Sudden problems printing in color from photoshop?

I just put in new ink cartridges in my HP officejet printer and suddenly I'm unable to print color from photoshop. I can print color in other programs but just not photoshop. I'm using OS X 10.8 and an old photoshop version CS2. It worked fine until I changed the cartridges.
Anyone have any ideas?

Okay, that's odd. Well, most of the major things in Photoshop are similar between Mac and Win.
As for the reset, I am wondering if it works with CS2 or not. Edit: yes it does work on CS2. Please try the other Option key on your keyboard. Also, be sure the print menu is the active window.
First try closing print and re-opening while holding the spacebar. Also be sure the printer's drivers are up to date.
The next step is a Photoshop preference reset: Hold Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Opt+Shift as you initiate Photoshop's startup. Select "yes" when asked if you would like to continue with reset.

Suddenly unable to print in color from photoshop

Just put in new print cartridges (both b&w and color) in my HP officejet printer and I suddenly can't print color from photoshop. I'm using a mac os x 10.8.
I seem to be able to print color from other sources such as directly from the internet, or from preview. When I go to Print in photoshop if I try to select Color Matching ColorSynch and Vendor Matching are greyed out and unselectable. Not that I ever had to go there before but that seems to be the only difference between the print dialog boxes in photoshop and the other sources.

You should contact Microsoft for Mac Support and/or post in their forums.

Problem Printing onto CDs from Photoshop CS5 - Canon MG6150 printer

I cannot find a solution to this problem anywhere!! I have a Canon Pixma MG6150 printer and have designed a CD/DVD label using Photoshop CS5. The proportions are all correct, when printed on paper from within Photoshop I can cut out the label and it fits my printable media perfectly.
The problem is printing directly onto the CD or DVD using the printer's CD print tray. I cannot get the alignement correct -- the label will only print halfway off the media or more, so only a small section of my label appears on the CD. I have tried various settings from within Photoshop's print options and none work.
How can I get my label design to print onto the DVD or CD? Any help is HUGELY appreciated.
I am running Mac OSX 10.6.5.

I was testing other Imacs running the same photoshop CS5.1 with the new printer drivers from canon and it prints. They are running OSX10.6.8. My new computer is running 10.9.2 and it will not print from photoshop. Is the driver not compatible with the operating system? Is there something to try other than saying the driver is at fault. Do I complain to Canon to update their driver to work? What is a work around?
Thanks,

Why can't I print in color from Photoshop to my HP 3500 wireless printer?

I have Photoshop CS6. I just noticed last night that when I go to print files from Photoshop, (or even Preview right now... or straight from Google Chrome), it only prints grayscale. I have NOT figured out how to fix this setting in the HP 3511 wireless printer I have. Only options for "profiles" when I go to File - Print in Photoshop specifically, are Generic Gray Gamma 2.2, Generic Gray profile, and sGray. What is going on here? I have CMYK file I want to print.

Here are some screen shots...
I'm pretty sure I've been able to print out of there before. I haven't had this printer THAT long (since Christmas) and I haven't used it a ton. I do know I printed a PDF once with color and that worked fine. I tried a PDF tonight and it wouldn't print color on that either. The "grayscale" button was NOT checked on that, either.

Can't print in color from iPhoto

When I try to print a photo from iPhoto, using my color printer, I get a black & white print (not even greyscale). I can print in color from other applications, just not from iPhoto (but I think I used to print in color from iPhoto). Any clues out there?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. First try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and try again. Next, remove the printer from the Print and Fax preference pane and reinstall. Also, depending on your printer brand, check the Apple Downloads page for the new printer drivers offered by Apple. Those might help.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

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?

That is quite possible seeing that official drivers have not yet been released yet for Yosemite 10.10

HP Envy 5660 Will Not Print in Color from Desktop

I have a new Envy 5660 e all in one printer. Prints in color from my I phone and I pad but will only print in black from desktop running OSX 10.6.8. No error messages just will not print color from my Mac.

