Mavericks 10.9.3 / epson stylus photo px730wd: can not print cd

Hello, I have a problem with my inc printer: I can no longer print CD's!
The other thing I noticed is, that the "head cleaning tools" are no longer available.
I installed the "Epson Printer Drivers v2.17 for OS X" package but I did not see a change. The driver still says it is 2.0...
I hope you have an idea... and if it would be a hint, which CD printer IS working with machericks 10.9.3.
Thanks in advancs!

I don't know if this helps, but I've always had problems printing wireless with my Epson Photo Printer 580. I am now able to print CDs wireless by going to Epson's North America site and downloading the EPson Print CD v2.0 as well as as the common updater.

Bitte gehen Sie in diesem Fall wie folgt vor.
1. Löschen Sie alle Epson Drucker aus der Druckerliste.
2. Deinstallieren Sie den Treiber über die Installationsroutine. Besteht diese Möglichkeit nicht gehen Sie bitte direkt zu Punkt 3.
3. Löschen Sie den Inhalt des Ordners "Epson" unter HDD -> Library -> Printers.
4. Suchen Sie im Finder nach Druckermodell und löschen gefundene Einträge.
5. Starten Sie Ihren Mac neu.
6. Laden Sie den aktuellen Treiber von unserer Website und installieren Sie diesen. http://esupport.epson-europe.com/de-DE
7. Schließen Sie den Drucker direkt am Mac an, Kabellänge <= 2m. Sollte der Drucker im folgenden nicht gefunden werden schließen Sie ihn bitte per USB und nicht per FireWire oder Netzwerkkabel an. Verwenden Sie keinen USB-Hub und nicht den USB-Port an der Tastatur.
8. Drucker hinzufügen:
8.1 Power PC 10.x.x
Gehen Sie ins Druckerdienstprogramm wählen Sie hinzufügen (unter Tiger 10.4.x dann weitere Drucker) und wählen die korrespondierende EPSON-Schnittstelle (Epson-USB, Epson Firewire, Epson Appletalk, Epson TCP/IP) im Dialog aus. Der Drucker wird in der Auswahlliste angezeigt. Markieren Sie ihn und wählen Sie wenn möglich Papierformat "ALLE". Schließen Sie den Vorgang mit hinzufügen.
8.2 Mac-Intel 10.4.x
Gehen Sie ins Druckerdienstprogramm wählen Sie hinzufügen und wählen die korrespondierende EPSON-Schnittstelle (USB, Epson Firewire, Epson Appletalk, Epson TCP/IP) im Dialog aus. Der Drucker wird in der Auswahlliste angezeigt. Markieren Sie ihn und wählen Sie wenn möglich Papierformat "ALLE". Schließen Sie den Vorgang mit hinzufügen.
8.3 Leopard 10.5.x
Gehen Sie in Drucker & Faxe, wählen Sie hinzufügen, wählen Sie den Drucker aus der Liste (USB/Bonjour) und prüfen Sie, daß im Feld "Drucken mit/Druckermodell" EPSON und das Kürzel für Ihren Drucker steht. z.B.: "SPRO3800". Um den Drucker per EPSON Appletalk hinzuzufügen, wählen Sie oben rechts das Symbol "andere". Wählen Sie hinzufügen um die Installation abzuschließen.
8.4 Snow Leopard 10.6.x
Gehen Sie in Drucker & Faxe, wählen Sie das "+" Zeichen, wählen Sie den Drucker aus der Liste (USB/Bonjour) und prüfen Sie, daß im Feld "Drucken mit/Druckermodell" EPSON und das Kürzel für Ihren Drucker steht. z.B.: "SPRO3800". Um den Drucker per EPSON Appletalk oder per Epson Firewire hinzuzufügen, wählen Sie oben rechts das Symbol "andere". Wählen Sie hinzufügen um die Installation abzuschließen.
Beim Update von 10.4 oder 10.5 auf 10.6 empfehlen wir das Drucksystem zurückzusetzen und dann die Treiber neu zu installieren. Dieses Verfahren kann auch beim bei Punkt 1 benutzt werden. Allerdings sind dann alle Drucker gelöscht!
Falls Sie noch weitere Fragen, Wünsche oder Äußerungen haben, stehen wir Ihnen gerne zur Verfügung.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Epson Stylus Photo R2400 won't print large pages?

