    Default Printing

    hi, this is just a wonder question, we install printers on
    machines who's users don't have admin rights to do so thus
    every time we must log off, install printers and log on
    again. Is there any way to install a printer as an
    administrator while logged in as the user like the
    hardware install does??

    thanks

    Hi,

    Right-click the highlighted text, click "print". In the print dialog, look
    for 'print range/selection'.

    Default Printing

    The design of the report is too wide for your printer.
    You may be able to get away with adjusting the margins in
    Page Setupfrom the File menu, however if your report is
    really wide either set to print in landscape or reduce the
    width of you report.

    I haven't used it but there's a package called "printtool" which is
    supposed to help you configure.

    magicfilter is another possibility -- that's what I used but I can't
    remember if I did my original setup with magicfilterconfig or manually

    BTW, /etc/printcap does not need to be very long -- mine is:

    lp|hpdj670c|HP DeskJet 670C:\
    :lp=/dev/lp0:sd=/var/spool/lpd/hpdj670c:\
    :sh:pw#80:pl#72:px#1440:mx#0:\
    :if=/etc/magicfilter/dj690c-filter:\
    :af=/var/log/lp-acct:lf=/var/log/lp-errs:

    But I don't use it any more because I switched to CUPS. That has a web
    configuration front-end.

    apt-get install cupsys cupsys-bsd
    and
    apt-get install cupsys-driver-gimpprint
    which has graphics drivers for photo printing

    then [url]http://localhost:631/[/url] to configure

    Default Printing

    Hello everyone.
    I have this web site created in vb.net. I'm using this simple javascript
    to print

    function Printit()
    {
    window.print();
    }

    Now is there anyway in that function to automaticly select the default
    printer, set the margins and make sure printing background colors is on. oh
    and hide the image that you click on to print the page

    Thanks
    Mark

    Default Re: Printing

    Hiding an image is fairly simple - just set it's display (or visibility)
    style for print @media rule. Like this:

    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Print page</title>
    <style type="text/css>
    @media print {
    #printbtn { visibility: hidden; }
    }
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <a href="javascript:window.print()" id="printbtn">Print</a>
    </body>

    As for selecting the default printer and all the other stuff: No. ASP pages
    are not WinForms applications (no matter how much certain ppl want them to
    be) and there are things you just can't do. Unless you do want to install an
    actual application on the client side, such as an ActiveX control that will
    do the printing for you (but then you can't simply use window.print() but
    you'd have to do the printing yourself).

    Hi folks,

    I have installed lpr and apsfilter to drive my HP DeskJet 660C. During
    apsfilterconfig, I chose [ijs/DESKJET_660] as th printer driver.

    I couldn't pass print test. It failed with the msg:
    sh: hpijs command not found
    GNU Ghostscript 6.53: Can't start ijs server "hpijs"
    **** Unable to open the initial device, quitting

    I have done apt-get update and upgrade. It doesn't help.

    BTW, I know about CUPS. My printing will be text or webpage only. What I
    have installed should be sufficient, right?

    Cheers

    Default Printing

    I take pictures with a 5 m olympus digital camera and download them to PS 7 for editing or printing.

    I also use HP photosmart printer. However, when I drag and drop my picture into a predetermined size (5X7 -4X6 etc I have a problem because my pictures are automatically cropped to fit on the page. So I lose quite a bit of the picture especially if taken with a wide angle lens. In other words undesired cropping occurs.
    Does anyone know how I can scale down or resize my shots so that they will fit in a 4X6 or 5X7 without losing portion of the picture?

    I did post this question before but I am still having problems if I want to print on pre cut paper such as 4X6 or 5X7 and then frame the pictures
    Thanks

    Default Re: Printing

    There is no way around it. If you wish to preserve the original proportions of the image, then you have to print to the same proportions. No image can be printed to 4x6, 5x7 and 8x10 without at least two of the prints being cropped. The proportions of the three sizes are all different.

    The good news is that almost any camera image can be improved by careful cropping.

    I need to create some reports for printing from my database. From
    everything I can find using Google, there doesn't seem to be any ways to
    override the default header and footer.

    Is this still true? Any good workarounds out there?

    The header and footer that appear when printing a html-page cannot be
    removed by any script as they are added on the client side. But you
    could provide the users of your website with the info on how to alter
    the print-settings so the header and footer will not appear...
    It's under File > Page Setup (Headers and Footers)

    OR... You could create a PDF with your results, no problems with
    headers and footers when the user prints out a PDF.

    Thank you for the help. This is the option that I was considering as an
    alternative. I hear FPDF is pretty good, so I will have to give that a
    look.
