Printing Problem with Konica-Minolta CF2002

I have two different MacPro 2.66Ghz models running 10.4.8. I can not get them to provide full functionality to our Minolta CF2002. Using the EFI Driver w/ the PPD provided my Minolta I can print, but can not access features such as duplexing and paper thinkness - plus I can not even print from some apps such as Quark and Acrobat. If I use the Generic Postcript driver with the same PPD I can print from all apps, but still do not have access to all the functionality of the printer. I also have G4 machines running OS 9.2 which can access all functions and print to this same printer fine.
I tried resetting the printing system, PRAM, reinstalling PPDs all to no avail. Does anyone have experience or suggestions with this?

Hi there,
The problem you are having is with the Print Dialog Extensions (PDEs) for the Fiery. At this stage there is a limited number of drivers with Universal versions of these plugins. Therefore the options either don't appear, or appear with a line through them, when printing from Universal applications. The workaround is to set the Universal application to open using Rosetta. Do a Get Info on the app in the Finder and select this option if it is present (it's not there for everything). With this set the option should appear and function.
As for Quark, there is word that EFI and Quark are working on a fix to resolve issues with v7.x printing to Fiery devices. A workaround in the meantime is to comment out the line in the PPD pointing to the fierycupsfilter.
Regards,
Paul

Printing problem with Konica Minolta BizHub282 using RDP on Windows Server 2008 R2

Hello,
I have an office setup as follows: Local office IP adress scheme 192.168.201.x. There is a Konica Minolta BizHub 282 printer connected to the 192.168.201.x network as well as around 10 workstations running Windows 7. There are also about
10 additional teleworkers WHO DO NOT NEED print access to the Minolta 282. All of their data is on a cloud server. I have them setup to first connect to the cloud server using a RRAS PPTP VPN and then to start an RDP session to the separate
RDP server. The Konica Minolta works ??okay?? with the easy print services and until now, we have just dealt with the lack of features and the occasional print job that goes crazy and prints out 400 blank pages (btw, this is usually on Excel) or a job
that cuts off the margins even when you have it set to "fit to page" (this usually happens in Adobe.) When I originally set this up, I tried loading the native Konica drivers on the server, but there was no joy because I couldn't get it to
work using the native drivers. The problem at hand is a feature called "account track." This feature authenticates your print job by using an account code. If there is no code, the job just disappears. When I load the native
Konica driver, the ability to turn on this feature is greyed out (see below):
When I use easy print, the codes seem to go through, but as I mentioned earlier, sometimes the print job just goes insane. After researching this, it seems to me that there are two ways to overcome this if we can't turn off the account track feature:
1) Overcome the driver problem. I've tried both of their current drivers without success: VXL and Visual Postscript. When I login to RDP, the (redirected) Konica 282 printer is listed, but when I try to print, it fails due to the missing account track code.
I'm hoping that there is a registry hack to turn this feature on by default with the code or a driver version that works with RDP. They have a WHQL driver available, but it didn't work any better. Is there a way to report this issue to the WHQL labs? Maybe
I can light a fire under Konica's rear end and motivate them to fix the driver.
2) I saw one discussion where the guy installed the printer out in the clouds as a local printer. He seemed to have a site-to-site VPN, not a client-to-site VPN, so this worked. Is there a way to do something similar when the customer connects to the
VPN through standard "connect to workplace" setup? I tried pinging the Konica 282 from the server while logged into the VPN, but the printer could not be found.
3) I considered setting it up as a google cloud print prnter, but that would require everyone to setup a google account and add a layer of complexity.
Anyone else run into this and have a solution? If not, does anyone have any ideas on a solution or workaround?
Thanks,
Jeffery Smith

Hi Jeffery,
Thank you for your comment.
Yeah, you can use universal print driver by configuring Remote Desktop Easy print on RDS Server. Install the driver on RDS server. Now to configure Easy print you need to have minimum client RDP 6.1(But suggest you to install RDP 8.1), .Net Framework 3.5 or
above and RDSH role.
Also under GPO setting need to check below settings.
Do not allow client print redirection: Disable
Use Terminal Service Easy print printer driver first: Enable
Computer Configuration > Administrative templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Printer redirection
For more information, you can refer below articles.

