Photoshop crashes when selecting custom print size
On a Mac, Photoshop CS5. I can print just fine but if I try to create custom paper sizes it crashes. How do I fix this?
Creating custom paper sizes is something you do in the printer driver dialog, so most likely the printer driver is crashing.
Check with the printer maker for updated drivers.

Adobe Photoshop crashing when selecting print preferences
Hi There,
It seems that within the past 2 days in our company we have had users complain that Adobe Photoshop is crashing when they go to print and print preferences. They say a window appears and says "Photoshop has stopped working and windows is looking for a solution".
Has anybody else experienced this over the past couple days? It was working on all computers until recently.
The computers are a mostly Windows 8 computers with 1 Windows 7.try resetting preferences by holding down shift-ctrl-alt while starting ps. if done correctly a confirmation dialog with appear.
if that fails, this worked for someone else,
System Preferences>Print & Fax. Selected the Konica Minolta printer (the B/W printer was working fine). Changed the name. Still didn't fix it. Went back selected my newly named Konica Minolta then "Open Print Queue" (like Dave said)>print settings. Change the driver to "Generic Postscript printer." I could print, but only on letter-size paper, no other options available (need tabloid). Went back to system preferences>print & fax>Konica Minolta2>open print queue>drivers then I reselected the updated printer drivers--the same one that hasn't been working. -
Photoshop crashes when selecting File / Automate / Batch
Photoshop users still need a fix for Photoshop crashing whenever they select Batch.
I understand that Adobe staff has chosen to blame scanner drivers for the problem. And, I've read the discussions thru last year (very long and boring when all you want is a fix). But, I'm not settled on several things which do not add-up.
First, I'll review the symptoms for the sake of all interested readers. Photoshop users have reported Photoshop crashing whenever they select File / Automate / Batch from the menu for years. This problem got much worse (widespread) since the release of version 12.0.4. The problem apparently affects only those with Train compatible scanners and who installed Adobe's optional Twain plugin. I never read how anyone came to this conclusion, but scanner drivers are being blamed. The accepted work-around is to disable or remove Adobe's Twain plugin.
Second, I want to point out that Photoshop works normally when using the Twain plugin. I can scan images and they are imported directly into Photoshop without any problems. This was the case before the 12.0.4 update and is still the case now.
Third, I want to pose my most pressing question. What does selecting "Batch..." have to do with scanner drivers? In other words, what possibly could Photoshop be doing with scanner drivers when selecting "Batch..." that it does not do when actually does use the drivers?
Lastly, I'll point out that I am a software developer of over 30 years. So, I understand how it might somehow work out in the details that the source of the problem really is buggy scanner drivers. However, as a programmer with a lot of experience dealing with problems common in device driver API's, I know that good practice is to expect anything. If Photoshop begins a process that calls out to someone else's software API, it should cushion that call with proper exception error handling. All processes should execute with an "if all else fails" contention.>> What does selecting "Batch..." have to do with scanner drivers?
When running the actions for the Batch command, Photoshop updates it's menu/command state to check which commands are enabled or disabled based on the document state being changed by the actions. Part of that update is calling the scanner interface to see what is available or not, and at that point some drivers crash. Since the crash occurs in third party code executed within Photoshop's context - there was not much Photoshop could do to recover (there was exception handling, but it couldn't work across OS and DLL boundaries).
In Photoshop CS6, we spent quite a bit of time figuring out why they were crashing (apparently there was some assumption about the application GUI state), and how we could avoid them crashing in those circumstances - and now CS6 avoids the crashes in the Batch command even with the TWAIN plugin and drivers are loaded. -
Print dialog crashes when selecting shared printer
I have an HP laserjet 1012 installed on a G4 Mac Mini, which shares that printer with the rest of the network. Printing to it from the other G4 mini in the house works fine.
BUT
When I try to select it to print to in the print dialog on my macbook, the print dialog and printing application crash. This happens 100% of the time with firefox (actually deer park universal binary) and preview, although I have occasionally been able to print successfully from word and camino.
Both machines are updated with 10.4.6.
Thanks for any help,
Bruce

Macbook Pro and G4 mini Mac OS X (10.4.6)Well, I finally got a chance to look at this problem again.
Sure enough, the g4 mini (that the printer is attached to) has driver 1.4.5 and the macbook pro has 2.0. hp's website doesn't have a more current driver (it just tells you it's included with current OS X releases), but I stuck the macbook pro's install CD into the mini, ran the "install additional software" and installed the hp printer drivers from that disk.
Now the mini can't print to the printer itself. It says it's trying, and then the printer queue just displays "jobs stopped."
Any ideas how to fix it?
Thanks,
Bruce

Photoshop crashes when trying to print
On a new iMac running 10.8.2, Photoshop (CS5 12.0 x64) crashes everytime I try to print to an Epson Workforce 520 printer. I can print from Illustrator and other programs fine. I checked Epson and apparently my driver is current. I had received a message to deactivate PS on my former computer - I did that, too. I'm not sure how to proceed?
It's not an iMac problem you're posting about. It's a Photoshop problem and in as much as Photoshop is a third party application go to the source? If you said you had this problem in all applications when you tried to print that's a different matter.

