CS6 Photoshop fails to print selected area

PS fails to Print Selected Area, instead it prints an area smaller than the one selected, and it does not center the image on the paper. How can I fix this? The details: image size is 20x24 in. and my selected area is 10x12 in. I am printing to a 13x19 sheet of paper. The image size as printed is 6-5/16 x 9-1/8 in. instead of 10x12, and my selected area is cropped -- unless I check Scale to Fit Print Media but even then the printed image is still the wrong 6-5/16 size. Finally, the visualization is accurate: what is shown in Print dialog is what printed and instead of centering it as requested, the image is printed in the location as displayed. See attached screen shots.

Ask in the PS forum, but as far as I can tell this is a specific Mac-only genuine bug. That being so, duplicate the image and do a "hard" crop for printing.

  • Sudden loss of print selected area in Photoshop 10.0.1?

    Between printing one image and printing the next I seem to have lost the ability to print a selected area in Photoshop 10.0.1. I am using this old program because the new Photoshop does not have that option. The box is now greyed out. Does any know why I could lose this, and what can I do to get it back? This is extremely important to my work method...
    Thank you.

    Great news! "Print Selected Area" was restored in Photoshop CS6.
    Go to File > Print, scroll down in the dialog box that appears, et voila:

  • Elements 7 print selected area only

    Have just upgraded from Elements 4 to 7.
    Under old version I could easily print a small rectangular selection from a possible A3 print for evaluation before printing the whole thing. There was an option after File>Print to 'Print selected area', after first making a rectangular selection on the image.
    Perhaps I am missing something but I cannot find an equivalent command in Elements 7.
    Couls someone please enlighten me? - Thanks.

    Hello Nicole,
    Thanks for that, it seems strange that such a useful feature was discontinued - A3 size paper and ink is too expensive to just run tests. Once or twice, having marked a selection using the Marquee tool, I have found that if I click on 'custom' size the selection only will appear in the print preview. Unfortunately it does not always happen and I have no idea of the criteria required to make it do this on demand.
    Cheers.

  • Photoshop CS6 hangs up with PRINT  selected

    Photoshop CS6 hangs up with PRINT  selected

    Hello!
    Try updating your printer driver to the most recent, as well as all the Photoshop updates.
    You can get the latest Photoshop update by going to Help > Updates, as shown below

  • Printing Selected Areas

    In Firefox or IE, you may highlight a given portion of any webpage, and there is an option for "printing selection".
    How do we do this in Safari? Geez, I was reading an 89 page document without page numbers, and couldn't print the two paragraphs I wanted without printing the whole thing.
    Thanks in advance,
    John

    Hello,
    A bit late, but basically, you can't in Safari.
    To get around this, most people select the part of the page they want then copy it and paste it into a TextEdit document and then print that.
    You're not the first (nor last) to notice this omission.
    Send feedback to Apple via the Safari menu -> "Report Bugs to Apple..."

  • Since updating to Yosemite and CS6 2 of my print options are greyed out on my epson R2880 print pane?

    My colour and colour settings options are 'greyed out' on my  Epson printer pane since updating to Yosemite and CS6,this happened before after running a software update on the printer driver! The driver version at that time was 6.62 and now it has updated to version 9.00....could this be the problem??

    That's strange ... did you try restarting before printer install? You also may need to delete the printer itself (System Preferences > Printers & Scanners) and add it again , in order to access the proper drivers (?)
    Can you show screen shot(s) of your incomplete print dialog?

  • Photoshop can't print legal-size image to legal-size paper

    I go through a lot of sketch stages to get to a final picture, and I sometimes print on legal paper. My Brother printer does fine at that with Apple Pages, MSWord, Acrobat, and Illustrator, but with Photoshop there's a problem. I set up a legal-size image in PS, go through all the settings I can find for printing to a non-letter-format sheet, hit print, and what I get is a letter-size patch of image on a legal-size sheet. Clearly, either I am missing something or PS is missing something. Any ideas or suggestions?