I recently upgraded to Mac OS X Leopard. I immediately had problems with printing to my Epson Stylus Photo R2400 as a print driver gutenprint had suddenly replace my Epson driver when going thu dialog to print. Called and Epson and they got me thru process of getting rid of the newly replaced gutenprint to an Epson driver. Problem is I can't print anything larger than an 8.5x11 page. The printer set up says and shows me that what I have set as an 11x17 or 13x19 is going to print. But all that prints on this large expensive paper is an area 8.5x8.5. No matter what I change in set up. Epson says they have done all they can do. (And I just found out last week they have replaced this printer with another printer). I have hundreds of dollars in newly purchased inks and I am wasting expensive paper.
Also I had to remove the patch for OS leopard to get the printer to work in this diminished capacity.
And my email signature disappeared. Can't get that back either.
But printer is my biggest problem. Any suggestions how to get this printer to work with this new OS leopard and print large sizes? I have deadlines and hate to outsource the printing when I could easily do it in house.

Well, you picked the very hardest way to do it, and as time goes on, you will probably discover many other things wrong with your system as well. You CANNOT go back to Tiger from Leopard via an archive and install; you have to wipe the drive and start over from scratch, and then transfer all your data over from a backup and reinstall most, if not all, of your applications so the right elements are in the right places. Even so you'll never get your system exactly back to where it was, unless you had a perfect bootable Tiger backup (via SuperDuper) and merely restored from that. Obviously whatever Leopard element that killed your printing capability is still on your frankenstein system of BOTH Tiger and Leopard parts.
There are hundreds of posts on the issue of reverting to Tiger from Leopard, many quite detailed. So many things are changed from upgrading from one to the other that what you attempted (unless you completely wiped the drive and all your data) has always proven disastrous, which is why I highly recommended against it after reading hundreds of horror stories here.
I suggest doing a search at downgrading from Leopard to Tiger, following those instructions if you can, and making the best of it. You'll find that springing the $200 for an external drive would have been a much better and easier solution, because it can come in very handy if you ever need to do any maintenance on your internal hard drive, or if some update or problems kill your internal drive and you can't even boot the system. Not to mention sooner or later always needing more storage capability, and even a drive for reliable backups.
I would never dream of attempting a downgrade or needing to do it in the first place (having taken precautions as to never have to), so I can't give you any further advice than that.

Does Lion work with an Epson Stylus Photo R2000 Ink Jet Printer?

Does Lion work with an Epson Stylus Photo R2000 Ink Jet Printer?

Took deliverly of my R2000 yesterday 11/04/2012.
**** of a job/mission getting to connect wirelessly to OSX Lion, but thanks to the perseverence of Epson support online chat plus ultimately phone call from Epson,the problem was resolved (total 3hours 45mins online chat 45mins on phone) yes i was a gineapig as the R2000 has only been available since March 2012 here in the UK.
1. Download combo driver/utilities for R2000 Mac 10.6 (works with Lion)
2. Install latest drivers and Epsonet.
3. Connect the printer to your wireless router using a LAN cable.
4. Ensure ink is installed on startup of the printer as the printer wont for some reason communicate without it as all the printer knows is it needs ink.
5. Ensure Mac is also connected to router.
6. Run Epsonet.
7. When Epsonet has found the R2000 click next.
8. Then click Changes on the following screen.
9. Select wireless Lan.
10. Select config manually (the auto will not work with Lion)
11. Allow Epsonet to use passwords from keychain network name(SSID) + WEP password.
12. When done you will be prompted to disconnect the LAN from the printer.
13. Then Click next.
14. Ensure wireless light on printer is lit if not hold WiFi button on printer for 3 Secs.
15. If config is successful (it took me Two attempts) goto system preferences/print/scan/Add printer and add the R2000 that ends in IP.
Hope this helps someone. Epson support is a good enough reason to buy Epson IMO as mentioned with their help it took nearly 4 hours to reach the above solution at no cost to myself and believe you me i was on the verge of returning the printer to the supplier as Wireless printing is a must with a 19 month old child on the loose.
Thanks Epson/Europe

WIFI scan Epson Stylus Photo PX710W does not work under OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) and

Since yesterday (27/10) i have installed OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) on my iMac. Now there is a problem with my Epson Stylus Photo PX710W. I cannot scan via WIFI. It seems that the problem is with the scan.app version 3.7.1. I can oly scan via USB and cable, but that's not why I bought a WIFI printer/scanner for.
Is there anybody who can offer me a solution for my problem?

