Epson r1800 - 'Media not loaded correctly'

Hello All,
I'm having a lot of trouble with my Epson r1800 - I've searched around the internet a bit for solutions but so far haven't come up with anything. To start, I have updated the epson drivers and also tried Gutenprint drivers.
Basically, no matter what I try (including the standard nozzle checks etc...) I always get the message 'Media not loaded correctly'. Occasionally pages will feed through the printer, but they are blank and regardless I get the media not loaded correctly message. Does anybody have a workaround or solutions for this?
Thanks!
Gavin

Try using the following directions from a message from Epson. This corrected my problems with an Epson R1800 and Leopard.
Thank you for taking the time to contact Epson. It is my pleasure to
respond to your inquiry.
If your output is faint or if the driver settings and/or features are
missing, your system may have automatically added the printer using the
Gutenprint driver. Many Epson drivers are provided with Leopard but the
driver for your printer needs to be downloaded from the Epson website.
Determine Which Driver is Currently Being Used
1. Click on the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the Finder and open
System Preferences.
2. In the System Preferences window, click on Print & Fax.
3. In the list of printers on the left side of the Print & Fax window,
click once on your Epson printer to select it.
4. Check the name of the driver being used; it is displayed in the center
of the Print & Fax window next to “Kind”.
5. If the driver name displayed next to “Kind” is Gutenprint, the incorrect
driver is being used. Follow the steps in the next section to select the
correct driver.
Selecting the Correct Driver
1. Turn off the printer.
2. Delete the print queue and remove the printer from Print & Fax by
clicking on the minus button under the list of printers. Click OK to
confirm the removal.
3. Go to the Epson support website (www.epson.com/support).
4. Select your product model and download the driver for OS X 10.5 Leopard
operating system.
5. Double-click the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions
to install the printer driver.
6. Click on the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the Finder and open
System Preferences.

  • Epson printers keep giving "media not loaded correctly" error message

    When sending print jobs that consist of multiple copies to Epson printers from my dual 3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon Mac with OS 10.5.8, the printer will frequently (more than half the time) grab a sheet of paper and spit it out with nothing on it, and then return the error message "Media out or not loaded correctly". I've had the exact same issue with their 1280, 2400 and 2880 printers. I've been struggling with and troubleshooting this issue for a couple of months now, and I believe I've narrowed it down to the operating system. It happens when printing from both Photoshop CS3 and CS4. It doesn't happen when I print from another computer running OS 10.4.11.

    Interesting observation of the OSs. Have you tried Epson's suggestions for the 1280 printer and 2880 printer?
    BTW: This was a constant issue with my Epson 3000. It happened mostly with paper larger than tabloid size, which is the reason for having a large format printer. There was no difference between versions of the OS. This was with the paper tray, so it may not be relevant to your printers. However, when I first got the printer it came with some "cleaning sheets" to run thru the printer when changing different types of paper to clean the rollers. It seemed to help... What worked best was to pre-load the first sheet of a multiple page document.

  • Media out or not loaded correctly when attempting to print since iOS 7 upgrade?

    Since ios7 upgrade my mini gives me "media out or not loaded correctly" when attempting tp print to Epson r2400. Apple support directed me through a new setup. It worked for a few days and on it's own reverted back to the original problem.

  • How can I fix Facebook if the graphics and format do not load correctly?

    I've already tried disabling, enabling JavaScript. I've cleared my history and cookies. I've checked for malware. It still does not load correctly.

    Are you missing images?
    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    * Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
    * Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    * Check the exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions
    * Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • I don't believe firefox is the issue but for some reason pictures and certain websites will not load correctly. Why?

    ''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/810160]''
    This just started happening a few days ago. When I go to facebook the pictures are distorted and nearly impossible to discern who is in them. I also go to many different websites that do not load correctly. Not sure if it's java, adobe, or something else but it makes browsing the internet not fun. HELP!

    I have the same problem. It seems to be due to FireFox 4.0 being unable to load certain embedded content, which Firefox 3 was able to load properly.
    I've been having problems loading any website that includes embedded content from worldnow.com, for example.

  • Objects Not Loaded Correctly Error

    After I click OK my model opens up but I noticed that I can not change the precision on a column in one of my tables. This model is under Source Control and one of the other developers is missing the SubView where my table is that I am trying to modify so I think the problem is related.

