Re: [Framers] Windows 10 updates disables FM printing

[Ken Poshedly]

Art,
Thanks for the comment. Like I said, Windows 7 was nice and stable, but 
Microsoft being what it is, yes, they can sabotage anything they want 
(including abandon it) and not answer to anybody because they "own" it, whether 
it's Windows 7 or 10. I recall glitches in a manual I was working on for a 
client company back about 10 years ago and Word glitched; I was on page 125 or 
something when all of a sudden when I tagged a listed item "bullet" from the 
list of formats, every bullet in all of the various lists in the book 
disappeared. All the indents remained and the assigned format name remained but 
no bullet could be found anywhere in that book. Thank heavens for Ctrl-Z and 
they all reappeared. I forgot how I got around that bugaboo.

I posted a query about this on the techw-list and the reply I got was because 
it's Microsoft and it does what it does and doesn't worry about collateral 
damage or consequences.

As for this Windows 10 problem, I talked with the IT guy where I work and he 
showed me on his own platform how to pull up the "Programs & Features" and 
"Uninstall Updates" screens so when the next updates do their self-installation 
and if this printer problem recurs, I hopefully should be able to locate the 
particular update to uninstall.

Re: [Framers] Windows 10 updates disables FM printing

[Ken Poshedly]

"Quills",
Your sarcasm is noted. I'm just looking for help trying to ward off future 
problems with Windows 10 updates. And this is the first update since I was 
"forced" into Windows 10 that has caused this problem.

Going back to Windows 7 (which I liked) might be tempting, but in the long run, 
it'll wind up just like Windows XP, forgotten and unsupported.

Re: [Framers] Windows 10 updates disables FM printing

Maybe the Samsung C1810 is a postscript printer. Postscript printers 
create a PS file and then send it to the printer.

Re: [Framers] Windows 10 updates disables FM printing

[Shmuel Wolfson]

A recent Windows 10 update broke the ability to make PDFs from 
FrameMaker. Is that what you were trying to do? The solutions is to 
revert back to Windows 10 version 1709. I think the other solution was 
to switch to CYMK. I'm not sure about the second option. I went with the 
1st option. I can't find the webpage where it said how to do this. Adobe 
is aware of the problem and working on it.

By the way, it prints a Word file just fine. And NO, I did not diddle

After doing some online searching, I learned how to go back to the

But now I'm paranoid about Windows 10 updates once more screwing with

So what gives and how to end this predicament? Details please.

Re: [Framers] Windows 10 updates disables FM printing

[Robert Lauriston]

Windows 10 is spyware and the auto-upgrade routine in Windows 7 and
8.1 is a virus. You can install a tool such as GWX or Never10 to block
the virus.

Would (go back to Windows 7) if I could but can’t so I won’t. Windows 10 did an 
automatic install when I had Windows 7, and I don’t want to repeat that debacle.

[Framers] Windows 10 updates disables FM printing

[Ken Poshedly]

Here's something I didn't need to have happen on a Saturday night. 
And I suspect the cause seems to be Windows 10 updates.


Worked on some FM 10.0 files Saturday morning and all was well and 
was able to print to my Samsung C1810W color laserjet printer.


I knew Windows had downloaded updates the night before because I was 
prompted to do a restart. I postponed the restart until I completed 
my work. Sometime later in the day on Saturday when I was out cutting 
the lawn, the automatic restart occurred and the Windows 10 updates 
finished installing.


Late that night when I tried to print in FrameMaker, I got a pop-up 
with "FrameMaker" in the top left corner and the statement, "Cannot 
print because the selected default printer is not compatible with 
FrameMaker. (Cannot query escape 768.)" This also occurred when I 
tried to print to the "Adobe" printer as well.


By the way, it prints a Word file just fine. And NO, I did not diddle 
with FM or do anything else today with it.


After doing some online searching, I learned how to go back to the 
previous Windows 10 "build" and now can print once more from FM.


But now I'm paranoid about Windows 10 updates once more screwing with 
my settings. I am aware that I can somehow install only the updates I 
want but not others.


So what gives and how to end this predicament? Details please.
