My photoshop quits unexpectedly after I select print

Question

Can someone please help. When I am on my mac, using cs5 and I select print, my photoshop quits unexpectedly. I upgraded to Yosemite this morning to see if that might help, but it still does this frustrating quit. It doesn't save anything and a very large error report in generated. When it gives me the option to reopen, once i select that photoshop does not open. I uninstalled photoshop, then reinstalled it-still the same problem. What can I do???

I have not upgraded to Lion yet, but maybe some of this helps …
Boilerplate-text:
As with all unexplainable Photoshop-problems you might try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed) by pressing command-alt-shift on starting the program or starting from a new user-account.
System Maintenance (repairing permissions, purging PRAM, running cron-scripts, cleaning caches, etc.) might also be beneficial, Onyx has been recommended for such tasks.

Weeding out bad fonts never seems to be a bad idea, either. (Validate your fonts in Font Book and remove the bad ones.)
If 3rd party plug-ins are installed try disabling them to verify if one of those may be responsible for the problem.
