PrtScn Key Actually Bringing Up The Print Dialog Box To Print?
Jan 23, 2013
I'm on Windows 7 and have run into the annoyance of my PrtScn key actually bringing up the print dialog box to print. It still copies the screen to the clipboard for a paste into paint, but I can't figure out why it's bringing up the dialog to print or how to turn that off. I have seen it before maybe 8 years ago on Windows XP but do not remember what was done to correct it. When I try to search, I just find posts about it not working or how to turn the whole screen capture function off for the PrtScn button.
I've been using various print drivers for various locations with success for a month with my new laptop. Today, all drivers gone.Loading new ones doesn't work. Print spooler is not "started;" it starts successfully, then is not "started" next time I look.Other possibly relevant information: HP 1020, HP MX 340 at home office.Tried: multiple restarts of print spooler, multiple reboots, troubleshooters, HP detect and download drivers?
(Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, HP LaserJet CP1215)When printing from Word (or any other normal application) the documents just sit in the print queue with Status = "Error - Printing".If I stop, then re-start the Print Spooler service, they then print.Strangely enough, this does not happen if I print from the HP printer diagnostic utility.I've done complete re-install of the entire printer driver suite and I'm pretty sure everything that end is OK. So what's happening with the spooler? The error message isn't exactly very revealing
how do i print to pdf? is there anything similar to the print to PDF addon for firefox. i also can't print when using xps nothing happens when i click save and don't have the option of printing to file. i can't check the box i would rather save to PDF though. no printers installed,XPS writer is set as default printer.
i am having an issue i have two wndows 7 home premium computers in seperate offices and when i remote desktop to the offsite one i am unable to print to the printer on site.
I have enabled the printer sharing and added additional driver support for the printer. It shows up when i am connected as redirected 2 and i can access all of the properties and other menus. However whenever i print to the printer the job never makes it. It does not matter what program i am in i have tried word excel notepad the test page firefox and nothing comes to the printer. The printer is not directly connected to the computer it is a local network install and works fine from all computers in the office just not with Remote Desktop.
I just installed Adobe Professional 7.0 which of course allows me to print pdf files. It requires a certain printer port that is being used by another pdf program that came with HP Elite HPE Series computer. I believe that pdf program is called PDF Complete 'Special Edition'.
This is the error I get when trying to print using Adobe Professiona: Error "Warning 20225" or no PDF Printer appears My question is how do I change the default pdf printer device to use Adobe's?
Suddenly since this afternoon I have not been able to print from any browsers. I am able to print test pages to the printer and print from any other applications (word and excel).
I have a toshiba laptop and it is running windows 7 with internet explorer 8 and I am not able to print from the internet, I get a error that says script error. I am able to print from all other programs and have called my printer company they say there is no problem on the printer side and all drivers are updated for the printer.
I am new to CMD but I would like to make a batch printing solution.
I know that using: Code: "C:Program Files (x86)AdobeReader 10.0ReaderAcroRd32.exe" /t "C:file_1.pdf"
I can print file_1.pdf but what I really need is to print multiple files, let's say file_2, file_3... file_n, therefore my instruction will change to: Code: "C:Program Files (x86)AdobeReader 10.0ReaderAcroRd32.exe" /t "C:XXXX.pdf"
I thought about making a TEXT file where I could write the name of the files that I need to print. Then in a batch file make a loop that will read each line of the TEXT and change my variable XXXX for the name of the file specified in each row of the TEXT.
I had a new Word 2007 doc to print, sent it to the printer. It would not print. When I checked the status it said it was printing, so I canceled the print job, it said deleting, but never deleted the doc, it just stayed with a deleted status. I can not print anything else, but once something else gets in the queue, it won't print but I can cancel it.
I'm running Win 7 Pro with my account (with admin rights) and my wifes' account (without admin rights). When in my account I can go to "file" then "print" and my printer is in the print dialog box. When in my wifes' account, and I go to the print dialog box it just says "xps document" or something to that effect where it should have the printers name. How can I make it so my wife can print?
