Virtual printer icon gone

I accidentally closed the "drop photos to print" virtual icon off the desktop and I can not figure out how to get it back. Can someone help?

How do I get my HP Officejet Pro 8500A Desktop Icon Back?

Updated to Lion today and my printer's gone bonkers

Hi,
Sorry for the naive question.
Hoping you can help me - and thanks in advance, if so.
I updated my iMac to Lion today and updated my printer drivers too. I have a Brother 5240 mono laser printer and used the suggested 10.7 driver upgrade. But between the two updates, my computer/printer interface seems to have gone nuts.
Printing web-based documents doesn't seem to be a problem, but printing from Word/Excel (2008) is making my printer send out unwanted copies of documents. Using the file>print approach seems to be generating print jobs in duplicate, but if I press the printer icon I'm printing in sextuplicate! I've tried resending printed jobs, restarting my computer, reinstalling the drivers... but these problems seem to be consistent. Nothing suggests a setting has become modified to create unwelcome multiple copies - I've even checked all of my default settings.
I can't see any reason why my printer is now printing at least 2 copies of Word documents (up to 6 if I forget what I'm doing and pressed the printer icon in the ribbon toolbar) now that I'm using OS X 7.0.
Can anyone help me, please?

Most apps seem to be fine - Adobe Reader, Preview, iPhoto, Stickies... all printing as normal.
PowerPoint and OneNote, however are doing the multiples bit too. So it looks as though it's only Office that's got problems.

There is no print icon in my customizeable menu options screen.

I am trying to add a print icon to my navigation toolbar but it is not included in the icons in the customize screen.

You can try using the '''Restore Default Set''' button at the bottom of that Customize Palette to see if it reappears, but that will undo all your Toolbar button customizations.
Are you sure that '''Print''' button is "gone"? <br />
Maybe you moved that button previously to a Toolbar that you now have hidden? <br />
Also, some extensions add so many buttons to the Palette that it makes the default buttons hard to find. Sometimes the "added" buttons are in the middle of the layout or change the original order of buttons in the Palette.

Why is there a question mark over a printer icon on my dock?

I have just installed a new printer on my computer. I also have another printer installed along with this one. I put this new printer's icon on my dock. Now my old printer icon is showing a question mark over it. I set my new printer to be the default printer. Didn't know if that was the problem, so reset the default printer to be my old printer, but icon stayed. Reset new printer to default and then turned on the old printer. Question mark still there. Set old printer to default and tuned on the old printer. Set old printer to scan to see if setting it up to use it would do something. Question mark still there. I am stumped. Anyone know why this is happening? It just bugs me that it won't go away.

Noticed in the print summary that the printer icon had a pause symbol over it even though there was no print job listed that could be deleted. Then got brilliant idea - took icon off of dock and dragged a new icon to dock - voila!! question mark gone!! Crazy. Anyway thanks for your thoughts as it led me to try this.

Is it be true to say a good and not corrupted crystal report always has the option to generate a PDF when click the printer icon on the Crystal toolbar ?

''please stick with your original questions thread about Crystal Report - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/970077 - locking this thread''l
When i unistall and again install a fresh Crystal report for .Net 4.0 Its ok to generate only to pdf option when click to the print icon on crystal report viewer but in another computer it is promting the old fasion like "a dialog with many option" ,But if want to have a only option to generate only to pdf option what should i have to do when my project and crystal report is at Window server 2008 R2,Please suggest a requred answer?

Firefox will update in increments when you use such old versions. The best thing to do is to go to www.getfirefox.com, and download Firefox 19.0.2. This is going to be much faster than updating to 3.0.19, then to 3.6, then 12, then 19 (which is the current process).

How can I set up a share virtual printer on my macbook to print to pdf from my iPhone 5 or iPad?

I've never had the occassion to use a virtual printer setup but I've seen where other people have when they need to print to pdf and have no printer available where they are. So, my question is really a spin off of that type of situation, except I have a printer, I just don't want to print. I want to save from my iPad or iPhone to my MacBook's hard drive in pdf format. From what I've seen online, I would imagine it involves setting up a virtual printer on the MacBook that I can set up as a shared printer, but there are so many conflicting responses on setting up a virtual printer and most of them are for older. Does anyone have any experience with setting up a similar virtual printer in Maverick?
For completeness, I'll add system info:
MackBook 5.2 Core 2 Duo 2 GHz upgraded with 4 GB DDR2 RAM and Maverick OS
Obviously the virtual printer needs to support iPrint.

If I can not set up a second Contacts folder, does anybody have an alternative way of having contact information that a person could see the information from an Outlook Format available for viewing?

How can I get the printer icon to show in 3.6.6

In previous versions a printer icon showed near the top of the page - I would like to have that again instead of doing a File-Print action or control-p.

For details of how to add the print icon to the toolbar see [[how to customize the toolbar]].

Why does my printer icon no longer show on topleft?

The printer icon used to be at top left . There is a printer icon on bottom right but clicking on it does not get my printer printing.

The default Firefox toolbar layout doesn't show a Print button, either top or bottom. See if this helps you.

How do i remove my old printer icon/software?

i recently bought a new printer and installed in on my mac, and am no longer using the old HP as the wireless radio doesnt work. the HP icon is still on my dock, and i want to remove the software and the icon. new printer is installed, but the icon isn't on the dock, and i have to search for it when i want to scan something. also, i want to put my cisco router icon on the dock as well. i am a longtime PC user who switched to this mac in march last year. still learning the ropes!
thanks!