    The problem persists. This has gone on for months, but now I've updated to OSX 10.9.1 and the latest Brother printer drivers. I still get legal sheets bearing letter-sized information. So far, the only answer anyone has had is to check every possible place where the paper size is defined. Right. How many of those are there? 2? 3? 4? See attached screen grab: I don't know what it's doing there, but the black patch at the bottom of the image corresponds to the cutoff area on the print. It shows up when I check the box "Print selected area". Otherwise, all the sizes and labels i can find are legal-paper sizes and labels. So how do I get rid of the black box? Note that, below, the "Print selected area" box is unchecked

  • CS6 Photoshop Print Settings- Problem w/1/2" borders

    I have started to have probelms with the printing pictures using the CS6 Print Settings box.
    After I have selected all the appropriate Printer setups and set the Print size to 8.5x11 both in Printer Setting and in the CS6Scaled Print Size box I get the below Print Preview.
    Both when I manually enter Scale,H&W and when I check the "Scale to fit Media Box".
    It leaves the top and bottom with a 1/2" white border at top/bottom as seen below.
    Any advice would be welcome.

    There may be a interaction between your Printer Driver Settings and your Photoshop Print settings. May depend on your OS and Printer Drivers.  I'm on a Windows 7 PC with Epson 4800 Printer.  I opened a new black document set to be 8.5" by 11" at 300 DPI. I did some screen captures of Photoshop Print Dialog where I used the Printer setting button to set different printer setting so you can see the effect they have on Photoshop's Print Dialog. I have Photoshop manager the colors and turn off the printer color management. So basically all I use the printer setting for it to turn off color management and to set Paper options.
    Capture 1 Paper Tray 8.5" x 11"  Portrait Standard Print Area
    Capture 2 Paper Tray 8.5" x 11"  Portrait Maximum Print Area
    Capture 3 Paper Tray 8.5" x 11"  Portrait Borderless option note the paper in Photoshop's print dialog in no longer 8.5" x 11"
    Capture 4 RollPaper Paper Sized define 8.51" x 11.1"  Printer Borderless option With this paper size set in the printer Photoshop's print dialog shoes 8.5" x 11"
    One more capture with Paper Tray 8.5" x 11" Paper Print area maximum not borderless with printer scaling the image to 100% of 8.5" x 11" in printer setting note this look like borderless option with roll paper set to 8.51" x 11.1"
    As you see the Photoshop Dialog changes after the Printer setting are changed using the printer setting buttons.
    However your screen capture look more like a mismatch of Aspect Ratios. The print dialog shows portrait paper and your image windows shows a almost square aspect ratio  the aspect ratio difference between your image and your paper is causing your white boarders. Your image is more square then portrait.  So when its width is scaled to 8.5" wide some 229% the same percentage of the height does not reach 11".   Aspect Ratio you must not forget about you Images Aspect ratio and your paper aspect ration you do not want to distort you image to fill the paper so crop you image to your Paper aspect ratio if you want a boarderless print.

  • CS6 Photoshop: One newly-created PSD filewon't print because the print dialog box won't appear altho the file properties appear to be the same as other files that do print.

    CS6 Photoshop: One newly-created PSD file won't print because the print dialog box won't appear after selecting File > Print.  Then "Print" becomes grayed out. The file properties such as permissions, are the same as other PSD files that do print.  This file also cannot be converted to Adobe PDF, which is not offered as choice under "Save as", whereas other can be.  I've exited, reopened Photoshop, restarted computer, checked out other CS6 PSD files which do print, nothing changes.  The 52 MB file has been flattened. OS is Windows 7.  Thanks for any suggestions.

    Sounds like the printer driver is having some problems.
    Try holding the space bar down when you select Print (which makes the print dialog NOT load previously used settings).