Picture Orientation problem with Konica Minolta Dynax 7D in iPhoto'08

Hello,
as far as I know the Dynax 7D has a bug concerning saving the picture orientation correctly in the EXIF tags. OK, that is definitly no Apple issue. But if I want to import pictures from the camera, in +the preview+ of the iPhoto import the portrait pictures are displayed in +correct orientation+. If I do the import, afterwards the portrait pictures are +in landscape mode again+, so I have to turn them manually. So the software is able to cope with portrait pictures, but chooses not to apply this...
This is the point I would like to have fixed or at least to have a automatic workaround. Any suggestions are welcome. Did anybody solved that problem already?
Will there be a fix for that behaviour in iPhoto'08?
Best wishes

Create a new test library and import a few of the problem files into it to see if they will display properly. If they do then it's a problem with the current library. If they don't then you'll need to see if it's system wide or limited to your account. To do that log into another account, create a test library and try there. If you don't have a second account it's a good thing to have because it's a great troubleshooting tool. Just create a non-admin test account.
If it works in the second account your primary account is causing it. It could be some other preference file other than iPhoto's that is the culprit. Here's how to determine if that's the case:
Trouble Shooting Preferences in Leopard
1 - Create a folder titled "Preferences A" on the Desktop.
2 - Open the working Preferences folder, HD/Users/your_name/Library/Preferences, and move the contents to the Preferences A folder on the Desktop.
3 - Make a duplicate copy of the Preferences A folder on the Desktop as a precautionary backup.
4 - With the working Preferences folder empty run the application again and determine if the problems is fixed.
5 - If the problem is fixed:
A - open the working Preferences folder (HD/Users/your_name/Library/Preferences).
B - Open the Preferences A folder on the Desktop, select all of the contents and drag them into the working Preferences folder.
C - When the Copy window pops up check the "Apply to All" check box and then click on the Don't Replace button as seen here.
6 - If the problem is NOT fixed, empty the working Preferencess folder and move the contents of the Preferences folder on the desktop back into it.
If the problem persists in both accounts a reinstall of iPhoto may be warranted. If it gets to that point you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder before you install iPhoto from the disk it came on.

Printer Problems with 10.5.1

It seems that there is something broken in Leopard, Printing. Thank god that only a couple of us here at the school actually upgraded to Leopard. We found that Leopard won't print to a Konica Minolta C250. We have a print server setup (we call it steve) and every other 10.4.8 to 10.4.11 can print to this printer. It seems to be a problem with Leopard.
I know that everyone heard this before, but the funny thing is that we have another C250P from Konica Minolta that uses the exact same PPD (printer driver) the C250 uses. I can print to the C250P but get the paused cue from the C250. Isn't that a bit weird.
If you open your browser and go to http://localhost:631/printers/ you can see a list of your printers
here is the address of the two printers
mdns://ICTColour%20%40%20steve._ipp.tcp.local.
mdns://LSComputing_Suite%20%40%20steve._ipp.tcp.local.
Its very interesting that both have the same type of setup, yet when printing to the LSComputingSuite (C250) you get this error
*Destination printer does not exist!* the other computer I get the *mdns://private/etc/cups/ error.* something to do with Bonjour
So there is something wrong with cups, what I might have to do is share these printers through SMB and use SMB to share and print to, until this is fixed.
As of now there is just a lot of people upset about what printer can't print and so forth. How about we start to try to find the error, can people start posting their error logs?
first off to see what is going on how about everyone starts to setup cups for debug mode
open terminal
navigate to /private/etc/cups/
edit cupsd.conf
line 11
+# Log general information in error_log - change "info" to "debug" for+
+# troubleshooting...+
+LogLevel info+
change LogLevel info to debug2
save
then run
sudo killall cupsd
cupsd will respawn but there will be a lot more in your logs now.
then post
cheers

Printing Tip for Konica Minolta Bizhub C550

Hi all,
I've been browsing the forums for the last week, as I just upgraded to Leopard at work. We use a Konica Minolta BizHub C550 for the vast majority of our printing jobs, and I found that I was having the problem others have described with the print queue inexplicably stalling repeatedly, with the job never getting printed. I'm up and running on our other 2 printers, a Magicolor 7450 and Canon iPF700.
In any case, I have found a good workaround for the BizHub. I am using the printer drivers for the Xerox WorkCentre 7655 with good results. I can choose the correct paper sizes and settings, and don't seem to be having any color matching issues (yet). So I wanted to share this, as I didn't see it in the forums when I was initially freaking out about the situation. Our sales rep we lease the printer from has been communicating with KM all week, and they apparently have no clue when they'll be ready with 10.5 compatible drivers.

