Can't print contact sheets on Epson R1800 with LR3

I upgraded to Lightroom 3 a few months ago and can't print contact sheets on 13x16" sheets using my Epson R1800 (it worked fine before in Lightroom 2).
I have this problem on both an iMac and Macbook Pro, both running the latest version of Snow Leopard.
I've tried re-installing the drivers, open the program in 32 bit mode and no joy.
I can use the Print Module no problem and can print 4x6 single prints or even do a 2x2 contact sheet on a 4x6. I can also print a 7x7 contact sheet on a 13x19" sheet using draft mode, but if I try to use profiles (the images are way too dark in draft mode), LR will spend a few minutes rendering the images, while this is happening the job appears in the Epson utility, but once LR has finished rendering, the progress bar disappears along with the job in the Epson utility and nothing happens?
Anybody experience something similar?
Thanks in advance for replying.
John

Print Drivers on OS X aren't the same as on Windows...
You can't use an Epson driver made for USB-only Epson printers, because they wrote the driver to only work via USB. To use the CUPS Windows printer protocol, you need a driver written to use CUPS. The Gutenprint drivers Apple included in OS X are CUPS drivers. An update is here:

If your specific model isn't yet supported, try other model drivers.

Can I print contact sheets from Iphoto or aperture with file names?

I can not figure out nor am I sure it can be done with these programs but if someone out there can tell me how I would be very happy. I have several jobs I need contacts on I have been printing contact sheets and then handwriting the file numbers. To old fashion for me. HELP

1. In the browser pane in Aperture, select the images you need.
2. File>Print...
3. On the left-hand side of the print dialog, click on 'Sample Contact Sheet Preset'.
4. In the layout options there is a drop-down menu for which metadata set you want to show below the images. You may get away with using 'Name Only' which gives you the current Version Name, otherwise you may have to make a new metadata set* containing just the filename.

* Making new metadata sets has been covered several times on the forum, the search function is your friend.

Why this occurs? What should done in Excel?

Thank you for reporting this issue. This is a known issue that we had fixed last week. In a few days, the updated version of the app will be available in the Windows store. At that time, your app should automatically get updated to the newest version, if
you have not changed your default settings.
If you still experience issues next week this time, please post back and perhaps share your workbook, so we can do a thorough investigation.
Thank you.

Can't print contact sheet in iPhoto 11

iPhoto 11 9.4.3: OS 10.8.5; iMac mid 2011; Epson WP-4020 printer. All of a sudden, I cannot print a contact sheet from iPhoto. Had no problem doing so before. I now get error message from printer "Paper out, incorrect loading, or paper jam," none of which apply. No problem printing individual photos or anything else. Other posts have indicated a problem with a theme not being selected and to select one after clicking on a theme button. I cannot find the theme button to check this out. Where is this button and would this solve my problem?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.

Can't print contact sheet (was Ron A B)

How do I print a contact sheet in PSE11?

What I would try at this point is using the installer to uninstall Elements. You choose Remove Components rather than Install components when you get to that screen. Then create a new admin user (system preferences>user accounts, and be sure to turn on the box to let the new user administer the computer). Log in as that user and run the install from there. If PSE works okay, then you can go back to your regular account and delete the new user. Don't forget to repair permissions after installing.

Can pages print a sheet of Avery labels, with the same address on all labels? If not, why not?

How do you print the same address on a sheet of Avery labels using Pages? If not, why not?

It is possible. Download the Pages template form here > Open the template in Pages. Fill in the desired information in the first cell. Copy the information (address) Hold the cursor down and scroll down one column of labels and hit paste > it should be highlighted. Repeat by highlighting the next column and paste. You probably using 30 up labels so there would be 3 columns. Hope that helps.

Printing Contact Sheets

Hello
I am trying to print a 4.5 x 5.75 contact sheet of 8 images, which I have saved as a preset. I have printed this many times in the past but this time I am getting a error message (which appears in the print dialog box too quickly for me to read.)
Anyways it seems to be isolated to printing contact sheets. If I try to print a single image from Aperture there is no problem. I have tried rebuilding my Aperture library, tried rebooting, but don't know what else to try?
Any suggestions?
Thanks for the help.
Shane

Miklos:
One poster pointed out that you could create a book using the Year Book theme. There you can select to have anywhere from 1 to 32 images per page and include the file names underneath the photos if desired. Then print the book to PDF and then print each page to hardcopy. Don't know if that will reduce your overall assembly time but you will be able to have the file names or titles printed also.
Another way is to create an html gallery, display in Safari and then print. Here's how:
Creating Contact Sheet with Titles
1 - Put the files you want to print in an album and arrange in the order you'd like.
2 - Go to the File->Export->Web Page menu option.
3 - While in the Web page window, select the number of thumbnails you'd like across each page (iPhoto will keep you informed on how many pages it will take).
4 - Click on Show Title under thumbnails and click on Export. Then select the location where you'd like the resulting files to be saved (create a temporary folder to contain them).
5 - Once saved, go the folder and open the index.html file with your browser. You will get a page with your thumbnails and titles beneath them.
6 - Print that browser page and you've got your contact sheet with file names (or comments if desired).
If you want more control over the thumbnail gallery, try using BetterHTMLExport or Galerie
Good luck.

