Ventura: Filemaker 19 Printing Problem

This work around will allow you to print all FileMaker Pro Records being browsed in OSX Ventura:

Go to File > Save/Send Records As > PDF >

In the new window, select "Records being browsed" and save.

The saved PDF file will print all records properly.

Cheers!

How is the Kyocera added? Using a vendor driver? Does this happen when saving to PDF or opening in Preview? Are you able to test with an AirPrint printer?

If it doesn't happen when when saving to PDF or with an AirPrint printer, you might want to talk to Kyocera first.

The other option is Apple feedback, in which case you'll have to add as much information as possible about how the printer is set up.

Feedback - macOS - Apple

Give this a try: boot into Safe Mode according to How to use safe mode on your Mac and test to see if the problem persists. Reboot normally and test again.

NOTE 1: Safe Mode boot can take up to 3 - 5 minutes as it's doing the following; 

• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed

• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party kernel/extensions from loading)

• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically

• Disables user-installed fonts 

• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files

NOTE 2: if you have a wireless keyboard with rechargeable batteries connect it with its charging cable before booting into Safe Mode. This makes it act as a wired keyboard as will insure a successful boot into Safe Mode.

Only works for me on Monterey, not Ventura. No matter what I do, just the first record prints. But if I use the Save Records as PDF script it works for me. If folks have trouble, that might work for them too.

Just one step, as easy as scripts get.

I am working with FMP16 on Venrtura. I have the same issue not being able to print record being browsed. But, I did find a work around.

Select the Print: to "Records being browsed"

Goto the (Preset) Default Setting menu

Save current setting as preset

Create new preset (name it what ever you want). select all printers and Print Job Preset

Print using new preset name

It worked for me. Good luck on FMP 19

You've select to print only the current record, not all of the records being browsed.

This issue with printing lists is extremely frustrating.

If the issue is the "Classic" page layout, I think it's a major mistake to discontinue it. I have databases I created 30 years ago in Classic. Telling me that I can't use it to print lists is just dumb. Eliminating it was dumb.

I was able to print after saving to .pdf. It's a clumsy work-around.

Put a button on the layout with a Save Records as PDF script attached and it'll print them all that way in Ventura.

Have you tried from Safe Mode?

“But if I use the Save Records as PDF script it works for me. If folks have trouble, that might work for them too.”

Hi Dr.,

Thank you for testing and reporting whether it happens in the other cases.

If other people are experiencing this with different printers, probably AirPrint printers among them, this sounds like it could be a problem between the new print dialog and Filemaker (and their application settings).

One possible workaround, given the new dialog, is to see if selecting what you want - all records or one - and then toggling the disclosure triangle - closing and re-opening it - causes a change in behavior. Worth a try?

I've made a special layout for printing records with just the fields needed. The default is "Records being browser" and they print as shown on the screen.

Using a print layout I don't get the top button bar or bottom bar on the print.
