p.1 #1 · Lightroom Classic Problem: File changes when I move to Print module


After updating Lightroom Classic to 14.5, I have been having an odd problem with module change and I am unable to print.
.
When I try to change module from Develop or Library to Print, the selected photo is changed to the first file in the folder from which I am working. If I then use the cursor arrows to move through the file, I can display the photo I want in the Print module. But when I try to print, it just hangs and won't print.

I have tried restarting both my MBP and LRC, but it doesn't help

Then the problem will go away for a few days, and then it comes back.

I had been printing from this folder without difficulties for several days--dozens of prints.

Any ideas or thoughts?

Before I hit Print, let me say I had no problem opening LrC 14.5 for the 3rd time today (just checked preferences). I moved from the Library module to the Print module (where I saw the same file). I moved to the Develop module without issue.

I pause before printing to ask --
* have you tried printing to file?
* profile -- managed by printer?
* when printing, did you notice anything unusual about Print settings?
* does the print job move through the print queue?

It has started working again. Thank you for your thoughts and the report of 14.5 working fine for you. There was nothing changed or strange about my print settings. The Print job did not move through the queue. But the good news is that it has started working again properly.

All very strange. I restarted LRC several times, restarted the Mac, and also updated the printer software at a prompt from Epson's software updater. I am not sure if any of these fixed the problem, but at least for the moment the problem has disappeared!

Thanks again.

The same problem has started up again--changing to the Print module changes the file; if I select the correct photo by using the cursor keys, the file won't print--it just hangs.

Should I uninstall and reinstall LRC?

It seems that the problem may be specific to the folder in LRC, so that there is something about the folder that is giving incomplete access to the file -- if that makes any sense.
