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.

iphoto won't print. I get the spinning wheel. Repaired disk thinks I have Epson...? I have HD and a Canon. Can you help me?

Go to the System/Printers & Scanners preference pane and remove the printerd that str there. Then add it back and try again. If that fails try what's discussed in this Apple document: OS X Yosemite: Reset the printing system

IPhoto won't print

This issue began a more major problem in which all of my wife's pictures disappeared. That's been solved, and the pictures are back. In order to keep that thread from becoming too long and complicated I'm reposting in this new thread the original problem.
A couple of days ago my wife did the automatic update to iPhoto 6.0.6. Following that it ceased printing on our Epson Stylus CX4200. Other programs print normally; it is only iPhoto that has a problem. I have downloaded all the latest drivers from Epson, but it hasn't helped. My own two computers also won't print from iPhoto, though I haven't updated their drivers.
I just identified that it will print 8.5 x 11 paper, but it won't print 4 x 6 photos.
iMac G4 + PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I didn't get any replies to this problem, but eventually I was able to figure out the fix. I'll post it here in case someone else runs into this problem.
The printer instruction manual (PDF file) explains how to delete the printer drivers and reinstall. It also explains how to delete and reinstall the program that controls the scanning function (that had also quit working). When I got through deleting and reinstalling everything worked again.
Downloading updated drivers from the company that made the printer often fixes this kind of problem, but not in this case. Reinstalling the older drivers that came with the printer did the trick.

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.

Iphoto will not print to Epson r2400

After downloading the most recent updates from Apple, I can no longer print from iphoto on my epson r2400 photo printer. I am running the latest drivers from the epson website but to no avail. I have even redownloaded the drivers and reinstalled them.
Whenever I try to print a picture the only things that happen is the printer begins to make noise like it is going to print and then I get a red exclamation point on the printer icon in the dock and a message saying "jobs stopped." Prior to this download everything worked fine in both iphoto and photoshop elements.
I also have an hp printer hooked up that I only use to print documents and it works fine. Any help someone could give me would be greatly appreciated.

sunseekr5:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions (and go Tigers!). Try removing the printer drivers with Printer Setup Utility and then reinstall them. If that doesn't help you can run Printer Setup Repair (available at VersionTracker.com) and see if that won't help.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

ILife won't Print to Epson PictureMate

I just love iPhoto, but I can't get it to print to my Epson PictureMate. The PictureMate prints from memoery cards and will print a nozzle check from the iMac, but it goes through the motions of printing then indicates that it is 'Stopped'.

Mac won't print to epson

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.

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?

Epson 740 Inkjet won't print from Epson Driver!

Hi All,
I've just recently upgraded to Tiger, from Jaguar, and all was well...until today! My colour printer is an Epson Stylus 740 and it was printing perfectly yesterday but now the all jobs are "Stopped"!
If I click on "Start Jobs" the progress bar appears then, after a couple of seconds, vanishes and I'm back to "Jobs Stopped" with the file still in the print queue. That's it! No other indication of a fault or problem.
I have now configured the printer via Gimp Print (V5.0.0) and it works fine. So the printer is ok but I'd like to use the Epson driver as I'm used to it and know how to get the results I want.
If this was OS 9 I'd suspect a corrupted file in the spool folder but, even though I've used OS X for years, I don't even know if there still is a spool folder! I certainly can't find one.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
John

There are tons of posts on similar problems in this forum. Do a search for stopped jobs and you'll see. There are a lot of suggested fixes, it sounds like some work for some people and not for others. Also, although it sounds like it's usually Epson printers, it's not always. And it's all different models. I have an Epson Stylus CX6600. I haven't had a chance to try all the fixes yet, but one that did work for a couple months for me was this:
Before printing, go into your application's "Page setup" option and make sure that the "Format for" says your printer and not "Any printer." I'm not sure why this works but it's even on the Epson tech support website in their troubleshooter. You will have to do this for every application and it quit working for me after I updated to 10.4.5, but maybe it could be a temporary fix for you as well.
Please post if you come up with a more permanent solution!

IPhoto won't print in portrait

When i select a portrait photo the preview on the right shows the correct orientation, but when i click print the full print preview (and then the printout) has turned to landscape trimming the top and bottom off the photo. This has only happened since Yosemite.

That means the problem is in your account. It could be a corrupted preference file other than iPhoto's that's interfering with the printing. Here's how to test for that:
Trouble Shooting Preferences
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If you're running Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
1 - close all applications.
2 - open your Home/Library folder and Option-drag (copy) the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
3 - select the contents of your Home/Library/Preferences folder and drag them into the Trash bin in the Dock. You will be asked to provide your Admin password.
4 - reboot. Be sure to know your account's username and password as you will be asked to log in with it.
5 - run the application again and determine if the problem(s) is fixed.
6 - If the problem is fixed:
A - open the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
B - Open the Preferences folder on the Desktop, select all of the contents and drag them into the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
C - When the Copy window pops up check the "Apply to All" check box and then click on the Don't Replace or Skip button.
D - reboot.
7 - If the problem is NOT fixed, drag the contents of the Preference folder on the Desktop into the Home/Library/Preference folder and replace the entire contents that were created by clicking on Replace.
8 - reboot and you're back as square one.
Note: keep the Preference folder on the desktop until you're sure all registration info for your apps are working. If not you can copy the required files from the desktop pref folder to the working one.
