I am running a MacbookPro 2023 (silicone) laptop with OS 13.3.1, Ventura. Preview crashes every time I try to print a jpeg, pdf or a png. I have no problems printing from other apps such as Word, Excel, or Acrobat. Although it shouldn't matter, my printer is a color laserjetpro MFP M277dw

The current stable release of Ventura including bug fixes, security updates is macOS Ventura 13.4 — I would start there.

Just FYI: Without updating a week or so ago, I completely removed the old Ventura 13.3.1 and reloaded 13.3.1. The problem was no longer there. Somehow my 13.3.1 appears to have become corrupted. I have been on vacation and have not tried to load 13.4.
UPDATE: Today the problem started again. Preview and Mail are crashing when I select Print. I never get to the print dialogue box. I am still running Ventura 13.3.1. Based on what Macdonad posted, loading Ventura 13.4 is not going to help!!
This is what is in my trouble report.

Needless to say,, this is very disturbing.

Have updated both OSX to 13.4 and printer driver as recommended. Previes still crashes with printing JPEG from preview.
