Print as an image is a workaround, not a solution. If print as image prints, the PDF file is OK.
The trick here is that Acrobat does the ripping work instead the printer. However, as you saw, print as image does not produce the same quality and it adds to the printing time.
Your problem looks very much like a printer memory‘s problem. As a first diagnose, I would say that the printer is running out of memory during the print.
In mac OSX "El Capitan", I discovered that if you go into the print dialogue box, you can select either the B&W print option or the Color/B&W "auto" mode under the "Basic" settings, AND then if you also go to advanced settings and select "Low" for the improved barcode print option, that the native Mac OSX printer drivers will then print straight B&W text. with the barcode print option set to "Off", it only prints blank pages in either auto color/B&W or forced B&W mode for pages that contain fonts that are grayscale.
Alternatively, you can manually set your default font color to RBG=0,0,0 (for new docs) or select all the text and change its color to RBG=0,0,0 and then use either the auto color/B&W mode or forced B&W mode, and it should print black font just fine.
everything else prints fine. the print dialog box pops up and goes away. it is isolated to acrobat DC pro. have to print, someone please help. there are lots of posts online about similar issue so hopefully Adobe has resolved it
This has been a while but whatever I did it started working so thanks for the input.
Not possible.
Hi Gmcspp,
Sorry for the delay in response.
Try setting the color profile under Preferences > Color Management and see if that works.
Thanks,

Dear All,
I experienced the same problem printing to Adobe but I resolved it by making sure that the path to the folder I was saving the Adobe file does not have any special character and it worked.
So, I advise that you save the Adobe file into a folder whose path (including the file name) has no special characters like (, ), <, >, !, etc. Try it and let me know if it works. My e-mail is [Moderator: Personal information removed ]
Thank you all.

I went through all the links and the only thing that seems to help was changing the CMYK profile from CGATS21_CRPC6.icc (GraCol profile from Idealliance) to Photoshop 5 Default CMYK. After I did that, the output preview stayed on that profile. However, I need it to stay on my CGATS21 profile. If I have it set like the attached screenshot.
The only type of PDF that will come up with the correct profile are the "X" series files that have the output intent profile enabled.
That's not what I'm looking for. I'm looking to have my CMYK profile (CGATS21) to be active any time I open a PDF.

Hello Farzad,
Sorry for the delayed response and inconvenience caused. Creating multiple Adobe PDFPrinter instances, and having different printer preferences is not an Adobe design behavior, and multiple PDF Printer instances may or may not have same preferences.
There is no such workflow to make changes and have multiple PDFPrinters with different preferences.
However, if you wish, you can file a feature request for the same to have multiple PDFPrinter with different Printer preferences through Feature Request/Bug Report Form
Feel free to update this discussion for any further assistance.

Bonjour,
J'aimerais pouvoir imprimer uniquement les champs d'un formulaire PDF, et non l'arrière plan. J'ai vu qu'une telle fonctionnalité existait, mais je n'y ai pas accès.
Est-ce dépendant d'une version particulière d'Adobe ? Pro par exemple ? Je dispose d'Adobe Reader DC
Merci pour vos réponses
