Can't get my printer to work with new OSX 10,6?

I upgraded to snow leopard 10.6.3 so I could use the new Touch 4th generation. Everything was great until I tried to use my epson R2880! I keep getting
errors. It also says the printer is not registered. I have downloaded software updates, font updates, etc. no luck? Any ideas? thanks

Since you mention doing an upgrade I would be inclined to reset the printing system and then add the R2880 queue again.
Open System Preferences > Print & Fax
Move your mouse over the Printers list
Hold down the Control button and click the mouse
Click the "Reset printing system ..." popup
Restart your Mac 
This will remove your print queues but not your printer drivers. So you will only need to add your printer queues again.

  • Can't get 4050n printer to work with new Desktop Computer: running XP

    I have a new Desktop Computer, dual processor, which is running XP and MS office 2007.  I had my 4050N HP Laserwriter hooked up to my old desktop (which failed in the last two weeks, blown capacitor, etc) and it worked fine with XP on that computer.
    So I downloaded the drivers I found for HP 4050N running XP, and can't even get a test page.  The connectors seem to be ok.  I had to buy a parallel port to USB cable and I have that plugged into the USB port at the back of my new desktop.
    Any ideas of what else I should try?  If I had a computer virus with the old machine, could it have affected my printer somehow?
    I'm at a loss.
    Thanks!

  • Can't get out.print to work with XML jsp tags

    <jsp:scriptlet>
    if(ErrorTrap == true) {
         out.println("<tr><td colspan=\"center\" align=\"center\">There was" an error while processing the form</td></tr>");
         ErrorTrap = false;
    </jsp:scriptlet>
    I can't get this script to work with the XML stype jsp tags. It keeps telling me the <jsp> tags are untermintaed. Is there a special trick to fix this or do I have to use the non-XML type tags?

    Sorry, I didn't mean to put the extra " in the out.println text string. :-/

  • Can't get old scanner to work with new iMAC

    I have an old scanner, Epson Perfection 4870 Photo that I can't get my new iMAC to install in PSE6 like I've had in my older computers. I've installed all the software (plus I used my old laptop to transfer files/information when I initially started the new iMAC. When I go into PSE6 it is not under the import area that it used to be. Do I need to go manually drag the file in the hard drive to another folder? Thank you.

    Most likely the problem is with the driver. I have the same scanner at work and this is what I had to do to get it to work. Because you are running PSE6 which is a Universal Application on an Intel Mac, in order for the plugin to load within PSE it must also be a Universal plugin which it's not. Epson claims these drivers that were released in 2006 are Intel and 10.5 compatible. What you have to do to get it to work is Open up Epson Scan Utility in order to scan because the Scan Utility will run as a PPC Application. You can call Epson to confirm but if they try and tell you how to run PSE in Rosetta that is not a good solution.

  • Can't get airport express to work with new wireless router

    I just swapped out a linksys wrt54gl for a linksys E1200 wireless router on my home network. My PCs and iPads, and TV all made the switch to the new network fine, but the airport express isn't working. All I want to use it for is to transfer iPad audio to my home speakers. but my iPad  AirPlay shows the old Airport as an option, I can switch to the Airport, no sound comes out the home speakers, then the iPad reverts AirPlay back to iPad.  This model Airport just has power, USB, and LANA ports, so it doesn't seem like it would be complicated. A CAT 5 cable goes from the airport WAN port to one of the ports on the back of the new wireless router. What did I overlook?

    I thought I'd jump in here with you network experts for some help with a related networking problem.
    Equipment:  iMac 24-inch, Early 2009 2.93 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; 2 MBP w/Retina Display; AirPort Express version 7.6.4 (Conncected Using: DHCP; Router Mode:  DHCP and NAT); Comcast/Xfinity Gateway 1 Modem w/2.4 GHz WiFi.
    #1.  Comcast forced me to change modems to their Gateway 1 saying mine was at “End of Life.”  Previously, my home network was set up with AP Express and worked fine using my iMac as a server.  After installing the Gateway 1, I could not get my network to work after repeated calls to their support, online chats, trial and error, reading community chats and articles, etc.  I put the Comcast modem in passive mode using the “Bridge” setting and re-established my network with my AP.  I’m using my iMac as a server for file sharing with my two MBP’s.  The network isn’t recognized in sleep mode and will not wake from sleep and I can’t find it or Connect to Server when the computer is asleep.  I’ve tried all combinations within the Energy Saver/Screen Saver/Security preferences.  I’ve reset the SMC and other like resetting to factory defaults. How can I fix this and what are the correct settings for my home network to function again with my AP Express?
    #2.  TimeMachine stops doing backups when the computer is in sleep mode, understandably because I’m not making any changes on the iMac that need to be backed up.  But using my laptops on the network, I am making changes in shared files that are hosted on the iMac that I would like backed up.  I cannot get the schedule feature to work to wake up the computer long enough to do a backup nightly because, as a security feature, I log out after 30 minutes of inactivity. I understand the schedule doesn’t work unless you’re logged in.  Is there a way for me to make this work?
    Thanks!

