Epson stylus Photo 1400

Hi. I just replace my espon 1280 to 1400, running Mac OS X 10.5.8.
Original printing driver was working fine for about 10 pages of printing, then this morning, when I hit print, it shows up in Que., then 10 sec. later or so, disappeared, and show up in complete job without printing.
I just downloaded epson 13964 dmg software from epson site, and re-install it again, as well as re-started computer and printer.
still not working.
Does anyone have same issue and know any way to fix this issue? Thank you.

Hi. I just successfully printed a page of word document from MS word software. The problem I had listed below was from INDD running CS4.
Thank you!

  • HT1338 How do I get a driver for my Epson Stylus Photo 1400 so that it will run with Mountain LIon?  I tried "Software Update" and says "no update available"

    How do I get a driver for my Epson Stylus Photo 1400 so that it will run with Mountain LIon?  I tried "Software Update" and says "no update available".  I contacted Epson and was told all driver updates had to be obtained using "Software Update"?

    You will find the latest Epson drivers herehttp://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398.
    If you don't find a driver for your printer in the above, then install the Gutenprint drivers. It supports your model.

  • Upgraded to Mountain Lion and CS3, I am no longer able to access the correct dialog box for fine printing with Epson Stylus Photo 1400.

    I have recently upgraded my Mac OS to Mountain Lion, and am using Photoshop CS3 together with Lightroom 5. To my absolute horror, in either Adobe program I am no longer able to access the dialog box which allows me to choose paper type, size, and print quality when attempting to print on my Epson Stylus Photo 1400. An excruciating hour on the phone with largely unintelligible folks at Epson seemed to prove the problem lies with Adobe instead of Epson. I'd greatly appreciate whatever advice might be forthcoming from the Community.

    Well, this seemed to work.. can't believe it! After a year of messing with this!
    from Stevejones5
    "I found a way around this problem. GO to HD/Library/Printers/Epson/InkjetPrinter/ICCProfiles and you will find a file labeled Pro38.profiles. This is a package file. Control click on it and reveal contents. Then you can copy all the profiles and paste them into your Colorsync folder either in the HD/Library folder or your own Home folder/Library. Then the profiles will show up in Photoshop and Lightroom."
    Key, is to Control click on the printer to "Open contents". Then open Resource folder. Copy everything in it and then paste it into the "Colorsync" folder in your Library.  (Remember, to get to Library you have to hold the command key down for it to appear in "Go" Menu for Finder.
    Then I reinstalled printer driver from Apple, then rebooted computer, then plugged in printer. And VOILA-- I can now select Epson Premium Photo Paper Luster!

  • Photoshop CS3 with Epson Stylus Photo 1400 and Mac Leopard

    I have Adobe Photoshop CS3 and an Epson Stylus PHOTO 1400 printer and Mac OS X 10.5.4.
    When I print a photo it comes out with excessive ink which smears very easily and has lines in it. It only does it in Photoshop. When I print from any other program it comes out fine. I've seen reviews online where people have printed from Macs and photoshop onto the printer and it worked. I've already contacted Epson, but they said to contact Adobe. Does anybody have any advice?

    Forget Epson's useless tech support.
    What you describe is typical of improper printer profile or usage of non-Epson paper, especially paper with gloss. Have you profiled the printer/paper and are you using Epson paper (or other paper and profiles specifically recommended here for Epson photo-quality printers) properly selected?
    Like Ramón I am on 10.4.11, not 10.5.x, but I doubt if your described problem is due to the OS version.

  • /usr/libexec/cups/filter cgpdftoraster failed (Epson Stylus Photo 1400)

    10.5.2 appears to have added support for my printer when it is plugged in to my airport express - before I upgraded it did not work at all, now it works almost perfectly.
    However, when i try to print a book from aperture (Aperture 2.0 Trial), the printer bounces on the dock and the job says that it is working, then an error flashes up and disappears and then the status changes to "stopped".
    I managed to take a screenshot in the second that the error is displayed, and it is as follows:
    "/usr/libexec/cups/filter cgpdftoraster failed"
    I have not tried printing a book when the printer is directly plugged into my laptop yet, as this is the first time that I have ever tried - everything else seems to work perfectly (Printing photos / printing from Lightroom), but not printing this book.
    The printer is an Epson Stylus Photo 1400 (A3+), but it does not seem to be a printer problem - as it never tries to send the file to the printer, it breaks before it gets that far.
    Does anyone know why this is happening and have any suggestions about how to fix it?
    Thanks.