Hello @zeitman , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you're having issues printing color. I would like to try and assist.
Due to system limitations, the printer requires a minimum of 10.7 to be installed. You can, however, download and install the Mac print software relating to HP. This should allow you to have functionality:
HP Printer Drivers v3.0 for OS X
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

hi FalconMom,
EWS stands for Embedded Web Server. You will be able to access the printer EWS if it is connected to the same network as your PC or notebook. Here are the instructions to connect to EWS.
Open the embedded Web server
You can access the embedded Web server via either the network or Wi-Fi Direct.
To open the embedded Web server via network
NOTE: The printer must be on a network and must have an IP address. The IP address for the
printer can be found by pressing the Wireless icon or by printing a network configuration page.
In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the IP address or hostname that has been assigned to the printer. For example, if the IP address is 192.168.0.12, type the following address into a Web browser:
http://192.168.0.12.
To open the embedded Web server using Wi-Fi Direct
From the Home screen, touch (Wireless) and then touch (Settings).
If the display shows that Wi-Fi Direct is Off, touch Wi-Fi Direct and then switch it on.
From your wireless computer, turn wireless on, search for and connect to the Wi-Fi Direct name,
for example: DIRECT-**- HP Officejet-5740 (where ** are the unique characters to identify your
printer). Enter the Wi-Fi Direct password when prompted.
In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the following address: http://192.168.223.1.

Adobe Acrobat Pro XI problems printing PDFs created from AutoCAD.

Just installed Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and am having problems printing PDFs created from AutoCAD. Printing other PDF created by MS Word works well. Had a similar problem in an earlier version of Pro. The fix I figure out then was to print the PDF file as another PDF. Using the second PDF to print to a plotter typically worked. It does not work for Adoabe Acrobat Pro XI.

My All-In-One 6500A Plus won't print any color from Internet Explorer (v8.0).

My All-In-One 6500A Plus won't print any color from IE (v8.0). I can print all colors from Word, PDF documents, photos, etc. - but not from ANY web page. At first it only printed Magenta ink, now it acts as if it's printing (feeds the paper, moves the print heads across the page and sounds like it's printing) but the paper comes out blank every time. If I change the print options to print grayscale and only use black ink, I can get a black only image of the web site.
As I said, ALL OTHER APPLICATIONS PRINT FINE. ONLY WEB PAGES WON'T PRINT, so please don't tell me it's the ink cartridges. ;-)

Fourteen views and no answers in two-and-a-half days!!
I guess it's time for me to change printer brands. It will be a long time before I get an HP anything again!

Problems with color from Photoshop to InDesign CS2?

Hi all,
Couple of questions:
When I select "Proof Colors" from "View", the color changes a little bit. Is this normal?
Also, on "View", "Proof Setup", which one should I select "Document CMYK" or "Working CMYK" or some other "Custom"
thanks for all your help,
Alex

>When I select "Proof Colors" from "View", the color changes a little bit. Is this normal?
It's not abnormal, but it will depend on what color spaces the objects are in and the color space that you choose to proof.
>Also, on "View", "Proof Setup", which one should I select "Document CMYK" or "Working CMYK" or some other "Custom"
You have a lot of choices for how to set up color management. I usually leave my settings set up for my most common situation, US Sheetfed coated and Adobe RGB, but if I have a special job I can reassign the document color space (notice I said Assign, not convert, in order to preserve the native object color numbers). You can proof the color in either the Working CMYK (the one in the color settings) the Document CMYK (if that's different) or something else entirely if you are repurposing an existing document for a new output method.
When you proof colors, InDesign calculates the conversions on the fly and displays the results. RGB objects will almost always show some shifting due to gamut differences, but the type and degree will depend on the rendering intent you specify. CMYK objects tend not to show as much shifting because the gamuts are likely to be closer, but again it will depend on the exact profiles and intents. Objects that are already in the chosen proofing space should not show any shift at all.
There is a caveat here regarding working in one space and outputting in another: If you want the colors to be as close as possible you will be converting to the new profile, which will by necessity change some color numbers to match the appearance. This is not usually a problem with things like photographs, but other things, like type, which is created as 100% K can be converted to a four-color mix which is not good. If you know the output conditions, I always recommend setting the document CMYK to that space when you start.
