    Stopped - 'Filter' failed

    I have never gotten this error before on any previous upgrade, or in general. I have had many different printers through the years without having a problem like this. Moral of my story, don't forget the backup!!!

    Stopped - 'Filter' failed

    Actually, the best solution would have been to have a backup available to go back to. It turns out it wasn’t actually the system, but the drivers, as you mentioned.

    Stopped - 'Filter' failed

    For anyone else that needs a solution, this is what worked for us... Instead of using the 5.1.1 HP Driver bundle, we used the 3.1 HP Driver bundle. I don't know if the issue would exist with Sonoma or not, I'm just happy to have found a working solution.

    Stopped - 'Filter' failed

    We are a small sheetfed shop. We have no need for imposition. This is the proper workflow for a shop our size. The one thing I should do is find a system with a dedicated RIP and output. Even a DFE requires a PDF or Postscript, and neither of those are working right now. The Digital Front End...

    I desparately need a solution... I am getting the error "Stopped - 'Filter' failed" when printing. How the heck am I supposed to get separations of my art with the correct line screen and dpi without postscript? This affects just about every printer in the world, right? Specs... MacBook Pro...

    Stopped, UserName, "Filter" failed ––– After update to Sonoma on Mac

    After updating to Sonoma, I keep getting the message 'Stopped, UserName, "Filter" failed' when I print to my HP LaserJet 5100 for Plates. Everything was working great until Sonoma. I tried Resetting the Print System, and adding the printers again, but to no avail. I do not have a backup (before...

    Visual indicator for pressman

    This is a good idea... Maybe for the "clear" inks or coatings you could create a striped texture, which would be a little more obvious that there is ink in that square.

    Add Tonal Control data to plate

    Anyone know a way to add the Tonal Control/Curve Adjustments to each plate? I'd like to add it as a variable mark, but can't seem to find a way. See my attached image.

    Loose Page Output to PDF

    I attached an example of what I'm talking about. I need the chart at the top to be the full width of the 11x8.5. Instead, it is reducing along with the artwork.

    Loose Page Output to PDF

    How do I use Loose Page Output to PDF (Vector output) and keep either a Sheet Mark and/or Page Mark at 100%, when I want the art to reduce to fit an 8.5x11? Everything works great, except the Sheet Mark and/or Page Mark reduces along with the art. I need the mark to stay at 100%. It's a header...

    Polyester plates printed on Laser printers

    Do you have any recommendations as to where to get the best deals on the OEM toner? I have a reman. toner that came with the HP5100, but it may be causing a bit of a breakup on a certain area of the sheet, so I'd like to rule that out before sending the machine back. Any help would be appreciated.
