Epson AcuLaser C-1100 (Ethernet) and Mac OS X 10.6.3

Hello,
My MacBook Pro is connected to the Internet via wireless to a router which also hosts an EPSON AL-C1100 linked via Ethernet.
What I want to do is to print with this printer.
What's the matter? In no way I have been able to determine the printer's IP address. In a previous attempt I used EpsonNet Config utility, which succesfully told me the printer's IP. Then I went to Preferences > Printing and faxing > Add printer > Via IPP, entered the above IP and printed. BUT THIS IS NO LONGER WORKING!
So I am desperately calling for help.
Thanks in advance!

If you are sure you have the correct IP address then I suggest you try a different protocol to IPP, such as HP Jetdirect-Socket. Some devices also support Bonjour, which is a broadcasting protocol, so when you select to add the printer, if you choose the Default view, the Epson may be visible in this view.

  • Photoshop CS3 with Epson Stylus Photo 1400 and Mac Leopard

    I have Adobe Photoshop CS3 and an Epson Stylus PHOTO 1400 printer and Mac OS X 10.5.4.
    When I print a photo it comes out with excessive ink which smears very easily and has lines in it. It only does it in Photoshop. When I print from any other program it comes out fine. I've seen reviews online where people have printed from Macs and photoshop onto the printer and it worked. I've already contacted Epson, but they said to contact Adobe. Does anybody have any advice?

    Forget Epson's useless tech support.
    What you describe is typical of improper printer profile or usage of non-Epson paper, especially paper with gloss. Have you profiled the printer/paper and are you using Epson paper (or other paper and profiles specifically recommended here for Epson photo-quality printers) properly selected?
    Like Ramón I am on 10.4.11, not 10.5.x, but I doubt if your described problem is due to the OS version.

  • Leopard, Netgear router with printer server and Epson Aculaser C1100

    Hello!
    After updating to Leopard (10.5.1) all my printers were deleted. I've two printers connected to a Netgear FWG114Pv2 wireless router. My HP Photosmart is connected via ethernet to the router. It was easy to reinstalled this one.
    But I still can't get my Epson Aculaser C1100 back to work on my MacBook. The printer is connected with the USB port of the Netgear router. This setting worked fine before Leopard. On Tiger I only had to set up an IP printer with the IP of the router (no queue settings requiered) and to select the correct driver.
    If I try this now, my printer doesn't respond. If I choose the default postscript printer driver the data signal on my printer blinks for a short time, then the printer stops. Two Windows machines can properly print on the Aculaser. Even my WinXp running with Parallels Desktop on my MacBook can print to the Aculaser.
    If I connect the printer directly to the Mac and setup the printer, everthing works fine. I called the Apple support three weeks ago (1 h) with no result. We tried all advanced options in the printer settings and I send communication protocols to Apple (recorded with a little tool from them). Untill now I've no response.
    I also tried setting up differnet drivers as discussed here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6382269&#6382269

  • Can not Print with HP LaserJet 5000 and Epson AcuLaser C9100

    I am using MacBook Pro 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 with Mac OS X (10.6.6)
    I already install the latest print driver from the Apple Software Update website.
    The driver for HP is Ver. 17.5 & for Epson is Ver. 5.2
    I connect two of the printer to my Belkin Surf N300 wireless N Router with ethernet cable.
    The error when print to HP LaserJet 5000 is as follow:-
    Unable to get printer status (Not Implemented)!
    Network host 'x.x.x.x' is busy; will retry in 30 seconds...
    This error can stay forever if I do not delete the print job
    The error when print to Epson AcuLaser C9100 is as follow:-
    Printer not responding
    This error can stay forever if I do not delete the print job
    Previously I can print with my emac with OS X 10.4.10, but now I can not print with 2 of my printer.
    My 2 printer are in good condition, so this is not the printer problem.
    Please, do anyone know how to fix this problem fast, because I need to use this two printer for my business.
    Thanks in advance.

    That is not what Greg needs to know. That is just the way that the IP addresses are assigned to the printers.
    Your problem is probably that the printers were probably originally found by AppleTalk. AppleTalk is not included in Snow Leopard. If the printers support Bonjour, they should be found that way. Otherwise, you have to use other methods.
    How did you add your printers on the new computer? If you delete them from Print & Fax, how would you add them again?

  • Leopard and Epson Aculaser CX11NF

    I am trying to connect my Epson Aculaser CX11NF with Leopard. It is connected, but for some reason the printer tells me that I need to check the paper type when it is correct and it prints about an inch lower than normal. Is this because there is a compatibility problem with Leopard and will this possibly be fixed with 10.5.2? If this is not the issue then what is wrong? Thanks.

