Printing Jeppview on MacBook
Here is something I just run into.
Tried for a long time to print the Jeppview charts on my Mac. Always a hassle and never a solution.
Changed to Lion (10.7.2) and Acrobat Pro lately
As I run the Jeppview trough Parallels on my Mac to view the program, Jeppview is not native to the Macbook.
I run Lion 10.7.2 on my Macbook (late 2008 model).
Parallels 7.0 from the internet. (Virtual Machine running Windows XP with Jeppview installed).
When I am in Jeppview and I click on an airport code or chart in Jeppview, I click "Print"
That gives me the option to choose a printer in my Macbook side.
I can select e.g. all the charts of that airport in the Jeppview program.
Once selected print and then that printer of the (lion) Macbook side, a printer icon will appear in the dock Right hand Side. You double click that. The printer will be called. A printer window will open up of Lion.
In my case my printer is not connected so the dialog box says: looking for printer.
When I double click on the file in the printer window that needs to be printed, LION will open a preview window of that file. Which is the chart(s) that I selected.
Also preview gives me the choice to open with Acrobat (Pro).
I do.
Then when Acrobat opens, I see the charts and then I can save that in PDF format.
Now I have the file saved on my computer in PDF format.
It goes pretty quick
Good Luck

Hmmm...
...I donīt really understand your problem.
I use a MBP 2011 OS 10.6.8 and parallels 7.0 W7HP32, whenever I connect my printer via USB I get asked wether to connect to MAC OS or Windows. I do have both printer drivers installed, the Windows driver is the one with all the bells and whistles, were the MAC driver cant do really anything useful apart from directly making pdfs...
So I plug in the printer and let it connect to parallels. I could use 'Mac Printer' also, but that wouldn#t give me the printing options I have under Windows...
I have a Dell printer that can print both sides and I do usually print 4 JeppView pages per side, so that I can cover 8 pages on sheet of A4 paper.
