Issues with epson 2880

Hi everyone -
I'm using Photoshop Elements on a mac and I'm having trouble printing to my Epson 2880. It's forcing me to print from the back-end feeder, which may be correct for Enhanced Matte Paper. But in doing so the alignment of the page is off (less space on one side than the other) and the image does not begin to print on the page for a good two inches, pushing the rest of the image off the bottom of the page. I think this might all be fixed if I could figure out how to change the page setup in printer settings from "roll paper". It does not give me the opportunity to do this. Any ideas???
Thanks,
Amy

you do have the option under page setup where you can set your margins accordingly.

  • Trouble printing with Epson 2880 and SL

    Installed SL on my MBP but not my iMac yet as it is my main computer for printing with Aperture. I have been very happy with the 2880 and how well the prints match what I see on the screen (calibrated with i1d2). Well with SL I downloaded rosetta and the new 2880 drivers (as instructed by Epson), but whenever I choose a paper profile e.g., Premium Photo Glossy, the picture in Aperture Print Pane turns a purple hue. I, of course, have color management turned off in the Print Settings dialog. Anyone have any idea what is going on? As far as I can tell I'm not doing anything differently. More importantly, has anyone been able to get good photo printing with SL, Aperture and the new Epson drivers for the 2880 or similar Epson printer?
    Thanks, Jim

    That KB article just saved me from going back to 10.5. I was having the same purple problem with all Ilford and Hahnemuhle profiles.
    That problem is now gone (by just disabling Black Point Compensation) but: when trying to print from Aperture (2.1.4) with my R2880, any paper I choose is apparently stuck at +roll paper+, giving a +wrong source+ error when it reaches the printer. I now have to hit preview, select the correct page setup and profile and print from there. So far this seems to work. But it's a pain and not what I want to be stuck doing for very long.
    I had this problem before but only when printing to Manual-Roll. Now even Sheet Feeder options don't work. This would all be fixed if we only had a proper Page Setup option in Aperture as in every other OS X application...
    At least that convoluted method gives me the right colors - which I was definitely not getting by going the system managed route.
    Growing pains anyone?

    Hi--
    Check to see if Black Point Compensation is checked; if it is uncheck it and see if the purple hue disappears.
    I have the older Epson Stylus Photo 2200; do you know if the drivers for the 2880 work with the 2200?
    thx

  • Margin issues with Epson R2400

    I user LR 3 on a Mac, and print on an Epson R2400.
    My problem is that my print outs are off-centered, even though everything is all right on the screen (and the margins I define on LR are even).
    This probably has something to do with Epson's driver (v 6.57), but I do not know what to do.
    Thanks for your help.

    You need the 6.5dAs drivers from http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?oid=54861&infoType=Downloads
    The copies issue is a known problem. Sorry about that. But the other problems are not things we saw when testing with those drivers.

  • Printing with Epson 2880 after Apple Software Update of Epson Drivers

    I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed the loss of "Print Settings and Color Management" controls in the print dialogue when printing from Lightroom or Photoshop after the recent Driver Update (which appeared in Software Update.) Prior to the Update which I had been avoiding until it came down when I updated iTunes (again, Software Update) all print options were available with the Epson software. Oddly, if you elect allowing the printer to control the output the color and color settings are available but if you set the (Lightroom or Photoshop) dialogue to the paper profile then the color and color settings are grayed out. I talked at length with both Epson Tech support and went through the drill of removing and installing the printer and installing the newest drivers (from Epson) and nothing changed. I talked with Apple and again, nothing changed inspite of various adjustments. This is just a little disturbing since I do a considerable amount of photo printing.
    Any thoughts or opinions would be appreciated.

