Epson P50 printer not working

My Epson Stylus Photo P50 printer has been working fine until what I believe was a recent software update from Apple. Now it just crashes with the message that there is a problem with "rastertoescpII". I have tried reinstalling the driver software from the Epson site but that hasn't helped. Any ideas please?

Step 1
Open the Sharing pane in System Preferences. If the Computer Name is not set, enter a name. You may first have to click the lock icon in the lower left corner and authenticate to unlock the settings.

Step 2
If there's no improvement after Step 1, restore the following folder from the last backup you made before the EPSON update:
/Library/Printers/EPSON
You may have to reset the printing system for the change to become effective.

  • Printer not working after 10.6.8 update

    Hi,
    My printer was working fine until I updated my imac to 10.6.8.
    Now, i have been getting this error whenever i try to print:
    Error:/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpII.app/Contents/ MacOS/rastertoescpII failed
    I have an Epson stylus PHOTO RX640.
    Im not sure about the driver as i havent needed to download a driver manually, before when I first tried the printer(before update) it automatically worked and printed and didnt ask me anything about drivers..
    I tried deleting my print queue, restarting everything, changed my printer to factory settings. (I've looked on other places and i wasnt sure what it meant bby manually adding printer queue..?o.O)
    My printer only doesnt want to print. it scans fine, just doesnt print.
    HELP PLEASEEE

    I don't think that it was the 10.6.8 update.  There was an update to the Epson drivers that came out only a couple of days before 10.6.8 became available.  You most likely installed the Epson 2.7 drivers along with 10.6.8.  That version of the Epson drivers will not work with your printer.  See my post in a similar thread on how to revert back to the Epson 20.6 drivers.

  • Printer not working following iPad uodate

    Printer not working following iPad upgrade

    Hi,
    Is the printer not mechanically working or are you having a problem with printing wirelessly from your device? Was the upgrade to the ipad software or did you get a new ipad?
    Try restarting your apple device - It's a simple fix that sometimes helps re-establish the connection to the printer.
    Other things to check would be that there have been no recent changes to the wifi password.

  • File- Print not working from SQL Developer 1.2.1 Build MAIN-32.13

    File->Print not working from SQL Developer 1.2.1 Build MAIN-32.13.
    I downloaded sqldeveloper-1.2.1.3213.ZIP and extract to a local directory. From the extracted directory I ran ..\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper.exe from Windows XP sp2. The program itself seems to run just fine but File-Print doesn't do anything. In Help-About, Java Platform is reported as 1.5.0_06 and Oracle IDE is 1.2.1.3213. I'm not sure where to look for what is causing the problem.
    Thanks

    I hadn't tried CTRL-P before but I did today. On the first attempt, I saw a small jump in the memory usage for sqldeveloper.exe as reported in Windows Task Manager. Otherwise, there was no change. A second CTRL-P in the same session produced a further bump but subsequent attempts in the same session produced no further change in CPU or Memory Usage.
    Using Task Manager to monitor this further, I tried File->Print again and saw that sqldeveloper would periodically climb to 1 or 2 percent CPU and consume a little more memory. After a minute or so, though, all activity stops again.
    I do not get a print dialog box from SQLDeveloper using either CTRL-P or File->Print

    I cant access any printers, not even the virtual printers.
    What I would do is use ProcMon to find out why that Event entry was written.  Then I imagine I would get a clue about a .dll which might be involved, which hopefully might be registerable.  Since IE9 there have been new .dll  involving printing
    which have not been reflected in any of our repair tools.  However, instead of modifying our old scripts to reflect this fact, I have been advocating, so far unsuccessfully, that Microsoft create a proper IE Repair tool, one which does not rely on such
    unreliable techniques.   E.g. a better method of repairing would be to have it done by a proper troubleshooter (an .msdt file) but so far it seems nothing has been done in that way for these symptoms (again, assuming the cause is registry corruption
    and not simple interference from now incompatible third-party programming--the fix for that would be to identify and remove the incompatibilities.)   For example.

