InDesign & Illustrator won't print to Laserjet anymore
I upgraded to InDesign and Illustrator CS2 and now they won't print to my Laserjet 4m. I tried different ppds, reinstalled both programs, downloaded new printer drivers, repaired permissions, everything I can think of. When I print everything proceeds normally but the "Downloading Resource" goes very fast, the printer starts blinking to indicate it's receiving a document, then it all stops. Print dialogue says the job was completed.
I've been making pdfs and printing those without any problem, using the same ppd as the Laserjet too. Running MacOS 10.4.7. And both programs print to the HP Deskjet fine.
Any idea what the problem might be?

Re: InDesign & Illustrator won't print to Laserjet anymore
This is a known problem, particular to the LaserJet 4M (and possibly the 4MPlus). The problem is scheduled to be fixed in the next major version of InDesign and Illustrator.
The workaround is to export PDF from InDesign (or save PDF from Illustrator) and print the resultant PDF from either Acrobat (or if you don't have Acrobat, the free Adobe Reader).

Re: InDesign & Illustrator won't print to Laserjet anymore
I've been having this problem since IDCS (only intermittently there.) I have a Laserjet 4MPlus so you can add that to the list.
I tried the PDF, but don't have Acrobat or the Reader installed on this machine (OS 10.3.9) and I still get the same problem with the PDF in Preview.

Re: InDesign & Illustrator won't print to Laserjet anymore
Has anyone tried "pretending" it's a different printer? (For example, the driver from the 5si or the 4mv?) We had to do that with the 4mv's once 10.3 came out--the 10.3 driver for the 4mv had some serious issues, but if you told the computer it was a 5si at the other end it worked fine.

Re: InDesign & Illustrator won't print to Laserjet anymore
I tried the "pretending" but InDesign wouldn't let go of the PPD. I'll just have to keep outputting to PDF and printing from that. I'd buy a new printer, but the one I want (need) is too expensive right now. Thanks for the info.
