Ubuntu :: Printing Grayscale - Margins And Page Shrink Doesn't Work
Jul 13, 2010
I'm trying to print a PDF from Evince it don't work at all...
When I try to print in grayscale it send a blank paper to the printer...When I try to print anything in color I can't change the margin of the paper, it always put like ZERO margin and the text go throw the end of the paper.
The paper size is A5 (Half A4) and the printer is in LAN in a Windows computer.
It's me or when I print in grayscale it print faster? So, it's an update or something? Because last time I printed from Ubuntu (like a month ago) it printed perfectly OK in grayscale (I don't know about the margin).

I have set up an HP 5M networked printer. The test page works fine, and the defaults are all set correctly. But when I try to print from my own java programs, the paper size is set to letter, and the margins are all set to 2.54 mm. I can change the paper size to A4 (but I have to do it EVERY time). And the margins won't even let me change them. I type in 0, click in the next field, and the value changes straight back to 2.54. It has been this way for at least the last two releases of Ubuntu.

I have an HP Deskjet D1460. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 and HPLIP 3.10.2 that came with the distro. I am in a plan of moving my windows PC to ubuntu in my bussiness, and this is the first of them. Trying to solve all the problems before converting a second one. All seems to work quite well and almost out of the box... and that is a huge step from the last distro i tryied 2 years ago. So, my difficulty now resides on the printing. I am using a small VFox program that manage some of the aspects of the bussiness, in wine. It works without problems, but... when I print, all the pages get printed like 1cm below than when it was printed under windows. The problem is, that I use the printer to fill some forms that came pre-printed, and now, I am printing over the other text instead of the white spaces. I read a little, and try to adjust the HWMargins and the ImageableArea in the ppd of /etc/cups/ppd/ but it was like if I was doing nothing. Do I miss a step? Do I need to restart a service or something after changing the ppd? The margings when using the printer gui from Ubuntu are all in 0, and for that i need like a minus something.

I am having trouble converting a latex file to pdf with the precision I am looking for. I want strict control of the margins for both the outputted pdf and the printed page but currently it looks like there is a discrepancy between the two. I set the margins with the geometry package, i.e.
Code:
usepackage[left=.5in,right=.5in,top=.5in,bottom=.5in]{geometry} and then have tried converting to pdf by both the dvipdf route and the dvips --> ps2pdf route. All of these output files look identical through evince, however when I physically print the pdf the margins are roughly double the size I want. When I print the ps version the margins are exactly what I want. Therefore I expect the problem is obviously in ps2pdf.
I am printing on letter paper (8.5 x 11), which I have tried to explicitly set using
Code:
ps2pdf -sPAPERSIZE=letter foo.ps
with no luck.
My goal is to have a pdf for the sake of compatibility. I also do not want to use pdflatex for various reasons. Does anyone have any idea why this would be happening? What options have to be set that I don't know about. I tried searching around for a while but mostly found solutions involving a mistake papersize (a4 vs letter) changes, so sorry if this is RTFM.

When I try to print any PDF from either Acroread or Evince, it doesn't print and the queue tells me the printer isn't connected; and yet, when I print from OpenOffice.org, everything's fine.

I have a PDF that I built using BIRT, and that works fine. At this point I'm trying to print it using lpr or some other command. It seems as though I should just be able to type lpr invoice.pdf and it should print to the default printer. However, lpstat -t shows "Empty print file!" for the printer, and the printer doesn't do anything, let alone print the file. lpr -l invoice.pdf prints the file, but unformatted - just a bunch of characters and whitespace on a seemingly infinite number of pages.

Dell Mini 9, 2GB RAM, 32 GB SSD, Ubuntu 10.04 UNR . At Panera, and other places that have free Internet access but require signing in on a page they load, I cannot get on to the Internet. Their sign-in page comes up on my iPod Touch but does not come up on my DM9. This happens no matter which browser I have running on my DM9 (I have Firefox and Chromium). And since I can't sign in, I don't get onto the Internet. Initially I am connected to their router and the signal is strong but because I don't sign in (I'm assuming here), I am disconnected. What do I need to do to see their sign-in page so I can get connected. At locations that have no sign-in pages I have no problems whether or not a password is required.

I have a HP printer connected to Ubuntu 10.04. Just recently I noticed that when I print something it also prints a cover page with some info about print job. Does anyone know how to stop printing the cover page? This is a serious waste of paper.

I would like to print full page on a HP Deskjet F4280 using any kind of software (GIMP for example).
I tried to edit the printer ppd file, turned hardware margins off in the print properties in GIMP, yet when I try to print an image 8.5 in wide on letter size paper, GIMP still leaves approx. 1/8in gap on the paper edge.
The printer hardware can do it: when I simply use the copy function it can print to the very edge of the paper.
Question: does anybody know how I need to edit the ppd file (or other config files) to convince GIMP (or other programs) to print using the full page?

Both my printers can't print more that one page on the row whatever the application I use.
I used to have a all-in-one printer HP PSC 1510 that I installed without any trouble.
A few days ago, I've got another scanner-printer HP 1050 that I tried to install on the same laptop in order to use it in another place. I had to take the new version of HP-lip, since 11.3 did not provide the right driver. I just printed the test page and it seemed okay.
Then, I upgraded from 11.3 to 11.4. And I had to print a long document. Only the first page was displayed correctly. All the following pages are more and more mixed up. It prints allways the same paragraph with big dark lines...
Following to cup, the drivers in use are :
Deskjet_1050_J410 : HP Deskjet 1050 j410 Series, hpcups 3.11.3a
PSC-1500-series : HP PSC 1500 Series, hpcups 3.10.2rc1.9
But the trouble is the same for both printers.
I can't guess if it comes from HP-lip or from my upgrade.