    Hi,
    I noticed that I can not change the precision on a column in one of my tablesProbably that's a FK column.
    For the other problem - probably it's caused by merge conflict and you have in the file symbols <<<<<< >>>>>> and non valid XML elements. You can try to replace the content of the file manually using version from repository. There will be better processing of suche cases in next release.

  • Is anyone having problems with Firefox today? My websites are not loading correctly

    Firefox just isn't working right today. My home page (yahoo.com) will not load correctly, nor does a university site for a course that I am teaching online. I can do both of these if I use Internet Explorer.

    We've actually put together a troubleshooting section for [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/web-pages-dont-load website loading issues]. Have you had a chance to browse the documents there? If not, you should take a look. There is a lot of useful information.

  • Pages not loading correctly

    I am having trouble with certain webpages not loading correctly - even on this site. It appears incomplete. The problem is especially prevalent on Amazon. The page simply won't download fully- all the formatting if off to one side and the site is unresponsive. It is the same whether I use Safari, Firefox or Chrome. I have emptied my cache, reset cookies, but still the same. Any suggestions? I can't live without Amazon!

    Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security:
    If you are using a single computer: Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    (You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
    Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2296
    If your computer is part of a network: please refer to this page: http://www.opendns.com/start/bestpractices/#yournetwork and follow the advice given.
    You could also try these codes as well: 4.2.2.1 & 4.2.2.2
    If you use a Router, make sure it has the latest firmware installed.
    One reason for a slowness in page loading may be the 'DNS Pre-fetching' feature of Safari 5.x

  • Pages do not load correctly in Win8

    From time to time, when I go to a webpage, it will not load correctly. It will look as if the CSS file has not loaded. Gmail won't load at all; it gets stuck at the loading bar. I'm using Firefox 18, Windows 8 x64. The problem also happened with 17. It does not occur on any computer besides my Windows 8 machine.
    If I clear the cache of the last hour, the problem is fixed temporarily. If I ctrl-F5, the problem is fixed temporarily.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. I have deleted and created a brand new firefox profile. I have cleared all caches and cookies. I have used the "Reset Firefox" button under the Troubleshooting Information. None of these have fixed the problem.

    So far after about an hour of testing, Windows Safe Mode has resolved the problem. However, since I do not know the cause, I cannot intentionally cause the issue to crop up.
    I will say this: I already have Windows Defender and Firewall disabled during normal use.

  • My adobe acrobat forms do not load correctly. I have uptodate version of that software.

    I am an immigration attorney and have an online immigration program I use daily. Since the last upgrade of Firefox, the immigration forms (adobe acrobat) for my clients do not load correctly. I get a message that the forms may not display correctly with an option to open with a different viewer. The form opens correctly if I choose this option, but the form does not allow me to add and save information to the client's file so it is of no use to me. if this cannot be corrected I will stop using Firefox.

    It is loading at the top of the page instead of under it's

    It is working great under FF and Safari. *links removed
    Any help would be great. I tried an IE statement, but
    couldn't get it to work in the css. Probably user error.
    I found out if I fiddled with the margin numbers of the
    following css code that I could get the submenu to drop to it's
    spot in IE, but then it would also drop in FF too. What a pain. My
    menu is in a table if that makes any difference.

    margin: -5% 0 0 95%;
    z-index: 1020;
    I built a test spry menu from scratch and didn't change any
    of the css information and the submenu would still load at the top.
    Please, any help would be great. I really would hate to start

  • Web page not loading correctly

    This web page does not load correctly in Firefox but is okay in other browsers:
    http://forums.techguy.org/
    Can anyone help please?

    Hi, I don't think it's important to understand the results, it does us no good, other than to know they've made a mistake when designing that page, perhaps just a minor one that affects several thing after that, and that some Browsers can handle or figure out that error.
    A bit like I ask a browser to draw me a map of what's at 1st & James street, and there is no 1st & James, but there is a nearby 1st & Main street, & a 2nd & James, so one browser refuses to draw what's at 1st & James since there is nothing, another draws what's at 1st & Main street, & what's at 2nd & James, figuring that must be what's wanted.
    Bottom line, someone caring for that site needs to fix the error, or you can use a browser that handles that problem.
