Xerox Printer prints, but out comes pages and pages of garbled information!

My office Xerox (DocuPrint 210) printer isnt on the list. And i have downloaded the drivers and installed them but it doesnt show up on the list either. However before i upgraded to SL, the printer worked perfectly! i forgot what settings i put and what driver i used to get it working correctly.. I dont have a backup and i've wasted a few rims of paper just trying to print one test page.. I've tried all the Generic drivers and some dont work, some just print out garbage. HELP!

Ahh.. finally got it solved after going rounds and rounds of useless printing.
Tried everything from reseting settings, deleting folders, reinstalling, downloading the drivers from the xerox website.. bla bla all didnt work for me.
Went here;
http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs
downloaded these..
1. http://www.openprinting.org/download/printdriver/macosx/gplgs-8.64so-ub.dmg
2. http://www.openprinting.org/download/printdriver/macosx/foomatic-rip-4.0.2.211.d mg
3. http://www.openprinting.org/download/printdriver/macosx/hpijs-3.9.2-ub.dmg
They must be installed in the order above or they wont install.
Then add new printer, IP, put in the IP, driver selected HP Laserjet Series PCL 6 CUPS. and it printed like new again.
I so thought i needed to throw away SL and downgrade back to Leopard.

Officejet j6415 winows 7prints half pages and pages of gibberish since reinstalled printer software

When reinstalling the printer software, there is always a fatal error with no ID number. I have tried all the troubleshoot options for the installation but they do not work. My printer can still print fully (rarely) but mostly prints half pages and pages of gibberish. There are no error messages on the printer. Help!

Ever since I installed MAVERICK, nothing now works, Flash Player won't run, printer works but scanner will not and the computer runs so slow. Any help anywhere?

wqn02h, first thing I would do is use Disk utility to repair permissions. Once this is done. Make sure you have the latest versions of the software you use. Also, check the manufacter of your printer/scanner for updated software. If they don't have updated software there are 3rd party alternatives that will work.

How to avoid borderline coming between page and page in Htmlcss format

Hi there
I run a report output in HTMLcss format. Output is coming correctly.But what my problem is in the output i am getting some borderline (thick black line) between page and page. While i print the html i am getting this line at end of each page. What is this line and how to remove it htmlcss. i want printout without this line.I am using reports 10g version.
thanx in advance
prasanth a.s.

The line is caused by the default HTML code placed in the After Page Value property found in the Report Escapes section of the report property palette. Clear the value to delete the line

"Data Page" and "Page Forward"

Friends!
What is the difference between "Data Page" and "Page Forward"?
Thanks for all!

Here is a nice trick for you.
Right-Click on an element in the component palette and choose help.
You'll get the explanation there.

Diference between "Page" and "Page Forward"

Friends,
what is the differene between "Page" and "Page Forward" in the Struts component palette?
Thanks!

"Page" represents a page (like JSP, UIX, or HTML page)
The user would browse this page by typing something like:
http://somesite/someapp/somepage.jsp
"PageForward" is a Struts action whose only job in life is to forward control to an underlying page.
The user would browse this page by typing something like:
http://somesite/someapp/somepage.do
Since in an MVC architecture, typically you want all browser requests to go through your controller layer, that means that you typically don't want a user to short-circuit the controller layer by jumping straight to a *.jsp page (for example, by bookmarking that page in their browser's "favorites" list)
So, does that mean you should always use page forwards?
I personally don't think so, although some Struts developers may have a differing opinion than me.
Even if you create a page forward as a "front" for the underlying *.jsp page, if the user knows the URL to the *.jsp page directly, they can still short-circuit your controller layer.
So, what's really the best practice?
Put your JSP pages in a subdirectory of your ./WEB-INF directory as the BC4J Toy Store demo illustrates. The WEB-INF directory and any subdirector thereof, is by the J2EE specifications NOT BROWSEABLE from the outside of the J2EE web container. So, doing this prevents users from ever being able to browse your JSP pages.
If you adopt this practice, then you will typically have a Struts diagram that consists of Actions which forward to Pages (that are under ./WEB-INF). Even though the JSP pages under ./WEB-INF are not externally browseable, it is legal for code in the web tier (like your Struts controller layer code) to forward to such pages.
Net net, with this best practice, you are always in control.

