Anyone using CS3 and Epson 1280?

I'm sure this may end up being an OSX issue but is it just that hard these days centering an image on the 1280?
CS3 and OSX up to dat plus supposedly latest Epson driver.
thanks

I have Leopard correct.
I do have the 1280 selected in both setup & print and I'm using 4x6 where in this instance I'm printing and image that is 3.75x XX so there's a border.
Also it seems I can no longer see an option to select 1280 border-less when once I could in the days of 10.4.
I downloaded the 1270 driver from the UK sire but will try it tomorrow. They didn't list a 1280, just a 1270 & 1290.
I'll post my results soon. and I will try the "minimize margins" too.
Thanks for all your help so far.

Photoshop CS3 and Epson printer

I have PS CS3 with an Epson 4000 running on windows XP. I know Adobe is aware of a problem in which under some circumstances, (when you use roll paper) PS will print a smaller image off center and displaying in the interface the portrait mode despite me clicking landscape. I also know Adobe has a technote that offers solutions (I am already using version 10.0.1 with Bridge 2.1.1.9. Also solutions 2,3, and 4 on the tech notes have not worked. I tried different combinations and permutations of settings to no avail. Now I work on CS3 on the image, save it, and print it on CS2 which I kept on my computer, and has no problems printing. Can you please keep this as an on-going problem, since it has not been solved yet? Any feedback on this? There are a lot of Epson printer out there, and printing for a photographer is absolutely important. Thanks.

Have spent hours with both Adobe and Epson support people. I've read several of these forums. Is there an insurmountable problem with CS3 and Epson (2200/2400 are mine)? I have the Leopard patches and upgrade 10.5.4.
With Photoshop managing the color I get prints that are slightly underexposed and carry a pink cast. Color management is off. With the printer managing the color I get prints that are too green and dark. Epson advice here is to have color management off. There are two other choices for management but to adjust a perfectly balanced print to the printer's whim seem like cruel punishment.
Have a calibrated monitor and my CS2 works beautifully. Perhaps the best idea is to just go back to CS2 until Adobe and Epson can decide what to do. According to Adobe people, the CS3 gives much of the management back to Epson. According to Epson -- with CS3, you should choose the printer to manage the color (since this seems to be the trend between the two companies) but we users are not happy with the results.
What is the solution for right now?

Color Management, Photoshop CS3 and Epson Inkjet Printer

I have been down this road before but here goes again...
Im using Photoshop CS3.
Im printing on an Epson Stylus Photo RX680 using Photo quality inkjet paper.
I know this printer is capable of very good quality prints.
Thing is I can not figure out the correct combination of color management settings to get a decent print out of Photoshop or InDesign.
I have read that you are supposed to turn off all printer color management and let Adobe manage the color. Doesnt seem to work.
I just get overly magenta images that look awful.
If I let the Epson color management control color I can get a lot closer but the print out is far from accurate or high quality.
So what the heck IS the correct protocol for printing to an Epson inkjet printer from an Adobe app.
BTW, I do seem to get a fairly decent print out of something like a PDF which I understand does its own postscript conversion before hitting the printer.
Is this what my issue is?
Does Photoshop or InDesign require postscript ripper software to get decent results out of an inkjet printer?

Getting files from a business that uses Photoshop CS6. I use CS3 and have text problems

Hi, I'm getting files from a business that uses Photoshop CS6. I use CS3 and when I edit the text, the text moves to a different location even off screen.
Anyone know how to fix this?
It makes it hard to copy the text and imposible to change the color or make corrections.
This just started when they went to Photoshop CS6.
Thanks,
Jeffery

Ask the folks supplying you with files whether they've updated to the latest version... There were problems with Photoshop CS6 13.0.0. saving text layers in jumbled-up fashion.
-Noel

I am using CS3 and want to save a file as a pdf where someone can then edit the text. How can I do this please? Thank you :)

You might be able to use the newest adobe reader program/application for that.
You would have to save your pdf out of photoshop cs3 without any text and then add the text to the pdf in adobe reader.
The text added in adobe reader can't be edited in photoshop, so the other people would have to adobe reader or acrobat to edit the text.

