When printer is off i7 laptop is slow

HP 5510 wireless printer, on one Win7 laptop and desktop & one XP laptop.
when the printer i off or laptop out of range responce using laptop lags and the hourglass appears whenever you move or click the mouse, programs are sluggish, nothing other than the printer not being available causes this problem.
The problems disapear when the printer is turned on.

Display lights up when printer is off

Occasionally and recently my DJ130NR will have its display screen light up and show the hourglass icon when the printer is turned off. Nothing else is visible on the screen other than the hourglass icon. It will not respond to any buttons when in this condition. The only way to regain control of the printer is to unplug it for ten seconds or so, replug it, and then all is normal until it does this again, often once a day. This last time I let it sit in this condition overnight to see if it resolved itself, but it did not. The printer performs normally as it always has in all other ways. Is this thing trying to tell me something?

What a nice feature!
Now it will light up the Icons so that you can re-cable with the machine nominally off!

When printing anything off the internet it shrinks the full page into one forth of the full page. How can i print using the enitre page?

Every time I use firefox I can't print full pages off the internet. I will find the page I want, for example, map quest. I push the print button and my printer prints the entire page in one forth of the space. The entire page I printed can be found in the upper left hand corner of the full page, just shrunk down to a fourth of its size. How can i get a full page printed from the internet?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Printing when printer off

Might be a stupid question but if i send email to print when printer is off does it print when printer is switched back on, or does it have to be on to work which kinda defeats the point of calling it remote printing
This question was solved.

Hi,
Print jobs sent to the printer once it turned off will not be printed of course, however the print job will remain on the server up to 24 hours. the job will be printed one the printer turned on and connected to the network during that timeframe:

I can't print wirelessly using Airport Express. I have my HP printer connected to a USB hub, and the hub to the Airport Express, but when I select the HP from the printer list, my MacBook says the printer is "off-line" - even when it is not.

I have my HP printer connected to a USB hub, and the hub to the Airport Express, but when I select the HP from the printer list, my MacBook says the printer is "off-line" - even when it is not. I've tried several USB connectors, and several different ports on my USB hub; same result. I need to have the HP connected to the hub 'cause from there it's connected to our desktop Mac.

Hi,
I am currently replying to this as it shows in the iChat Community.
I have asked the Hosts to move it to Snow Leopard (you should not lose contact with it through any email links you get)
I also don't do Wirelss printing so I can't actaully help either.

Hi I do not want iTunes to open up automatically when I turn on my macbook pro. I tried going to System Preferences Users and Groups Login Items and then I took iTunes off the list but it still opens up automatically when I turn on my laptop.

Make sure you close iTunes before shutdown. And you're quite welcome.

Printing to this printer from a different laptop works fine.
This printer is receiving faxes.

How can I flip my iphone videos on my PC? My videos from my iphone are horrible when I transfer them to my PC. How can I improve the video on my PC? Can I just convert the files to WMV? When the video plays the speed is off, it's half slow-motion

My videos from my iphone are horrible when I transfer them to my PC. How can I improve the video on my PC? Can I just convert the files to WMV? When the video plays the speed is off, it's half slow-motion and staggers into normal play. The clips are slightly cut as well, the clips do not roll continuously. I'm taling about videos that are no more than 2 minutes long. I'm frustrated and I could really use some advice-my kids basketball games is what I'm recording and I'm trying to send them to my family (they are not very tech savvy). Thanks

Not it's only function but one for which it was most admirably suited, which is why I really hope someone can find a work around. I am hoping my post to the Apple feedback may prompt a useful response from Apple and I live in hope that my post here will elicit a useful response from another user. I did not miss the the text at the top of the feedback form but you presumably missed my initial text, 'someone here can explain' or my subsequent 'work around from another user'
Just in case anyone reading this has a large collection of music videos, video podcasts or iTunes U then DO NOT upgrade your iPad to iOS 5. If you are considering purchasing the iPad as a useful mobile device to experience these media organised in your iTunes please don't as you will be wasting your money. (unless someone on this forum knows of a way to undo the mess created by those infallible folks at Apple)
Yes I know it does other things but the purpose I bought it for doesn't work anymore

When printing from web pagess, right margin cuts off print, cant seem to reconfigure. Frames select on print choices does not highlight for printing options. What will help?

Using a Dell Dimension E310 with Windows XP and Dell photo 924 Print/Scan/Copier. When printing from web pages on the browser the right portion of the print is cut off. It appears that the "folders" frame on the left side of the page is always printing with the page, which cuts off the print on the right side of the main page frame by the width of the "folders" frame. When I select the print command, the choice for selecting a particular frame to print is on the drop down menu, but is not highlighted for use. We have had this problem with Firefox for some time. Printing from IE or Word, etc. does not produce the same problem. We like Firefox otherwise. What is the fix?

