Can't Print since 10.4.8, Epson R2400

My Epson R2400 was working fine with my 24" imac, until 10.4.8 update.
Since then, I have been unable to get the printer to work-- jobs stop immediately after being started. Reinstallation has not helped. anyone else have this problem, or have any suggestions?

Did you Repair Permissions after the update? To do so go to Apps/Utilities/Disk Utility, highlight your boot volume and Repair Permissions.

How can I print two sided? Linux, Epson 845

The "print two sided" box is greyed out. I am running Linux on an Epson Workforce 845. I have no problem on a Windows 7 machine.

IMO, it's always a good idea to refer to
[http://www.openprinting.org/printers/]
and check if you really have the recommended driver installed. (But since you have Mint/Ubuntu/Debian it's as easy as installing epson-inkjet-printer-escpr, providing you any EPSON workforce... driver, directly in your package manager/software centre, then go to printers > install new.)
BTW, Epson drivers are quite good; almost impossible that your Epson doesn't print "two-sided".

Can't print- 27" 2013 iMac-my epson stylus 3800 pro will not print-i updated driver n added printer in syst prefs-When i print the printer queue opens and shows the job as "stopped"-Supply level "information is not available"-maybe part of problem...thx

I can't print from my 27" late 2013 iMac. I am using an epson stylus 3800 pro. I updated driver and added printer in system preferences. When i print the printer queue opens and shows the job as "stopped". Supply level shows "information is not available which maybe part of problem...thank you

The first thing you could try is a reset of the printing system. Please note that this action will remove all printers and scanners from the Printers & Scanners preference pane.
With the reset complete, unplug the Epson USB cable from the Mac for a minute and then reconnect it. This action should result in the printer being added again to the Mac automatically. If this does happen, then see if you can print again.
If the printer is not added again automatically, open Printers & Scanners and click the plus button to add the Epson. Once this is done, then see if you can print again.

Can't print web sites with the epson printer just installed. It wants to print with the old HP printer

I just installed a new printer, an Epson Stylus NX 420. The old printer is A HP photosmart 4580. I can not print with the new printer. If I want to print an e-mail it keep referring to the old printer.Same thing with an article of the web. I am able to print when I use the internet explorer browser.Please tell me what to do to make this work. Thanks

Tech guy is probably correct. We don't usually see reports about trouble with Epson printers, but ID is not the best behaved application when it comes to printing. The usual workaround is to export to PDF and print that instead.

Can't Print Since efax reader was downloaded

For some reason I'm not able to print to my printer since I downloaded efax reader tonight. I've deleted all the efax files I could find. When I try to print in Entourage - it says there isn't enough memory. When I try to print in Word it says there is a problem with the printer. I have an HP All-in-One 7300 series. Everything was fine before I downloaded this....Please help.
Thank you!

Try deleting and readding the printer - that may help.

Can't print since last epson driver update from Software Update

I have a Epson Workforce 600 connected wirelessly which was working just fine until I installed the driver update yesterday which was provided via Software Update. Now, I can print a test page via the Epson Software and my computer can see the printer but when I hit the "print" button on print dialogs, nothing happens. It's very strange, it seems as if the click isn't even recognized.
I've tried printing from multiple programs and it's all the same. Only printing a test page from the Epson software works at this point. Any suggestions?

The probable cause of this is that the /Library/Caches/Epson folder is missing.
There are several threads here about this issue with Epson printers: try deleting the <hard drive>/Library/Printers/EPSON folder and then reinstalling the software through Software Update or from the Apple download site. After installing the software, restart, delete and re-add the printer. That should recreate the /Library/Caches/Epson folder, and you should be able to print.
hope this helps.

I have a 27in. i5 2011 iMac. Since downloading mountain lion, I can't print or scan, using an Epson AIO Artisian 835, plus I can't do upgrades. and of course I lose wi-fi. I think if I could do upgrades, I could fix the print/scan problem. Any ideas?

I've had several problems since downloading Mountain Lion. As with many others, I lose wi-fi on wake-up. I've also lost my ability to print or scan and I can't do upgrades. If I can't fix these issues, can I uninstall Mountain Lion and go back to Lion?

