When I try to print Adobe Acrobat Reader files I get the following messages:

"The Document Could Not Be Printed"

"There were no pages selected to Print" (but I have tried to "print all" "print selected page" a screen shot of the print settings is below. Also note I have no problems printing from other software applications (word, excel are a few I have tried).

Print and prepress

I think Reader is looking for page 18, but there is only one page in your PDF. Try using a + sign in front of the page number, e.g +1

When I entered "+18" it said "Please enter valid page range."

FYI- It will not print regardless of which option I select in the "pages to Print" section ie does not work when "all" or "current page" or "page range" is selected. Cheers! Dana

Try +1, the + sign tells Reader to print the first page in the document, regardless of the page name.

Hi danaz9087059,

Please try the troubleshooting steps provided in this help link: Troubleshoot PDF printing in Acrobat and Reader

Try once "Print as image" option and check if it works.

Let us know how it goes.
