Error when trying to print-Epson Stylus Photo R300-missing drivers

I just purchased I Life 06 and installed on my IMAC G5. The computer locked up after I tried to open an IDVD file and I had to shut off the power to shut it down. I started up the MAC and it got stuck on the printer install..I called tech support and they ran the repair disk and inserted the Epson CD that has the drivers on it and the mac says that the drivers are already there. I go to print utility and it shows the Epson printer but no drivers. Please help, the printer worked just fine before I installed I Life 06...Mac tech support said that it is an Epson issue.

Hello SoccerLover,
First of all, welcome to the Apple discussions.
When you got the Epson printer CD, that there is a un-installer on the CD. Run it an run Disk Utilities repair permissions.
After you finished do a Finder search to make sure that the un-installer worked perfectly.
Now try to re-install the Epson Printer again.
Let me know if so ...
Good luck ...

Can't print using Epson Stylus Photo R300

I am new to Mac ownership and have been having issues since updating to OS10.4.9. I have an Epson Stylus Photo R300 and have been using CUPS and Gimprint to print w/o a problem (OK, I had to call tech support and spent 10 hours getting it figured out) Now, for no reason my computer won't print again. I'm not sure what the issue is. Nothing has changed. I use a wireless print server connected to my wireless router. I've tried everything today. I'd removed all print drivers, CUPS and Gimprint and reinstalled. I've tried checking to see if the router has a different IP but nothing is working.
When I go to print the utility will spool the printing and then tell me the printer is busy and it will try again later.. then it times out. I've cleared the print history and jobs but still get the message. The only time I got anything close to printing was when I selected default browser, selected the wireless router but it chose Apple talk at the communication so I just got syntax stuff to print. Nothing in English.
So any help from ANYONE would be appreciative because Apple wasn't helpful when I called today.

Is there any reason why you're not using the standard Epson supported driver? It's available here

Help! Trying to re-install Driver for Epson Stylus Photo R300

My computer recently crashed and I had to do a system re-install. My system then updated to OS 10.4.8, I am on a 1.67 Power PC G4 Powerbook.
After re-installing everything my Epson Stylus Photo R300 is not working. I could not find the original disk so I went to the website and downloaded the installer which extracted into "epson11601.sea" . When I go to run this file the computer launches a program called Automator.
Pleaes help. I need to print some DVD's for work and I can't do this until I re-install the Epson Drivers, etc.
Thanks -Erik

installer which extracted into "epson11601.sea" .
When I go to run this file the computer launches a
program called Automator.
This is a problem with Stuffit Expander 11. Luckily the .sea file is still able to be used. Highlight the epson11601.sea file and do a GetInof (command-I) for it. There will be a section on what application to use to open the file. Change the application to "epson11601.sea". The .sea extension indicates that it is a Self Extracting Archive. It is indeed a small application that does the work of extracting the files in the archive.

FireFox keep saying "unexpected error" when trying to print web pages.

FireFox keep saying "unexpected error" when trying to print web pages. The print preview works OK, but when you try to print that "unexpected error" jumps up.
Please email me on what to do to get FireFox to work.
I don't see anything in the FAQ that might help me.

Hi,
Please also try this setting: Windows start menu or Control Panel > '''Devices and Printers''', right-click the printer > '''Printer properties''' > '''Advanced''', and select '''Start printing after the last page is spooled'''. In this case you can also close Firefox after spooling is over (usually much faster than direct printing), and printing will continue.
Also as a general case, if you have security software (antivirus, firewall etc.) installed, you can try deleting all existing instances of Firefox and its related processes/files in all the different configuration modules/areas of the security software like process monitoring, sub/spawned process control, virtualization, HIPS etc., in addition to the security software's main configuration panel. Instead create new fully allowed/trusted rules for Firefox + its related processes in all the different modules/panels - a genuine/original Firefox installer as well as all the installed EXEs (Application) and DLLs (Application extension) are digitally signed by Mozilla Corporation (right-click > Properties > Digital Signatures). Even otherwise, some security software may also ask again when Firefox and/or its sub processes are started, and you may be able to allow/trust at that time. Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firewalls this].

