Problem printing with Epson 3800 and Photoshop CS5

I came across a problem trying to print with my Epson 3800 in Photoshop CS5. I recently upgraded to Photoshop CS 5 (and Lightroom 3). I tried to print using my Epson 3800 with CS5 but could not adjust Print Settings, Color Mamagement, Paper Configuration, Expand Border because those options are unavailable and there is a line crossing through them. I get a message that says "The bundle 'Print Setting' could not be loaded because it does not contain a version for the current architecture". It then says to contact the creator listed here for the latest version: PrintSetting version 3.57, Copyright SEIKO EPSON CRP 2001-2006. I can print through Photoshop CS4 as usual, but CS5 is a problem. I haven't tried printing though Lightroom 3 yet, and have not typically used Lightroom to print, but I wonder if that will be a problem too?
Any help will be appreciated.

If you run CS5 or LR as a 32bit application you will have all these option available to you. You can then save these options as presets that can then be applied when you are running the applications in 64bit mode even if you can not access them individually.
Also you might want to check Epson's download site especially the European site to see if there are newer drivers or updates for your printer. The newest drivers for other printers like the 7600/9600 support application running in 64bit mode.

Lost Epson print settings in CS5. Help

When I initiate a print in CS4, I get the Epson options to choose paper settings, etc. In CS5, the file just starts to print. When I click on the button that says Print Settings, nothing happens. I have both CS4 and CS5 still on my computer so I am working in 5 and then printing in 4. Surely there is a fix for this???? Thanks!

In CS5, the "Print Settings" button has replaced "Page Setup". Click on it before clicking print. If you don't, it'll use the previously used settings.
If "nothing happens" when clicking the "Print Settings" button, try switching printers or try switching from "Photoshop Manages Colors" to "Printer Manages Colors" (or vice-versa). If all else fails, relaunch Photoshop while holding the command, control, shift and option keys (one of them may not be needed, but I can never remember which, so I just mash them all) to delete the application preferences.

Is it yet possible to print on an Epson 4880 from Photoshop CS5?

I am using an iMac with OS 10.10.1. I have done reinstalls of Photoshop CS5 and the Epson print drivers but Photoshop crashes whenever I attempt to print or adjust print settings.

Perhaps it time to get a PC

PC prints to Epson 7800 good from CS5- bad from Lightroom

I run a small govt photolab. I am on a network running the whole CS5 suite. Printing from photshop using the default setting everying comes out roughly the way it looks on the screen.
Printing from Lightroom the colors are way off, or they're flat. I've tried different, including one from the paper manufacturere (Ilford) No luck.
We are not very sophisticated here. This is not fine art printing and we don't use any kind of calibration. But when i had a Mac everything went from the screen to the print accuratly.
I've tried converting to JPEG first along with a few other random efforts, but I'm not making any progress.
Thanks

A few questions (or skip to the para below):
Do you start with jpeg or raw? If jpeg, what colour space?
What working space is set in Photoshop - is it sRGB?
Are your monitors colour-managed (calibrated and profiled with hardware colorimiters)?
Are your printers capable of colour management - do they take account of the profile of the image being printed - or alternatively do you colour-manage from Lightroom and Photoshop, and have the driver set to be colour management aware but also set so that the driver knows that the program is doing the colour management?
If you're not sure of the answers to these questions, then try this: print from Lightroom, but in the Color Management panel (bottom right of print module) set the profile to sRGB (or sRGB IEC61966-2.1 or similar). Does that make a difference? Does it now print images the same as Photoshop?
If setting a profile of sRGB IEC... makes a difference, then the reason for the problems is probably that the printer doesn't recognise image profiles (or has colour-management turned off). Lightroom always uses ProPhoto colour space as its Working Space. If you print and select the profile as "managed by printer", then Lightroom sends the image to the printer in ProPhoto colour space. If the printer can't colour manage (doesn't recognise and act on embedded profiles) then ProPhoto images will look very flat and desaturated.
If it looks OK in Photoshop, I'm guessing you've got the Working Space set to sRGB (Edit menu, color settings, and top line in the "Working Spaces" box near the top of the dialogue).
If printing in LR using sRGB profile fixes the problem, then job done, but it also suggests you might not be using colour management in the printers, so you might do better with colour-mangement in the printers and appropriate profiles and calibrated and profiled monitors.
PS - just noticed you're using Epson 7800 printers which I'm sure are capable of colour-management, but I guess you may not be using colour-management (that is, not specifying a printer profile and enabling colour-management, which defaults off in Epson printers).

