Apple update for Epson printers (16 Aug 13) has produced "rastertoescpII quit unexpectedly" message (and printer won't work)

After downloading an update for 10.7 Lion, my printer won't work . . . and produces this message:
"rastertoescpII quit unexpectedly. This report will be sent to Apple automatically . . .

Hello,
I don't think I will be able to give you any points since I am not the OP, but thank you so much for your answer.
I had a problem accessing the iTunes Store and APP Store last night although I had wi-fi access. AppleCare had me delete the "system configuration" folder in Preferences and everthing worked fine afterwards.
But, this morning my printer would not print. It's Sunday and I can't get through to Epson, so I started a search at this forum and found your response. Sure enough, even though I did not do a software update, the trashing of the System Configuration folder removed the computer name that always shows in Sharing.
I typed it back in and now I am able to print. Again, thank you.
B.

Try installing the Epson drivers from here:

and then seeing if adding and printing with USB works.
This site really works and my computer is now printing.

Problem with OSX Update for Epson Printers

II installed an OSX update a couple of days ago - was for Epson printers. Ever since then my Epson won't print. I've tried everything. I keep getting a message that "Filter" failed. Any fixes coming up for this?

I just had to go into system preferences for the printer and click on the printer and then click on sharing preferences and type in my computer name. Then turn off the computer and turn it back on again and the printer now WORKS. Amazing.
That solved the same problem for me also. I had already gone into Time Machine and put back the old Epson files that were changed by the update, but that didn't fix the problem. Typing the computer name fixed it.

Hello,
It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
Reset the Firewire bus
If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device. A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
1. Shut the machine down.
2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
3. leave it for 10 minutes.
4. Connect back up and reboot.

Software Update for Lexmark Printers

When running software update it shows an update for Lexmark printers. If this software is used the printer does not function. Lexmark recommends manually downloading their latest drivers from their web site. I did and the printer now functions, but software update still shows that a download is required.
I looked at the software update information on Apple's web page and it shows a method to disregard update recommendations, but my software update does not have the capabilities they show.
I would love to get rid of the Lexmark update message.
All other updates have worked including the newest one for Snow Leopard.

Try re-indexing Spotlight.

If you haven't done so already, try resetting the printing system.

Thank you... one would think that if Apple needed to push out something so important they would make it more obvious!!!

Software Update for Brother printers disabled my printer

This morning I installed a Software Update for Brother printers and now I can't print. Every time I try, I was gettting an error message that says some of my software is missing and it asked if I wanted to install it. A window opened looked like it was looking in Software Update and it didn't find any software. I deleted the printer in Printers and Faxes and downloaded the CUPS driver from Brother that says it's compatible with OS 10.7. Now I can't add the printer. When I go through the steps to add the printer, for Print Using I select HL-2140 series, which is the model of my printer. I click on Add and the Add Printer window starts looking for the printer software, but I think it's looking in Software Update. The message comes up "the software for this printer is currently unavailabe. Please contact the printer's manufacturer for the latest software. I did that, but how can I get it to use the driver I downloaded from Brother instead of looking for it in Software Update?

This helped with both my Brother printer and my HP AIO. I was having marginal printer function after installing OS X Lion, then replace the Airport Express with an Airport Extreme. That knocked out everything....After several days of loading and reloading programs in different permutations, this relatively simple step was the charm.
THANKS!!

I am trying to install the latest update for HP Printers, it will not completely install ,now my printers won't work. Help!

I am trying to install the latest update for HP Printers, it will not completely install ,now my printers won't work. Help!

Hello Carolyn - Thank you for your quick response to my concerns, I had already gone to the HP support site and tried to get the latest HP drivers, the site said for Lion 10.7 there was NA version. So, I just used my time machine to replaced the OS from that time spot. I got my printers working again, so all right with the printer. But, the fact remains that I still keep getting the New Update HP Printer in the software update window. But, what happens if I try to download and install it is this: It starts the download, everything seems to come down fine, it starts write the files and then starts moving items into place, the blue bar fills to all most the end and slows down to a stop and never completes the installation. I have left my laptop on over night and it never finishes the operation. I can only force quit the software update. Which has knock out my printer drivers. Now, I just keep unchecking the box in the software updates for new HP printer software. Is anyone else having this problem or is it just my system? Sincerely: Professor G

When will Apple update for Olympus E-PL1 RAW???

Just frustrated that RAW files from my Olympus E-PL1 are not supported in Aperture 3.

Unfortunately, no one here knows what plans Apple have for supporting this - or any - camera. Aperture menu -> Provide Aperture Feedback and let them know you want it.
