CS4 wants me to install printer - just printed image

I have one machine with VISTA 64 bit and another running XP. Both are running CS4. VISTA CS4 is running 64 bit version and of course XP is running 32 bit version. I saved an image as JPG on the VISTA machine, in a shared folder. Opened it on the XP machine and tried to print. PS CS4 says I need to install a printer before I can do any print functions. I had just printed an image that had been opened on the XP machine only. I tried saving the image from the XP machine, reopening and printing. Same error any ideas. I can print the image from the VISTA machine from the Windows and Fax viewer.

Differences in printer driver versions. For some weird reason PS refuses to print, if different printer drivers are associated with a document and are not available on a system and it cannot figure out a replacment. Normal JPG save also embeds such info, Save for Web and Devices does not, so try that as a workaround.

HT204135 I recently migrated from a 2 year old MacBook Pro to MacBook Pro Retina and now cannot get my LaserJet 3200 to print. I downloaded drivers from HP Support site but printer just prints a line of gibberish per page, and many pages.

I recently migrated from MacBook Pro to MacBook Pro retina. Now my macbook will not print to my LaserJet3200 printer. I downloaded the drivers but still only prints a line of gibberish per page, and endless pages, when i send printer a print job. Any recommendations on how to correct this so the printer prints properly again?

Hi
where can I find the "generic PCL driver" you referred to Greg?
Also, I searched for a LJ 2100 d4river and found these. should I be working with the HP website? or an apple website? my Apple software update is current.

Yaourt just printing ^M when typing return when installing

This is a recurring issue for me. I'm not sure if the issue is related to urxvt, tmux, yaourt or something else, but I only encounter with that combination.
In yaourt, I can press enter to start building, but when I press enter to install, it just prints ^M (trying to use Ctrl-M just prints ^M too)
The only fix I've found is to exit the terminal and open a new one - quite annoying as I need to restart the upgrade (restarting yaourt doesn't help) .
Everything else seems to work just fine.
Any idea what might be the cause of this and how I can fix it?
Some versions:
rxvt-unicode (urxvt) v9.20 (urxvtc + urxvtd)
yaourt 1.5
tmux 1.9a

@hagfish, I suspect you can report yaourt bugs at http://archlinux.fr
But unless you really know how the AUR works (which from your questions I gather you don't) I'd strongly discourage using yaourt. Personally I'd discourage everyone from using yaourt - but if knowledgeable users opt in to it, more power to them. I'd encourage you to at least spend a little time just building aur packages with makepkg. Once you are comfortable with this you can look into aur helper programs - but there are *many* others besides yaourt.
I personally use cower - but pacaur is another that gets very good feedback - there are certainly others that I can't list off the top of my head. While no aur helper is "officially supported", cower was written by an active archlinux developer - so it is much less likely to do stupid and dangerous things. Yaourt seems to make a living in the realm of the stupid and dangerous (not slander - for evidence see their home page that recommends installing with "pacman -Sy <package>" EDIT for clarity: never run such a command. ).

Can't print web sites with the epson printer just installed. It wants to print with the old HP printer

I just installed a new printer, an Epson Stylus NX 420. The old printer is A HP photosmart 4580. I can not print with the new printer. If I want to print an e-mail it keep referring to the old printer.Same thing with an article of the web. I am able to print when I use the internet explorer browser.Please tell me what to do to make this work. Thanks

Tech guy is probably correct. We don't usually see reports about trouble with Epson printers, but ID is not the best behaved application when it comes to printing. The usual workaround is to export to PDF and print that instead.

PS CS4 wants a printer installed even though I can print some files.

I have PS CS4 on Windows 7. I can print some files but not all. On the ones that I can't print PS is telling me I need to install a printer 1st even though I can printer others. I have tried to rasterize and/or flatten the files and it still says the same thing. I have created a new preferences file, by renaming the old in my program files, and it still does the same thing. I have also printed the same photos in Microsoft Picture Viewer. So, the printer can see the file and print it. It's a Brother MFC 9460cdn. I've used the troubleshooting guide thus far and done all i thought or seemed pertinant - except.... As a newbie, I've not not figured out how to create a new file to copy the rasterized, or layers for that matter, to a new project. I can't seem to figure out size settings and duplicating. These are files that came with a business and for some reason only about half will print the other are stuck needing a printer installed...LOL
Please HELP
Thank you,

Hi timcasey-
I recommend you read this Support article on troubleshooting printing issues:
[[Firefox prints incorrectly]]
Hope that helps.

