Won't print post office labels

My printer won't print U.S. Post Office labels. When I send the label to the printer it does noting and it doesn't even show up in the queue. This is suddenly a new problem as I have repeatedly printed many labels in the past.

For those of you you who are still looking up an answer, I found this:

  • Laserjet 200 color m251 won't print in office picture manager

    Windows 7 pro, service pack 1. HP laserjet 200 color m251 pcl6 will not print in office picture manager or photo viewer. will print using quick time.
    any suggestions?

    Hello BrokerDen.
    I understand your Laserjet 200 printer is unable to print from office picture manager or photo viewer. Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall these programs to see if this resolves your issue?
    Something else you can try is applying an alternate print driver that could be compatible with your programs. Please follow these instructions in this thread. 
    How is this printer connected? Wireless or USB.
    Let me know if this resolves your issue.
    Looking forward to hear from you.

  • Acrobat won't print poster

    Hello!
    I'm having problems printing long images to poster using adobe acrobat X. I'm using a Xerox phaser 7800GX and am printing from a Macbook Pro OS 10.9.4. Both the computer and printer software are the latest versions. I can print a normal 1 page image fit to size of tabloid, but as soon as I print a longer image that needs to be printed across multiple pages the images become extremely small. I've tried reinstalling the drivers, restarting the computer and printer, checking for updates, printing different images, printing from preview, etc. Nothing seems to work, and weirder still is that sometimes it just works fine. Twenty pages will print incorrectly and then suddenly the next page will print perfectly followed by more problem pages.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    First let me state that this is my solution on a Macintosh running 10.7.5 and Acrobat Pro X (with all the latest updates).
    This problem started for me just this last weekend. I have been to every so-called solution that I could find via a Google search and NONE of these "solutions" even by the self-tagged "experts" work. PERIOD!
    I decided to follow one suggestion to install Acrobat Pro 9. However, instead of uninstalling Acrobat Pro X first, I left it installed.
    During the initial startup of Acrobat 9 after installation I was offered the option of installing an Extra feature called Adobe PDF Printer which allows me to "Create Adobe PDF files from any application by printing to Adobe PDF Printer". I opted in to that extra.
    Once Acrobat Pro 9 had started I tested it using one of the PDF files that had failed to print with the dreaded "No pages selected......" error messages. THE FILE PRINTED AS EXPECTED!
    I then decided I would uninstall Acrobat Pro X, but on a whim decided to try to print the same PDF file that had just printed using Acrobat Pro 9 one more time. IT PRINTED!
    All I can figure out is that somehow selecting the option to have Acrobat Pro 9 install the option for allowing other applications to create a PDF repaired something within the Mac operating system. Just a guess.
    Hope this helps someone.

  • Footers won't print in Office or Preview PDF's

    I have had trouble with my HP printer printing footers and printing on the lower portions of the pages.
    I am using Microsoft Word from Office 2008. I am also having the problem when printing pdf's from Preview.
    My printer will print borderless photos some I am assuming that the problem is in a setting. I've looked everywhere I know to look.
    Some help would be appreciated.

  • HP LaserJet P1006 - Won't print mailing labels

    I just got a new computer at work and it won't print my mailing labels.  If I create a word document and print, it will print on the label paper, but if the document is a label template, I keep getting a pop-up telling me to insert the correct paper and hit "go". On my old computer I would get this warning, but when I hit "go" it would proceed to print.  Now, the printer blinks red (like the job is pending), and then the pop-up comes up again telling me to insert the correct paper again. I have attempted to change the settings in Properties to automatically expect label paper, but I keep getting the same warnings.  Please help! I need to resolve this issue because my coworkers will eventually have this same problem as they have all gotten new computers too.
    Thanks!

    Hi there!
    Thanks for your reply with all of your troubleshooting efforts!
    I  have looked into the mailing label printing some more and I would suggest posting the issue on the Avery Help Center to see if they can provide a better answer. We've determined the printer will still print, so I do believe the problem is within printing the mailing labels.

  • SwordfishExpress won't print properly

    My old standby SwordfishExpress (an app used to print post office shipping labels) was working fine under 10.5 but the print quality is terrible with snow leopard. I tried both an Epson and a Canon printer with updated drivers. It prints out so fuzzy that the bar code can't be read at the post office. Any ideas on how to make it work again? thanks

    I guess one workaround is to use SwordfishExpress on my old laptop which still has 10.5 on it, which I did today, but I'd sure like to find a way to get SwordfishExpress to print properly in Snow Leopard.

