Unable to Print pages08 with pictures to color printer

I am not able to print color pages08 documents containing photographs to my HP 4650 color Laser. I am not able to figure this out. The HP 4650 Color Laser has 128 MB's Ram and never gives me a problem with 20-25MB doc's or 50-60MB color photo files.
The pages file I can not print is a mere 7.6 MB's
Here's the steps I've taken in my investigation: resaved & remamed the file, resaved & renamed on a different drive w/200 GB's free space. Tossed out my pages08 preferences & restarted (Preferences>com.apple.iwork.Pages.plist), and repaired my colorSnyc profiles. After each/all of these I have no luck printing to my HP 4650 color Laser.
Next I created a 3.8MB pages08 test document with 4 pictures dropped into it from iPhoto6. This test file with 4 pictures is 3.7Mb's. Here's my consistent results
I can print this document
- directly from pages08 on my HP 4200 B&W Laser Printer (256MB ram)
- from Preview as a "reduced file" size pdf (version 5 or lower)
I can not print this document to my HP 4650 color Printer
- directly from pages - printer says "20 insufficient memory"
- directly from Preview - printer says "20 insufficient memory
Next, I exported from iphoto6 the same 4 pictures (in original dimensions) to Photoshop & InDesign.
I can print this test document on my HP 4650 color
- directly from Photoshop (.psd file size is 27.8MB)
- directly from Indesign (.indd file size is 2.2MB)
Next, I used the "Template Choose">"Extreme"
- OK printing template (as is) directly to HP color before & after saving
- NO printing after adding 4 different pics using iphoto6
- NO printing after adding 3 different pics using iphoto6
- NO printing after adding 2 different pics using iphoto6
- NO printing after adding 1 different pics using iphoto6
What's up?, there seems to be some hidden printing preference here that is limiting me to adding anything to a pages document, or pages is not handling the information properly.
Any more ideas I can follow? I've never experiences an insufficient memory issues in any other applications with any other documents other applications.

I've replaced the HP printer driver and had no change, my pages08 documents with picture(s) added will still not print.
I can print the pages08 templates as they exist, but when I add or replace even one picture (using iPhoto) the document will not print to my HP Color printer yet will print on my HP B&W printer.
Additionally, I can add 10-20 more pictures and the B&W printer continues to print perfectly. HP claims this is an application program and not the trouble of their printer. I have to agree since only pages document with pictures is my culprit, every program and every massive size document I want to print
There seems as if an invisible limit exists that I surpass when I add a picture. Are there any preferences or settings I've missed, a cache I should clear?
Aside from upgrading to pages09, I hope you can assist with some helpful remedies, thank you.

My photos are not printing right with adobe manages color but works when i use printer manages color. never had any issues untill a week ago.

my photos are not printing right with adobe manages color but works when i use printer manages color. never had any issues untill a week ago.

We use CS6, yes we calibrate using x-rite. I have always had adobe manage colors when printing. This problem just occurred, all my settings are the same as they have been for years. The only thing we did lately is do an update to CS6. We thought it might be our printer but when we use the printer manages color it works fine, The problem with adobe manages color is it is not blending the light highlights like on top of the cheeks with the colors around the cheeks and its putting a faint red between the two it just does not have a smooth transition. I printed a photo that I had printed 4 months ago with no issue, and this time it had the issue that I am dealing with now. Somehow the photo shop manages color is not getting the right info to my printer.
I set paper type

How can I set the default print settings of my document as color. I want the default print setting to be color when someone opens a document. similar to duplex print preset is there a color print preset?

Hi,
Try saving your settings as a Preset by clicking the Preset drop down and then select Save Current Settings as a Preset.
Next try changing the settings by selecting the saved preset.
That allow saving the settings for a specific printer, I assume it may also allow selecting these settings for another printer.

Separator page prints out with wrong name when printing from Outlook 2010

Working with Windows 7 Enterprise, Outlook 2010. We've set up our desk printers to print a separator page with the user's name, as several people use the same printers in our building. Printing from IE, Word, etc. all work fine, and it'll print
out the correct username on the separator page.
When anyone attempts to print an Outlook email, it instead prints out my username. We've found that it doesn't happen if they click on the "quick print" button, but it happens every time if they do "file > Print" or Ctrl+P.

Hi
As per the information and details provided by you that separator page prints out with wrong name when printing from Outlook 2010, please follow these steps: -
To create a custom separator page file, use a text editor such as
Notepad. On the very first line, type one single character, and then press
Enter. The character on this line defines the character used as an escape character. For example, the following list assumes that this character is the at sign (@).
Enter the escape codes for the functions you want, and then save the file with an .sep extension in the Windows System32 subfolder.
In the Print Manager, select the printer that you want to use the separator page file with, and then click
Choose Properties on the Printer menu.
Click
Details, specify the name of the desired separator page file in the
Separator File box, and then click OK.
Note:
Put the custom separator page file in one of the following locations:
In the %Windir%System32 folder.
In a folder whose path contains a SepFiles folder. For example:
Drive:\Folder\SepFiles\Subfolder
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

