Question

Adobe Reader X - Cannot Print No Pages Selected

I get this same error message for ALL the different printers in my office, no matter which I choose. It also doesn't matter which computer I try to print the file (created in InDesign) from. It doesn't appear to be the file's fault, because I get the error for other documents created in InDesign that I created months ago before I switched to Adobe Reader X. These files used to print just fine.

What is going on? How can I get my PDFs to print? It can't be the printer driver.

The only thing that worked was I had to print only pages 1-18 or so, and then print the remaining. There is nothing special about the 19th page. And they used to be able to print all pages at once but not anymore!

    What OS? What version of Reader X? You say you have the problem with all printers in your office, does it happen on all computers in our office or just your? When did this problem start? If on Windows, was it after the second Tuesday of the month?

    EDIT: I have found the culprit. One of the ads from one of my advertisers is causing the problem. I've been running this ad since March but something about it seems incompatible with both Adobe Reader X and Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1.0 (it's even broken in back issues which were printing correctly in Acrobat 9). I have removed the ad.

    This started happening after I upgraded all the computers to Windows 7 OS. We first noticed it last Thursday. It happens for all users on all computers in the office.

    Adobe Reader X version: 10.1.0

    Error also occurs with Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1.0 (using Windows 7).

    Error only seems to occur with PDF's that were created in InDesign (version CS3 and CS5.5)

    I'm having a similar problem as well.

    XP profressional sp3

    Adobe Reader X 10.1.1

    printing to HP 800-series plotter gives error

    printing to Xerox ColorQube 9201 works as expected

    I've reinstalled the drivers for the plotter with no luck.

    When printing to the plotter, I've tried printing as an image and not, priting only the document as opposed to documents and markups, and printing a variety of sizes.

    The only things I can think of that would have changed my machine are the couple security updates that recently came out in the last week or so, and I had to defrag my drive about a week ago as well.  Before that, printing to the plotter from Adobe worked just fine.

    Thoughts?
