Print issue with Photoshop CS4 and Officejet 6500

I have a Windows 7 Business 64 bits desktop computer. After  installing the Officejet Pro 6500 multifunctional drivers all was  working OK. Images were being printed nice and with the correct size  using Windows print option. After installing Adobe CS4 suite, all images  printed from windows or Photoshop have incorrect size (photoshop prints  it smaller, about 33%, and on upper left corner of the sheet).
Photoshop sucks but Illustrator print fine. The only way I can print  at the good size in Photoshop, it's when I select Microsoft XPS  document writer as printer and print from there... Not very user friendly !!!
And  yes, it was always the HP Officejet 6500 E709n fax selected by default  by Photoshop instead of  HP Officejet 6500 E709n !
Is anybody can say if it's an HP issue or an Adobe issue ??? Why Illustrator print fine and Photoshop don't ???
Thank's  in advance.

Deleting the fax printer  associated with this device to allows correct printing is not an  acceptable alternative for me.
If it is a printer issue, why I can print correctly from Illustrator ???

 Or: you can go into windows and select a default printer or then the one you use to print with in PS. Then when you are ready to print in PS select the printer. See if that works.
That's my normal configuration then I can't change nothing when all is ok.
Thank you very much for your answer ! Maybe anybody have an other solution or explanation.
Thank's for your patience.

  • Issues with Photoshop CS4 and Spacebar/Hand tool

    I am pretty sure this is not the other hand tool problem I have read about. What happens is when I want to move around a document I click the spacebar to get the hand tool, in previous versions of PS i could do this and when I let go of the spacebar the cursor goes back to the previous tool I was using. In cs4 it doesn't go back to the previous tool unless I hit the spacebar again. This also hinders my zooming in and zooming out, I have to click the space bar let go and then click either the ctrl or alt button alone to zoom. It used to be that i could hit space+ctrl and let go and it would go to the previous tool.
    I have PS cs4 on WinXp. I have checked every place i could in the prefs and in the keyboard shortcuts. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is really hindering my workflow.

    That is a good idea, but the keyboard is fairly new and I didn't have a problem with this on cs3 last week with the same keyboard.
    It could have just become noticeable!
    Other than that you could experiment with different setting in OpenGL or look at keyboard repeat rate in the Control Panel applet.

  • Hi, I have an issue with Photoshop CC and Lightroom

    Hi, I have an issue with Photoshop CC and Lightroom. I purchased a subscription the other day, they told me to install the CC app to install these. I installed the app, logged on and it still says trial version. How can I solve this? Could I be that the subscription is not activated yet?

  • How do I print accurate colors with Photoshop CS4 and Yosemite?

    I recently upgraded to OS 10.10, Yosemite. I can no longer get accurate colors printed for photos from Photoshop. I have Photoshop CS4 and I use an Epson Stylus Photo R2400 printer. I am able to use Photoshop for everything but printing accurately. I downloaded all recommended drivers for the printer, reloaded profiles for the printer and even tried a trial of Photoshop CC. Nothing resolves the problem. My prints look kind of solarized. Black and white photos have green areas where there should be black. Please help.

    I thought my problem could be Lightroom is in ProphotoRGB color space, and my printer is Adobe1998 color space.  To test this, I changed the color space of my patches from prophoto to AdobeRGB. I checked my colors in Photoshop, and made them match the RGB number I specified.  It was interesting to note that (128,128,255) had a noticeable shift to purple.  the other colors shifted slightly.  Now I printed the test page with Lightroom managing color and the printer managing color.  Both images came out similar.
    This study came about when I was printing some images, and the sky had a definite purple shift.  So, I took the image into Photoshop and converted the colorspace from prophoto to Adobe.  Printed the image, and the image came out much better.
    So the question now is, do I need to convert each image I print in Photoshop, or am I doing something wrong in Lightroom?

  • HELP- Printing Problem with Photoshop CS4

    Hello Everyone,
    I just bought the PHOTOSHOP CS4, and I am having problem when it prints. The image is not clear, it has dots (pixels). This computer where I installed this program is brand new. I have previously worked with Photoshop CS2 and never had an issue but was force to buy this new one because the computer that I bought has Windows Vista and CS2 is not compatible. I thought maybe the problem was my printer but is not I have a Brother HL-5140 (black and white). I have connected my old computer with the printer and the images print perfectly fine. I have printed photos and it prints clear. But this only happens with Photoshop CS4. It prints dots, can someone please help me. Is driving me crazy.

