My Epson XP-710 Series, printer/scanner: I can see the drivers but not the software - where is it?

Just bought the above. When I read the instructions, it tells me to go to Applications, and click on the software. All I have in Applications is the driver. I cannot see what Epson says I should have, ie, colourful screens to use. I downloaded the drivers from Apple, as Epson was !!!!! Any ideas anyone? Trying to scan an application form to see if I can fill-in as opposed to using my pen. I can't even find out if I can do this. Help.

Hi Bratman91 and Greg
I am now losing my sanity over this darned machine. I have now done as follows: 'EPSONPrintDriver2.18.dmg' for OS X Mavericks was downloaded from Apple. I clicked on this in Downloads & then this led to 'EPSONPrinterDrivers.pkg' opening, which led on to installing the Epson Printer Software. Apparently as per Epson and Apple I should not be having such a hard time. Yes sure! I gave up on the disc that came with the printer; Apple does say this though. I did as described but to be honest printing and scanning does not have the look of WOW. It all looks grey/brown and drab. Epson web makes it look so wonderful and easy. I may not have needed to download the 2 as described; any ideas? Maybe just one would suffice?
Re: image capture. I though this was from Epson, but apparently it is from Apple. I use this icon to access scanning, but it is so laborious. It takes a while after clicking the Epson icon within it, for scanning to start. If this is the Apple option, can't I use the Epson option (if there is one). I can go into Printers and Scanners in my mbp and I see the same. Is image capture the same as scanning via Printers and Scanners? So many Qs; sorry.
Any idea how I can print in draft? This comes in handy sometimes, but when I do see the slider which looks likes I can move said slider, it won't ever slide to draft, no matter what type of paper I chose, eg, photo, plain paper etc. Any ideas? The opportunity exists with the slider, but it won't stay on drafts. Thanks in anticipation of any further advice. Helen

"printer is offline" appears on one computer but not the other (both windows 7)

This is pretty common to see when your firewall kicks in and blocks certain communication paths the printer takes.
Here's a list of ports and programs that when allowed through the firewall, will restore communiction.
Ports to open:
UDP ports: 427, 161, 139
TCP ports: 9200, 9220, 9290, 9500
Programs to allow:
hpiscnapp.exe
hpoews01.exe
hpofxm08.exe
hposfx08.exe
hposid01.exe
hpqkygrp.exe
hpqste08.exe
hpqtra08.exe
hpznui01.exe
hpzwiz01.exe
SLP_Service (also known as UDP 427)
Have your security software provider walk you through allowing these items through your firewall.
If this does not fix your issue, it is most likely an issue with the driver configuration. Your router may have assisgned the printer a new IP address and this can be changed in the properties of the existing driver.

HP Officejet Pro 8500- prints wirelessly from one computer in network but not the other

I can print wirelessly from my laptop, but not my desktop. The printer shows on the list, checked as the default, and READY, but document does not seem to find its way there. It never shows up in the print queue.

Download and run this utility. It should indicate what is wrong.

Question for Printing - Local Administrators can See all printers but ordinary users and additional administrators cannot

Hello, this is urgent. This is the setting, Using Citrixx XenApp, branch users will print into the head office. The built-in admin can see all printer sessions in head office and branch but ordinary users and additional administrators cannot.
Even though, I'll put the users in the group Administrators,still, they cannot see all the printers, they can just see their own. But, I need to see ALL.
Please help me. Thanks.

Hi Lei Mab,
Please understand that this forum is used for the discussion about issues related Windows 7 operating system usage, any 3rd-party software usage issue would not be supported here.
The curent situation is when you are using Citrixx XenApp for the printing task, please seek help at their official website support forum.
Meanwhile, if we are in a domain environment, please take a look at the group policies settings, which might be the cause of the issue you encountered.
Besides, take a look at the following path:
Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers
See if the printers would be listed there.
Best regards

I want to customise the printed header to show the date but not the time. Is there a list of control words available to the custom header function?

The Date/Time option for header set-up shows both date and time. I only want to show the date

Not related to your question, but you are running an extremely old and out of date version of Firefox that is no longer supported or maintained and thus is vulnerable to many security holes. You should update to Firefox 14 immediately. [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]

I have recently upgraded to OSX 10.8.2 and now find that I cannot operate my scanner, an hp psc 1310 series printer/scanner. I get a message saying that Power PC is no longer supported. I am still able to print on the same device. What should I do?