  • Can't get my printer to work with Airport Express

    I got a new MacBook today, everything is up and running, so is my Airport express with my DSL line, but my printer is not responding to the connection. I plugged in the USB port from the printer to the Airport and the printer and it doesn't work. I restarted things, went to troubleshooting... nothing helped. It's not the printer because if I plug in the printer USB port directly to my MacBook it works. Anyone have any advice? Thank you!

    The directiions on your site are for the Printer Setup Utility that was part of OS X 10.3 Panther. There is no optoin for "IP Printing" in the Tiger Printer Setup Utility, so I don't get how everyone was able to follow the intructions successfully. I sure can't. Is it enough to just add the printer normally using the default browser (as a Bonjour printer) and selecting the aformentioned GIMP driver manually? If not, I need help getting instructions that pertain to Tiger IP Printing. Thanks.

  • Can't get Epson NX510 to work with new iMac

    I am new to Mac, and I apologize if this is the wrong forum to this question, but...
    Apple threw in an NX510 scanner/printer/copy/fax when I bought my new iMac a couple of months ago. Printer/copy functions works great. But I cannot get the scanner function to work.
    Can anyone help me figure this out? Thanks in advance.

  • Can't get secure wlan to work with new guest wlan

    Dear Support,
    I'm having a nightmare! where I can seem to get either one wlan to work or the other but not both together.
    I posted previously and reconfigured as per the suggestion, however the problem I get is that the secure wlan client associates, then de-associates after roughly 30 seconds with both a guest (no security) and secure (eap using ms ias as radius server)
    my previous post is;

  • Is there a way I get can my Dell V305 printer to work with my Mac?

    I "inherited" my son's Mac Book Pro but when I tried to hook it up to our printer, Dell V305, it wouldn't work.  I tried downloading the software from the Dell site, since we don't have the disks, but it wouldn't work.  Is there a way I can get our printer to work with the Mac?

    I would start by contacting Dell's tech support to determine if the printer is compatible. They may then be able to suggest what printer driver to use on the Mac.

  • How can I get my iMac to work with scanners?

    How can I get my iMac to work with scanners? The scanners scan just fine, but not to my iMac. I've tried Epson and HP all-in-ones; it makes no diffference. I'm becoming extremely displeased, but don't know at whom I should be displeased, the printer guys or Apple. Help?

    My Epson is able to do scans using Image Capture without any problems at all.

  • I can't get airport extreme to work with iPad

    I can't get airport extreme to work with iPad

    Ok, thanks for clarifying that for me. We have two distinctly different printing problems. Let's try tackling them one at a time if you don't mind.
    In order for the iPad to print to a printer it would either have to be AirPrint-enabled or you would need another solution, like PrintCentral for iPad or Printopia. Unfortunately, I don't believe your Canon printer is AirPrint-enabled. There aren't many printers on the market that currently are. All of them, that I am aware of, are HP devices.
    Now for the PC. I would go with what you have already suggested and that is try disabling either the Windows or third-party software firewall. Which version of Windows is it running? Just in case it's XP, here are two excellent iFelix articles on how to do so with or without using Bonjour.

  • I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the Component and Audio ports on my TV?

    I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the MacBook Pro and connected to the TVs Component and Audio in ports.

    Will not work.  To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported.  The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

  • How can I get my ipod to work with itunes?

    When I connect my ipod classic into my new computer it seems that itunes does not recognize it. How can I get my ipod to work with itunes? I'm afraid to disconnect my ipod because the display is saying Do Not Disconnect.

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.