Printing on epson cold press bright paper with Epson 2200 in Photoshop CS5

The printer is old. Epson chooses neither to support it, nor does it seem to have anyone in their tech support knowledgeable about paper profiles. The paper is the whitest of white, and a bit thicker and stiffer than any of the usual watercolor papers i have been using for years by the likes of Hannemuele and Arches. The profile that came with this paper is actually made for an Epson 3880 printer, I suspect because the 2200 is no longer supported by Epson.
Usually with any new unsupported paper, I'll experiment within the photoshop print and profile settings, and eventually jerryrig something that looks decent. However, this particular paper is quite expensive, so before I waste a bunch of it, I thought maybe someone on this forum could offer some advise. I have tried printing with it only once so far, using the Apple (1998) profile with Photoshop in charge of printing. The result was that it "almost" works, except the red or oranges won't print at all, and instead, they both print as yellow. I also noticed that the paper ran through the printer much too quickly, as if it wasn't printing all of it.
Immediately after this test, I ran my usual watercolor paper through the printer with the same settings. it printed true, AND, significantly, it took 3 times as long to get the paper all the way through the printer.
Can someone here offer me any guidance? My own next (blind) choice would be to try the Epson 3880 profile that's made for this 13X19 inch paper, and also let the printer control the colors. But what about all the other settings? blackpoint? colormetric? all that stuff. Any help is much appreciated.
One other thing. Even with this throw-away test print, i can tell that the EWpson cold press bright is something special. Both the detail and the color (those colors that were true) were very deep indeed.

Well, my Epson 2200 may be old but it normally does a fantastic job on any paper I throw at it—provided the target profile is accurate and tailored for your particular unit.
It's not clear to me who supplied the target profile you are using to print on that Epson Cold Press Bright Paper, but I'm unaware of of Epson ever having offered a target profile specifiocally for using that paper on the 2200.
Frankly, I never even attempt to use any given photographic paper on my 2200 for which I don't have a custom profile for that specific combination of paper, ink and exact printer model.
My advise is to have a professionally generated profile made by one of the several excellent commercial profiling services that send you one or more target images to print on your printer and then you sent them your prints for them to generate the specific profile by using the best available colorimeter.
Using a profile made for a different printer model borders on the absurd, in my opinion. The least I would accept is a standard profile made by the paper manufacturer on a range of units of that specific printer model, and I would still not be as comfortable as with a specific profile derived from target-image prints made for my particular 2200 unit.
The prices for this service vary widely from one service outfit to another one, and some are very reasonable (try Inkjetart<===click* for the $25 price range, for instance). In most instances, it can be considerably cheaper than the amount of wasted ink and paper from repeated and futile trial-and-error attempts to get an optimal print from your 2200.
* I have no connection to Inkjetart whatsoever,

Adding a new Epson scanner to Photoshop CS5.1 on LION computer

We just recently (today, in fact) installed a new Epon flatbed scanner on an iMac running MAC OS 10.7.2. It already had Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 on it. It seems that no matter what we do, when we click on File on go to Import, the scanner option is not there. I am not an experienced Photoshop user (or an experienced Mac person), I am going by what the end user tells me should be there and how its supposed to work. She needs to be able to scan from the new scanner in Photoshop. Is there documentation somewhere that tells us how to get Photoshop to "see" the scanner.
The computer is a brand new (a month old) iMac that came with LION. We had to replace to replace the old scanner becsause it was not supported in LION (supposedly the one we just bought is).

