PhotoShop CS2 "Program Error" when printing

I am posting this to the Adobe Forums as well, but thought someone here might have some ideas. am having an intermittent problem printing from PhotoShop CS2 to an Epson 9800. When printing large files (200 MB average) to the Epson, PhotoShop will spool the job, taking about 50% longer than normal, and when complete, displays the following message..."The file XXXX.tif could not be printed because of a program error" No job ever gets to the print que. This happens about 80% of the time when printing. Quitting and restarting PhotoShop generally fixes the problem, and the file can be printed from another computer without issue, so this is not file specific. I have 8GB of RAM installed and PhotoShop running under 100% available memory, cache level at 8, with a dedicated 180GB scratch disk. Memory should NOT be the problem, though I do often have the full layered version of the file open in the background (I am printing from a flattened copy. I have observed that the problem is less likely to occur if no other files are open. I have a second G5 with the exact same software setup (OS, Print Driver and PhotoShop down to the decimal version #) that works perfectly every time. I have run all of the System utilities (Repair Permissions, FSCK, etc), reset the OSX printing system, reset PS preferences, trashed and re installed CS, as well as the Epson printer driver, all with no success. Any other trouble shooting ideas would be greatly appreciated. I would love to avoid a System reinstall.

I suggest whenever you have problems with third-party applications, the first place to start troubleshooting is with the application's documentation, then vendor's web site. Usually their sites have FAQs, lists of known bugs, or application-specific forums similar to these Discussions. Sometimes, unlike the Apple Discussions, the questions are even answered by employees of the vendor.

  • Photoshop CS4 "Program Error" when using Text tool

    Hello. I was having problems with Photoshop displaying a "Program Error" every so often, so I deleted the preference file and all seemed good. But after deleting the preference file for my Photoshop CS4 and re-launching Photoshop, the text tool causes Photoshop to display a Program Error when using the tool. It never did this before. Should I reinstall Photoshop? I am using a Powermac G5 running 10.5.8. I have already tried repairing the disk permissions.
    Thanks

    Thats kinda what I thought too, but the problem started happening randomly. It started when we were trying to use photomerge with large photos. The program just started giving the program errors. I still think it may be a font problem, but without going through my 2000+ fonts and disabling them one by one, how can I resolve this issue?
    Thanks

  • Photoshop gives "Program Error" when I try to open files while VPN

    I think this may be a new one. While VPN on my company network, Photoshop CS cannot open any files. Either drag and drop, double click or even file open command. You get the clock and the message "failed to open because of a Program Error.... " or something close to that. I'm sure it says Program Error though. Works fine if I'm not VPN but soon as I'm on it stops opening files or even creating a new blank canvas gives that error. I checked Adobe forum and nothing there to find about this one. Anyone else have this happen?

    Hi, SSI.
    1. What VPN client are you using?
    As a guess, your VPN client may be blocking a port that PS CS may use for license verification over the Internet. The fact that it works AOK when not using the VPN would tend to support this hypothesis. As to what port it may be attempting to use, I can't say, but you may be able to find this out from Adobe and then work with your firm's networking staff to see if this port can be opened for use when the VPN is active.
    2. You noted that you "checked Adobe forum and nothing there to find about this one." Did you post to the Adobe Photoshop forum? If not, I recommend doing so.
    3. You wrote: "You get the clock and the message "failed to open because of a Program Error.... " or something close to that. I'm sure it says Program Error though."As FYI, in cases such as this, copying down the exact text of the message is helpful.
    Good luck!

  • Photoshop CC program error when opening or placing files. VERY FRUSTRATING PLEASE HELP.

