Photoshop CS6 not printing

Photoshop gives me this message when I try to print from my iMac:
There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents.
I've deleted and reinstalled my printer. I've reinstalled the latest driver. I've repaired permissions--this seemed to fix the problem at one point. But now it doesn't help.
This is baffling and frustrating. I am able to print from PS on my MacBookPro with no problem. And I can print from other programs on my iMace. The problem seems to be Photoshop/ iMac specific. I'm running OS X 10.10.1, Yosemite.
Is anyone out there?

It's a Canon Pixma MG5320, connected via wifi.
Again, the printer works fine with other apps, and Photoshop works fine from my laptop. I'm using the same version of Photoshop on each computer (13.0.6 x64)

Why does my Photoshop Cs6 not let me view my Nikon D7100 photos in Camera Raw and photoshop when it does my Nikon D700?

Why does my Photoshop CS6 not allow me to download my Nikon D7100 photos into camera raw and photoshop when it does my NIkon d700?

Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
D700 first supported in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 5.1 (CS6 ships with ACR 7.0)
D7100 first supported in ACR 7.4
You probably just need to update Camera Raw in CS6 via Help > Updates.
Confirm which ACR version you have installed via Help (Win) or Photoshop (Mac) > About Plug-In > Camera Raw.

Elements 11 - when I try to print a photo, I get this message "photoshop can not print this document"

What do I need to do when I get this message? "Photoshop can not print this document"

Those pixel dimemsions have aspect ratios that are not the same as a 5 x7 print:
1360 x 1360 = 1.0
790 x 640 = 1.23
2048 x 1366 = 1.5
An 7 x 5 image = 1.4.
So you'll need to crop the images to 5 x 7 before printing. The first two images are a little light in the pixels to produce a high resolution 5 x 7 print.

Photoshop can not print the maximum amount of data that can be spooled to a PostScript printer is 2G

Hi all,
This is the first time I've worked with the .psb (large format) size and I have gone to print a PDF of the file and I get the message:
"photoshop can not print this document because the document is too large. The maximum amount of data that can been spooled to a PostScript printer is 2GB".
The file itself is a 2700x1570mm 300dpi flatten .psb image that is 500mb in size.
Not sure how I can get around this, where abouts do I see the image size information that is being spooled?
Any help would be great

There's no easy way to see the size of the image that's being spooled, but 2G limit is uncompressed, 4 bytes per pixel (either RGBX where X is a padding byte, or CMYK, depending on the image / printer), times about 1.6 because the image data is sent in ASCII85 format rather than binary.
With your image at over 100 inches at 300 dpi, you're also perilously close to the 32k limit on the pixels in any one dimension (31,900 by my calculations) that PostScript can handle.
The limits are 32767 pixels in either dimension, and 2GB of data total. The data that's sent at 4 bytes per pixel, and converted to ASCII85 so that it'll make it across any connection. ASCII85 gives about a 1.6 expansion factor, if I remember correctly.
Do you really need a 10 foot image printed at 300 dpi? If not, changing down to 200 dpi will probably let this image print.

I'm getting a lot of 'Photoshop can not print this document' errors

Has anyone experienced / solved this problem? the error just reads 'Photoshop can not print this document.' with no further information. Flattening the document resolves the problem, but I would like to think that there is a better solution.
Thanks

Elements 12, Epson Artisan 1430, "Photoshop can not print this document"

I recently upgraded to Elements 12 and also got a new printer, Epson Artisan 1430. I got some great prints and then one day, it stopped working. Elements error. No error number just a message, "Photoshop can not print this document" I tried restarting the program, the printer, and the computer. No luck. Tried different graphic files; no luck. The printer works with all other programs beautifully. I cannot find help anywhere on Adobe forum. Running Windows 7

John, I deleted the printer and deleted those folders and reinstalled the printer using the printer menu. When I tried the apple software update it said my software was up to date and didn't offer an option to get updated print drivers. I tried printing again and the same thing happened.
Syd,
I am trying to print from the Macbook to the Artisan entirely over a wireless network. The Macbook has not been plugged directly into the printer or to the router at any point in this. I did try what you suggested, resetting the printing system, and as earlier it did not offer any software updates when I looked for one. I tried printing again and the same result.
I dug around some more directories and found some more files with the epson name in there and deleted those and then attempted to reinstall using the printer setup page, and then again tried a software update and again it didn't find any new drivers, and of course the same printing error occurred again.
It sure appears that the MacOS is holding onto drivers somewhere that I cannot discover because when I reinstall the printer it takes it all of 3-4 seconds to install, and when I try to do the software update it is not finding any new drivers anywhere.
Syd, I agree that there seems to be something specifically corrupted about the printer driver itself, however, but is there another way to remove drivers?
Should I try uninstalling everything and attempting a USB installation to see if prints that way?

Photoshop CS6 Landscape Printing not working. Works fine in CS5.1

When I select Landscape printing, Photoshop CS6 waitis a moment and then goes back to portrait printing. And it will not print landscape. I still have CS5.1 and it works fine. I'm not sure what to do.

Yes, I did update to v13.0.1. It still will only print portrait.
My printer is an HP Photosmart C309a. All other programs landscape printing works. (Microsoft Publisher & Word 2007 for example).
When I click the landscape icon to change the print settings to print landscape--the program just waitis a few moments and then goes back to the selecting the portrait button.

