What about printer drivers? Will they need Rosetta to run?

I would hate to find out that my printer won't run on a new intel iMac.
Paying bills with Quicken is too important.

There are indeed many printer drivers built into OS X, but if you want to to find out for sure that your printer is supported, go to this page:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301175
or call the manufacturer.

What other hp print drivers will work with the officejet pro 8600

I have an Officejet Pro 8600 and like many others here, I am having a problem printing a custom size envelope (6x9). I did find that I can use the drivers for a deskjet 450 and setup my 8600 using those drivers. However, the 450 6x9 does not have a portait option in the layout.
My question is, what other hp print drivers will work in the 8600? I'm hoping one will have a 6x9 portrait layout?

Hello wingcheck,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're receiving a problem printing a custom envelope size (6x9). You did state that you installed a Deskjet 450, but it doesn't come with a portrait option. I will do my best to assist you!
First, I need to find out your operating system on your computer? Windows or Mac?
If you have a Windows computer and using this Deskjet 450 driver, have you checked Devices and Printers on your computer to see if you have this portrait option:
1) Right click on the Deskjet 450, then click on Printer Preferences
2) Very top you should see a tab called "Finishing" and look for Orientation
3) You should see portrait, landscape, rotate by 180 degrees or mirror image.
4) Let me know if you don't have this option on this post
If not, then I would recommend installing a Deskjet 9800 to see if you have this option. Please follow this HP document on Installing an Alternate Print Driver in Windows 7 for a USB Cable Connection. When setting up this custom size, change the paper type to "Other Specialty Media". Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great night!
Hi Cheetah .... I don't have access to my printer at the moment due to travel, but here's what I have right now. My operating system is Windows 7 64. That's not much, but it is a start. I will have the additional information for you in a day or so. Something else I discovered in the user guide, which I didn't know, is that each tray will only handle specific media. So, when I print envelopes, I will have to use Tray 1 in order to do so.
Now I do have another question for you. Can I have installed, 2 different sets of print drivers at the same time without it causing a conflict? I'm assuming the diffenent driver will simply show up as a different printer in the listed printers, right?? Any way, thanks for your quick response, and upon arriving home, I will follow your previous suggestions. I will also keep you posted as to my success or failure.
Thanks

After transaction completed in undo tablespace what would happen? will they

after transaction completed in undo tablespace what would happen?
will they take out of undo tablespace or segment?
please elaborate, thank you

Hi,
Even, if the transaction is committed, there may remains a need to retain the undo data. For instance, for the long running queries or for the flashback features. In automatic undo management, you may specify the undo retention period, which is the minimum amount of time that Oracle Database attempts to retain old undo information before overwriting it.
One may also enable the retention guarantee, which ensures that the undo data will remain in the undo tablespace, even if that means that the transaction would fail due to lack of space in the undo tablespace.
In addition, also read the following:

I have a Dell monitor ST2210, which I want to connect to my new Macbookair, what software and drivers do I need to use?

Mar14Apple,
which resolution are you using when you use your monitor? Is that resolution supported through the monitor’s VGA port? (You’d probably have better throughput by using an adapter for the HDMI port or DVI port instead.) When you say that the trackpad doesn’t work, does that mean that the cursor is not visible on the monitor, or that it physically does not work, such that clicks are not registered, &c.?

Printer drivers will not download

I have an HP Pavilion dv6 2113 sa laptop running W7 Premium 64 bit & a HP Photosmart Premium c309g-m all in one printer. They are connected by a USB cable. (too many problems running a wireless system).
I can not reload the printer drivers.
Printer function always runs perfectly but very occassionally I use the scanner & that nearly always causes problems. Tried to scan a document but could not do it by selecting 'Computer' on printer window so used a memory stick but it saved the letter as a JPEG file not a PDF. Strange! I could not change the setting to PDF. Then got a message telling me that the printer drivers were not functioning. Went online, followed good advice to uninstall the printer software & reinstall. I have tried this about 3 times using my CD (V14.1) & 3 times downloading the software (v14.1) from HP website but it always gets stuck at the last section. The NEXT box on the CONNECT YOUR DEVICE NOW is always greyed out so I can not complete the process.
After uninstalling the software the printer does not appear in the START>DEVICES & PRINTERS. After installing it as far as it will go, I can see or can add my printer in this area. In fact, the last time I tried, 2 printer descriptions were there: c309g-m & c309g-m BT. Not sure what the BT refers to.
The loss of printer drivers has happened several times since I bought it & is always problamatic trying to sort it out, but this time it will just not respond. Any ideas would be most welcome. PS I am reasonably savvy with my computer but not that technical so please keep replies simple. Thank you.

Update... After I posted the above question, I read here in another thread about somebody else having this problem and being instructed by a Brother support person to do a hard reboot of the computer right after the message appears from Apple that it "Can't install the software for [insert name of printer] because it is not currently available on the Software Update server."
I just tried this with the HP printer and, lo and behold, the printer appeared as installed after the reboot. I have also tested the printer and the Macbook does, indeed, print to it. I have no idea why this trick worked, but I thought I should pass it on to others. Now, I will try the same trick with the Brother printer and, hopefully, it will also install. Since the Brother is a combination printer/ fax/ scanner we shall see if the hard boot trick gets all of these features to work equally.
But I still don't understand why Apple itself is not posting this fix as a temporary solution to what obviously is a bug in Mountain Lion. Customers should not have to be relegated to looking on Apple Community boards like this to resolve software problems that Apple created and should be acknowledging it is aware of, is working on resolving and, in the meantime, has a workaround to suggest.