I recently built a server from an old box using Ubuntu Server 9.10. This is my first server and I am very new to the server world.I have an Epson Stylus NX400 connected via USB. I have managed to configure it to the point where I can see the printer listed on my client laptop and can print a test page. However, I cannot print anything else. When I access the job history through the CUPS adminI can see that the print jobs were recognized and marked as complete, even though the printer never physically engaged.

I have set everything in my printer settings to "US Letter" both via system-config-printer, and in the localization settings for KDE "System Settings". However everytime I attempt to print the printer will say that it's A4 and asks to load paper. I have searched everywhere for this default and I cannot find it in KDE. While in Gnome, all works as expected with printing (even when printing from KDE applications). Does anyone know how to change the default from A4 to US Letter?

After some effort, finaly managed to get my Canon PIXMAiP4200 printer connected as a network printer. (I connect it through the USB printer port on a DLink DI-524UP router) Everything seems ok so far, except that I cannot find any means of specifying that printing should start from the last page.

I've been able to print with other distros (Mint, Sabayon) without problem so I'm guessing the way my printer is configured with Slack must be wrong. My CX6600 is recognized and when I try to print, it responds, but by printing a page filled with black ink. I have tried printing in Okular, Firefox and OpenOffice with the same result.

I've been looking though different editors for one that has good printing support. Ideally it should be able to print C++ code with line numbers, syntax highlighting, multiple columns per page, customizable fonts and sizes and a print preview feature so that I can make sure it looks right before sending it to the printer. It appears that notepad++ had at least some of these features, but it is not available on linux. The best I could do so far is to copy/paste the output of 'cat -n foo.cpp' into oowriter and format it into two colums. I don't get synax highlighting though and I have to manually replace tabs with a few spaces as well as some excessive leading spaces before the line numbering.

I scanned a document in color to PDF, and I don't want to re-scan it.
How can I convert this PDF document to grayscale (preferably without loss of other information)?
My usual toolset of doPDF, pdfsam and the Neevia online converter don't work here. I was thinking I could simply print to PDF and select the Grayscale color option, but doPDF doesn't have that option.
I'm using Windows, but I can probably handle a solution for any OS.

I'm running Xfce 4.6.1 and xfdesktop 4.6.1.1 (or so aptitude said). When I use 'None' image option - just colour - I get the colour I ask for but if I change that to either 'Single image' or 'Image list' then both the image and the background colour are made greyscale.
I have tried looking through all the options I could find to do with Xfce and searching Google but I don't know how to phrase it as my searches tend to bring up black and white wallpapers.
Running X as a different user on the same computer does not cause the same problem which makes me think it might be cause by a user setting though I spent a long time with a black and white wallpaper and do not know when the issue first arose.

I don't think I've messed up my settings because this is happening on both my computers. But it is still always a possibility. When I open a program, whether by command-line or by clicking somewhere, the windows don't always open completely inside the available desktop space. I mean the total space minus the task bar along the bottom. Firefox always opens with the bottom margin unreachable. kdenlive opens half out of the screen towards the right and the bottom. It is easy to drag them back where they belong, but always having to do this, with eventually a resize needed, to see the whole window of the program is getting tedious

I have a HP P1005, which is connected to my desktop computer. I have it configured using hp-setup and set it to share across the network. However no matter what I do on an other computer connected to the network I'm unable to detect the printer. With OS 11.2 it all worked smoothly and practically out of the box. Only need was to add CUPS as an allowed service. This option is taken out, apparently it posed a security risk beats me if you only allowed local traffic. In order to open up the port I added in the internal and external zone the following: code...
Still the printer is not detected. If I turn the firewall off on both machines, no printer. If I try to ping it from the host machine it asks whether or not I enabled the firewall (which is turned off!!).
cupsd is running on the server printer. Localhost:631 is correctly configured and printing from my desktop works fine.

After installing libre3.3.2 using the Slackbuild scripts, I found that it displayed fonts correctly, but doesn't print the same font on the printer. The output of the printer should be Arial, but is instead some elongated, overlapping mess.
The same Slackware package installed on SW13.1 prints normally. (Same computer, different partition)
Spadmin used to control the printer fonts, but apparently not anymore.

I just brought up a new server on RHEL4 to replace an existing older one. The server is using CUPS for printing. I copied the cupsd.conf, printers.conf, and lpoptions files over from the old server. I also copied the printer files in the /etc/cups/ppd directory over to the new server. But I can't get printing to work. And when I run system-config-printer-tui I don't see any of the printers in the dialog box. What other file(s) am I missing?

I have a mfc-440cn installed and working in Debian wheezy 7.4 (the last one) but I cant fix to it for printing in grey, I was using the pdf default reader and send some pages to printing indicating not to print them in color just greys colors but doesn't respect that order, it prints full color. When I see the conf page for the printer it stills have the configuration I did indicating to print grey but it ignores it and print as it wants (full color). Note that I installed thr mfc according the instructions from the brother support page with no trouble but is just that it only wants to print full color.