Epson Stylus Photo PX710W is not compatible with Mavericks

I still cannot scan with my Epson Stylus Photo PX710W. My scan driver (scan.app version 3.7.1) is not compatible with Mavericks. Who can help me?
Epson does not react to my question when the correct driver will be available.
Epson indicate to their FAQ’s, but this is will not help since the ICA scan only works when my printer/scanner is connected to my Mac via USB. I bought this EPSON printer/scanner because it was wireless. Now after just 3 years I miss this important option.
I see a lot of discussion about Epson scan drivers but little help from Epson
Who can lead me to an appropriate scan driver for my Epson device?

I disagree a bit because my Epson printer/scanner worked very well for over 3 years. It worked under Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion. But since I installed Mavericks my scanner doesn't work anymore. It's just a case that Epson is very slow in upgrading the drivers within an appropriate time on the one hand and not giving any foresight how long it takes to repair drivers on the other hand. Their website is inadequate and gives me absolute no information at all. I can understand their vision when it comes to printer/scanners which are very old i.e 10 years and mor. But not for relatively new printer/scanners.
So, if anybody can help i'll be very greatefull.

Fixed Epson Stylus Photo RX580 - Unable to print from AirPort in 10.5.x

After upgrading 1st Gen MBP 17" to 10.5.4 I could not print from the Airport, unless I used Bonjour through one of my 10.4.11 Macs. Much sadness. Found this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6170067 - near the bottom was "big ant" response (for an AL C1100). He has a 9-step process from Stepson, and it work fabulously. One suggestion - in the last step, you can choose which model driver, I advise selecting the second choice driver Epson Stylus Photo RX580 - Gutenprint v5.1.3. It adds better options for printing, especially for print quality options. I plan to try the solution on my office RX680 next.

After trying for weeks, I finally came up with a very simple workaround that allows me to print to the Stylus Pro 3800 wirelessly again. I don't know why I didn't try this before. All I did was change the way I connect the printer to the Airport Extreme Base Station from using USB to Ethernet. In the printer's front panel "Network Setup" menu I made sure that the Bonjour option was enabled.
After this, it was just a simple matter of adding the printer again from the Print Fax preference pane and everything worked!
So, if anyone else is having a similar problem, try using the Ethernet port on your printer instead of the USB one.
Cheers

How can I go back to snow leopard my epson stylus Photo TX810FW does not work with Lion

My Epson Stylus Photo TX810FW printer does not work with Lion how do I go back to Snow Leopard?

Did you try removing the printer from the queue and then reinstalling it?
I attempted to print this morning for the first time after upgrading to Lion and discovered that while everything appeared normal on my Epson printer, it would never print.
I opened System Preference > Print & Scan and deleted the printer.
I then added the printer back and it now working again. Worth a shoot first I should think.
Much easier the a downgrade.

Epson Stylus Photo R1800 on Linksys Printer server

hi, I'm currently running Tiger 10.4.11 on my power book G4 and trying to connect to a network printer on a Linksys Print Server (PSUS4). The printer connected to the server is an Epson Stylus Photo R1800.
I'm able to print perfectly from my computer via USB direct, but when I try to find the printer as a network printer I can't locate it.
The print utilities finds the location of printer from the Linksys server, but none of my drivers are coming up that are compatible to the printer when it finds it like that.
When the printer is turned on the print browser cannot find it at all, but when it's turned off the browser comes up with the name Linsys gave it to be discovered. It says it's connected via AppleTalk, but when I click on it to try to add the driver doesn't come up. BUT it's the correct driver when I connect manually.
What am I doing wrong? I was on the phone with tech support for an hour and 24 minutes only to be told (when transferred to a specialist) that they aren't trained for this kind of thing, neither is Linksys (who I spoke to for 30 minutes). I read the thread on the similar issue to this and don't think that it's a driver issue, but a print server issue, what do you think??
thanks for any help.
-melissa

Driver issue - the driver provided by Epson was written for USB only (well, maybe Firewire too for the 1800). You will have to use either the Gutenprint driver or the printfab driver for network printing:
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3
http://www.printfab.net
Sounds like your print server will work via appletalk -- but, if you want to try IP printing, don't forget to enter the correct queue name for the LPD and IPP protocols.

