if your driver has an option called ‘Disable PostScript Passthrough'. When this is turned on, the driver generates the PostScript data rather than letting the application do it. Activating it might solve the problem. I once got rid of an ioerror by cleaning up the hard disk of my RIP. Virus scanners can be another source of ioerrors because they try to intercept the creation of a file and cause a conflict with Distiller or RIP software. On a forum I read about a user who got rid of ioerrors by (temporarily) deactivating Norton Anti-virus. Konika Minolta printers such as the C550 and C351 seem to occasionally suffer from this error. According to this thread on the b4print forums it is the PS driver that gives this error, the PCL driver is processing jobs correctly. Switching to that driver may be an acceptable work-around, but make sure the output is as expected since PCL and PostScript are two completely different beasts. 9 August 2013 2 Comments » 2 responses to "PostScript error: ioerror" Justin says: January 20, 2009 at 5:59 pm This is a common error I get when sending a large amount of data to an old Tobisha postscript color printer.

I am a desktop support engineer for a large company here in the UK. I have an issue http://forum.support.xerox.com/t5/Printing/Syntax-Errors-on-Xerox-3500-Printers/td-p/19080 with 3500 printers syntax erroring on random documents. I am told by our problem management that there is nothing we can do as the printers are rubbish, but I dont belive this.Users are receiving errors when printing documents to Xerox 3500 Printers, some of these have been seen on 7400’s too.On a 3500 - Printing PS3 is displayed on the printer for around 30 seconds maybe more. Nothing prints and error printing is displayed on the user’s computer. Rebooting the printer seems to resolve this however the issue will return.Sometimes only half of a document will print (This includes windows test pages). Sometimes the page will duplex and display the following error message on the reverse side –---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ERROR: SyntaxerrorOFFENDING COMMAND: cvt < fpgm: `1 here for a quick overview of the site Help Center Detailed answers to any questions you might have Meta Discuss the workings and policies of this site About Us http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10409897/ioerror-input-output-error-when-printing Learn more about Stack Overflow the company Business Learn more about hiring developers or posting ads with us Stack Overflow Questions Jobs Documentation Tags Users Badges Ask Question x Dismiss Join the Stack https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/21611857/Problem-printing-Adobe-PDF-document-to-certain-printers.html Overflow Community Stack Overflow is a community of 4.7 million programmers, just like you, helping each other.

I am trying to determine the cause of the exception being raised (or at least, better understand it) and how to handle it correctly. When executing the following line of Python (in a 2.6.6 interpreter, running on CentOS 5.5): print error ioerror offending >> sys.stderr, 'Unable to do something: %s' % command The exception is raised (traceback omitted): IOError: [Errno 5] Input/output error For context, this is generally what the larger function is trying to do at the time: from subprocess import Popen, PIPE import sys def run_commands(commands): for command in commands: try: out, err = Popen(command, shell=True, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE).communicate() print >> sys.stdout, out if err: raise Exception('ERROR -- an error occurred when executing this command: %s --- err: %s' % (command, err)) except: print >> sys.stderr, 'Unable to do something: %s' % command run_commands(["ls", "echo foo"]) The >> syntax is not particularly familiar to me, it's not something I use often, and I understand that it is perhaps the least preferred way of writing to stderr. However I don't believe the alternatives would fix the underlying problem. From the documentation I have read, IOError 5 is often misused, and somewhat loosely defined, with different operating systems using it to cover different problems. The best I can see in my case is that the python process is no longer attached to the terminal/pty. As best I can tell nothing is disconnecting the process from the stdout/stderr streams - the terminal is for Help Receive Real-Time Help Create a Freelance Project Hire for a Full Time Job Ways to Get Help Ask a Question Ask for Help Receive Real-Time Help Create a Freelance Project Hire for a Full Time Job Ways to Get Help Expand Search Submit Close Search Login Join Today Products BackProducts Gigs Live Careers Vendor Services Groups Website Testing Store Headlines Experts Exchange > Questions > Problem printing Adobe PDF document to certain printers Want to Advertise Here? Solved Problem printing Adobe PDF document to certain printers Posted on 2005-10-28 Fonts-Typography Productivity Apps 1 Verified Solution 10 Comments 6,816 Views Last Modified: 2013-12-03 We receive pdf files from a customer of ours on a regular basis. It looks like they have it set up to use some kind of a default document that then allows them to enter data in the document as a sort of form. When we try to print the document on certain printers, the template part of the page comes out, but the form data does not. So, we see the columns and lines in the document, but the numbers don't print. The document prints (without the form data) and then a page follows that reads: ERROR: ioerror OFFENDING COMMAND: flushfile STACK: -filestream- -filestream- -filestream- -filestream- -filestream- -savelevel- I've tried updating the print driver on one of the printers in question, but to no avail.
