I can't print with PS CC 2017 because the print button is greyed out. I am using windows 7 pro and can't find a way to delete their photo viewer which sucks but it's the only thing I can print with. HELP! And THANK YOU in advance  : )

    Correct answer TWO FISHES

    Try changing the Windows default to anything else in the list. Open Photoshop try and print then close Photoshop (whether it works or not)  - then change it back to your Epson re-open Photoshop and retry.

    If that does not change anything then reset preferences. Go to Preferences -General - Reset Preferences on Quit and after clicking OK restart Photoshop

    I don't know how it happened, but I opened photoshop again and found that the print button was 'highlighted' and thus I was able to print!  Thanks again for your time and "Smarts"!

    You can not print HDR Images. You need to change in Image/ Mode from 32 Bits/Channel to 16 Bits/Channel and print button its turning back on, not grayed anymore.

    Do you own a printer?

    Yes, it is an Epson XP-520

    I'm starting to run out of ideas - but I do have one more:

    Can you check your Image mode. To print it needs to be 8 bit or 16 bit. If it is 32 bit then the print option  will be greyed

    Hi Dave,   Changing back to 16 bit (from32 bit) did the trick.

    Thanks very much.
