How do I get Epson printer to print on photo paper? See no option on iMac Works great on PC. printer/Mac new wireless printere.

I have a new iMac and new Epson WF-2540 wireless printer. I can print text, but my photo's are BAD. I do not see an option on the Mac to change the default paper to photo paper, I think would solve the problem. I don't see many options on the Mac like I have on the PC, shouldn't they be about the same? The printer works like a charm on my PC, what am I missing?

You might find the Epson software is not compatible with Mountain Lion in which case you will have to download Apple's own drivers/software. You will still be able to successfully print. Apple no longer support the powerpc/rosetta chip/driver so hence manufacturers own software cannot be downloaded. Does not stop you from printing !!!!!
As has already been mentioned, check your print options and there is an option to select your paper choice.

Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address. My other devices all have the correct address. How can I get the correct address for my iPhone? The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address. My other devices all have the correct address. How can I get the correct address for my iPhone? The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone (if you're using iOS 7), then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

How do I get my printer to work with my iPhone/ipad wirelessly

how do I get my printer epson workforce 610 wirless to work from my iphone/ipad? I downloaded the epson printer app.

Maryannebrabander,
Your comment " ... It was printing great until I did this upgrade." brought to mind a thought:
If you're ever in the SIlicon Valley area of California, specifically Mountain View, CA, I strongly recommend a visit to the Computer History Museum there. This page from the Museum website shows a Calcomp plotter advertisement from 1969:
http://www.computerhistory.org/revolution/mainframe-computers/7/161/689
My question to you is should the iPhone be able to print to the Calcomp plotter? If not, exactly how old would you have a printer (or plotter) be before you dropped support for it? If you ever do drop support, then that would occur at some discrete time - one day it would work, then something would be updated and it would no longer work.

How do I get my printer to match the colours of the image as I see it on screen?

How do I get my printer to match the colours of the image as I see it on screen? My HP Office Jet Pro L7680 printer tends to print my images with a bias towards red compared to the image I am seeing on screen with Lightroom 5 using a Mac with Retina 5 screen. Would appreciate any expertise on how to calibrate the printer to the screen

You have two options. The first method costs nothing but is not as accurate and the second means buying hardware and investing some time. The fastest way to get things closer is to download the color profile from the printer manufactures site for the printer and paper combination you are using. Install it on you Mac and relaunch LR. This is best when the paper and printer are both from the same company; in your case, HP. If the paper is not made by HP, you can often find profiles for your paper/printer by going to the paper maker's web site and doing a search for the appropriate profile.
The other alternative is to purchase a piece of hardware such as the ColorMonki which can be used to not only profile your monitor for color balance but also you printer/paper as well as your camera. When all of your devices agree on what color 118,118,118 means, you get the same color from capture to print but this is also an expensive option and there is a lot of time involved in building your own color profiles. The results however, are much more accurate.
Once you have a color profile installed, the next step involves doing soft proofing. Once you have your image looking the way you want it to in LR, open it in the soft proof option. This will show you how your print will look using the color profile for the paper/printer you are using. During the process, you will be shown the print on your screen which may look off. Use the small triangle in the upper-right corner of the histogram to turn on the out-of-gamut warning. This will highlight any parts of your image which contain colors your printer can't handle. Use the rendering intent options to decide how you want these colors handled (relative or perceptual). Check them both and use the one you like best. You can also make additional changes at this point if required before you generate the JPG image. Make sure to save it as a max quality JPG using the sRGP profile. Once saved, you can send this image to your printer or even to a lab as the process is the same.The attached link should get you to a video showing how to use the ColorMunki hardware/software but, more importantly, shows you how to prepare an image for printing (in this case, for a lab) using soft proofing with the color profile created (or downloaded).--Great Color from Your Lab Prints – Every Time! on Vimeo
