P: PS CC Crashes with CTRL+P (Print)

Photoshop CC crashes whenever I try to PRINT. I installed the most current version, 22.5, on 8/18/21. I've closed and restarted PS many times and did an orderly shutdown of my PC and this still occurs. 

Thanks for any help!

Does Photoshop crash when you Print? If not, what happens?

 

What is your OS and (exact) version of Photoshop?

hi Jane,

Thanks a lot for your answer. I tried all the solutions you proposed (besides of printing on another printer because I don't have another device). But no suprise - nothing happened.

Sorry, but some "solutions" from here (https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/troubleshoot-printing-problems.html) are ridiculous and pretty funny. I can't print ANYTHING straight from Photoshop as I mentioned and what I can see there? "Maybe your file is corrupted, try flatten image or use another format or save as new file". What more? "Try to shut down other applications / check printer memory / make more free disk space ".

I can print from Illustartor, from InDesign, from MS Paint, from everything. But not from Photoshop. And it is really annoying.

Press and hold the Spacebar on your keyboard before you click File > Print. This process resets printer preferences. 

 

If this doesn't work, try the suggestions here:

Sometimes you need to update your printer driver or uninstall/reinstall.

@Mohit GoyalI'm not sure if you noticed my comment, but still I have the same issue. Ctrl+P (or file / print) makes Photoshop crash.

And of course I have the newest relase of Photoshop.

Hi there,

 

We're sorry for the print issue after the latest update. You may try reset Photoshop preferences back to defaults and check if that helps. Here's the article for the steps: https://adobe.ly/3ceal5t Also, back up the existing Photoshop preferences if you have any custom brushes, action and workspace: https://adobe.ly/2vNz6FG

 

Let us know if that helps.

 

Thanks,

Mohit

Have you look at any of the crash reports to see it there is any information the show what modules are  causing the Photoshop to crash? Is it always the same Photoshop module crashing?

Sorry, but I'm a photographer not a programmer. I have no idea how to read card reports or identity the modules causing the crash. 😵‍💫

Try holding down the Spacebar as you choose File > Print.

Hi Jane, 

Thanks for that suggestion. Unfortunately, it still crashes. Not immediately, but after a few moments.
