Issues printing from Epson R2400.

I ran Aperture 2.1.2 with an Epson Stylus R2400 printer. I have used this setup without problems in the past. Yet, a few days ago I updated the Epson driver to version x.x (download file from Epson epson12491.dmg). Since then I have not been able to print.
*Detailed issue*: when I print, the information leaves Aperture and makes it to the queue. It promptly leaves the queue and it never makes it to the printer. The printer show no sign if having received the information (no blinking green light).
*Additional Information*:
(1) I can get it to print from Text Edit, but not from Aperture.
(2) I tried from both computers (Mac Pro and Mac Book Pro, with the same results.
(3) I have deleted all printers and reset print information.
(4) I was successful printing with the prior version (yes.. I know! I wonder why I updated!).
(5) I can print from both computer to other printes (both from within Aperture and from other applications).
(6) I have tried printing through Firewire directly attached to computer, USB in same conditions and USB through Apple Router. In the past I could print from any if these scenarios.
I called Epson, and as soon as I was able to print from another app, they disengaged. Any suggestions will be gladly appreciated. Thanks SO much. Martin.

I can suggest reverting to your older Epson print driver.
You have to uninstall the printer driver, by running the Epson installer and choosing uninstall.
Then Install your original printer driver, you should have the original Epson CD.

  • Photoshop CS3 crashes when I try to print from Epson R2400

    Hi,
    For no reason that I can see, when I try to print from my Epson R2400, Photoshop CS3 crashes.
    It was working fine up to yesterday with no issues.
    I have re installed the drivers etc but no use.
    I also cannot choose Printer Manages Colors, as it is now greyed out.
    When the the Printer dialogue opens and I click on the Page Set up I get the Error that "Photoshop CS3 has encountered a problem and needs to close"
    Any ideas please?

    Thanks for the replies.
    I understand now that the procedure is probably the reason.
    I was just experimenting as LAB colours are colours we see through our eyes, while RGB, CMYK etc are "computer" colours and so I use LAB colours a lot, before switching back to RGB.
    I normally switch to LAB mode and click on the Lightness channel, then play with adjustments of that channel. This time I decided to mess around and see what would happen if I removed all channels except the Lightness one....
    Converting to greyscale for me is not enough unfortunately and LAB B+W provides much better contrast and tone than hitting CTRL+Shift+U to greyscale.
    Again, I understand what you say, my point being though that Photoshop should not crash because I incorrectly remove the channels, perhaps a warning to tell me I can't do it would be better.
    I'll pass this onto Adobe anyway.
    cheers

  • Failed to issue print from win7 laptop to Canon MP230 which is connected to mac mini os x 10.8.3

    HI
    I have recently bought a Canon MP230 printer and connected to my Mac Mini 10.8.3 usb port.
    To setup the printer I downloaded the latest driver from canon web site and install all of them
    When I issue print from my mac mini it works fine.
    Next step was to issue print from Windows 7 laptop .
    To do that I intalled Bonjoure in my Windows 7 latpot and set the printer connected to MAc Mini as default printer.
    Upto this point every thing works fine.
    When I tried to issue print from my Windows 7 laptop the printer gets activated the power button start blinking . But it just pass a page from
    input tray to out tary without printing  a single line. I have looked into cups server page at my mac mini. It shows that the job fired from windows
    laptop was done.
    I treid a lot debug it myself . But no luck yet.
    Please help me. I am very upset.
    Thanks

    I just updated to 10.8.3 today, and my computer and Apple TV won't even recognize each other now.  I have absolutely no advice, but wanted to throw this in so you (and Apple) know you're not the only one. 

  • Peachtree Classic 12 Issues printing from PDQ

    This is a long-shot but I am looking to see if anyone has any knowledge of Peachtree Classic 12. We have a user that does accounting through Peachtree Classic 12 which resides on a Windows 2000 VM running on VMWare Workstation 11. Every so often she has issues printing from the PDQ module it where it will either not print at all or print in a way that data doesn't fit on the page and gets cut off. Usually we can get it to print again by messing with port settings, power cycling the printer, etc. but what I am stuck on right now is getting it to fit all the data on one page. There is something in the PDQ Printer setup about compression codes and setup codes but I am not sure where to find the correct codes that will compress the data output so that it fits on one page. Any help would be appreciated.

