Adeleide insurance cert

blade1

Adeleide emailed my certs to me but I can't print them out.
I first tried over wifi and no joy then plugged the printer into the laptop and still the same.

Is it because of the password or what???

Screenshot it and then paste the screenshot into paint and print that.

Will do so!
Is it normal for it not to print documents with passwords?

I was able to print mine on renewal a couple of weeks ago.

Make sure that the pdf viewer you are using is pointing to your printer not a virtual one, that keeps catching me out and keeps resetting. Once you can view the docs you should be able to print.

No harm in sending a copy to keep on your phone, no idea if it'll keep a cop on the side of the road happy.

Wossack

a pdf can have security settings to disable printing, so might have been done (by mistake?)

go 'File' -> 'Properties', and check the 'Security' tab. You'll see the various restrictions on the doc that are in place.

I turned on the printer there and a sh*t load of copies printed..:pac:

Do you ever have trouble starting your bike in the morning?

None.
Bikes good, printers bad.

One of the reasons I left Adelaide - €40 administration fee.... and then you have to print your own documents? Feck away off.

I questioned them one time about this, if someone was stopped at a checkpoint & produced a cert that was obviously printed off on a cheap inkjet (and let's face it, that's what most of us have )...

"If you need a proper cert we'll post one out.."

Lot of good as you're sitting by the side of the road watching your bike disappear on the back of a tow truck

I've produced a printed copy of my insurance cert in the cop shop before with no issue?

And there's no requirement for you to carry a cert so it shouldn't be an issue at a checkpoint.

A cop won't take your bike. You'll get ten days to produce at a station

Erm... I can assure you that I, or any of my colleagues, would look long & hard at any inkjet printed cert that was produced either on the road - or at the station.

The point I was making is that it's taking the piss to charge administration fees & then expect the customer to do the admin themselves.

Yeah agree with you, it's a bit cheap of them. But let's not exaggerate it, you're bike won't be taken off you. Just don't bring it with you to the station.