Installed New Printheads Now Printer Just Keeps Automatically Aligning printheads & using ink

After installing new cyan print cartridge, printer automatically required printhead alignment, cleaning, etc. It then said that the Cyan/Magenta Printhead would need replacement soon. Print quality page said everything else was good, but when I went to print document, everything was BAD.
I replaced the cyan/magenta printhead w/brand new HP. Automatically it attempted to align printhead. It has been automatically aligning printheads constantly for 2 weeks now, it has sucked down TWO cyan ink cartridges, one yellow and one magenta, yet I have printed NOTHING but alignment pages, which I cannot get the printer to stop doing.
I NEED MY PRINTER. PLEASE HELP!!!!! Cannot afford another, cannot afford to go out of house to print, and already (with mutliple ink cartridges) have hundreds of dollars into this mailing that was supposed to go out three weeks ago.

Hello there @skirdie ,
I read your posts about the printhead issue you have been having. I just wanted to reach out and let you know what my suggestion is and what I think is happening.
I believe the printheads are failing or at least on their way. My best suggestion to you, is to follow the steps in the guide below. I have looked through the steps and I would personally recommend them. If anything is going to cure the printheads from consistently running an alignment or perhaps seeing the "checking printer" message, it would be those steps. Clean the contacts very well and power reset the printer and give the printer a direct connection to the wall, avoiding power bars and surge protectors.
'The Following Printhead Appears to be Missing or Damaged' or 'The Following Printhead has a Problem...
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. They may have a trade in offer available.

I have a iMac and i just updated the computer to Yosemite. I have Photoshop CS5 and when I try to print under print size --- manage custom size , photoshop unexpectedly quits every time. I updated the printer drivers (epson 9880) uninstalled and installed all the drivers. restarted computer and it is still doing the same thing. Cant find any costumer service here either except forums.

I have exactly the same problem - Whenever I go to Print, the print widow appears, it thinks about it for a bit (rotating symbol) and then quits.