Photoshop CS6 not responding

My photoshop is not loading properly. All I see is a ghost image of the software. I wanted to uninstall and reinstall but when I go to the download it tells me I'm already a subscriber. How do I fix this?

Do you have any other editing program like DxO installed? Sometimes that interferes with PS, but mostly Bridge. If you do, be sure you are running their most recent update. DxO cleared up after going to their 64 bit version.
I would attempt to isolate the problem starting in Safe Mode. Will PS exit properly in Safe Mode?
Online checks for similar problems (Firefox is notorious for this problem) indicates certain apps like Java is indicated, but I doubt this here. Also, corrupt drivers are indicated.
Run a query: "Apps won't close in Win7" in Google and see if you have any similar setups you come across there.

Photoshop CS6 Not Working with OS Mavericks

I can't get photoshop cs6 to behave properly now that I've upgraded to OS Mavericks. For that matter - I can't get InDesign or Illustrator CS6 to behave properly either.
When I use the File Open, File Save, and File Save As commands I immediately get the pinwheel that spins without end. It doesn't matter if I use a shortcut key or a the pull-down menu. I never get to a dialogue box. The pinwheel immediately appears after "Comm + O."
I've searched the forums and can't find a solution that works.
I've tried the following:
Removed all copies of CS5.1, CS5.5, and CS6. Reinstalled all CS6 apps.
Updated all CS6 apps to the latest version
Verified that I'm running the latest approved Apple Java from Apple
Updated my Wacom Drivers
Performed a repair permissions through Disk Utility
Unchecked "Displays have separate spaces" in Mission Control
Rebooted several times
Nothing has worked. Any ideas?
I'm considering using Time Machine and and reverting my OS.
FYI - 2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro

You (or TimeMachine) didn't restore all the files correctly, and it is crashing because the library cannot be loaded.
Your best bet is to reinstall Photoshop, and let Apple know that TimeMachine is not restoring applications/libraries/frameworks correctly.

Photoshop CS6 not working on new pc

I bought a new laptop and have installed my Photoshop CS6 on it, but it won't work.
I cannot open the old PSD files or even a photo or new blank page.

Hi Trevor - thank you for your interest
Laptop - Toshiba notebook - windows 8
Just purchased since my old laptop was struggling to run Photoshop.
I downloaded my CS6 extended version directly from my Adobe page.
Photoshop opens and looks all good, but when I try to open an existing PSD file, Jpeg or start a new one - nothing happens at all
It has also started to 'not respond' as per task manager - at first it allowed me to keep trying to open things with nothing happening, now it is freezing and I have to close via task manager.
It even froze when I tried to open preferences.
I am currently waiting for a reinstall to complete
I have successfully installed Lightroom with no issues (just tried it, to make sure, and all ok)

Photoshop CS6 not opening files from Lightroom 5.6

On my mac I updated to Lightroom 5.6. Now it will not open the file in Photoshop CS6 using the "Edit it Photoshop" option. Anyone know how to work around this? I do not want to "render in lightroom" each time. Thanks!

There used to be a weird bug where this didn't work when there was an accented character (like ø, ä, etc.) somewhere in the path to the file, in the filename itself or in the metadata, the file simply wouldn't open in CS3. Don't know if that ever was fixed, but might be something to check.

HP Deskjet 5650 and Mac OS 10.5.8 Photoshop Images not printing

For some reason my HP 5650 does not print images anymore. It will print a page from Firefox. It pretends to print a Photoshop image or a jpeg opened in Mac's Preview app but the page is blank. I can't seem to find a link to drivers or information.

Sure, you can have a job. No pay, but you can answer posts here on these boards day and night!
I am glad it worked.
By the way, you can leave it connected to your Airport Express by Ethernet. The router does not care how things are connected, wired can talk to wireless and v/v.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

Where can I download the trial version of Photoshop CS6 NOT Photoshop CS6 Extended

I'm trying to download the trial version of Photoshop CS6, but adobe just returns me the download page of Photoshop CS6 Extended. Where can I download that? Is that available as a trial?

The only way is to buy a license I have complained to Adobe for I do not want to be a beta tester and do not want to even see extended feature during a trial. I talk for over an hour with their support on the phone before paying for a licence. They told me the bug I wated fixed in CS5 was fixed in CS6 so I sprung for a license only to find out they lied the bug is still in CS6 andAdobe has added additional bugs. Things that work in the past now have bugs. IMO what I paid for is a beta not a good release so many Actions and Scripts fail if your preferences is set to edit in floading windows. The Only way to even use CS6 it to edit with preference set to open in tabs then float windows with tabs option in effect. New features support like Bicubic Automatic was not added to Photoshop Scripting which breaks Script that reference a users interpolaton preference when the preference is the default Bicubic Automatic. Installing the Script listener disables the new allow tool recording option. The new Allow Tool Recording is machine dependant recording a massive amount of data on fast machine and a small amount of data on slow machines. Playing an action that record tools on a fasts machine when played on a slow machine is unuseable. There is at least one new bug in the Action player and one new bug in the Action recorder. The there are other new features like content aware move the feature may work on a document where the move is relatily easy to pull off. Professional as well as well as amatures tha pay the price for Photoshop want tools that are well designed and work not tools that may work on some machines or work on easy problems not hard ones. IMO CS6 as is is beta code and has some design flaws as well.