Each computer on the network must be set to the same Workgroup. The workgroup name needs to be changed from the default to a new name.
Windows XP:
1. Click Start.
2. Right click Computer and then left click Properties.
3. The default Workgroup is WORKGROUP.
4. The name of the Workgroup should be changed from the default.
5. In System Properties, click the Computer Name tab.
6. Click the Change button.
7. Enter the Workgroup name that is used by your entire network. If you are changing the Workgroup name, use the same name used in Windows 7.
8. Click OK.
9. You must restart your computer for the change to take effect.
Windows 7:
1. Click Start.
2. Right click Computer and then left click Properties.
3. The Workgroup is listed in System Properties.

7. Click the Change button.
8. Enter a new Workgroup name that will be used by your entire network.
9. Click OK.
10. You must restart your computer for the change to take effect.
Step three: Setup a share account on each computer in the network
Create a common share account on each of the computers, including the computer that is sharing the printer to the rest of the network. This share account must have the same name and password on each computer.
If you decide to use an existing account that appears on each computer all ready, this existing account must be password protected. If you do not want to password protect your default login, create a new share login as described in the following steps.
Windows XP
1. Click Start
2. Click Control Panel
3. Click User Accounts
4. Click Create a new account.
5. Enter the same user account name created as the share account on the Windows 7 computer.
6. Click Next.
7. Under “Pick an account type”, select ‘Computer Administrator’.
Note: In Windows XP you must select Computer Administrator in order setup a printer.
8. After you new account is created, select it under ‘pick an account to change’.
9. Click Create a password
10. Enter the same password used when creating the share account on the Windows 7 computer, following the directions on the screen.
11. Click Create Password button.
12. Log off your current user account and log into the new share account to activate it.
13. Once the computer is ready after logging into the share account, you can log off the share account and back into your regular user account.

8. Enter a new user account name. Use a name that is easy to remember as the account used for sharing resources across your network. For example: ‘ShareAccount’
9. After your new account is created, select it under “Choose the account you would like to change”.
10. Click Create a Password
11. Enter a new password, following the directions on the screen.
12. Click Create Password button.
13. Close any remaining opened windows, making a note of the new account name and password as you will need to create identical accounts and passwords on the other computers on your network.
14. Log off your current user account and log into the new share account to activate it.
15. Once the computer is ready after logging into the share account, you can log off the share account and back into your regular user account.
Step Four: Share the printer to the network
The computer that has the printer attached and installed by USB must have the printer shared to the network.
Windows XP
1. Open the printers and faxes folder in Windows XP.
Note: A hand symbol under the icon for the printer indicates it is already shared to the network.
2. Right click on the printer to be shared to the network.
3. Left click on Sharing.
4. Click “If you understand the security risks but want to share printers without running the wizard, click here”.
5. Select “Just enable printer sharing”.
6. Click OK.
7. Select “Share this printer”.
8. If the Share name is acceptable, click OK.
9. If you want to change the Share name, enter a new name. Click OK.
Note: If the Share name entered is longer than 8 characters, you will get a warning that the printer will not be accessible from MS-Dos computers.
Step five: Install the appropriate software for your printer
Install the printer software on the other computers on the network that will need to access the shared printer. Install the correct driver for the printer model for each computer on the network. Not all printers will need to have a driver installed, only newer printers.
1. Check for available drivers – visit the HP website and download available drivers.
Note: Even if you have an install CD for your older HP product, there may be an updated driver for your printer.
2. Launch the driver setup by double-clicking on the downloaded driver.
3. If the driver install process requires you to attach the printer USB cable to continue, click cancel instead. This will roll back the install, but it will leave the driver files installed.
4. Select the USB connection type. Look for the checkbox labeled “Connect later – Do not connect to the printer now. I will connect it later”.
Note: You might have to select USB connection type before the checkbox is visible.
5. Complete the install without attaching the USB cable.
6. After the software is installed, delete any icons created on the desktop. They will not be linked to the shared printer and will only result in errors if used.
Step six: Install the shared printer.
Note: Computers that are not sharing a resource to the network may not show up by name when viewing the entire network.
Windows 7
1. Click Start.
2. Click on Computer.
3. In the lower left pane, click on Network.
4. Double click on the computer that is sharing the printer.
5. Enter the name of your share account as the “User name”.
6. Enter the same password created for the share account.
7. Check the box labeled Remember my credentials.
8. Click OK.
9. Right click on the printer, left click Open.
10. Windows will find the previously loaded driver for the printer and complete the install.

What kind of monitor is best for judging what the printed image will look like?

