Can't print now with Leopard w/iMac but can with MacBook&PowerBook

This is my 3rd upgrade (iMac) to Leopard. First two were on MacBook & PowerBook and printing on Epson C88 via AEBS works both remote and via USB.. Now iMac does not print to C88 attached to AEBS nor to Epson CX4200 attached by USB to iMac. Tried downloading new drivers from Epson. Even down loaded Gutenprint 5.2.0-beta2 forEpson Inkjet Printers. But not successful in getting printing from iMac. For C88 keep getting "Printer is currently off-line" and no printing. For CX4200 sometimes get printing and sometimes get blank page. Tried to delete printers in Preferences-Print&Fax. After hi lighting each printer got drop down asking if I wanted to delete printer but when OK clicked on printer does not get delete but stays listed in Printers panel. Any suggestions of how to solve this problem. would be welcome.

No problem!
I would recommend repairing the disk permissions on your computer by following this Apple document here. Once this is complete, make sure your Apple updates are complete by following this Apple document here.
Now, I would reset the printing system on your computer. Please follow this Apple document here. If your USB connection isn't responding correctly, then follow this Apple document on USB: Troubleshooting Error Messages. I will be looking forward to hearing from you again!

  • Can I have cable modem connected to iMac but shared with Airport Express?

    I have my internet access to my iMac through a cable modem wired to the Mac. I use the Airport Express to play music from the Mac wirelessly to my stereo. Can I then share the internet access I have on the iMac through the AX without actually connecting the modem to the AX? The wiring is easier to get to the Mac than it would be to get wiring from the cable modem to the Airport Express at the stereo. I want to be able to access the internet wirelessly from a PC laptop that I also have.
    Thanks

    Yes, you can do that. Using the AirPort Utility, you would set the AirPort Express up to create a wireless network giving it whatever name you want. When it gives you an error message that nothing is connected over ethernet, you can click the button to ignore that message and it will perform as you are requesting.
    Note that if your internet connection stops working when you do this, then you may need to change your network port priority so ethernet is higher than AirPort.

  • Can't Print Book from iPhoto or Preview, but Can Print from Adobe Accrobat

    I have spent 2.5 hours on the phone with HP, an am now unsure if the problem is with HP or Apple.
    When I try to print a single page from an iPhoto Book (or a group of pages), I receive an error message on the HP 4650 printer (49.4C02). I saved the book as a PDF and tried to print from Preview with the same results. I then opened the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat and WAS able to print. I am able to print individual photos from iPhoto.
    I searched this discussion board for problems printing to the HP 4650. One suggestion was to use the driver for the HP 4600. I tired that and it produced the same error on the printer.
    Using Adobe Acrobat is a viable work-a-round, but I am curious why I cannot print a book from iPhoto. Any thoughts as to why Adobe Acrobat works and iPhoto and Preview do not?
    Thanks,
    -Dale

    HP has _ a firmware release that addresses this error _ - have you installed it?

  • I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8?

    I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8? Any ideas for a fix?

    iOS devices use AirPrint to connect to a supported printer. OS X will use Bonjour to locate and connect to the same printer.
    With the Epson connected to your wireless router, when you open Print & Scan and click the plus button to add, does the Epson appear in a small box with a heading of Nearby Printers?
    If not and a window appears showing Default, Fax, IP and Windows in the toolbar, do you see the Epson with the Default view selected?

  • Just bought a new iMac, with Lion, for my wife.  When is was wifi with her old iMac on line with it's printer, HP C6200, no problems printing.  Now that it is by itself it does not recognize the C6200...It recognizes my laser hp 1012 and laser hp 6300

    How is the C6200 connected to the iMac, is it via USB or Wi-Fi? If it's via Wi-Fi please make sure it's connected to the router using the printer's Network Wizard. Then click System Preferences - Print & Scan and assuming the iMac is on the same network as the printer, if it is the printer should be seen. If it's not then click the + sign and add the printer.

  • Can I upgrade MB using Leopard from iMac?

    I have a MB with Tiger on it. I recently purchased an iMac with Leopard on it. Can I use the gray discs that came with my iMac to upgrade my MB to Leopard or do I need to buy the retail version?

    You need to purchase the retail version. The disks which came with the iMac are only compatible with and licensed to that computer for the purpose of Mac OS X installation.

    After an automatic update recently, I can only print email (Outlook Express 6) headers but the messages do not print. I now have Firefox 3.6.22.

    Thanks John for the suggestion.  I was finally able to dwonload the newest drivers today when I signed on.  Seems like if you let one day go by Software Update will look at your version of the driver and will finally let you download the newest.  That did not help.  Nothing but communication errors.  It would not even let me load the the new driver as it would no longer ever see the printer.
    Yesterday, for further explanation, I was working at the computer when I heard the printer chime a few times.  When I looked over the green light, which normally signals it is receiving a file to print, was flashing away.  I was doing nothing and I finally had to turn it off.  I spoke with another techie friend who is a big Mac user and has the same printer and he suggested it may be the USB circuit.  This printer has been on for 5 years with a few days off.  We have concluded the circuits are past their useful life and I will soon send the printer to be recycled somewhere.  A new printer is on the way as I need this device.
    Again, thank you for your suggestion and I will mark this solved due to mechanical failure.

  • I had a power mac g4 into which i put 3, 320 gb PATA hard drives in a raid slice config so that it worked as one drive needless to sat that i lost the g4 to a surge but the drives are good. now i have an imac, how can i recover the info off those drives

    i had a power mac g4 into which i put 3, 320 gb PATA hard drives in a raid slice config so that it worked as one drive needless to sat that i lost the g4 to a surge but the drives are good. now i have an imac, how can i recover the info off those drives. can i put the drives in external cases and plug them all in, will the imac see them as a raid slice then  help please

    Before you have another accident:
    Buy a UPS of good quality and sufficient to your needs.
    I would have to assume that the drives were connected to a PCI PATA card, hopefully. Otherwise, well RAID and having drives on the same bus (master and slave).
    And no backup, none at all...
    Get your hands on a G4.
    Data Rescue 3 from Prosoft maybe.
    If they were SATA and running on PCI SATA controller, very popular and common really in G4s, more options would be open.

    How can I print a web page to a hard copy with Adobe? When I print this particular page in the usual way it prints only the text of that page, not the photo that's also part of that page.