Are there scanners out there that Photoshop CS5.1 version 12.1 for Macintosh will just recognize without all the intervention by an I.T. person. Will Photoshop allow scanning from within the application with any scanner? (the user thinks we should just get another scanner)
It's important to understand that scanning into Photoshop is not directly between Photoshop and the scanner (hardware). The entire process depends on what scanning software mediates between Photoshop and the scanner. Photoshop just sits there and waits for software to hand it an image. The scanner just sits there and waits for some software to ask for a scan. So it should not be necessary to change the scanner itself. Instead, try changing the scanning software.
When the software that comes with the scanner doesn't do what someone wants, sometimes they turn to third-party scanning software. I use VueScan, which has historically run as a separate application, but recently added the option to be launched from within Photoshop as a plug-in and return the image straight into Photoshop, just like she wants. As long as your scanner is on the supported list, this is a possible solution. But it'll cost a little money.
VueScan is an good example of how critical software is to scanning. Many people use VueScan to get around limitations of the bundled software. Sometimes they want more features than the scanner's own software came with. Sometimes they need it because the bundled software no longer works in the latest Mac or Windows OS, so it lets people keep running old scanners for many more years, instead of having to buy a new one.

Epson r1900 Prints too dark after upgrading to cs5 from cs3

Ok this one has got me stumped. While still in photoshop CS3 my epson r1900 was printing photo's just fine. After upgrading cs3 to Photoshop cs5 it now prints everything too blue. Nothing else has changed. My monitor is still calibrated, my printer paper profiles are still the same, the only change was upgrading to cs5. To me it looks all the world like ICM is being applied twice (in photoshop and the printer) but in photoshop I have selected "photoshop manages colors" just like I did in cs3, and in the print dialog box for the printer, I have selected no ICM again just like I did in CS3. But now the prints come out with a, to my eye, dark blue tint. Very very frusterating. I have deleted the color prefs file and let that recreate, but that did not help either. I am out of tricks. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Patrick

There were a lot of reports of "double profiling" with Epson printers when Photoshop CS5 was first released. I believe many people were seeing magenta-looking prints at that time.
Unfortunately, I don't think there was ever a resolution or even a good workaround... I recall at least one person bought a new printer to be able to continue to work.
Of course, double check to see whether Epson has released any updated printer drivers.
As I don't have an Epson myself, I can only suggest that you'll want to experiment with your settings to see if you can find a way to disable color management in the printer driver, so that only Photoshop does it - or disable color-management in Photoshop so that only the printer driver will do it.

Printing problems inDesign CS5 to an Epson 3880

When printing one color CD cover to an Epson 3880 from inDesign CS5, it fills and exceeds a 8.5" by 11" page. This same procedure has worked excellently for quite some time and now doesn't. I reset Preferences and this didn't work. Any thoughts?

I really appreciate your efforts at helping me, thank you. The document set-up is 8.5" by 11" (portrait). I have simply created a CD case label on the page using a box so I can print two-up, I have not re-scaled the page to my knowledge.
The correct paper size is noted in the print driver, you have several choices under the Epson 3880 menu including borderless or retain size - I have tried both without success. Just to make sure, I have restarted my computer, opened inDesign and then created a fresh new document and it happens again. I also re-set the Preferences again (restarted te computer) just to make sure it took.
I have printed a picture using Aperture and PhotoShop with great results, this problems seems to be isolated to inDesign.

Red prints from PS CS5 on Epson 2200

Printing problem on Epson 2200 from PS CS5, version 12.1 and from LR 3.6, running Mac 10.7.5. Prints are severely red cast, the way I remember them to look before I learned to shut off the printer driver. This is not just a little variation in color, but weird red prints. After contaccting Epson and printing successfully from Preview, they said it was an Adobe problem and I should contact Adobe. Epson said it is also happening with the 3880. Until very recently I have always had satisfactory prints. The issue started last night and I can't resolve it.

Your Photoshop preferences. Use the shortcut keys to delete the preferences as your starting Photoshop. I do not know if Photoshop store preferences for devices in its preferences. I do know that Photoshop stores print information in saved documents and also accesses device information the it may save in its preferences. I know on my Windows machines I had red tinging problems on my Epson 4800 which was solved by resetting my Photoshop Preferences.