I am working on a 300+ page book that contains a lot of photos that I have converted from color to grayscale in photoshop. I am using a laptop computer and I cannot judge the quality of the photos on this laptop monitor. What is the best monitor for gauging what the finished product will look like? It is a hardcover book that will be offset printed. I do not know if this particular printer uses computer-to-plate technology or if it is "old style." Thanks!

A good one...like for example this:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?N=11083422&InitialSearch=yes&sts=pi
You need to set your calibration parameters very carefully. Eizo ColorNavigator (and NEC Spectraview) are the only calibrators that give you full control of the calibration parameters, because they communicate directly with the monitor. Hence my recommendation of the CS240, which is the least expensive model in this market segment. Excellent value for money.
Set the white point so that it is a visual equivalent to paper white, both in luminance and color. A little experimenting is necessary. Start around 100 cd/m² and 6300K, and adjust as needed. Ambient light affects your perception, which is why no fixed numbers can be given.
Even more important: set a realistic black point. Monitor manufacturers love to boast huge contrast ranges, like 1000:1 and so on. Impressive on paper, but in reality there's no way you'll get those deep blacks in print. Especially not offset print.
My starting point for offset is 0.5 cd/m², but often that turns out to be too low and I end up with 0.6 or even 0.7. This depends a lot on the paper stock.
Next, ask the printer what CMYK profile is used for the actual process. Here in Europe, that's most likely ISO Coated v2 300% (eci) or Coated FOGRA39, in other parts of the world it will be something else. Use Photoshop to soft proof to this profile. Again, the Eizo is wide gamut and covers ISO Coated almost 100%. A standard gamut monitor will be a lot less useful for soft proofing.
With a little experience and effort, you can get close to 100% reliable prediction on screen.

What monitor is the best for gauging what the printed document will look like?

I am working on a 300+ page book that contains a lot of photos that I have converted from color to grayscale in photoshop. I am using a laptop computer and I cannot judge the quality of the photos on this laptop monitor. What is the best monitor for gauging what the finished product will look like? It is a hardcover book that will be offset printed. I do not know if this particular printer uses computer-to-plate technology or if it is "old style." Thanks!

If you are talking about judging the tonality of the grayscale images there are 2 color profiles that affect the display of a grayscale image. The monitor's profile-- the profile that is created when the monitor is calibrated and describes your monitor's display. And the gray profile that is assigned to the image, if no gray profile is assigned Photoshop's working gray profile is used. By default it is 20% Dot Gain. The accuracy of your grayscale image display depends on how accurate your monitor profile is and the accuracy of the gray profile. You can choose the default 20% Dot Gain but it might not be the press profile.

What Samsung Printer Drivers work with Lion?

Hello,
Here is some news from Apple :
Samsung Printer Drivers v2.2

What About New Drivers Creative.

there is a lot of complain about the drivers of the audigy2 zs sound card and creative seems to ignore them from what I hear the drivers of the audigy4 is a lot batter and fix most of the problem that the audigy 2 zs have it's look like creative is making new drivers every 6 month so please don't forget your "old" customers and start give as some support and release new drivers for "old models" like the audigy 2 sz...!

I'm guessing you should still be able to keep your current plan. The only thing really being phased out is unlimited data for existing customers. The link below has a table on the 2nd page for the Share Everything plans that apply to basic phones.

Many complains about screen shadows, will they fix it finally? I have to send it back 3rd time...

It's the 3rd time that I have to send iMac back to support for the screen, as again shadows do appear on the top corners of the screen. And is not only me, I know two more people with same issues...
Do you face the same issues, and after visiting support, the issue happened again ?
What else can we do ?

I am about to send it in for the 5th time. Well, the second for this machine, they replaced it back in november and I already had the display changed once. This time I have yellow tinge on the lower-right side of the screen and the usual stains that periodically appear in 3 months time. They say it's an environmental issue, I say it's because of the low quality of the display itself. None of the other displays I have, not even a 2560x1600 Dell display, present this issue. I fear that as long as Apple will not acknowledge the stains issue we'll never see the end of it.

Printer drivers will not delete

I recently upgraded to Windows 8 on a brand new computer. My faithful laserjet 2100 would not work. However, the printer (several copies of it) show up in MS Word, Excel and other programs when I go to print. I replaced the printer with an HP LaserJet
Pro 400 MFP and now I'm getting copies of this printer also when I try to print.
The dilemma is that the laserjet 2100 (several copies of it) are in the print queue when I try to print a document even after I removed the drivers from the system. How do I get rid of these copies?

Marymajik,
It sounds like while you’ve removed the drivers for your old LaserJet 2100, the computer thinks that printer still exists and is defaulting to a generic driver.
The good news is, it’s easy to remove any old printers and any copies that might exist by following these steps:
Go into Devices and Printers by swiping in from the right edge of the screen and tap
Search. (If using a mouse, point your mouse to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, and click
Search.) Type in “Devices and Printers”.
Once the window comes up, you’ll see your printer(s) and any copies.
Right-click on any of the ones you want to remove and select Remove Device.
Continue following step 2 until you’ve removed your old printer, all of its copies and any copies you might see for your new printer
Right-click your new printer and select Set as default printer.
I hope this helps!
