Epson stylus sx235w and Mac OS 10.9

Why doesn't it work in the wifi mode?

Not sure if your all in one will connect automatically in Mavericks. My WF 3540 had to be manually set up to connect to my Airport hub. A pain, but I finially got all the info correctly entered.....If you can print via usb then you need to set up the wireless connection from the printer.

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.

How do I connect an Epson stylus SX235W to my iPad

I can connect to my laptop but cant get my iPod to connect with the Epson stylus SX235W to my iPad any help would be appreciated, I am a very new user with little IT experience

Your printer is not on the list of AirPrint devices, so you will need to visit the app store for an app from epson, or a third party app like print and share to reroute your print jobs thru your laptop.

Epson Stylus Pro and Epson Stylus Pro XL

Dear Friends,
I am looking for drivers for my two old Espon Printers "Stylus PRO" and "Stylus PRO XL".
Unfortunately, I did not found anything on Epson Web portal and into the good packet "GIMP Gutenprint".
On web is disponible just version for MAC OS 7 and MAC OS 9, but not for MAC OS X.
Anybody can suggest me how I can solve this issue?
Thank you guys for your help.

PS Those printed are connected on MAC with a Serial port>USB connector, that is going well on Windows Computer (PC well recognize the printers).

Hi there,
Will This Work With My Printer?
The original Epson Stylus Color and Stylus Pro should work. These are the original models of the series and have no other model number associated with them.

Also, have you tried one of the other Stylus Pro Drivers In Printer Setup Utility?

Epson Stylus D120 and Adobe Flash Player 9...

Hello, I have a new Epson Stylus D120 and use it in Linux FC8 and gutenprint installed. Now I try to print something of the following Web page: [sofiskonline.standaarduitgeverij.be] It is a Dutch web page, but that doesn't matter and you don't have to fill in something to test the problem. Pressing 3 times the most right under button <Volgende stap> (=Next Step) and one time <Bereken> (=Calculate) then on the last page you can print it pressing <Afdrukken> (=Print). And there is the problem: the printer print it very quickly with large line-feeds. The result is: a matrix of points for the coloured gray fields and the text is not readable. Info by pressing the right mouse button gives the info: Adobe Flash Player 9 Quality [v] High Quality. So I have installed: flash-plugin-9.0.115.0 Please what can be the reason of that bad print result? Printing an other page in Firefox with the Firefox Print Command gives a gut result. Greetings and many thanks for every tip. Gaston Verhulst.

Epson Stylus 9600 and ColorSync

Printing problem with Epson Stylus 9600 printer and Photoshop CS:
When I choose Print Settings from Media Type -menu for example, Glossy paper does not exist. When I choose Print with Preview from Photoshop, they do show up.
ColorSync Utility shows profiles are correctly installed (they show up under Installed ColorSync profiles). When I choose Registeted ColorSync devices in ColorSync Utility they do not show up.
The printer driver has been downloaded from EPSON web page, it is not the build-in GIMP-Print driver. I have tried to re-install it but without luck.
Any ideas why Epson driver behaves like this?

There is a good chance that if you downloaded from there site and it went to your desktop and you opened it it didn't work.
If you download from there site and it goes to your desktop you must Click on Mac HD and then Applications and then drag and drop it in The Epson Printer Setup folder before you open it.
Unless it downloads directly to the Epson Folder...Don

Epson stylus pro 4000 & Mac OSX & Photoshop CS6

Has anyone been able to produce acceptable prints using an Epson Stylus Pro 4000 on a MAC with OSX version 10.8.2 and Photoshop CS6? I have recently converted from Windows to MAC and made the jump from CS3 to CS6, so I have many moving parts. I have Colormunki and have calibrated the monitor and created a printer profile for my paper. My basic question is -- Am I missing certain settings or steps to correctly color manage and produce good prints, or do I need to buy a newer Epson printer because it is just not compatible with the MAC and latest photoshop?