Epson 3800 printer profiles not showing up in Photoshop 3 and 5

When I try to print to my Epson PRO 3800, asking Photoshop to handle colors, this printer profiles are not available. I have this printer for years and have always used PS CS3 to print (and handle colors). Now I have PS CS5 but continue to use 3 for printing to the 3800, because the Epson profiles disppeared from CS5. Now they have disappeared from CS3 too. Any advices?
Thanks1

it might be helpful to include what os you are using (unless i missed it)

Color Settings with Epson R1800

Hi
I am using an Epson R1800 with Photoshop CS5 and Lion. When trying to print I do not have the color management option and under Print Settings Color: and Color Settings: both are greyed out. This problem does not occur with my Epson D68 or when using Numbers and TextEdit.
Any advice would be much apreciated.
Peter

Every printer has different drivers and different functionality. You can either continue looking through the printers print dialogue to see if it supports the feature you're looking for or you will need to put in a feature request to Epson and hope on later revisions they include it. Because the print drivers are supplied to Apple from the printer manufacturer Apple has little control over the drivers.

Epson R1900 prints look awful

I'm printing from a MacBook Pro. 2008
Printed images on my high end Epson R1900 look awful.
Printed out of photoshop they don't resemble what's on screen in the slightest.
Printed out of indesign they are much better but still random.
Every program prints differently.
Snapseed prints better results than most.
Why the inconsistency? I'm wasting so much paper and ink trying to get something that should be simple right.
Any ideas?
thanks

CS5 Printing to an Epson 1900 What happened?

It worked fine in CS 4 to the Epson just select Adobe RGB as the profile in the Print dialog then do the same in the Epson Drivers now I cannot do that once I have the color management option selected in the photoshop print dialog this is now grayed out in the Epson drivers. I found it the past that the data is not fully passed along to the Epson drivers and you have to also select it in the Epson drivers regardless of the fact tht you had Photoshop managing things.
This is another instance of very poor testing process on the side of Adobe when they have testers all of who are creating their own profiles for their paper leaving the professional photographer to go through hell to get their first good print using Photoshop.
Perhaps it is about time you get testers who actually make their living taking photography rather than testers who sell custom profiles.
What nonsense this is from day one that I first got an epson printer I was told that this works for Adobe and it should work for me but everything that Adobe does is not based on everyday professional photography conditions it is base on lab condition which is nonsense, in a controlled environment.
I printed my images extremely well with the 1900 until I tried today and cannot do what I have been doing before. Make the improvement but it has to work. You spend entirely too much time improving thins that just break what ever was fixed before.
And to Chris Cox or any other Adobe employee this has been the issue every single release since I first purchased Photoshop 5, not one time has Adobe not left the user to fend for themselves after they have broken their workflow.
It is time to stop and get to work. This really stinks.
BTW I have my worked reproduced world wide and have very consistent results in Magazines and Books and print to Digital CPrints all the time without any issues.
Adobe your testing team stinks they should have been screaming about this nonsense. Now I have to either print from CS 4 or find a work around.
The fact that many users are using other programs to print is testimony of this failure. it is about time you not prove how smart you are and just make a reasonable work flow.
I seldom complain here but this is just too much it would be please=ant to see one time where this was not an issue.

I agree this whole issue is confusing. I have been on the issue (proper printer driver behavior and proper application behavior) using Apple's new print path for a few years now, so I will try to make an attempt to clear up as much confusion as possible.
If drivers and applications are working (written) properly this is how it is supposed to work.
When printer manages color is selected in an application print dialog then all functions of the printer driver are available.
When applications manages color is selected then Color Matching is grayed out defaulted to ColorSync, and the property written print driver defaults to No Color Adjustment (Epson) or No Color Correction (Canon).
See attached examples of both Epson 9600 driver version 8.19 and Canon iPF driver version 2.14.
Epson can and has definitely gotten it right with their latest drivers.
Canon on the other hand uses a special case file (AppColorMatchingInfo.xml) which list the applications that use Apple's new printing path. New application like Photoshop CS5 will need to be added to this file or the driver will default to color management when application manages color is chosen which results in double profiling.
I see nothing that indicates to me that neither Apple or Adobe have problems or bugs in this printflow. Only drivers (and old drivers) that are not written correctly for Apple's new printing path seem to have these problems with double profiling. That being said, do I agree with Apple's approach regarding the new print path? NO. It appear to be an attempt to idiot proof printing using application manages color printing, although it is claimed to be necessary for 64-bit applications. I personally would prefer to use the old print path (like still available in Indesign) where all options are available in the driver regardless of what CM setting I choose in the application print dialog. But it is what it is.
