CD printer driver for Epson Stylus Photo R265

Just bought an Intel iMac 20" together with a Epson Stylus photo R265. It should print CD's and DVD's but, every time I try to print these, it tells me that the CD printer driver has not been installed.
After reinstalling the drivers from the cd which came together with the printer it still didn't print CD's. Also installing the drivers from the Epson website didn't do the job.
After discussing this problem with people from the Epson helpdesk, they answered that the CD printing feature only works on powermacs and that Rosetta should do the trick on Intel based Macs. Knowing that Rosetta operates automatically in OS 10.4.8, this answer was unsatisfying.
I now consider to buy a Canon printer but I am not sure if these printers (cd printer drivers) have the same problem with Intel based Macs.
Does anyone know a proper solution?

  • Printer Driver for Epson Stylus R800 Printer Included with OS X 5 Leopard

    How many faulty drivers may there be included with OS X 5 Leopard?
    After installing OS X 5 Leopard I found that when using my Epson Stylus PHOTO R800 printer photograph prints and ordinary lettering were extremely feint and unusable.
    From the list of printers installed with OS X 5, as given in Apple "K"base Documents, I checked the version number of the driver for the Stylus Photo R800 and it was given as "SPR800 3.09 app"
    I next checked the latest driver specified by Epson on their website---it too was given as
    "SPR800 3.09 app".
    Despite this information I downloaded the "SPR800 3.09 app" from Epson and installed it and the problem was solved.
    I am writing this to inform others that despite the driver included with OS X 5 being specified as
    "SPR800 3.09 3.09" it certainly is not!!!
    The only answer is to use the latest version provided on the Epson website.

    Dear scb
    Many thanks for taking the time to reply to my post, you are so right in your remarks.
    Although I've been on Macs for around 25 years I hadn't come across something as blatant as this before---maybe I've been lucky!
    Your comment regarding the avoidance of software included with the product is very relevant particularly at the present time, so soon after the release of OS X 5 Leopard. There must be thousands of printers and the like which are being sold right now with software applicable to OS X 4 Tiger included with them.

  • Help! Trying to re-install Driver for Epson Stylus Photo R300

    My computer recently crashed and I had to do a system re-install. My system then updated to OS 10.4.8, I am on a 1.67 Power PC G4 Powerbook.
    After re-installing everything my Epson Stylus Photo R300 is not working. I could not find the original disk so I went to the website and downloaded the installer which extracted into "epson11601.sea" . When I go to run this file the computer launches a program called Automator.
    Pleaes help. I need to print some DVD's for work and I can't do this until I re-install the Epson Drivers, etc.
    Thanks -Erik

    installer which extracted into "epson11601.sea" .
    When I go to run this file the computer launches a
    program called Automator.
    This is a problem with Stuffit Expander 11. Luckily the .sea file is still able to be used. Highlight the epson11601.sea file and do a GetInof (command-I) for it. There will be a section on what application to use to open the file. Change the application to "epson11601.sea". The .sea extension indicates that it is a Self Extracting Archive. It is indeed a small application that does the work of extracting the files in the archive.

  • Printer Driver. EPSON Stylus Photo 1280

    Hi, I'm just setting up my printer for use on my MacBook Pro. I initially installed the Printer driver provided by EPSON and had the driver working fine. Afterwards, I setup a home network and am currently accessing the printer through my network. The printer is hooked up to my desktop, which is running XP Pro.
    Now when I try to access my printer through the network, on my MacBook, which i'm running Mac OS X, 10.5.6, I can print, but it is using the OS X software, and I cannot figure out how to the EPSON driver as the driver allows me to use all the quality settings. If anyone can provide any help to me on this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Former Windows users are often dismayed to find out that print drivers on OS X aren't like on Windows. Apple has allowed printer manufacturers to continue using legacy print methods (Carbon) - where whoever writes the driver gets to choose exactly which comm protocol(s) are supported. Your Epson print driver is for USB connection only. Apple has included GutenPrint drivers (new CUPS drivers that can use any comm protocol) to help us print via the CUPS network protocols like Windows Printing. But the Gutenprint drivers aren't provided by Epson and don't have the same options. You might want to try updating your Gutenprint drivers - maybe the newer ones have better option choices.

