Photoshop CC Printing Issue with macOS Sierra (10.12.0)

Mac users who've upgraded to the latest OS, "Sierra", and who use Adobe's Photoshop CC 2015.5.1 (and possibly earlier) may experience crashes when trying to print to their Epson printers.

A bit more information is found in a posting here. The same site lists other issues, including installation problems.

My "early 2008" Mac Pro is not compatible with Apple's latest Mac OS, so I've not seen these issues here. I'm still using OS X 10.11 "El Capitan" and the latest Epson driver (quite old, but the latest).

Not related: I've received a few comments/questions from people after my last posting here, waaaaay back in July. I'm afraid I've not had time to set up testing to determine the cause of that problem and whether later updates to Photoshop CC or to OS X 10.11 have resolved it. I've not encountered a print job for which I need to set up multiple prints across the width of a roll, and otherwise printing has been working fine. I suspect as the weather changes with fall fully "here" and winter coming I'll be able to make some time for such testing. Stay tuned; I'll certainly post the results here. And, thanks for the comments and questions.
