CS3 won't print anymore

Since I installed LR2, CS3 won't print any more. I worked already with LR1.4 and LR2beta.
When I give a print command in CS3 I get two warnings: first that I have to install a printer and second that the print command can not be completed because of a Adobe Color Engine problem.
But the "Print one Copy" command does work.
I deleted all the prefslists of CS3, LR2 and even LR1,4. Didn't work.
My platform is an old macG5 and Leopard (no timemachine installed)
Any suggestions??

I have fixed the problem. After running the maintenance scripts photoshop is printing again.

  • CS3 won't print

    I've suddenly run into a situation where PS CS3 won't print. The Print dialog comes up as usual, but after making the selections and hitting Print, the print job never makes it to the printer(s).I'm using Epson printers and running Mac OSX Leopard. I can print to the printers from other applications, and even from PS CS2. I've checked my scratch disk for space, so the images can be spooled, and have plenty of RAM available. The size of the images doesn't seem to matter.
    I recently upgraded to the latest CUPS drivers, but I don't think that should affect PS. Epson says that the printers have built in support in Leopard, so no individual drivers can be downloaded. I would think that PS would be using thebult in drivers that shiop with the OS and not the Gutenprint drivers, anyway.
    Has anyone had this problem before, or a solution?
    Thanks in advance
    William

    CUPS and Gutenprint are two different animals, though the former is needed to use the latter.
    You'll find the uninstaller here:
    http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
    CAUTIONARY NOTE for CS4 users: If you have an Epson printer model for which Epson does not offer a 16-bit printer driver (for instance the Epson 2200 don't know of any others off-hand)), the latest version of Gutenprint, 5.2.2, will allow you to use 16-bit printing in Tiger and Leopard. In that case, you may definitely want to keep Gutenprint. I've been running it with no problems for about a week.
    Gutenprint 5.2.2, released some two weeks ago, appears very stable and offers several bug fixes from earlier Gutenprint 5.2.x releases.
    On the other hand, don't take this as a riniging endorsement of 16-bit printing (yet) if you're not already experimenting with it. I'm very happy with preliminary results, but it does slow printing considerably, as you're sending an awful lot more information to the printer. :)

  • Acrobat CS3 won't print through XServe print server

    Acrobat CS3 won't print through our XServe print server when connected by AppleTalk. Everything else prints fine. You can print the same .pdf with AppleTalk through Preview. And you can print with Acrobat through any other protocol but AppleTalk. The job spools, looks like it's going through but never reaches it's destination. We have 19 printers so it's not a single printer being cranky, and 35 Macs so it's not just a single Mac. All our users are on Active Directory and all are on the same subnet and VLAN.

    Hello Scott,
    If you look at the cups error log on the Xserve, does it give any clues as to why the Acrobat spool file is failing? Hopefully there is some indication as to which process is failing and why.
    We're not using AppleTalk on our Xserve. All printer connections are set via LPR so I cannot offer any advice based on experience.

  • Canon Selphy CP730 won't print anymore

    After installing the latest iPhoto (7.0.2) my Canon Selphy CP730 Compact Photo Printer won't print photo's from iPhoto anymore. The light on the printer blinks for a second, goes red and then back to green, while an icon in the Dock shows the CP730 with a red exclamation mark.
    The strange thing is that I can print from all my other applications to this device. And with the previous iPhoto there where no problems either. I already reinstalled the drivers for the CP730, without succes.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Michel

    Michel:
    Try deleting the various printing pref files. One would be located in the User/Library/Preferences/ByHost folder. It would look something like this: com.apple.print.Cache.0016cb3791b6.plist (number will be different). Also com.apple.print.PrintingPrefs.plist and any obvious Canon prefs for the printer. There will be a lot of other Canon prefs but look of any that are obviously linked to the printer. You may not fine any, however.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • HP P1005 won't print anymore?