What is wrong with your Mac? You still haven't told us what the problem is. Is the computer still under warranty or Apple Care?
the next time i attempted to use the computer it wasn't fine
What do you mean by "wasn't fine". We can't see your computer so you'll have to describe what your're experiencing in detail without the editorializing.

How can i print from my iPad to Epson SX210

I am trying to find a way to print from my ipad to my Epson SX210 all-in-one printer.
Free Epson iPrint dows not support my printer, and I was just wondering if there is another free app out there that will do the job?
Thanks

I don't know of any free ones, but you can try PrintCentral ($9.99, I think). It's OK, but like all third party print utilities, it's kind of a Rube Goldberg solution. It's not integrated into the iOS the way AirPrint is. If you want to print something, you either have to use its built-in email and web-browser (which suck), or use yet another program, like DropBox, as a go-between.
For the record, in my case I consider it $9.99 wasted. I used it once to prove it worked and haven't touched it since. If I need to print something, it's usually easier to mail it to myself or save it to DropBox, then print it from the computer sitting next to my printer.

SL can't print over the network to Epson AcuLaser CX11NF

I create a bonjour print queue in snow leopard to the Epson AcuLaser CX11NF and it fails to print with with Yellow Triangle Unable to connect ot printer; will try in 30 seconds
Then I get the following error
/Library/Printers/EPSON/LaserPrinter/GD2/filter/pdftoescpage.app/Contents/MacOS/ pdftoescpage failed
On the same network with another MAC running OS X 10.5.x it an print no trouble. Also if I connect to the 10.5.x shared printer I can print from SL.
I just updated to 10.6.1 and it didn't fix a thing.
I can print if I directly connect via a USB cable to the printer.
Why is printing so broken in SL, did they ship it before they completed development and testing ?

This may or may not be of help to Snow Leopard users, but printing to my CX11NF via the USB port on my Airport Extreme (the first n version, not the current one) is problematic but workable from both my Dual G5 and my wife's 15 inch MacBook Pro (late 2008), both running Leopard. There were no issues with Tiger, but Leopard introduced an incompatibility with Epson Status Monitor3. ESM3 crashes or freezes after any print job (or queue of print jobs), and this usually results in having to restart either the Mac or the Airport Extreme. I've found that manually quitting the Epson AL-CX11 driver, then quitting or, more often, force quitting the ESM3 after a print job allows subsequent printing without having to restart. (I do this using Dock menus.) The workaround isn't 100 percent successful, but it comes reasonably close. As this printer has been discontinued for a couple years now, Epson is extremely unlikely to update drivers for it. So far, I'm reluctant to upgrade my wife's MBP to Snow Leopard, as there's no way to know in advance if it will defeat the workaround. If anyone using Snow Leopard has success printing through an Airport Extreme's USB port to the CX11NF, please post it here.

Can't print to CD/DVD on Epson Artisan 810

I'm trying to print to the CD/DVD tray on the Epson Artisan 810. The option is greyed out (disabled) on the dialogue box, and I've found no help on the internet.
I'm connected via Wi-Fi, have installed the requisite Epson & OSX drivers, and can print and scan without issue.
Anyone have any success printing to CD/DVD? Is there something I'm missing?

I am glad that it works. I haven't tried it yet but I noticed that the program got installed when I installed my printer last week and I figured that it was the one

Laptops Can't Print Since Leopard

I have 2 Airport Extreme N's in my network. One is a router and the other is a wired bridge. Since Leopard, we are having a lot of trouble keeping connections to our networked printers. If I unplug my 2 airport extremes and plug them back in, I can see and connect to my network printers. However, the next time I want to print I get a message that I should check my printer connections. At this point, if I open Airport Utility and scan, I can see no airports at all, even though the MacBook Pro that I am on is currently connected to the airport and able to get to the internet. So I run around and unplug the airports and then I can delete and re-add my network printers.
I am so sick of running around and unplugging my airports that I want to scream. Has anyone else seen this problem? Are there any solutions out there?