Elements 12, Epson Artisan 1430, "Photoshop can not print this document"

I recently upgraded to Elements 12 and also got a new printer, Epson Artisan 1430. I got some great prints and then one day, it stopped working. Elements error. No error number just a message, "Photoshop can not print this document" I tried restarting the program, the printer, and the computer. No luck. Tried different graphic files; no luck. The printer works with all other programs beautifully. I cannot find help anywhere on Adobe forum. Running Windows 7

John, I deleted the printer and deleted those folders and reinstalled the printer using the printer menu. When I tried the apple software update it said my software was up to date and didn't offer an option to get updated print drivers. I tried printing again and the same thing happened.
Syd,
I am trying to print from the Macbook to the Artisan entirely over a wireless network. The Macbook has not been plugged directly into the printer or to the router at any point in this. I did try what you suggested, resetting the printing system, and as earlier it did not offer any software updates when I looked for one. I tried printing again and the same result.
I dug around some more directories and found some more files with the epson name in there and deleted those and then attempted to reinstall using the printer setup page, and then again tried a software update and again it didn't find any new drivers, and of course the same printing error occurred again.
It sure appears that the MacOS is holding onto drivers somewhere that I cannot discover because when I reinstall the printer it takes it all of 3-4 seconds to install, and when I try to do the software update it is not finding any new drivers anywhere.
Syd, I agree that there seems to be something specifically corrupted about the printer driver itself, however, but is there another way to remove drivers?
Should I try uninstalling everything and attempting a USB installation to see if prints that way?

Epson Stylus Photo 700 won't print in OS 9.2

HI,
I got my usb to parallel adapter to work with my Stylus Photo 700 on my Blueberry with OS 10.3.9 and usbtb and gimp=Print. I have been trying to figure out how to get it to work in the classic environment-9.2.2. The Epson window comes up and Ii have access to utilities there but the "*printer is not available*"
Any ideas how to overcome that little problem?
Thanks,
Warren McNeely

If this article doesn't work:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300849
Then you need a Mac OS 9 version of both the printer driver and the USB to Parallel adapter. Unfortunately the company that makes the older version of the driver has a website domain that no longer works if Keyspan's drivers don't work. That company was Strydent, and their driver was called Powerprint. You may want to toss that printer and get one known to work in the Classic environment. Only Canon has on their support pages listings of printers that do work in the Classic environment. You may find more info that is relevant on my FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/printersx.html
You may be able to find someone whos still has Strydent's software, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Can't print- 27" 2013 iMac-my epson stylus 3800 pro will not print-i updated driver n added printer in syst prefs-When i print the printer queue opens and shows the job as "stopped"-Supply level "information is not available"-maybe part of problem...thx

I can't print from my 27" late 2013 iMac. I am using an epson stylus 3800 pro. I updated driver and added printer in system preferences. When i print the printer queue opens and shows the job as "stopped". Supply level shows "information is not available which maybe part of problem...thank you

The first thing you could try is a reset of the printing system. Please note that this action will remove all printers and scanners from the Printers & Scanners preference pane.
With the reset complete, unplug the Epson USB cable from the Mac for a minute and then reconnect it. This action should result in the printer being added again to the Mac automatically. If this does happen, then see if you can print again.
If the printer is not added again automatically, open Printers & Scanners and click the plus button to add the Epson. Once this is done, then see if you can print again.

Epson stylus pro 3800 will not print via ethernet port

Recently I set up a sling box utilizing my Apple Extreme's singular ethernet port. In order to free up the port for the slingbox I removed the epson printer and directly connected it to my Imac through its ehternet port. I print all my photos from this Mac so i do not need the network accessibility. The Imac does not show the printer at all but does continue to communicate with the wireless usb printer, a Brother. The question i have is how can i get my Mac to recognize the Epson through the ethernet port?

As you probably have noticed this is way out of the range of my apple-knowledge:
Where can I find the coupps-folder?
And how can I reinstall them?
The Printer Setup Repair says:
2 missing files/directories found during the verification process. They may be responsible for certain printing problems. Printer Setup Repair cannot replace these items. Please refer to the log file for a list of the missing files/directories. You may need to reinstall OS X to resolve your printing issues. Certain files and directories are deleted when using the Reset Printing System option. These files and directories, if required, will be recreated during normal printing.
I really don't want to reinstall OS X.
By the way, thank you very much for your help.

UPDATE: oops, it prints... but just black ink! or something like that.......
