Problems printing MD-11 manuals

Featured Replies

Greetings all,I'm planning on buying the MD-11, but first I wanted to study the manual. I'm trying to print each PDF, but after around 15 pages the print quality degrades significantly. Only parts of the page are printing. It's not a low-ink issue. Also, when I reboot my computer and try again, the pages all print perfectly. I have a fairly new printer (HP Photosmart C4480), so printing a 2MB file shouldnt be an issue. In fact, I've printed other PMDG PDF files before without any problems. I'm trying to print one page for every PDF page, something that wont make the treehuggers happy, but will make it easy to read. Has anyone else had this issue, and does anyone know how to fix it? Many thanks,Ron

Print 15, stop. Print 15, stop. Print 15, stop. Repeat as needed.

Um......thanks.Actually, that doesnt work either. I'm getting the same problem after 10 pages. But when I try to print something else (a website, for example), it prints out fine. Very frustrating.

I just noticed on the bottom of each page the words "Do Not Duplicate". This may be a stupid question, but how can we be allowed to print these pages if we cannot duplicate them? Or does that refer to something different? Also, if I am allowed to make copies on my printer, am I also allowed to have a printer shop (eg: Kinko's) print them for me?

I know this doesn't help you figure out why you're having the problem, but I just printed 20 pages worth of the manual and didn't have any problems.Can't say I've ever seen your issue, sorry.

AFAIK, you can print all you like or have Kinkos do it, just can't copy and give away or sell. Private use only.

Yep....I forgot about the #1 rule in posting something. Check other posts to see if something similar had been previously entered in the forum.With the price Kinko's wants to print all this, I'll probably just splurge and buy the manual online. Nothing against Kinko's, but it's less hassle this way.