Thanks Charles and Sir-Leto. I'm not using Colormunki. But I have been printing using Photoshop and choosing "Photoshop handles Colors" for many, many years with terrific results. As soon as I updated to OS 10.8, the colors were immediately off. The only way I have found to get the colors to print close to normal is to choose "printer handles colors" and print using "adobe RGB" under the color options. This option is not ideal, but its getting me a lot closer to my normal output. And other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Epson Stylus Pro and system resources. PowerMac G4 and iMac iSight

Originally in Mac Pro discussions
Hi Ned,
If I may, I would like to extend the discussion regarding Macs and large format printers.
At work we have a Stylus Pro 9000. On a G4 Power Mac 533Mhz/Panther/640MB RAM, the processing of jobs takes a very long time. On the iMac (G5 iSight/20"/stock 512MB RAM), it is about a third of the time in processing jobs.
Now I don't use this printer, but others are pulling their hair out to get jobs beyond the processing in the print queue. The jobs tend to cease. I have run some test jobs myself without any problems. The only difference I can see is that they are using custom sizes in the page setup where I have used set sizes i.e. A0. The other factor is that I think they have been trying very high quality output in terms of the settings they are using. (I'll add that my test runs are done when they are not in at work and vice-versa. This is a studio for artists/printmakers). I note that activity shows very little free RAM during the processing of jobs, more so on the iMac. I am wondering would adding an extra 512MB RAM improve the processing times. I am not sure if it will solve the not actually printing situation though?

I'll add that the Epson Stylus Pro printer is connected by Ethernet

Photoshop CS5 & Epson Stylus 3800 problem (Mac)

I am experiencing a frustrating problem with Adobe Photoshop CS5 and Epson Stylus Pro 3800 printer with a Mac.
Trying to print on H-M paper, using the appropriate settings (see below), I find that under "Print Settings" on the printer driver, all the "Fine Art paper" choices are greyed out.
Also, which may or may not be relevant, no matter what presets are selected, the parameters remain the same (i.e., it does not appear to be responding to a change of presets).
I am running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.4 on an Intel Core 2 Duo iMac. I have loaded the latest Epson driver, and reinstalled it after trashing the old /Library/Printers/EPSON folder.
Settings:
• Photoshop Manages Colors
• Document profile: HFA_Eps3800_MK_PhotoRag
• Printer Profile: HFA_Eps3800_MK_PhotoRag
• Intent: Relative Colorimetric
At this point I am baffled. Can anyone please help?

There are supposed to be Mac drivers and also Leopard beta drivers for the 3800.
There are too many Epson customers on Macs for them to not let the photo printers work with Macs.
P.S. I just Googled "Epson 3800 driver" and the first hit was the driver page. There are Mac drivers there, as there should be. *Did you scroll down past the Windows drivers* on that page? The Mac drivers are right there below the Windows drivers, just as they always are on the Epson site.

FIX for EPSON Print CD V2.02 - EPSON Stylus Photo R200 - MAC OS 10.5.9

I thought I'd post this ridiculously long info sheet on what finally got my R200 to work with EPSON Print CD and 10.5.8 just in case it might help someone else BEFORE they spend days searching for a solution.
Check the printer driver information in System Preferences, Print & Fax. If it says anything other than EPSON SP R200 Series, you’ve likely located the problem. My system showed the Gutenprint v5.1.3 and /or CUPS/+GIMP... I originally replaced the Gutenprint driver file with the CUPS... file thinking this would solve the Gutenprint driver problem. But, as I continued to look into what was going on, I think I found out that both driver files are actually considered Gutenprint driver files.
1. Select the hard drive where the operating system is located.
2. Select Library/Printers.
3. Select the Epson folder and delete it and then Empty Trash to make sure it’s gone.
4. Select Library/Preferences.
5. Select the Epson folder and delete any files that are there.
(Steps 4 & 5 might not be necessary, but I’m listing everything that I did.)
6. In System Preferences, select Printers and Fax. Control click in listing area and select Reset Printers.
7. Load the Leopard Installation CD and select Optional Installation.
8. Select Printers and select Epson. This will reload the printer drivers for all the EPSON printers that are included on the install CD.
9. Go back to the System Preferences, Printers and Fax window. Click on the + sign to add a printer.
10. There will likely be a listing with Printer Name as EPSON Stylus Photo R200, Kind as USB.
11. Click on an arrow in the Print Using: box and select EPSON SP R200 Series. The printer icon changed dramatically at this point, with a rainbow of colors on the document shown coming out of the printer.
Note: **Working within the Print & Fax app seems to be key to getting the settings corrected.** Someone else pointed out that they also found this necessary. However, I couldn’t get the proper “Print Using:” option to appear until I cleaned out the Library/Printers/Epson folder, “Reset Printers”, and reloaded the EPSON printer drivers from the Leopard installation CD.
I had previously done the “Reset Printers” and reloaded the printer files, but as was advised against in the post I mentioned, I selected the “More Printers” option. That’s where I found the EPSON Stylus Photo R200 listed with the CUPS+Gimp ... and the Gutenprint driver listing options. Selecting what appeared to be the Gutenprint alternate printer driver didn’t help at all. I’m not sure if the EPSON SP R200 driver file was missing from the original listing of printer drivers or if I just missed it. I certainly would have looked for it if I had known it was the one that’s needed.
12. Open the EPSON Print CD V2.02 app. Although I had already installed the Easy Print update, I got a message saying that the application needed the update to work. So, I reinstalled the Easy Print update.
13. After reinstalling the Easy Print update, I reselected Update Printer Information. Much to my amazement, I got a message and a progress indicator showing the Printer Information was being updated to reflect the EPSON Stylus Photo R200 printer.
14. When the Update Printer Information process had completed, I clicked on Print and suddenly found that I was able to choose Select Printer and pick the EPSON Stylus Photo R200 and CD/DVD wondrously appeared in the Media Type.
After this point, all the other instructions that are provided from EPSON seemed to work just fine.
Hopefully, there’s enough information in here somewhere that people with other operating systems and printers might at least be able to get a clue . . .

