Is it yet possible to print on an Epson 4880 from Photoshop CS5?

I am using an iMac with OS 10.10.1. I have done reinstalls of Photoshop CS5 and the Epson print drivers but Photoshop crashes whenever I attempt to print or adjust print settings.

Perhaps it time to get a PC

Printing high quality rasterized text from Photoshop CS5.1 to InDesign CS5.5

I’m planning on using Photoshop CS5.1 to modify preexisting music notation fonts (MusiSync and StaffClefPitchesEasy) for my own purposes. With that said, in order to make my modifications I have to rasterize the font. Once I’ve completed my alterations I plan to then place my new images into InDesign CS5.5 at the same image/ canvas size as I had created them in Photoshop. My question is: At what ppi should I create my Photoshop documents and what file type should I ‘save as’ to place in InDesign, so that my end result using InDesign, when printed buy a professional printing house, will look crisp and clean with no jagged edges, blur or pixilation? Also, I am using a mac running 10.5.8 and my Photoshop and ID documents are in greyscale. Thanks for your help.

Most of the musical notation fonts I have had to deal with are pretty restrictive as regards modifying fonts. Check with the source of the fonts.
Fontlab is the best. For easy changes, TypeTool (same company) might be OK. Least expensive but works great is Type 3.2 from CR8.
TypeTool (and Fontlab) will allow a better workflow between Illustrator and it because it can read the Adobe clipboard and so:
Open a particular character in TypeTool
Use the pointer tool to drag around all the nodes
Copy (ctrl+c)
Paste into Illustrator
Alter the character
Copy character in Illustrator
Delete the old character in Type Tool
Paste the new character from Illustrator.
Position the new character if needed (usually is)
Generate the new OTF or TT
Unload the present font
Load the new font
Pretty much that's it (off the top of my head, anyway).
Take care, Mike

Problem printing with Epson 3800 and Photoshop CS5

I came across a problem trying to print with my Epson 3800 in Photoshop CS5. I recently upgraded to Photoshop CS 5 (and Lightroom 3). I tried to print using my Epson 3800 with CS5 but could not adjust Print Settings, Color Mamagement, Paper Configuration, Expand Border because those options are unavailable and there is a line crossing through them. I get a message that says "The bundle 'Print Setting' could not be loaded because it does not contain a version for the current architecture". It then says to contact the creator listed here for the latest version: PrintSetting version 3.57, Copyright SEIKO EPSON CRP 2001-2006. I can print through Photoshop CS4 as usual, but CS5 is a problem. I haven't tried printing though Lightroom 3 yet, and have not typically used Lightroom to print, but I wonder if that will be a problem too?
Any help will be appreciated.

If you run CS5 or LR as a 32bit application you will have all these option available to you. You can then save these options as presets that can then be applied when you are running the applications in 64bit mode even if you can not access them individually.
Also you might want to check Epson's download site especially the European site to see if there are newer drivers or updates for your printer. The newest drivers for other printers like the 7600/9600 support application running in 64bit mode.

Print DVD on Pro 100 from Photoshop

I can't figure out how to print directly to a DVD from Photoshop.
I can print with no problem from the Easy Photoprint app, I send the job and after a while the yellow light starts blinking like it needs paper. So I insert the disk tray and press the feed button and it prints no problem.
However, when I print from Photoshop, I select "Disk tray K" as the paper size, send the job, and the light starts blinking, just like before. But when I press the feed button, it stops for a couple seconds and then starts blinking again.
I'm having to save the file as a .jpg and bring it into Easy Photoprint, which is a real pain. Is there some trick to getting DVDs printed directly in Photoshop?

There will be no message to load the disk tray from PS. That is why I suggested he stay with the free included software.
I suspect that warning is to not try and load the disk tray while the printer is readying itself for printing.
As this is the first statement in the manual;
Placing a Printable Disc
To print onto a printable disc, place it on the disc tray supplied with the printer, then insert it into the printer.
My quote was, "Not after you send the job from PS." I have not tried to print a DVD from PS but I have done many from Easy Photo Print EX. It may not even be possible.
However, you cited a good point, better to be cautious.