T4i... lousy SD video... has anyone used SD and had final edit look ok. on timeline its a disaster.

T4i... lousy SD video... has anyone used SD and had final edit look ok. on timeline its a disaster. cell phone does better video.. im a pro video type and at this point may return cam and wait for a more capable eos.. like a mirrorless 60d...

Speedorms,
I would like to help determine what is causing this.
What exactly are you seeing that is poor quality in the video from your EOS Rebel T4i?
What are you using to edit your video?
What settings are you using to edit the video?
When you refer to SD, are you referring to the card in the camera or Standard Definition video?
If you prefer a mirrorless design, we do have the new EOS M. You may want to take a look at that model to see if it has the features you are looking for.

Anyone using openstreetmap and mapviewer/mapbuilder to create maps

anyone using openstreetmap and mapviewer/mapbuilder to create maps?

Ok, I do exactly as you specify here. In addition I import the needed jars from the import folder of j2mepolish. Also, I put the resources folder from the polish sample (MenuMidlet) in the project, and all marked errors disappears.
Then I try to run it as an Ant build, and get the following error:
BUILD FAILED
D:\Program Files\eclipse31\j2me\sample\build.xml:115: The MIDlet [source.src.de.enough.polish.example.MenuMidlet] could not be found. Check your <midlet>-setting in the file [build.xml] or adjust the [sourceDir] attribute of the <build>-element.The MIDlet should be in D:\Program Files\eclipse31\j2me\sample\source\src\source\src\de\enough\polish\example\MenuMidlet.java
Ok - so it seems that it for some reason gets "source\src" two times. So I go back to the <midlet class and remove the source.src, leaving just de.enough.polish.example.
Then I run as Ant again, and it compiles successfully.
However, when I try to run the MenuMidlet class as a j2me midlet (in eclipse) it starts, and then crash with this error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: de/enough/polish/util/Locale
     at source.src.de.enough.polish.example.MenuMidlet.<init>(+11)
     at java.lang.Class.runCustomCode(+0)
     at com.sun.midp.midlet.MIDletState.createMIDlet(+19)
     at com.sun.midp.midlet.Scheduler.schedule(+52)
     at com.sun.midp.main.Main.runLocalClass(+28)
     at com.sun.midp.main.Main.main(+116)
So - seemingly - to compile it I need to give it one address, but for the midlet to run it must be compiled with an address that won't let it compile :-)
Well - then I create a J2ME package from the project, and run the deployed/sample.jad file. Then the midlet actually starts, but when I click Launch, the display shows:
New Midlet de.enough.polish.ui.MenuBar Exception: java.lang.classNotFoundException: de/enough/polish/ui/MenuBar
I can't find a reference to MenuBar anywhere in the sample code.

Printing Problems with CS3 and Epson R1800

Recently upgraded to CS3 and have now lost most printing options for Epson Stylus Photo R1800. Had no problems with CS2 running in Leopard. Anyone know what has happened?

>"Unfortunately then I'd have to say all bets are off. The only true test is to print with the standard materials that Epson has designed their printer for. Only if that works well should you be trying third-party materials. For example, third-party inks in general are of poorer quality, are inconsistent, clog more, and in the long run, do not save you anywhere the amount of money they advertise over the genuine Epson products."
Getting very nice results with an R1800, Inkjetfly CIS, and Red River paper. The R1800 has never had Epson ink run through it and has no abnormal clogging problems. In fact, clogs are rare.
Getting near perfect matches to the monitor with both Colorvision and x-rite calibrating/profiling equipment. The printer stays on 24-7 so the only ink used, other than printing, is a periodic nozzle check. I am not alone in this, so blanket statements like the above are specious at best.
And no, I don't sell prints for big bux, so whether they are going to last a hundred years is not a concern. Besides, until someone is around long enough to verify those claims, the jury is out. I've got color prints from the wet days that are fading after 20+ years. Third party inks are not necessarily lower quality than OEM. One of the reasons for the development of high quality third party inks was the dissatisfaction of B&W and fine art printers with the OEM products.
Of course the cheap refilled/knockoff carts being hawked on ebay and the like are a different story.