  • With Firefox 4 I can't print a shipping label off the post office's website (click 'n ship) like I used to with Firefox 3

    I go through all the steps to print out a shipping label when I am on the post office's website for click 'n ship, but the website won't communicate with my printer (when I am in firefox 4). So I switched back to Firefox 3 and have no problems.
    This happened before in the beta version and I had to switch back to Firefox 3, so I was happy to switch again to Firefox 4 when the completed version came out, but the problem came up again and after all the steps were done to complete the shipping label and I hit the print label button, my printer connection window never popped up so that I could click on it to command my printer to print the label. I am a registered user of click 'n ship on www.usps.com

    After waiting forever to talk to some jerk at USPS Click and Ship help, he told me it's an Adobe issue. I didn't ask why it just started happening, but I too just updated to Foxfire 4 recently, it must have something to do with it.
    Open your Adobe reader... under programs...mine is called Adobe Reader X
    Go to "Edit" in top left...click "Properties"...
    Uncheck "display PDF in browser",
    Then restart your computer for it to take effect. I am so thankful it worked!

  • Photoshop CS5.1 won't print if Labels ticked off on print panel

    Just deployed photoshop CS5.1 over the whole office, on various versions of mac OS from 10.6 to 10.9.  In the Output options over on the right side of the print panel, if the "Labels" option is ticked off, then the job never comes out of the printer (konica-minolta C360).  The job appears to go -- everything on the print queue looks like it is communicating with the printer, sending the data, reporting consumables that are low, etc -- just like it prints when the Labels are not ticked.  The only difference is that if "Labels" is ticked then there is no sign at the printer of the job existing.  The data light doesn't flash, the job never appears in the queue, no errors.  It's like somewhere between computer and printer it just gets lost!

  • I'm trying to print onto mailing labels, but it won't line up correctly.  It looks right on the template and the 1st row prints right.  The text keeps moving down a line on each row of labels, preventing it from printing the rest of them correctly.

    I'm trying to print onto mailing labels, but it won't line up correctly.  It looks right on the template and the 1st row even prints correctly.  The text keeps moving down a line on each row of labels, so the rest of it will not print correctly.  

    There are several ways you can go about this.
    1. Most labels come with Word templates or downloadable Word templates. Simply open those in Pages.
    2. Make a table with extra cells for the thin spaces between the labels and skinny those down to match the spaces. ie You have big fat cells for the actually labels and thin narrow empty ones for the gaps.
    3. Make a floating Text box the size of one label, format with dummy text just the way you like it.
    +Menu > Format > Advanced > Define as Placeholder text+
    You can now drag and drop snippets of text, the addresses etc onto those and it will replace them matching the style of the existing text.
    You duplicate that text box into position of the other labels by clicking on it with the command kety held down, then drag copy it up or across with the option and shift keys held down. Fine tune the positions with:
    +Inspector > Metrics > Position+

  • Excel doc created on PC, edited on my Mac, sent back to PC won't print properly.  Do I have to buy Microsoft office for Mac?

    I have to complete their Excel form, send back, they add to it, they want to print it and say it won't print as I see it.  I don't want to buy Microsoft office for Mac just for this... any ideas?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    A couple of ideas... when you exported the document did you check "do compatibility check" for Word? If not that's probably it. Other solutions: - OpenOffice, or NeoOffice play well with MS Word. Either of them are free downloads.

  • Microsoft Office X won't print, everything else does fine

    At work, I have to use MS Office. I am on a Windows network printing through the server to an HP Laserjet 2100 PCL5e. All my apps will print to the printer correctly except MS Office. It states it is printing and the dialog box closes. All that comes out of the printer is blank paper, but with the correct number of pages for the document that was being printed.
    Any thoughts or help?
    Thanks,
    Jamie

    I just installed Snow Leopard and thought everything was just fine, until I went to print MS Office X documents (yes, I still use Office X -- never had a problem with it until now). I got the blank pages too. Fishing around online for info (via Mactopia and other sites), I came across some references to font issues in 10.6 -- specifically that 10.6 installs new versions of several common fonts, including Times New Roman. Apparently the 10.6 version conflicts with the older Microsoft version.
    Solution number one: Just by way of experiment, I replaced all the Times New Roman in a sample document with plain old Times. The document printed with no problem (BTW, I'm not having -- knock on wood -- problems with with wireless printing and printing to my HP Laserjet 1300).
    Solution number two: I searched out the versions of Times New Roman that were contained in various font folders. I trashed the old Microsoft version. On my machine, I had to trash it from two separate locations where it resided: my user/Library/Fonts folder, and also the Application/Office/Fonts folder. The new 10.6 version of the font is in the hard drive (main system)/Library/Fonts folder. I left this one in place. Documents that I opened now in Office X -- even those with Times New Roman, which I use a lot -- printed with no problem.
    NOTE: Times New Roman is not the only font that has these conflicts. Arial, e.g., is also affected, and several others. But, as I said, Times New Roman is one that I have used extensively, in almost every MS Office document I've ever created.
    Bottom line: Try checking the fonts used in your documents. If one of these "conflicted fonts" is used, then substitute another font, or trash the old versions of these fonts, and leave only the Snow Leopard version.

