Printing problems.........

[M-L]

It doesn't rain but it pours.

My HP Deskjet F2280 all in one printer won't print landscape in
anything created by LyX either directly from LyX or from a .pdf file
that LyX created.

I see on the Hewlett Packard webspace that another person is having
problems with the same printer when trying to print landscape documents
created by LaTeX, on an Ubuntu system.

He said that an OpenOffice landscape document will print. I haven't
tried it yet.

But no solution was found. So who's problem? LyX or HP and making it
mine?

I would guess that you would have the same problem when exporting to
LaTeX and compiling the document manually, but it is worth checking.

If so, then the problem is not with LyX but either with pdflatex or with
HP or with some combination thereof, or perhaps with whatever is
converting the PDF to a format the DeskJet will recognize.

Hi all,

ervery time I want to print a file from lyx, or ggv or kghostview or
kdvi I got several empty pages before the document became printed.
Printing from all other apps is ok - so I guess it's a problem with
ghostscript. 

Does anyone have the same problem and can help me?

Thank you

It is probably not the fault of lyx.  There are many places in between 
cups,  the filters and ghostscript
where the problem can occur. If you use SuSE I can give you a reference 
to an article in their support
database.

lyx printing problems

[alex rogalski]

Hi. I have been trying to printout a document in progress, which
normally printed fine, and instead of black characters, i get black
blocks with white characters inside them... why is this happening and
how can i fix it?  -my printer does test pages fine, so im guessing this
is something weird with the postscript print?