    I concur, Aperture 2.0.1 on OS X 10.5.2 was NOT able to print to the Epson Stylus Photo 1400, and resulted in an "/usr/libexec/cups/filter/cgpdftoraster failed" message at the print driver.
    Exporting the image from Aperture to Photoshop, and printing using Photoshop, printed effortlessly; I was even able to use "Super B" paper (13"x19") Sheet-Feeder Borderless with Ultra Premium Photo Paper Semi-Glossy.

  • Epson Stylus Photo 1400 detection problem

    Hi all,
    I have an Intel based iMac with 27 inches display and a Macbook. They are both running Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    I'm trying to install my Epson Stylus Photo 1400 printer on my iMac but having quite difficult times. I installed everything that came with the Epson installation CD. But I see the problem is beyond a driver issue because my iMac does not detect the printer at all.
    When I plugged the printer to my Macbook without even installing the drivers it automatically detected that a printer is plugged in. In the case of iMac however, I even updated Epson printer drivers from Apple Software Update page but it still behaves like nothing has been plugged in to any of the USB ports. I have four ports and I tried every one them by the way. The ports themselves are OK because I have an external disk and it works in all four ports.
    Have you ever came across with such an issue where iMac does not detect a plugged in USB printer.
    Thank you.

    be sure to UnCheck the 16-bit option in the Epson print dialogs (it is a known bug that causes dark, off-colr prints)
    try reviewing this CS6 Photoshop Manages Colors workflow
    and the troubleshooting tips there
    make sure you get a cean nozzel test pattern and are printing on the correct side of the paper...

  • Cannot add Epson stylus photo 1400 to printer list

    Hi,
    I just unpacked my new printer, however I don't seem to be able to install it properly. I have tried both the the driver from the website as well as the one that came with it on CD. First, installing seems to go smoothly. Then I get to a screen telling me that before I can print I will have to add it to the printer list. The next screen gives me the printer list with the Epson Stylus's name on it. However, clicking on it I am not able to select the proper device name. It just doesn't appear on the list. (click here for a screenshot: http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/8601/bild15zy6.png ) Finally, the Epson driver installation app tells me that my printer "has not been added to the printer list" and that I should better go back and try again. "Running a printer check" actually makes it draw paper in but doesn't print anyhow.
    Could someone help me with this?
    Thanks a lot.

    I now managed to install my printer. To state my problem first, so people don't have to read the whole thread again:
    My printer (this should be printer model independent) is connected directly via USB to my macbook. When I tried to add it to my printer list, I recieved the message "Error: -9672, An error occurred while trying to add the selected printer"
    As I gathered from the forums, this points to missing rights during installation. In a lucky guess, I logged onto my computer not with my usual account but with the admin account and from there I could install it without any problems!
    That is a bit strange as I should have been able to assign admin rights via entering the password from my usual account, but there you go. Strange are the ways of Apple (as with my most favourite mac problem/solution of all times: when you use the password reset feature from the install DVD, it uses an english keyboard layout, but in the standard log-in window it uses whatever the locale is set to, thus e.g. mixing z und y in German layout amongst others. This small misunderstanding cost me hours over christmas! Just thought I'd mention it in case anyone has similar trouble)
    I hope this helps,
    Otto

  • Epson Stylus Photo 1400 profiles missing after Snow Leopard!

    After installing Snow Leopard, I am no longer able to see the color profiles for my Epson 1400 printer in Adobe InDesign CS3 or Illustrator CS3. They do show up in Photoshop CS3 as well as Apple's Mail.app and Safari. But, they are most needed for the Adobe print programs.
    I found another post that explained how to open an Epson package and copy the files to the ColorSync folder. This did not help; but, I was able to copy the profiles to the Adobe Color folder. Now they show up in InDesign. Haven't tried printing, yet, to see if they work properly. That's next. But, Apple and Adobe and Epson should fix this so others do not have this problem.

    I've just upgraded from Leopard to SL on my 24in iMac.
    I have an Epson SP R800 and an Epson SP 1400. Using Epson drivers for SL the 800 printer runs several blank sheets through before printing the first page. The colours are terrible. I use Adobe CS3 suite (final output in inDesign) for my brochures and can no longer print them to any decent quality.
    With 1400 I just get an error mesage. I've tried the Gutenpress (or whatever it's called) alternative and while the 1400 prints with it the quality is atrocious. I've tried deleting and reinstalling the printers, resetting the lot and adding again, and no difference. I wish I had never switched from Leopard to be honest. SL may be slick (can't see any obvious benefits myself), but they could have developed it so that expensive printers still worked properly.
    It also will not support Filemaker 8.5 Pro or Word 2004 - why not? A very unsatisfactory development all round that has offered no benefit that I can see at all.
    If I reinstall Leopard and chuck SL in the bin would that be the best solution?

