Where are the printer settings?

I note that this has been asked before but apparently never answered. The printer dialog box in OS 10.4.8 no longer includes a pop up menu for printer settings. As a result I cannot use Epson's Print CD, which worked fine on OS 10.3.9 How can one specify print quality, etc?

That's my point - there is no "printer settings" in the dialog box. Under "copies and pages" etc, there is an item for "printer qualities" which I guess is meant to substitute for the settings, but there is no option which allows me to tell the printer that I'm printing on a CD, and the printer simply won't respond to the "print" instruction.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 Wireless - Where are the printing shortcuts?????

    HP Officejet Pro 8600 Wireless Printer
    Windows 7
    Where are the printing shortcuts?????
    I just replaced a canon printer that died that had the concept of PROFILES, so that I could setup a PROFILE for each type of printing, i.e. 4X6 photos/documents/5X7 photos.  So it was easy for our family to print, they would pick each setting.
    Now with latest driver for 8600 there are NO way to save a set of settings for a printer.   I have seen some old discussions on this but I just can't believe HP doesn't have this type of functionality in their drivers.  I don't need the ePrint and all the other bogus stuff installed with the 8600 driver, but I DO NEED the ability to save different sets of printing options so I don't have to remember, borderless or not, landscape or not, etc and keep wasting photo paper/ink/regular paper with incorrect options.
    Here is another posting with similar points -> Customers are NOT getting full print functionality.  We don't care about the extra software, it is minimal.  Full functionality includes the ability to create profiles for different printing situations so that the user can easily choose that profile (and therefore all the myriad settings for that profile).  What HP has done is give us ONE profile, essentially, and every time you want to do something different, you have to change that ONE profile.  How is that helping?
    As I said, if I want to switch from a normal printing job (e-mail, web page, etc.) which uses my ONE setting, and then want to print a 4x6 photo, I have to remember to change at least 6 different settings.  With the shortcut, I would select my "borderless photo" shortcut, and it would automatically switch paper trays, size, color, quality, you name it.  Now you force me to change that each and every time.
    If someone can explain why this is considered full functionality I would be extremely grateful.

    Hello,
    I am sorry you are having trouble with your print experience.
    I am going to make some assumptions here, which could be wrong in your case, but might help others.  Since you mention printing from Windows7 and ePrint in the same thread, can I assume you are trying to print using the HP ePrint driver for windows (www.hp.com/go/eprintsoftware) ?  The ePrint driver also comes preinstalled on all HP laptops and pcs now, so maybe you made a recent pc purchase and therefore have the ePrint driver installed?
    The goal of the ePrint windows driver currently has a lot less to do with providing the hundreds of print features and settings that the full featured, product specific print drivers provide.  The goal is to enable customers to be able to print to any recent or new HP printer through a number of different connection paths from a single installed print driver / print queue.  Once the ePrint driver is installed, printing with that driver will dynamically find direct network printers, cloud enabled printers, public print locations, direct wireless printers, etc., and create the correct print format depending on the print path taken.  If the printer is ePrint cloud enabled and has a good internet connection, the printer and the pc do not have to be in the same location.  For example, you can print from home to your printer at work.  You can send photos of the kids to your mom's printer in another state, etc.  The ePrint solution is also good for the traveling worker who just wants to send the occasional print job to the nearest network or wireless direct printer without having to find and install another print driver for each new printer.  One driver, one queue and you can print to any recent or new HP printer.
    The ePrint driver has a few important print settings that customers may want to use (copies, duplex, grayscale, etc).  More may be added over time depending on demand.
    BTW, because the ePrint driver does not have a ton of print settings to handle, the rendering of print jobs is as simple and efficient as possible and should not bog down your pc.
    If you want all the bells and whistles in the print driver experience and just want to print to a single printer you can download and install the product specific print driver from hp.com  
    I hope that helps out a few people who may be wondering what the purpose of ePrint is!!
    Good luck.
    I am an HP employee, but these are my own thoughts and suggestions