    I had a similar issue. Are the fonts on the pages the same or do they differ?
    My issue was a font, check that.

  • Printing to Epson R2400 - Lightroom 1.3 vs Photoshop CS2

    I'm printing a fair amount of B&W images in Lightroom using Velvet Fine Art paper and Advanced B&W Management in the Epson printer driver. As instructed by Epson, the printer setting in Lightroom is "Managed by Printer", which should be correct, right, except that my printed images are coming out a little darker than my calibrated monitor suggests they should be.
    Epson technical support said that some users are having difficulty printing from Lightroom to the R2400, and suggested that I try printing from Photoshop instead. So, using the same settings in Photoshop, and reprinting the image, I did notice a difference.
    I'm wondering, are there any printing issues between Lightroom 1.3 and the Epson R2400 at this point in time. If not, why would the same image come out differently in Photoshop if the same printer settings are being used?

  • How do I get CS6 to not distort color when using Lion and printing from Epson R2880?

    Ever since I up-graded to CS5 , the color has been distorted.  It is not an Epson Lion problem because printing from preview or iPhoto the color is perfect.
    Adobe has known about this problem since January 23, 2012.  Their help people have taken over my computer for hours at a time and not been able to discover the source of the problem
    I thought they might have fixed it with CS6 but no luck  I chose use CS4 settings because CS4 had worked.
    I printed using Printer Manages Color and color matching, epson color.  I selected the correct media.  The prints came out dark.  The yellows turned green and the greens turned blue/green, reds became dull and blues a bit dark.
    This is most upsetting because I cannot afford to buy a new printer and ink.  Also I should not have to buy new equipment because Adobe cannot make their product work correctly.

    If the printer prints colors accurately from Lion apps,which it does, then the problem is in Adobe.
    Uh...ok...then the REST of the FREE world is going down the tubes because obviously, Adobe has screwed up?
    Some of us are using LR4 and CS6 to print and getting accurate and excellent results with Lion (10.7.3) so the question begging for an answer is why can't you?
    Read very carefully what Chris wrote...the odds are REAL GOOD you are NOT using the correct settings...but since you don't bother to show or explain the EXACT settings you are using when printing, we'll never know. Will we?
    If the vast magority of the user base is NOT having an issue, to what do you attribute the disconnect? User Error is the single most likely result...
    You want help? Or do you want to argue?
    I know a little bit about printing and I seem to be able to print with zero issues on a wide variety of Epson printers...you wanna place blame or do you wanna learn how to fix the problem? (clue, the odds are it isn't Adobe nor Epson leading to the problems, it's you bud).

  • 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.

  • Photoshop not printing to Epson R2400 in Snow Leopard

    Hi there
    I can print from Microsoft Word and Textpad fine. But Photoshop CS4 will not print anything to my Epson R2400. The job briefly appears in the queue, then disappears, with no error message.
    When I try and Preview from inside the Epson Print dialogue, it just shows a blank page, so I'm pretty sure it's Photoshop that's at fault, as Previewing a similar job from Microsoft Word turns out fine.
    Has anyone else had this error and found a way to fix it?

    I've the exact same problem - though I'm using Lightroom 2.4 (64 bit) and Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac.
    Printing from Textpad & Pages works fine - but every print from Lightroom and Photoshop Elements just disappears (like Monkeytennis2 described).
    I've tried different drivers: the new 6.57 - and the older 6.12 (via Rosetta). The Gutenprint 5.2.3 works, but the quality is just miserable.
    This is indeed a strange thing ... and I hope someone has an idea how to fix it.
    EDIT: has anyone tried this http://forums.adobe.com/message/2215478 ... ?

  • Color Setting in CS4 for printing to Epson R2400 in the UK ?

