12 x 18 photo prints 11.5 x 17.5 on 17x22 CPB paper on Epson 4880

I am using Lightroom 5.6 on my Mac Pro (OS 10.10) and my 12 x18 photo print undersize (11.5 x 17.5 on the epson 4880. However, it prints correctly with the same setup when printed from my MacBook Pro.  I have wasted lots of paper and ink trying to get the Mac Pro to print correctly. What could cause the reduction in size? Epson CPB Paper.  Paper Setup: Manual Feed, Sheet-Borderless (Retain Size).  However, on the Mac Pro it does not retain size.  I spent 1.5 hours on the phone with Epson and they believe it maybe a problem with Lightroom 5.  Please help.  Thanks,

I run a Konica Minolta Bizhub Pro 5500 driven by a Fiery RIP. Lets see what might be common.
They Fiery, from Acrobat's Print > Properties button, does it look anything like this?
If so, let's clear all the settings by selecting Preset > Untitled, say no to the "Save Current Settings, go to the layout tab, toggle booklet and click settings
Click next through to the Paper Size for 2-up, set 12 x 18,  Document Size 8.5 x 11S

  • Bug: c410b - hp photo print gadget 2.0 32bit does not have plain paper in drop down

    printer:  c410b
    os:  windows 7 ultimate 32bit
    hp photo print sidebar gadget does not have plain paper in the paper type drop down and also resets itself to default if you close and re-open the gadget.
    also, if i select the 'fax' bit of it...  plain paper become available.  return to the 'non-fax' bit...  it reverts to only the glossy paper types.
    also tested the old 2008 dated gadget that i found buried on your ftp server.  same behaviour.
    64 bit does and works perfectly.
    verified on 5 machines.  latest 'full' exe used to install.  never touched the cd.
    same behaviour after removing and re-installing the gadget with the download file from hp web site.
    edit:  for any hp staff - online chat with your tech (who couldn't help) reference is 8590546

    bump.  got an email today saying to call HP in the USA because I have the wrong printer settings.  they also quoted a c410a even though i told them numerous times a c410b.
    number 1 - i'm in the UK and don't want to call USA to be on hold for an hour for some college-drop-out to tell me *i'm* wrong.
    number 2 - 5 32bit machines and i went round to a different location and tried 3 more machines there.  same.
    number 3 - *what* setting?  you install the gadget, click the options 'wrench' and the paper types are in there...  *everything* else on the printer works...  just not the 32 bit gadget - no plain paper available to choose and paper tray keeps reverting to photo tray.
    number 4 - it works on several 64 bit machines, with the same settings.
    i'm guessing a system-locale issue where the gadget doesn't poll the driver properly for UK paper sizes or something.
    any help?  anyone?

  • Photo Printing from Networked Windows 7

    My HP Photosmart Printer is  USB connected to a Windows XP machine which is directly attached to the home network.  Also have a Windows 7 64 machine  wirelessly connected to the home network.  The Photosmart printer was added to the windows 7 machine and selected as the default printer and I have no problems printing to it from the Windows 7 machine except that I only recently found out that I cannot select from various photo paper sizes to print photos from the Windows 7 computer.  All various printing programes only give me a limited selection of paper sizes to choose from when configuing the printing - Letter, A4, A5 Envelope, Legal, etc.   The same programs on the XP machine offer the choice of various photo paper sizes to print to.  It seems as though all of the Photosmart configuration options are not available via the Windows 7 computer. Should I try to install the printer on the Windows 7 machine again, directly from a downloaded HP installation file?

    Hi,
    Well, looks like you have to install drivers on the Windows 7 machine (if supported) but I how do we know your printer to find out ?.

  • How to print with a Canon Compact Photo Printer CP-330?

    never found a so hard issue, I'm used to plug&play hardware...
    can anyone help me printing from iPhoto or Photoshop to a Canon Compact Photo Printer CP-330?
    I tried with Canon's drivers, with Gimp 5, anything... one time the printer started working, then stopped after the first pass (yellow color)... frustrating...
    thanks

    Hi there,
    If you have had no luck with the Canon or Gutenprint drivers then you may have a printer problem. Have you been able to print from it using your memory card directly connected?
    If you think/know the printer is okay then I would look at the cups error log to determine why the spool is failing. This log is located in the Console application.

  • Photo printing slow one line at a time

    My first time printing phots on my Officejet 4620 and it is taking 20 minutes per picture one line at a time. Very frustrated. Call the help line and was told tht how this printer works.....