  • Experts - where are the main settings for country currency settings

    Hi
    where are the main settings for different country currency settings.
    Ex:
    us,canada and europe customers us$, canada $, europe euro,
    How the pricing will effect for different country customers?
    Any one can help me on this.
    Any documents on thes please send to [email protected]
    Thanks
    Kris

    You can find this in the following path.
    SPRO->GENERAL SETTINGS> SET COUNTRIES>DEFINE COUNTRIES-->
    Here countries have an ISO CODE
    Then
    SPRO->GENERAL SETTINGS>CURRENCIES-->CHECK CURRENCY CODES
    Here ISO codes mapped to currencies.
    If CCode currency = Customer master currency, then transactions will happens in that currency
    If CCode currency<> Customer master currency, then the exchange rate will come into play to convert customer currency to company code currency.
    And anway if you want a different currency from the country currency, you can mention that in ccode configuration. The presence of currency in company code configuration is must and hence configuration at country level is not needed I think
    Hope this helps.
    Rewards pls

  • Where are the print drivers found?

    I have a Brother HL 2040 laser printer. THe Brother website has a version 2.2 driver for this printer. I downloaded and installed. When I add the printer I keep getting version 1.4 driver.
    Can someone tell me where are the drivers found on my iMac?
    Also I am trying to get this to print via a Linksys wireless print server. Do I use the ip address for the print server or the printer when adding this.
    I tried using the print server IP but I get a "printer paused" issue. I think I need the new print driver.
    thanks in advance for any help.

    I have not gotten the driver to update to the newest version. I deleted the Brother Folders as mentioned in the replies, no joy. No matter what I do it ends up 1.4 not 2.0.
    Version 1.4 worked OK for a USB connection, so I went forward with trying to get the network connection going. By trying every combination available I got it to work.
    What HP jetdesk-socket has to do with my printer...escapes me. But that combination with version 1.4 driver works.
    I will leave well enough alone.
    I have 2 other computer to update to SL.....maybe.

  • Where is the Print Settings Dialog?

    Hello everyone,
    I was trying to print sheet music from my Sibelius application. It would not print the final bar. I changed the black ink on my Canon i850 and updated the driver. Still the final bar would not print.
    I posted my issue on the Sibelius discussion site and was told to open the File>Print dialog, go to the Print Settings dialog, then set "substitute resolution" to 300, if I am using Mac OS 10.4.
    I am using Mac OS 10.4.6. I tried to follow the instructions but I couldn't because I could not find a Print Settings dialog.
    How can I find 'Substitute resolution' in my computer?

    Hi there,
    When you click File you should have 'Page Setup' and 'Print' as menu options.
    If you select 'Print' you will see the print dialog window. If you do not see a menu that is defaulted to 'Copies & Pages', then the application may have what is called a Simplified Print dialog, similar to what you get with Preview. But you should have an option to select Advanced, which will open the normal print window. Here you should be able to select your resolution, depending on which driver you are using for the i850.
    The other thing I would check is File > Page Setup. If the sheet is set to A4 but your printed page is set to Letter, then you can loose about 20mm (which is close to an inch) from the bottom of the print (FYI - A4 is 297mm long while Letter is 279mm).
    Regards,
    Paul

  • Where are the printer profiles in Mt. Lion 10.8.5? I want to install paper manufacturer's profiles.

    I want to install paper manufacturer's profiles. All of my existing profiles were carried over when I upgraded to 10.8 but i do not find anything like the previous Color Sync folder. Where do I put the new profiles? And why can't Spotlight find the existing ones? BTW, I can't find them on my iMac running 10.7.5 either.

