I was thinking of doing that but in fear that it might not work getting the licence back with couple of tight schedules for projects maybe might have to wait to test this option. Once licence is gone its gone until fix is found.

I am wondering if Apple has done this by design. Add different papers sizes for any printer option and then just use for printers you own rather then having to set the sizes for different printers your system is connected to.

I am not well versed on contacting "powers to be" so happy for any of you to do that on my behalf regarding inability to upload licence via licence manager tool.


Unfortunately you seem to be the one having the trouble, so you will have to liaise with the distributor.

It is an issue with your machine/program or your license, so only you can provide the information necessary to fix it.

Actually maybe installing this security update will help.

If not you will have to contact the distributor.

I called Apple about the issue, and they tried to fix it by uninstalling both my printers and re-adding them, with the result that my CD printer no longer prints CD's. I hope a fix will come from somewhere, but currently, Page Setup no longer allows a printer to be chosen on my Sequoia macOS Mac Pro.

Unfortunately that is solution for Windows only.

As these things always go upgrade to OSX keeps the driver in sort of working mode for previous OS, but then taking it out tends to break things. Might have to look at your CD printer manufacturer for latest drivers or even reinstall lates ones again for Sequoia to realise that you have printer in system. Worked for me from time to time in various OSX updates.

So it is, sorry.

 

I would definitely get in touch with you local support then.

I reported this too, and was advised to reset printing services, and reinstall printers, after which CUPS stopped working, and even after today's incremental macOS update, Page Setup does not allow me to choose a printer - still says Any Printer. Not sure whether this is meant to be a feature, but since Apple Help were trying to troubleshoot, probably a bug.

 It seems like many Mac apps have done away with page setup and handle everything in the print dialog. Those apps appear to be working ok, offering both printer and page size selection. But there are many that still use page setup including some from Apple, like Pages. Definitely an Apple problem. I'm sure they know about it, but it's super annoying, and I'm shocked they did not catch it during the long public beta.