    Really I'd be willing to bet it's your driver under Vista.
    I have the same problem using Vista and a older HP LaserJet, under XP and CS2 it prints well. Under Vista it's a bunch of dithered pixelated dots.
    They want you to buy a newer printer.

    I haven't heard of anyone else with those specific symptoms.
    But another poster has had problems with his Canon 9900 not printing (but no blank page).
    The first thing to do is make sure you are using the Canon drivers and not the GutenPrint/GimpPrint drivers.
    After that, you probably need to check with Canon.

  • Printing Problems with Photoshop CS4

    I am having problems printing with Photoshop CS4.  When I go to print, I get a very small version of my created document.  If the image is 8"x5", it prints 1"x2" in the upper left corner.  I read other forum answers that said"delete the fax/printer" so it won't delete to the fax machine, but that doesn't work for me.  Any suggestions to fix this?
    Thanks. 

    dumasmar,
    Doesn't sound like a Photoshop issue.
    What do the iPrint people tell you?  I had never heard of iPrint before, had to Google them.
    Incidentally, it's Photoshop not PhotoShop.

  • Installation and compatibility issues with photoshop CS4 - Win 8

    I recently purchased a new computer with Windows 8. I am experiencing issues when attempting to install the downloaded and upgrade copy of photoshop CS4. Initially unpacking the software presented issues, but I believe they've been resolved - specifically I had to change the folder attribute from read only  while unpacking, of course the tedium arose when this endeavor didn't seem to apply the new attributes to all subfolders and files. I percivered though by repeating it for each folder throughout. When I select the icon for the setup.exe file though the process ends as quickly as it began. I considered that it my have been seeking the previous version (in my case photoshop elements) so I sought to install it first, but as you may have guessed the old software is experiencing it's own compatibility issues. Does anyone know if photoshop CS4 will even work in Windows 8, and I hope someone will have already cleared this hurdle and can give me direction - please, I really am hoping for a life preserver here!
    Thankyou, Chris
    PS I did attempt to open one of the attached adobe reader files that came with the downloaded copy, but unfortunately they won't open prior to installation given they show the file size 0kb. I don't know if these files are simply acting as place holders for the cab files - or whether there remains an issue while unpacking the files to begin with.

    If the executable doesn't even run, it's either being shut down by some security stuff on your system or can't find a component. Impossible to tell. whiel there may be compatibility issues, on a more general level CS4 should run on Win 8...

  • Colours do not Print correctly with Photoshop CS4

    I am using the Adobe Master Collection CS4, and use an Epson RX650 printer, but for the life of me I cannot get Photoshop to print what is on the screen.
    The prints are dark, and no where near the ones on the screen.
    I am using genuine Epson Ink, and Premium glossy paper, so as to remove this issue, is this a case of my screen needing to be calibrated?
    I have considered buying the Spyde Studio calibrator to ensure that this is correct, (do I need to?) and I have read as much as I can about setting up Adobe to manage the print settings and colours, but still no luck.
    My current settings are as follows
    In Adobe Bridge, my creative suit color settings are set to Europe General Purpose 2
    The in Adobe Photoshop (version 11.0.1) I am selecting under colour management, Document Adoby RGB (1998), Photoshop handles colours, Printer profile is Epson sRGB Colour Space, Rendering intent is Relative Colourimetric, and I have ticked the following boxs, Blackpoint compensation, Match print colours, Gamut warning and Show paper white.
    Can some one please advise me?

    I too have had problems with prints being much darker than what I see on screen.
    Below is my solution which works fairly well for color prints--not as well for grayscale.
    I used the huey Pro monitor calibrator purchased only a couple of months back to make my prints look right and be consistent.
    1.       Use the huey to calibrate the monitor
    2.       From Photoshop (CS4), I select the ICC profile for my Epson 2200 printer and the paper being used.  I then set up soft proofing in Photoshop (in the View menu) which allows me to see on screen how the image will be printed. Usually it is a bit darker than I like.
    3.       so I adjust the brightness such that in the soft proof view, the image appears as I wish. 
    4.       There is more yet to do in that you have to set various settings for the print process like letting Photoshop manage colors, setting no color adjustment for the printer. And a few more minor settings  regarding the printer
    By the way, there is something wrong with the print driver for the 2200 in XP so that when you come to the last screen before printing, the print preview has a very red tint.  You simply ignore that since the print has none of that.  This is in XP.  Possibly Windows Vista has a driver that doesn’t do that.
    This has given me good quality consistent prints the first time they are printed—at least on the few I have done since getting the huey
      

