Hello David,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

From your post I understand that you're unable to print from some of the apps on your Mac after updating to OS X Yosemite. This indicates there might be an issue with the printer or printer driver. To start troubleshooting this issue please follow the steps in the link below.

If you haven't done so already, try resetting the printing system.

Thanks Alex and Eric, As it turns out the problem was with the printer having a clogged jet. Color would print but not the black and white text. It threw me off that Final Draft would print in black, must use the other black cartridge.