  • Epson Printer Not Working Over WIFI

    I have an Epson XP-400 printer and am having trouble getting anything to print over the Wifi connection (I've already contacted Epson and they're saying it's probably an issue with OS X). The printer queue keeps telling me "The printer is not connected". I've gone through the whole wifi setup, and have gotten it to print in the past just fine, but whenever the printer goes to sleep, it ceases to wake up when I tell it to print. I have to manually go upstairs and hit the power button. But even then, it takes another minute or two to finally decide to print the thing. It's a huge pain in the butt...
    Is this an issue with how my settings are configured inside OS X?

    I was wondering if one of the recent mountain lion updates has caused this issue  eg the Airport Update.
    The recent updates were to the Airport Utility which is only used to configure Apple Airport base stations such as Airport Express, Time Capsule, and Airport Base Station and an update to the firmware in the Airport base stations. There was also a recent update to the Canon printer drivers. So unless you actually ran Disk Utility and changed the configuration and/or updated the base station firmware they would have no effect on your printer connectivity.
    You may be encountering WiFi network interference from other WiFi networks on the same or adjacent channels. There are a number of apps that will analyze your local WiFi network environment, If you do not have one there are some available at reasonable cost from the App Store. There are several free apps but they only show your particular WiFi signal. You need one that shows ALL the network activity in your environment. WiFi Radar is one that will do nicely. If you find another network on the same or adjacent network channels when the printer quits working configure your wireless router/base station to work on another channel. That may solve your problem.

  • Why does my Kodak printer not work with yosemite?

    ever since upgrading to yosemite, my kodak printer will not work. i got as far as being able to download a software update but still no joy.

    My kodak 5250 would not print and I tryed the termial with no luck and then i received an email from nowater and turn on Bonjuor in safair and now I am printing i did not enter the ip address of my printer
    heres the email
    I decided to poke around in the Epson settings via the web interface.  To do this, just enter the printer's IP address in a browser that's on the same network (you may have to skip some HTTPS / certificate warnings).  From there I looked around until I found Wi-Fi/Network Settings / Services / Protocol.  On my system, Use Bonjour was unchecked.  I had seen in other people screenshots and videos that when the Add Printer tool works, it shows that it connects via Bonjour Multifunction, so I enabled Bonjour and saved the settings.  After waiting a few minutes for the settings to be applied, I was able to add the printer via the Add Printer Default tab (I did change the "Use" setting from "Secure AirPrint" to "Epson WF-3620 Series" option -- I think this is the Epson specific driver).
    I don't know if Bonjour is disabled by default or if I turned it off somehow in the past and forgot, but it's an easy enough fix that might work for someone else so I thought I should share.
    OTHER  posible solotion
    Go to Spotlight, then enter Terminal and press Enter.
    The terminal window/program opens.
    Enter sudo sh -c 'echo "Sandboxing Relaxed" >> /etc/cups/cups-files.conf' in the terminal.
    Enter your system OS login password when prompted.

  • Shared printer not working (most of the time)

    I have a Mac Pro running Snow Leopard using a shared Epson R380 printer connected to a G5 (running Leopard) . Most of the time it doesn't work, but occasionally it will. On the Mac Pro, the Epson monitor says "print job accepted" but doesn't change. On the G5, the Epson monitor shows the print job, but says "job stopped". When trying to resume the job, a warning box pops up on the G5 saying "Operation C0uld Not Be Completed - client-error-not-possible".
    The shared printer works fine (most of the time, too) with another networked Mac, a Mac mini G4 running Leopard.
    All OS's are the latest possible.

