Won't print more than 1 copy of a page

After updating my work imac to 10.4.4 our HP LaserJet 3700n and the HP LaserJet 2100TN would not print more than one copy of a page even though it was set up to print multiple copies, i.e., 20 of page 1. I found I had the same problem at home printing from a G-4 to an Apple Laser Writer 360. The printing works fine but I have to keep sending the print command for whatever number of copies I need.
I downloaded the most current printer drivers from HP (they weren't that recent), reinstalled the software, but it didn't help.
I updated to OS 10.4.5 yesterday, but that didn't help either.

I don't use spell catcher.
I found a workaround posted elsewhere in the Apple discussion forum. When going through the printing dialog boxes, select Preview and print whatever number of pages I need from that window. It works fine so I'll use that method until a future Mac OS X update fixes the problem.
The security update for OS X on 3-1-06 didn't fix the problem even after I repaired permissions.
Thanks for responding.

  • Hp laserjet pro 200 My won't print more than 1 file at a time

    My hp laserjet pro 200 m251 won't print more than 1 file at a time. Any ideas?

    Hi @nocastaway,
    I see by your post that you can't print multiple copies. I can help you with this.
    From the application your printing from, go to File, Print, Number of copies select 2. Uncheck Collate. You can now change the number of copies. Collate should now stay unchecked.
    Try printing the multiple page document again.
    You might have to disable all the startup items, to see if there is another program causing this issue.
    How to use MSCONFIG. Click on the Startup tab and disable all.
    Test the printer.
    Then go back in and enable all from the Startup tab.
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor if you are still having issues. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
    What applications have you tried?
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • Printer won't print more than one copy

    Ever since I got my new computer, I have not been able to print more than 1 document at a time from Microsoft Works.  When I need to print over 500 hundred copies every few months, this is a big problem for me.  Any other programs will print as many as I need except Works.  My computer has Windows 7 and my printer is an HP Deskjet F4480 series.  How can I get this fixed?

  • Large pdf(40MB) with 600 pages color quality is poor if i print more than 1 or 2 pages at a time.

    I have a 40MB PDF file with over 600 pages of color images. If i print each page one at a time, there is no issue whatsoever with the quality, but if i print say 5 pages, the 4th and 5th page and any subsequent page will look like rubbish. In general, just not the same color quality as before. The Konica Minolta printer doesn't seem to be at fault here because like i mentioned, this problem does not occur if i print individual sheets, just if i print more than 5 or so.
    Printing individual sheets in this instance, however, is not a real solution because in all the job will have many thousand pages. What do i do? Any one here experience a similar problem?

    You were able to catch me whilst my Konica Minolta tech was here.
    This is my take on his diagnosis,
    The c353 while capable of quality output is not exactly a robust production level machine.
    Without the aid of a RIP, all the processing needs to happen either in memory or it may have a hdd. Does the machine have a hard drive?
    In either case, you are running out of memory.
    Changing the printers properties on spooling may aid in completing the job.
    He mentioned sending the job as raster. Print as Image from Acrobat's Advanced tab would do that, but I think you would cripple your computer doing such. Try it; be prepared to go out to lunch or something while it churns away.

  • My HP Office jet Pro 8500A all in one printer-A9​10a has stopped printing more than 1 or 2 pages

    My printer (wireless) has all of a sudden stopped printing more than 2 pages from a multiple page document. Any suggestions/

    HI RODA80,
    Welcome to the HP support forums.  I understand that when you are printing a multiple page document on your Officejet Pro 8500a that only the first 2 pages print.
    To better understand the issue would you please provide some further information:
    1)    What operating system are you using (Windows 7, Mac 10.8, or Windows 8, etc)?
    2)    Is this happening for all multiple page documents or just one?
    3)    Has a default of only printing the first 2 pages been accidentally set?
    Thank you.

  • Won't print more than one copy

    I have a 6001xi and today I'm asking it to print 3 copies of a Word page and all I get is one.  Everytime.  of course I have some heavy printing to do today, so the 3 page request is just the beginning.  Help

    Thanks Peter!  I saw a section while trying to print the file that said Print Dialog.  Do you happen to know what setting it should be on?  I'm not very familiar with print dialog. 
    Do you think I need to update the printer drivers?  Also what setting should the printer drivers be on?
    Thanks again for your suggestions!