CS4 : unable to print / stops printer / halts print job on Fuji Xerox c2255

Morning,
This discussion posting may or may not have some relevance to my previous posting, CS4 : memory leak errors (?) in Os X console log
I am working on a clients workstation and they are having a few problems. Specific hardware and software details are at the bottom of this posting.
THE PROBLEM
The problem is that I can not seem to print from CS4. The problem seems to be specifically Adobe CS4 related as I will explain below.
From the end user perspective, the CS4 suite appears to function normally with one exception - CS4 will not print. In the below example, I am referring to mainly Adobe Acrobat CS4 and InDesign CS4 as these are the programs that they use the most. The artist can still work with all the CS4 applications - opening new or existing indesign/acrobat documents, adding text, import, export, create pdfs, saving to same name or new name, etc... but they can't print out to a printer (Fuji Xerox c2255). For example, using InDesign, the artist can open an existing Indesign document and make changes to the Indesign document. She can save the document using the same name or a new name, but when she attempts to print the Indesign document, the document will not printed. If she saves the file as a pdf and using Acrobat to open the pdf and attempts to print the document, it will not print. BUT, if she uses preview to open the document and attempts to print, then it WILL print.
When attempting to print, the following happens,
- in acrobat CS4 or Indesign CS4, choose 'Print'
- choose A4 or A3 format
- click print
The job processes and is set to the printer spool as per normal. About a couple of second later, after the processing is done, the Printer Queue starts jumping up and down in the dock. Open up the printer queue, shows the following message 'Printer has stopped'. The job is present in the printer queue list. Restart the Printer, and restart the job, and then about 5 seconds later, the message appears again, 'Printer has stopped'. This continues ad nauseum until the job is manually deleted from the queue. No print outs.
PRINTER or PRINTER DRIVER
I have installed and uninstalled the printer driver half a dozen times. I have source the driver from different locations (US, Asia and Australia). In all three cases,the Fuji Xerox printer drivers look identical (I've opened them up in text edit). Every other application, on the Mac, appears to access the printer without any problems -Office 2008 ( Word, Excel), Preview, Text Edit, Text Wrangler, Mail, etc can all address the printer and print to the printer without any problems. Using any of these programmes, I can access all the functionality of the printer (A4 in Tray 1, A3 in Tray 2, Levels of the inks, etc) via the driver. When I installed the generic printer drive, I have no access to any of the Fuji Xerox Printer functionality. This leads me to think that the Fuji Xerox printer driver is not the problem.
Interestingly, using Apple's Preview, I can print any existing Acrobat documents without any problems - in either A4 or A3. However, if I attempt to print the SAME Acrobat document from Acrobat CS4, it will not print.
USE 'PRINTER DRIVER' option rather then choosing paper size.
I read in another posting, in the Adobe forum, of a similar problem with Duplex printing - if the the paper size is manually set (A3/A4) in the 'print document options', printers do not print duplex. The answer seemed to be instead of manually choosing the paper size (A4/A3), allow CS4 to determine the paper size. So, in the 'print document' dialog option, one should choose 'use printer driver' instead of specifying A3 or A4. An explanation suggested that the print engine refers to the printer driver to find out what options are availible and then CS4 chooses what size it wants to send the print job to. Forcing CS4 seems to stop duplex printing from working.
I will look at this suggestion next week when I return to the site.
NETWORK PRINTER
The fuji Xerox c2255 is a network printer. Both Mac Pro and printer have a fixed IPs. I have eliminated the network as a problem, by running a network cable directly from Mac Pro ethernet port to Fuji Xerox ethernet port. I can ping the printer directly from the Mac Pro; I can see the printer from the Mac. I can print directly to the printer from the Mac, using Text edit or any other application EXCEPT CS4. CS4 will not print.
CLIENT HAS UPDATED ALL DOCUMENT FILES TO CS4 via INX
I have since been informed that a staff member had (recently) updated all the documents to CS4 via INX. I wonder if this anything to do with the problems ? Unfortunately, I don't have any 'old' documents to test with. I wonder if the conversion process had 'modified' the pdf wrapper in some way ? I have tested this in the following manner - I opened a 'updated' CS4 document in Indesign CS4. If I try to print straight out of CS4, then the above problem occurs (i.e. the document will not print as descibed above). BUT, if I copy all the contents - from the updated CS4 document - and paste the contents directly into a NEWLY created document, then it WILL print.
UNINSTALL CS4 AND REINSTALL
Yes, this has been done three times so far with no further improvement. Each time, the steps that I have taken are as follows,
- repaired disk permissions.
- fsck in single user mode to confirm directory structure is fine
- uninstalled CS4 using the uninstaller.
- manually searched and remove any file, folder, cache that has the word 'adobe' in it from both User account, System Library and Library.
- used Onyx manual and automatic functions to clear all logs, font caches, spotlight databases, kernal caches, etc, etc
- ZapRAM Cmmd-Option-P-R (wait for start up chime 3 times)
- fsck again
- start Mac in Safe mode
- reinstalled CS4 from media (see version above)
- Following reinstallation, restarted mac as per normal.
- run Disk Utility to repair permissions
I have tried printing an existing CS4 document file with a freshly installed CS4 suite - directly from the media file (will not print). And I have attempted to print a CS4 document file after applying all updates (will not print) Neither approach improves the situation.
USE CS3
This has been considered but as the client(s) have already done the conversion of all their documents to the CS4 format using INX, then they are really committed to working with CS4. What I am attempting to do at this time is to find out WHY CS4 is doing what it is doing, and if there is a fix to this problem. If there is no fix, then I know I should use a different approach.
I am posting this message in the hope that someone may have already come across this problem or perhaps may be able to spot something that I have overlooked. This problem has really got me stumped - I have had experience with Adobes products since Photoshop 1.0 (1990s / Pre-CS1) but never had a problem as annoying or time consuming as this one - this is a dousy. I have lodged a case number with Adobe Technical Support.
Thank you for taking the time to read this longish posting. I would be most grateful for any feedback solutions, or suggestions.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Thank you,
Fred

PS CS4 doesn't recognize my WIA supported printer on my network

Hello
I have PS CS4 installed on 2 W7Pro computers (1 license, one backup) I have a Canon MP560 connected to my main computer and the printer is on my network and the backup computer uses this printer via wired LAN, network router etc.. I can print from PS on the backup computer with the network printer, but when I want to scan in from the printer to this computer, PS tells me that I need to connect my system to a WIA supported device....but it already is.
The printer software has been dowloaded onto both computers. Is there some way to cause PS to recognize my printer in the network from the import menu?
Thanks Ana

I found the problem was my clients fonts were all lower case ie "arial" while mine started with upper case ie "Arial" I just mapped to the corresponding fonts on my system.