You're right: most web pages do not use frames, so that option usually is not available.
I don't know why a page that printed just the main content before would change to printing with useless sidebars. Can you try the site in Firefox's Safe Mode and see whether it prints/previews correctly there?
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, try starting Firefox in Firefox
[http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
Does that fix it? If so, the difference usually is caused by one of your add-ons. You can restart the regular way and disable all non-essential add-ons here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons
In particular, check the Extensions category.

Text getting cut off when printing to PDF from Excel

Hello,
     I've seen a lot related to this subject but nothing that shows a real solution.
     Using Excel 2003-sp3 and Adobe Acrobat v.9 Standard, the right half of the last character in the string gets cut off. It prints from excel fine.
     It's not always the text that is the right-most on the page either. An affected PDF file is attached - note the cut off "S" on the last line (NET ASSETS OF GOVERNMENTAL ACTIVITIES).
     Any assistance is appreciated.
Thanks,
Kevin Murphy

Notes cut off when printing, issue with margins

When I print a slide with notes, the notes complete cover the width of the page, flush left and right. My printer cuts the margins automatically (not a bleed), so those portions of the text in the notes gets cut off.
Any way to control the margins, left and right, when printing notes from Keynote?

Keynote print layout is a bit of a mess, and is well commented on by users, it prints differently than previous versions, eg in handouts the slide image is much smaller than previously, in grid, the slides are off the printable area on the left.
We are hoping this is fixed in the round of scheduled updates.

Reader XI has the print button off the screen when on 800x600 resolution

Reader XI has the print button off the screen when on 800x600 resolution as well, how to fix without changing resolution? A user needs the resolution set to that for her eyes.
I see that this was an issue in Reader X and update 10.1.3 resolved it. What was the fix?

The scrollbar appears and works but unfortunately the dialog size is still too big therefore the print button ends up being hidden by the windows taskbar. Could you please make sure that the print dialog size is calculated against the work area (desktop size minus the taskbar, there's a win32 API to get that) rather than the whole desktop to fix the issue?
That would also fix another issue: when the taskbar is sized higher than usual whatever the resolution you have it could still end up covering the print buttons but if you calculate against the work area rather than the desktop area that issue would be fixed as well.
Please don't leave it unfixed because even if the requirements say 1024x768 if you have higher DPI settings or have a taskbar with a non-default size the print button could easily become unreacheable.

Images off colour and overexposed when printing

Hi folks I'm new to the site. I have been using adobe software for a good few years at this point, and i have been trying to solve a problem with my friends Photoshop and illustrator. every time she prints out work, its all off colour and over exposed like the colour preferences are messed up.
When printing a word doc or regular jpg images there is no problem. It only happens when trying to print in Photoshop or illustrator.
I would really like some help
Thanks

What are her color-management settings and practices?
Is she set up to use appropriate color-profiles while designing/editing, using a calibrated/profiled monitor to display the designs or photos in accurate color, and using appropriate settings and profiles for print color-management?
Do the prints come out to match what's displayed if the image is sent to a service - or you print them on your setup?
Does what is displayed in Photoshop match what is displayed in the other apps being printed from?
Has it once worked, and now it doesn't - or is this a new setup?
This is a case where the specifics matter - very much. Color-management settings and practices cannot usually be "guessed" into working. And to make matters worse for those struggling to understand, there is the possibility that there are bugs in printer drivers, bad monitor profiles, etc.
Unfortunately, it's near impossible to teach proper color-management concepts, so that the user can make all the appropriate choices, on a forum.

Connection to HDMI Mini when display is off is slow with ARD 3.x

Anybody notice, well I don't know how you couldn't, that you connect to an HDMI Mini with the display off that the CPU is at 100% and you can't do anything until you turn on the display? It is easy to reproduce. I have my Mini hooked to a Yamaha A2000 stereo and when it is off any connection is so slow it is impossible to do anything until the stereo is turned on. Turn it off and it will go back to 100% cpu usage. I've seen so many posts about the 100% cpu usage I'm wondering if this is the root cause of issues.
Dan

I found out if I unplug the HDMI cable then I can remotely connect. I'm wondering if the stereo I have the mini hooked up to is causing the issue or the mini is the issue. I'll see what setup options I have on the stereo.

When printing off the web, I get very wide margins. a 2-page article, will print in 46 pages!

When printing off the web, I get very wide margins. a 2-page article, will print in 46 pages!

Try resetting your printer margins in '''about:config'''.
Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter. <br />
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
Filter = '''print_margin'''
Right-click and select '''Reset''' for both '''''margin_left''''' and '''''margin_right''''' for that particular printer, and then restart Firefox. If you have ever used other "printers" in that Firefox Profile, you'll have separate groups of preferences listed for each printer.