When I try to print an jpeg or png from Photoshop all it does is convert the image to a PDF & plop it on my desktop- it won't print the image. Any suggestions as to how to fix this?

Yes, the printer is on, it’s selected in Printer Set-Up & I’ve never had this problem before. It’s definitely a Photoshop issue as every other type of file prints fine. I’ve uninstalled Pshop & am now reinstalling. Hope that will do the trick.

Printing to two Epson R800s from the same computer

I just posed this question to Epson and they didn't have a clue:
Can you print to two Epson R800 printers simultaneously from one computer? I do this all the time with my 7600 and 1280 which are both USB. Now I need to do the same with two R800s (Firewire and USB ports). The problem is that one printer doesn't print fast enough to get my printing jobs done on time and would rather just have to buy another printer, rather than a printer and computer. Possible if I used two different drivers, such as the Standard driver and the Borderless driver?

Hello,
I have just tested in IE 6.0.something, and have proved that it generated different CFID CFTOKEN's each time the browser was opened.
other version don't.
originally the app was developed against IE 6.0.
I am currently re-developing the system to use URL variables instead.
Thanks all for providing insight.

Print settings for Epson 4880 Stylus Pro - confusing

Am running LR 1.3 on a PC, Dual-Core, etc.etc. Last week I installed 1.3 and my new Epson 4880 Stylus Pro. Previously, with 1.2 I had been printing with an Epson Stylus 2200 and had no problems.
The 4880 driver, which is the latest and only driver at this point, brings up print options that I find confusing. It may be just a matter of terminology, but when I use the settthe ings that I think are identical to Photoshop CS3 handling of printing, the image is way too dark. P'shop CS3 prints beautifully with the 4880, exactly what I see on my calibrated monitor.
I want to let the Adobe engine handle the printing in LR, yet when I set the 4880 print setting to "No Color Adjustment" and show the proper 4880 profile in the LR settings, the resulting print is too dark. When I set it to "ICM Advanced" and enter the monitor profile, the printer profile, and the Rendering Intent, everything prints beautifully. I thought these settings, the "ICM Advanced", handed everything off to the printer, which I don't want. Am I just confused about which settings lets the Adobe engine do things? I've read Evening's LR book and anything else I can find about the Print Module, but the 4880 driver is different enough from the 2200 to create confusion. Also, the PC and Mac drivers have some different options.
I think the 4880 driver is very similar to the 4800, so if any user can help, I'd appreciate your advice.

Because when you start a new thread someone inevitibly gets on you for not searching for an existing thread.
I have an HP 2509m monitor. There is no luminance setting but according to specs it's 300 nits. Brightness is set to 90. I can't find anywhere that will give me the cd/m2. I really don't think it's the monitor since my Epson R1900 does not have the same issue. I played with the settings some more and it seems color density is the only thing that make a noticable difference. I turned off color controls on the printer and used CS4 for color management. Set the ICM to the right printer and paper. That DID make a difference but not much - still very dark printout. And I'm not talking a little darker than what's on the screen - I'm talking black where it shoud be gray.
Here's the picture I'm having trouble with. This is reduced in quality so I could post it, but you can still see what I'm talking about. Note the building on the very bottom. To the right of that are some hills that are dark green and you can make out some of the detail of a road with parked cars along it. They're dark, but you can make them out. In the printout, pretty much everything except the building is black.

Can you see the green hills on your monitor?
I thought it might be the paper so I tried it with glossy instead of semigloss. Same result.

