Error in printing Buffer with parcels highlighted in graphics layer

CarlosVulgamott

Good afternoon forum friends!

I was hoping someone could help us with a.   Our current software version is ArcGIS Server 10.1 and we are using the ESRI JavaScript 3.6 API.

We have two major issues 1) printing text symbol graphics when exporting a map and 2) we get an error in printing when we buffer a parcel and trying to print all the highlighting graphics layer to a map. 

1) Text Issue: When printing a map with graphic text symbols the graphic is not captured there for it will not display on the printed map.
We are not seeing any error issues it just appears that the graphic is not being captured. 

2) Buffering issue:  We get an error in printing when we buffer a parcel and trying to print all the highlighting graphics layer to a map. 
Error message:  JS ??? Error:

Print Task Snippet:
//CREATE PRINT TEMPLATE
    var template = new esri.tasks.PrintTemplate();
    template.exportOptions = {
        width: 530,
        height: 620,
        dpi: 96
    };
    template.format = "jpg"; // pdf | png32 | png8 | jpg | gif | eps | svg | svgz ;
    template.layout = "MAP_ONLY";
    template.preserveScale = true;
    template.showAttribution = false;

    //CREATE PRINT PARAMS
    var params = new esri.tasks.PrintParameters();
    params.map = pMap;
    params.template = template;

    //EXECUTE PRINT
    if (printTask) {
        printTask.execute(params, getMapImageForPDFResult, getMapImageForPDFError);

I see this is old but using the Javascript 3.9 API I get the same error message. I have one polygon and thats it. It renders on the map fine but get "Invalid r value in color: 0." when trying to print.

Actually. All it prints is the base map. The dynamic map service contents also render fine but don't show up in the PDF. the dynamic map service layer doesn't generate any errors though.

Of note. Zero is not an invalid red value.

Heh. As always. as soon as I post I fix it. Well. The error message anyway. If you pass something like "#ffffff" it will render ok but not print. For printing to work you need to use dojo.Color("#ffffff").
