Is CS5 extended compatible with Epson products? I cannot select printer settings.

I've had this problem for a very long time with multiple Epson printers. This problem only applies to Adobe products as other image editing software work fine. The printer settings button does not work in Photoshop so I cannot select paper type or any of the other settings. Adobe blame the problem on Epson and Epson blame the problem on Adobe but the bottom line is, I'm left holding the bag as I paid a lot of money for these products and they don't work together. At least Epson will answer the phone and try to help. Adobe do "NOTHING" for you! I've been on here before with this problem with my last Epson Printer. It was a Stylus Photo 1270 and I was told by some wise guy that "it was a 13 year old printer, what do I expect." Well I have a brand new Epson R 3000 and I have the same problem. I'm using CS5 Extended and have all the latest drivers. Here is a link talking about this problem but it doesn't give any solution that works for me: Print settings option unavailable in Print dialog box | Photoshop CS5. I've already done everything it says here! Typical of Adobe ducking their head in the sand! I can get the print settings on other applications like Preview (no problem) which Epson claim, proves the problem lies with Adobe. An Adobe tech. told me on here (last year) that the problem was with Epson as they have to write the driver software to the application (Photoshop), yet Epson claim that the problem is not in the driver but in the application itsalf. Adobe will just bury their head in the sand and act like nobody is home!
Really sick of this crap, neil.

Thanks for getting back to me Gene. I will give that a try if I continue to have problems, but I have found a workaround solution, or at least discovered a glitch. Like I said, when I click the "Print Settings..." button, it fails to open up a Print Settings window, so I have no way of choosing the paper etc.. However, If I switch it from "Photoshop Manages Colors" to "Printer Manages Colors" and then back again, I can then click the "Print Settings..." button and it will open up a Print Settings window (go figure?). If I were to guess I would put the blame on Adobe's printer interface, not the print drivers from Epson. Like I said, this problem has been haunting me for a while on numerous printers. It's intermittent so sometimes it works alright and I forget about it, then it comes back, but now I may have discovered a workaround.
Cheers, neil.

  • Is Photoshop CS5 Extended compatible with OS X Yosemite?

    Just wondering if I'll lose my PS if I update my OS. Thanks.

    Well it has a history of breaking CS5 installs and Adobe is still working out bugs with them.
    Hold off if you possibly can. Perhaps wait until 10.10.5

  • My MacBook died and my hard drive was removed, are my existing files only compatible with Apple products?

    My MacBook died and my hard drive was removed, are my existing files only compatible with Apple products? Are the files encrypted with Apple OS or am I able to import my files to Microsoft programs?

    The drive as a whole can’t be read on a PC without installing software such as MacDrive on it.
    The answer varies for individual document files; some file formats can be read by Windows software, while others can't.

  • Is Yosemite is compatible with CS6 products especially with the Design Std Suite and where to download the updates to Yosemite

    HI,
    I need to know if Yosemite is compatible with CS6 products especially with the Design Std Suite (PS,Acrobat,INDesign,Illustrator) and where to download the updates to Yosemite.
    I will appreciate your help

    CS6 applications are supported however I do not recommend that you install Yosemite on an existing system as an in place upgrade.
    You should deactivate the software, back up all of your data, and then proceed to do a clean install of the operating system.
    After that you can install your applications and restore your data.

  • Is Yosemite compatible with Kodak production planning and workflow software like Prinergy Workflow?

    Is the new OS 10.10 system compatible with Kodak production planning and workflow software? like Prinergy Workflow (incl. the Workshop and Workspace user interfaces as well as the ColorFlow and Preps Client) and Prinergy Evo Client,

    Steven,
    Thank you for your quick reply and information there in. The video is very nice too. Great angles and composition.
    So I guess, I'm going to have swap my drive and re-install my OS when the machine arrives.
    I'm not going to be able to capture directly to my desktop (due to poratability reasons). So is there I way in Premire CS3 to uncompress the HDV from the camera and store it in my HDD in uncompressed format? I don't mind having to do this extra step each time if the post production experience is going to be better.
    I've heard a lot about Aspect HD from you and others here as well as other forums. I'm not very video savvy yet and don't understand a lot of the vocabulary used :). I've been to their website and don't get what their products are supposed to give me either (I guess their audience understands exactly what they are saying).
    What I do get is it decompresses the MPEG 2 to saves it to yout HDD for editing purposes. However, I would have thought the Premier Pro CS3 would have that capability as part of the product, no?
    I'd also like to use footage that is not HDV as well as photos/images (composits) but still retain the final cut to be HDV quality. Is this possible and if so, what does it do to the editing experience/performance?
    Will I be able to output the final cut back to my camera's Mini DV tape (without having to buy Aspect HD)?

  • Is i mac OS 10.5.8 compatible with hp office jet pro 8615e printer

    can an imac osx 10.5.8 be compatible with an hpofficejet pro 8615 e printer?

