Cannot print on Epson Workforce 845

Running 10.7.5 on MacBook. Home network is Airport Extreme. Printer working just fine until today and now for no apparent reason doesn't print from the Mac. It will print from my iPhone and iPad so the issue isn't the network or the printer.
I have rebooted everything there is to reboot, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Epson drivers, I have tried using the network, I have tried using the USB cable. It still scans using ImageCapture just fine. It also recognizes the printer, can tell ink levels etc etc etc
After the above is on the screen for ages this error message will eventually show up
Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpII.app/Contents/MacOS/r astertoescpII failed
I am having to save documents to dropbox, download from dropbox to my iPhone and print from my iPhone. Help!!
Thanks in advance for any and all efforts.

Try deleting the print queue ...
Open System Preferences > Print & Scan > Print
Click: Open Print Queue
Delete all jobs
Restart your Mac, turn off the printer, then turn it back on.
If that didn't help, delete the printer in the System Preferences > Print window by clicking - (minus)
Then go to the Epson site and download fresh drivers for the Epson Workforce845
Then back to System Preferences > Print. Click + to add the printer again.
Beyond that, try the manual > Epson WorkForce 845, Documents & Manuals - Technical Support - Epson America, Inc.

HT4356 Am at my wit's end trying to print to epson workforce 845

I am at my wits's end trying to print my iPad 2 to an epson workforce 845. Have looked on Epson, Apple, been 3 hours on it, downloaded epson's print utility, but it nothing I do seems to work, trying also to set up with my MacBook Pro for wireless. It worked for awhile and quit. But my iPad has never worked. It works with ease on my HP at home, but not my Epson. get message: no AirPrint found. Geez alou, someone help me before I shoot myself (only joking about shooting myself)

What make and model router do you have?
Make sure they are on the same wifi network. If they are, you'll likely have success turning off the router, the printer, and the iOS device and powering them back on.

Epson Workforce 845 will not print after IPad software upgraded

All worked well before I upgraded my Ipad2 software yesterday. No longer prints. Message when I press print says it is searching for an AirPrint printed, and finds none on my network. Nothing has changed except the software upgrade. hat must I do?

Thanks...other computers on the wireless network continue to work well. The Epson Workforce 845 is an approved printer on AirPrint. Trying to find a printer setup screen on the iPad without success. When I bought the new wireless printer, it worked right out of the box with the iPad.
I am tempted to restore the software to the original factory settings through iTunes but fear losing everything that has been added since I got it. A disclaimer on iTunes says I can back all up, and later reinstall after I reset to original factory settings, but I am skeptical. Any experience in this area?

Can't install printer driver for Epson Workforce 845 on Lion

I can't seem install the printer driver for the Epson Workforce 845 on my MacBookPro running OS 7.2.
I installed the software from Epson but the printer installer can't find it.

I just finished installing an Epson Workforce 545 on Lion. This info is valid as of early March 2012. The trick seems to be this: DON'T install using the CD that comes with the printer. DON'T download the driver from Epson.
First do an Apple Software Update to make sure the machine is up-to-date. Then simply open the Printer & Scan preferences and add the Epson printer. It will download the driver directly from Apple and you will be good to go. If you do install the bad drivers from Epson, you have to remove the /Library/Printers/EPSON folder and also anything EPSON in the Cache folder, then start over.

Can't scan from epson workforce 845

I can't scan documents from my epson workforce 845 printer. I use a wireless home network to connect to printer. Printing works fine, but epson software shows communication error when I try to scan.

Scanning drivers over wireless typically aren't as good as printer drivers themselves. Try hooking it up directly via USB and see if it works that way. Have a look at my FAQ* to see if any open source drivers might work better.

Epson workforce 845 suddenly not working wirelessly, help!

I've had an iMac for three yrs., also bought an Epson Workforce 845 at the same time. Both have worked seamlessly. I believe that after the most recent automatic computer update, is when my printer stopped working wirelessly. I can print from my iPad and iPhone, but not from my iMac. I've been on the phone with Epson three times, they can't figure it out. My husband's mac mini won't print now either. Any suggestions as to what I can do to get my printer to print wirelessly again???? HELP!! So frustrated.