    Hi all. I'm a newbie to CS4 and have been having trouble deciding on which color settings to use with which printer profle/standard.  I have an Epson Stylus R2400 printer and I'm not sure what the color settings should be to print on Epson Premium Glossy in the UK. All the info /videos i have seen refer to North America and I'm unsure if I should be using these settings or Europe Prepress 2.  I have currently set the printer profile to Adobe RGB (1998), but have the option to choose SPR2400 Premium Glossy profile with Matt, Fine Art(which I downloaded from Epson .com and I believe to be a US profile and I'm not sure if this is the right one to be using in the UK )and others. Can anyone advise me please!
    Regards Denis

    europe pretends to be printing more saturated C and M inks
    (most of the times it doesn't)
    and it shouldn't matter anyway
    a well color managed workflow is meant to reproduce pictures as accurately as the individual devices permit, regardless of gamut
    use the Epson profile for your paper
    or [better], make your own with an EyeOne Pro or a color Munki

  • Inconsistent Color Prints on Epson R2400

    Okay, I'm frustrated. I ran out of ink on my epson r2400, specifically light light black and light magenta. I changed cartridges and now the color is off. I haven't changed the profiles or settings and the image is the same (I was printing multiple copies of the same image when I ran out of ink). The prints are much more magenta now . The inks are epson inks, the paper is Costco paper, the profile I got directly from Costco. I ran a nozzle check, and it was fine. The combination worked very well until I ran out of ink.
    I contacted Epson, to see if they could explain it or if they ever have ink inconsistencies. They assured me that their ink quality is perfectly consistent. Therefore, they said, the problem must be with the paper or my settings in Photoshop.
    Has anyone experienced a color shift simply from changing cartridges before? Any suggestions on what might have happened within Photoshop to cause such a problem? Any suggestions at all?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Thanks for the latest tips, though the problem has been solved!!
    I ran through the light magenta cartridge in question making a lot of color prints where the match wasn't critical. I replaced the cartridge with another epson light magenta and printed the same photo that initially caused my concern. Amazingly it is back to where it belongs, identical to the prints I printed before I made the last cartridge change.
    Therefore, in my opinion, the cartridge was indeed the culprit. Surprising yes, disappointing yes, rare yes, but it really, truly did happen.
    I've always been a fan of epson, but it sure is infuriating when a manufacturer places the blame on someone else and refuses to even consider that the fault could possibly be in their own quality control.
    Though I will most likely stick with epson when I eventually search for another printer, I may now entertain other brands. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Steve

  • Problems Printing from Epson 2400 in Lightroom 2.3

    I'm in the process of switching over from a PC to a Mac. I've gotten lightroom running and transfered all my photos over. But I'm having two big problems printing from my Epson 2400.
    *8.5x11 prints are offset. The top of the picture starts about an inch lower than it should, and the bottom typically gets cut off.
    *Lightroom refuses to print 4x6 prints. It says it's printing, and the paper feeds in, but then the printer just spits out a blank page.
    I'm using the most current version of the Epson 2400 driver that I could find on the Epson web site.
    [Update] I used iPhoto 9 to print out some pictures, and they came out fine. So this seems to be a lightroom issue or a conflict between the lightroom/epson drivers.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Further update. It appears that I can print perfectly from another account on the same mac. But the account on which my catalog resides doesn't work at all. Could my catalog have been corrupted when I transfered my photos and catalog over to the new mac from the pc? Is there any way that I can fix it? (I have tried optimize and relaunch; no luck.)
    I could -- as a last restort -- kill the catalog and reimport all my thousands of photos, but wouldn't I loose the keywords and adjustments?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Problems printing from Epson Stylus Pro 700

    I just upgraded to CS4. Now I can't print from Adobe Indesign on my Epson Stylus Pro 7800. It will print from photoshop. I upgraded the printer driver, but that didn't help. Other applications such as Word will print. When I click on the printer monitor, it says printer ready. The print job is "stopped." When I click on resume it says "Operation could not be completed." What can I do to fix this?
    Kate