MY PRINTER ONLY PRINTS IN COLOUR, AND I WANT TO ONLY PRINT IN BLACK AND WHITE

HI, AND GREETINGS,
IVE BEEN TRYING TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM FOR SOME TIME BUT I CANNOT FIND A SOLUTION TO IT. IVE WANTED TO PRINT SOME DOCUMENTS BUT IN BLACK AND WHITE ONLY - INSTEAD OF COLOUR BUT I CANT SEEM TO FIND THE SETTING IN WHICH I CAN TURN OFF THE COLOUR, AND TO JUST USE BLACK INK
MY PRINTER IS:
HP COLOUR LASERJET PRO MFP M177FW
AND I AM USING A MACBOOK PRO 2010 VERSION
WOULD LOVE TO GET A RESPONSE FROM YOU GUYS TO HELP ME OUT,
KINDEST REGARDS,
W3 GUD

Hi @W3GUD ,
I see that you would like to set the printer to print with just the black toner. I would like to help you out with this issue today.
Depending on which operating system you are using and what driver was installed for the printer, the Grayscale option should be under Paper/Quality.
From the application, go to File, Print, click on the dropdown for the printer preferences and select Paper/Quality.
Click on the Color Options dropdown and then select Grayscale.
Check the driver name that is installed for the printer. Make sure it shows just the printer's name.
Click the Apple menu and then click System Preferences. Click Printers & Scanners, highlight the printer name on the left side and on the right side of the screen it should show the printer's name. (Laserjet M177fw)
If the full printer name isn't listed correctly, delete it and add the printer name back in from the list. Click the - sign to delete the driver and then click the + sign to add the driver, you might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name to add it in.

Print part of image in CS4?

I recently upgraded from CS3, and I seem to have lost the ability to print part of an image.
I'm sure that in CS3, if you tried to print an image that was larger than the paper, you got a warning saying it would be cropped, but you could still move the image in the print preview to get the part you wanted. How do I do this in CS4, without cropping?

You can still do this in CS4.
In the Print dialog, Center Image and Scale to Fit Media must both be unchecked, and Bounding Box must be checked.
Then you can slide the image around in the preview window as much as you like.
You can also drag the corners of the bounding box in the preview to manually scale the image.
Unfortunately, many printers will not print an image that extends past the printable area. If this is the case, you'll be able to go past the warning message, but the page will probably come out blank. If you can set your printer to print bleeds, then you can probably print the portion of the image that falls within the printable area.
(I was also going to explain how to set a pre-sized selection and then print just the selected area, but the "print selected" checkbox in the print dialog seems to be broken at the moment. So here's a pretty useful work-around that you may need to use if bleeds are a problem.)
1. Select the Crop tool (C / Shift-C) and enter the width and height of your printer's printable area. You can enter "8.27 in" or "2750 px" etc. If you don't know your printer's official printable area, just allow about 1/4 to 1/2 inch of border (e.g., 8 in x 10.5 in for letter size).
2. Then, in the settings bar, enter a reasonable pixels per inch for your printer (300 should work fine) in the Resolution field.
3. Then drag the crop marquee over your image and position or size it as you like. Because the Width and Height are not blank, the crop area will retain the correct proportions. Note that whatever size crop area you create, the crop operation scales that portion of your image to the specified Width and Height.
4. Then press Enter or Return or click the big checkbox on the settings bar. Don't save your document!
5. Print the cropped document as usual, and after the print dialog closes, press Ctrl-Z (Command-Z) or choose Edit / Step Backwards to undo the crop.

Printing problems after installing the Epson Printer Driver 2.16

Has anyone experienced any problems after installing the Epson Printer Driver 2.16 through Software Update? I am having problems printing. It denotes an error message, specifically the rastertoescpii.app isn't working?

Oops, wanted everyone to know that the driver that Software Update downloaded and installed was 2.18, not 2.16 (which was the last one that worked for me). I just got done downloading the 2.18 driver directly from the Apple support website and installing it. Guess what? My printer is now working and everything is fine. If you are having issues, I suggest this route. Guess I solved my own problem, but hope this helps someone else.

Trying to print in iPhoto. Tells me no theme is installed but no print box comes up

Trying to print in iPhoto. Tells me no theme is installed but no print box comes up. Able to print from preview so it is not my printer

Thanks for the suggestion Larry. This discussion is for iPhoto 7, and says to do a custom install using the system disk that came with my computer. Since I recently installed iPhoto 11 from iLife, should instead reinstall from the iLife disk, rather than the system disk that came with my computer?
Yes
Also, I just want to make sure that in deleting all the files listed in this discussion, that I won't be deleting my photos. Thanks!
You will not be deleting any photos or data about them - they are in your iPhoto library and you should not be going into it -- ever
