Very Urgent !! XMLP reports not printing directly from Oracle Apps.

Hi ,
We are not able to print XMLP reports directly from Oracle Applications(Concurrent Manager) to the printer.
We have checked the following setups and they are ok.
1. Have a Postscript ready printer.
2. PASTA has been installed and setup.
3. The printer type "--Pasta Universal Printer Type" is associated with the printer and that the seeded "PDF Publisher" print style and PASTA_PDF printer driver are associated with the printer type. Third party program "pdftops" has been installed in the instance.
4. pasta_pdf.cfg is present and that it contains an "uncommented" entry as follows:
preprocess=pdftops {infile} {outfile}
5. The XMLP Report also has print style as "PDF Publisher".
Initially, Step 5 was not being followed and the printer was printing the XML data instead of the pdf output.
Now, after changing it to PDF Publisher, nothing is coming as output to the printer.
I have checked that both the XML and pdf files are getting generated.
Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Satrajit

Hi Satrajit,
Please make sure you have pdftops is available on the server and in the PATH.
Please run following two commands.
$ which pdftops
$ which pdf2ps
Please use one of two commands you found in the server.
Please review Metalink Note 338990.1 for more details.
Thanks,
Shinji

Why can I now not print direct from a PDF from an email

Why can I now not print direct from an email file attatchment

Can you explain in better detail?
Is it when you open the file attachment and attempt to Print?
Is it right-mouse clicking and attempting to Print?
Is it when you print the email itself and expect the attachment to Print?

I can using AirPrint from safari and email to my hp printer but do not get print as an option from the pulldown menu from the new york times and other apps. How can I print directly from these apps?

I can't seem to print directly from apps like the new York times. Print is not an option from the pulldown menu. Print to my hp printer works fine from safari and email though and from some other apps. Do some apps not permit printing? That doesn't right.

Thats funny. If go to ny times on safari therebis a print icon and no problem printing. On the app -- and I am a paid subscriber -- no print option ...
You can ask the NY Times why not.
Standard behavior is that Airprint always works with iBooks, Mail, Photos, and Safari. Apps are up to their author.

I have a new printer which behaves OK except it will not print directly from a web site accessed via Firefox. We do not have this problem if accessed via another browser. Suggestions?

New printer is Brother MFCJ615W. OS is XP. Computer is quite old Dell. Printer also refuses to print pictures from .jpg files - but the fact that I can print direct from web sites accessed via another browser suggests some of the problem is with Firefox. I asked this a few days ago and got an email reply giving me a link to click on - but this only produced an error message.

I think I solved the wifi connection problem, just by switching off completely the router! sounds trivial, but in this case it worked!!!
the funny behaviour of the trackpad/cursor still persists. any suggestion???
thanks again

PDF will not print correctly from any app

I seem to keep on getting the same error everywhere I print on SL (from safari/firefox/preview etc etc)
It will usually print any lines or logos but miss all text?? I did have the dreaded adobe reader installed but have since removed it?
I am in urgent need of printing out some manuals for a class so in real trouble, help!

Where do these PDFs that do not print correctly come from? Are they downloaded from the internet or from email? Or do you create them yourself on your computer? If so, in which program?
Do some PDF files print correctly, but not others? Did you remove the dreaded Acrobat Reader before this problem developed or after? Did this problem develop only after you ungraded to a certain release of Snow Leopard or has it never worked in SL?
PDF is wonderful technology, but every so often there can be issues.

My printer prints from word but nowhere else. not even directly from printer glass.

I have had this printer, Officejet Pro 8600 (Model # SNPRC-1101-01)since December 2013 with no problems until recently. Nothing has changed. No new computers, printers, change in internet servers, etc. I can print from word documents but the printer sounds like its working overtime looking for what to print. No strange noices just a lot of carriage movement. It will not print directly from the glass and the automatic feed on top of machine does not work. The print cartridges are in correctly along with plenty of the correct size of HP paper (8.5x11). I now get various messages, Error; Paper detected does not match paper size or type selected. Make sure paper size is correct to continue the job; etc. Sometimes when it does print wirelessly, the margins are off center, leaving about 2-4" blank space from papers left edge. I have tried all the obvious fixes. Shutting it down. Unplugging and letting it rest for 10 plus minutes before reconnecting to power and restarting. Turning Router off for 10 minutes before turning it back on. I even checked the settings and selected " restore to factory default settings."
Please explain in great detail what I need to do to fix my printer as I am not that tech savy.
Thank you in advance for any help and advice.

Melisa-
I wonder if you have a print job stuck in the print queue? Double click the Home button and a row of recent applications should appear across the bottom of the screen. Scroll across and look for the Print Queue.