Update: I did a lot of reading and found that Appletalk is no more. I got a parallel to USB adaptor and connected the HP laserjet printer that way and it works fine. No more ethernet connection.
On my HP PSC 1350, I discovered since the OS up grade, I could not scan and the printer utility will not function. The only software HP has for this printer for Snow Leopard is PRINT ONLY. I did find software on Apple's site which I believe is for OS 10.7 and that works (sort of), Utility still won't work and the scan function is cumbersome to operate. It is disappointing that Apple and HP cannot be more in concert concerning up grades and keeping the ability to operate existing equipment. My next printer will be a Brother next time I need ink cartridges!!

How can I print from Firefox using my Epson Workforce 610 printer?

I call technical support at Epson regarding my Workforce 610 printer because I'd tried to print out an e-mail using my Mozilla FireFox web browser. During the conversation with Epson technical support I learned that my printer does in fact work and wasn't have any connection issues that prevented me from printing. I tried to print 4 times 2 times out of notepad and then Word, then I tried to print my e-mail 2 times using the Mozilla FireFox web browser and neither time was I able to print using Mozilla FireFox's web browser. The technical support rep then suggested I speak to technical support for Mozilla FireFox because she thought there might be a connectivity issue between Mozilla FireFox's web browser and my Epson printer that keeps it from print documents from the web browser.

In Firefox -
File > Print or {Ctrl + P} = is that Epson printer selected in the Printer - Name dialog?

Can't Print to Windows ME shared Epson CX 5000 printer

When I try Windows printing I get "Workgroup" or "Network Neighborhood," neither of which find my MSHOME network or my printer. If I use IP printing and I get "connecting," but then get "busy" returned to me.

I have the same setup but with a Canon MX850. This did not fix my problem.

Crop to the print size before pringing

Epson R2400 prints from Apterture and CS2 are VERY close.

Using the same NEF file that Frank donated, I printed an untouched(cropping only) print from Aperture to my Epson R2400 on premium lustre paper.
I took the white balance temp(4906 K) and tint(-14) from the HUD and applied these into Bridge(temp/tint for the same NEF), with default values for everything else default(exposure:0, shadows:5, brightness:40, contrast:+25, saturation:0, sharpening:25), and color space sRGBIEC61955-1, then opened it in CS2 and printed it.
NOTE: I am using PowerRIP-X V7.2 from iProof Systems for my print driver, it is installed like a printer and shows up as a printer on the selection list. IMHO, the $200 I spent on the R2400 RIP was money well spent. Between the RIP and the calibrated monitor, my color matching from screen to print is dead on, regardless of the paper type.. no more wasted prints and frustration. They also sell a RIP for the Epson 4800.
The prints from both are very, very, close. I have been shooting digital since 1997 and therefore do not own a scanner, so this is my visual review. Although I might shoot em tomorrow with my D2X on a tripod while lighting with a 47" Octabox... we'll see.
The CS2 print has a very slight bit more saturation of the skin tones(reddish) than Aperture. The shirt in the Aperture print is a very slight bit darker than the CS2 print.
If you look very closely and angle the light just right you can see a slight bit of the earlier mentioned blocking in the shadow on the subjects left shoulder.
I suspect the slight darkening of the shirt color may be due to the same reason for the aforementioned blocking in the shadow areas.
There is no appreciable difference in print quality.
I calibrate my 20" Cinema Display with a Spyder2PRO device and these slight differences are seen on screen as well, therefore on hardware calibrated displays the following screen capture should represent the differences..(I have no idea what this will look like on a windoze monitor!)
To see this full res in Safari, right click and select 'Open Image in New Window'

There seems to be two issues here. For output, using
the same output profile, Aperture and Photoshop
should be pretty close however, keep in mind that
unless you set Photoshop to use the Apple CMM (not
ACE) there could be a tiny bit of difference.
Hmmm.
I'm trying to remember what Bruce Fraser said about CMM choice the last time I attended on of his lectures. If I have it correctly he had reservations about all of them but the Adobe CMM was the best of the lot.
This was over a year ago so conditions may have changed and my memory may be faulty....
But I imagine that their might be negative consequences to using two different CMMs to process your data. Photoshop allows you a choice of CMM's, which is consistent with an application "designed from the ground up for professional photographers."
Aperture limits many choices, both basic and esoteric.