Can't print from PS or PSE but can from Aperture and Pages

I suddenly am unable to print photos from my iMac running 10.6.6 with Photoshop CS5 or PSE 9 to my Epson SP 2400 (FireWire on the iMac) or 3880 (either connected to my MacPro and addressed through WiFi, or connected to the iMac thru USB). Everything seems to go normally until I press Print, then nothing happens. When I select Preview or PDF instead of Print, I get a blank page. I THINK the problem may have begun only after I updated from 10.6.5, but I'm not certain, and it could have begun only after I upgraded to PSE 9 but again I'm not certain. Prior to making any changes, printing worked normally with PS CS5 and PSE 8 under 10.6.5. Drivers are up-to-date.
Printing a text-only document from Pages on the iMac to a WiFi-connected laser printer works fine.
Printing a text-only document from PSE 9 or on the iMac to a WiFi-connected laser printer, curiously, also works fine.
Printing a photo from PSE 8 on my MacBook Pro updated to 10.6.6, thru WiFi, to the 3880 on the MacPro, works fine.
Printing from Aperture on the iMac to the 2400 thru USB works fine.
Printing from Aperture on the MacPro to the 3880 thru USB works fine.
Printing from Aperture on the iMac thru WiFi to the 3880 on the MacPro works fine.
As I write this, I'm recognizing for the first time that the problem seems to be in printing a photo either with PSE 9, or with PSE 9 installed on the same computer from which I'm trying to print with CS5. Rather than not post this until I've done some experimentation (like installing PSE 9 on the MacBook), I'll go ahead and post first and hope to hear from the Voice of Experience.
Anyone?

Re the driver affecting pdf printing, the answer is no. The print to pdf uses internal processes and is not impacted by the vendors driver. So given that Rosetta was no help and Word is also failing, then it suggest that the core printing system is at fault. Although the ability to CS2 to print is a 'curve-ball'. The CS2 suite does things differently when it comes to printing but it still eventually uses the core printing system to get the file to the printer.
So, some things to try....
1. Install the 10.4.9 Combo update. If you did the sequential update from 10.4.8 to 10.4.9, then this update can fill missing holes.
2. Get Fixamac's Printer Setup Repair utility to see if it can identify any issues.
3. Get Gutenprint 5.0.0 and try adding a printer using one of these drivers.

Canon MX870 will print wirelessly but will not scan and can't launch EX navigator

My laptop recently crapped out on me the hard drive failed. It's an old Macbook pro vintage with 4gig memory and running OS X maverics. After I got a new hard drive put in and restored my computer using a time machine backup I noticed the Tech had gone ahead and installed a newer operating system 10.9.2 and now I cannot get my Canon pixma MX870's software to work. After going to the Canon site and downloading newer drivers and wrangling with it for three hours I finally was able to get it to print wirelessly somehow, don't ask me how. But it will print wireless however it still will not scan even if I use image capture it sees no printer available and the ex navigator software keeps showing an error message it cannot launch! How bogus! Macs have always just worked period. No problem but now even when I go back to my old install disc for the Canon pixma MX870 it says that the software is not supported by this operating system .....REALLY... this printer is only about three years old! I'm shocked that apple could actually go ahead and make new versions of maverics that don't support printer software from two years ago..... REALLY you're kidding right! Whats next you won't support software from two months ago! I guess we have to just buy a new printer every month.
This machine is starting to remind me of a Windows laptop what a nightmare. Jobs must be rolling in his grave. This is just utterly pathetic. This is the beginning of the end for Apple. I've always been impressed with how easy it is to use apple stuff but this is the second time I've updated my operating system only to find I have to go through **** just to get the freakin' printer to work. Come on guys somebody show me an easy fix here and if any body says it's the printer companies responsibility to update their drivers and software I think I'm going to puke. I have already downloaded the newest Canon software for the MX870 and it can't launch I was able to get the printer to print but can't get the scanner to work and the solutions menu is now useless.

Well you are right Steve my complaint is with Canon for not making it easier to install their necessary updates if you upgrade your OS system but it seems that when Apple is constantly making new upgrades available they might want to add in the heads up "OH by the way, if you install this new OS it's likely your printer won't work any more if it's more than three years old." along side the constant "Updates are available for your computer" they should really have it read "Updates are available for your computer, proceed at your own risk" No I'm sorry the whole system is geared towards making people get so frustrated that they eventually give up and buy a new printer. I'm not sure what 5 hours of my time is worth but I am sure that if were getting paid by the hour it would be enough to buy a new Canon comparable to the MX870. So by the way if other people are having this same problem, which of course thousands of them are, the solution is first download the newer driver, then download the new wireless setup assistant and then figure out how to use it (good luck with that), it took me about two hours just to find the access points on the printer and to be honest I just got lucky eventually. Then you must download the newer "Scan Gear" software if you want to scan. But it seems that the new "Scan Gear" software got my whole solutions menu to start working again so there you go, you can be a white night for somebody else who is having this same problem. I must admit that after wrangling for hours I continued to go back to the forums and eventually found a link to the canon software update page provide by some very nice girl who was very helpful for some other guy and the link took me to the same page I had been to several times already but I then downloaded the "Scan Gear" software and was up and running again. So thank you to that nice girl and in the spirit of her helpfulness I offer this to the thousands of other poor bastards that cannot get their MX870 to scan

Go there and download the "Scan Gear" software that is for OS 10.9

I have a DeskjJet 9650 - When printing my resume button comes on and nothing is printed.

it goes thru the process but doesn't make it pass the intial phase and the resume light comes on and i have to disconnect the printer. i have tried removing the printer and reinstalling and no luck thus far

Please read this post then provide some details. What operating system? Are there any error messages or blinking lights on the printer or error messages on the computer screen?