    Yes, I've contacted epson. At first the computer wouldn't recognize that the 7800 printer was attached. My 1400 printer was working. I replaced the firewire cable on the 7800, per instructions from Epson, with a USB. That fixed the first problem. Then when I was printing in Adobe, I couldn't choose a paper type. We tried downloading a driver upgrade, and running disk utility(Epson tech still). That fixed that problem. Now I can choose a paper type in the print dialogue box, but when I tell the printer to print, the dialogue box says printing stopped. If I select resume, It tells me client error, not possible. I also spent about an hour on the phone with Adobe trying to solve this problem. Epson says it's an Adobe problem, and Adobe says it's an Epson problem! Currently, I can print in photoshop and indesign, but not pdf files on either printer. On Friday, at some point, I was able to print pdfs, but not photoshop or InDesign. Unfortunately I didn't write down exactly when that was, as I didn't realize at that time, that I wouldn't be able to print pdfs later on. I appreciate any help you can give me.

  • DARK PRINTS on Epson R2400

    I know this has been discussed in other threads. What I did not find posted elsewhere was "the" solution to my problem of dark prints with Lightroom on an Intel Mac, that was provided by Epson Tech Support this morning. First, I've tried all the other suggestions including-
    1. direct USB connection
    2. Not color managed
    3. calibrate monitor
    4. update drivers
    5. select correct ICC profile
    etc., etc., etc!!!
    What did it for me-
    DUH!
    Nozzle Check - to indicate that there was a problem, and
    Head Cleaning - to correct the problem.
    Now, printed photos look like previews on screen.
    Hope this helps someone else.
    Thank you Epson!
    Dave

    I have to chime in and say that:
    1. I used to have the same problem with dark prints from LR to my Epson R1800.
    2. I'm quite convinced that the problem is due to either a combination of the following, or just one of the following:
    2.a. A "faulty" driver installation. Wrong driver ppc driver instead of macintel driver. Multiple drivers installed with different version numbers. It is possible to end up with two drivers for one epson printer. I know. I have.
    2b. Not setting up LR AND the Mac OS print dialog options correctly when printing.
    2c. Not installing the printer correctly in the System Preferences.
    2d. An ink problem in the printer. Clogging etc.
    Possible solutions:
    Check in Computer:Library:Printers: to see if you have more than one driver installed.
    Or just trash anything Epson in this folder and reinstall the driver. (Keep a backup if you don't know what you are doing, and don't blame me if you mess things up ;-) .
    Make sure you install the correct driver, don't use the ppc-driver on an intel-mac.
    When you add your printer in the system preferences make sure to click on the "More Printers" button and choose either Epson-USB or Epson-Firewire (Depends on how you connect it obviously). DON'T install it in the first dialog window that appears after you click the +button in the Printers and Fax window in system preferences.
    In LR you have to set up correctly with the correct icc-profile for your paper.
    In LR press Page Setup and choose the correct printer and paper format in that os dialog.
    In LR press the Printer Settings button and in that os dialog window you have to choose no color management - as stated many times before :-)
    And of course you have to select the correct paper here as well and other settings like "best photo" and so on.
    Make sure you have Standard selected as the Preset in the Print Settings dialog and then Option-click on the Save button to save your settings.
    Now you can make a template in LR with your settings.
    You shall always use Standard as the preset even when you make a new print template in LR with different settings. Somehow they stick when you use Standard, but they don't stick if you choose a different name for the preset in the os print settings dialog.
    I hope you can understand all of the above let me know if not and I will try to explain.
    /Andreas

  • Issue printing from PowerPoint

    I am having an issue when I print from Powerpoint to PDF Printer.
    I have Helvetica fonts. I embeded the fonts.
    The text that is using the Helevetica fonts is sometimes completely gone (especially when I am using bullet form) and sometimes part of the word is gone.
    Can anyone help?

    This really isn't a Typography Question as much as an Acrobat Question (assuming you are using Acrobat). In some versions of the Windows OS there is a bug printing to postscript printers (which the Acrobat PDF Virtual Printer is) that causes the issue you mention. There is a hotfix from Microsoft to fix this problem:
    http://support.microsoft.com/?id=952909
    However, if you are seeing this under Windows 7 then something else is going on. I'd suggest you repost in the Acrobat forum if the hotfix is not appropriate for you. When you repost please add details (OS?, version of Acrobat? version of Powerpoint? If Helvetica is TT or PS and vendor.
