Using a mac. will not print...no image with print preview ...why no print image?

why no image when use print preview nor with print function? using a mac

Hello my friend,
When troubleshooting we look to see if the problem is local or global. Again, you may very well know this so apologies. Anyway, if you haven't already, then please create another account on your Mac. You should do this anyway, actually everybody should. (The Tim knows). So test to see if the problem exists in the other account as well. I name the extra account maint and make it an admin account. If you find that it prints normally with the maint account, that is good, because it just means that one or more of your local account preferences are munged in the primary account. Global on the other hand is a bit more work to solve. If that's the case you can try reinstalling the operating system. In most cases that will overwrite the low level culprit and put you back in the sweet zone. Let me know how it goes, it's an interesting problem. I like those. Especially when they aren't mine. ;-)
I have been supporting Ma cs for a very very long time. If IICX rings a bell. Anyway, just reinstalling the OS over the top is pretty quick. However, we techs like to find the little sucker that's causing the problem and we can spend many hours scouring to locate it. It's a challenge to us not to let the computer get the better of us. Win. But the reality of it is often a simple OS reinstall will get you back in the game. Beyond that is a hardware problem concern. To me from what you describe it sounds software to me. So don't worry too much about that at this point.
Peace, Tim

PDF files created in Acrobat Pro X for Mac will not print correctly on Windows - text is missing

I recently created a PDF file with pictures and texts in Acrobat Pro X. However, when I send it to my coworkers (who work on Windows computers), the printed file contains only images, and no text. I am using Century Gothic - a font that is installed on these Windows computers. When they open the files, they can see the text and everything exactly as it is meant to be. However, upon printing, the text disappears completely.
We are using a Konica Minolta Bizhub printer to complete these printouts. When I print from my computer (the Mac), the files print perfectly on this printer. However, when using the same printer, a Windows user cannot print the text in the PDF's.
Has anyone else run across this problem? I am thinking of trying to embed fonts, however it doesn't seem like it would make much of a difference (since the fonts show up fine on a Windows computer anyways). Is there a known issue with printing PDF's on a Konica Minolta printer?

The archive format you used embeds all fonts, as does Press and Print type job settings. The standard job settings does not embed all fonts and that might be where the problem was.

My apple mac will not print safari adobe

I am trying to print a ticket - the printer says it can not print. It does not recongise the safari adobe.

No idea what you mean by 'Safari Adobe'. Safari is a web browser, Adobe are software application developers.
What Mac are you running, with what version of OS X?

My mac will not print in color

At first I thought it was my printer, but =( come to find out, it is my macbook. Someone please help find the setting to change this.
Thank you.

First, look in the , System Preferences, Hardware, Print & Fax.
On my Canon color printer, I can do a test page from Options and Supplies, Utility, Test Page , but it is probably highly-dependent on which printer you have as to the exact menus to get to the test page.
A test page will confirm that you're not running out of ink, or have a dried-out color cartridge.
If your test page prints correctly, including all colors, proceed to check actual printer settings with Command-P.
Click the blue 'down' arrow button next to your printer name.
It will reveal lots of additional print options.
For my Canon printer, the 'grayscale' checkbox is under Quality and Media settings, one of a number of drop-down choices from a scroll-bar located mid-page.
It's also possible that it is a setting within whatever application program you're using. Sometimes, it can be a faulty printer cable.
If none of this solves your problem, you'll have to tell us more details about what you're trying to print, from what application program, and on what printer. We absolutely try to be helpful here, but we're not mind-readers!

Hi MayLane03,
Thanks for posting. If you upgraded from Lion to Mountain Lion, please try these steps:
1) Go into your Applications folder, then the Coupons folder and run the uninstall.
2) Once the uninstall is complete, drag the Coupons folder to the Trash can.
3) Reboot your system.
4) Go back to Coupons and reinstall the Coupon Printer for Mac.
You should be able to print. If not, please reply here.
Thanks,

PowerMac G4 OS 10.4.11 will not recognise RAW images on a SDHC card but it will see JPGs why?

Question:
I have a PowerMac G4 OS10.4.11. I have recently bought a Lumix LX5 camera and it uses an SDHC card. My Mac will not recognise RAW image files stored on it either by plugging the camera into a USB slot or by using a USB card reader. Can anyone tell me how to overcome this problem?

Thanks for that,
I downloaded RPP and it does indeed open the RAW files and lets me convert them into TIFFs or JPGs which I can then import into Photoshop to play with. However I'm still confused about why I can't open them in Photoshop directly. My other camera is a SLR saving to a SanDisk Extreme lll Compact Flash card and I can open RAW files off that on the same computer with no problem using a Photoshop RAW converter plug-in.

HT3412 Want to order books but received the following message, "your book appears to have unedited text which will not print in your book." What does that mean?

Please help. Want to order completed book but received the following message, "your book appears to have unedited text which will not be printed in your book." What does that mean? Why did the program let me use text that will not print?

Go thru every page in the book and look for any text box. Unused text boxes will have somegthing like this in them:
or this:
Just put a space in those text boxes where you didn't put text previously. Check the inside flaps of the book jacket also.

This particular forum is dedicated to older non-intel-based iMacs, which can't run OS 10.8. You might have better luck re-asking your question in this forum:

My mac will not show images when on the internet?

My mac will not show images when on the internet? I think I have inadvertently changed some settings but nor sure which one.