Why isn't my printer (epson stylus photo 820) working anymore??

HI,
I am having problems with my printer, an epson stylus photo 820. I have been using it for a long time, and suddenly for no reason, it refuses to print!
When I am trying to print something, in the stylus photo 820 dialogue box, it says "printing" under "status" but nothing happens for about 6-7 minutes. Then, the printer makes a noise and in the dialogue box it says "jobs stopped."
I have trying to reinstall the software that came with the printer, but it did not solve anything.
Thank you for your help.

You're Welcome highonthesound!
As I no longer have the Epson drivers installed, I'm not exactly sure how you can check which driver you currently are using.
If the procedure posted below doesn't work, the Epson may be dead. This worked for my Epson C86 whenever I encountered problems.
Change any C86 reference I may have missed editing, to your 820 model.
* Download the driver from Epson - 820, Printer Driver v1.8bAs
* Before moving the folder & files listed below, to a Temporary Epson Trash Folder, that you should create on the Desktop, open Printer Setup Utility, and delete the 820.
* Quit Printer Setup Utility
* Move the files (Posted in CAPITALIZED Italics), to the newly created Temporary Epson Trash Folder

I also had a Epson OS X booklet.pdf, that I had saved in my Documents folder. You will get a new one. After the installation, I replaced it. You may not have saved your original one. It's no big deal, there's really not much in it, In fact I don't remember the last time I opened it!
* Quit ALL running Applications
* Repair Permissions using Disk Utility in the Utilities folder
* Dig out your Epson 820 Start Here instruction quick sheet, for reference
* Unplug the USB cable from the Mac & then from the 820
* Re-attach the USB cable to the 820 & then to the Mac
* Turn on your 820
* Double click on: epson11518.sea.hqx to unzip (This may have a different name)
* Double click on: epson11518.sea to expand (As well as this one)
* Follow the prompts & instructions
* When the Vise installer opens in a window, double click it to start the install
* When the installation is complete, turn off the printer & restart your Mac.
* Repair Permisions again
* Turn on the 820
* Open Printer Setup Utility
* You have no printers available will appear. Click Add
* Select Epson USB in the contextual menu
* Click on Stylus 820 to highlight
* Add Page Setup: select All, from the contextual menu

I have an apple computer, and upgraded it, now I can't scan photo's from my Epson Stylus Photo TX650 printer.
I have an OSX version 10.9.5 computer
When I click on scan on my printer, I get this message ( " you can't use this version of the application "Epson Scan" with this version of OSX You have

Have you checked the Epson web site for an update?
Try using Applications/Image Capture.

I'm suddenly getting a "communication error" when trying to print

When trying to print a document from Pages, which I have done before, my computer is showing "communication error" in the printer window.

HI Larry,
You have helped me before i remember with a whole iphoto NiGhtMaRe!
As i said to leonie i have solved it by deleting all the previously saved photos and then it worked.
After which i formatted the card as per your suggestion and everything seems okay.
It was all overdue. Leaving that many photos on one card was stupid.
Anyway thanks all.

Printing from Elements 8 using Epson Stylus Photo R300

Help! I'm really quite useless at all this computer stuff, and my problem is slowly driving me mad!!! I am trying, unsuccessfully, to print from Elements 8 using an Espon Stylus Photo R300. However, I dont know what settings to use. I can get prints - but they dont represent what I see on the monitor. I have tried using Picasa and the representation on the print isnt too far removed from that on the monitor. iPhoto is slightly worse. Can anyone tell me in simple english what settings I need to use - I have seen other discussions on the same topic and think that color management should be done by the Elements 8 and not the printer? Any help would be very much appreciated - before I lose it all together

Hi Syd. I was out on the web and saw where you respond to a message about printing using R300 printer. If you can help me that would be great.. this is the message that I sent Jayne who was having a problem..
Hi Jayne,
Did you get you problem resolved. I am experiencing the same problem with with element 8 and Epson r300 printer. I tried both support groups Adobe wanted me to upgrade to element 9. and Epson gave me the phone running. I have taking the printer to a Epson service center and the printer is working fine. I have change the various options in the software and no sucess. I had one image that I only crop and it the colors came out wrong. Now if I don't touch the image and just print it the colors come out fine.. So please let me know if you got it resolved.

