Printing Coupon from Coupons.com and Bricks
Mac OS X (10.6.5)
Mac OS X (10.6.5)
I only print coupons for myself and adhere to the limit and don't make copies. As I said in a previous post, I have no trouble printing coupons when using Firefox as my browser. which is the opposite of what occurred only a few weeks ago. Since Firefox upgraded to 5.0 I can print with no problem, but when I try to print through Safari it is obvious that coupons.com thinks I have a pc because the directions are for a pc. So I just use Firefox and I'm fine with that. I have no idea why this change occured, but can only assume it has something to do with the upgrade to 5.1.

Found a work around to print coupons from coupons.com but still cannot print bricks coupons.
The problem is Safari 5.1 (or the couponprinter plugin needs to get updated). I updated Safari to 5.1 and lost the ability to print coupons from coupons.com and bricks coupons.
I entered time machine and restored Safari to version 5.0.5. and was able to print from coupons.com
I haven't found a way yet to print bricks coupons. It keeps asking me to install the coupon printer.
Yes, I agree and think it is Safari 5.1. I just downloaded Firefox 5.0.1 onto my Mac and can print coupons now! I am very relieved and glad that at least one browswer works My Safari 5.1 browser will not even load the homepage of coupons.com.
I'm completely frustrated. Been trying to download the coupon printer all day. Have googled everything I can think of. Tried with OSX 10.6.8 using Mozilla 5.0/FF 3.6.19 - I've downloaded the installer and when I click on a coupon to print that's through the Bricks site it freezes my FF. I have to Force Quit FF in order to get away from the screen. ANY suggestions are appreciated!!
PS - I'm a pretty new Mac user and not very tech-savvy so may ask a lot of questions!!!! Beware!!
I also tried using Safari with no luck as well.
I just found the issue with printing from our Mac. If you have the following file in your system please delete it then reinstall the coupon printer driver.
Delete this file:
/Library/Application Support/Coupons/cpnprt2.cid
Then go here and re-download and re-install the coupons.com print driver:
http://ftp.coupons.com/safari/MacCouponPrinter.dmg
Hope this helps someone.
Wish it were my issue, but the file doesn't exist on my installation. Was hoping for a fix. Thanks for posting.
I too deleted that file and a no go for me. Still can't get it to print. It goes to the Printer but lists the page as a Error in the printer window
I was having coupon printing problems after installing Lion. After a lot of research I realized that Lion does not include Java. Once I downloaded and activated Java I was able to print coupons once again.
I posted a tutorial so other people can avoid some frustration. http://www.mac-software-tutorials.com/coupon-printing-in-lion.html
But now some people have commented that although printing from Coupons.com is working - the coupons are printing very small.
I am not having this problem, but I am wondering if anyone out there has a solution for this issue.
After installing Java I was still not able to print from Coupons.com and after a lot of reading on the web came across a solution that worked for me!
Right click on Safari in Finder (not the Task Bar) and select 'Get Info'. Put a check mark next to the line that reads 'Open in 32-bit mode'.
That's all it took for me to be able to print coupons!
WOOOOHOOOOOO!!! YOU ARE A ROCKSTAR!!!!! IT WORKED!! I've been so completely frustrated not being able to print from coupons.com and having to go to my super-slow desktop has been so frustrating! The other "fixes" people posted didn't work for me but this did!!!! Thank you SOOOOOO much!!
When I switched to 32-bit mode I could not even get the web page to fully load.
Can you help me with this same coupon printing issues Im going nuts
I have tried everything on here also. It is still printing really small!!!! Any other ideas?
I am having the same problem with my coupons printing tiny! I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Safari 5.1.1 and Firefox 8.0 and when I try to print, get the "/usr/libexec/cups/filter/CouponConvertor_v2 failed" message. As suggested on another discussion thread, I tried printing coupons through AOL Desktop for Mac. Not really a solution - just a workaround. The coupons will actually print through AOL Desktop, but they are coming out tiny, about a quarter of the normal size. I don't think any store will accept these! Multiple e-mails to Coupons.com have not yielded any results. I am printing to an Epson CX-4200. If anyone can help me print from Bricks and Coupons.com I would be so grateful! I have not been able to print these coupons since the summer, and this is extremely frustrating to this coupon mom! Thanks!
