Photoshop 11 will not print

New installation of Photoshop 11 on Windows 7/32. On selecting File/ Print no Printer Selection drop box appears so printing fails. All other programmes installed all print normally. What is wrong?

Sorry about the omission. Yes it is Photoshop Elements 11. Also the
operating system is Windows 7/64 bit.
Any help that you can give will be very much appreciated.
Gerald Sumner.

Photoshop will not print in color

Help! Although my priner settings are set to print in color and teh preview of the document is in color, my printed version will not come out as color. My ink is newly refilled and it is solely a photoshop issue as ive tried printing color with other programs and it is fine.

What kind of color handling are you using?

PSD files will not print from Photoshop CS4 (previously posted in Acrobat printing and prepress)

My questions are: Does the PSD file have the printer information encoded?
Also why has this just started to show up? My wife has work successfully under the same conditions, files moved and printed on different printers, with no problems in the past.
I (we) have been struggling with a recent problem trying to print PSD files from Photoshop CS4. (Vista 32 bit, Epson 3880 networked) When trying to print certain, but not all, PSD files I get the message: "Before you can perform printer-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document, you need to install a printer." I have been in contact with Adobe support about the issue but with little in the way of positive results. I was referred to a kb link: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/409/kb409119.html Tried all that to no avail. (The first suggestion is absurd to the point of making me wonder what process is used to construct the kbs. You cannot open the print menu when you get this message so....?)
Other solutions are not acceptable for the work my wife is doing, editing high quality photographs for an exhibition with test prints and so on. We are under intense time pressue with four shows coming up in a very short time. The final solution offered is that CS5 has solved all of this. Hum? interesting. No comment except new program, new problems so not a real solution for us.
In searching the web about this problem I have come across many other people with the same problem working from different platforms and even different Adobe products. I noticed that the MAC OS seemed to cause the same problem and that there was a problem with Reader and Acrobat. In every case the problem is never solved by Adobe or anyone else and users find some "workaround". I too have found what we hope is a workaround in our contiued travels on the blogosphere, on flickr http://www.flickr.com/groups/wellington/discuss/72157621548183001/ as "...a nasty, nasty solution" but we skipped the flatten part and the GIMP part and resave the PSD under a different name.
Adobe does seem supportive but not that interested (CS4 right) but I would like to find a real solution and I think many people would benefit from it.
Anyway what I have found is that the PSD files that will not print have been printed on another printer at some time in the past. In my case the Printer was an Epson Artisan A50. The printer we are using now is the Epson Stylus Pro 3880. Even when trying to print wirelessly to the 3880 from the laptop (Was Vista, now Windows 7) that was used to edit and print with the A50, (USB connection) we saw the same error. So it seems that the printer information is somehow embedded in the PSD file (also mentioned in a Blog) and is keeping PS from seeing the printer because the same printer is not there.
Has anybody already found the fix?
I know this is a long post but I have been working on this problem and have heard all of the pat and frankly useless answers and workarounds. Can we find a solution and fix the problem?

Just a few examples, since you ask:

That attitude, Dr. Craig. Plus the verbosity you unconscionably inflicted on your fellow forum users.

My Photoshop CC 2014 will not print in Windows

My HP Deskjet 5550 is compatible with Photoshop CC. It will not print with CC 2014. I have Windows 7 Pro. Do I need another driver?

How does cc 2014 fail?

Photoshop CC will not print to my Epson r2400

When I try to print from PS, I get the error window "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents".
I am using a Mac OS X 10.10.2 and my Photoshop CC 2014 will not print to the Epson r2400.
I can print with Illustrator CC and all other software programs on my Mac.
I've uninstalled my Epson r2400 Drivers, uninstalled everything associated with the printer drivers and reinstalled the new drivers after emptying the trash and restarting the Mac. My problem still persists. It seems to me it is a Photoshop Software problem!

Try opening "print" while holding the spacebar; this discards any saved values. Also, make sure the correct printer it set as default. If these fail, try resetting print: Open print and hold Option. The cancel button will become a reset - click the reset button.

Photoshop elements 13 will not print to my new epson wf-7620 error message;default printer could not be opened

frustrated! photoshop elements 13 will not print to my new epson wf-7620 error message;default printer could not be opened

I haven't been able to try this fix, but someone emailed me the below fix:
I had same problem.Elements13 would not open my new default printer, but worked ok on four other versions of Elements. No help from Adobe, after three days of searching & phoning adobe , I found out by:- Going into Elements 13, Press Edit button, down to "Preferences and across to general. Press the "Reset Preferences on next launch". I then suggest you go through each section to make sure that your chosen preference are still ticked/checked in.
It worked for me. Hope same for you.
I'm planning on trying this fix soon. Let me know how it goes for you if you get to try it before me. Will do the same. Thanks,
Chad

Quark 7.5 Will Not Print In Snow Leopard

I've been running my networked G5 (OS 10.4.11) for years with no problems using Quark, PhotoShop, Illustrator, etc. I recently bought a new iMac (OS 10.6.2) and migrated the G5 files to iMac. Worked through a few bugs and adjustments, however QuarkXpress documents will not print to my printers (Xerox Phaser 5400 and Lexmark C540). I can print simple Quark documents (text only), but as soon as I try any complex documents, the job spools to the Phaser and then is cancelled. On the Lexmark an error of "900 Firmware Error" appears. All other applications, ie, InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat and various other applications print fine to both printers. Obviously it's an issue with the Quark software, but I haven't been able to resolve. Any insights?