    Where are the rest?
    Depends. For Epson printers, they're in the /Library/Printers/EPSON/ folder, and that itself varies. For the Stylus Pro 4900, they're in that folder, and then another couple of subfolders deep in InjetPrinter2/ICCProfiles. Sometimes they're tucked away in a .plugin or .framework file within the EPSON folder, or one of its subfolders. In short, they're not always easy to find. At least not with Spotlight.
    To make your search way easier, download the free EasyFind. Turn on the check boxes to look within Package contents, and Invisible Files & Folders. There's nothing on the drive that can hide from you. Then do a search for .icc .
    But unless your objective is to remove a long list of profiles you'll never use, there's no need to find these other obscure locations OS X lists profiles from. Just put the ones you want to use in either the /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder (if you want all users of that Mac to have access to the profiles), or the ~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder (the tilde means your user account). Only you will have access to the profiles if placed there.

  • Where are the Printing Presets in Acrobat located on Mac?

    I have just upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.3 from Snow Leopard 10.6.8. All of my applications seem to be working fine, however my printing presets in Acrobat Pro X 10.1.13 are missing. Can I restore them from a Time Machine backup and if so where would they located? There seem to be a number of Library files related to Acrobat, but I'm not sure which ones contain the printing presets. I'm printing to an Epson Stylus Pro 3880. I don't want to have to re-create all the printing presets for that machine if I don't have to. I'm hoping someone can give me some advice on how to restore my much needed presets.

    Kelvin:
    Did you save the presets and give them a unique name so they could be selected at a later time?
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Where Are the Printing Presets?

    I've got several printing presets created. I select a photo and click the print icon. In the print dialog that appears there is a Printer drop down menu and Presets drop down menu. Despite having several presets only Standard is in the drop down menu. When I click on Print the next print dialog appears and I can choose the presets from that drop down menu.
    What's the use for the preset drop down menu in the main print dialog? Is this caused by the Epson driver. I'm using an R200.
    Thanks

  • Where are the Image Settings?

    In Adobe's Bridge Reference, it says, "Here are some tips for automating the processing of camera raw image files:
    When you record an action, first select Image Settings from the Camera Raw Settings menu [icon appears here] in the Camera Raw dialog box. In this way, the settings particular to each image (from the Camera Raw database or sidecar XMP files) are used to play back the action."
    Problem is, I cannot find the Camera Raw Settings menu anywhere in the Camera Raw dialog box, and I cannot find anywhere in the documentation where it tells you how to do what they're recommending here. I'm confused as to whether the action recording takes place in Photoshop (most likely), Bridge, Camera Raw, or the Image Processor. I was under the impression that, of these four, actions can only be created in Photoshop, but now I'm not so sure, since this paragraph says that while the action is being recorded it has to be selected from the Camera Raw dialog box. WHERE DOES ONE FIND "Image Settings" IN THE CAMERA RAW DIALOG BOX?
    Edit: Actually, I found the Image Settings selection, but it is still unclear how I can incorporate it into an action. Can I invoke the Camera Raw dialog box while recording an action? if so, how?

    Record an Action after opening a file into Photoshop, so the Action contains no Open command but it does contain Save and Close.
    Run the Action in a Batch with disabled 'Override Action "Open" Commands' and enabled 'Override Action "Save As" Commands'.

    Since updating to lighroom 3 using a MacPro running Snow Leopard I seem to be missing all the 'basic' settings on my develop module namely exposure, white balance etc.  All the other adjustment settings are there.  Any idea how to fix this?

    When you are in the develop module, right-click in the right-hand panel and make sure there is a checkmark next to the basic settings.  If there isn't just click on basic settings.  Then it will show in the panel.  The different areas are designed so that you can hide any that you don't use.

  • VICE-gnome: Where are the video settings?

    I'm trying to get vice-gtkglext from the aur to work.
    I managed to build it but the result has all video settings missing: No 'double size', no 'video settings' and ALT+D for fullscreen just replaces the menu with black borders.
    I haven't use vice in a long time so it might have changed but I distrinctly remember those settings. As it is I can't get anything bigger than the tiny default window of some 400 by 300 pixels.
    Is there a problem with my build or has VICE just hidden the video settings?
