the itab using describe table.
Add condition if count EQ Sy-tabix.

How to Print Finder Window

This has perplexed me for some time but I'm just getting 'round to asking ...
I miss the "Print Window" function of OS9. How does one go about doing that these days ... other than performing a screen capture?
"Print Window" has great usefulness without having to deal with a file to delete (as screen capture does).
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for that.
The limitation is that the resulting PDF shows only the top folders in the hierarchy ... Even if I expand all the folders in the window, their contents don't show up in the PDF file list.
I was hoping to print a list of the files archived on an external hard drive that's being retired so that I could store the list with the physical drive.
Why did Apple take the 'print window' ability away from us? It was SO useful!!

HP Officejet Pro 8610 - Unable to print windows 8.1

Hi ,
I've recently purchased HP Officejet Pro 8610 and unable to print from windows.
I am running 64bit Windows 8.1
I can print from Web via email
I can print using the HP AiO Remote app in windows. This doesnt have full functionality and is also inconvenient if I am working on documents and I want to print.
I have tried the following:
- Uninstalling and reinstalling from CD provided with printer
- Using the HP printer troubleshooter assistant, no success
- Downloading the software direct from HP website
- Updating the firmware using OJP8610_R1416A.exe
-Changing the port to the network port (in this case it is 192.168.0.200, it responds to a ping, also set the printer to have a static ip)
This is the error message that i get when i try to print a test page when i choose printer properties in the control panel
"test page failed to print. would you like to view the printer troubleshooter for assistance"
I have trawlled through other member's issues and i cant seem to find a fix for myself
Please help

Cannot print from Windows XP in Boot Camp

I rarely boot into Windows using Boot Camp. Usually will use Windows as a VM with VMware Fusion.
Now I am unable to print when in Windows/Boot Camp!
Yes, I can print just fine in Mac & in Windows as a VM.
My Boot Camp installation of WinXP is the same one I use as a VM.
I wonder if I changed some printer setting long ago & forgot. I am fairly certain I used to be able to print from Windows/Boot Camp.
From: Windows XP/Control Panel/Printers & Faxes/My printer/properties/Ports
The last port/box in the list is checked, “TPVM: ThinPrint Print Port for VM”
I thought this may be incorrect for when I am in Windows using Boot Camp so tried changing it to LPT1 & then LPT2 & LPT3 & no real help. However, when using
TPVM: ThinPrint Print Port for VM, When I attempt to print, nothing happens & no print job appears in the print queue. (See what’s printing) If I change the port to LPT1,2 or 3, than the job DOES appear & under status says “error.”
I think I need to change some setting when I boot into Windows via Boot Camp vs. Start Windows as a VM.
What is the problem?
Thanks!

Thanks but, no help.
I did set up printer sharing. Even though I only have one computer I still share the printer between the Mac & WIndows on the Mac in both VM & BC.
On Mac: System Preferences/Print & Fax, I do have the box checked “Share this printer on the network.” Under Sharing Preferences I have checked; Printer sharing, Scanner sharing & file sharing. Users: Everyone Can Print.
If I remember correctly, b4 I had set up printer sharing, I was unable to print from Windows as VM. It would send the print job over to the Mac side & would not print. Then I used to go into the sys tray on Windows & change something re the printer (I forget what) but essentially telling Windows to use this printer or activate it. Then when finished -- If I forget to undo that change, it would not print on the Mac side. Setting the printer to share fixed that so, I can easily print Mac or Windows VM. Again, I very rarely boot into Windows/BC but I would like to be able to print when I do.
It may be similar to use of the optical drive for DVDs/CDs. If I am in Windows/VM The Drive doesn't work until I go into some menu (Virtual Machine?) & enable the drive & then I must disable it to get it back working for Mac.
I am going to try DVD & CD sharing & see if that fixes it so I can use the drive in both Mac & Windows VM w/o having to bother to change settings back & forth, Then I will see if doing that somehow breaks the DVD/CD drive for Windows/BC.
Maybe I need to uncheck printer sharing in order for the printer to once again work on Windows/BC?
Or maybe since I enabled printer sharing, I must somehow tell my Mac or tell Windows that all 3 can share; Mac, Windows/VM & Windows BC? I’m sure if I had 3 different computers I would need to somehow tell the system which computers are authorized to use my Network printer. Maybe since Windows BC is never online/running at the same time as the Mac, it was not recognized?

How do you PRINT a Finder window list view?

Hello all.
I think a long time ago in OS9, we can open a new (Finder) Window, switch to 'List' view and print the window, so that we can see all the nested folders, etc.
Can we/How do we do this in OS X? Can't seem to find a Print command...
Thanks and cheers

Press the Shift, Command, and 4 keys, followed by the spacebar, click in the window, open the png on the desktop, and print that.

Unable to print to Canon iR-Adv C5045 from MacBook Pro that is connected to Windows computer and shared on the network

I am unable to print to a Canon iR-Adv C5045 from a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.9.4) that is connected to Windows NT computer and shared on the company network. I am connected to the network by ethernet.
I was able to add the printer manually by going to Advanced, Windows printer via spoolss, smb://computer name/printer name and used the Canon iR-ADV C5045/5051 driver.
When I print it appears to be printing but nothing comes out. I checked the completed jobs from the Print Queue and the job is listed. Checked the print log on the printer and it isn't listed. Is there a different driver I should be using for this configuration?

You may not have a choice as to what driver you can use. If the ADV C5045 only has the default UFR2 printer kit, then you will have to use the UFR2 driver - which is what you are using now. If you can access the copier, press the Counter Check button on the control panel. Then on the display you will see an entry labelled Check Device Configuration. Select this and scroll down through the pages. You are looking for an entry called PS. If you see it then the Canon does have the optional Postscript printer kit enabled and this will let you use an alternate driver. One suggestion would be to create the printer again using the same setting that you have done already but this time select the Generic Postscript driver included with the OS rather than use the Canon driver. This will help to determine if the driver is the cause.
If there is no PS option you will have to use the UFR2 driver and this could be the problem, as the Canon drivers don't always work well on a Mac via a Windows share. As a test, are you able to create a print queue directly to the Canon rather than via the Windows share? If you can, then this will let you check if the driver currently installed will work, as there can be settings on the copier that can block/stop you from printing. Assuming that you can print to the Canon with a direct connection from the Mac, then we can work on getting the printing via the shared queue. But if it doesn't print directly from the Mac, then it confirms that it may not be the server and more to do with the copier.