On this computer any user I give admin rights to can print just fine. I set the security so that the everyone user has rights to the printer but if they don't have admin their print job just gets stuck in the que. It is an HP deskjet 6127, previously it was getting an error message about "A program running on this computer is trying to display a message." when a non admin would try to print and the print job would get stuck. I disabled the Interactive Services Detection service and it got rid of that message but the print job gets stuck just the same. It doesn't get an error message, it just says printing and never goes anywhere.
I also tried giving everyone read/write access to the print driver folder
Is there a way (and has windows 7 done it) to make the print-screen button to make a .JPG in a specific folder or any folder for that matter. so if you were to take 100 print-screens they would number off in a folder and be 100 files not the latest print-screen on the clipboard.
I wasn't quite sure where to post this so I'll put it here My mother bought a cooking ebook, in PDF format and in 7 parts. They came with a password to view which is understandable, but printing is restricted.My mum doesn't really think taking her laptop in the kitchen is a very practical method of reading it, and so naturally she asked me to try and find a way around this restriction. As I said I have the password to actually open the PDF and it was all legitimately acquired so I don't see the problem in asking a question of this nature.
I need to print all incoming faxes to pdf automatically and unattended. I have selected a good pdf printer, and set the print option (Tools-Fax Settings-receive-more options). The fax come is, the print to pdf never happens.
This is a new laptop, Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, and I have installed drivers for both my HP Laserjet CP1215 and Canon MP150, Whenever I try and print a document, from WordPad, Adobe Reader, Word, whatever, it just appears in the print queue with the Status as "Error - Printing".If I run the HP diagnostics utility, it can print test pages, no problem. So the USB connection and actual printer are fine. They also work fine with other PCs. I've checked the print spooler is up and running in "Services"
I have a desktop and a laptop, both running Windows 7-64. I've been able to print to either of my printers from the laptop, but now it says Server Offline and won't send print jobs out. The printers are set to Share.I don't have a server, and the desktop is running (not sleeping). What happened, and how do I fix it?
I'm trying to manage the backups I've made. It seems Windows 7 only labels them by date. I'd like to know what's in each backup, and print out a log of each backup like I could with XP. Just knowing what date the backup was made isn't enough.
I recently got a motherboard without a parallel port. I now use a USB port for windows printing, but it doesn't work from a command prompt. How can I configure it to work? It is a Xerox 6180N, very nice, but I need to print from command prompt frequently.
I have adobe reader 13 (file name AcroRd32) installed in my computer . Whenever I give the print for any pdf file command it shows printer unavailable.
I have to print a few dozen PDFs, each of which have between ten and one hundred pages each. The problem is, none of them actually reference their source, so when my boss reads them next to each other and piles them together, he has no way of knowing which ones came from which PDF. Is there a way I can add a "header" to the top of each page of a printed PDF, much like how when I add page numbers to a print job they go in the "footer"?I'm running Windows 7 and printing a PDF from Firefox. If it allows for more customizable print jobs I can print the PDF from Adobe Reader.
i have 3 desktop..two PC is having a win7 32bit and the other one is 64bit..i install the printer LX-300+II(dot matrix) on the 64bit win7...then of course the three desktop is on a network...the 32bit win7 is the admin..then the 64bit win7 and the 32bit admin can print on the dot matrix..but the other 32bit cannot..both of those 3 desktop are shared..workgroup name is same..sharing properties is same for both 32bit..and both 32bit can connect to the printer and can detect..when i tried to print its just qeue and comes with the word "spooling"..but when i tried printing on a laser printer it prints..but on the dot matrix it cannot print...
ways i tried:
1.check the port/ethernet the UTP cables plug out plug in and wait like around 20 secs. then connect again. 2.reinstall the driver on the 32bit that doesnt print. 3.remove device then add printer again. 4.did a windows update. 5.check if same workgroup. 6.check if shared and with same location and can access both 3 desktop. 7.check the permissions. 8.restart the computer. 9.troubleshooting the printer. 10.make sure there's a network connection.
IP address doesn't have because its a USB port and not suported by the OS..3 desktop on a network...two 32bit win7 one win7 64bit.32bit and 64 bit can print on the dot matrix and laser printer but the other 32bit cannot print on the matrix but can print on the laser..when printing its just qeue with spooling..
