Can't print on new epson R3000 printer from PE 11 on Mac running 10.10.1. Spent hour with Epson tech support. worked fine last week with Epson R2880 and same OS.

All drivers were updated. Printing works fine with other software.

Still not printing.
In the meantime have done the following: --
1. Launched terminal, typed sudo chmod a+x /usr/libexec/cups/backend/*, followed with pw when prompted, then quit terminal.
Tested printer: no go. Printer setting shows "In use, last used". Printer dialog says "waiting for printer to become available".
2. Launched terminal, typed ls -l /usr/libexec/cups/backend.
This is the list:

  • Can i get help on how I can successfully install the new google voice video chat software. I keep having an install error. My google voice phone always worked until a week ago when suddenly google would not let me call out from any browser

    Can i get help on how I can successfully install the new google voice video chat software. I keep having an install error. My google voice phone always worked until a week ago when suddenly google would not let me call out from any browser until I installed their new google voice and video chat (made by vidyo) software. I was told by genius bar to install Yosemite, which I did. But that did not solve the problem. I removed macKeeper, as well, since a techie friend told me that could be the cause. Nothing so far has worked.  When the problem first happened, it seemed to only happen in Chrome. Google voice calling out worked fine in safari, for about a day or so. Now I cannot call out from any browser. I can, however receive calls, and make calls within the video hangout.
    I can be contacted directly if questions at gary at couplewise dot followed by the usual extensin

    You can only suspend service for 3 months at a time (with or without payment) and only twice a year.

  • Suddenly I can't burn any tunes to disc.  I receive an error report - 4280.  What's the problem?  It all worked fine last week.

    Suddenly I can't burn any turnes to disc.  I receive an error report - 4280.  What's the problem?  It was all fine last week.

    Additional information: 
    -also ran "Repair" with new download of iTunes
    -am using the same spindle of CDs that worked perfectly a month ago.  Tried another brand also to be safe.  None worked.
    -ran CD/DVD diagnostics within iTunes with Apple Care - no issues apparent
    -also tried write-speed 20X on advice of Apple Care (don't know why they thought 20X would be the magic number after the other 3 I tried didn't work)
    -tried running itunes in another user account on the computer - same problem, same error code
    -Apple suggested it was a copyright issue.  I can't even burn music that I created/recorded myself, so that doesn't make sense.
    -They thought maybe Quicktime wasn't installed properly, so we checked a film in Windows Media - it played, meaning Quicktime was fine apparently. 
    Solution:
    Unclicked CD text option & Sound Check, ran burn from the File drop down menu (max speed) on a Philips CD-R and it worked!  Had been right clicking the playlist name and selecting Burn option from there.  That being said, it did not work on 2 other brands prior, with same settings.  Not sure why.  Just happy it's working again. Is it a brand issue?

  • I can't print from iPhoto on my new Epson XP820 printer.  Any suggestions?

    I can't print from iPhoto on my new Epson XP820 printer.  I can print from other applications, like Word or Mail.  Any suggestions?

    Did you check software update or App Store to see if the printer is among
    those Epson models who may have an update download available now?
    Of course, some of these printers, even though wi-fi, may require the wire
    to set them up for first-use, to be identified. Both my Epsons appear twice,
    for wi-fi and again with USB. So I named each appearance, different. So it
    is possible to tell in more than one way, which setup that was selected. A few
    features do not correctly work in instances where drivers differ.
    The latest Epson update helped my newer computer connect to oldest Epson.
    Even though a 1.3GB huge Epson drivers file did not help, & OS X didn't see it.
    Hopefully the they included an adequate quick-setup guide, though that may
    have been for Mavericks, etc. Yet your iPhoto issue may be something else.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Although you have posted in a Mavericks forum, implying that you have a Mac computer, your profile doesn't say that you have one. Printer Pro requires the printer to be connected to a Mac.

  • New printer purchase and can't print from classic 9 partitioned side of HD

    I recently purchased an Epson RX595 printer. After installation I found that I can only print from the OS X - 10.3.9 (Panther) partitioned side. (This is the original HD so it is not all that big.) I cannot print anything on the Classic 9 partition. My question is can I transfer my Microsoft Office 98 from Classic 9 to the OS X, if so, how do I do that? I tried simply click and drag and it opens from the OS X but the menu bar tells me it is really opening from Classic 9 and therefore will not print. My G4 is the first one Apple made (purchased in 1999). The processor is 450 MHz and I have 640 MB SDRAM. I was told by the support person at Epson that OS X is the "dominant" side of the HD which is fine. I just need to know how to get my applications on Classic 9 to the OS X. I would appreciate any help you can give me.