Printing only blank pages and Page setup dialog box is black

When I go to firefox - Print - Print preview - Page setup OR
Firefox - Print - page setup
This dialogue box is black. I can't move or adjust it. Nothing is on that screen.
When I print a webpage (ctrl P, or Firefox, print) nothing is printing.
I tried a suggestion of resetting by following the instructions here. That did not work.
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problems_printing_web_pages#Reset_printer

I just experienced this problem, and stumbled upon the cause and the fix. When I went to "File" and then "Print Preview" I was getting a "black" screen where the preview should have been. I tried the suggested fixes related to about:config printer settings and add-on's, etc... but it did not help.
Then, I looked at the "Page Set-up" when I was on the "Print Preview" page. The bottom margin (for whatever strange reason... have no clue) was set at a huge number of inches... like 43801.4 or some such. I changed it back to 0.3 inches... fixed it. Can print just fine now.
So... if all else fails: check your margin settings on page set-up.

The document shows in the printer viewer, but it is paused and will not print.

Hi, when ever I try to print anything, the doc is in the viewer but is always paused, and will not print. I've tried to restart, but it will not do it.
Any advice?

Hi, are you referring to a problem in trying to print via the ePrint service e.g.. sending an email to your printer's email address, or printing directly from your PC/laptop?

Logo Visible in Print Preview, but not in pdf and hard copy

Hi,
We have uploaded a logo to be shown in the footer. We are able to see the logo in the print preview, but when we print the invoice (SAP Script), it is not seen in the hard copy. We tried by saving it as a pdf, even in the pdf, it is not displayed.
We are on SAP 4.7
Please help.
Thanks in advance.
Mick

hi,
Am not sure what the exact issue could be, but i am expecting there may not be sufficient space to fit the logo. I suggest you to check the output by placing the logo in header whether its coming or not in hardcopy, that may help you.

Query to list out shared components and page number that used them

Hi all,
I created report queries and report layouts under apex shared components for BIP printing purpose. To match them correctly, I always make sure query and layout files have the same name.
But as the nubmer grew, I like to know if there is a systematic way to query out the queries and associated layout files plus the page number that have print buttons point to these shared components. Can you help ?
Thanks
Munshar

Hi Munshar,
you can use APEX Views to query this information.
To get an overview on what Views are available go to Application Builder and choose "APEX Views" from the right sidebar.

Working with master pages and page layout, what I have been doing wrong

I have worked on customizing the page layout and the master pages for a couple of site collections.
But now I read two restrictions which I was not following 100%:-
I should avoid directly modifying any default templates, and instead of that I should take a copy and modify the copy. So that any future updates will not override my modifications.
Also I should avoid directly modifying the .aspx files, and instead of that I should edit the html file which will automatically reflect on the .aspx files.
So currently I have these cases inside my SharePoint sites:-
Inside my enterprise wiki site collection, I have being modifying the Enterprisewiki.aspx page layout, for example I added new columns such as Page title and I remove the page rating, also the chnaged the color and format for the page fields.
Inside my team site I took a copy of the seatle.master master page (I name it seatle_copy.master)and I apply my modification to the seatle_copy.master directly and not inside the .html file. Even I do not have a html version for the modified seatle_copy.master?
So can anyone advice how I can fix these two issues. For the first issue how I can make sure that my modifications to the EnterPriseWiki.aspx page layout will not get override during any future update.
also how I can generate an html version for my current seatle_copy.master file so that I can modify the seatle_copy.html instead of the seatle_copy.master in the future?
Please can anyone advice?

Hi johnjohn123,
1. I would definitely make a copy of the EnterpriseWiki.aspx page layout and make changes to that. You can then set your pages to use your custom page layout. Typically, I provision these via Visual Studio and a module for uploading them to the SharePoint
master page gallery.
2. For the master page, the html version is new to 2013 and is meant to simplify branding, however, it's not required. You can still work within master pages and provision those via features if you'd like. The key is to create your own master page and never
modify the default.
If you need code samples for any of the above, let me know and I can supply it.

When is Pages 5 going to be fixed? I require alternating gutters for facing pages, and Pages 5 refuses to do what the previous version of the program did. Quite frankly, this is a problem that MUST be addressed by Apple programmers!

I said it all in the title of this discussion.

infinitedot
Menu > File > Export > Pages '09
Apple could do lots of things but doesn't.
Peter Thomson
You have another issue. I have both Pages '09 v4.3 and Pages 5.1 running fine on Mavericks OSX 10.9.1.
Pages 5 is slow but neither Pages crashes.
If you are getting crashes you need to validate your fonts and check which documents are having the problem.
It also helps to know versions and how you installed your software.
Create your own post, don't jump onto another.