Two-sided printing with Epson Workforce 630

I bought a new iMac a few months ago and got the Epson WorkForce 630 printer at the same time. However, I can't figure out how to do duplex (two-sided) printing. I've searched around, and it looks like this feature may not be supported for the Mac. Now, why would Apple sell a printer through their website that doesn't support Mac? This seems like a basic feature that all printers should have.
Does anyone know a work-around? The "two-sided" selection is grayed out for me.
Thanks!

Thanks! Unfortunately, on the Epson site, it says, "
Q:
Is manual duplex (double-sided) printing supported in Mac OS X with my product?
A:
No. This feature is supported in Windows only."
I really don't know why Apple would sell a printer through their stores that doesn't support all features in their OS. I might end up going back to my older printer.

Booklet Printing on Epson Workforce 840

I recently bought an Epson Workforce 840. Booklet printing is an important part of what I do and read that the workforce could handle it. However, it appears booklet printing isn't supported by the Mac drivers. Is this true or am I missing something?

Cannot print to Epson photo r2400 w/airport

I have a macbook pro and cannot print to an r2400. The priinter workds with my g4 powerbook and prior to an airport firmware update. I get a looking for printer message for several minutes and then I get a message that says: " Communication error" at times it gives you code" (-70012)" The printer does work when directl connected to the printer
Help

I'm so embarrassed. The reason I was having trouble printing is because I did not install the latest print driver from Epson for Mountain Lion 10.8.1. I thought of this in the shower and tried it and now everything is fine.
I hope I didn't send anybody on a wild goose chase.

Hi
1. Click on the Apple logo at the top left corner of the screen and select System Preferences.
2. Click on Printers and Scanners pane.
3. You need to highlight your printer on the left hand side and remove it from the list by clicking on little "-" button
4. Click on little "+" button and add it back.
You may also try to reset printer settings

Trouble printing to Epson Workforce 435 via airport express network

We have an Epson Workforce 435 printer that connects wirelessly to our home network via Airport Express. After we switched to AT&T, we could no longer print from our Windows 7 PC connected to the network via Airport as well. Our Macbook air works just fine. The printer's network status sheet says it is connected, but it's like our computer can't find it on the network. Can't ping the printer's IP address either.

Okay, I have checked the settings on the AX - it is set up to be 802.11b/g compatible, so that doesn't appear to be the problem.
I had a friend come over with her macbook - she was able to detect the wireless network, but wasn't able to connect to it, even when I gave her the password. Does this help diagnose the problem?
Here is additional information about how the AX is currently configured:
In the Airport tab in AirPort Utility:
Wireless Mode: Create a wireless network
Radio Mode: 802.11b (802.11b/g compatible)
Channel: 1
Wireless security: WEP
MAC Address Access Control: Not Enabled
In the Internet tab in Airport Utility:
Connect using: Ethernet
Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
Ethernet WAN port: Automatic
Connection sharing: Off (Bridge mode)
I have tried turning wireless security off, but that didn't help the problem. I have also tried turning MAC Address Access Control to Timed Access, inputted the MAC address of the printer, and gave it permission to access the network all day, everyday, but this didn't work either. I have looked at changing the connection sharing settings, but I don't really understand what I'm doing here, so I am reluctant to mess with things much. This seems like the most promising potential solution?
Thanks!

Cannot print on workforce630 ?

It is not an Airprint compatible printer.
You can see if Epson has an app or try a 3rd party application such as Print N Share or Printopia.

Help!! Cannot print to Epson 4900 using PS-CS4 on Mac 10.8.4?

My new MacBookPro using Photoshop CS4 prints just fine to my Epson 2400 and 1900 however when using my new 4900 I click "print" and the printer icon bounces once in the dock and then disappears. The printer then gyrates and makes noise but puts out no image. I can print documents and images from Preview and Pages and the web on the 4900 so I know the printer can print. I have reloaded CS4 several times from my disc and the Epson driver several times to no avail. The Epson tech guy says what appears obvious, that the printer is working fine but that PS cannot communicate with the 4900. Has any one had this experience and were you able to solve the problem?

You're having a problem with the printer driver.
Deleting and reinstalling the printer in the OS controls may help.
Otherwise you need to contact Epson.
Photoshop does not communicate with the printer, ever.
The driver code communicate with the printer.
Photoshop communicates with the OS, and the OS communicates with the driver.
And you're having a problem with the driver.