Wow,
I am not alone!!! I recently agreed to a lease of a C550. We have both Windows and Mac workstations and the performance is very poor in the Mac environment. The drivers are severely crippled.
I have been working with my sales rep, a color specialist, and an application specialist from KM and all three of them have had the same problems when testing files. And no one has offered a resolution. I should I have stayed with Xerox.
I have had the same problem as you described. As well as very bad color results. If I try to send a file in CMYK mode on the Mac workstation everything is extremely dark (Light Brown turns Black, etc.) The same file on the windows computer in CMYK is fine. Also, I have taken the same files to a Xerox dealer to compare. The files came out much more accurate (as close as can be expected for a color laser print). I have been in the design and printing industry for over 10 years and I have never been this disappointed. I am curious to see how things turn out and how many other Apple user are left behind with Konica Minolta Drivers.

Canon 860 Series (Pixma) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips

After spending several hours sorting out Canon Pixma OSX problems here are my thoughts:
Canon 860 Series (Pixma 868) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips
Problem:
- New imac and MacBook Pro 2012 (OSX 10.8.2) had a problem using Canon Pixma 868 printer on network and would not scan or print using Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print), which has advanced scanning and photo printing functions.
- When I connected the canon printer to my imac, OSX 10.8.2 automatically downloaded and installed drivers for Canon 860 series printer. I could then add the new printer (select ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”) and printer would work while connected via USB but could not get to print or scan over network wifi.
- The original Canon 860 Series CD does not work with 10.8 and the manual / online instructions did not make sense (as based on CD install).
Solution:
1) Install Canon Printer Drivers and Software (from official Canon site)
Go to canon support site, review FAQ, then download and install following Pixma 860 Series software & drivers for OSX 10.8 (links see below). The version I downloaded is in brackets but check for updated version. Full instructions are below.
Canon 860 Series Drivers & Software for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion:
The base software and drivers needed for using Canon 860 Series on Mac OS X 10.8 (USB) are
1 Printer Driver
(Canon MX860 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver. 10.67.1.0 (03-Aug-2012))
2 Scanner Driver
(Canon MX860 series Scanner Driver Ver. 14.11.4a (03-Aug-2012))
3 Network Tool
(Canon IJ Network Tool Ver. 4.1.0 for Intel Mac (27-Dec-2012)
Canon Software for using advanced printing and scanning functions (while connected to network)
4 Solution Menu
(Canon Solution Menu Ver. 1.4.1 (27-Jul-2012 ))
5 MP Navigator EX
(Canon MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 (02-Auf-2012))
6 Easy-PhotoPrint EX
(Canon Easy-PhotoPrint EX Ver. 4.1.6 (21-Jan-2013 ))
Canon Support (HK) – check your local site
http://www.canon.com.hk/en/download/main/index.do
Select Product and drivers from support site eg http://support-hk.canon-asia.com/
1. Choose a product category
Multifunctional Printers
2. Choose a product series
Pixma
3. Choose a product model
Pixma MX868
4. Choose type of document
Downloads or FAQ
If you have problems installing the software under 10.8, see the FAQ on Canon site. You will need to allow software installs from “unidentified developers by using “Control” Key or by changing your system preferences)
2) Check Canon Printer and Software Working while connected via USB
Once you have downloaded and installed drivers and software and restarted computer, check that the printer and Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print) are working via USB. Open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App) and make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it shows the correct SSID Wifi settings (under the Canon IJ Network Tool App ‘Setup menu’). This is normally done as part of the automatic install but worth double checking
3) Add new network printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”).
After you have checked USB printing turn off printer, unplug the USB cable and shutdown the Canon IJ Network Tool App.
Then turn the printer back on and wait 30s. Then add a new printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”). Once you select “+” (add new printer), wait 10-30s for the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer to appear in the new window eg Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) (Kind: “Canon IJ Network”)
DO NOT ADD THE MX 860 SERIES BONJOUR SCANNER (the Bonjour Scanner is the built-in software, is not needed and often appears first on the add printer list). The Canon scanner can be accessed used through the MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 software (which has much better functions)
You will now have two Printer Canon MX860 (USB) and Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network). Set the Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network) as default and test print and scan
If the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer does not appear, check the printer and make sure that the printer can see the wifi network. On the printer select Menu / Settings / Device Settings / Lan Settings / WLAN Setting List. It should say WLAN Active, identify the SSID and have an IP address
If the printer can not see the Wifi Network, plug the USB cable back in, then open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App). Make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it has your SSID settings (under setup), if it has this info, restart the computer and the printer and try again

