In all prior versions a second print job required ONE click.

But alas, in CS3:

Choose File Print > Click # 1
Choose Printer > Click # 2
Page Setup > Click # 3
Choose paper > Click # 4
Choose another Tab > Click # 5
Choose Print Area > Click # 6
Dismiss a warning > Click # 7
Click OK > Click # 8
Click Print > Click # 9

Over and over again…

I HATE THIS

I started counting them too, then I went back to CS2 to print. Here’s more info this BS:

Well, on my new 3800, one click does it (well, two since I have it stop at a final preview).

Lawrence,

Have you set it up as a default printer, with the paper size and type you’re using saved as default?

I have a 3800 too, but it’s not the only printer on my system, and it’s not the default. So clicking prevails here. It used to work so well…

Yes Lawrence but that’s only true for the default printer and its settings, not if you need to print to another printer with other settings.
The only workaround I can think of is to record actions (page setup) for each printer and each setting which in my case, with three printers and a variety of paper media makes an uncomfortable number of actions…

It seems like CS3 doesn’t like multiple printers.

I have an i9900 as well. I may hook it up again and see what happens.