Yes, I can create PS or PDF files for print, but would prefer not to do a workaround. I would call Quark but I've seen their posts indicating they do not support QX7.5 in the Snow Leopard environment. Also I've seen other posts regarding QX printing problems and Quark advised upgrading to 8, which didn't seem to resolve most of the printing problems I've read about... thank you for the suggestion.

Elements 11 will not print with Epson R2000?

Cannot make Elements 11 work with new Epson r2000 printer. Prompt on screen states it is not compatible or settings are not correct. Epson tech support worked on it, said to contact without success, said to contact Adobe. Printer works fine on all other applications. Help please.

Thanks again.

Thanks for the follow up.
Barbara Brundage in the Photoshop Elements Forum will probably have the answer to your Photoshop Elements Epson scanner issue. Look into that Twain driver. She will give you good input on all this.
Also, see your other thread about Adobe telephone contact information. I have posted in that other thread also.

IP8720 will not print PDF files

My iP8720 will not print PDF files. It doesn't matter whether the file was created in Acrobat 8 Pro, Word, WordPerfect. It doesn't matter if the PDF contains images or just text. It does print files from Word and WordPerfect, as well as Photoshop, etc. PDFs seem to be the only problem. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate. Any help woud be appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi clarowl,
Do you receive an error when trying to print the PDF files, or does the printer give no error and just not even attempt to print?

Acrobat reader will not print what is showing on the screen

I created a business card in a graphic design program, exported it as a PDF file. When I open the pdf file in acrobat, it will display correctly on the screen, but will not print correctly.
When I click on the print icon, a box opens and shows a small preview of what is supposed to print. What shows in the small preview box is correct, but when it prints, it drops off text.
When I go back to the program that created the card, it will print correctly from that program. When I open the pdf file in Photoshop, it will print correctly in Photoshop. It just drops off text in Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Reader when printing.

This sounds very similar to the issue that I am having.
acrobat pro printing correctly ,same file with adobe reader printing grey instead of black.
Unfortunately I have not yet gotten any feedback, and your post being over 45 days without a response doesn't bode well for my issue either.
Sorry I can't help you.

LR 4 - image does not appear in Preview and will not print`

The selected image appears on the main/center panel but not in the preview screen. Printing results in a white sheet of paper with no image at all. The image has been updated to LR 4 - but made no difference. I've served help and the forums (where i saw mention of similar problems, but no comments or guidance on the problem). What am I doing wrong?

The problem began with the installation of LR4. I print directly from LR4 to my HPZ3100. I routinely select "print preview" in the print dialogue box. Now the first print I see the preview and then it prints. If I select a second print job and use the "print preview" the print preview screen comes up blank and never loads. If I try to delete the print job, it just never responds (resolves) so I have to turn off the computer and the printer and restart to clear the print job. if I don't use the print preview, it prints just fine (except that I'm not able to check what's about to be printed). Thanks for any thoughts you have on this.

Bill, if this is only happening some of the time, then we are probably looking at a resource issue. Any pattern in when things won't print? e.g. Certain file type won't but others will? Or is it more of a timing/order thing? e.g. First file prints fine, second does not? VStromee, do no files print for you? Or is it like Bill and sometimes the print and other times they do not? Did you install any new software recently or have any updates to the OS or any application that has printing capabilities?

8500 does not show troubleshooter as turned on. It is on and will not print.

Had this printer for many years. No problems. It now will not print. Windows 7 troubleshooter says to turn on the printer and try again. The printer was and is powered up and will not print. I have cycled both the printer and the computer trying to sync them.

Uninstall LR from Control Panel—there may be more than one entry: Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, Photoshop Lightroom, Lightroom are all possibilities, then after LR has been uninstalled, log out of the CC Desktop app using Gear / Preferences / Account / Signout, reboot, and then see if LR shows up in the CC Apps list, after you give it a minute or two to contact Adobe’s servers. LR 5.6 is the current version which is probably what the update message is about.

Installed OS X Yosemite, and Illustrator CC 2014 will not print

Just Installed OS X Yosemite, Mac Powerbook. and now Illustrator CC 2014 will not print to my HP Laser jet Pro 400, But Acrobat, Photoshop do. Any advise, I even Uninstallled and reinstalled the HP Drivers.

Did you also uninstall, run the cleaner tool and reinstall all your Adobe apps. In recent versions of the Mac software (10.7 and up) migration will not work reliably with the Adobe Suite.