Hi, thaks for response, meant to post as a discussion (not question), wanted to save others time if they get the same problem

Printing problems with InDesign CS3 running on OS 10.6

I recently upgrade my old G4 Mac (OS 10.4) to a new Mac Mini running OS 10.6.6. I am still running CS3 and have encountered only one problem. When I print multiple copies documents from InDesign that contain several layers, each copy is processed separately, so that it can take several minutes just to send the print job to the printer if I'm printing over 20 copies. Then once the print job is processed the printer pauses between every copy, which is tripling the printing time. If I print a simpler document with only one or two layers it processes all the copies at once, as it should. I am printing on an Okidata 6150 color laser printer.
I never had this problem on my old computer. I'm wondering if this is one of the "unsupported" bugs of running CS3 on Snow Leopard. I want to make sure that this is a problem unique to running CS3 with Snow Leopard before I go ahead and upgrade to CS4 or CS5.
computer: Mac Mini core 2 duo 2.4 ghz processors, 4 gb RAM, printer: Okidata 6150 DN color laser printer.

Hi again Peter
It is version 5.0.4. I updated it when I newly installed it a week ago in my new computer, and then again updated it just yesterday.
I might mention that before I got my new computer, I was running Mac OS 4.11, and was using InDesign 3.0. I had bought InDesign CS3 about a year ago, but hadn't gotten around to using it since version 3.0 had been working fine, and I was used to it. Then, when I got my new computer, I decided it was time to use the newer version. However, while using InDesign 3.0 with the old Mac OS 4.11, a printing problem popped up there, too, a few months ago... and it also involved printing problems with Adobe Reader. I contacted Adobe, and they sent me a patch which fixed it. I will contact Adobe again if need be, although I thought I'd start here first to see if it was a common enough problem that someone might be able to provide a free and routine answer.

I neglected to ask what version of indesign CS3 you are using. I also
notice that Mac OSX 10.6.4 has just been released. It actually
addresses some CS3-specific issues, though they seem to be related to
launching the apps, not printing. It may be worth trying to update,

Printing problem with Summarize Comments?

Printing problem with Summarize Comments in Pro 10.1.6? When I print, I only get the number boxes on one page and the comments on the next page. The numbered boxes don't show up on the actual image itself.

Um I dont know if im doing something daft but I tried this like you said
PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
printJob.setPrintable(this);
if(printJob.printDialog()){
try {
          PageFormat pageFormat = printJob.defaultPage();
          if (pageFormat.getOrientation() == PageFormat.PORTRAIT) {
          landscape = 0;} else {
               landscape = 1;}
          System.out.println("THE ORIENTATION IS "+ landscape);
          printJob.print(); }
catch (Exception PrinterExeption) { PrinterExeption.printStackTrace();}
and it doesnt seem to work as I tried it both as landscape and portrait in the print dialog but landscape is always 0.