    Many things can affect printing photos. Wireless connectivity (if applicable), paper size, print quality, software used to print the photo, printer design optimization (photo printer vs. office printer), security software used on your computer,  etc.....
    That being said, this photo printing document may offer some information of benefit:

  • The photo print quality from my Mac to my Epson Artisan 810 is poor.  When I take the same photo files (JPEGs) to my PC to print to the same printer without even uploading them to the PC, they print brighter and crisper from my PC.

    The photo print quality from my Mac to my Epson Artisan 810 is poor.  I just purchased my iMac for my photography business in Jan. (this is my first Mac).  When I first tried printing, I noticed the quality wasn't as good as I expected it to be.  Then, I had to print 4-3.5x5s on a sheet, so I e-mailed the image to myself and opened it on my PC to print it (much easier to print that way on PC in Windows Photo Gallery - I think it's impossible to print that way in iPhoto).  That's when I first noticed that when I take the same photo files (JPEGs) to my PC to print to the same printer without even uploading them to the PC, they print brighter and crisper from my PC.
    I've already been on the phone and e-mail w/Applecare many times over this issue. We've tried creating a test user and printing from there, and we've tried reinstalling the OS.  I've tried printing from iPhoto, ImageCapture, and Preview apps/utilities, all w/the same result - no comparison to the PC-printed versions (no enhancements have been performed on the PC).
    I'm out of ideas, and so is Applecare.  They say it's most likely a driver issue b/c the printer is outdated, and that the only solution is to buy a new printer.  BUT it is a pain for me to purchase a new printer - it takes days of research due to the nature of my business and the fact that I need a printer that can print directly onto a disc.  I love this printer and don't want to have to buy a new one if I don't have to.

    Yes.  I've checked for updates, and the driver I installed is the same as the one on Epson's website.  I also spoke with Epson Customer Service, which was a dead end.  Apple says the problem is due to an Epson driver issue (blaming Epson), but Epson says that with the older printers, it's actually Apple who creates the driver, so the problem is actually with Apple.  Typical he-said, she-said...

  • HP z6100 Photo prints are too dark and magenta density is too high, etc...

    Hi,
    Here's the problem. I am having digital portrait photos printed at 20" by 26" in. for wall displays on an HP Z6100 designjet using universal adhesive vinyl. The test prints came back dark and with strongly pronounced magenta and red in the skin tones.  I have a few questions that I hope you can help me with:
    1. Is universal vinyl really the best print medium for this or would some photographic paper like luster or matte yield better results?
    2. I am not in control of the printing process itself, but would providing the ICC profile for the printer/paper combination make a difference in correcting this issue?
    3. The images are jpegs and the color space is sRGB. Should I convert them to CMYK for better results?
    4. Any other suggestions please.
    Thanks for any help.

  • How do I set up my iPad to print using my canon pixma ip100 photo printer?

    How do I get my canon pixma ip100 photo printer to print  two pages from my iPad mini? Iam new with the computer terms & stuff, can any one please help me hook it up in easy terms...thankyou

    You would have to either use an app from Canon if they have one or use a 3rd party program such as Printopia, Print Central, Fingerprint, etc. That printer is not Airprint compatible.

  • Lack of EZ Photo Print PRO on the PRO-100 ONLY

    I've been using Canon printers for fifteen years, I think, so this is not so overly picky newbie observation.  For the last five years, iP4300 and 4500's, and a 9000 MK II.  All come with the Easy Photo Print EX, as does the PRO-100 printer.  Way too "EZ" for me, I can just use the built in printer dialogue boxes, thank you very much.  
    Not so long ago I discovered the Easy Photo Print PRO, which requires either an Adobe product, or Canon's Digital Photo Professional.   Not having a Canon digital camera, I did find a source to download the original DPP 1.0, then upgraded straight off of an EOS Canon page. 
    Very nice!  All of the dialogue boxes into one, or almost one screen.  And what is really worth the price of admission, the "Pattern Print."   What we old wet darkroom types called a "ring around."  Wow!  Fine tune your color profile w/o expensive profiling equipment. 
    So yesterday I got a new PRO-100 which added the Print Studio Pro to the DPP.  Of course I check it out.  HORRIBLE!   First, I just HATE this trend of gray text on black backgrounds.  Who thought this *&*^$% up?  Form did not follow function.  Then, all the choices, which seem to be pretty much the same as the EZPP PRO, are packed into a long slider box on the right.  Said sliders are very narrow, very hard to grab and move. 
    OK, I'll just no use this and continue with the EZPP PRO, right?  Wrong!  The latter recognizes both the iP4500 and the 9000, but not the PRO-100, while the new PSP sees all three printers.  Upon looking at all the current PRO printers, ONLY the PRo-100 does not list the EZPP PRO as compatible! 
    What's up with that, Canon?  This is illogical and really frustrating, especially for a long time Canon fan leading the charge against the Epson lemmings.
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the various print programs, nothing changes. 
    So at this point, with my PRO-100 I'm forced to either wade through dialogue boxes or find my anger rising with PSP.   The bit of good news is that one can get a "Pattern Print" from Manual Color adjustment, "Print a pattern for color adjustment."
    Rant done.  Awaiting immediate resolution from Canon.  Yeah, right.