B110 won't print directly from iPhone

I've posted on this before, but didn't get any help with the problem, so I'll try again.
Basically, one of my B110 printers will not print directly from any iPhone or iPad. All devices come up with 'no Airplay printers found' message.
Before anyone asks, yes, of course the printer is on the list of Airplay compatible printers, yes, it prints fine via eprint emails, and yes, I have followed the very limited (switch on and off type advice) from the Apple support site.
It is connected via the D-Link Powerline N type wireless devices.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

Sorry to hear you are having issues with AirPrint! I found a document that should resolve your issue. Be sure to follow the article in order. Be sure to post back with your results so I know if this solved your issue. I hope this helps!

Printing directly from a mobile device that is NOT on a wifi network

I would like to print directly from an ipad, that does not connect to a home wifi connection.
I have read in some forums, that the HP 6520 can create a direct ad-hoc style wifi connection that the IOS device can connect to, but this is not clearly stated in the feature set on this website.
Can a support admin please clarify whether printing directly from a mobile device that is NOT connected to a shared wifi network is possible?

Hi,
Pleae try the following setup:

Why will my HP6510 not print to photo tray when I print directly from my computer?

Why will my HP6510 not print to photo tray when I print directly from my computer?
I am able to print to the photo tray when I print from a memory card, inserted directly into the printer. However, when I try to print a picture saved directly to my laptop through my wireless connection, the picture prints from the main tray. If I take the paper out of the main tray, I get the out of paper message. When I first bought the printer, I had no problems with this issue. The printer is about 2-3 years old. I have gone into the HP software on my laptop and set the preferences for photo tray, along with the size I wanted and the photo paper I was using. By the way, it is HP photo paper. I have also done the same on the print screen on my laptop. In addition, I have gone into preferences on the printer itself and chosen "Prompt for photo tray." I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the HP software on my laptop. I successfully printed the "practice picture" during the reinstalling process. None of this has solved the problem.
I have no problem printing a document from my laptop wirelessly to the printer.

Hi mountainnana,
Thank you for your response, sorry the guide was not what you were looking for.
Here are some other suggestions:
Open the HP Solution Center (icon is normally on the desktop.) Click on Set Preferences, Click on the Paper/Quality tab, for the Source choose Tray 2, choose the right paper size and media type. Click Apply, and then OK. Then try printing your photo again.
If that does not work there could be a driver/software conflict happening. If that is the case please try our HP Print and Scan Doctor.
Otherwise, proceed with a uninstall and reinstall of your printer software using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
Hope this solves your issue, and have a good day!

How do I print directly from my iPad to wireless Brother air printer ?

We cannot print directly from ipad1. We have a new Brother pie print compatible (supposedly) printer, given as a gift, model MFCJ825DW. It prints nicely from my MacBook Pro through our home wifi network. The iPad, however, will not connect to the printer directly and print. I have to have the MacBook Pro running also in order to print, and then only through an app I bought off iTunes for $9.99. That app is very difficult to use as well (Pro Center...). Is there simply no way to connect an iPad 1 to print directly to this printer ? I have to take my Macbbk Pro to work, and this leaves my wife and the iPad unable to print. That was the main reason for getting the wireless printer! Am I going to have to buy an HP printer, and to they really allow you to print directly from an iPad? I have spent hours trying to solve this and have tried everything I could find, including Google cloud (unable to load Google Chrome on iPad), iPrint and Scan, etc. Can anyone help us out here, or are we just stuck with an Apple product and a printer we cannot effectively use?

Your printer is on the list of supported printers.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
So it should work. I have not used a brother, but the drill for other airprint printers is:
Make sure the printer is on the same wifi network.
From the printer console, check for and install any firmware update that is available. Almost all airprint devices need the firmware up date. Do the update from the printer, not your computer.
Reboot the pad. Recycle the router. If it still is not working, goto the brother support sire and see if there is a discussion there that can help you.

AI images not printing correctly from InDesign

(Reposting from Color Management Forum)
First off, please forgive me if this is not the right forum or if I am not using the right terms. I am the network admin for our company and I'm posting this on behalf of our designer.
We recently added PostScript drivers to our Sharp printers, and we have been seeing odd printing results when printing embedded .AI files.
We use CreativeSuite CS5, and our developer has hundreds of images with pure white and transparent backgrounds stored in .AI format. When these images are embedded/linked to an Indesign document they print with a solid black background and what appears to be an inverted color pattern, almost like a photo negative.
All embedded EPS images print fine. The affected .AI files print fine when printed directly from Illustrator.
The embedded images print fine using a PCL driver. We are trying to implement the Postscript driver for better color quality.
Any ideas?
(We are using Windows XP SP3, x86
Server based network printing on Windows 2003 x86)
Thanks in advance
Matt

Unfortunately, no we are still dealing with it. Like you, I have found very little on this anywhere else.
Sharp has been very helpful, trying to see if it is something in the PS drivers, but to no avail. I'm pretty confident that there is nothing wrong with the PS drivers since everything else prints just fine.
So far, our designer is either converting images to EPS documents or converting the InDesign file to PDF before printing. Frustrating and time consuming are an understatement, but it is getting the job done.
If you do find something, please post back here! I'll do the same.

HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print docs from computer, but will print a test page.

HP Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print docs from computer, but will print a test page. I continually get a message that the computer cannot communicate with the printer.   Not only will it not print docs, it will not print web pages using IE 11 or Google Chrome.
I've used Print and Scan Doctor, it always reports there are no issues and prints a test page even though I can't print anything else.
Each time I want to print, I must reboot the computer. After reboot I have one chance to print.   This problem started February 15, 2015.
My operating system is Windows 8.1.   I have unintalled the HP software, rebooted, then reinstalled the software:
OJ8500_A910_1315-1.exe
HP Print and Scan Doctor - HPPSdr.exe
HPSupportSolutionsFramework-11.51.0049.msi
All versions were last downloaded on April 4, 2015.
I have a home wireless network (Ubee DDW366 router). All other devices in the house will print to the 8500A printer without issues: 2 Toshiba laptops, 2 Android phones, and 1FireHD.
The desk top is installed with a Netgear Network card I don't know the model, but I had it tested by a PC Tech to confirm that the card is working.   The card and Windows 8.1 were installed on January 3, 2015.
I have run virus scans and malware scans. Each time they show there are no issues with my desktop. What kind of desktop? Specifically made to my specs from store parts. . . no brand name computer. ASUS Motherboard P6X580 Premium. Now I will probably get hacked!
I am at my wits end. And it is frustrating when I need to make a print of something and the system locks up. I often resort to screen printing to a word document to save in order to reboot. . . .but then I lose all sorts of capabilites when I salvage what I needed. Also this is a time consumer.
This printer has served us well for two years and I have expensive cartridges waiting; another two rounds of refills.
Help?
Addendum: I can scan using HP Printer Assistance. I open the HP Printer assistant, it "retrieves" info from the printer, then I select "scan a document or photo" and the printer responds.   I have no trouble with scanning.
This question was solved.

Report not displaying data from one of the infoproviders

Hi Experts,
Issue: Report not displaying data from one of the infoproviders
I have a report 'ReportA' which has multiprovider MP1 as the source.
MP1 has two Infocubes IC1, IC2 in its design.
Now, when i execute the report, data from IC1 is displayed. But no data from IC2 is displayed.
Is there a setting i need to enable in MP1 ? or is there anything else that needs to be enabled ?
Please reply.
Regards,
Suraj S Nair

Hi All,
When i display data directly from the multi provider, without any restrictions, i cannot view the data from infocube IC2.
I feel its not an issue with the Query. It must be a problem with the setting in the Multiprovider MP1.
Infocube IC2 is a copy of Infocube IC1. Multiprovider MP1 first only had IC1 in its design. It was recently IC2 was also included.
I checked the Characteristics, all of them are assigned corectly.
Now, this issue sure has something to do wiht the setting of Multiprovider or please correct me if wrong.
Regards,
Suraj S Nair

I want to print directly from my iPad to a HP Officejet J6480 wireless printer. Do I need an app for this or can I do it without and if so, how?

I am a new iPad (wi fi version) owner but not the new iPad 2. I have a home wireless network and have a HP Officejet J6480 wireless printer. I print from my iMac and Powerbook directly using the wireless network and want to print directly from my iPad also. Do I need a special app for this or can I do this with something already "built-in" to the operating system of the iPad.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If you're comfortable going 'under the hood', this thread originally started in November 2010 contains a minor tweak to OS X that might work for you:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2658720?threadID=2658720&tstart=0
It allows devices on iOS 4.2 or newer to print to shared wired and wireless printers as long as the Mac is on and awake.

This is a hint to anyone who cannot find their airprint printer from their ipad: after 10 hours of trying everything imaginable, i can now print directly from my iPad by turning off the bluetooth in settings and waiting for 30 seconds. presto!

after spending a full day and a half trying everything imaginable, i finally found a way to get my ipad to find my new airprint capable printer. I could print from email or the cloud, but not directly from my ipad. After reading a discussion about bluetooth printers, i turned off bluetooth in settings, waited 30 seconds, and voila!! I was able to print directly from my ipad. Try it if you are having troubles

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.
