OS X V10.7 Lion :: Default Paper Sizes Specific To Individual Printers?
Apr 29, 2012
I have three printers and all loaded with different sized paper, A4, A3 and A5. How can i set the default paper size on each one so that i only have to select that particular printer and the OS would know what size paper it should be printing on?Â
I have a HP 7000 loaded with A3, 6500 loaded with A4 and and B110 loaded with A5. In print and fax, the default paper size is global across all three printers and I have to change it every time. I want to be able to tell the printer or OS what I want to do with each printer and tell it what type of paer is loaded and then each time I selct that printer it would know what to do?Â

I have Lion 10.7.4
I have Parralels 7 and run AutoCAD in ParrallelsÂ
I have a HP Deskject 9800 (USB connected) and an HP Laser Jet Pro CM1415fmw color MFP (wifi connected) all accessable from my MAcBookProÂ
Printing is a hassle from Autocad with my MAC OS. In WinXP, (prior to switching to MAC) I could assign a paper size to each printer in printer set up. Then when printing from AutoCAD I would just select the print I wanted for the paper size and done..... perfect!Â
However, in Mac with Parrallels AutoCAD does not really talk correctly through to the printers on the Mac side. So I have to go into Lion printer settings and change the paper size all the time between tabloid and US letter. I always forget and waste a lot of paper.Â
Looking for a way to set a Lion OS printer to a specific paper size and have it maintain that paper size while a different printer has a differenet paper size, but this doesn't seem possible.Â
Every time I change the paper size in the Lion OS for one printer it changes it for all printers.Â

Is it possible to select a default printer/print size that is not in the default print size list that OSX offers for "Any Printers" or in the Print Center.
Its just we're trying to run a kiosk on a touch screen iMac that needs to produce a receipt from a small receipt printer that doesn't use a standard print size.
So therefore I need to have OSX set to print to this non-standard size every time it boots up.
Are there any pref files I need to change? Or can I do this through the GUI?

I have been searching on Google on how to set a specific color label for certain extension like .docx, .pdf, .png, etc. I was only able to change the color label for a specific by using command-I and change the color label. I want a specific extension to have a specific color label. Is this possible? It would be pretty helpful for me to spot a certain file type extension.

I have a website that I need to open with Safari as it won't display properly in Firefox 3.6.3. From the Address Bar in Safari, I dragged a link to my desktop, right-clicked and checked it to always open with Safari. The name of the link is something like "PITA.webloc"
When it opens that first time, it dose open in Safari, but subsequently, always opens in FF. I also right-clicked to "Get Info" and indicated it to always open with Safari. While "Get Info" shows that correctly, it still always opens in FF.

Whenever I attempt to change the default program to open a file, it automatically reverts to whatever was selected previously. I work with a lot of .ai files and my default Illustrator version is set to Creative Cloud. CC crashes constantly on my machine, however CS6 runs smooth as silk. I'd like to be able to double click an .ai file and have it open in CS6, not CC. When I right click > Get Info > Open with and change it, it reverts as soon as I click "Change all..."Â

When I want to print a 'List' of addresses from Address Book as I do quite often, is there a way to permanantly set the 'Paper Size' to A4 instead of it defaulting to US Letter all the time? Its really annoying when you forget to change it when printing a list in a hurry! On this, Address Book 'Help' is about as useful as a chocolate teapot.

I seem to be unable to add PDF to my list of printers, as I have been able to do in the past. Is it no longer necessary to add a .PPD file to print directly to PDF from, say, Illustrator or InDesign?

I've always used VMware correctly, but now I just can't run it. I was trying to instal free program Kerkythea but it has failed too. I've read that I should install de x11, wich I did, but when I tryed to run VMware it just failed. Then I uninstalled x11 and xquarck, keep failing installing kerkythea and the VMware still didn't work. I use Lion OS. Unable to retrieve kernel zone sizes - Failed to initialize montor device - Cannot find a valid peer process to connect to - come up when trying to open my Quickbooks in VMware Fusion.

I'm running Lion OS X server and I have set up a printer on my server (the printer is not AirPrint friendly). What I want to do is set it up the printer so that I can get iPads and iPhones to be able to see that printer and print to it. I tried a program called Printopia 2 but it did not work, now I am not sure if it is becasue I have to set up something in system preferences or something similar. I have enbaled the printer to be shared.

I have 3 Macs (iMac 24", iMac 27" and MacBook Pro 15") each are connected to their own USB Samsung printer (ML-2510 and ML 2010). Since the OSX 10.7.3 upgrade from February 3rd 2012, they all have the same problem. The printer is responding, when we send something to print, the printer starts running and then stops before printing anything. The strange thing is that the next time I try to print, it can be OK. I am able to print sometime but not always. This problem is the same on all 3 computers. I have tryed to reinstall the driver from the Samsung web site and it did not resolved the problems.Â

I'm trying to figure out a way to go from an individually opened email to its conversation view. I know the Conversation View tickbox but that just groups the emails in the inbox. What I want is to go from an email that is opened in its own window to the email's conversation in the inbox.Â
Side note: I'm trying to do this as the CulturedCode Things' autofill puts a link to the individual email (or many links to individual emails in the conversation). When I click on it, it opens the email in its own window but I also want the context of the discussion. (And all this because gmail forced the ugly new look upon me - gmail+Mailplane was working just fine... )

I recently upgraded to OS 10.7 and now can't find my Time Capsule under devices to access individual files stored on it. The system is recognizing it under time machine and is doing full backups to it, but only the backup portion is accessible through Finder. How do I get back to where I can pull up the contents of the Time Capsule on an individual basis?

I faced an odd behaviour by the Signatures feature in Os X Lion. On two specific PDFs that come from the very same source, my signatures have a vertical alignment instead of horizontal as they have on all other PDFs.Â
I did not do any specific tweak to the PDF or to Preview before facing this behaviourÂ

I have a folder full of PDF's that I need to print. I saved a custom printer preset that I need to use. It specifies two sided as well as stapling. When I try to batch print through the finder (select all and print, or drop into the desktop printer), it does not use the preset that I created and there's no prompt to change it. I've also tried opening them all in Preview, but Preview processes all the docs as one print job. I need each one processed separately to that stapling applies correctly. I've also tried other tips about opening the CUPS printer page and setting default options. The office finisher settings of my Xerox do not show up on that page.

I wish to use the Time Machine function to backup only one specific folder on my computer, the DROPBOX folder. How can I implement this and inform Time Machine of my choice?Â
According to my first investigations, I only have the choice to select folders to EXCLUDE. This makes the setup of Time Machine unconfortable.Â

I'm aware of how enabling sFTP support in Lion Server by enabling SSH access in the Hardware settings.
Now, if I do log in using sFTP in Transmit client Software with a normal user account who should be able to access via SSH but got only permissions for the "Public" folder on the Server, that user via SSH/sFTP can see/access the root Directory of the server anyway!
how to set specific folder permissions to users using the enabled SSH/sFTP option?