Borderless printing, Epson stylus photo 820

Ok, I'm trying to print this: http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=1716
On an Epson Stylus Photo 820. I know this printer can do borderless prints, I just can't figure out how. Is this a driver issue or something? Is borderless printing on this printer a PC only feature? Am I missing something entirely?
Thanks for any help!

I don't have experience with the Stylus Photo 820, but I do have a Stylus Photo 890 and unfortunately borderless printing is not possible in OS X, even with the latest drivers. I went round and round with this with Epson Tech Support, who kept sending me suggestions that didn't work and finally they admitted that it was just not possible. I doubt that Epson will further update the drivers for these rather elderly printers.

Rundll32 error when trying to print in colour, or trying to change/configure print settings.

Hey there,
I just got a new Windows 8.1 computer. I could print fine for a few days with my HP CP1215 in color. Then I changed it default to grayscale, and when I went to change it back, it told me the driver is not installed. I reinstalled the driver, and went to Properties, and it says RUNDLL32 ERROR.
Then it says the driver isn't installed.
And then I start all over again.
Please help.

Hi Divechickie,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I understand you are getting a error when trying to open the printer properties on Win 8.1 after reinstalling the printer driver. I will be happy to help you.
If you are using the Windows built in driver then I would download and run the HP Color Laserjet Plug and Play Package. HP Color LaserJet CP1215 Printer Drivers.
If that doesn't work you could do a system restore back to when everything was working properly.

Hope this resolves your issue.

Try using the pre installed Image Capture app in your Applications folder.
Connect the scanner to your Mac whether Wi-Fi or USB.
Launch Image Capture.
Click the very small black box bottom left side of the Image Capture window.
You'll see this pop up menu: Connecting this (device) opens:
You can select a default app to scan (Image Capture) and select a folder from the Imort To pop up menu on the right to save scanned files to.

Printing from iPhoto 08 on Printer Epson Stylus Photos Rx 500?

Up to before I purchase a new 20" Mac OSX 1.5 Leopard from Tiger X 1.4.9 I had no problems printing on my Epson Stylus Photo RX500, but, even after having a new driver for Epson,the printing is a "****", I no longer have, as before the ability to chose the quality of print which I desire, I mean the best rendition for subject which I photographed, like Portraits, I no longer can control the printing speed as I used to before (for qualities) and am left with photos with lines, no matter what I do. I wasted 2 sets of ink cartridges, and lots of papers to try to circumvent the problem, to no avail. Sometimes using mat paper works well, glossy no.
Cam I have some help ? Tanks.

I had the same problem. The new driver I downloaded never worked properly. I ended up buying a new printer. I still use my Epson to scan with no problem. I actually need a part for my Epson RX 500 if you'd be willing to part with your scanner lid for a price. [email protected]

Error WHen trying to print a crystal report

I am trying to print a system crystal report and it is giving me the following error: "Error during printing; ensure all parameters are defined". And it prints the first page, but none of the consecutive pages if there are more than 1. Is there some type of setting that needs to be set for printing?

Hmmmmm it says "page range" ALL. I was able to print fine until I created a new layout and saved it. THen I went to print it and got the error. But it seems I get the error when I print any crystal report in any DB. Is this a setting in crystal, SAP, or printer itself? I can print the second page if I toggle through to the second page on the crystal report view, and go to print, and put 2 next to pages feild. Otherwise it is set to print ALL, however it is not doing that.
