Epson 635 printer won't install via wireless with Mountain Lion

I am helping a friend with the upgrade to Mountain Lion and She has a giant desktop which I think is a MacPro but I'm not sure. Anyway everything works fine except now her Epson 635 printer won't see the wireless network. To me this seems like a router problem but all other computers see the network via the router. Also, this only happened with this upgrade. We've uninstalled and reinstalled the printer, drivers, etc and still no go. Forgive me if my lingo is off but I am a tad new to Mac. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Here's a "Print 101" guide for Mac computers:

I believe that you're talking about an Epson WorkForce 635, which I'm quite sure Apple supports because they support the WorkForce 630 [series].
So try removing the printer from the MacBook and re-installing it per the guide.
P.S.: I'm running a WorkForce 645 printer just fine from Mountain Lion.

Epson SX445W printer won't work since upgrading to mountain lion

I upgraded both my iMac and my Macbook to mountain Lion and ever since doing so the less than 6 months old Epson SX445W printer I have, which is supposed to be compatible with Mountain Lion won't print wirelessly anymore.
I've hunted high and low for new drivers, tried removing and re-installing the printer, switched off gatekeeper, all to no avail, the only way I can get it to work is to print via USB.
The Printer network settings show it is correctly linked to the wireless network.
I've tried adding the printer via IP, when I put the printers IP in, the imac detects the printer and asks me if I wish to use the Epson Stylus SX440 (which I select as it is this driver I previously used before mountain lion) and it the tries to install, tries to download new software and then fails, with the error message
'Can't install the software fo the Epson Stylus SX440 because it is not currently available form the Software Update Server.'
I am at a loss as to how to progress, I'm starting to feel the upgrade from Lion to Mountain Lion was pointless, I must admit I was perfectly happy with Lion anyway as it always worked flawlessly for me.
Any help would be appreciated.
Craig

Hi Mende1
When I do that no printer appears unfortunately, only Adobe PDF 8.0
SInce posting this I did try removing and adding again, I have managed to get it to print by using the IP again to add and entering the ip address and then instead of using the default SX440 driver off my machine I selected from the list on the dropdown and chose Series 440, this successfully added the printer, and it just printed a test page, however I'm a little worried that this won't persist as soon as the printer is switched off and a new IP address is assigned by the DHCP server, and I shouldnt need to have to keep re-adding it, any other ideas are most welcome

Could someone help me with instructions for doing a clean install for iMac with mountain lion 10.8.4 ?

   Barney, William, nbar, Galt\'s Gulch:
   A nephew stayed with us to take a course at the local community college last semester. I allowed him use of my mac for research just after I installed Mountain Lion. He decided to "help out" and ran a 3rd party clean and tune up app., Magician. The tune up wiped over 1200 titles of my music in iTunes, also a path of folders with names containing nothing but more empty folders with names. Almost every program I open and run for a short time crashes, also folders and programs are in wrong places, or cannot be located (the nephew, for instance). Up to this time I have always been able to track a problem far enough to resolve it by careful persistence and good luck, but I do not have the tech savvy to solve this one without getting in deeper. I have run disk utility saveral times and always get variations of this:
ACL found but not expected on
"private/etc/resolve.conf"
"private/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/inner-tunnel"
"private/etc/rabbd/sites-enabled/control-socket"
     Also, after four years of intense daily use it is cluttered with much junk, and every app that I was curious about, and I am a very curious guy.
   So I know my limits, (and now my nephew). I dumped my pc for a Strawberry iMac a few years ago, and so far every problem I've encountered, or brought on myself, the Mac has resolved with its own inner elegance - in spite of my novice bungels - and now I honestly feel ashamed, in addition to the need to apologize to a machine for allowing a peasant into the Royal Grounds - so I am calling the Wise Ones in for this one.
   Crazy, I know, but to me a Mac represents something far beyond the ordinary input ➛ process ➛ output title/function customarily assigned to a machine - I sense an odd kind of morality involved, one that I need to respect.
    So, these are my reasons for wanting to do a clean install, correctly.
        Thank you, Truitt

After upgrading to 10.3.9, Epson R340 printer won't install

I was happily using both an Epson C84 and an Epson R340 printer on my old red iMAC on OS 10.2.X. I upgraded to OS10.3.9. The C84 prints properly. The R340 doesn't. When I tried making a photo, I got a "Communication Error" message and found that the Printer was not in the Printer List. I reinstalled the printer driver, both from the latest downloadable version, and from the CD that came with the computer. After getting the "Searching for drivers" message, when the tool bar is set to Epson USB nothing appears. When the tool bar is set to USB, I get a message that the R340 driver is not installed. Curiously, the Epson Printer Utility recognizes the R340 and will perform a nozzle check and print out the sample.
I have tried uninstalling the driver first, have repaired permissions and the hardrive, rebooted a million times, swapping the USB cords between the C84 and the R340, all to no avail. Any suggestions. Many thanks!!

I would navigate to Mac OS X disk/Library/Printers/EPSON/ and trash the driver(s) that are there for the R340. Disconnect the R340 from the computer and then download and install only the driver from the EPSON site since the one on the CD might be obsolete. Repair Disk Permissions and restart the computer. Attach the R340 and see if Printer Setup Utility sees it.

HT3258 The scanner on my Canon inkjet printer MG6200 series will not work with Mountain Lion. How can I fix this?