    Sharing between Leopard and Snowleopard does not work reliably. For this reason, we do not recommend mixing Operating Systems.
    Hope this helps,
    Syd

  • Dell Printer not working

    I'm am working on an iBook and my friend has a Dell XP desktop. We are on a wireless network and can share files. I want to be able to wirelessly print to his Dell A920 which is connected via USB to his computer.
    I am able to connect to the printer and set it up...i.e. I can use Printer Setup Utility navigate to his computer select the connected printer and everything. However, I am not able to selected what kind of printer it is because Dell isn't a choice, so I leave it as Generic.
    When I go to print a word document the printer makes noise (sounding like it's going to print) and a status bar showing the printing process shows up on the Dell's screen. Except, it goes from 0 - 100% in about 2 sec, then closes, and never prints. To me the problem seems to be that I can't select what type of printer it is in Printer Setup Utility and therefore there is no driver and I can't print.
    Does anyone know what this Dell's associated driver is. I think that Epson makes Dell's printers. Thank you very much.

    Lexmark make many of the Dell printers, however following earlier posts on this the Lexmark drivers will not work with Dell printers.
    The A920 is similar to the Lexmark X1150 so you could try that driver, but previous experience tells me it probably won't.
    As there is no Mac driver for the Dell printer you will need to print to PDF, pass the file onto the PC and print from there.
    The Generic Printer option won't work as the A920 is not a postscript printer.

  • Adobe PDF Printer not working as print driver; 9.5.5 (pro) with Windows 7, 64 bit

    I have installed, repaired, uninstalled and re-installed Acrobat Pro 9.5.5 on a newly formatted SSD with Windows 7, 64 bit on my desktop machine. The program was installed from Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 and updated within the program. I have the program also installed on my laptop, and the Adobe PDF Printer driver is working properly on my laptop.
    On my desktop with the newly formatted SSD, the Adobe PDF printer driver is not working. Note that I am using the printer driver, and not any pdf creation techniques within MS Office or other programs.
    When I go to the Adobe PDF printing preferences on my desktop, I only get a generic, two tab window open. When I print a file to this printer on my desktop machine, I do not get a window opening that asks where to create the pdf or what to name it, and I never see any files created. In MS Word, the Create PDF option under the Acrobat tab works and opens a dialog to ask the name and location to save, and then opens a PDF Maker progress window and properly creates the file. I can also save a file as an .eps or .ps file and use Distiller to create the pdf. However I cannot get the Adobe PDF printer driver in my Devices and Printers to work properly, although it works just fine on my laptop with the same program (Pro 9.5.5) and same Windows version (7, 64 bit).
    Repairing, uninstalling and re-installing does not solve the problem. Acrotray.exe *32 process is running. Any ideas on why this won't run properly on my desktop, but will run on a similarly configured laptop?
    On my laptop, I get a full, (7) tabl menu with all the normal options:

    I found this answer from Deepak Chauhan on another forum, and it solved this problem!
    Try this to add Adobe PDF printer manually on Windows 7, and Windows Vista.
    If windows 7 is Enterprise or better edition: (Admin rights required)
    Start>search for printmanagement.msc and open the print management module
    Expand the print server and expand the computer name to see availbale printers, drivers and printer ports.
    - from printers ensure there's no Adobe PDF printer, if there is delete it
    - go to ports and delete the PDF ports (the ones ending in *.pdf)
    - go to drivers and delete the PDF converter.
    Take note if any errors occur, but continue with the following steps regardless.
    If on windows 7 home edition, just goto start>Devices and Printers and ensure PDF pritner is not listed.
    Then open the registry (if any erors deleting these keys happen, see below)
    1: go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Printers
    delete any adobe PDF printer subkey present
    2: go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors
    delee the PDF port monitor if present
    3: go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers
    again delete and pdf printer subkey
    If any erros occur, you need to set the owner of the key to the currently logged in admin user, then ensure that user has full control.
    Do this by right-click the key and selecting permissions, clicking on advanced, then the owner tab.
    Once you've all that has been done, open a command line as administrator.
    Copy and pate the following commands in order
    1: net stop spooler
    2: rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection AdobePDFPortMonitor 128 C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AdobePDF.inf
    3: net start spooler
    4:rundll32.exe printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "Adobe PDF" /f "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AdobePDF.inf" /r "Documents\*.pdf" /m "Adobe PDF Converter"
    That should set back the pdf printer.
    This seemed to provide the link that provided the Adobe PDF Settings tab to the Adobe PDF Printing Preferences that was missing!