  • Belkin Print Server support for Epson Stylus photo R200

    I have just installed a Belkin Wirless G adsl modem router, which works very well and I very satisfied with it. Along with this I purchased a Belkin Print server F1UP0001uk to drive my Epson stylus photo R200. While I can see my Print server and ping it satisfactoraly and it can see my printer. I can't get it to print.
    Belkin tell me that I have to change the CUPS port from 515 to 9100 for print server port1 or 9101 for port2 on each machine I want to connect from.
    How do I do this?
    G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    What they are describing is the HP Jetdirect protocol on OS X, called raw/port 9100 printing on Windows. To use port 9100, in Printer Setup, select IP printer > HP JetDirect and it will work (9100 is the default port number). To use port 9101 requires the advanced method. In Printer Setup, after you click ADD, hold down the option key while clicking More Printers (you may need to pause a bit before the More Printers, because OS X is searching for Bonjour printers). At the bottom of the new menu, select Advanced, then select Appsocket/HP Jetdirect. Name it. Fill in the URI like:
    socket://[IPofserver]:9101

  • Print quality on Epson Stylus Photo R800

    Hi...
    I'm using Lightroom 3.6 and an Epson Stylus Photo R800. This printer is capable of printing very high quality pictures, as I know by using it for almost 5 years.
    I have bought Lightroom about 6 month ago. I have tried anything I can think off to get those fabulus pictures out of my Epson printer. I alterd color managment settings, changed print resolutions, downloaded new printerdriver, ... Nothing works. Print quality when printing from Lightroom is very poor. Bad colors (dark), stripes over the whole image, it looks like nothing realy.
    One of the things that I noticed is that the maximum resolution for printing in LR is 720 ppi. My Epson is capable of 1550 ppi.
    I see a lot of discussion going about print quality with lightroom... I think however this is a more basic problem. My print qualiti is realy very very bad...
    Does anyone have similar problems or (even better) a hint to a solution?
    Note,
    When I export a picture to .jpg format (I shoot in RAW only), and print this directly from Windows, I do get the perfect picture a was used to... I cannot believe that Lightroom is unable to do the same.
    Thanks!
    Erik.

  • Problem using Print CD on Epson Stylus Photo RX700

    I recently installed OS 10.5.1 (leopard) on my iMac (intel core duo) and my Epson Stylus Photo RX700 all-in-one printer appears to be working okay, except when I try to use the Print CD application, I get a message "Epson printer driver dealing with CD printing is not installed". I tried downloading updates from the epson.com site ( 1- Epson Easy Print v3.1bA for intel, 2- TWAIN Driver & Epson Scan Utility v3.02A, 3- Printer Driver v3.0aAS), but I still get the same message. Any suggestions? -Don

    You need to add the Epson drivers from the OS X Install disk. Below is what Epson sent me. Note that when you re-add the Printers, there no longer is a Printer Set Up Utility, go into Preferences > Print & Fax and do it from there. Worked for me. Good Luck.
    REMOVE FILES
    1.  Double click on the MAC HARD DRIVE.
    2.  Double click on the LIBRARY folder.
    3.  Double click on the PRINTERS folder.
    4.  Drag the EPSON folder to the trash can.
    5.  Close any open windows.
    6.  Double click on the MAC HARD DRIVE.
    7.  Double click on the LIBRARY folder.
    8.  Double click on the RECEIPTS folder.
    9.  Delete any EPSON receipts.
    10. Close all open windows and restart your computer.
    REINSTALL THE EPSON DRIVER PACKAGE
    1. Insert your Mac OS X 10.4 Install disc. Open CD when it appears on the
    desktop.
    2. Find and double-click on the Optional Installs.mpkg.
    3. After the installer opens, choose the following custom install options:
      -Check PRINTER DRIVERS and use arrow next to this entry to expand this
    category.
      -Check EPSON below the PRINTER DRIVERS heading. (You do not need to
    install other manufacturer's packages.)
    4. Click INSTALL (or UPGRADE) and follow prompts to reinstall the resident
    Epson printer driver package. Remove the OS CD and then restart the
    computer after installation is complete.
    READD THE PRINTER
    1. Go into HD > Applications > Utilities and open the Printer Setup
    Utility. The PRINTER LIST window appears.
    2. Highlight and delete any existing references to your Epson printer. (If
    you want to be thorough and do not have any other printers on the Mac,
    choose PRINTER SETUP UTILITY from the top of the screen and RESET PRINTING
    SYSTEM. Confirm resetting the system. This clears any existing printer
    entries and queues. If you have other printers on the Mac and use this
    reset, you will need to readd them later.)
    3. Turn the printer OFF and back ON to make the Mac redetect it and add it
    to the list automatically. (Do not change the PRINT USING field. Selecting
    EPSON here would add a GIMP Print driver which does not support all of the
    functions of the resident Epson driver. Epson does not support or recommend
    these third party drivers.)
    4. If you have other printers on the list, make the Epson entry the
    default.
    5. Close the Printer Setup Utility and try a test print from any OS X-based
    application.
    *NOTE: If the printer does not show up on the list, it may mean a lack of
    detection. Ensure the printer is online (no red error lights) and connected
    directly to the Mac. Try moving the cable end to other USB ports, if need
    be. If you have not done so already, you can also try resetting the Printer
    Setup Utility, as described above.
    If you are working with a printer model which supports borderless and/or
    roll paper printing options, you will be able to select these options in
    the program you are printing from as you set up your print job.
    1. Once you have an image or file open, go to File > Page Setup.
    2. For FORMAT FOR select the Epson printer name (rather than ANY PRINTER)
    3. Select the appropriate Paper Size. If your printer supports different
    layout features, each paper size will have several different options. For
    example, the 4x6 paper size will have an arrow pointing right which offers
    choices of 4x6 Borderless, 4x6 Standard-Minimize Margins, etc. Pick the
    paper type plus layout/margin option you want to use here.
    4. Click OK on Page Setup. You are now ready to print.