  • My HP ENVY 4502 won't print more than a few pages at a time

    I'm having real trouble printing from my HP ENVY 4502. Over the last couple of months whenever I have tried to use double sided printing, when the printer comes to printing on the reverse side of the page an on screen message appears saying "Error printing on HP ENVY 4502" and the printer cancels the document half way through the page. More recently when I have tried to print multiple copies of a document on a single side the same message appears after 2-3 pages and the printer cancels the document.
    I'm not sure what to do about this - I have tried various different settings on the printer but none seem to make a difference. Printing is now becoming very time consuming and I'm also wasting a lot of paper as a result.
    Many thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Jamille,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I have a couple of questions for you for starters:
    What Operating System are you using Windows or Mac? What version? If you do not know the Operating System you are using, please visit this website. Whatsmyos.
    What happens if you plug in a USB 2.0 printer cable and print instead of wireless? Does the same thing happen?
    I would suggest to go through one of these guides: (depending on the Operating System you are using.)
    Print Jobs Stuck in Print Queue (Windows).
    Print Jobs Stuck in Print Queue (Mac OS X).
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I print more than one picture per page?

    In the previous edition of iPhoto I could print several pictures on one piece of photo paper and not have to waste one whole piece of paper on one small picture.  The latest version seems to print one photo in the middle of the page.  How can I chane that?

    Start the print process and click on the Custom layout.  At the bottom you can set the size of the image desired and see how many photos can be placed on the page size selected.

  • Does anyone know how to print more than one picture on a page?

    I am having trouble finding a way to print more than one image per page with Aperature? Do they have other options like photoshop?
    Jim

    What I have done is use the book pages with my own layout.
    The problem with this is you are hit and miss to get exact final dimensions for each of the images. You need to print and then measure. I used my laser printer to not waste ink and paper, then the Lineups are ok. Once you have your template sizes correct, then you are fine and it is repreducable for any picture package combo you want.
    I have fussed with it so I can get 2 5x7s on a page with the correct dimensions.
    The photobox property popup has aspect ratio, alignment and should also have a DIMENSION option. This would be super as the rest of the book page layout is pretty flexible.
    Good luck.

  • Printing more than one picture on a page?

    I love the iPhoto '08 so far, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to print more than one photo per page. Here's what I'd like to do:
    I've chosen four photos and resized each to be printed optimally at 4"x5", let's say. Can I take those photos and lay them out on an 8.5"x11" page within iPhoto? When I've done this is the past, I've resorted to using "Pages". But there must be a way to do this using only iPhoto, no?
    So, I want four photo squares arranged in a grid, printed on a single piece of photo paper.
    Thanks in advance...

    OSXI86
    Select the four photos (no need to resize first) in iPhoto and click Print at the bottom of the iPhoto library window -- in the lower right of the print dialogue window select the paper size (letter for your question) and below that the print size (custom and set to 4.0 x 5.0 for your questions) and you will see a four up preview in the preview window. There are a number of neat other options to choose on this page too including borders, the printer you want to use, etc.
    Then click Print in the lower right hand corner and select any printer specific options you want on the next dialog page - then click print and you will have your four photos on one page.
    Enjoy!

  • Ckeck Writer(XML), more than 1 check per page

    Is it possible to print more than one check per page using check writer (XML)?. Preview looks fine (3 checks per page) but the output of the process that actually prints ( Payroll File Reporter ) keeps sending 1 check per page.
    Thanks in advance,
    Jose

    To do a multiple records per page merge you use only one set of placeholders, in the upper left position. ID will duplicate everything as many times as will fit according to the spacing you set up in the merge options.

  • How do I print more than one copy of a photo at a time?

    I am trying to add a photo to a card, but I can only print one at a time.  How do I print more than one copy of a photo at a time?

    Do you want to print more than one card or more than one photo on a card?
    To print multiple photos on one page select the photos and print, select the printer, paper size, photo size (obviously the photos will have to be sized so the number you want will fit inclusing a small border) and click customize - in teh settings select multiple photos per page (the preview will reflect your selection) and click print - make any printer specific selections and click print to print