Can't Print to Epson Printers from Photoshop

Hey everyone - for some reason I am unable to print from Photoshop CS6 to two different Epson printers - an Epson 9800 and an Epson 7880. I have tried to print from three different computers (OS 10.6 and OS 10.8) and have also tried three different USB cables. Each time I get the same results - the computer acts like it sends the data to the printer, but the printer never prints anything. I am not getting any error messages. I am attepting to print a 3960x2160, 720 DPI RGB TIF image. I tried printing from Preview as a test but that didn't work either.
This is a new problem as I have been printing to these printers for years with no issues.
I have tried reinstalling drivers, turning the computer and printers on and off, cleared my caches and repaired permissions, but so far no luck.
However there is ONE situation in which I am able to print - if I save the image as PDF and print it from from Acrobat, specifically with "Acrobat Color Management" selected, it WILL print. If I try to print from Acrobat with "Printer Manages Colors" selected, it will not print.
This is really driving me mad and I would love to find a solution. Major thanks to anyone who can help!

Success! I have no idea what the issue here is but I tried printing a completely different file as a test, and lo, that file prints fine. The other file does not. Since the file I'm trying to print is a rasterized Illustrator file, I just rasterized it again so I'm working with a new file, and it prints! I am so pleased.

Problem printing from Photoshop CS5.1 to Canon Pixma MX870

I downloaded most recent printer driver from Canon for my MX870 and with help from canon support I deleted previous printers in my computer and added in the new one. Also repaired permissions.
Other adobe software will print (InDesign, Acrobat) but not photoshop. When I select print, I am getting the following message: "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents" After attempting once I can't even get to the print dialogue box as the print selection is grayed out.
I am not sure what to do to get past this.
I have a new imac running OSX 10.9.2.

I was testing other Imacs running the same photoshop CS5.1 with the new printer drivers from canon and it prints. They are running OSX10.6.8. My new computer is running 10.9.2 and it will not print from photoshop. Is the driver not compatible with the operating system? Is there something to try other than saying the driver is at fault. Do I complain to Canon to update their driver to work? What is a work around?
Thanks,

Problem Printing onto CDs from Photoshop CS5 - Canon MG6150 printer

I cannot find a solution to this problem anywhere!! I have a Canon Pixma MG6150 printer and have designed a CD/DVD label using Photoshop CS5. The proportions are all correct, when printed on paper from within Photoshop I can cut out the label and it fits my printable media perfectly.
The problem is printing directly onto the CD or DVD using the printer's CD print tray. I cannot get the alignement correct -- the label will only print halfway off the media or more, so only a small section of my label appears on the CD. I have tried various settings from within Photoshop's print options and none work.
How can I get my label design to print onto the DVD or CD? Any help is HUGELY appreciated.

Printing PDFs from Photoshop CS5 creates unworkable miniature files

I work on Photoshop CS5 files and print them to pdf all day long with no trouble, most of the time. Occasionally however I complete a file in Photoshop and print to pdf and the file outputs as some kind of completely unworkable miniature. Very small file that fits in a tiny corner of the canvas size it should occupy. Once this occurs I must reboot my computer 3-4 times before the print to pdf features returns to normal function. Today this happened on two separate computers almost simultaneously after I switched over from one to the other to get this job out and it occurred to me it might have been the actual file I was working with. Corrupt or something. The I tested some files that had worked in the past and they too went "miniature". When this happens I save as pdf just to get the job out. While this works, the saved pdf is always a much larger file than the printed pdf version, with completely similar resolution quality. I love my print pdf feature, but it seems to have developed a little occasional psychosis in version CS5 and I was wondering if anyone has a fix up their sleeve, or can tell me what setting I am accidentally activating to make the output so tiny. It's pretty frustrating.

