Hi,

We have been using SpirePDF for some time now and have recently ran into an issue.
We have a new Printer in house a Ricoh ICM-4500 and when using SpirePDF to print some elements on the page do not get printed.
Printing the same document with Adobe Reader prints correctly.
We are currently using SpirePDF 4.12.7 but I have also tried 5.10.2 with no improvement.

Here is a section of the code we use to print
Code: Select all
pdfPrint.PrintSettings.SelectSinglePageLayout(PdfSinglePageScalingMode.ActualSize);
pdfPrint.PrintSettings.Duplex = (System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex)PrintDuplex;
pdfPrint.PrintSettings.Copies = NumberOfCopies;
pdfPrint.PrintSettings.PrintController = new System.Drawing.Printing.StandardPrintController();
pdfPrint.Print();

I have also tried:
Code: Select all
pdfPrint.PrintSettings.SelectSinglePageLayout(PdfSinglePageScalingMode.FitSize,false,99f);

This brings some of the elements back but messes up the scaling on the page.
I have also tried a few different drivers but nothing changed. Adobe still prints fine while SpirePDF dosen't.

I have attached a couple of images to show the missing elements.

This issue seems to be just with the Ricoh machine as we can print the document to our Xerox machines using SpirePDF with no issues.

Would you have any suggestions or ideas what the issue could be?

Thanks
AndyG

Hi,

I have more information that might help with the testing:

I have found that if the Ricoh printer driver is set to 1200 x 1200 dpi the documents print correctly. Any other setting i.e. 600 x 600 and the elements disappear when printing with SpirePDF.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I have had a chance to test this and it does seem to be fixed, thank you.

Unfortunately we can not use this version as this issue is still outstanding https://www.e-iceblue.com/forum/pdfsinglepagescalingmode-actualsize-margins-incorrect-t9722.html which affects most of our printing.

Thanks again
AndyG

Hello AndyG,

Thanks for your feedback.
I just checked the status of your another issue (The result of the margins printed by our Spire.PDF is different from Adobe's print result), and found it is now under the test phase. Once it passes the test, we will do our best to provide a new version for you as soon as possible.

Sincerely,
Brian