Printer problem with AW 6.2.9

I have a recurring printer problem with both hp deskjet 5150 and Epson R220. After much work with techs at both, we have determined that it is an AW problem (v. 6.2.9) Other files print okay. I've searched through recent posts and found similiar questions, but the answers aren't specific to my problem. I gather that it involves trashing certain AW files, such as Appleworks.plist and other Appleworks prefs. It will help it I know the specific files to trash and as much detail about how to find them on the HD. I will be infinitely grateful for any help.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
You are correct that deleting the AppleWorks preferences can fix some printing problems. I'm surprised that in finding that information you didn't come across a post with the specific information or a tip to my user tip, AppleWorks has stopped working correctly, that explains which preference files ot delete.
Make sure you have the newest printer driver for each printer. Also, use Disk Utility to repair permissions after any system update or upgrade.

Printing Problems with PDF - Adobe Acrobat

Printer - HP Deskjet 3070A
Laptop - Asus Zenbook running Windows 7 Home Premium
Issue: Printing problems with PDF (Adobe Acrobat Reader)
Dear All,
Please help!
My printer was working absolutely perfectly until my brother in law recently needed to borrow my printer. He plugged in his laptop running Windows 8 (awful thing that is). Since he did this to print his own PDF, I cannot print mine.
Although all the text will appear on the page perfectly both in the document view and on actual printing, it appears that some of the transparent formatting stuff on a PDF - such as boxes you have to fill in and transparent areas (such as you find on glorious tax forms) are omitted completely. In fact, in their place I was getting a single black dot. Now, after uninstalling and re-installing updates for the printer, windows 7, adobe acrobat reader, etc.etc. I get squat. Just all the text laid out but none of the shading or boxes.
I have tried fiddling with the printer settings; the print as 'photo' option, dpi settings, greyscale - as much as I can think of and I am thoroughly stumped.
In a desperate attempt, I even installed the Universal Printer Drivers - thinking it might have been that. No. All I got was a page of gobbledygook. Consequently, I uninstalled and reinstalled the normal drivers again.
If there are any wonderful people out there with any fabulous ideas about how I can get my shading and boxes back; I'd very much appreciate it. Sadly I have a tax return to fill out (which is already fabulously late) and need my printer to work!
Much appreciation in advance x

Hey there @Reverie!
Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!
I can see that the printer is no longer printing in the correct format after it was plugged into the Windows 8 computer! You mentioned you have run the updates and uninstalled/re-installed the printer software. Have you uninstalled and re-installed the Adobe software? Are you getting the same issue from other programs as well? Are you getting the same issues if you are logged in as a different user on the computer?
I have located the HP Update Software Utility that may be able to help. You can download an run the utility. It may be able to locate any other updates for the printer.
I would also recommend running a disk cleanup on the computer to clear any temporary files and junk files that may be causing some performance or software issues. If you do not know how to run a disk cleanup on the computer please follow this document regarding Delete files using Disk Cleanup. It is recommended to restart the computer after a disk cleanup. After the restart try the print job again!
Let me know if that helped and thanks again for posting on the HP Forums!

Printing problems with InDesign CS3 with Mac OS 10.6.3

I am not new to InDesign... I have CS3... but I am brand new to Mac Snow Leopard (OS 10.6.3). Although I can open CS3 and use the application, I cannot print with it. None of my other applications has printing issues... just CS3. Any suggestions?

Default printer problems with adobe 10.1.2

I was having problems printing PDFs since upgrading to 10.1.2. After reading and trying many recommendations, I happened to notice that my default printer(I have only one printer) was listed twice on the print window. The first (default) printer is spelled "HP PSC 2350 series" (upper case 'PSC') The second is "HP psc 2350 series" (lower case 'psc') . The printer is named 'HP psc 2350 series' in my printers and devices, and if I select this printer, the page will print perfectly. Now that I have solved my printing issue, I would like to change the default setting on the adobe print window to come up as the active link, so I don't have to continue to select a different printer everytime I wish to print a document. The printer by the lower case "psc" name is set as the default printer in printers and devices, and I cannot figure out why it doesn't come up as the default printer on the adobe reader print window. I also cannot figure out how to change the default in the print window.   An added interesting fact is that I get no response in the print window when I try to select "preferences' or 'advanced' for the upper case 'PSC' printer.
My computer runs in Windows 7 (64-bit). The printer is HP psc 2355xi all-in-one. Any suggestions are much appreciated

I have not been able to select a different default printer for Adobe, but I can print if I manually select the correct link everytime.

