Epson CX4800 won't print everything from Internet

I've had an Epson Stylus CX4800 working for me long before I got my iMac. Although it could possibly benefit from a mechanical tune-up, something is happening that seems more like a potential software issue to me.
Whenever I print a fairly large document off the Internet, I get only three pages worth of material. The first page may have a screen header, the third page is blank (or mostly so), and only the second page has any of the material I tried to print. Nothing but the second page of material will print accordingly, so I lose most of what I have on the screen. This happens only when I print off the Internet, whether from my Hotmail account or any other site. Documents in any offline application, such as Word or Adobe Reader, print as usual.
I don't see how this could be a mechanical issue. I feel it's in the drivers Apple issued last, since there's been little or nothing new from Epson for this model lately (except for an Image Capture scanner update). I haven't seen this behavior before in versions of 10.6 prior to now, so it might also have to do with the current version of the OS. I'd like an opinion or two as to what I should do to correct this.

Syd: Thanks for the info. I'm aware of the differences between browsers and web sites when it comes to printing. But I'm also aware that there may be a problem with the current driver. I printed a message from my Hotmail account yesterday from my parents' computer; they use an HP printer, and the entire message came out on one sheet of paper. I was using the same browser there as I do at my own place (the latest version of Firefox), with the same version of the OS (10.6.4), and the results were vastly different. That alone supports my supposition about the drivers on my computer.
I am considering reinstalling the last version of the driver produced directly by Epson. That might alleviate the problem, but I'm still not certain. I need further input before proceeding.

  • Epson CX4800 Won't Print In OSX Mavericks

    I just upgraded to Mavericks. Now my Epson CX4800 won't print. I donloaded the Epson Printer Software Update (2.17) through the App Store Updates. I can print test pages through the Epson Printer Utility 4, but when I try and print any document from multiple apllications, my Epson Printer Utility shows that the document is printing (blue & white striped line), but nothing happens. I have tried deleting and adding the printer, but that does not help.

    Well I unistalled Gutenprint using their generic uninstaller. I tehn uninstalled the Epson drives, then downloaded the new ones and installed the, Same issue.

  • My MG8120 won't print wirelessly from my MacBook running OS 10.9.5. Works fine with HP printers.

    My MG8120 won't print wirelessly from my MacBook running OS 10.9.5 (Mavericks).  It works fine with all of the other HP printers in the office.  Another user has the same problem with her PC running Windows 7.  And she, too, has no problems printing on the other HPs.  I or she cannot print to any of three Canon printers in the office.

  • Epson C88 Won't Print with Snow Leopard

    C88 won't print using Snow Leopard. Downloaded driver from Epson doesn't help.????

    Like you, I'm working with an Epson C-88+. Happy with this situation, would not be exactly accurate. I have tried some different approaches, including the ones from John and Kappy. They would work just fine for about 3 days, then fail. I even went back to the Snow Leopard Install DVD/ Optional Installs/ Options.MPKG/ Printer Support and made a choice. I then went to Disk First Aid and everything was fine. Today, I went to print 1 envelope, total dismal failure. I then downloaded the EPSON Printer Drivers 2.1, I proceeded to install the drivers. Did anybody notice, this was an Apple License, not an EPSON License? Therefore, there are no assurances, that these print drivers are in fact, EPSON. Therefore, AppleCare should be required to support these Print Drivers as Apple Licensed Products. But equally so, we as 'dumb endusers' must try to work with AppleCare to solve this issue. To "pete.purvis" John and Kappy, sorry, you guys have proven yourselves to be out of the "dumb endusers group, I just want to say, THANK YOU!

  • HP ps 2115 - doesn't print correctly from internet

    I previously used AOL as my internet provider, and had no problems with printing stuff from the net.
    Ever since I changed to SKY Broadband (whih uses Internet Explorer 7), my HP psc 2115 will not print straight from an internet screen. It prints everything else absolutely fine, but a direct print from the net (i.e clicking 'print' on the web page) comes out as pages and pages of code.
    If I copy and paste the screen to a word document, it will print it perfectly (but is laborious. Also, my kids forget to do it this way, resulting in reams of pages of code left next to the printer!).
    I've installed the new version of the driver from the HP website, which has made no difference. I contacted SKY, who were singularly unhelpful, and said it was either the printer settings or MS Internet Explorer.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    This question was solved.

  • I am unable to print (any website) from the latest Firefox, but print fine from Internet Explorer. Using Windows Vista on a desktop machine.

    printer advances page and spits it out with either nothing or a single garbled line printed on it instead of a whole web page. This is independent of which web site and even happens with web sites that have a specific PRINT or PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION button. Printing is fine from Internet Explorer. Unsure about Chrome. Printing from Firefox worked fine until I downloaded newest version. Operating system is Windows Vista on a 64 bit desktop computer.

    Try the '''reset''' described here: <br />

    I installed Acrobat Pro XI.  Now I can't print a .pdf from the internet.  Instead, I have to save the .pdf and then open with Acrobat in order to print.  Can someone give some guidance on how to fix this?  thanks!

    64 bit Windows 7.  I used to be able to simply hit print on an internet .pdf and it would bring up the print menu.  After I installed Acrobat Pro XI, I hit print and nothing happens.  The menu doesn't pull up.  It I go to file > print, nothing happens.  Nothing shows up in the print tray.

  • Why does Epson Stylus Photo PX710W Print Rubbish from Firefox

    When I print from a website any pictures are fine but the text is gobbledegook. If I print directly from my PC (Word, Excel etc.) it prints perfectly. this happens whether I use the Print command from the Firefox main menu or whether I use the website print option.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I changed my printer

    I disagree a bit because my Epson printer/scanner worked very well for over 3 years. It worked under Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion. But since I installed Mavericks my scanner doesn't work anymore. It's just a case that Epson is very slow in upgrading the drivers within an appropriate time on the one hand and not giving any foresight how long it takes to repair drivers on the other hand. Their website is inadequate and gives me absolute no information at all. I can understand their vision when it comes to printer/scanners which are very old i.e 10 years and mor. But not for relatively new printer/scanners.
    So, if anybody can help i'll be very greatefull.

  • B110 won't print directly from iPhone

    I've posted on this before, but didn't get any help with the problem, so I'll try again.
    Basically, one of my B110 printers will not print directly from any iPhone or iPad. All devices come up with 'no Airplay printers found' message.
    Before anyone asks, yes, of course the printer is on the list of Airplay compatible printers, yes, it prints fine via eprint emails, and yes, I have followed the very limited (switch on and off type advice) from the Apple support site.
    It is connected via the D-Link Powerline N type wireless devices.
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Sorry to hear you are having issues with AirPrint! I found a document that should resolve your issue. Be sure to follow the article in order. Be sure to post back with your results so I know if this solved your issue. I hope this helps!