    Hi @dennisbriggs 
    I understand you have 10.5 and are trying to use the HP Officejet 8615 . The only suggestion I can make will not likely be ideal, but you could email anything you want to print from the computer to the printer.
    Each HP ePrint-enabled printer, such as the 8615 , has its own unique email address. After you enable HP ePrint on your HP ePrint-enabled printer, you can print from your mobile or network-connected device by sending an email to your HP printer's email address. With HP ePrint, you can print from anywhere, at any time. If you can send an email, you can use HP ePrint.
    This blurb, and more information, can be found in the following HP Document, ePrint Product Specifications.
    As mentioned. This is likely not ideal, it really depends on how much printing you plan to do. If this is practical for you as a work around then mission accomplished, we found a solution, if not....  The only other options would be to consider taking the printer back and getting a different model that is compatible with 10.5, or upgrading the OS if that Mac can allow for an upgrade to 10.6
    I know you'd rather not upgrade, but you might consider treating yourself, there are some nice new shiney Macs available. 
    What ever you decide, if you would like additional assistance, feel free to post back as I am happy to help.
    I hope my recommendations resolve your inquiry.

  • This application is not compatible with your device and cannot be loaded

    Hi,
    I have been trying to load an application to my BB 9000 since a monday and getting this error "This application is not compatible with your device and cannot be loaded".
    As evident, I am new to BlackBerry development and got to port an existing J2ME project on BB 9000.
    To load application I am using  
    - BB Dektop software 5 (latest)
    - BB Device Software 4.6 is installed (which is the version of BB 9000 as well)
    I am able to load sample JDE 4.6 applications but I build my project through same JDE and through eclipse (JDE compoment 4.6.0.19) as well but couldn't load it,
    I even signed my app since I am using net.rim.device.api.servicebook api which requries signing.
    Can someone please explain me
    1) why this error occurs in first place 
    2) how to setup right envioroment to load an application on a given BB handset (BB 9000 vodafon India to be specific)
    3) How would manage this process on a single machine if I have 4-5 different BB handsets.
    I shall be thanful for any logical pointer to solution to these problems.  

    Hi,
    The main problem with your genrated ALX file. I think in your ALX file contains <fileset Java="1.49" _blackberryVersion="[5.0.0)"> TAG  and remove the  _blackberryVersion attribute. Then it will work.
    So your final ALX file contains
    <loader version="1.0">
        <application id="App">
            <name >
                App1
            </name>
            <description >
            </description>
            <version >
                1.0.0
            </version>
            <vendor >
                Vim
            </vendor>
            <copyright >

        </application>
    </loader>
    Even thought it is not installed then make sure that your application may not delete from your device. Select the application and click on delete button in Desktop manager.
    Still u didnt slove the problem  then insted of
     <directory >
                    5.0.0
        </directory>
    replace as

  • Problem with Epson 2400. No color management settings

    All of a sudden when I try to print from Aperture (or Photoshop) and I select "Print Settings," the window that opens only shows Printer and Presets. There is no third menu for Color Management or Print Settings — which are crucial to my printing.
    I have downloaded and installed the latest Epson driver for Leopard. Still I can't get the full menus.
    (No trouble on G4 PB with Tiger)
    I would deeply appreciate any assistance in solving this problem .
    Thanks, Susan

    Hi Susan,
    Yea, I'm having the same problem. All of a sudden I can't get the printer settings button to work to get through to colour management and advanced print settings. It means I can't set up new pre sets. Only happened in the last few days???

  • Photoshop CS5 crashes when selecting print settings in print dialog box

    I work on a Mac Pro desktop with OS 10.6.4. Photoshop CS5 crashes every time I try to select "print settings" in the print dialog box. I work in a large office and our networked color printer is a Konica Minolta bizhub C451. In fact, if I hit "print" it will crash whether or not I hit "print settings" first. In CS4, there was a separate menu item that allowed you to change printer settings before going into the print dialog box. That choice is gone now, you have to select it through the print dialog box.
    This is the only way I can print out color proofs for my clients. Unfortunately, I do not have administrator rights to any printer (our office has about 100 people, only IT staff can fiddle with that). What can I do to get this solved?

    I think I have fixed it, though I'm not sure why this worked.
    System Preferences>Print & Fax. Selected the Konica Minolta printer (the B/W printer was working fine). Changed the name. Still didn't fix it. Went back selected my newly named Konica Minolta then "Open Print Queue" (like Dave said)>print settings. Change the driver to "Generic Postscript printer." I could print, but only on letter-size paper, no other options available (need tabloid). Went back to system preferences>print & fax>Konica Minolta2>open print queue>drivers then I reselected the updated printer drivers--the same one that hasn't been working.
    Now, it works.
    Thanks all for the helpful advice!

  • I just upgraded my iPad to ios6. Now my Epson iPrint crashes all the time. I called Epson and they had no answer...said to use AirPrint instead. But AirPrint stinks because you cannot change printer settings. Anybody know how to make iPrint work on ios6?

    Anybody know how to make Epson iPrint work on ios6? Epson told me to use AirPrint, which stinks because you cannot change printer settings.

    Epson needs an update to their app to support ios6. I'm sure they will in time.
    Try deleting it and re download it. If that doesn't work, it's what I said above. :(

  • Is acrobat 9 pro extended compatible with windows 8.1

    When switched to Windows 8.1. I loosed my PDF printer and a few more issues came in.
    I wonder if Acrobat 9 Pro Extended is not compatible with W 8.1. ????

    Only AA XI is certified for use with Win 8.1. That being said, you may still be able to run AA 9 on the new system. However, the updates are likely critical to proper operation, particularly with a 64-bit processor. If you have OFFICE 2010 or newer, you will only be able to print to the Adobe PDF printer. The only full way to find out is to try it, but the updates may be the answer to your printer problem. I thought that AcroTray and the print driver worked in AA 8.1, but have not tried it myself.
