Python 3 invalid syntax with print()

Question

I've converted a code written in Python 2.6 into Python 3 using 2to3. All the syntax changes have been made accordingly, but I still get an error like following:

print('Type: ' + t)
    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

this happens not only with print() but other totally valid codes like self.type(arg)

What could be wrong? I'm using python 3.2 by the way.

Please hlep me out..

Often mysterious syntax errors are the result of an error above -- like a missing ) -- which is only being reported when the first line is found which becomes invalid python. Look at the prior code. [BTW, please cut and paste exactly the error message. It should be 'SyntaxError', not 'Syntax Error', so you must've retyped it or edited it afterwards.] — DSM

The syntax error is likely on the row above. Looks like a missing parenthesis or something.

Just to demonstrate what the accepted answer is saying,

print('Type: ' + "1")

gives,

Type: 1

This is true syntax.

print('Type:%d'%t)

Only if t is an integer. What reason do you have to believe it is?