    This may or may not be of help to Snow Leopard users, but printing to my CX11NF via the USB port on my Airport Extreme (the first n version, not the current one) is problematic but workable from both my Dual G5 and my wife's 15 inch MacBook Pro (late 2008), both running Leopard. There were no issues with Tiger, but Leopard introduced an incompatibility with Epson Status Monitor3. ESM3 crashes or freezes after any print job (or queue of print jobs), and this usually results in having to restart either the Mac or the Airport Extreme. I've found that manually quitting the Epson AL-CX11 driver, then quitting or, more often, force quitting the ESM3 after a print job allows subsequent printing without having to restart. (I do this using Dock menus.) The workaround isn't 100 percent successful, but it comes reasonably close. As this printer has been discontinued for a couple years now, Epson is extremely unlikely to update drivers for it. So far, I'm reluctant to upgrade my wife's MBP to Snow Leopard, as there's no way to know in advance if it will defeat the workaround. If anyone using Snow Leopard has success printing through an Airport Extreme's USB port to the CX11NF, please post it here.

  • Airport Extreme and Epson Aculaser Cx11nf

    Have tried to set up my Epson aculaser cx11nf to print via Bonjour. Printer set up sees the bonjour printer but when I wish to add it all I get is rainbow wheel and have to force quit printer set up. Anybody been able to set up an Epson Aculaser CX11nf to print via Airport Extreme.

    You have to reset the printing system.
    In 10.4:
    From the "Printer Setup Utility" menu select the "Reset Printing System" command and, even though you're not asked to do so, restart the Mac.
    For all other versions of Mac OS X:
    http://www.fixamac.net/software/index.html
    I had the same problem and was able to bring back printing to 5 Macs running (10.3.9, 10.4.6 and 10.4.7).

  • Mac Mini (2007 model) Ethernet and 802.11N dead

    Wow, talk about frustrating...my 13 month old 2007-model Mac Mini just crapped out with a couple of issues. The Ethernet networking reports the cable is unplugged, even though it's not, and the 802.11 wireless networking won't connect at N speeds. Of my four Macs, this was the only one without AppleCare, so no warranty help to be had.
    Anyways, to troubleshoot the system, I've verified that the Ethernet cable I am using provides connectivity on another machine, and that other machines in the same workspace can connect to the 802.11n router via "n" speeds. So it's not anything external to the Mac Mini.
    I also booted from a different OS X version via external USB drive, and the Ethernet and Wireless "n" still display the same symptoms. So it sounds like hardware, since a software glitch shouldn't appear with a different boot drive, right?
    Verify disk and repair permissions also performed, with no anomalies noted.
    System Profiler shows the Ethernet port is there, but in following troubleshooting "cable unplugged" errors tips in another thread I tried removing it from the networking pref pane, and re-adding it, but Ethernet doesn't show as an addable option anymore.
    I am able to connect via 802.11g, so the machine's not totally dead connectivity-wise, but as home theater media server, I am sure going to miss the rapid file transfer rates of Ethernet or "n" wireless.
    So, before I write this machine off as crippled, can anyone think of anything else I might try to get Ethernet working again? I suppose a USB-to-ethernet dongle would be better than Wireless-"g", but it's still less than ideal.
    On another note, oddly, several of my programs started complaining about not being registered, which is what lead me to try permissions and disk verifications. Pretty strange.
    Any ideas appreciated.

    Ah, you're right about the N not being supported. Color me stupid on that one...silly me assumed that since I'd only had it a year, and N was around on my other Macs purchased around then, that it was there, but of course the design was a year old already. I'll update the thread post to drop that part.
    As for the cable, I sort of tried two other cables already. My actual setup is to run the Mini to a gigabit switch, then the switch runs a CAT6 cable 50' to the router. I used two different cables out of the switch, and then plugged the long run directly into the Mini. No go. I guess not a big issue to unplug the Mini and move it to another room. I'll give it a go, but take note that it's been working fine on this same cable/switch/router set-up for a year. Odd that it would suddenly change.
    Thanks for the tips, I'll post back with results when I get home and can check it out.

  • SL can't print over the network to Epson AcuLaser CX11NF

    I create a bonjour print queue in snow leopard to the Epson AcuLaser CX11NF and it fails to print with with Yellow Triangle Unable to connect ot printer; will try in 30 seconds
    Then I get the following error
    /Library/Printers/EPSON/LaserPrinter/GD2/filter/pdftoescpage.app/Contents/MacOS/ pdftoescpage failed
    On the same network with another MAC running OS X 10.5.x it an print no trouble. Also if I connect to the 10.5.x shared printer I can print from SL.
    I just updated to 10.6.1 and it didn't fix a thing.
    I can print if I directly connect via a USB cable to the printer.
    Why is printing so broken in SL, did they ship it before they completed development and testing ?

