can you print an image with generative fill content?

I had a photo that I added something to using generative fill. When I tried to print this image, it crashed Photoshop. I reopened Photoshop and the file and flattened the image saving as a JPG (attached). Same result. I can print photos without any generative fill content just fine. But I can't get this image to print. Is it not allowed?

    Hi @spiffycat 

     

    Try resetting Prefs for the Beta:

    /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ Photoshop Beta Settings (Mac Ventura)

    /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ Photoshop\ \(Beta\)\ Settings (Mac)
    C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop (Beta)\Adobe Photoshop (Beta) Settings )Win)

    Launch BETA Photoshop While Pressing The Keyboard Shortcut

    With Photoshop closed, press and hold Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and then Launch Photoshop the way you normally would.

    It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.

    Hi CoryShubert,

    It seems that resetting the preferences did the trick. It will print now. Actually I restarted my computer as well. Thank you!

      Also, there is no reason you should not be able to print a file that GF was used on... wanted to make sure that is clear.

        hey! Did you find an answer for this? Looking to print something large with small areas where generative fill was used.
