MacOS – Preview crashes on Print command

crashmacospreviewprintingtextedit

I have this crash on Preview and TextEdit happening every time I use the Print command. cmd+p = spinning ball… It's only on these two apps, as far as I know. Ie: Mail app prints fine. Both MS Office and Acrobat Reader print okay.

Printed installed: Canon MF4360-4390 using driver Canon MF4360-4390 UFRII LT (UK); version 2.0

Current OS: 10.7.2

On 10.6 it worked fine.
I already deleted the printer and installed it again but got the same result.

Thanks for any help.

My Preview on Lion was crashing on Print. The stack in the crash log shows:

Thread 0 Crashed:: Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread

I tried upgrading to the most recent drivers from Canon's MX850 page. No luck.

I opened "Get Info" from the Finder, with Preview selected, and saw I had set it to "Open in 32-bit mode". I unchecked that box. Now Preview prints again.