Print Setup says use Adobe Color Printer with No Color Management even though I have my .icc printer profile selected

I have a ColorMunki Photo and a Canon Pixma Pro 100 that I have been using on my Mac with Photoshop CC. No issues. I must have changed something because now when I go to print, a popup says "Please use Adobe Color Printer Utility if you need to print with No Color Management". It is telling me that my I am trying to print without color management and this method of printing isn't supported. So, I reprofiled my monitor and printer and have brand new .icc profiles and it is still doing the same thing. Can someone tell me the exact things that need to be changed in Photoshop in order to use my .icc profile for color managed printing? I have no idea what I have changed. If I change to a different profile that message doesn't pop up. My document profile says that it is the same as the printer profile I am trying to print from. Does the document profile need to be set to my monitor .icc profile or the printer .icc profile that I want to print from? Any help would be appreciated! It is driving me crazy!

Please read these very recent thread, as it applies to you in full:

Smart form printing issue with LOCL and SAP printer

Hi,
The issues are as follows:
1. the top portion of the Invoice and PO does not print when using the SAP printer (works when using LOCL)
2. the shaded areas of the Order Confirmation and Invoice are black when printing to a SAP printer (works when using LOCL)
In an attempt to correct the printing issue is was suggested that we change the SAP printer device type from HPLJ4 to POST2. This did address the problem where the shaded areas were black but then we received reports that other reports printed "garbage". Its possible that using POST2 device type causes issues when printing to HP compatible printers.
Apparently all the testing was done using the SAP printer LOCL and not the SAP printer name and SAP spool system. LOCL uses the SAP GUI and Windows system to produce the output. Our production users at the plant site and Toledo are using SAP defined printers with the device type of HPLJ4. HPLJ4 is our standard here as OC for our printer definitions and we have HP compatible printers installed in our Toledo location and all of our remote sites. We need to be able to correctly print the Invoices, Purchase Orders, Sales Order Confirmations on our SAP printers.
What can be done to the reports to allow them to print on our HPLJ4?
Thanks, Prathap

Hi Prathap,
Check the background shading of the windows of the Smartform where you get the black boxes. If it is set something like this:
   Color: White
   Saturation: 100%
this can be the problem.
I know it is strange but some black and white printers cannot handle this setting. They only know one color black so the ignore the color setting and just take the saturation 100% setting.
The reason it works with local and device type SAPWIN is that the print data is created in Windows and sent to the printer as graphic.
Please change the shading for window MAIN -> tab 'Output Options' to:
   Color: Black
   Saturation: 0%
and this should resolve the problem.
Then create a new spool and check if the problem is resolved. See SAP Note #400050.
Regards,
Aidan

Adding Print Button With Java Script to Print of Different Pages Differently

Hi,
I am in the process of making a form and most of it is done and now I want to be able to print off two of the pages but to different printers, I have one that needs to be printed off on a regular A4 printer and another that needs to go to a label printer. I have both of the names for the printers and I have tried something but it just doesnt do anything at all (this is suggested by adobe I think?)
var pp = this.getPRintParam();
var printamount = this.getValue("Quantity_Boxes");
pp.printerName = "Zebra Technologies ZTC GK420t";
pp.firstPage = 3;
pp.lastPage = 3;
pp.NumCopies = 2*printamount;
this.print();
I tried it without the first and last page and nothing happens, I am useing a shared printer which works when I do cmd + P which the full printer name is Zebra Technologies ZTC GK420t @ User's iMac. (I have also tried putting the full name in aswell)
This is just to test one page so far but is there any way that one button will be able to print off 2 different pages to 2 different printers?
If someone knows how this would be a great help!
Thanks,
Bruce

Thanks for that, I have it working now but it shows the dialog box with no settings changed should i use:
pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.automatic ?
Thanks,
Bruce
EDIT:
It printed but only the first page but it printed on the right amount quantity was 2*3 wich was the result of the Quantity_Box value
I want it to print page 3 through the Zebra Printer and have page 2 printed to a different printer, is this possible through one button?

Printer driver will not allow color printing

I have a new Windows 7-64 bit OS on my new computert, and an HP CP1518ni (1500 series) color laserjet printer that has worked fine under Vista (32 bit) previously.
I went to the driver support site, since my installation disk didn't enable Windows 7, and got the universal UPD PCL6 driver, as indicated, and downloaded it (upd-pcl6-x64-5.4.0.11744.exe) and ran it.
It prints just fine in B&W, not in color. When I go to printer preferences it just says "color - no" and there I'm stuck.
Can anyone help? I can't use a B&W printer for all my work, so I can't switch to this better computer yet.
RDF78

to KB123:
did you remember setting your driver to only print in grayscale? since there is an option to do that on the drivers installed on your computer.
If you're not sure, try to go to your printer icon under Printers and Faxes (for windows XP) or PRINTERS (for Vista and 7)
Right click the printer icon and go to printing preferences. Under FEATURE tab, see if there is a check mark on the print in grayscale (its somewhere almost at the bottom of the screen)
Or else, try to uninstall the drivers of your printer and re.install.

