I have got Adobe Illustrator CS3 on my iMac, Mac OS X 10.7 Lion. I recently got a new printer, an HP Photosmart B110
, product number CN245B
, serial number CN1393K1Q405J8
, driver version HP Inkjet 8 Driver 3.5.2
. For some reason, whenever I press Print
in the File
menu in Illustrator it crashes, taking my work along with it. So I have to save it and open it with Preview
and print it from there. But the colours change. For example, this image:
looks like this after it has been printed (a scan):
The two a
letters are done with a linear gradient with no blending, but it's exactly the same colour.
It does work if I export the ai
as a png
/jpeg
in preview.
What do I do?
Can you try uninstall Illustrator then repair permission then reinstall Illustrator. Illustrator shouldn't be crashing in the first place. Did you have your printer profile and monitor calibrate? – chmod – 2012-01-14T07:41:13.023
