InDesign 3.0.1 "CS" won't print to Epson 2200 under Mac OS X 10.5.7

Since upgrading to Mac OS X 10.5.7 my old inDesign, version 3.0.1 in the original CS release, refuses to print. In the Print dialog box, Print Settings area, the Media Type and Ink options are grayed out. A message in the same Print Settings area tells me the ink cartridge combination has been changed and I should delete the printer from the Printer List in the (now defunct) Printer Setup Utility and add the printer again. Have deleted and re-added through the current Print & Fax panel, to no avail. This problem happens only with inDesign. Help!!

Problem solved! I should have checked this first .. downloaded a newer driver from Epson.

Won't print in color from my Mac or iPhoto to HP designjet 500ps

Won't print in color from my Mac or iPhoto to HP designjet 500ps

That is quite possible seeing that official drivers have not yet been released yet for Yosemite 10.10
Suggest you follow this site from time to time for when they are:

InDesign doc exported to PDF won't print

I'm experiencing issues with an exported PDF from InDesign. More specifically, when I export the InDesign doc to a PDF and try to print, I don't have any issues, nor does anyone else in my office, however some of the people that I'm sending the document to are experiencing trouble printing it. They get to 44% flattened and then the printing process slows down, and then once it reaches 50% they get a pop-up window saying that the document can't print and the whole thing stops. They can print the first page by just selecting that page, however the second page cannot be printed this way. I have re-exported the PDF several times and these folks having the issues have cleared their browser cache, re-downloaded the document, saved it to their desktop before opening, and tried renaming the document as well.
What's going on here, and what can I do or tell them to do to fix this?
Also, updating their Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat does not solve the problem.

Hi, I was just wondering if you got the problem resolved. I'm asking because we are experiencing kind of the same issue in our office. Our Marketing Manager is using Adobe InDesign and exports her documents to PDF. These PDFs won't print in any of our printers in the office. It spools and then gets stuck and it actually makes our HP Coloured Laser Printer throw an error (error 79) and we'll have to restart the printer due to this error. We can print other documents and other PDFs in the printer so we know it's not a printer driver issue. In fact, we have isolated the problem to only PDFs exported from InDesign. Even if we create a blank document from InDesign and export it to PDF it still won't print. Really odd. We would appreciate if you could share your solution if you were able to fix the issue. Thanks!!

Imac won't print to epson 1270

My imac won't print, stating that there is not enough RAM.
It is running 640mb, 100% of which is available to Photoshop.
This happens to both the 1270 and my R200. the OS is 10.3.9.
My ibook is more than happy to print to both printers despite only having 128mb of Ram!
Any ideas?
Thanks

You're Welcome Gari!
The driver on the disc may be outdated. Did you uninstall the older driver before trying to install the newer, downloaded one?
If nothing else resolves the problem, and you need help doing that, I can post the instructions.
"...stating that there is not enough RAM."
OS X uses Dynamic Memory Allocation, so I am puzzled that you are getting that message.
What is the exact error message?
How much of the RAM is original, and how much is added?
Is Classic running when you are trying to print?
Do the printers function from any applications, other than Photoshop?
You can also use Rember to test your RAM.
"My ibook is more than happy to print to both printers..."
Are you printing from Photoshop with the iBook?
Have you deleted the printers from the Printer List in Printer Setup Utility, and then re-added them?
Have you trashed the printer & Photoshop pref files from:
HD > Users > Your Account > Library > Preferences: HERE?
Sorry for all of the questions. I'm just trying to explore all of the possibilities, to get a better understanding of the situation.