    We have a HP P1005 Laserjet (just out of warranty!) that has suddenly stopped responding to print commands. Ran the HP Diagnostic - which usually resolves any print que issues for us but still won't print! Then tried to STOP/START the print spooler manually using the SERVICES.MSC commands but also fails to print. I've re-booted the pc (running XP SP3) and also re-booted the printer....but still NO GO!! This was working fine yesterday and today....it won't run.
    Any suggestions as to what to try next or am I looking at a new printer?

    I have experienced a similar problem. I installed a P1005 in April 2009. The locaally attached USB printer ran fine until December. Then, the printer started hanging on print jobs and could not be cleared. I downloaded the new device driver from HP's website.
    The  printer works fine when logged into the computer as the Network Administrator. However, when the user log's in without Network Admin privileges, the printer does not work. I had to set the local user up with Network Administrator privileges in order to make the printer work. After I got the printer to work in this fashion, as a test, I removed the Admin privileges from the local user's account profile, and then the local user could not print to the P1005. I had to restore the Network Admin privileges to the local user in order to make the printer work.
    This is not an acceptable condition in a network Microsoft Server 2003 Domain environment, as it violates all kinds of security protocols.
    How can the device settings be adjusted to allow the local user to use this locally attached USB printer without the need of Network Administrator privileges?

  • IPad4/iPhone5 won't print anymore

    When I first got the iPhone5 and iPad4, they came with IOS6. At that time they worked just fine with my CM1415fnw color LaserJet MFC. But that stopped once they got updated to IOS6.0.1. Now all I get is a printer halt saying that the paper won't feed. The file is in the buffer, all I have to do is physically acknowledge the error at the printer control panel, and the file prints just fine. But that should not be necessary. Apple says it's a HP problem, that HP has not yet issued a firmware update that will work properly with 6.0.1. I think they might have meant ePrint software, but that doesn't matter. I've uninstalled/reinstalled the current firmware AND ePrint software, it didn't fix the issue.

    Hi Greg.
    Did you tried rebooting any of the devices? that may help in may cases after an OS update.
    Please try unplugging the router from the power for 30 seconds, than allow the router 2-3 minutes to start.
    Next reboot the printer and check if you may see any difference.
    I personally use the CM1415fnw with the latest iOS version and never faced similar issues so I wouldn't suspect any firmware problem.. I assume you do have the latest firmware for your printer, am I right?

  • Hi, got myself into a pickle Adobe Illustrator CS3 won't print

    it seems that when I go to print Ai simple keeps spinning until I get a message that Ai quit then the source page comes up and Ai shuts down.
    I successfully uninstalled Version CS3. Wanted to also take out Bridge CS3 but didn't... pulled it out to the desk top then replaced it back in applications. Which did nothing for Ai.
    Since I work primarily Ai and Photoshop (both CS3) I'm stuck. I did locate my startup disc's and I know how to open it "safe mode" I would like to re-install Ai CS3 ...(photoshop is working ok)  don't know if I first have to disable or uninstall Ai? and, I'm not sure if this is the right way to go.. Any help is greatly appreciated - awaiting your brilliance  Barb  (oh and I'm a girl - old but a girl)  haha

    Hi Barb,
    Try a simple Safe Boot first off...
    Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive & clear caches.)
    If that doesn't change anything...
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.

  • InDesign CS3 won't print – neither Acrobat

    when trying to print any file to my new epson printer WF 7515 - but the print is cancelled with this message; "pstopdffilter/pstocupsraster failed with err number 13".
    I have an IMac with Mac Os 10.5.8 - no problem when printing from other computers with previous OS, nor from different software such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Libre Office or Preview - and even from InDesign CS5
    any suggestions? I still have to use CS3 for some projects, and I really need to solve this printing issue
    thanks

    Hi there,
    Don't use Preview to view/print PDFs. Use Acrobat, or at the very least, Reader. You can set all your PDFs to automatically with Acrobat by selecting a file in the Finder, and choosing "Get Info" (or command + i). In the window that appears, towards the middle, you'll see a pull-down menu for "Open with". Choose Adobe Acrobat (or Adobe Reader if you don't have Acrobat), and then click the "Change All" button. From then on, all your PDFs will bypass Preview and open with the application you chose in the "Get Info" window.
    Hope this helps,
    Cheers!