  • PSE 6 Crashes when trying to print to Epson Stylus Photo 1400

    Has anyone had an issue with PSE 6 crashing when trying to print a single photo from the Organizer?  I have tried to print photos directly from the Organizer and each time I do, the application crashes.  I can open the photo in the editor and print directly from the editor with no problems.  It's not the printer becuase I can print from other applications to the printer.  I can also print to my HP PSC 2355 with no issues. but for some reason, I cannot get the Organizer application to print to the Epson.  I have uninstalled the printer and reinstalled it.  I have checked to see if there are any updated drivers - there are none.  I'm running PSE 6 on Windows Vista 32-bit.  Any suggestions what else I can try?  I hate that I cannot print to my new printer!

    Try deselecting the print options "EXIF Print" and "Print Image Matching".   Unfortunately, the Search function of the new forums doesn't work yet for older messages, but I did find this thread cached by Google referring to a similar problem:

  • Epson Stylus Photo 1400 not working on 10.6.5

    I've done just about everything I've found online and both epson and apple are in denial of this situation. I'd been on the phone with apple to almost two hours and in the end they tell me that it's probably epson's drivers and that I need to contact them. Another 2 hours with epson pretty much saying I needed to contact apple.
    Is anyone else experiencing this? Whenever I print using word/photoshop or any other apps, I get nothing. My printer icon doesnt ever come up on the dock. Even when I open it manually I see that they werent added to my queue. If I try to print with Preview App, it tells me "Error While Printing"
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled drivers, remove and re added printer, I've checked and repaired disk permissions. What gives? Is it 10.6.5 causing this?

    So I went on and downloaded Print Therapy to see what is going on and here's what it found:

  • Epson Printer Driver Update 2.18 and Stylus Photo 1400

    My Mac Mini was unable to communicate with my Epson Stylus Photo 1400 printer, after installing the recent Epson Printer Driver Update 2.18. I am running Mac OS 10.7.5. Reinstalling the original driver from the Epson CD got me back on track, but, a test print from the installer did not work without additional software from Apple's servers. Avoid Update 2.18, if you are using similar equipment.

    Since updating to EPSON Printer Software Update 2.18, I have not been able to print to my EPSON Stylus DX6000 (under OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard).  The printer dialog box says
    Error:/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpll.app/Contents/ MacOs/rastertoescpll failed
    Using Time Machine, I restored rastertoescpll.app from a time before I upgraded to the 2.18 drivers, but that didn't work.  I then restored the entire EPSON folder from
    /Library/Printers/
    from a time before I upgraded to the 2.18 drivers, and that still didn't work. 
    I was not able to find the Update 2.17 on the Apple site, but I was able to find it on the www.techspot.com site. 
    I downloaded EPSON Printer Software Update 2.17 from
    http://www.techspot.com/drivers/driver/file/information/16158/
    This downloaded EPSONPrinterDrivers2.17.dmg
    I dragged the EPSON folder to the Trash, and emptied the Trash.  I then ran the installer for the 2.17 drivers.  After switching the printer off and on again, I was finally able to print.

  • Print quality on Epson Stylus Photo R800

    Hi...
    I'm using Lightroom 3.6 and an Epson Stylus Photo R800. This printer is capable of printing very high quality pictures, as I know by using it for almost 5 years.
    I have bought Lightroom about 6 month ago. I have tried anything I can think off to get those fabulus pictures out of my Epson printer. I alterd color managment settings, changed print resolutions, downloaded new printerdriver, ... Nothing works. Print quality when printing from Lightroom is very poor. Bad colors (dark), stripes over the whole image, it looks like nothing realy.
    One of the things that I noticed is that the maximum resolution for printing in LR is 720 ppi. My Epson is capable of 1550 ppi.
    I see a lot of discussion going about print quality with lightroom... I think however this is a more basic problem. My print qualiti is realy very very bad...
    Does anyone have similar problems or (even better) a hint to a solution?
    Note,
    When I export a picture to .jpg format (I shoot in RAW only), and print this directly from Windows, I do get the perfect picture a was used to... I cannot believe that Lightroom is unable to do the same.
    Thanks!
    Erik.