Is there any way to select a default printer for specifically for Adobe, as opossed to the PC itself?

Printing problems with hp laserjet cp1515n [found problem]

Dear Arch users,
A couple of weeks ago I installed for the first time an Arch linux on my brand new Dell laptop with an UEFI MB. It took a while until I could understand how UEFI works but eventually I sort it out and got Arch installed. Unfortunatelly there are some small problems to be straiten out. One of them is the fact that printing with my laser printer (see subject line) is not working.
for the last couple of days I was searching through all post I could find around on the internet, mainly here at the Arch forum. Unfortunatelly I could not find anything nearly describing what I am living on my system. Well here is a brief description of what is happening. After installing Arch, I opted for KDE desktop environment and I made the full instalation. After installing additional software (gimp, inkskape, etc.) I needed to install my printer. At first I couldn't get permission. Than reading the Arch tutorial for CUPS, I saw that the 'lp' permission was not setup properly. Well Have done as described there. Then I tryed to install using the GUI from KDE for installing an usb printer and for my surprise there was not such an option. I intalled than de hp-toolbox, and than it was easy to install the printer. It was automatically recognized and everything was there. The problem was, when I open an archive (text, web page, doesn't matter) and send it to print, the spooler went well theoretically sent to printer and then popped up a notification saying printing finished. Opening the printing cue, I can see that the archive was still there and marked as pending. That was the point where I started to search around for potential solutions or similar solutions.
After sudying a lot I came to a conclusions that it probably have something to do with permissions. Unfortunately I could not find out where or which permissions to change in order to get something printed. I found some "debugging" and information commands and I am posting the results here;

The out put from the last command (usb-devices) I only copyed the relevant part from the printer in question.
the couple of last lines of CUPS error.log are;
E [29/Jan/2013:17:44:48 -0200] [Job 14] Stopping unresponsive job.

I hope somebody could help me out to find where to change permission (if necessary) or point me out to an different road.
Thanks

OK here am I again.
as mentioned before I created an bogus printer with:
lpadmin -p test -v file:/dev/null
verified the presence of the printer;
lpstat -p
$ lpstat -p
printer Color_LaserJet_cp1515n disabled since Fri 01 Feb 2013 02:55:59 PM BRST -
reason unknown
printer hp930c is idle. enabled since Thu 31 Jan 2013 11:30:21 PM BRST
printer test is idle. enabled since Fri 01 Feb 2013 02:54:57 PM BRST
At first "test" printer was disabled for an uknown reason.
tried to use lpadmin -p test to enable the printer as described on the previusly mentioned web site, but couldn't get to enable printer "test". After reading alittle more on the internet I found the command cupsenable <printer> and indeed it changed the printer status.
tried to print;
echo test | lp -d test
result:
$ echo test | lp -d test
lp: Destination "test" is not accepting jobs.
I tried to change the condition of the Color laser printer but did not made any difference with the cups command.
Conclusion: how can I modify this status to make the printer accept jobs?

Printer problem with HP Z3100

I have been printing on my Z.3100 with CS4 Photoshop for over a year with no problem. Also was working fine with CS5 Photoshop for about a month in 64-bit mode. Now, when I select Papers/Quality the selection area is blank. This printer works perfectly fine with other applications such as Illustrator and InDesign. I switched to 32-bit mode and uninstalled and reinstalled the driver several times. I downloaded the driver again from HP and uninstalled and reinstalled and it didn't help. I then took the plunge and deactivated PS and uninstalled and reinstalled it (in 32-bit mode) and that didn't make any difference. Also, many times when I switch back and forth between Papers/Quality and other selections Photoshop crashes. Can you help. Thanks

Thank you, C-Wave. That is what I have done. I have reinstalled each printer driver, PS and Raster, and each is assigned to its own printer (installed with HP Printer Setup Assistant). That hasn't helped. I can'tthink of anything I have added or changed that could possibly have affected the system so I am baffled.
I am using Snow 10.6.4, 2x2.8 ghz quad-core Intel Xeon with 6 gb. Have three internal and three external drives.