Selective printing restriction in CS4 under Mac OS 10.8 (french edition)

I run CS4 under Mountain Lion for 2 months without problem .... until yesterday.
I can print on my Epson Stylus pro 3800 images with Premium Photo paper (A2 size in the auto sheet feeder ) without problem, but the same image can't be print with Epson Traditional Photo Paper (which must be place in the rear manual feed slot, one sheet a time).
I tried printing with this traditional Photo paper under Apple Preview: no problem!
The Epson support service told me then that it's not a problem of their new french driver (9.0.4). They say so that's a problem with Photoshop CS4 on Mac OS 10.8.
Do you think if I downgrade the Epson driver to the 8.6.4 version, it would be better?
The Adobe support service tell me, this morning, that's not shure to get better if I upgrade CS4 to CS6!!
Have you any experience of this problem?
Thanks a lot
Jacques Camborde Photographer France

I've no error message or nothing else.
The working bar is turning in the Epson window, with the message "sending data to the printer" (translated from french ! ;~)) and then, it suddently disapears without anything else !
I've just tried checking UltraSmooth Fine Art paper preset ans a sheet in the manual load slot: perfect: printing is possible!!
Computers are mysterious!!!

Cant print to epson 2200 at 100%

HI
I cant seem to print my document (PDF) to my desktop printer at 100%. Every time I print, it reduces the image by about 15%.
Page scaling = none.
i have tried many print options.
The paper is large enough to fit the entire image and also have a reasonable margin.
even the preview shows that should fit.
If I choose a smaller sized paper the preview will sow in grey the areas that wont print.
page setup is correct
set paper size and set to print using the epson 2200 driver
G4 powerbook
OS 10.4.1
Acrobat 7 pro
epson 2200 stylus photo

In order to get help you need to provide more detail about your settings. Perhaps the margins for the paper size you have chosen have print margins that leave a smaller print area than you think. In combination with this is there some sort of "scale to fit" set somewhere?
So what size paper are you printing to, and what is your document page size in Acrobat 7? I have the same printer and may be able to help if you provide more detail.

Color of prints to epson 2200 suddenly shifted.

I am running 10.4.11 and print to an Epson 2200 printer. I am pretty good on profiles and color management.
All of a sudden I am experiencing a color shift on some of my tried and true images. The images are darker and have a green shift and no vibrancy. I have cleaned heads, etc. and checked and rechecked the color management settings. Its like overnight something has changed. I have read posts elsewhere that Snow Leopard can exhibit this change but I am at a loss to explain what has happened. I have done a software update sometime in the last month.

I'm struggling with the same issue with my Epson CX5000 on 10.5.8. Photos are printing darker than they used to, especially in the blue/black colors. Flesh tones look good and sharpness is unchanged. Several black and white prints now have a sepia tint to them as well. Getting same results whether I print from iPhoto or Printshop Elements. Still scouring the net for a solution but I've eaten 3/4 of a cartridge set just trying to resolve this... not cheap at $60 a set.

Printing with Epson 2200 and Lightroom v1.3.1

Ever since installing Leopard and Lightroom v1.3.1 in my PowerMac G5, my Epson 2200 printer produces prints with a very significant magenta cast. Does anyone know of this problem or, better yet, does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thank you in advance.

I loaded file 11832 from epson us site. This driver v3.0aAs is for v10.4.4 - 10.4.x intel based macs. Even though it's not for leopard? I did this as nothing else work prior for LR. I also downloaded easyprint v3.1bA. I set it to managed by printer then hit print, at this point I set color sync on the pull down tab along with checking the rest of that printer menu such as paper type i.e. glossy profile and the mode to advanced print quality 1440 with the high speed box unchecked. The rendering intent is perceptual & print res at 360 dpi. The print output is at acceptable than most of what I had prior which was lack luster. I did base my start point for LR from the LR book by Scott Kelby. I think the output can be tweaked a bit which is my next endeavor. This did work so I hope that this help's.

LR3 wont print to Epson 3800 on Mac OSX 10.5.8

I have never been able to print through the print module ever since upgrading to LR3. I have an Epson 3800 on a MacPro running 10.5.8.
I have absolutely no problems printing through Photoshop CS5. Beautiful results! NOTHING from Lightroom: Very frustrated! Any help, suggestions
greatly appreciated! - Craig

What happens when you try to print, any error messages?
Have you tried printing in Draft Mode (check the box in the Print Job panel)?
What settings are you using to print with?
Both my Macs print to my 3800 perfectly, I am on 10.6.5 though - have you considered upgrading?