  • InDesign CS3 won't print

    Running IDCS3 on powermac G5 OS 10.4.11. (all up to date) Since upgrading to CS3 I haven't been able to print to my Epson Stylus photo 2100. The job spools then appears in the printer queue with the words "JOB STOPPED" at the top.
    If I try to restart the job, it seems to start with the stripy progress bar doing it's thing, then it stops again - either with no comment, or with the comment: "The process "pictwpstops" stopped unexpectedly with status 1"
    Have tried generating a PDF and printing that, but that doesn't work either.
    Indesign CS2 still works fine and so does Photoshop CS3.
    Any clues.... please.....

  • Photoshop CS3 won't start anymore

    I use Photoshop CS3 with OSX 10.4.  Everything has been working great until reccently.  I had a huge job and the amount of memory it took was causing 'scratch dick full' errors.  One day I pulled Photoshop up and it got part way through opening and crashed.  It has been doing this ever since.  I have cleared over 22 gig of space, cleared the preferences by holding down the control, option, shift.... when starting, and finally reinstalled Photoshop.  Nothing works.  All of my other software is working great.  However, I also have CS2 and Photoshop isn't starting on that version either.
    What can I do to get it going again?  I have jobs backed up and I'm falling behind fast!
    Any help appreciated!

    Press and hold Ctrl - Shift - Alt IMMEDIATELY after starting Photoshop from its menu item or shortcut.  This will allow you to reset the preferences to initial defaults.
    I'm betting that will help.

  • Indesign CS3 won't print black

    ON my HP5000, WordPad or anything else prints black, Indesign prints about a 92-94% screen black...
    what have I done wrong?

    I'm guessing you meant the LaserJet, not the DesignJet plotter...
    In your preferences, go to the Appearance of Black tab and set Printing/Exporting to Output All Balcks as Rich Black.
    Your printer is monchrome, and ID reserves 100" K output for the darkest blacks, which are four-color mixes and simulates the slightly lighter appearance of 100%K only blacks by screening the output when you have set print all blacks accurately on a non-postscript device or are printing to PDF.

  • CS3 Won't print or make PDF

    I have a 48 page document I created since upgrading to Windows 7. It will not allow me to print it out or make a PDF of it- I have to do about 8 pages at a time. Preflight indicates no issues, and a similar document created last year will print fine.  Have restarted with a new file twice- same issue. Other files created since the upgrade also work.  I have had numerous different error messages from JPEG is corrupt (checked all and no problems) to out of memory (plenty of memory) to this problem signature:

  • HP 1300 won't print anymore after 10.6.8

    Just downgraded from 10.5 to 10.6.8... and I just can't get my HP 1300 (usb connected) to print. It shows up, powers and checks normal but no print jobs ever get there. I've made sure I have any latest drivers etc. I've read about backend drivers, reset packages, hp's version that all drivers for this printer are in the 10.6 kit, but nothing works. Any ideas???? TIA

    Disconnect all devices from the computer then do the following:
    Boot up from your Snow Leopard Install DVD while holding down the "c" key.
    Select the language you wish to use, and then choose "Disk Utility" from the menu bar.
    Your HD should appear in a panel on the left hand side of the window which opens. Select it and then click on the "repair disk" button in the right hand section of the window.
    Once this process has been completed restart your computer and repair permissions directly from Disk Utility.
    If Disk Utility is unable to complete the repair, you will need to use a stronger 3rd party utility like DiskWarrior, Techtool PRO (not Deluxe) or Drive Genius.
    Reconnect your printer.  If still not printing try the solutions mentioned below.
    What to do when you can't print
    Install the gimp drivers.  CLICKY CLICK---> http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php, repair permissions and restart your computer.