    Hi,
    Welcome to the Discussions.
    That printer is only compatible with OS X (Jaguar or later) and the oldest version of Word compatible with OS X is Office 2000.
    NeoOffice (freeware/opensource) is a Mac suite of applications compatible with Microsoft Office apps. Download and install it and you should be able to open and print Word .docs on the OS X side of your hard drive.

  • Can i print from my ipad2 to an epson printer connected to time machine.?

    can i print from my ipad2 to an epson printer which is connected to my time machine.?

    Does that printer support wireless printing?  If so, then try it that way using the "Epson iPrint" app.  From my experience, don't expect to be able to print every type of thing you'd want to.

    Can't print from Intel Mac w/Snow Leopard to HP 2600.  Upgraded from OS 10.4 and printer showed on printer list along with an Epson scanner. but continually shows printer as offline.  I finally deleted the HP Color Laserjet 2600n from the printer list.  When I attempted to re-install it, it doesn't find the printer at all.  I haven't attempted to use the scanner.  I also went to HP and downloaded the driver, no luck.  I've restarted the computer multiple times, tried it with the printer on, and printer off, as well as pulled the usb cable in and out both ends.  No error message on the printer display and it gpes through normal warmup until it shows the green light.  I run software update and it shows no updates needed.  Help!

    When you press print the first window is pretty basic.
    When you select print on that the next window should have an advanced option.
    Click that and see if any of the options in the 3rd dropdown box allow you to specify the 'paper tray'.
    AC "
    In this new windaow, click "advanced", go to "paper type/quality" and choose " best" and a photo paper. Then you will be able to choose a paper source (photo tray).
    Once you have these settings, under presets do "save as", and you can choose the preset instead of going to advanced.
    If you have the latest software and drivers downloaded from HP, this will work.

  • How Can I Print from my Microsoft Surface Running Windows 8 RT?

    How Can I Print from my Microsoft Surface Running Windows 8 RT?
    Most new wireless printers won’t have a problem printing from the Microsoft Surface with Windows 8 RT.  All you should have to do for these printers is tell them to print and they will.  Older wireless, Ethernet, and USB printers might not have an officially supported driver in Windows 8 RT, but there is a way to get the printers working.  There are different requirements depending on how the printer is being connected to the Surface. 
    Note:  All steps below are only for PhotoSmart, OfficeJet, DeskJet, and other HP Inkjet printers.  These steps are not for Laserjet printers or printers from other manufacturers.  These steps may not work for all Inkjet printers.  If these steps don’t work, try different drivers from the list until you find one that will work (you’ll understand what I mean once you follow the steps below).  If none of the drivers work, your printer will not work with the Surface.
    For networked printers (wireless or Ethernet), all you need is either the Surface keyboard, or an external USB keyboard to connect to the Surface.  This just makes anything you have to type easier to type.  You will also need to have the Surface and the printer connected to the same network. 
    Starting from the right edge, swipe your finger left on the Surface screen to bring up the Charms bar.
    Touch Search.
    Below the Search Box, touch Settings.
    In the search Box, type Devices and Printers.
    Touch Devices and Printers.
    Touch Add a Printer.
    Touch “My printer is not listed”.
    Select the TCP/IP option and touch Next.
    Enter the printer’s IP address and touch Next.  Note:  You can get this from the printer’s Network Configuration Page, or from your router’s DHCP list.
    The Surface will locate the printer and try to install it.  The install will fail and the Surface will ask you what you want to do, search the internet for the driver, or manually install the driver.  Choose to install the driver yourself.
    Touch “I want to choose from a list of drivers”.
    If no drivers appear in the list, make sure the box next to “Show compatible drivers” is not checked.
    Choose HP from the Manufacture list.
    Choose DeskJet PCL 3 Class Driver from the Drivers list.  If that driver doesn't work, try using the Photosmart PCL3 driver, or the Officejet PCL 3 driver.  (Thank you JonW for letting me know about these other alternates. )
    Touch Next.
    Touch Finish.
    Test printing.
    For USB connected printers, you will need a USB cord to attach the printer to the computer.
    Connect the printer to the computer via USB.
    Windows will try to find the drivers but will not be able to.
    Here Windows may ask you if you want to choose the driver to install.  If it does skip to step 14 below.
    Starting from the right edge, swipe your finger left on the Surface screen to bring up the Charms bar.
    Touch Search.
    Under the Search box, touch Settings.
    In the Search box, type Device Manager.
    Touch Device Manager.
    Touch View and select Show Hidden.
    Search for the printer in the Device Manager.  It should be under Other Devices with a yellow caution sign beside it.
    Select the printer from the list.
    Touch Action.
    Touch Update Driver, or Install whichever one it displays.
    The Surface will ask you what you want to do, search the internet for the driver, or manually install the driver.  Choose to install the driver yourself.
    Touch “I want to choose from a list of drivers”.
    If no drivers appear in the list, make sure the box next to “Show compatible drivers” is not checked.
    Choose HP from the Manufacture list.
    Choose DeskJet PCL 3 Class Driver from the Drivers list.  If that driver doesn't work, try using the Photosmart PCL3 driver, or the Officejet PCL 3 driver.  (Thank you JonW for letting me know about these other alternates. )