Photoshop CS3 and Epson R2400

Since I installed Leo on my Mac Pro, my R2400 will not work as it used to. I can not access the printers option menu where I can setup the paper, printer resolution, etc. When I am printing out of photoshop CS3 I will only get a standard printer menu provided by Mac OS and not by epson. I can´t change any settings and the prints come out terrible. I use the latest Epson driver - 6.12 - but nothing works as it should. Does anybody experience the same problems or might have a solution for this? I got plenty of print jobs to do before christmas! Thank you for any hints ... Jochen, Germany

Jochen,
I managed to get my 2400 printing OK now. I spent a completely wasted hour e-talking to Epson UK Support yesterday. They offered nothing useful and spent all the time telling me to do obvious things, which was very frustrating. Then I decided to go back to basics. I ditched all the personalised settings in all the print dialogue boxes and tried printing with only basic settings. I had professional print profiles for each of my papers and printers, but none of these will now work and I think that they were the crux of the problem.
This is what I did:
Step 1 - I turned off my printer. After ditching the entire Epson folder from the library and restarting Leopard, I downloaded the current Mac drivers from the Epson Support website and started by reinstalling the 2400 from scratch. I turned on my printer. I ran the downloaded installer and then went into Apple/Preferences/printers and faxes and removed the 2400 that leopard had installed with the gutenburg driver. I then installed the 2400 again through this screen and checked that the downloaded Epson 6.12 driver had installed. It had.
Step 2 - I went to page set-up for the photo I wanted to print in Photoshop CS3 and in Format For: I selected Epson Stylus Photo R2400 and in paper size: I selected A4 (sheet feeder - borderless) and clicked OK
Step 3 - I selected File/print. In Printer I selected Epson Stylus Photo R2400. In colour handling I selected Printer Manages Colour and in Rendering Intent I selected Relative Colorimetric. The I pressed the Print button.
step 4 - I then pressed Proceed in the larger than paper dialogue box taht then appeared and this closed.
Step 5 - This brings you to the Epson Printer Dialogue box. I selected the Print Settings section and selected Premium Glossy Photo paper as the Media Type. In colour settings I selected Epson Standard (sRGB). and selected the Advanced radar button below and best photo as the print quality. When I pressed print I got a good quality print....and it seems to work every time now!
I have also tried this with my Epson 950 and it also works. In fact I am getting better prints with this one than I was before Leopard!
Don't ask my why it is working this way. I don't know. I used to let Photoshop CS3 manage the colour using my profiles, but this will not work now. I suspect that as my profiles were done in tiger they are Tiger dependent. I will contact my supplier next week and discuss this with him. I am still disappointed that I seem to have lost complete control over my printing and blame Apple and Epson in equal measure. From my "discussions" with Epson support it is clear that their "fix" is aimed at the amateur user and not those requiring control over the production phase!
I hope this helps.
David

10.5 with Adobe CS2 and epson 1280 - no printer dialogue box

I have recently upgraded from Tiger to Leopard and now when I run Photoshop CS2 and try to print on the Epson 1280, there is no choice for paper quality and other settings. It just prints and it is just awful.
I have the latest drivers installer (CUP and Guten).
I also have CS3 put that wouldn't work with any Epson printer and had to de-install it (year ago).

John,
In photoshop, the triangle jut opened up the main parameters box. In there is a 'printer features' button this is where the media selection is. They changed the tags. Thanks for the help.

I Reinstalled Premiere Pro CS3, loaded a project I edited using CS3, and NOW I get jagged edges!

