Topic: printing problem
Posted: 30 Jun 2009 at 10:41am

Hi,
I was looking at buying a format printer (second hand)
The print was demonstrated, but only part of the image printed.
Its sort of 'staggared' accross the image, printing a bit more of the image with each new line it printed (if this makes sense?).

Was just wondering how easy it would be to sort this problem?
Sort of put me off buying it, but now really want to know why a printer would print like this.

Any opinions would be appreciated, thanks!

Do not buy it unless properly serviced and guaranteed by an authorised engineer.

Buying a printer is only half the drama, the real show begins when you start to waste money on cartridge replacement.Cartridge replacement is never fun, no matter how many times youve done it before because of adjustments required for new cartridges & procedure to avoid ink linkage (I always have ink on my hands when I finish installing). Refilling is not best cos I print a lot. Anyone who is serious about printing, should try continuous ink supply, especially since it works on both matte & glossy photo paper, A4 &A3 format, & suitable for printing posters on plotters too (see www.inksystem.com)

Before you can troubleshoot the problem, determine its cause. Do the following steps in order:

1. Print another PDF, such as the first page of Acrobat Help.

If a separate PDF file prints correctly, the PDF that doesn't print correctly could be damaged. See "Can't print a specific PDF file" later in this document.
If the separate file doesn't print correctly, go to step 2.

2. Print another type of file (for example, a plain text file) from another application (such as Microsoft Word or WordPad).

If that other type of file prints correctly, the problem isn't system-wide--it's specific to the Adobe Reader or Acrobat product. However, the problem could come from Reader or Acrobat interacts with the system. Go to step 3 to eliminate some system-related causes of the problem.
If that other type of file doesn't print correctly, the problem is system-wide--it isn't specific to Acrobat or PDFs. The problem could be low system resources, insufficient memory on your printer, or a poor connection between your computer and the printer. Go to step 3 to eliminate some likely causes of the problem.

I had the same problem and managed to solve it by adding the printer as a network printer from within the XP virtual machine.