    I'm going to make an additional comment to my question and that is, strange as the behavior is, this may be a normal function with the update. Although during my roughly hour talk with Epson tech support, the rep was not aware and gave me reason to believe what was (not) happening in the software was in fact wrong. Clearly, the new print dialogue with it's grayed out settings is different from the previous print dialogue and print settings. If you now use a paper profile - regardless of manufacturer - the software assumes you are going to turn off color management - which is absolutely correct. Although I have not tried it, I am led to believe from some material I found deep in Epson's Support, the "color" area in the print dialogue no longer permits electing printing in "advanced" Black and White. More correctly, inorder not to have B&W grayed out you must be using glossy paper and the correct black ink cartridge is in the printer. This isn't a bad idea but sometimes I find the image is better with a Matte paper. Obviously you can, and I have, printed in B&W - you just have to be aware that within the Color settings of the print dialogue you no longer have the "option" to select B&W or advanced B&W. In some strange ways the new dialogue and settings areas of the Apple print menu for the Epson printers is simpler but it does come as a surprise when you first struggle with the changes.

  • CS5 printer issues with Epson R2400

    Upgraded (????) to CS5
    Win7-64, Photoshop CS5 - 64 & 32, Epson R2400 (Epson Easy Photo Print v1.51 Drivers)
    CS5 will not print multiple copies. Can change it in printer settings, makes no difference.
    CS5 will not allow me to change orientation to landscape. Have to go to printer settings. Will not stick. have to change it everytime I want to print the same file.
    CS5 will lose the printer. Have to change the printer then change it back. "because the printer does not exist" is the error message. (Not even a complete sentence!)
    Printer profile will not stick.
    These issues did not occur with CS4.

  • Epson Perfection 2400 Scanner issue with Epson Print Driver 2.4.1 Update

    After the Epson Print Driver 2.4.1 update, my scanner quit working with Image
    Capture, which hangs during the overview scan. The scanner makes a pass over
    the document, but Image Capture just sits for a while saying "Overview Scan..."
    and then fails with a generic error message.
    I tried the suggestion in [11993273|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11993273&#11993273 ], but that did not work for me.
    Any other ideas?

    Thank's for the suggestion, but no help.
    It is not straight-forward to uninstall the driver because Apple installer
    does not offer an uninstall option. I resorted to
    sudo find /Library -iname "epson" -print -exec mv {} ~/Desktop/epson \;
    in the terminal. Reboot. Ran EPSONPrinterDrivers.pkg. Ran Disk Utility's
    Repair Permissions. Reboot. Added scanner back in the System Preferences.
    Opened Image Capture, the overview scan started and a few minutes later
    *Scanner reported and error*
    An error occured during scanning.

  • Printer issue with epson WF 2540

    All of a sudden, I'm unable to see print when printing an Adobe PDF or a TextEdit file. I AM able to print from a screen grab.
    Yosemite 10.10.3
    Apple says it's because Epson has not upgraded a driver for Yosemite. Epson says it's Apple's fault. Or mine since the screen grab software does print. One PDF just printed lines and volumes, no data.
    Thanks

    Having the same problem with my Epson WF2540.  I reset the printer and now it is unable to find it.  Says device is not connected.  The wifi is working on it but for some reason it can not seem to add the printer.
    Really hoping there is a fix for this soon!

  • Need help with Photoshop CS5.5 Printing issues with Epson R2880

    Hi,
    I'm experiencing problems printing on photoshop, I already selected center image but the epson printer always print to the upper left hand corner of
    the page. And the image is always cropped in a weird way, so eveytime I print the image is not a whole. I made sure I selected the right paper size too.
    It used to print okay, this happened a while ago but I don't know how it got fixed evetually, I think was after a complete restore of my OS.
    I am sure its nothing to do with the Epson driver, becuas after I export the file from photoshop to PDF it prints fine with either preview or adove acrobat.
    Has anyone else experienced such problem?
    Thank you!
    Shao

    Nope, not using the presets, i still cant figure out why it suddenly cant print right!
    btw, thnks for the link, its very useful!!

  • Issue with Epson RX500 - scanning

    So I tried scanning some stuff today using image capture on and it worked great the first two times. After that it would scan but then not show anything in image capture and the program would freeze up. It wouldn't lock the program but you couldn't scan anything or do anything in image capture till you restarted the computer.
    I got the latest Epson scan utility from Epson's site like they suggest but it wouldn't open. closes automatically after I try to open it. In the console I get this message: 11/24/07 10:33:27 AM [0x0-0x26026].com.epson.scan.standalone[285] dyld: shared cached file is corrupt: /var/db/dyld/dyldshared_cacheppc
    Deleted file and tried again but nothing. Any ideas? It sometimes works if I reboot then get one scan and reboot again other times it doesn't work, although the scanner goes it doesn't pass the data to the screen it seems like.