Removing Old Printer:
On your Dock, drag the Old Printer icon away from the dock. (A puff of smoke should show - this means you have removed it from the Dock)
Navigate to [System Preferences > Print & Scan].
(On the left of the Print & Scan window will be a white colored column, titled 'Printers', with a '+' and a '-' symbol at the bottom.) Click on the Old HP Printer, that is located in this column, and click the '-' symbol that is at the bottom of the white colored column titled 'Printers'.
Select 'Delete Printer' when the dialogue box shows.
Adding Printer Icon to Dock:
Navigate to [System Preferences > Print & Scan].
Drag the New Printer Icon (In the White Column titled 'Printers') and place it on your Dock.
Please note: You cannot add the Printer Icon next to the Icons near the Trash Can.
Keep moving the Printer Icon along the Dock until a gap opens for you to place the Printer Icon.
Adding the Router Icon to Dock:
As far as I am aware, this is not possible. Wi-Fi settings are located on the Title Bar at the top right hand corner, of every window.
There is no need to have the Router on the Dock.

How do I download my Photosmart D5160 virtual printer to my windows 7

I have been using my Photosmart D5160 printer in a XP Vertual mode on my Windows 7 computer for about eight years now to print lables on DVDs. Somthing happened in the last couple of weeks and the virtual printer won't conect to my Windows 7 computer any more. I would like to know how to download the Photosmart D5160 printer file to Vertual XP program to my Windows 7 computer again so I can print on DVDs.

System Preferences->Sharing, check DVD or CD Sharing to on.
Also, make note of the iMac's IP address in case Windows
doesn't automatically see it and you need to connect
manually.

Export and Print icons missing from report viewer

I'm currently embedding crystal within a wicket application in which I'm making use of the getHtmlContent() method to retrieve the report's HTML. For whatever reason, I'm not able to get either the export or print icons (on the top left side of the viewer). Is this because I'm using the getHtmlContent() method or do I have something misconfigured somewhere? Setting the setHasExportButton(true) and setHasPrintButton(true) on the report viewer object has no effect.
If I run the same report using the generated JSP outside of my application (within tomcat), I see the export/print buttons. I notice the JSP makes use of the processHttpRequest() method. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Louis

Hi Louis
- The getHtmlContent() method handles the user's request to generate the HTML for the report and returns the HTML as a String.
Note: Either the getHtmlContent method or the processHttpRequest method can be used to handle the user's request to generate the HTML for the report, depending on how you write your JSP. If the viewer's content is displayed more than once, then the getHtmlContent method is more efficient, because the request is processed once and the resulting HTML string can be used multiple times. In this case, you must set the content type of the HTML, as recommended in the table. Additionally, using getHtmlContent sets setOwnPage to false and disables exporting and printing.
- The setOwnPage(true) and processHttpRequest() method should be used if you want the export and print button to appear in the report viewed through Crystal Report Viewer.
Following is the snippet of code which shows you how to use these 2 methods.
//Get the IReportSource object from sesion and pass it to the viewer
     IReportSource reportSource = (IReportSource)session.getAttribute("reportSource");
Create the viewer and render the report -
     //create the CrystalReportViewer object
     CrystalReportViewer oCrystalReportViewer = new CrystalReportViewer();
     //set the reportsource property of the viewer
     oCrystalReportViewer.setReportSource(reportSource);
     //set viewer attributes
     oCrystalReportViewer.setOwnPage(true);
     oCrystalReportViewer.setOwnForm(true);
     //set the CrystalReportViewer print mode
     //oCrystalReportViewer.setPrintMode(CrPrintMode.ACTIVEX);
     oCrystalReportViewer.setPrintMode(CrPrintMode.PDF);
     //process the report
     oCrystalReportViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, getServletConfig().getServletContext(), null);
Hope this helps you .
Thanks

I cannot print any kind of document using the File Print command on the tool bar of any application, but I can print using the printer icon. OS X 6.8 with HP Photosmart printer. Any thoughts?

When trying to print any kind of document on my wife's Mac Pro, the File>Print Command will not work. She just downloaded an update to Microsoft Office and the problem began after that, but it also applies to other non-Microsoft Applications. However, the print function does work when you use the printer icon in any of the applications. She has OS X 6.8 and an HP Photosmart printer. Thank you for any thoughts.

Did your wife also apply the Feb. 2 Security Update 2012-01 v. 1.0 from Apple? That update contains a bug which disables printing and some other functions in applications that were originally written for the PowerPC processor and which require Rosetta to run on Intel Macs. Fortunately, yesterday Apple released v. 1.1 of the update, which resolves the problem. Run Software Update again to install the revised update.

Acrobat X Pro Virtual Printer

Thanks.

Controlling the encoding of a PDF printed with a virtual printer?

Hi all.
In another thread, I was told that I cannot change the encoding of fonts with Adobe Reader. How about with Acrobat?
In an existing business process, users print PDFs to a virtual printer from Acrobat Reader. The resulting PDF somtimes contain CID fonts with encoding Identity-H.
Not all PDF viewers do this, some keep the encoding of the original pdf (same virtual printer used).
Can I control the encoding of the resulting PDF by printing from Acrobat (or any other Adobe product)?
All comments appreciated,
/Martin

Thanks for answering!
1) I realize it seems strange, but the virtual printer is embedded in one of our products. The product uses Windows printing as a point of integration in order to enable almost any windows program (including PDF readers) to send data to our server. In effect, we use pdf as our data protocol over the wire. It's a long story...
2) The virtual printer embedded in our product is NovaPDF.
3) I wish it wasn't an issue, but the library we use to extract text (PDFNet) does not seem to handle it very well. However, I am simultaneously looking for a solution in that end too.
The problem only occurs very rarely, for specific PDFs only. PDFs created by the library iText seem to be particularly problematic.