  • I have an hp photosmart c7280 all-in-one series printer won't print. error message, system problem

    I have an HP Photosmart All-in-One C7280 series printer/fax/copier/scanner. I have been having issues with printing for the past few weeks. It is a wireless printer, with a jack into the wall (for fax) and it is plugged into a power source. I never used to have issues with it before, but recently, it won't print when I send a document to it to print. It will print its configuration pages, reports, etc if I select them from the Printer's menu but not when I send a doc to it to print. First it was saying it was offline, but I figured out how to override that by operating as an administrator and selecting "Use Printer Online" from the dropdown menu when I right clicked on the printer from the control panel. But now it says "Error: Printer failed to print document. System error".
    Noooo clue what to do now. This is the only color printer we have so we kind of need it to work. We bought this printer off the shelf at a office store (before I started working here) and so we don't have any designated technichians to work on it. I asked the guy who services our Image Runner Copier to look at it but he had no clue what was wrong with it. Hopefully someone can help?

    goestherain,
    I need to know what operating system you are using to helps narrow troubleshooting a bit, what OS are you running?

  • HP8600 won't print from new HP Envy PC Windows 8.1 PC - only local users

    I have an existing HP 8600 all-in-one printer this was never any problem on a homegroup network with my Windows 7 HP Pavillion destop PC and other portables.  I have just upgraded to a HP Envy Desktop PC, but it has come with Windows 8.1 (Ouch!).  I use this PC to run a home business and apart from having a connection to internet land I want nothing at all to do with have a Windows 'live' account on the new Envy.  The Admin account that I have set up is a local one.  I can't therefore download any application from the 'store' and neither do I want to.
    In the absence of anything from the 'store' and as it wouldn't set-up automatically I have downloaded the original  HP 8600 application and installed that.
    The various office applications 'see' the HP8600 as existing and ready to print to - identified as HP Officejust Pro 8600 (Network) in the list of printers.  However they won't print to it (the print jobs fail) and when I try Printer setup and software from the HP8600 software installed as noted above in the Ultities section it says that it is unable to retreive the computers network name when I enter the printer's IP address when required.
    So much for plug 'n' play.  Though the printer is connected the network wirelessly LOL.   Given that this is HP trying to talk to HP and failing I am baffled - please can someone help. 
    NB.  In camparison he old ancient HP1150 laser hard wired to the PC isn't batting an eyelid and is printing fine from first plug in with no changes!!  I need the HP8600 to function wirelessly though as everyone uses it.

    Hi there @HPJOC , welcome to the forums
    I read your posts about print jobs failing from your Windows 8.1 system, and wanted to reply to you with some of my suggestions.
    First run the Print and Scan Doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for any conflicts that could be causing the issue. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there was a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results. I also would like you to check the Network Info you see in the image below, make sure VPN Connection says "No". Try printing again afterwards.
    Next, try a Clean Boot, restart the PC, and try a print from Notepad and elsewhere if you wish. Go back into the clean boot instructions and enable the start up programs afterwards. I am curious to know if there is something running on your Windows 8.1 system that is blocking the printer from communicating with the printer. This step will let us know.
    Let me know the results

  • HP OfficeJet 6310 All-In-One printer won't print in color with new cartridge

    HP OfficeJet 6310 All-In-One printer  on a iMAC  OSX version 10.9.5 system
    Hello,
    As I don't print in color much but had need to I discovered my printer not printing in color.  I trouble shooted and even replaced with an new HP95 new from Office Depot ( I never buy refilled).  The printer still won't print color but it advances the paper as if it was printing - just no ink on paper.  I have cleaned thoroughly the ink jet heads, cartridge area, and run all the alignment and printer utilities.    The test page print does not show color either.   I have no error messages.  Don't know what else to do.
    thanks

    Hi there @dhengr!
    Thanks for contacting the HP Forums!
    I can see your having a print quality issue with your HP OfficeJet 6310.  I should be able to provide documentation that will help locate a resolution.  You mentioned you have already tried another  HP95 tri-color cartridge with no resolution.  I also noticed you said that the quality report from the printer also has no color ink.  
    If a stand alone test report is performed from the front of the printer such a printhead cleaning or print quality report and there is no color on the page then you are likely looking at a hardware issue within the printer.  I have provided a document regarding Missing, Faded, or Dull Colors on the HP Officejet 6310 All-in-One Printer.  If you follow the document from start to finish and still have the same issue then I would recommend contacting our HP tech support via phone.  They deal with hardware warranty and replacement options.
    Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region. http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-phone-assist.html