  • How can I print from my iPad 2 using an HP Artisan 810 printer.

    How can I print from the iPad 2 using an Epson Artisan 810 printer.

    You said HP in your post title and Epson in your body text, but I think it is actually an Epson Artisan 810.
    If that's right, then the free Epson iPrint app should work for you - it lists your printer as one that it supports: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epson-iprint/id326876192?mt=8

  • Can't print from iTunes nor Safari

    Hi
    I have a printing issue, that I simply can't solve by myself, so I need some advice!
    The problem is that I can't print from Safari nor iTunes and maybe other applications aswell, but I can print from Pages without any problems at all!
    *In iTunes*
    Today I told a friend about a playlist that I have made in iTunes and he wanted to see it, so I decided to print it to him as a PDF-file. I clicked "Print" in the File menu, and the dialog where you choose the kind of print and theme you want showed up as expected. I chose the options I wanted and clicked the "Print" button and a new dialog showed up (possibly the one to choose whether you want it as print or PDF) but it disappeared instantly! I tried a second time, but the same thing happened, I barely got to see the dialog before it closed by itself.
    *In Safari*
    When I try to print an article e.g., the drop down printing window appears, but after trying to save the print as PDF, nothing happens and the drop down windows will not go away, so I have to force quit Safari to visit another website.
    *In Pages*
    I click "Print" and it prints as I want. It seems that there is no trouble in Pages.
    I have tried deleting the "com.apple.print"-files in ~/Library/Preferences and it had a small effect. The dialog in iTunes was visible in more than a second before it disappeared, but the next time I tried, it disappeared instantly again.
    I have also tried installing all the printer drivers on the Snow Leopard DVD, but also without any luck.
    And yep, I have googled for more than an hour on this issue and found no answer.
    +My software:+
    +Mac OS 10.6.3+
    +iTunes 9.1.1+
    +Safari 5.0+
    +Pages '09 v. 4.0.3+
    If some of you have suggestions that can solve my problem, please help me!

    I found out that I don't need to Force Quit Safari, and I can actually use Safari after attempting printing, but with this dialog box always on top! http://cl.ly/4983702c22817d87f6a7
    Thank you for the screen shot. Expanding the dialog probably wouldn't help, but it might be worth a quick try. And "12" is the fake printer?
    John Blanchard1 wrote:
    There should be something somewhere in Console, especially if you are force quitting Safari.
    Even though you don't need a printer to create PDFs, you can try adding a "fake" IPP printer in AddPrinter using the Generic PPD to see if that makes a difference.
    You could also try launching Safari from Terminal:
    /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/./Safari
    and then see if Terminal gives any indication of where Safari is stalling.
    The Console tells me this, which is the only Safari-related: http://cl.ly/6b1dd724be75085d2755
    That's probably what's killing the dialog - the key is most likely related to the print dialog UI.
    I really appreciate your helpfulness, though it hasn't helped me further. Right now, I'm thinking about deleting the entire HD and re-install Snow Leopard, because I have some issues with Mail as well.
    I am happy to try to help, and it's all guesswork since I can't reproduce the issue here. And I am sorry it has not helped. Reinstalling is a last resort, but it sounds like the best plan now, especially since you are having issues with other applications.
    Sorry again not to have been able to help.
