So I'm a bit stumped. I just upgraded to 10.8 since I thought most of the printing drivers have been settled.
I print from a Canon ipf8300 using the Photoshop CS6 print module. In 10.7 I didn't have any troubles. But now that I've upgraded to 10.8.2, I can't seem to get it to print.
The moment I click "print" on the Photoshop print module I get an error "an error has occured with printing". No codes, just a pop-up. In 10.7, when I click print, it starts "spooling" to the printer.
I've searched around and can't find anything. I've updated the ipf8300 driver from Canon's website for 10.8, installed just fine.
Does anyone know anything about how 10.8 has changed printing spooling protocols? Is there something dead simple I'm missing here? Any help is appreciated!
This is an Apple software issue, it has started with 10.6.8, plug-ins and drivers often are deactivated after software updates, even when doing small software updates.
All I can say that you should always make a clone and backup your system before doing any updates and of course disable the automatic update feature
Yes, still on the hackintosh. I had a backup of 10.7 where I could print from. Remarkably, I booted back in to 10.8 and tried it again, and it worked. Didn't update anything on the system, so I have no idea what changed.
