Unable to print to file on PRINTER HD

I have an Oki C7300 printer which has a built in hard drive. Before upgrading from OS 9.x to Panther (now 10.3.9) it was possible to print PS files directly to the printer's hard drive. Now it isn't. Oki support tells me that Apple dropped support for that option, though the Apple printer setup utility provides check boxes for installed options (memory, duplex and HD). Why would they allow selection of the options, but then not provide the means to utilize the option??!!
Latest "driver" files from Oki are installed, and the Apple printer utility recognizes the printer and the options. But nowhere can I find in the print menu screens or drop downs anything about printing to the PRINTER'S hard drive.
Perhaps I have missed something. Has anyone else run into this problem, or a reasonable work-around?

Your Printer folder needs to be located in the Applications folder and double clicked and opened there. All the drivers all need to be placed in this same folder before you open them. Restart your computer and try your printer again....Good Luck...Don

I am shooting with a Nikon D60 on Fine Format and unable to print larger than 11x14. I have been able to print larger pictures. I am told iPhoto reduces the size of the file when uploaded. Is this true? If so how can I change this? I need 16x20's

Unable to print PDF files using Acrobat 8.

I had to uninstall and then reinstall Office for Mac 2011. I don't know if it's related or not, but since doing so I have been unable to print PDF files using Adobe Acrobat 8. After opening a PDF file and hitting print, Adobe Acrobat 8 crashes. Any suggestions? I already uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Acrobat 8, but it still won't print PDF files. O

While you are having difficulty in printing a PDF file, you may try the subsequent steps. If you are in a rush and would like to print a simple document such as a letter, a form, or a calendar, you may print it as an image. Next option is that you may need to update your printer driver if the PDF does not print, the PDF prints as a blank page or with unreadable text or if you get an error message when you print. Sometimes, when you print a file that is on a thumb drive or a network, the file gets damaged. Then you have to open the copy on your hard drive and print again. At last, you can try printing the PDF using another printer and check your printer connection too if the PDF does not get printed. get more help to fix unable to printer PDF file hope this helps you.
Good Luck!

Unable to print pdf files from sites

I am unable to print pdf files from any website. Suspect an incorrect setting; but, not sure how to correct it.

Back up all data.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

I'm unable to print pdf files from certain web sites. I have just changed to Mavericks

i'm unable to print pdf file from certain web site. I just changed over to Mavericks.

You will need to access that PDF on your computer first, before you can print it — unless that PDF is corrupted, which occasionally happens. Your printer needs to be configured and working.
Default PDF web-browser plug-in in Safari, latest (Firefox/Chrome) also built-in.
Click on the remote PDF link to open in browser
On Mavericks, you will need to click through security challenges for the PDF
File menu > Print
Right-click on remote PDF file and then choose Download Linked File As...Open that file in /Applications/Preview.appFile > print
Adobe Reader 11.0.04 PDF plug-in
Same security challenges on Mavericks as first bullet
With PDF imaged in browser, either select print icon from the plug-in toolbar, or mouse over the bottom one inch of displayed document and you will see a printer icon in the popup toolbar. Use that.

I am up to date with Mozilla, Adobe and Shockwave but am unable to print PDF files or view animations in programmes

I use a teaching resource called Studyladder.co.nz. It uses animations for teaching programmes and activites. On my new computer, with up to date versions of Firefox and Adobe I am unable to get the animations to work. Also I am unable to print PDF files.

Hi Hilarym-
Here are two articles with information about printing issues:
* [[Firefox prints incorrectly]]
* [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problems_printing_web_pages Problems printing web pages]
Here is another article regarding your problem with animations:
* [[Images or animations do not show]]
Hope that helps!

How To Print After Error Msg: Unable to convert postscript file

We installed "Maverick" on our MacBook Pro and our printer is a HP 8600. We were unsuccessful in getting our Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 to print our PDF files. Instead, we got the error msg: Printing Stopped: unable to convert postscript file. We have used this application for years without any problems. How do we solve this problem so that our application WILL "convert postscript file" or do we have to spend several hundred dollars to upgrade?

I think we solved the problem. Instead of looking for the solution via Adobe, we went to our printer info online, which was the HP OfficeJet 8600. We found special printer drivers for our newly installed Maverick operating system for our MacBook Pro. After downloading and installing the new drivers per the directions, we tested printing a pdf document and it was printed without any problem.

Unable to Print, only Print To File, w/o the printing.

When I open up a PDF and try to print I am unable to print. The printing window pops up, and you can choose your print, but when I press the 'print' button, a window opens for Print To File, and when you save, nothing happens.
I have tried restarting the computer, upgrading, and even unistalling and reinstalling. I cannot figure it out!

Look for the "print to file" option in the print menu and deselect it.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

I am unable to print color photos from i photo using a Brother Printer

I am unable to print color photos from i photo using a Brother MFC-6490CW all in one. The photos appear to be in grayscale. I have checked the printer settings, but for some reason I am not able to access the color management on my printer from printer set up. It only gives me the standard option. I have spent hours checking Bother's website and Apple's and I am not able to come up with a valid answer. I know that the color print works. If I print something from the internet of from outlook it will print in color. I know all of my cartridges are in working order, I have cleaned the print head on my Brother, but I am still not able to print photos in color!!!
What puzzles me the most is why I am unable to really access the color management menu on my printer? It just does not come up. I have the option from paper handling to print photos, but this has nothing to do with the quality. I have also tried printing the photo from an Adobe PDF file and I still have the same problem. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you.

In the Print dialogue box click on the little triangle to the right of the name of the printer. That will expand the dialogue box.

PDF: Unable to print a document as PDF from APEX when using the BI Publishe

Hi,
From an APEX application, I am unable to print a document in a PDF format when using the Oracle BI Publisher.\
Here is the configuration:
1) Server A is W2K3 and hosts the Oracle BI Publisher server, with IP address ip01.
2) Server B is a OEL5.2 and hosts the database server of the APEX application, with IP address ip02.
3) Machine C is a W7 desktop from which through an URL both the APEX applicationn and the BI server are accessed, with IP address ip03.
4) The APEX application is configured with the following to use the Oracle BI Publisher:
- Printer server: Advanced (requires Oracle BI Publisher)
- Printer server protocol: HTTP
- Printer server host address: ip01
- Printer server port: 9704
- Printer server script: /xmlpserver/convert
- Network services are enabled (at least I did get any warning/error message)
From C, I access the the APEX application through its URL, if I try to download a page by selecting PDF in the download section of the interative report section for that page, I am unable to open if and get the error:
<file>. pdf file can not be opened because the file type is not supported or because it is damaged (because, for example as an e-mail attachment is not sent and correctly decoded)
Yet, still from C, I am able to open any other PDF document.
The same way, still from C, acessing the APEX application through its URL, I have a query report defined with a PDF output format. Then, when I test the report (Test Report in the Report query) for that query, I get the error:
ORA-20001: The printing engine could not be reached because either the URL specified is incorrect or a proxy URL needs to be specified.
At first sight this could be a wong entry in the priinter configuration for APEX. But with this address, through the URL I can log in to the Oracle BI Publisher server.
Does someone has an idea what the problem could be?
Thanks for any tips.

How are you trying to print to pdf?
Don't go via PostScript or Acrobat Distiller, which are old deprecated technology.
You use:
Menu > File > Print > PDF (button bottom left) > Save as PDF…