    Well I got it working only if I scan to tiff. I can't scan directly to pdf. Not sure why but at least I can get a tiff then convert it.

  • Reg: Continuous Printing issue in EPSON LQ-300+II

    Dear All,
    I'm facing a continuous cheque printing issue with EPSON printer (LQ-300+II).
    We've created a new page format for state bank of Mysore cheque (Dimension 231mm width X 92.5mm Height) and assigned that in our sapscript for printing. The cheque is printed using transactoin F-58.
    In windows server properties (print setting), our system admin has created a form with above dimension.
    My problem, first & second cheques are printed correctly & identically, but from third cheque the amount is printed slowly starting to print up by 0.5mm. After few cheques it is completing coming out of the box and printing few cms up.
    We've tried implementing every possible solutions given in the forum and ended in vain.
    1) inserted coding in printer initialization.
    2) tried to create similiar page format in windows.
    Please sugget a way to get out of this continuous printing issue.
    Thanks,
    Rajan U

    The stated length of the form / paper is in error...  that's why the output is "moving" up the page... sound like it should have been 93.0 mm height.  I would guess that if you carefully measured the placement on check 1 and 2, you would see precisely how much too short the height is....

    Epson names their printers (in addition to numbers). What is your printer designation?

  • Issues with HP Designjet 110plus, HP Deskjet 9300 & Epson Stylus c63

    I recently updated my office and bought an iMac and a MacBook, along with an AirPort Extreme. Since then I've been having issues with the following printers that I've been using for a while:
    HP DESIGNJET 110PLUS
    HP DESKJET 9300
    EPSON STYLUS C63
    Basically from time to time the printers either don't want to print or print incomplete stuff, also for some reason I cannot see the Supply Levels from the computer (System Preferences). I tried both with the printers connected to the AirPort Extreme and directly connected to the computer.
    After checking some stuff I read that Leopard already comes with the drivers for those printers (so it's not like I have to update drivers; they should be compatible with Leopard).
    What could I do to fix these issues?

    Adrian,
    Apple released an update on all the available HP drivers July 15 2008. I would recommend downloading and installing this so you have the most up-to-date drivers:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/hpprinterdriver11.html
    After you have done that then go to Preferences, Print and Fax and then click the minus sign for each HP printer you have installed. Once you have removed the HP Printers you need to add them back in with the new drivers. Simply click the plus sign and add your printers back in. This should do the trick.

  • Printing issues with Aperture 3 - color management

    I just made three prints of the same images, two with Aperture 3 that turned out very dark and off color, almost as it they were printed without color management or double profiles. I then printed the third by exporting the image to CS4 and printing with the same settings (rendering intend, printer settings and custom printer profile) and that print looks fine. Has anyone else run into similar problems with A#? I did not have this issue with Aperture 2.
    Thanks,
    Message was edited by: pcalvin

    I print on an Epson 2880 with Lyson inks and custom profiles. In Aperture 2 it worked perfectly, with exactly the same settings as for printing Photoshop - using the laboratory prescribed settings:perceptual and no black point compensation in Photoshop, and Adobe RGB Gamma 2.2 in the Print settings.
    Using the same profile and settings with Aperture 3, the colours are way, way off - exactly as described.
    I then tried with Aperture 3 turning off the Adobe RGB setting, so there was no colour space adjustment in the Print setting. This gave a slightly better result, but rather dead and slightly blue.
    I ran some tests with the GretagMacbeth colour chart used in preparing the profiles, which confirmed the above but also shows a lack of sharpness when printing from Aperture 3, and a blue border on three sides of the image - even though the border was set to 0.00. I have checked the printer head adjustments and run the test chart through Photoshop again to verify these are Aperture 3 artefacts.
    Unless this is resolved, it renders Aperture completely useless! (I have tried reinstalling printer drivers, to no effect).