Photoshop CS6 crashes when selecting tools
Hi, I'm having the same problem as a few other members (Photoshop CS6 occasionally crashes when selecting tools) and have updated the driver on my HD5770 card to the latest version (8.961.0.0) as this is the recommended fix. Unfortunately this hasn't fixed the problem.
Here is the error report from the most recent crash.
This is very irritating as I inevitably lose some of my work when the application crashes.
What else do you suggest as a fix?
SteveI installed 12.3 and restarted my computer. This did not solve the problem.
I've reinstalled Photoshop twice as well with no developments.
Then, I found this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4289204
My card (Radeon X 1300 / X 1550) is not listed in the "Tested video cards for Photoshop CS6" section.
If I go to Edit->Preferences->Performance, and mouse-over the "Graphics Processor Settings" section, it says "Photoshop detected an error in your display driver. Update or reinstall the driver and check Use Graphics Processor to retry".
Is there any way around this? -
Photoshop CS5 crashes when I click "Print". I have a Mac with Yosemite OS, an Epson Workforce 40, latest driver, and have reset Photoshop preferences.
Thank you for any suggestions!Thanks again for your suggestion about Photoshop crashing since
trying to print with Yosemite. I did go to the Adobe site, then the Apple Apps,
and downloaded the new driver for the Epson Workforce 40 printer. Computer
restarted. Unfortunately, Photoshop still crashes. But I appreciate your idea, and
seems it should have worked. Happy Holidays! -
Photoshop CS5 crashes when trying to print. I recently updated to Mac OSX Mavericks. Help?
Hi, Chris. Thanks for giving this query a look. I have the same problem. All documents print on my HP Deskjet 932C except Photoshop files since I updated to Mavericks.
My CS5 version is 9.0 x64. Mavericks is 10.9.4.
I checked the HP drivers and HP doesn't have one for OS X newer than 10.4.
I tried printing out the detailed report (very long!) and this page rejected the reply as spam. Can we provide the text as an attachment? -

Possibly corrupt preferences.
Hold down Ctrl-alt-shift keys and start Photoshop. A dialog offering to delete the settings should appear. Answer "Yes".
cmd-alt-shift if that's a Mac.

JVM crashes when selecting non-default printer in ReportViewer in NATIVE dialog.
On ReportViewer frame i have the print button active. If i click the print button (Native dialog) and select a printer other than default printer, the JVM crashes. Any idea how to fix it?
ThanksI wanted to provide little history of what I am trying to achieve. Currently, I have the following code:
PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
if (printJob.printDialog()) {
String printerName = printJob.getPrintService().getName();
String printJobName = printJob.getJobName();
PrintReportOptions printOptions = redirectPrinter(printerName, printJobName);
sendReportOutputAndClose(reportClientDoc, printOptions);
I want to capture the number of copies user selects from the dialog. When I do printJob.getCopies(), it always returns 1. Not sure how to get that # of copies user selected. I also wanted to the dialog to be in Native mode because I don't want to give access to modify Margins and other page properties which are part of COMMON dialog mode. If I create the dialog printJobAttribute.setDialog(JobAttributes.DialogType.NATIVE); then VM crashes when selecting a non-default printer but I am able to get the number of copies. The key is I need to use NATIVE dialog and get the number of copies. One option is to display in COMMON dialog mode and then hide the "Page Setup" and "Appearance" tabs. Can this be done ? I am new to Java and Crystal so any suggestions would help. -

Photoshop crashes when I use the marquis tool.
Photoshop crashes when I use the marquee tool. As soon as I make a selection it crashes my computer (every time!) by either rendering the screen black or sometimes all white. I have to force shut down and restart. I'm using MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8 with Photoshop CS6. I am not in a position to update OS at this time. Is there anything I can do to work around this problem? It's extremely time-consuming and infuriating.

Kernel panics are not caused by applications, but by defective hardware or bugs in the OS and drivers.
Resetting prefs may avoid the settings that triggered the crash - but the cause remains in the hardware, OS, or driver code.
Since Apple is not going to update the drivers in 10.6.8, your best bet is to update the OS when you can, and hope the new drivers are in better shape. Unfortunately, it is also possible that you just have a bad GPU or video RAM - and fixing that would require replacing the video card or system (in the case of laptops or all-in-one machines). -
Officejet 5610 not able to create custom print sizes
Hi -- I use my Officejet 5610 for both my work and my personal printing needs. On my work computer which has Windows XP as the operating system, when I got to Properties and Paper Options/Quality tab there is a button for me to select "Custom Size". On my personal computer which has Vista Home Basic as the operating system there is no option on the Paper Options/Quality tab to choose a custom print size. Is there a driver that I might be missing which would allow the custom print size on the Vista computer? I'm trying to print envelopes which are 6" x 9" and nothing I do seems to work. I have managed to print one envelope using Letter size but that took about 6 hours to get one printed. My envelopes keep causing a paper jam -- which once cleared from the printer is still showing up as a jam on the computer and I have to re-boot the whole system to clear it.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!Hi,
Try the following
open solution center> Setting> Printer Settings> Print settings and you will find a custom option there and then create a new size and give it a name and when you print from any application you will see the new size reflection in the application. Are you not seeing the custom option as seen below?