  • How can I remove vertical lines when printing from Aperture 3.2.2 to Epson Stylus Photo RX690?

    I have been generally quite happy with my access to and use of Aperture 3.2.2 (recently purchased) for import and manipulation of photos and movies, etc.I am using Aperture on a MacBook Pro OSX 10.6.8.
    However I have been unable to print high quality images on Epson premium glossy, glossy or matt paper on my Epson Stylus Photo RX690.
    High quality prints on screen show perfectly in preview, but all prints come out with good and accurate colours, but a series of vertical lines or bands of lines across the photo print.
    Using the Aperture Manual I have checked my settings in Aperture for the printer, for colour and quality of paper etc and they all seem to be correct.
    The Epson Printer is networked with a Toshiba (Vista) laptop which prints perfect results from Picasa and Photoshop with fine colour and no markings.
    I would appreciate any help please.
    Cam Opie

    Thank you Mark
    I thought I had done all the settings .....but no.
    I now have perfect prints. Easy when you know how!!!
    Cheers

  • Epson Stylus Photo R320 Won't show in OS 9.2.2 Chooser

    I just purchased an Epson Stylus Photo R320, primarily to print on CDs and DVDs. This fancy new inkjet replaced my dependable Epson C-86. My problem is that after installing the Epson printing software on my G5 2.0, I can print, as usual, great in 10.4.5, but now, not in OS9.2.2 anymore. The R320 icon shows up in the left side of the Chooser, but when I select it, nothing shows up on the right side. I really don't want to go back to my C-86 since it doesn't print on CD/DVD media and I still use some old OS9 software that still works great but now won't print. I've done all the little things one might expect (i.e., throw away prefs, reinstall OSX and OS9, reinstall only OS9, permissions, etc.) but to no avail. I even reinstalled the OSX software. Nothing.
    Any thoughts on this?

    Hello 64M,
    Is Chooser showing your USB bus or is it showing the default Modem or Printer port Setting?

  • Epson Stylus Photo R2400 won't print large pages?

    I recently upgraded to Mac OS X Leopard. I immediately had problems with printing to my Epson Stylus Photo R2400 as a print driver gutenprint had suddenly replace my Epson driver when going thu dialog to print. Called and Epson and they got me thru process of getting rid of the newly replaced gutenprint to an Epson driver. Problem is I can't print anything larger than an 8.5x11 page. The printer set up says and shows me that what I have set as an 11x17 or 13x19 is going to print. But all that prints on this large expensive paper is an area 8.5x8.5. No matter what I change in set up. Epson says they have done all they can do. (And I just found out last week they have replaced this printer with another printer). I have hundreds of dollars in newly purchased inks and I am wasting expensive paper.
    Also I had to remove the patch for OS leopard to get the printer to work in this diminished capacity.
    And my email signature disappeared. Can't get that back either.
    But printer is my biggest problem. Any suggestions how to get this printer to work with this new OS leopard and print large sizes? I have deadlines and hate to outsource the printing when I could easily do it in house.

    Well, you picked the very hardest way to do it, and as time goes on, you will probably discover many other things wrong with your system as well. You CANNOT go back to Tiger from Leopard via an archive and install; you have to wipe the drive and start over from scratch, and then transfer all your data over from a backup and reinstall most, if not all, of your applications so the right elements are in the right places. Even so you'll never get your system exactly back to where it was, unless you had a perfect bootable Tiger backup (via SuperDuper) and merely restored from that. Obviously whatever Leopard element that killed your printing capability is still on your frankenstein system of BOTH Tiger and Leopard parts.
    There are hundreds of posts on the issue of reverting to Tiger from Leopard, many quite detailed. So many things are changed from upgrading from one to the other that what you attempted (unless you completely wiped the drive and all your data) has always proven disastrous, which is why I highly recommended against it after reading hundreds of horror stories here.
    I suggest doing a search at downgrading from Leopard to Tiger, following those instructions if you can, and making the best of it. You'll find that springing the $200 for an external drive would have been a much better and easier solution, because it can come in very handy if you ever need to do any maintenance on your internal hard drive, or if some update or problems kill your internal drive and you can't even boot the system. Not to mention sooner or later always needing more storage capability, and even a drive for reliable backups.
    I would never dream of attempting a downgrade or needing to do it in the first place (having taken precautions as to never have to), so I can't give you any further advice than that.

Maybe you are looking for
