Apple Native Apps Crash on Print command 0S X 10.12.6

Hello,

You appear to have the same problem as described here: Safari & mail crashing - Apple Community

There is a solution to that question. Unfortunately, Apple has recently been deleting most of its documentation. Even though that document refers to Yosemite, it looks like it should still working Mojave. Here is a 3rd party site with the same information: http://osxdaily.com/2015/01/09/reset-print-system-mac-os-x/

Basically, this is what you have to do:

1. Go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners
2. Select your printer
3. Right click or control click on your printer
4. Choose “Reset printing system..."

I’m not sure what this actually does. My initial thought was that you have some old and/or incompatible printer driver. Apple doesn’t have good support for printing any more. Also, you have a ton of ancient software.

It may not help, but try running/posting the Etrecheck report. Try running this program in your normal user account, then copy and paste the output in a reply. The program was created by etresoft, a frequent contributor.  Please use copy and paste as screen shots can be hard to read. Click “Share Report” button in the toolbar, select “Copy Report” and then paste into a reply. This will show what is running on your computer. No personal information is shown. You can run the report for free at least once, but if you run it several  times, at some point it will ask you to pay a license fee.

If the log won’t post, try posting it here and provide a link in a reply        Pastebin

With the new ASC forum, the only way to post an EtreCheck report is to use the “Notes” button below.

Also, EtreCheck is now free. It has in-app purchases, but those are not required, especially when posting a report here.

I would uninstall Sophos. It tends to interfere with the computer's operation while providing minimal to no benefit unless you work with Windows files. Most long time posters recommend not using antivirus software or cleaning software such as CleanMyMac.

Sophos Un-install

Thanks for the update. Using the new ASC once again downgraded software, I think Pastebin is much, much (add much many more times) better than the options the ASC software offers.