    I'm an advertising graduate student that relies heavily on Adobe programs for my multiple simultaneous projects throughout the school year, specifically Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Muse, Edge Animate and Premiere Pro.
    I'm using a MacBook Pro running OS X Yosemite.
    I have been experiencing an incredibly frustrating issue with Photoshop and Muse, both CC 2014. I'll speak about Photoshop in this thread since, well, this is a Photoshop forum. This has been happening for almost a year now. I figured Adobe would've fixed this problem by now, especially given the myriad of crash reports I send.
    While working in Photoshop, sometimes when I go to place a file I get an error message that says "Could not complete your request because of a program error." It used to be that this error was fatal and I would have no other choice but to force quit out of Photoshop and restart it. We all know how incredibly time-consuming it is for Photoshop to open (especially 10-15 times in one sitting), and being in grad school, time is not something I have a lot of when I have deadlines and projects due.
    This error is still happening and for the same reasons; however, now I can still continue to work on my file, as long as I don't need to open a document or place an image...which doesn't help very much because I'm doing a lot of mockups and composites and need those functionalities. It happens probably 90% of the time when I try to place or open a document.
    For the record, it's a similar issue that's causing Muse to crash as well. When I try to add an image file, it causes the entire program to crash "unexpectedly," as Muse so eloquently puts it.
    Until recently I had kept CS6 on my hard drive and would dig it out to use in place of CC when PSCC would crash; however, someone told me that having both versions was likely the cause for the crashes. After much hesitation, I finally uninstalled all of CS6 from my hard drive the other day (the right way, not into the trash can, since someone is inevitably going to ask that question) and I'm still having this problem, and now I don't have my CS6 version to fall back on and now I'm in a really bad spot.
    I apologize for all the rambling, but I'm really very, very frustrated with this error, and I had to do something while waiting for Photoshop to restart. Someone please help.

    MacOS 10.10? Yeah, Apple is working on that bug.  They already fixed the crash in the open/save dialogs, but have a few more problems to address with the open/save dialogs.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 - Error when printing multiple times

    After printing a photograph cannot print another. Error message: "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents." have to close and reopen the program to print one more.
    I have this program on my laptop as well where it does not have this problem. Have tried reinstalling but problem remains on my desktop.

    thanks for that 1.99jon. I have two printers connected, one which I use for photo printing and the other for docs. The docs one was default. First I discovered that if I used the default everything worked fine on repeat printing, but failed again when I chaged to the photo machine. Second I tried changing the default to the photo machine. Repeat printing fine on that now, bur it is also ok if I change to the docs printer. How weird!!
    Hope I have made this clear enough.

  • Color picker does not work, " program error when I click, photoshop cc

    I am user of photoshiop cc and it worked fine until several days ago but suddenly it shows " program error " when I click color picker, and I can not use changing color. Please help me to resolve this issue.

    There was a bug with photoshop CC concerning the color picker and its swatches. Make sure you have the latest version and then if it still exists, reset your tools in the upper left hand corner which would be the very first icon in the top tool bar. That should fix it. If not let us know and maybe someone can think of something else.

  • Photoshop CS 'Program error' but works in different account

    My version of Photoshop CS suddenly stopped working. It said 'program error' when I try to load any files. Then, after quitting, it failed to reload each time.
    I have tried reinstalling, then uninstalling fully (through Adobe's uninstall procedure). Also, deleting the preferences and font caches but still no luck. So I downloaded the try out version of CS2 and it installed fine. But it now says exactly the same thing '
    I created a new account on the computer and tried it from there - and it worked! So I then copied my preferences to that account and it still worked, so I guess it isn't the preferences.
    It seems there is something wrong with my main account but not sure where to look. Is it easy to transfer all setting and all files to the new account?
    Thanks
    Alan

    I had a lot of grief with this exact problem. I fixed it by deleting my printers in mac OSX preferences. I have not re-added them yet, but since removing the printers I have not had the problem occur since - and this is after an erase and install, an archive and install,upgrading to CSII and calls to Adobe phone support were of no help. Everything else in the CS suite worked, except photshop. Photoshop would work if I created a new user account, but this work-around was not acceptable to me. In desperation, with deadlines looming, I was about to do another erase and fresh install when I found this:
    Solution 6: Re-create your printers in Mac OS X.
    To re-create your printers, first delete them and then add them again.
    To delete your printers:
    1. Open System Preferences from the Apple menu.
    2. Select Print & Fax, and click Printing.
    3. Select each printer in the list and click the delete key (the minus key).
    For instructions on how to add your printers again, see "Setting up to print to a printer" in Mac Help or search Help using the phrase "add a printer."
    http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/331627.html
    That fixed the problem for me and I really hope that helps someone else. This was a terrible and frustrating problem for me, not only am I a design student but I also earn a living using the Adobe software and my mac, and Photoshop is one of my primary tools.