The MP Navigator software in my scanner cannot be opened since I installed Mountain Lion. Canon say they don't have a way of fixing this, so is there a solution out there I wonder?

I have the MG6250 and MP Navigator v5.0.2 is working on my 10.8.2 Mac, so I don't know why the Canon support is telling you that it cannot be fixed.
To use MP Navigator you must have the full scanner driver installed. And when it is installed you then need to configure MP Navigator to use the networked MG62xx.
Also ensure you are using the latest version of MP Navigator. Try trashing the one you currently have in Applications > Canon Utilities and then installing this latest version.

Can't print using HP Photosmart C7280 wirelessly in Mountain Lion

Hi folks,
Having recently updated to the latest HP Printer drivers I have been unable to print or scan with my printer wirelessly since.
Whenever I try to print something the print queue tells me that it fails to find the printer. Same thing happens whenever I try to scan something.
The printer works fine is I connect it to a USB via my MacBook Pro but that completely defeats the purpose of me getting the printer in the first place.
I've reset the network settings on the printer and reconnected it, and I've removed the printers from System Preferences and added it again but I'm not sure where to go from there.
Thanks in advance.

Greetings,
Check out this thread. Follow the second post (solved post) on how to setup a static IP.

Why won't DVD Player work with Mountain Lion?

I just tried to play a DVD on my Macbook Pro that worked just fine before I updated to Mountain Lion. Each time I try to play it, I get an error telling my that DVD Player has "unexpectedly quit." I've tried shutting down and restarting with no luck. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I want to love the Mountain Lion update, but this is really frustrating.

See this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/19896549#19896549
also, I had the same problem. What fixed it for me (so far) was to launch DVD Player, then load the DVD in the drive. Using that procedure got it working, and it has been working since.

How do I get my HP M1217nfw LaserJet printer to work with Mountain Lion

I have an HP LaserJet M1217nfw printer and a new Mac Mini with Mountain Lion. I need to print wirelessly. I updated the printer's firmware, but still get an error message saying "You need to install software to use this printer.To install the software, choose Software Update from the Apple menu. If the software for your printer isn’t available in Software Update, contact the manufacturer of your printer." There is no software update available from Apple. HP says they do not have a driver for Mountain Lion. Help!

The printer already shows up in my printers when I go to preferences. In the link you gave me,
Under Nearby Printers , click the name of your printer.NOTA:Make sure that the printer kind is Bonjour or Bonjour Multifunction .
Click the Use box, and then select AirPrint from the pop-up menu if it is not selected already.figura 1: Selecting an AirPrint printer in the Add window
I do not have the option of "Nearby Printers, and do not have the screen shown in the screen shot where I can click "use" and select "AirPrint".

Can Mavericks be uninstalled? Don't know if the discussion title pulled in all of my problem, so here it is again. Since installing Mavericks, my HP Printer adds an extra page to every print job, and iCal won't synch via iTunes with the Calendar on my iPhone 4s.
And no, I was a bad boy and had not been Time Machining. Guess I will now.
So, can Mavericks be uninstalled?

Try installing the Epson drivers from here:

and then seeing if adding and printing with USB works.
This site really works and my computer is now printing.

Mountain Lion won't install on 10.7.4. Suggestion from Apple is to completely erase harddisk and install Leopard Snow Leopard Mountain Lion. Is there no other way to install Mountain Lion

Mountain Lion won't install on 10.7.4. Suggestion from Apple is to completely erase the harddisk and install Leopard > Snow Leopard > Mountain Lion.
Is there no other way to install Mountain Lion?

I tried and failed for several hours to install Mountain Lion, and was repeatedly getting the "Recovery System" cannot be created error. I tried all the tricks: resizing the drive partition, booting from an external boot drive, all to no avail. After reading other users struggling with the same issue, I had determined it to be a boot camp drive error. However, I didn't want to have to erase and begin anew when I came upon a possible solution. I had long ago renamed my boot camp drive with a "." (".windows" for me) in order to avoid having the partition show up on my desktop. So, I boot into windows and renamed the c: drive without the "." ("windows"), and reboot into os x. The install then went off without a hitch. I hope this will be helpful for others struggling with this issue that may have renamed their boot camp drives in a similar manner.

Purchasing new HP Photosmart printer which will require new OS X Mountain Lion driver software. Which steps do I take to install new printer, old printer HP still on iMac.

Hi Carol 22,
Thanks for the post. Depending upon the printer model, print drivers may be available from ASU. If not, then go to hp.com and download Mt. Lion drivers to your iMac. After you complete the hardware setup of the printer, if connecting wireless, then connect the printer to your network and then complete the installation and add the printer. Then you can go back and remove your old printer. I hope this helps...Good Luck!
I work for HP but my posts and replies are my own....Thank you!

So, this post, as well written as it is, went totally ignored by the HP personnel that are supposedto be "helping" us poor novices? WOW! No wonder this crap gets thrown out of the house so often.
I have two HP network printers. An HP Officejet 4500 G510g-m, and a HP Photosmart Premium C410a, and they are the most unreliable pieces of "equipment" that I have in my network. This is absolutely trhe crappiest bunch of junk on the market. The only thing worse than these "devices" is the support from HP for them.
I also have a HP Photosmart C5280 AIO, and a Deskjet D2345 Printer. I have little, to no, problems with these two. The "flagships" of my network imaging are the worst, of the worst.
