How can I select printers in Photoshop CS2?

Hi all. First time poster, as I've just come across a new problem for me....
For years I have been using Photoshop CS2 on a Windows XP machine (in a work environment where old hardware attached to the PC would not allow for an upgrade). I had 4 printers installed (desktop HP, brother labels, richo for bits and bobs and an Epson WFP 9700)
I had the HP desktop selected as default, as this is the one I print to every day. From Word, PDF;s Outlook etc, everything goes to the HP.
When I used Photoshop installed on XP I had an option form within Photoshop to select printer. (Print with preview / Page Setup / Select Printer)  I would often design some artwork and print in draft mode on the HP, then swap printer within CS2 and select the Epson to print a 44"  etc.
I have today upgraded to a Win 7 PC (Xeon 5450 dual quad core) and used the very same installation package to reinstall CS2 on the new machine. There is no longer the option to choose printer from WITHIN Photoshop. I have to set the default printer from within windows before I can use it in CS2. This is incredibly annoying as I frequently swap between two printers from within the application.
So...does anyone know how I can get that option back? Swapping from within windows is not a solution; this is in a work environment and needs to be accessible from Photoshop.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Andy

Officially, Adobe no longer supports CS2 and doesn't recommend using it on newer operating systems since it pre-dates them all by several years.    Can you install CS2 in XP Compatibility Mode?  Even then, some features may not work right. It's too old.

  • How can I refer to the PhotoShop Object library dynamically depend on the release of PhotoShop?

    Recently, I make a program, now I face a big program:
    I make the program by visual basic and photoshop script , but my client have different release of Photoshop, for example : photoshop 7.0 cs and cs2. I know every release of PhotoShop have ist own Object library, but in visual basic 6.0, I can only refer to one PhotoShop Object library. for example: if I refer to Photoshop 8.0 Object library, if my clients release of Photoshop is 7.0. there will be a error message : Run-time error '429 ( cant create object) Run-time error '430(Class does not support Automation or does not support expected interface), How can I refer to the PhotoShop Object library dynamically depend on the release of PhotoShop?

    ermm i didnt really understanded that
    and yea i know it doesnt belong but i didnt know where to put it.
    There's no real place to put a question like this on this forum, especially in the iChat subgroup.
    Adobe Photoshop is a very powerful and complex graphics program with a hugh support system including the built-in help menus and online forums. There must be 200 books on the program and even more web sites with information and training for Photoshop. It is beyond the scope of this Apple Leopard user forum to teach you what you should be reading about.
    You can start here: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.ee6b362/
    You can also Google for: macintosh photoshop cs2 "blur tool"
    Meanwhile, are you having any issues with your Macintosh computer or the Leopard Operating system?

  • CS4 extended. Capture One vs Photoshop . How can I be sure that photoshop use my Display icc  Color Munki Color Profile?

    CS4 extended, OS10.7.5 . When I process an image in Capture One Pro  and then open it in Photoshop CS4 extended and compare to my original image in Capture I can see a big difference . ( Darker in C1 and flat in CS4)     I contacted Phase One and they said that the problem was probably due to photoshop who do not recognise my  Color Munki Display icc profile . How can I be sure that photoshop use my Display icc Color Munki Profile? Thanks !!!

    Hello Station_two,
    Thanks for you response.
    Yes . that's what I did as I created an icc profile with Color Munki .
    My problem is  when you look at the left image   ( Capture One )  and  the same images processed  and open in Photoshop ( Right image ) I can see a big contrast difference ...
    Now, let's assume that photoshop work automatically with my icc Color Munki  in display panel , why the image in  Capture One do not look the same ?  Is it a question of setup in C1 ? In c1 ICC /Process recipe  I have Adobe rgb (1998)  selected.... 
    Thanks!

  • When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

    When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

    I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.

  • How can I select more than one song from the search results?

    I want to create playlists based on certain words in the song title. For example, I may want to create a playlist of all my songs with LOVE in the title.
    Doing the search is easy, but I can't select more than one song at a time. Is there any way in iTunes 12 for Windows to do this? I found an answer in iTunes for Mac, and it basically says to "un-check "Search Entire Library." " but I don't see that option in iTunes for Windows.
    Here is the link to that question: how can i select more than one song from drop down search bar
    I hope some Windows user can help me out.

    Found the "Search Entire Library" option - click on the small (VERY small for my eyesight) down arrow next to the magnifying glass. Also need to select "Filter by: Songs", and then the songs in the main window show the results.
    I'm going to leave this up on the board because 1) in case someone else has this question, and 2) I don't know how to delete it anyway.

  • How can I select from drop-down list and jumping to selected subform?

    I using LC Designer ES2 vers 9. Developing XDP. How can I Select from a drop-down list the appropriate selected subform (jumping to the selected subform on the page)?
    drop-down list...A (jump to subform1)
                             B (jump to subform2)
                             C (jump to subform3)
    subform1
    subform2
    subform3
    ....end of form

    Hi,
    you cannot set focus on a subform but on a field, as only interactive objects can be focussed.
    From a dropdowns exit event the script will look this way:
    switch (this.rawValue) {
              case "A" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;
              case "B" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;

  • How can I select a date to view in Calendar while I am in month view?

    I am looking at month view in Calendar on my iPad. I touch a date. Intuitively, I expect that date to open up in Day or Week view, but it doesn't! On my iphone, it works just fine. Am I missing something?
    How can I select a date to view while in Month view and have it go to Day or Week view?
    Thanks for any help.

    I would try this:
    In Lr import one photo into a different folder that you can see in the list.
    Then in your OS (mac Finder / Win Explorer) move the photo to the folder that you cannot see.
    In Lr the photo will now appear with a question mark on its frame. Click directly on the question mark and select <Locate photo>. Navigate to the folder, open it, and click on the photo.
    Maybe this will help Lr to recognize the folder.
    If this doesn't help try renaming the folder in your OS.