  • HP LASERJET CP1525nw print error when printing online Gmail emails with Google Chrome

    HP LASERJET CP1525nw print error when printing online Gmail emails with Google Chrome. Extra large font sizes and weird formatting issues only when printing emails from Gmail within Chrome. No problems when printing the same email from Gmail+Internet Exolorer or Thunderbird. Using the IE Tab extension in Chrome prints the email correctly but the style of Gmail's message window is completely weird ie: formatting bar is spread out vertically instead of horizontally. I believe it is clear that this is an application specific issue between the HP LASERJET CP1525nw printer and Google Chrome + Gmail. This printing scenario does not occur when printing anything else or when printing via another printer. I would appreciate receiving any suggestions to solve this issue.

  • Windows 7: CS6: Getting a Program Error when flipping foreground and background colors

    Yesterday, I started getting an error when trying to set the default colors and then flipping them. I also get a program error when I try to click on the foreground color and manually assigning it with white.
    This is a Windows 7 Ultimate, with PS CS6.
    I closed the program twice and ran into the same problem, then rebooted and got the same errors.  As far as I can tell, this is the only tool or feature acting up, other than the actions which have this step in them.
    Looking for an easy fix first, of course.  Like maybe deleting the Prefs file? Mac people seem to have to do that regularly.
    But, if nothing works, will I need to uninstall PS and reinstall it? Would that also mean I'd have to install all of my filter packages again, too?
    Thanks in advance,
    M. Jackson

    Noel,
    To date, I have only restarted PS, and only rebooted and restarted PS.
    I have not done any other steps. I am open to anything that keeps me from having to reload, mainly because of all of the filters, presets, actions, and so forth I'd have to find to reload from scratch.
    And, please note, I am on a PC. The Command-Shift-Option is a Mac command. I assume, on a PC that would be Control-Shift-Alt?
    Thanks again,
    Mike Jackson

  • Error message or program crashing when printing on Epson printer

    In July 2008, I upgraded my computer from a MacBook to a MacBook Pro (and bought a Time Machine so that all my files are backed up regularly!) I then bought my wife a MacBook Pro in November 2008. We both used to have iBook G4s.
    We have an Epson EPL-6200 Laser Printer that we print from using our Airport Express. It used to work fine printing documents from any program and printing wirelessly from the iBook G4 computers we had when we bought the printer around three years ago.
    But since I have switched to a MacBook and now a MacBook Pro, I have all kinds of problems printing on the Epson EPL-6200 printer. At first, my MacBook did not print remotely at all. I had long conversations with both Apple and Epson, knowing there was a problem with the Epson driver. To top it off, the problems seemed worst with Microsoft Office, so both of them also said it was Microsoft's fault!
    Now that Epson has upgraded its drivers and I have dowloaded the latest one, and switched to a MacBook Pro, I can print some files easily -- Word documents now print immediately, although I get an error message saying that the printer is not connected. But trying to print from other programs such as Firefox either takes a very long time (around 5-8 minutes for one page) or causes the program to crash.
    Any ideas? The strange thing is that my wife's computer and mine are exactly the same (running Mac OS X version 10.5.6) but behave slightly differently when printing. I can print from Firefox, albeit after a long time per page, whereas if she tries to print from her computer in that program it instantly crashes.
    I guess we still have driver issues with the Epson EPL-6200.
    But I have looked on the Apple support forums and there seem to be a lot of printer-related issues like this. Do you guys have any suggestions? Or is there a printer that will work well with our MacBook Pros, an Airport Express and/or Time Machine (we have both) and when printing remotely?
    All the best,
    Alex