  • Can't Get MacBook Pro and Mac Pro to Network

    I have a MacBook Pro (2008 - 2.5 Ghz. Core 2 Duo with 4 Gb of RAM running OS X 10.6.7) that I have been connecting to my Mac Pro (2005 - 2 2.66 Ghz Xeon with 20 Gb of RAM running OS X 10.6.7) through an Ethernet switch on my school's network. This has worked without a hitch for years, but when I upgraded to 10.6.7 recently, the MacBook and Mac Pro fail to network. On the MacBook Pro, the Mac Pro's icon doesn't show in the shared area, and on the Mac Pro, I can see the icon for the MacBook Pro, but when I click on the icon to connect, I get the message that "Connection Failed There was an error connecting to the server (name of my MacBook Pro). Check the server name or IP address, and then try again." I have tried a direct connect using the "Connect to Server" under the Go menu on both machines, using their IP addresses, but no luck. Is there something I need to re-set to get these two to talk again? I have other Macs on the same network that my MacBook and my Mac Pro can see, and both machines can connect to them. They just can't connect to each other.
    Thanks in advance for any ideas you might have on  how to fix this.

    I fixed the problem by re-setting the default values for my VirusBarrier X6 anti-virus program.

    My 10.8.3 update did not install properly citing an 'Unknown Error'. Now, my Mail and Mac App Store aren't working. What went wrong and how do i fix it ?

    I tried this and still have the same problems. If I open Address book or the Mac App Store I get the library rebuild popup and a hang. I created a fresh user and then things are better apart from the printing issue. Its clearly some 3rd party software issue but the crash logs are meningless to me. I used the excellent Etre check app from http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck so I have a list of what is being loaded and can compare clean and crashed user info but as I cant work out which of the startup items, launch agents, launch daemons etc that  are causing the problem.
    I have eliminated Dropbox, Mac Keeper and Witness, and it isnt related to my exterrnal LED cinema dispay or my external thunderbolt drives, or any USB devices if thats any help to anyone else. Info from Etrecheck follows -

  • Dell Venue Pro 11 w/Dock / Unable to concurrently use ethernet and wifi?

    Does anyone know why you are unable to use the dock ethernet connection and the tablet's wifi connection at the same time? 
    I assume this is a limitation of the dock / tablet because if you hook a laptop up you can use the ethernet and wifi at the same time because they have different MAC addresses.
    Thanks for any assistance you can provide....

  • Cisco VPN client and mac mail

    Hi all,
    I wonder if someone can be more helpful than my uni IT department who take a minimum of a week to get you an IP address...
    My new uni uses Cisco VPN client for connection to the Wi-Fi network. It all works great apart from one (very annoying problem):-my e-mail accounts in mac mail don't seem to be able to connect via the VPN. I have had both an IMAP and a POP server e-mail account work automatically wherever I connect in the world for over a year now-so its not the way I've set up the accounts.
    Is there any way to get mac mail to "see" the VPN connection. If I have to physically plug-in my mac this seems a tad ridiculous when it works in every coffee shop with free wi-fi.
    My uni are not helpful as they want people to use either outlook or better still log-on to their e-mail using the web. I don't even want to use their e-mail-what is the point when I move jobs again in a year. What I do currently is use an IMAP account from my last job which I've set to forward to my "e-mail for life" from my undergrad uni. I basically only give out my life e-mail address and this also goes on all my papers.
    If I can't access this easily and sort all my mail in all the folders I've created to filter out things like facebook etc. I'm wondering what the point of mac mail is.

    Yeah, that stuff normally works for me. Unfortunately this is a situation where you have to use an external Cisco VPN client software, whether you like it or not. Its this horrible clunky thing (which at least half works I guess). So its only like normal wi-fi in terms of selecting the network, then you have to open up this application and put in your log-in etc. Most of the settings on this client seem locked, so there isn't much I can do to configure it.
    I've just got to my (temporary) accommodation which doesn't have wi-fi or VPN (just ethernet) and my mail is working again-so it must be the VPN. Goodness knows how it works with an iPod touch (interested in getting one but kind of pointless if I spend most of my time at work and it doesn't work...)
    Thanks for your suggestions though!

  • How can I remove iCloud from my Mac Book and iPad and Mac Book Air and then just reload back on the MB Air and iPad only?

    How can I remove iCloud from my Mac Book and iPad and Mac Book Air and then just reload back on the MB Air and iPad only, which have a different user with a separate Apple ID?

    You have quite muddied up the waters, I'm afraid. Assuming you now have a single GUID partition formatted Mac OS Extended, Journaled, you should try reinstalling Lion:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
