Epson Print CD for Lion
This is the link to upgrade the Epson printers to Lion, including Print CD.
http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supportLion.jsp
Lion certainly has drivers for some Epson printers. These will allow basic use of the printer. Plugging your printer in and trying it will do no harm.
If you want the additional functions of ICC profiles and CD printing you will have to install the software that came with the printer or download it from the Epson support site.

Snow Leopard Updated Epson Printer Driver for Epson R800 - poor colour !
I just installed through software update the latest epson printer drivers and, then, deleted the Epson R800 from my printer list and added it back in (with the new printer driver). I did find a slightly different printer dialog box and found the setting of "presets" worked now (it did not previously).
However, when I printed out of Adobe Lightroom 2.6, using a custom paper profile and no colour management, that the print was faded, the colours were washed out. The result was unacceptable. After a few attempts, I looked in the Library folder, printers, epson and found two folders labeled, "inkjet printer" and "inkjet printer2". I determined that "inkjetprinter2" was the new folder and deleted it and deleted/added in my Epson r800 (using "inkjetprinter" folder. The resulting print was perfect.
So, my conclusion is that the new driver is not functioning as it should and I would warn users to be prepared for problems. Am I missing something here? Could I have done the updating of the printer driver and printer differently?You may need to recalibrate you monitor color settings.
One of the things that changed from 10.5 to 10.6 was gamma; if you are using calibration from 10.5 or earlier, the gamma change will throw off print colors.
Personally, on my last 2 epson printers (R300, RX685), I've configured to let the printer color manage, and used the Vivid setting.
Have not had any off colors, etc. -
Epson Pro 3880 Print Driver for Lion?
Epson state in an article on their web-site entitled "Mac OS X Lion Instructions (article 187366) that "Mac OS 10.6 drivers are compatible with Mac OS 10.7" Well, no they aren't, or not for my 3880 anyway. I specifically checked this out prior to installing Lion, and if I had known my 3880 wouldn't work, I would not have upgraded.
Is there any sort of work-around? If Epson's delays in getting compatible drivers when Snow Leopard came out are anything to go by, we could be in for a long wait.
When I asked Epson about this, they told me they only received Lion on the same day as it was released to the public. Can this be true?Yep, same here. For users upgrading from 10.6 to 10.7 Lion you will need to delete the printer from System Preferences, re-install the latest Epson 3880 driver (v6.6 as of today), add it back in System Preferences and you'll be golden.

Hi all,
I'd love to get your advice on what MFP laser printer to buy.
I need:
- Laser color PRINTING for a small business (+/- 1500 pages per month)
- SCANNING, preferably easy multipage scanning through the automatic document feeder
Optionally:
- 2nd paper feed tray
I think of buying the HP Color LaserJet CM2320fxi, but there seem to be plenty of compatibility issues with Lion (e.g. scan to network folder does not work on Lion).
I'd love to hear about success or failure of MFP on Lion from HP, Brother, Xerox, Lexmark, etc...
Thx for your advace,
S.I can recommend the Canon MF8380C. It has a document feeder that supports duplex scanning to Lion, either via Image Capture or Preview or 3rd party application like Acrobat Pro. You can also push scan documents from the machine by first configuring the scan settings using the Canon MF Toolbox that gets installed on the Mac.
The print quality is good for office documents, but not that accurate for colour proofing. It uses Canon's proprietary UFR2 v2.30 driver of which the Lion version of this driver is available from the Canon web.
As for the monthly volume, 1500 pages per month is the maximum recommended volume, so not sure if this would suit your business needs. It's recommended monthly volume is 800 colour pages. -
Any guess on how long it will take for HP to come up with laserjet printer drivers for LION?
HP does not have the printer drivers available for the Mac OSX 10.7 (LION) for the HP Laserjet 2420/2430 series; which has been true for previous OSX releases also? Just wondering if it's 1-3 months, or more before our printers can be expected to work again. Is it long enough to just abandon LION for a while, and go back to SnowLepard?
Since this is for an HP product support, you might want to visit their site:

They'll be able to estimate time of delivery better than Apple, who doesn't make HP drivers. -
New Epson printer drivers for OS X 10.6.1
Apple posted new drivers for SL 10.6.1, has anyone tried them yet to see if they help with SP2200 printing issues?
Download link hereTrue.
Here's the process I went through to check out results from the Gutenprint driver on my system (SR Macbook 10.6.1).
1) LR 2.4, Epson driver: I made a print with the old Epson driver, color managed by printer (you'll see why later), settings appropriate for Premium Glossy paper (what I printed on). RESULT - the icky green, contrasty image others have reported
2) Updated LR to 2.5, Epson driver, everything else the same. RESULT: slightly warmer image but still icky green/contrasty
3) Updated driver to Apple supplied Gutenprint linked to in my OP. Configured driver settings to appropriate to Premium Glossy paper. RESULT: very acceptable result, with further tweaking I could get it dead on.
Note that the settings in the printer's dialog box with Gutenprint are quite different than the Epson driver. There is NO ability to turn off color management there. Click the Layout pull-down menu and choose "Printer Features" to make settings appropriate to your paper and then save them as a preset. -
My printer is not connecting with my computer via Wi-Fi, want can I do to fix this problem?.
Exactly what is going on with my Epson XP 810. I will reset my modem and it will print one or two pages and then say "Searching for printer" and it will never find it unless I reset the modem. Was working fine last week so I don't know what changed.