    Well, I didn't get into the Adobe, pro/con, did I? I'm such a gentleman. The only way I could hurt myself is to pay a lot of money (which I don't have to spare) for programs that just aren't intuitive to me, to look at those damnable gray print on black backgrounds eyeball breakers, and have the use and control of programs so locked down I can't make a transfer to another machine without a call to Adobe.
    I'm a hobbyist, not in the graphics business, so I have lots of options. Nor do I do things because "everyone" does it, or it was the first program out there (Photoshop.)
    For quick looks at files and simple things, Irfanview. For complete digital asset management, digiKam. Open source, designed by Linux users, is ported to Windows, with maybe 95% good results. If I ever started working with layers and photoshop type manipulations, there's always The Gimp.
    For a po' boy like me, these are all I need and all are free.

  • Unable to print from a Mac using Maverick 10.9.2 on an Epson Photo printer with Photoshop CS4. Can you help?

    I am trying to print in Photoshop CS4 on an Epson Photo printer (3880) from my Mac. I just upgraded to Maverick 10.9.2 when the problem started. Can you help.

    I have the answer. It took quite a while but I know why the 3880 won't print from Photoshop 4 with Maverick. It is due to the Epson .icc page description files. The way to solve the problem is to make your own .icc. OK, so you don't know how to do it. This is what I did so now I get the quality prints I expect from an expensive printer.
    You need to go to www.datacolor.com/spyderprint and purchase the Spyderprint hardware and software. It comes as a package for $300 to $350 depending on if you get a sale. The software will print on the 3880 test sheets of color blocks. With the hardware reader you then read the colors on the test sheets printed. What this does is match the monitor image with the printer, ink and paper you used. It makes an .icc page description file for you to select instead of the Epson .icc file. When you print again select the new .icc file and also choose "Printer Manages Colors" instead of "Photoshop Manages Colors" I know this is usual but it works. When you are done you will be smiling too with your beautiful results.
    One other thing. If you want, it is optional, also purchase the Spider 4 Pro for $150. It calibrates your monitor and helps make excellent prints.
    I understand it is more money and you already probably have a good computer, expensive camera to go with the 3880 so spend the extra money so it all works together.
    I hope this helps.

  • Colormunkie Photo printer profile (*.ICM and *.ICC ) are not seen by LR4.2 in the Print Job section

    Colormunkie Photo printer profile (*.ICM and *.ICC ) are not seen by LR4.2 in the Print Job section
    I used Colormunkie Photo to create an .ICM file for printer calibration.   When that failed I tried changing the suffix to .ICC.  Under neither circumstance did LR4.2 display the file in the menu to select printer profile.  There were several display files with both suffixes but no printer files at all.  I tried three times with no success and cannot think of what else to try. The first two were the same.  I varied the file creation name suffix in the third.  Help will be appreciated. My OS is Win 7 ultimate SP1  Printer is HP 2550L laserjet.

    Tillman
    Glad you found your answer, Colormunki is smart enough to figure out the color space for the printer as I found out - But for quality work the latest generation of inkjet printers from Epson and Canon are hard to beat, and compared to a laserjet the quality is like night and day. The other benefit of changing up to an inkjet printer is the choice of papers available which you could not put through a laserjet.
    I had a colleague that tried printing on Photoglossy paper through his color laser and it fried the fuser, and HP, while they replaced the fuser unit under warranty, made it very clear that that was a daft thing to do.
    So if I were in your position I would go with an inkjet and you will then enjoy the benefits of better quality output, better paper choices and with your Colormunki be able to make custom profiles that will work in LR
    Cheers
    Mike
