Problem:

I am using ChemDraw 2.1.3 or earlier and I just got a new Laserprinter. Now when I try to print, I get a PostScript error.

Solution:

ChemDraw 2.1.3 was made when only PostScript "level 1" printers were available. ChemDraw 2.1.3 uses specific PostScript commands called "PostScript Atom Labels". This is what causes printing problems on the newer PostScript "level 2" printers. You should upgrade to the latest version of ChemDraw, or continue using a PostScript level 1 printer, or turn the PostScript Atom Labels option off from the File menu:Preferences.
