Printing problems when using Adobe Reader

I am now unable to print to one of my printers from my desktop when you use Adobe Reader (version 11.0.01).  All print and scan functions work with all other software

Running Winows 8

Printer 1 is: MFC-7360N with network connection

Printer 2 is: MFC-6490CW with a Wi - Fi connection

I have reinstalled drivers etc. for all printers and Adobe. I tried printing an image and all I ever get is a message in a pop up saying window, the document could not be printed, then a second window doesn't pop up saying that no pages were selected to print. I get the message even if I try to print the entire file, a selection of custom pages or just the current page.

I can save the same files on another computer and print from them, but this is getting a little ridiculous.

Any suggestions would be helpful at this stage

Two other things to try:

  • Open Adobe Reader | Change | Preferences

    1. under Security (enhanced). Disable protected Mode
    2. under Documents, the value "Show the documents in PDF/A mode" Never

    Hi sgodwin2468,

    Make sure that Acrobat Reader DC is updated Release Notes | Adobe Acrobat, Reader.

    If the problem persists, try the solution below.

    The default "save under" Acrobat/Reader DC dialog box is different from the dialogue box you had in earlier versions of Acrobat/Reader, it also allows you to record in the clouds and previous locations that you saved the files. It is possible that when Acrobat/Reader tries to connect to the 'cloud', it runs into problems. You can try to disable this feature to see if this brings your backup in the back of the box: open Acrobat Preferences, then go to the "General" category and uncheck "show the online storage when you save files:

  • Printing using Adobe Reader problems

    Sometimes when I try to print a PDF with Adobe Reader, it will print the first two pages OK, then the rest will be ruined. This may be the cause for this? Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

  • The U.S. Patent Office offers 'Forms PDF' download using Adobe Reader. However, when I try to download a form, only a 'Please Wait' displays.

    The U.S. Patent Office offers 'PDF forms' which can be downloaded using Adobe Reader. However, when I try to download these forms, only a "Please wait" message is displayed. I have the latest Adobe Reader, who says that force is necessary. So what is wrong here?

    Do not try to open the files directly in your browser. On the contrary, save them locally and then open them in Reader directly.

  • Received an email from my bank with loan documents that I need to approve.  The binding uses Adobe reader, and when I click it, it says I need to download it, but I already downloaded it.

    What should I do to access the link?

    Problem: you try to open a PDF file in the browser. You would expect instead to see the PDF file you see a page (resembling a normal PDF page) - NOT a pop-up message with an OK - but with a message telling you that you must consult the document with Adobe Reader and tell you to download.

    Cause: the message is true. You must use Adobe Reader. You are using a browser that isn't using Adobe Reader.

    Solution: Download the PDF - the one with the funny message - on your desktop. So in fact open in Adobe Reader.

    Note: This is only a solution for both Mac and Windows users.

  • When I updated my Adobe Acrobat plug-ins it uninstalled Adobe Reader and installed Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. Can I use Adobe Reader instead?

    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Firefox said that my plugin Adobe Acrobat was outdated, so I've updated. It uninstalled my Adobe Reader Version 11.0.12.18 and replaced it with Adobe Acrobat Reader Version 2015.008.20082 DC. I did not like this program, and more I read there are still bugs in there. I uninstalled the program and reinstalled Adobe Reader Version 11.0.12.18. I went into the menu of options of Firefox under applications and changed the options Adobe to use Adobe Reader as the default application for PDF files. It is a safe choice, or should I leave Firefox dictate what PDF program I use? I am concerned about safety issues. Any opinions?

    I think that your question has been answered mainly in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1079182

    In my opinion, you can trust Adobe to keep the series XI Reader updated for awhile. It is completely safe is impossible to know, given that vulnerabilities are often discovered and kept secret.

    Hi Ajlan,

    To solve my problem, I uninstalled adobe reader X with "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool", rebooted the server, installed Adobe Reader XI and restarted again.

    For some users, this fixes the problem, but with a few others, I had to define default Adobe Reader again.

    I tried without using 'Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat cleaning tool' front and the adobe reader X software was not really uninstall.

    Thank you

  • Cannot print from MSOffice or Adobe Reader on HP Officejet 4620

    Cannot print to MSOffice or Adobe Reader for HP Officejet 4620, but I can print from the internet, and I can print emails.  My ink level is full, and it prints well on the internet, so, apparently, that my printer working.  What can cause problems printing only from computer programs?

    Additional info: when I hit print paper out, but most of the time does nothing about it, but sometimes a fraction of the page prints even if the setting is to print the entire document.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

  • "Cannot use adobe reader to view PDFs in your web browser" error in Windows 7 and Acrobat pro 8.1.7

    I get the error 'cannot use adobe reader to view PDFs in your web browser.  Player will now stop.  Please exit your browser and try again"in Windows 7 x 32 and Windows 7 x 64 with Acrobat pro 8.1.7.  This occurs when you try to open a PDF file in Internet explore 8.0.760 or when I open a PDF file in Quickbooks 2008.  If I answer ok or cancel, the file opens normally.  If I open acrobat 8 first of all and then the pdf file opens as expected.  I also tried a copy of Acrobat reader, with no difference in the result.  Because this happens on two different computers a new copy of windows 7 x 64, the other, an upgrade to windows 7 x 32 and they used to work before moving to windows 7, I guess that there is some sort of incompatibility with windows 7 and acrobat.  Is this a known problem and will be fixed in an update to acrobat in the near future?

    For Windows 7 you will need Adobe Acrobat 9.1.

  • Recently no matter what I do, Firefox does not allow me to use Adobe Reader rather than his own

    I used to be able to display pdf documents using Adobe Reader instead of Firefox built in. I tried everything that you suggest and what Adobe suggest. I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader (11.0.09). I went to the options of Mozilla, but when I try to change the settings of Document Portable, I don't get the option "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)". I get the Adobe forms but not for PDF documents. If I change to use Adobe Reader, it downloads and then open drive which is not I want. I want to use the plugin installed (I go to modules and it is installed and "always enable").

    Help? This only started happening in the last month or two. I use the latest version of Firefox (33.0.2), Windows 7 (updated with all the updates, etc.).

    I did a Reset Firefox. Then reactivated the plugins. Now he works with the Adobe Acrobat plugin, even if Firefox think (at least according to the Options-> Applications) that he uses the Foxit plugin. It does not give me the option to select the Macromedia software. But which loads when I access a PDF file!

    As long as there is the work, I don't care on this issue.

    Before that I started posting here, I already tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox, uninstall and reinstall Adobe Reader, by removing the file pluginreg.dat, etc. and everything that I could find on the Mozilla site, the Adobe site and the rest of the web.

    Thank you for all your help.

  • I use Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrabat (If Yes, there is difference) and I have been a Sony tablet. I use a PDF file as a lesson plan, normally to just open the document and it moves automatically to 'recent' in 'my documents '.

    I use Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrabat (if there is no difference) and I have been a Sony tablet. I use a PDF file as a lesson plan, normally to just open the document and it moves automatically to 'recent' in 'my documents '. But when I close this document in particular I need to find it in my downloads and open again in Adobe, but the changes I made are not here obviously? How can I move an item in the recent myself? Help, please!

    Hello

    What is the operating system on your Sony Tablet?  Windows or Android?  What is the version of the operating system?

    Your documents are stored on your device or on the cloud (Cloud Document Adobe, Adobe Creative Cloud) storage.

    Please note that the recent section displays the local and cloud the documents you have open/read recently.  Player does not physically move/transfer local or documents to the recent Division of clouds.