  • Printing problem with Photoshop cs4, need help

    I'm using PS CS4, with a Canon Pixma iP4200 and Mac os 10.6.2.  I CAN print from other programs such as TextEdit or Pages.  And my printer prints a test page without any problems.  However, when I try to print something from PhotoShop, the printer dialogue box opens, I see the image in the preview and the page rolls through my printer...without anything on it.  Does anybody know the reason for this??  Thank you for your help.

  • Printing Issues with HP D145 and multiple users from G5

    Hi - I've a HP D145 All-In-One connected via USB to a G5 (as described below). The machine has multiple accounts on for different members of my family. The printer is directly connected to the G5 via USB connection but is shared with other Macs. Printing has become increasingly difficult, and we now have the following problems:
    1. Printing will only work from the administrators account.
    2. Printing periodically (daily, generally after a few hours of use) stops from the administrators account
    Solutions tried:
    a. Check set up for the non-administrators accounts....Looks OK for printing
    b. When printing stops - I've tried repairing the permissions with the Disk Utility. This no longer works.
    c. Run Printer Setup Repair (with option to repair all user accounts) - Works for the administrators account providing the computer and printer are restarted, otherwise no effect.
    d. Reinstalling the software - No effect
    It’s beginning to look like I need to replace this printer with one that works.
    You can help me in two ways - how to solve the printer problems, or alternatively suggest a colour All-in-One printer that can work with multiple accounts and does not have the problems mentioned above.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    Melvyn

    Below I've copied the fix HP proposed and some additional information that they have sent me.
    1. The proposed fix that we could not make work:
    Hello Melvyn,
    Thank you for contacting HP Total Care.
    Simply reinstalling the software will not be enough to solve the
    problem. Try these steps to resolve the issue at hand:
    From the Administrator account:
    Double-click on the Macintosh Hard Disk.
    Open Applications.
    Click and drag Hewlett Packard Folder to the trash.
    Close all windows.
    Double-click on the Macintosh Hard Disk.
    Open the Applications folder.
    Open the Utilities folder.
    Double-click on Process Viewer/Activity Monitor
    If Activity Monitor does not appear:
    Choose Monitor in the toolbar across the top.
    Check Show Activity Monitor.
    Ensure the Activity Monitor shows "All Processes", instead of "My
    Processes".
    Single-click and quit each of the applications starting with HP, using
    the Stop Sign that says "Quit Process" beneath it.
    Close Activity Monitor.
    Double-click Macintosh Hard Disk.
    Open the Library folder.
    Open the Preferences folder.
    Click and drag either HP AIO Preferences or Hewlett Packard Preferences
    to the trash.
    Remove the HP Registry file.
    Go back to the Library folder.
    Open the Printers folder.
    Remove the HP folder
    Double click Macintosh Hard Disk.
    Open the Users folder.
    Choose the User logged into.
    Open the Library folder.
    Open the Preferences folder.
    Click and drag either HP AIO Preferences or Hewlett Packard Preferences
    to the trash.
    Click and drag files beginning with com.hp to the trash.
    Click and drag files beginning with HP to the trash.
    Double-click the Macintosh Hard Disk.
    Open the Applications folder.
    Open the Utilities folder.
    Double-click Printer Setup Utility.
    Delete any HP All-In-One printers listed (click the printer name to
    highlight it, then click the Delete button on the printer list)
    Repeat process for all HP All-In-One Printers.
    Remove HP Director/Image Zone from dock by dragging to the trash.
    Restart the Macintosh.
    Empty the Trash.
    From each user account:
    Double click Macintosh Hard Disk.
    Open the Users folder.
    Choose the User logged into.
    Open the Library folder.
    Open the Preferences folder.
    Click and drag either HP AIO Preferences or Hewlett Packard Preferences
    to the trash.
    Click and drag files beginning with com.hp to the trash.
    Click and drag files beginning with HP to the trash.
    Double-click the Macintosh Hard Disk.
    Open the Applications folder.
    Open the Utilities folder.
    Double-click Printer Setup Utility.
    Delete any HP All-In-One printers listed (click the printer name to
    highlight it, then click the Delete button on the printer list)
    Repeat process for all HP All-In-One Printers.
    Remove HP Director/Image Zone from dock by dragging to the trash.
    Restart the Macintosh.
    Empty the Trash.
    From the Administrator account:
    Download and install the latest software for this product. You can
    obtain this software from the following link:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?lc=en&cc=us⟨=en&os=219& product=64992&dlc=en&softwareitem=oj-35225-1
    From each user account:
    Double-click the Macintosh Hard Disk.
    Open the Applications folder.
    Open the Utilities folder.
    Double-click Printer Setup Utility.
    Click Add, ensure you are in the Default Browser.
    Select the HP All-In-One Printer.
    Click Add at the bottom-right corner of the screen.
    Set this printer as the default.
    You should now be able to print from all accounts.
    Sincerely,
    2. The reasons why it may not have worked:
    We need to be sure that you are fully logging out of one account and
    then back into the next. The fast user switching feature of the Mac OS
    can create problems with our printer drivers. For this reason, fast user
    switching is not supported by HP.
    The other issue we may be running into would be the Mac OS itself. Over
    the past few months the Mac OS has gone through several updates. When
    the 10.4.4 version was released it created some issues with our existing
    software. An updated version of our software has been developed which
    works well with 10.4.4 and higher, but it is not available for this
    printer.
    It may be that as each new OS update is installed on your computers that
    the issue becomes worse. If you are running the Mac OS 10.4.3 or lower
    then the version 7.3.1 of our software should work fine. If it is 10.4.4
    or higher there will be some issues as the new OS versions do not seem
    to like the older drivers.
    I would have to recommend retrying the full uninstall the Derek had
    outlined. This time however, just install the downloaded 7.3.1 software
    from our web site for the D145. Once it has been installed we need to
    test it fully without adding the scanjet software. I am hoping that
    without both version of our software installed it may work better.
    This should resolve the issue. If you need further assistance, please
    reply to this message and we will be happy to assist you further.
    3. The repsonse to questions on switching and OS X 10.4.4
    You are correct, since you are running the 10.4.4 I cannot guarantee
    that the older software version will allow full functionality. It should
    allow for printing and as long as you avoid the fast user switching,
    when trying to print, it should keep working well.
    I understand the convenience of fast user switching but you will have to
    log completely out of one user, and then log properly into the next
    before you can expect the printer to function.
    I would still recommend trying the steps I had outlined as it really is
    the only thing you can do that may work.