I dug around on the Epson site and found this which seemed to address the exact problem so they obviously know about it. Unfortunately even these rather drastic steps failed to solve the issue for me.

Epson Stylus 740 on Mac Mini with OS X 10.4

This is maybe a silly question...
I've tried to print photos from Photoshop CS2 on my old (OLD!) Epson Stylus 740 inkjet. It worked great on my previous computer (with OS 9.1) but every time I've tried to print from Photoshop from the new computer, it looks TERRRRRIBLE. It prints from Illustrator okay- it seems to handle solid colors well, but photos just look awful.
I looked on Epson's website, thinking maybe I just needed an updated/new driver that didn't come with the computer (since the printer is very old). On Epson's site, it didn't list anything for OSx, so I assumed the printer just wouldn't be compatible.
However, on the topic at the top of this forum is a link to compatible printers etc. and when I clicked that, my printer is listed.
Now I'm really confused- does that mean my printer is compatible? Or no?
When I put the disk in that came with the printer, it wanted to try to run OS9 on my computer- that makes me think it was not compatible with OSx as well.
Thanks for any help. I don't mind buying a new printer and was fully expecting to, but wanted to make sure I wasn't going to give away my old printer, when it might work just fine and I could save $100.

i didn't have an EPSON USB driver but there is one for the stylus 740. so i used that. there was also a gimp one which i tried. GIMP LOOKED HORRIBLE it made the picture REALLY dark and contrasty and terrible. the non-gimpified version was better, but the pic still *****, plain and simple. something isn't right.
the picture, at best, looks really muddy. it looks like grey is mixed in with everything and some shadows are really exaggerated.
i'm printing from photoshop- and on my HP Photo printer, this same picture (as a 4x6) comes out beautiful with wonderful color- so i know it isn't because the file itself is bad.
i'm about to either cry or drop kick this printer out of the house I thought there might be an easy solution to get it to work.

Epson Stylus CX 5400 Mac OS 10.3.9

I just wanted to post a solution I found through using Epson's phone support with the rest of the mac community. I had gotten myself extremely frustrated trying to get my computer to detect the drivers when I would open the Printer Utility.
I paid $9.95, which I thought wasn't bad, for the onphone support. The gentleman on the other end got the problem solved quickly, and this was how.
Download the epson10852.sea file from here : Link
Open your harddrive folder > library >and delete the "epson" folder.
Open and run the epson10852.sea file and follow the installer instructions.
Restart the computer.
Open printer Utility and under USB or Epson USB, you should then see the Epson CX 5400 and its installer. Click on the printer under the Product ID column and hit, "Add Printer".

Try some generic maintenance - Reset the Printing System:
OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
If that doesn't help, try a Safe Boot, which does some system repairs:
OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
(after boot is complete, just restart normally)

Epson Printer Profiles and Mac ColorSync

I have had a consistent problem with PS CS3 printing darker than my calibrated monitor despite everything that I do with softproofing etc. Interestingly, when I print the identical image from Lightroom 2.2, the paper print is a much better match to what I am seeing on the monitor. I am beginning to wonder whether the difference has anything to do with the way these programs interact with ColorSync on the Mac. I am using an Intel iMac running OSX 10.4.11 and print with an Epson 2200 using the custom Epson paper profiles available on Epson's website. In both the Lightroom 2.2 and the CS3 I leave ColorSync set to Standard and allow LR or PS to manage the printing (No Color Management); however, when I open the Mac ColorSync Utility and examine the printer profiles there, it is using the standard Epson profiles that came with the printer driver rather than the newer ones (e.g., SP2200 Luster_PK.icc rather than SP2200 Prem.Luster1440.icc). Could this "mismatch" of printer profiles be causing a different result in LR2.2 and Photoshop? Should I change the profile in ColorSync so that it points to the new profiles?
I'd appreciate anyone's help!!

