Mountain Lion and CS3 indesign and CS3 Illustrator print crash

Having updated my printer driver for OKI b430dn and got it working, I tried to print from Indesign CS3 or Illustrator CS3, guess what it crashes each time I try to print.


Any clues as to what I might need to trash/replace to get it working, am not too keen that for my £13 upgrade to MLion means I have to upgrade to latest CS software.

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion

This relates to a workaround for 10.7 Lion, but Adobe do say that the versions you have were not designed to work on the 10.7.


So I'm not sure if this will work for 10.8

Thank you, I did a quick online check to see if there were any issues with cs3 and mountain lion, and most results suggested there weren't, I won't rush in again.(like I always do!!)


Thank you for your help, I'm not even sure where the Library is or exists in Mountain Lion, so will have another look and see if I can fix the problem.

Double click the Macintosh HD icon on your desktop. Finder will open showing the contents of your HD the Library folder is in there.


If your Macintosh HD icon is not showing on your desktop, click an empty space on your desktop, this will take you into Finder. Next to the Apple Logo in the top left hand corner it willsay Finder. Click the word Finder and select Oreferences from the drop down menu. A new window opens. Click Hard Disks. This will show your internal HD on your desktop.