I am going to assume you are using Safari here. If so then go to the Apple menu bar and hit Safari-> Preferences. Under the Apperance tab there is a check box that is called "Display images when the page opens". Check if that is unticked.

downloaded acrobat reader 11 onto my Mac Book Pro, it can open the file but will not print. Get a message that says PDF cannot be printed, however, I forwarded it to someone else and they could print it, no problem. I called HP and spent an 1hour with them and then called Apple support and worked with them for 3 hours. No one can figure it out. Is there something wrong with this version? the pdf was created in 2004. Do I have to pay to get Acrobat?

Let me give you a slightly different perspective than everyone else here. You are using an unsecured wireless network, which means that all your network traffic is easily available for viewing by anyone else using that network. That's bad. Very bad, for you, unless you absolutely trust everyone who lives within range of this network. So stop doing it.
As to the Mac not connecting, wireless networking is simply too complex for any reasonable answer without more information. There are many possible error points, and as often as not it's the Mac that can connect and the Windows PC that cannot. Since you can't give us any information about the configuration of the neighbor's network, and can't make any changes to it, we can't do much to help you troubleshoot it.

Firefox 5 with Fedora 15 prints text, but will not print images from web pages.

I have a Pentium 3 laptop running Fedora 15 and using Firefox 5.0. Firefox will print the text from a website, but will not print the images. It just leaves the spaces blank where the images should be. Print preview shows the same results. I have a AMD desktop and a Pentium 4 laptop running the same software, except that the desktop is running the 64-bit version of Fedora 15 and the second laptop is running the 32-bit version. The desktop prints the text and images without very many problems, but both laptops will print the text, but ''not'' the images.
As a test, I downgraded Firefox from version 5.0 to 4.0.1 on the Pentium 4 laptop and encountered the same problem. So, since I do not print much from either laptop, I had not before seen this problem. The desktop has never seen it.
I figure it may be an about:config problem, but I do not know what the parameter may be that is causing the problem.

.pdf I opened on my Mac Air, Lion OS will not print

Sometimes a .pdf will not print on any of my reliable printers. The entire sheet remains white with no print at all. I can't figure our why. Any ideas?

Hi TeresaMM,
Sorry to hear you are experiencing issues with the printer. I would like to help, can you describe for me what the printer is or is not doing. It sounds to me like it is not turning on but I could have misunderstood.
You said you are using the printer with 3 Mac computers so I believe it is setup wireless, please confirm. When you say it doesn't work again, I wonder, do you get an error message on the computer you are printing from, or on the front screen of the printer, maybe blinking lights?
Please elaborate on your description so that I can help identify the root cause and provide you with a solution.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

LR 4 - image does not appear in Preview and will not print`

The selected image appears on the main/center panel but not in the preview screen. Printing results in a white sheet of paper with no image at all. The image has been updated to LR 4 - but made no difference. I've served help and the forums (where i saw mention of similar problems, but no comments or guidance on the problem). What am I doing wrong?

The problem began with the installation of LR4. I print directly from LR4 to my HPZ3100. I routinely select "print preview" in the print dialogue box. Now the first print I see the preview and then it prints. If I select a second print job and use the "print preview" the print preview screen comes up blank and never loads. If I try to delete the print job, it just never responds (resolves) so I have to turn off the computer and the printer and restart to clear the print job. if I don't use the print preview, it prints just fine (except that I'm not able to check what's about to be printed). Thanks for any thoughts you have on this.

Bill, if this is only happening some of the time, then we are probably looking at a resource issue. Any pattern in when things won't print? e.g. Certain file type won't but others will? Or is it more of a timing/order thing? e.g. First file prints fine, second does not? VStromee, do no files print for you? Or is it like Bill and sometimes the print and other times they do not? Did you install any new software recently or have any updates to the OS or any application that has printing capabilities?

My Office Print Pro 8600 Plus will not print pdf files sent to it from an iPad using ePrint.

My Office Print Pro 8600 Plus will not print pdf files sent to it from an iPad using ePrint. I just get an error message when I go to the HP Eprint centre. It does print the cover e-mail but nothing else. The attachment is not secure as far as I can see. I have tried sending an attachment from my Mac and that worked fine.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello krnkln3.
Are you trying to send the PDF as an attachment in an e-mail sent to the ePrint e-mail address of the printer or are you trying to print using the ePrint app?
Try sending the same PDF document to the printer's ePrint e-mail address and let us know if that works. If this works but using the ePrint app is not working, maybe the ePrint app is not working fine with this PDF document (it could be due to it's size or something else). Remember that you can always use the e-mail ePrint address of the printer to send PDF documents as the processing is happening at the HP servers and not in your iPad as when you try to send it using the ePrint app.
Cheers!

My pc will not print a pdf made on mac os?

my pc will not print a pdf made on mac os? Anybody out in adobe land have any helpful tips or suggestions, or I am I doomed to running to kinko's everytime I need to print a signed pdf from a mac user, it's 2014, and many dumb IT problems still exist in the world. But hey, we can put people on the moon, and sounds like mars is on the way, why adobe, why?

This can happen with PDFs made in Preview (Part of Mac OS X). PDFs created with Preview are "quirky" at best with Reader. Especially if they contain form fields or images. THAT's an Apple thing. Whenever I need something "universal" I always make it with Acrobat Pro, because I deal with PC clients all week long.
Even PDFs made with Acrobat on a PC, signed and then saved with Preview, will have problems.