Printing on epson cold press bright paper with Epson 2200 in Photoshop CS5

The printer is old. Epson chooses neither to support it, nor does it seem to have anyone in their tech support knowledgeable about paper profiles. The paper is the whitest of white, and a bit thicker and stiffer than any of the usual watercolor papers i have been using for years by the likes of Hannemuele and Arches. The profile that came with this paper is actually made for an Epson 3880 printer, I suspect because the 2200 is no longer supported by Epson.
Usually with any new unsupported paper, I'll experiment within the photoshop print and profile settings, and eventually jerryrig something that looks decent. However, this particular paper is quite expensive, so before I waste a bunch of it, I thought maybe someone on this forum could offer some advise. I have tried printing with it only once so far, using the Apple (1998) profile with Photoshop in charge of printing. The result was that it "almost" works, except the red or oranges won't print at all, and instead, they both print as yellow. I also noticed that the paper ran through the printer much too quickly, as if it wasn't printing all of it.
Immediately after this test, I ran my usual watercolor paper through the printer with the same settings. it printed true, AND, significantly, it took 3 times as long to get the paper all the way through the printer.
Can someone here offer me any guidance? My own next (blind) choice would be to try the Epson 3880 profile that's made for this 13X19 inch paper, and also let the printer control the colors. But what about all the other settings? blackpoint? colormetric? all that stuff. Any help is much appreciated.
One other thing. Even with this throw-away test print, i can tell that the EWpson cold press bright is something special. Both the detail and the color (those colors that were true) were very deep indeed.

Well, my Epson 2200 may be old but it normally does a fantastic job on any paper I throw at it—provided the target profile is accurate and tailored for your particular unit.
It's not clear to me who supplied the target profile you are using to print on that Epson Cold Press Bright Paper, but I'm unaware of of Epson ever having offered a target profile specifiocally for using that paper on the 2200.
Frankly, I never even attempt to use any given photographic paper on my 2200 for which I don't have a custom profile for that specific combination of paper, ink and exact printer model.
My advise is to have a professionally generated profile made by one of the several excellent commercial profiling services that send you one or more target images to print on your printer and then you sent them your prints for them to generate the specific profile by using the best available colorimeter.
Using a profile made for a different printer model borders on the absurd, in my opinion. The least I would accept is a standard profile made by the paper manufacturer on a range of units of that specific printer model, and I would still not be as comfortable as with a specific profile derived from target-image prints made for my particular 2200 unit.
The prices for this service vary widely from one service outfit to another one, and some are very reasonable (try Inkjetart<===click* for the $25 price range, for instance). In most instances, it can be considerably cheaper than the amount of wasted ink and paper from repeated and futile trial-and-error attempts to get an optimal print from your 2200.
* I have no connection to Inkjetart whatsoever,

Is it not possible to print the Excel generated reports from EBS!!

Is is true that the Excel generated by XML Publisher is not printable from Oracle Applications. Does the printers do not have drivers to understand EXCEL format (which from XML Publisher is XHTML not binary .xls.) So for printed output we should only use PDF ??
Please advice!!
Thanks.

Hi,
Actually the Excel format generated by XML Publisher is XHTML ... so the print process would need to convert XHTML to Postscript (similar to PDF being converted to Postscript by pdf2ps).
But you question is still valid... unfortunately I haven't tried it ... anyone else?

Is it possible to print a waveform graph programmatically from within Labview 7.1.1 Base Edition?

I would like to be able to print the results of a test from a Waveform Graph programmatically in a Labview 7.1.1 vi.

Hi
There is a way of doing it.
1. Create a sub-vi that will act as your report page.
2. You can then populate the Front Panel of this sub-vi with all the controls and decorations that you want to print. Make it look like a report page. The controls will need to attached to the connector pane so that you can pass the data into the sub-vi from you main vi for printing.
3. In the sub-vi, Go to File->Properties->Print Options and make sure that you check Automatically Print Front Panel every time VI completes execution.
4. Modify your Main VI so that it calls the "Print Report" sub vi that you have just created on demand e.g. in response to clicking a button.
5. Remember to include the Front Panel if you build this into an application using app builder. The builder will normally strip front panels from sub vi's.
Hope that helps
David
