Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this: I have a Canon Selphy CP1500, when I try to print an image Photoshop closes. No error message. If I save the image then open it in Photoshop Express it prints so I believe this eleminates the printer and my Windows 11 computer as the source of the proplem. Thank you.

So far I have:

Held the space bar when going to FIle>Print;

Pressed Ctrl+Alt+Shift immediately after launching Photoshop;

Checked Canon's website for Windows 11 printer drivers (there are none);

Run Photoshop as Administrator;

Canon SELPHY Printer is connected directly to desktop PC via usb cable.

Tried printing wirelessly both by using the SELPHY's network and my home network;

Cleared Photoshop Font Cache;

Reset the SELPHY to factory;

Updated the firmware;

Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer from "Printer & scanners";

Deleleted the USB driver in Device Manager;

NB, colourmanagement

tnhat would seem to perhaps be the root of your issue?

However, take a look at the following article and check if that helps:

Here is some general Adobe [Mac and Win] info on printing problems,

Simple reset for Photoshop printing: hold the space bar when you open the print window. It resets the print dialogs - deleting possibly corrupt print metadata in the file.

@johnm62969609 try resetting your print window - hold the space bar when going to FIle>Print.