  • Installing most recent print driver for Epson Pro 3800

    I like to make sure that I use the most recent print driver for my Epson Pro 3800.
    So I downloaded the driver "epson 328233 eu.dmg" and it shows up in "Finder downloads"
    * I assume that this driver is the most recent one?
    I have no idea how to continue to replace the existing driver and how to install the latest driver?
    * Do I have to remove the present driver? If so: how do I find the old driver and how do I remove this driver?
    * Thereafter in what way do I install the new driver?
    I am far from a software specialist and I recently switched from PC to iMac which is still troubling me!
    Thank you for helping me!
    Harry

    Dear Sig,
    Thank you for your answer which solved my problem.
    I had the imprerssion that in Mac some downloads are installed automatically and some are not?
    But this might be a wrong observation and is installing always necessary?

  • 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.

  • Why doesn't my macbook recognize printer driver for Epson T13X? I am using Mountain Lion 10.8.2

    I just downloaded the driver for Epson T13x from Epson's website and after downloading the 22mb file and trying to install it, I get the error "dmg not recognized" or something like that.
    OS X 10.8.2
    Thanks in advance!

    It's a corrupt download. Try downloading it again.

  • I upgraded from OS 10.4.11 to 10.6.8 and now cannot print to my Epson Stylus Photo RX595. When I try, I recieve the following error message: Error:/System/Library/Printers/Libraries/PrintJobMgr/Contents/MacOS/PrintJobMgr failed. Is this a driver issue?

    Is my inability to print from my Intel iMac with OS 10.6.8 related to a driver problem? I checked the Epson website for up-to-date drivers, but they appear to only have print drivers good through OS 10.5x. I did the Apple software update yesterday so everything is up-to-date. Is there no support for the Epson RX545 under OS 10.6x?

    When you upgrade from a previous OS there is always a chance that you will bring some setting that is not compatible with the new OS. This can be the driver as noondaywitch suggests but it can also be the core printing system. In the case of the latter, it is a good idea to reset the printing system when a core error occurs. Note that the reset sets the printing system back to default and removes your currently installed printer and scanner queues. But it does not remove the supporting drivers, so you only need to install the driver again.
    How to Reset the Printing System
    1. Open System Preferences > Print & Scan/Fax
    2. Move your mouse over the Printers list
    3. Hold down the Control button and click the mouse
    4. Click the "Reset printing system ..." popup
    5. Restart your Mac
    Just one additional thing to note. In checking the supported printer list for 10.6 from Apple, your RC545 is not listed so running the Software Update will not provide you with a driver for this printer. So if Epson does not have a driver for 10.6, and it appears that Apple does not provide one, then what you have already from the previous installation is it. And if this doesn't work, then you may have to look at either an alternate driver or getting another printer. But let's wait and see what happens after the reset.

  • Printer driver for Epson printer not found

    I have an Epson Stylus Color 860 printer. Epson apparently does not support this printer anymore, at least with Lion. I downloaded a driver from Gutenprint that seemed to do the trick. The only "problem" is that I get this message in the Printer Utility whenever I print.
    Is there anything I can do about this? Or should I just leave well enough alone? Like I said. The printer seems to print just fine from both OS X 10.7.1 and 10.6.8.

    It sounds like you may have a preference file left over from the Epson Stylus Color 860 printer.
    1) Have you followed the directory path, /Library/Printers/Epson/CIOSupport, to see if the plug-in exists.
    2) Check for a preference file named for the printer in  /Library/Preferences
    3) Check for a preference file named for the printer in  ~/Library/Preferences
    4) Check for an Epson print driver named for the printer in  ~/Library/Printers
    If you find items in those locations from Epson for the Stylus Color 860 printer, move them to the Trash or a folder on the Desktop. See if the message goes away.
    Be careful not to Trash any files related to the Gutenprint driver.

    Download the GIMP drivers for OS X. The package has a driver for your printer. Note on the download page that you also need to install the ESP Ghostscript package if you are using 10.2.x. The link is on the page.