InDesign docs won't print on Epson CX 6600

Interesting problem. Computer is a "basketball" iMac 17" LCD G4 with OSX 10.3.9. Tried to print to an Epson CX6600 multifunction printer/scanner/copier, after the CX5200 died. Sending the 6600 any doc done in InDesign stalls to "Jobs Stopped" after spooling to the printer.
The 6600 prints fine from most every other app on my computer (MSWord, Internet browsers, Appleworks, PDFs, etc.) It even prints fine from the other parts of the Adobe CS suite, such as Photoshop, but not InDesign or Illustrator. All my InDesign docs printed fine on the previous CX5200, which was plug & play from the moment we brought it home. The same InDesign docs also print fine on our workhorse B/W HP printers, but we need to print in color now. We have added nothing new in the way of fonts, etc. Plus we've run Printer Setup Repair and other fix programs to insure all permissions were OK. One place on the Adobe site says it is basically a known problem with Illustrator and In Design on this Epson and several other models, and all they offer for the "fix" is to "make sure you print from the Adobe pull down file menu". Does that come under "duh?" or am I seriously missing something? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, Thanks
Also, Any suggestions on a good trouble-free color printer? Perhaps laser this time? Tried a Xerox 6120 and had nothing but continuous problems. Xerox tried but was of little or no help, but they did replace three of them before we threw in the towel. Thanks again!

It seems to be related to your printer, maybe it doesn't have a Postscript emulator. Test print a pdf to it.
Have you updated your printer drivers, Apple regularly has new downloads in its software support pages, and also been to Canon's website to see if there are any reported issues?

Mac won't print to epson

I can no longer print from my maac to my epson. By either USB connection or wifi. It just won't connect and all I did was move house.

Try to use this guide: Mac 101: Connect your printer (Mac OS X v10.5 or earlier)

PDF won't print to Epson 545

PDFs (Adobe Reader 10.1.4) will not print to my Epson 545 from my Mac (OS 10.6.8). Other apps print fine, only Adobe won't, and it provides a printer error "err number 13", which seems to mean there is no paper (there is paper tho' - lots). I've followed instructions from other threads for other Epson models but to no avail. Any one got a solution? Thanks.

Macbook won't print to epson DX4850

I my new macbook 2 weeks ago and am trying to hook up my Epson all-in-one 4850 printer.
Basically I can't seem to install a driver. I've lost the original cd...so tried to download from the epson website for my model and for my macs operating system. The file it downloads is .sit and when it expands through stuffit, it says its a microsoft word document , when its supposed to be an installer driver. When you click to open it, it just opens up my word application, but no document actually opens. I've tried opening it with installer but it ain't having it.
I called epson. The guy on the phone was using the same mac as me and when he downloaded the driver it worked fine. He said it was some setting on my mac that needs to be changed.
So I called apple, and they were hopeless- they said epson must not have the right driver and told me to call epson.
Any idea whats going on?!?!?
When I connect the printer the print center realises theres an epson DX4850 connected but then it asks me to choose a driver from its list, and there isn't one for my model.
Any one help?
cheers

I tried to figure out how to get drivers from Apple but their documentation is not very clear -- especially for someone new to Mac after decades of PC use. Finally I scratched that and called Epson. An hour and a half on the phone with Epson and finally it works again. Had to remove all the Epson files and then force the computer to find the drivers Apple had. I wish that the Apple articles would have been as clear on how to do this!
Thanks for the responses.

Iphoto won't print to Epson Photomate Delux

I can print to my Epson Photomate Delux using PREVIEW and from PHOTOSHOP, but NOT from iphoto. When I try to print from iphoto, the pics go on hold in the print box. I have tried to hit RESUME, but it just goes back on hold. One other thing, the pics that load from PS or PREVIEW show their names, but the ones that import from iphoto all say "untitled."
Why can't iphoto talk to my printer? It used to work (I haven't used the printer in several months). I've downloaded new drivers, restarted everything, blah, blah, blah...all to the same result. Any thoughts? I'm plugged in using a USB cable.
Thanks

One more thing, if the queue is stalled with multiple pics from different programs (PS, PREVIERW, ihphoto) printing will begin again after I delete the "untitled" pics from iphoto.
Thanks.