  • Issues with PHOTOSHOP CS4 on Windows 7

    Hi!
    I'm using photoshop CS4 on Windows 7, and i have a problem. I'm working on a Core I7 920 with 6Go of ram.
    I'm using the 11.0.1 version (the latest), and even with that, the brush is awfully slow on windows 7. I tried with and without the "Open-GL drawing" enabled, it doesn't change anything. I thought it could be the fault of Windows 7's "tablet PC" function, but even after uninstalling it, i still have the same problem. I tried it on XP SP3 on the same computer, and it works normaly.
    As i also had some problems with AE, i guess the compatibility is not perfect. I think Adobe should really think about an update for 7 users.

    Here's a possible solution (work around) to the lag problem, that worked for me.
    Open the Wacom Tablet Properties, double click on the tablet and make sure its in "Standard" mode.
    Click on the Mapping Tab ->set the mapping mode to Mouse and turn off Mouse Accelerration.
    I also either disabled anything that I didn't use.
    Hope this helps.

  • Satellite A200 - Picture issue with Photoshop CS4 Extended

    Hi Everyone
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 notebook and I have tried to install Photoshop CS4 Extended yesterday.
    There appears to be a problem as every image I bring up looks like this (image link to my flickr account to show what is happening) http://www.flickr.com/photos/meg_and_fred/2990212103/
    I have updated the ATI driver, uninstalled and reinstalled CS4 and its still not working. I also have Photoshop Elements 6 which is opening the same images perfectly so it mus be a CS4 and A200 compatibility problem - does anyone know how to fix this or what the problem could be?
    Thanks so much!!

    Maybe you should update your Photoshop CS4 Extended software.
    In my opinion this could solve this issue because as you said the picture can be edited properly using the Photoshop Elements 6.
    I think its ONLY a Photoshop CS4 Extended software issue.