    hey,
    well, i use the below machines with the current mac os (10.5.6).
    i (kind of often) had issues with the network printer epson epl-6200.
    of which every issue could be resolved by myself, more or less quickly.
    i.e. until the last update (10.5.6).
    none of my machines is able to get anything through the network to the printer.
    at least they don't get the printer to print a page.
    today i spent (almost) the whole day, trying out things to get it fixed this time.
    none of it worked.
    just to let you know:
    i can access the printer through its http-interface.
    i can ping it.
    it gets recognized by the printer/fax-dialog in the system-preferences.
    here's what i tried so far:
    i tried to install the osx driver for the epl-6200 with every single protocol that's available in osx (i.e.: Appletalk, IPP, Bonjour, EPSON (IP), etc.)
    i of course tried to update the driver with the latest software available on the epson-website. and did the thing with the different protocols again.
    i tried the "generic" postscript driver of osx, too.
    then it was getting interesting:
    i tried to get "cups" for the epl-6200. i don't want to get into details here, but to drop some names:
    foomatic-rip (combined with ghostscript)
    http://linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/foomatic
    gutenprint (doesn't have an epl-6200 driver included)
    pxlmono (doesn't have an epl-6200 driver included)
    to sum that up:
    there are two drivers on the "openprinting"-site (foomatic). but one is (of course) the official epson driver.
    but:
    there is a "third-party" driver downloadable on that website.
    http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-EPL-6200
    well, i downloaded it, installed the required additional software (foomatic + ghostscript), all very fine. i could choose it in the osx printer setup menu.
    but:
    my printer still won't print a single page.
    the error messages i got:
    other than the above post none of my programs ever crashed, or was "dead slow".
    but:
    the printing job got constantly stopped, i could restart it, but it was then stopped again. without any error message.
    there was the same thing with the halt of the printer (also monitored in the printing cue window). i could restart it, but it would stop again. without any error message.
    but i also got two decent error messages: :))
    the first involved the pdftoescpage.app, either it was failing (shown in the printer cue window), or it was crashing (i got the error message in a separate window popping up). according to folks on the net this malfunction involved user permissions, so i to set up the "right" permissions (giving everybody the right to do anything (rwx) - i know i shouldn't have :)) ). but it didn't help. still crashing or failing.
    the second decent error message, finally:
    "double free" - what that meant, i cannot tell.
    conclusion:
    i don't know. :))
    required action:
    i will await the next osx update, and hope it'll be fixed then. :))
    good night, y'all
    p.s.: ahh, if anybody knows anything i didn't and should try. please drop a line. thx

  • Program error when try to use 3D repousse in Photoshop CS5 extended?

    Please help!!!! Unable to use 3D repousse Photoshop CS5 Extended  (my system info is described below)
    I tried almost everything that is available in Adobe library help, also re-installed programs as requested by Adobe support (suspected to get rid of me), it did not solve the problem.
    I used to have 3D capabilities, and also crop tool worked well before (now it changes all layers when using crop even in background).  My PC is same,  nor I downloaded plugins or changed video cards (these things are too advanced for me!), also restored preferences many times.
    My system makes automatic updates, reviewed graphics and adobe as recommended.
    OpenGL settings is odd …only can access basic, other modes are not highlighted (normal or advanced).
    ERRORS (for 3D Text)    
    1-“Your 3D scene now exceeds the limits of lights and/or textures for the video card’s hardware-accelerated 3D rendering. As long as the limits are exceeded, 3D rendering will be done in software only, and some features (e.g Repousse)will be disabled.”
    2- “Your video card does not meet the requirements for hardware-accelerated 3D rendering. All 3D will be rendered with software only “
    3-“ Could no complete the text layer command because of a program error”
    ERROR (for object)
    Open GL/GPU HARDWARE ACCELERATION IS CURRENTLY  DISABLED. 3D WILL NOW BE RENDERED WITH SOFTWARE ONLY.  TO ENABLE OPEN/GL  ACCELERATION, GO TO PREFERENCES > PERFORMANCE TAB AND CHECK THE “ENABLE OPENGL GRAWING” CHECK BOX.
    Is it possible that I have a GPU Sniffer? all these terms I have learned recently =)   but I have a healthy & capable graphic card and accepted by adobe standards.

    thank you for replying...but it seems an easy answer again  like one given by support....I had photoshop working perfectly before with same video card, I think in one project I clicked something in program (photoshop)that was not ready to correct it by itself... It should be available for the program to give warning several times to the user, I do not know what made Photoshop to disable OpenGL settings, and not be able to reverse action!!!!!  How do I change a GPU sniffer?  I an not a tech, all these things I just learned reading....had spent hundreds of hours....really dissapointed of Adobe and  its support....it is not fair to sell an expensive program without support, it seems to me that  I know now more than a live customer support.