Resolution problem when printing JPanel with picture on bg

Hellow!
I have some problems with printing JPanel component. I have a picture drawn on the background of the JPanel and several buttons on it. The whole JPanel is about 1600x800px. When i print whole the component with the help of PDF virtual printer, component is printed larger than A4 list. It is strange for me because print resolution is 600 dpi, so whole component must be a rectangle with the size about 2.5x1.5 inches. When I scale the graphics before painting component to fit image to page (i mean ... {color:#ff0000}g2d.scale(sc,sc); panel.paintAll(g2d);{color} ...), the picture's quality becomes very bad.
I understod it so: I draw the component on the paper in screen resolution, then I decrease image size, so quality also decreases.
My question is: how to draw on the graphics of printing paper the component in printers resolution (600dpi), but not in screen resolution.

Hi there,
Could you provide the community with a little more information to help narrow troubleshooting? What operating system?

Printing issues with Aperture 3 - color management

I just made three prints of the same images, two with Aperture 3 that turned out very dark and off color, almost as it they were printed without color management or double profiles. I then printed the third by exporting the image to CS4 and printing with the same settings (rendering intend, printer settings and custom printer profile) and that print looks fine. Has anyone else run into similar problems with A#? I did not have this issue with Aperture 2.
Thanks,
Message was edited by: pcalvin

I print on an Epson 2880 with Lyson inks and custom profiles. In Aperture 2 it worked perfectly, with exactly the same settings as for printing Photoshop - using the laboratory prescribed settings:perceptual and no black point compensation in Photoshop, and Adobe RGB Gamma 2.2 in the Print settings.
Using the same profile and settings with Aperture 3, the colours are way, way off - exactly as described.
I then tried with Aperture 3 turning off the Adobe RGB setting, so there was no colour space adjustment in the Print setting. This gave a slightly better result, but rather dead and slightly blue.
I ran some tests with the GretagMacbeth colour chart used in preparing the profiles, which confirmed the above but also shows a lack of sharpness when printing from Aperture 3, and a blue border on three sides of the image - even though the border was set to 0.00. I have checked the printer head adjustments and run the test chart through Photoshop again to verify these are Aperture 3 artefacts.
Unless this is resolved, it renders Aperture completely useless! (I have tried reinstalling printer drivers, to no effect).

PSE 7.0 and print layout with picture package

I was used to PSE 2.0 where you could have your own print layouts sitting in a *.txt file. All you need was to make this txt file and specify in it:
the unit (inch or cm) to use
the width and height of the print area
and for each image the coordinates of the leftupper corner and the width and height of that image.
Is there a anything like it in PSE 7.0?
All I can find is printing a picturepackage and some "hardcoded" lay outs.
I like to make my own layouts.
How to do this.

Yes I did restart PSE7.
but that did not help
I also tried to remove all the present llayout-text files except my own, then there was NOTHING to chose from!
So her is one of the layout text file that I use with PSE2 and it is working, when I select paper size A4
C 21 21
A4 (3) 10.5 10.5 cm
0 0 10.5 10.5
10.5 5.2 10.5 10.5
0 10.5 10.5 10.5
That txt file did not show in the dropdown select layout,(setting paper size A4 or Letter)
I tried the following txt file, setting papersize Letter
with the same result
I 8.5 11.0
Letter (3) 10.5x10.5 cm
0 0 4.1 4.1
4.1 2.0 4.1 4.1
0 4.1 4.1 4.1
Since there are no (error) messages I do not understand the criteria to meet for showing this layout in the select dropdown list.

Unable to connect EA4500 with HP 1525NW wireless printer

I recently switched from an old linksys router to a new EA4500. Before I had no trouble connecting my wireless HP printer using the WPS setup. However with the new EA4500, I tried multiple times without success.
Here is a solution I found online. It works. I had to use the original installation disks that came with the printer to reinstall the software and manually - using a USB - connected my printer to my wireless network.
Method three: Standard connection using a USB cable
If your wireless router does not support WiFi-Protected Setup (WPS), you can use this method to set up the product on a wireless network. Using a USB cable to transfer settings makes setting up a wireless connection easier. After the setup is complete, disconnect the USB cable.
Insert the software CD into the CD drive.
Follow the on-screen instructions. When prompted, select the Connect through a wireless network option.
Connect the USB cable ( ) to the product and the computer when prompted.
CAUTION:
Do not connect the USB cable until the installation program prompts you.
When the installation is complete, print a Configuration Report to make sure that the product has an SSID name. Follow these steps to print a configuration report:
Load plain white paper into tray 1.
On the product control panel, press OK , and then press OK again to select Reports .
Press the Right Arrow button ( ) to scroll to and select Config Report .
When the Configuration Report prints, disconnect the USB cable ( ) from the product.
You have completed the software installation. Do not perform any more steps in this document.

Well it's never recommended to do WPS setup for printer. Following the manual instructions like you posted is the best.
