Question

elements 2023 in Mac does not give an option to select paper type

Hello,

 

I purchased Elements 2023 for my mac [Monterey]

When I try and print photos I do not get to choose any paper type. 

I can only select size and crop,

How and where do i select Luster, Glossy, etc?

 

I do not know if it is relevant but i have a Canon TS9150 printer.

It is crazy because if i install a dutch version on a windows computer it has more choices.

 

Hopefully some one can help me out.

Kind regards

M

If you try printing from the Preview application do see any more options there?

Applcations>Preview.app

Hi Jeff,

 

I have looked and alas no. It gives the same options as size, dubbelsided etc... but still without the option of choosing a papertype like semi or glossy etc...

 

Can you conclude something about that?

Hope so 🙂

Yes: it's a 100% printer issue, and has nothing to do with Photoshop Elements. 

Make sure you have the latest printer driver installed:

MAke sure you have the lastest firmware installed:

THEN

A frequent problem is that when one selects add the printer the first thing that shows up is the Apple AirPrint version of the printer; you do not want that. You need to be sure you select and add the IJ Series version of the printer; that could take several minutes to appear.


Go back to System Preferences->Printers & Scanners and select the "+" icon to add the printer and wait for several minutes for the IJ Series version to appear. Then delete the AirPrint version.

In the Print dialog click on Page Setup than look under Media & Quality

Thank you Jeff, I had tried that also. But there is almost nothing to choose there there but paper size and feed sourc, number of copies and printername. 

Still looking for a solution here and elsewhere...