Hey everyone. I was using Premiere Pro CS3 to edit some footage I shot with my HPX170 in 1080i 24p Advanced. The P2 footage looked great in Premiere CS3. I upgraded to Premiere CS5, imported the same exact project into CS5 using the same 1080i 24p Advanced setting, and I got jagged stair stepping edges on the objects that were in sharp focus in my footage. Okay, I thought, I'll just reinstall Premiere Pro CS3 and continue editing the footage in CS3 since it looked normal in CS3 with no jagged edges. But, to my surprise, I'M GETTING THE SAME EXACT THING NOW IN PREMIERE PRO CS3!!!! What in the heck is up with that? How can the footage look normal when I imported and editied it before in CS3 and NOW I get jagged stair stepping edges?!!!! I even tried importing a fresh clip from the footage and that clip still has the jagged stair stepping edges. This makes no sense whatsoever! Does anyone know what's going on with this? It seems like an interlace artifact problem BUT, if that's the case, why didn't it do this the first time in Premiere Pro CS3? And trust me, I would have noticed right away if it did!

Hey Shooternz. Which exact playback settings are you asking about? I set the one of the playback settings to "Highest Quality" instead of "Automatic" and nothing changed. I unchecked 24p Pulldown in the "Interpret Footage" section and nothing changed (I don't even remember "24p Pulldown" being in the Interpret Footage section the first time I installed CS3, which is strange. Was that added in an update?). I tried different sizes like HD 1.5, HD 16:9, etc. in the Interpret Footage section and the jaggies are still there. Nothing seems to work. ??? This is weird because they weren't there the first time I edited the footage in CS3 when I installed CS3 the first time. One thing I noticed is, when I installed CS3 the second time and loaded the project, as the project was loading, I got a message that said something like "These project settings cannot be loaded. We will now switch to Desktop Mode." Would that have something to do with it you think?

Can I use CS3 and CS6 both on the same Mac?

Hello
I just purchased the upgrade from CS3 ti CS6 web and design premium MLP TLP.
Before to install I need to know if I can use both CS on the same Mac, to avoid problems with old files and be sure I could work.
Also I need to know if I can install CS6 on the two Mac internal hard drives, one with Snow Leopard MacOS (10.6.8) and one with the Lion MacOS (10.7.x). In some cases I must use Snow Leopard for compatibility issue with other software.
Thanks a lot

Installing on two partitions uses two activations, but can be done with no issue. There is no issue on running CS3 and CS6 on the same Mac. However, there is no guarentee that running CS3 on a newer machine will be totally error free. But I think for the most part you should be ok on Snow Leopard.

Using CS3 and CS4 on the same computer

I have CS3 and have used it for about two years completing many projects and I am considering upgrading to either CS4 or CS5. When and if i do this will I have to delete CS3 and replace it with the newer version or can they both remain functional on the computer? And how compatible are the projects, can you open a CS3 project in CS4 or CS5 without issues?

CS5 will ask to convert and save new copies of your CS3 and 4 projects when you open them. They will work in CS5, but they will not be backwards-compatible.
And how compatible are the projects, can you open a CS3 project in CS4
or CS5 without issues?

Anyone Using BT and Skype

Just got a MBP 17inch i7 and have installed skype. I'm new to Apple and On my PC I have Paired a Jawbone Prime and use Skype to make Phone Calls. Is anyone using a BT with Skype on the MBP?

Hi Rachel,
The mac mail application should work with SMTP just fine. I have three SMTP accounts set up and two IMAP accounts running without problems.
Are you using BT email addresses? if yes the mail server should be mail.btinternet.com (incoming & outgoing). Be careful with BT passwords as they are case sensitive.
In the outgoing mail server drop down box the SMTP mail server should also include your email address e.g. it should say mail.btinternet.com:your [email protected]
I have had one problem with BT Mail, I found that if you log in via
http://edit.europe.yahoo.com/config/login?.intl=uk&.partner=bt-1&.done=http%3a// bt.yahoo.com/%3f
using your email adress and password you will be asked to verify your password, once done, the mail app will work.
If you not using BT mail then apologies.