Need a WiFi laser printer recommendation for Lion and iOS
I'm looking to get a new printer.
Here are my needs...
Home printing, maybe 10-20 pages per week
Scanner built in
Laser (I'm tired of being bled dry with HP's $30 ink jet cartridges that last only a month or two). Color is not important
WiFi and reliable, at that...my current WiFI printer goes to sleep and doesn't wake up unless you go to the printer and press a button
Budget $100-$200
While I don't regularly need to print from iDevices, if it did it would be nice, this is not a top priority.
I've done online searching and as soon as I see an attractive model, the ratings say "doesn't work with Lion"
Thanks!I was in the same boat some months ago, and went with Brother MFC 9120CN. Its a bit over budget but fantastic, just works. They have a BW version as well which should fit your budget. (Never try Samsung had to send 5! back to factory..)
Hope that helps -
Having problems with your epson print after installing Lion?
Go hear for download.
http://support.apple.com/downloads/#epson%202.8
My Macpro wouldnt do a auto software update for some reason.Hello Becky,
I performed all the windows xp updates when I installed xp.
Our computer has labview 6.0 and 6.1 on it. I thought maybe they were causing a problem, so I tried uninstalling them. I downloaded msiblast and tried to remove Labview 6.0 and 6.1, but since they used to be on a network, and the university does not carry those programs anymore, they gave me errors. I was able to uninstall 7.0 and reinstall it, but it still gave me the same error as described in the original post.
I went into the registry and removed 6.0 and 6.1, but it still gives me the same error.
I need a way of removing 6.0 and 6.1 so that I can do a clean install of 7.0.
Thanks for your help,
Sergio

For Particular Cheque printing I created Page Format Under "Dev. type" SAPWIN "Rel.4.x/SAPlpd 4.09+ ONLY!".
Page Format Description is:
Format Ty. Format P L Lines Columns Comment
ZZCHEQUK S ZZCHEQUK X
Format P L Width Height
ZZCHEQUK X 00205 MM 00093 MM
Paper Size set on this printer is A4. But client can able to Print in same size & on same printer from there previous software.
Is it required to set particular Height on each & every printer for definite use.
Pl suggest me how to to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
AbhayHi Abhay,
Question is not clear like how you are getting out put, so far my understanding from your query, you need to set up both the <i>Device Types</i> and <i>Page Formats</i> from SPAD Tcode.
Ex: page length and width
SPAD -> Device Types
Select the Device type and go to Formats
Select the Printer initilization
Change No of lines and Hex Values.
Page Format is the same like what you defined -
Can't print to CD using Epson Print CD with iMac and Mavricks
I just got a new iMac to replace my older MacBook.
Both systems have the latest version of Mavericks 10.9.5. and the latest Epson printer driver for my Artisan 730. On the iMac when I try to print to a CD using Epson Print CD I am unable to select the media type like I can on the MacBook. On the iMac the selection is grayed out and I cannot select anything from it. See screen shot below.
On the MacBook for Media Type I can select CD but on the iMac as you can see is grayed out. I can't figure out why. I have looked at the Epson support pages and I found no help there. So I am trying here to see if someone can help me out.
Why can't I select a media type?Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I might as well tell you now, but it has been found that CDs last longer that are not printed or labeled on. And drives are able to better handle disks with no labels. Use jewelcases with inserts to keep track of what's on a CD or DVD. It is not a direct answer to your question, but I have a CD printing printer, the Epson R220, and I won't use the CD labeler. Here's an interesting report on this:
http://www.macintouch.com/cdrfailure.html
If you must do it, and you don't care about the longevity of your disks, make sure that the tray's rear entrance is not blocked. People who have put Epson Photo R220's against walls have had the same error you are getting. -
Installed iLife08 - now Epson Print CD won't open - HELP!
Hi everyone, not sure where this belongs. I recently installed iLife '08 and have just tried to use Epson Print CD for my R230, and it won't even open. It flashes briefly on the dock then just disappears.
HELP PLEASE!There was nothing wrong with the software. All working perfectly fine UNTIL I installed iLife '08. Anyways, after googling various possibilities, I downloaded an application called OnYx, did a dust and clean and all is good! Thanks anyways for trying to help!
PS. My disk utilities didn't do the trick but this other thing did. -

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.