  • URG:11i to R12.1.3: Invoice print Selected Invoices fails with REP-1419

    Hi,
    Invoice print Selected Invoices fails with the following error: Forcing NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS to: '.,' for XDO processing
    APPLLCSP Environment Variable set to :
    Current NLS_LANG and NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS Environment Variables are :

    Checked the setups based on 557171.1, 375693.1,1101855.1.
    Still the issue is existing.
    May i know the cause of the issue or is it a bug?
    Thanks
    Nancy

    Hi ,
    The cause of the issue is the standard rdf is set to run for single operating unit. But R12 is a moac setup enable application. Hence The operating unit mode is changed to Single from null in system administration concurrent program setting for the XML report concurrent program.
    This fixed the issue.
    Thanks

  • Images appear fine in Photoshop cs6 and cc, but print too dark, and also show too dark in Windows picture viewer. How can I correct this? Is this a Photoshop setting issue or what?

    Images appear fine in Photoshop cs6 and cc, but print too dark, and also show too dark in Windows picture viewer. How can I correct this? Is this a Photoshop setting issue or what?

    Ok, look at your files in Photoshop. What is the profile assigned to them? You can find this out by going to the Status bar at the bottom, clicking on the right-pointing triangle and choosing document Profile from the list.
    Then in Windows, go to your Control Panel > Color Management and add sRGB (if it isn't there) and select it as your default profile.
    I hope that will work.

  • I used a Photoshop file as my background for a brochure in InDesign CS6 and when I print it thru eit

    I used a Photoshop file as my background for a brochure in InDesign CS6 and when I print it thru either InDesign or via exporting it as a pdf it always has a white border.  How can I eliminate this?  I was on the phone with a tech for an hour and fifteen minutes.  The answer I was given is that InDesign places white borders automatically.  Need help, the white borders do not coincide with a mostly black background.

    I am not certain you understood the technical support person from wherever you shought help.
    ID will simply output what you tell it to. If you have designed a brochure that has a bleed and your PS file extends into the bleed, and you output a PDF with the correct settings, and send it to a service bureau (not certain about instyprint) that can print that size with bleeds, then trim it to size...phew. Seems like a run-on sentance there.
    As for printing to the edge of a piece of paper on a local printer that supports it, you need to set up the printer to do so. At least that's how it has worked with the borderless printers I have used.
    If you need an inexpensive brochure printed, try Quantum Digital. As long as you design it to their specs, it is a quick turn, the printing is fine for most inexpensive jobs, and they are pretty inexpensive. Offset quality they are not.
    But your file better be constructed properly.
    Take care, Mike

  • Photoshop CS4 printer selection failure

    Wondering if anyone might know what's happening here....
    Using Photoshop CS4, Windows 7 SP1, Novell Network Printers.
    There are 2 problems:
    1) In the print dialog box, no matter what printer is selected, the page setup button has settings for a different printer.
    2) After clicking print on the print dialog box, the system print dialog box has the wrong printer selected. The selected printer is random depending on what printers are installed. It is not the default printer necessarily.

    I am not understanding what your trying to do or the steps. When you install the plug in your saying there should be your printer listed in PS CS4 Export as a option to choose from? Do you have a 64 bit OS? If so my guess is that it is only a 32 bit plugin option and maybe you installed it in the 64 bit plug in folder? Or the opposite?

  • "Print preset selection failed – restoring previous selection"

    Hey, my name is Quin, and I have had a strange problem with InDesign CS5. Suddenly, without warning, or apparant change to my preferences/settings, all my print presets have stopped working. When I attempted to return to them, i get a dialog box that reads "Print preset selection failed. Restoring the previous selection." I'm curious if anyone else has had a problem with the print presets randomly not working. I'm using InDesign CS5 7.0.3 on my MacBook with Mac OS X 10.6.8 and a Brother HL-5340D printer. I thought the print driver might have been corrupt so i deleted and reinstalled it, but to no avail… seems that a number of my print settings are simply unavailable, even if they are still listed.
    Anyone have any insight?
    Thanks so much,
    Quin

    Try unplugging and plugging the cables. I would also suggest the you connect the printer to one of the built-in ports rather than a hub, but if you must use a hub, use a powered hub.
    Can you delect the printer and print without using a preset? If so, try editing the preset and just reselect the printer.
