This is for you Fitfreakers who are also computer nerds.

I can't get the pages from the Service Manual PDF to print. My printer receives the command, the usual lights blink, but nothing happens.

Is there a memory issue here, or a document size issue?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

 

Are you able to print to PDF just to test? Yes I know you already have the PDF, but just to see what the output would be. How many pages are you trying to print at a time? Maybe just do one page.

Also not sure if the document is calling for say legal size paper, while your printer only has letter. So it's waiting for legal size paper.

 

Not sure what this means.

It will not print even one page at a time.

The default is set to "Shrink oversized pages."

 

Can you change it to print on letter sized paper? My wife had this issue where the document was formatted to print to Legal. Well we didn't have legal setup on any of the paper trays so it was defaulting to print to the manual feed tray. It would just sit there until you manually cancelled the job. I changed the print properties of the document to print to letter and it would print from one of the other paper trays with letter loaded into it instead.

 

check services.msc

make sure "print spooler" service is running

 

The default selection in Page Setup is for US Letter size paper.


SOLUTION FOUND: I opened the PDF in Preview. Now, the document prints like a champ.

Thanks for your responses, and I leave it to you gentlemen to figure out why it would not print in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