How on Earth do you Print Contact Sheet in Landscape Orientation in the new iPhoto?

Just upgraded to Maverick and new iPhoto and boy am I sorry. In the last version of of iPhoto it was really difficult to print 4 to a page contact sheets from iPhoto in landscape mode. Why would you want to print in any othe mode when most photos are taken in landscape?
Pleae help as I have to print these photos ASAP for a client.

First set the page size to letter- borderless. Next after selecting the Contact theme click on the Print Settings button and reset the page size to 11 wide and 8.5 high.
Finally set the columns to 2 which will give you this:
To test it without having to print each time use the PDF ➙ Save as PDF menu option. If all looks good you can print from the PDF file.
There's no provision for adding a title at the top of the page. However, create a TextEdit, Word, Pages, etc., document, put the title at the top and print over the printed contact sheet.

Printing Contact Sheets in Elements 5.0

When printing contact sheets is it possible to also print file #'s or a number of my choosing under the pictures? I've been able to do this with previous versions but can't seem to find it in version 5. Thanks for any help...

Having chosen Contact Sheet as the Type of Print, you can choose to print File name.
Whether the file name contains a number useful for this purpose probably depends on your workflow.
Personally, I would not consider another choice - Caption - useful for this purpose because the caption is a permanent part of the photo file and does not seem applicable for a specific contact sheet. Yet there are some cases where it might work.

Printing to my epson R1800 with Lightroom2.4 and to Photoshop CS4

I use to be able to print from my lightroom 2 to my epson R1800, with all my ICC profiles, but after I upgraded to Lightroom2.4 and to Photoshop CS4 I can't seem to print from that app. Anyone have a clue.. I've spoken to tech support for hours on end and still I can't print. I was able to print once directly from photoshop, but after doing everything that was told to me by tech support, now even printing from CS4 is a dead end.

John,
Thanks for responding, I'm still using Tiger @ OS10.4 and my printer
drivers are up to the latest drivers. I've trashed both LR and Epson
and reinstalled both... I haven't dumped the preferences, so that's
worth a try
Thanks Again
John

Unable to print Contact Sheets from iPhoto

Hi there,
Since installing Lion 10.7.5 on my Mac Pro I no longer get the option to print Contact Sheets from iPhoto. I'm running quite an old version of it I think (Version 6.0.6), however this was no problem before the upgrade.
Can anyone suggest a solution for this?
Thanks in advance.

I just fired up my iPhoto 6.0.6 under Mt. Lion and I have no contact option in that version either. You'll have to upgrade to at least iPhoto 7 (08) in order to get contact sheets back. So you might as well upgrade to the latest iPhoto from the App Store.
If you also want the latest versions of iWeb and iDVD (which have been discontinued by Apple) you'll have to purchase a copy of the iLife 11 disc from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: iLife 11.

Printing contact sheet from iPhoto

How can I print a contact sheet from iPhoto that retains the order of photos in my album?
I've placed the photos of which I want to make a contact sheet in their own album. I've organized them according to how I'd like them to print. However, when I go to print/contact sheet/custom to set the number of images per page and hit the print button, the photos are reorganized according the the main photo folder into which the images were originally imported - that is to say, by date order.

My printer does support landscape and portrait printing. It is the latest version of iPhoto 9.5.3 that only offers a minimal choice of printer, paper size and paper type. There are no formatting options available other than "Fit, Fill, Custom, 20x25cm, 13x18cm, 10x15cm and contact sheet". Another example of Appple degrading software to make it iOS compatible!
Perhaps Apple should be reading what their customers are complaining about and do something to restore the quality of their downgraded software.

I've added caption information to my files, but not all the information prints when I try to print contact sheets. Please advise.

I've added caption information to my files and when I go to print contact sheets, not all of the caption information will print. Is there some limit on information for captions? I've added several lines of information. Thanks for your assistance.
Regards,
Alan

HI Leonie,
Thanks for the input. I checked it out and you are correct in that only 3 lines of information can be printed. I've adjusted my information for 3 line s and it works.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Alan
