Any one have success printing consistatly to a network (HP 8150dn) printer, it seems all page setups are all screwed up. When I print everything looks like it's going to print the light on the printer is blinking the all the sudden... NOTHING it just stops. No errors or warnings.

Any Ideas?

I've had printing problems with OS X and FM too.

I had it printing for a while then one day it just stopped. Not sure what was the problem (printing to a HP 1050). I was just doing development on OSX and the system was moved to OS 9 when done, where it print fine.

Printing in OSX is a little flaky, and so in FMP for OSX.

Uncheck the option "Collated" in print dialog.

It worked for me.

Have had the same problem with Lexmark Optra S 1255

Could be a silly thought, but...

Is your printer driver updated?

My past experience with print jobs where everything goes normally (no error messages, all the right lights blink on and off) except that no paper comes out, is usually due to the printer running out of memory. I've seen comments from others with this problem printing in OSX. I'm guessing that the driver is generating a postscript file that's too big for the printer to handle. I would try a test with simpler (smaller) output and see how that works.

Another note - it is possible on most PS printers, to have it commanded not to print PS Errors. This may be on, so it may be generating a PS Error, and just not printing it

Yes, that's how I tracked down my printing errors. I didn't mention switching on the error logging, because I'm not sure how it's done in OSX. (My experience with OSX was very brief. I used it for about a week to see what all the excitement was about, and then went back to OS9.) In OS9 it's one of the options in the print dialog. I wouldn't want to assume that it's in the same place in OSX.