Also try the Photodisc PDI target image download here
http://www.gballard.net/dl/PDI_TargetFolderONLY.zip
And remember:
The file (the document Source Space) is independent of Photoshop.
The Color Management System CMS, Photoshop, ONLY uses the monitor profile for one thing: To PROOF source file on the monitor (the monitor profile has zero to do with how the file prints).
The Color Management System CMS, Photoshop, ONLY uses the printer (target) profile Print Space for one thing: To PROOF source file on the paper (the printer profile Print Space has zero to do with how the file looks on the monitor).
In other words:
The printer can PROOF (print) the source file faithfully regardless of how right or wrong the monitor is set up, and
The monitor can PROOF (display) the source file faithfully regardless of how right or wrong the printer is set up.
COLORSYNC
Why/how are you using ColorSync in an Adobe-Epson print workflow?

Problems with Epson R2400 printer and Mac

I'm a photographer and I switched to an imac a while ago. When I tried out my Epson R2400 printer, it worked really awful, comparing to when I used it with PC. I still haven't managed to fix these prolems. The printer menu is diminished (less options, many inaccessible in grey), there are problems with print density, with color adjustment, what I see on my screen is not what I get on my print (a black and white photo in grayscale mode can appear almost light blue when printed), there are even alignment problems (centred photos appear closer to the left edge of the paper). And I don't have a clue why all this is happening. The printer driver I installed is apparently the latest one. So I don't know where to go from here. I have installed and I use the profiles of the specific papers I'm using, but the results are NASTY. Please help.

By the way, I have read the links under "More like this", but those threads don't seem to clarify my question. Originally I had installed my Epson driver from the original (old) Epson CD. When that didn't work I uninstalled and installed the newer Epson driver from the Epson's site. Doesn't work and the problems I'm having are the ones I mentioned above.

Adobe PSE 8 + Epson Stylus Photo PX710W - Cannot Get This Combo to Work

Hi All
Apologies for length of posting but I am really at the end of my tether with this. I should say that prints from this printer have not impressed me even from when I first received it about a month ago when I was printing from Epson Easyprint software. They looked washed out and not at all vibrant and I was using Epson inks and papers. However things got a whole lot worse when I started to use PSE8 which gave prints that were far darker than those on screen. Interestingly the best prints so far came from me simply inserting my SD card directly into the printer this morning but obviously that gives little-to-no control over manipulation.
So, if somebody could help me I would really appreciate it. Here are my latest settings:
Snow Leopard 10.6.4
Macbook Pro 2.66 GHz Intel Core Duo
Epson Stylus Photo PX710W
Adobe PSE 8 (Mac)
Note that I spent the whole of yesterday working on this to the stage where I uninstalled and reinstalled all of the Epson stuff. I also consulted the following link (and related links) and downloaded the latest Mac Updater from the Epson US site.
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10609503
My latest print driver from the Epson CD is showing as version 6.61
I also loaded Epson ICC profiles
I have calibrated my monitor using the Eye-One display 2.
When I print in PSE I am choosing:
Colour Settings: Always Optimise Colour for Computer Screens (I chose this because my photo file is showing as sRGB)
Colour Management:
Colour Handling: Photoshop Handles Colour (I disabled Printer Colour Management in another menu)
Image Space: sRGB IEC61966-2.1
Printer Profile: SPPXTX 810 710 Epson Glossy
Rendering Intent: Relative Colorimetric
I truly hope this is a case of user error on my part so all advice welcome. Or just let me know if oyu know of a better printer:)
Many thanks

I also had enough with Epson Stylus Photo PX710W... I am buying a new printer. I have tried everything to make it print from photoshop nice vivid colors, if you consider i am using a very well calibrated monitor special for video editing. i used also Dekke settings for Colors and are not even close to the original when printed and i can't seem to figure out whats the problem. I disabled printer color management and let photoshop handle it. I tried Adobe RGB, i tried Epson Standar bla bla bla... I searched the subject very deeply as to inform everybody before posting anything that i have no problem with my videos whatsoever. I have tried numerous settings (almost all photoshop could offer) and have consumed a lot of ink and printed thousands the same picture to compare the settings and wrote with a marker on it each times the combination of settings that i did. Not even close... I realized only one thing just to also let others know and get them out of trouble... Epson Stylus Photo PX710W + Mac = Disaster! Good for windows yes, but buying a Epson Stylus Photo PX710W for your Mac? FORGET IT! I'm throwing it to the waste bin or i will just give it away to someone for free.