Hi,
PSC 1315 no longer supported for scanning since Mac OS X v10.5 or while using any newer OS, there is no scan software provided by either HP or Apple (Image Capture)
You may find this information stated below for Leopard, the same apply for any newer OS version:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01234231&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en &os=219&product=374568&sw_lang=
Image capture will not recognize your device as well, only print is supported as you may find listed for teh PSC 1310 Series below:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#HP
Although there is no official scanning support for your device you may still try the 3rd party VueScan software which list your scanner as supported and compatible with Mountain Lion:

HT1338 I am trying to scan ONE document from my HP4700 series printer/scanner into my Macbook Pro. Manuals are inadequate and confusing. I could've walked it there by now. How do I scan from my printer/scanner?

Trying to scan a document from HP4700 series printer/scanner. Manual directions on this subject are useless and do not work as promised. I know this should be pretty simple. Can someone help?

Does the Scanner show up in Image Capture in Utilities?

Retina 5K w iPhoto 9.6 will not send photo to Epson XP-810 Series printer

Retina 5K w iPhoto 9.6 will not send photo to Epson XP-810 Series printer. Eternal/Infernal Beachball starts immediately and the system is frozen. Requires hard shutdown to clear and regain control of computer operation. I can export photos to my Desktop and print out of the Preview App, but that isn't really satisfactory.
I also have had an intermittent problem of not being able to send an email with pictures attached from within the iPhoto - this problem extends back to Mountain Lion days.
I have checked for Epson XP-810 Series s/w downloads both on the Epson site and the Apple App Store, and I appear to have the most current version.

As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

Can't add Epson xp-200 series printer to Macbook Air

Hi all,
hoping someone can help me with this before I throw either the macbook or the printer out the window in frustration!
I recently purchased a new Epson XP-200 series printer and try as I might I cannot get it to connect to my Macbook Air either via wi-fi or USB. I have used both the CD that came with the printer and downloaded the software online. Currently when I have the USB connected the computer recognises that the printer is there but when I try to add the printer it attempts to update the software, then tells me that it cannot as the software is not currently available on the server. I cannot get past this step as the computer won't let me add the printer without updating the software and Apple then tells me it doesn't have the software available despite their website telling me it is and also despite me downloading it from the web.
Can someone please help me get past this issue!
The reason that I bought a new printer was that my previous HP WIFI printer one day just stopped working, or should i say disconnected form the computer and i couldn't reconnect it, I assumed it was the printer, but given that I can still copy on it I'm now thinking it was a computer issue, or one of the OS upgrades to be more precise that caused the issue!

In what context do you see "the software upgrade"?
Is it trying to update firmware on your Epson printer?
Is it trying to update some software on your Mac? That would be highly unlikely since the download link I sent you has the latest software.
To update firmware on your Epson, get the Epson iPrint app for your iPad from the iOS App Store. (By the way, does your iPad connect to the Epson using AIrPrint? Assuming it does ...)
Run Epson iPrint. Click the printer. Then click "Advanced Settings". Then do a firmware update from there.

Thanks for your help Karen Serena. Obviously, it appears in the list of printers and scaners on the left, into the "Print and Scan" with system preferencies. Then i click it , it appears on the right, then i click "open scanner" below the name and opens a window writing "open device failed". When i connect the scanner, it makes a sound but that's all...the scanner is dead, even if I push any button...Also there isn't any window opened to prove the function of the scanner, only is shown in the scanner list, that's all.

HP F4180 is listed as a scanner for one user's account, but not another

One of the Snow Leopard (10.6.8) users on my in-laws' Intel iMac has the ability to scan from their HP F4180 printer/scanner, but the other user can only print. The device doesn't show up under Preview, Image Capture or the Printer settings panel.
The iMac has been checked for the latest software update. I'm not sure why one user can scan from this device, but not the other.

How can I print just a part of the page and not the full page with Adobe Reader v 10.1.2?

how can I print just a part of the page and not the full page with Adobe Reader v 10.1.2? I need to print a engineering print with lot of information but information is too small in letter size and I don't have a plotter.

Two ways to print a portion of a page: zooming or using the Snapshot Tool.
ZOOMING:
Zoom into the area you want to print.
Click the Print icon.
Under "Pages to Print", make sure "Current view" is selected under "More options" (you may need to click "More options" to open it).
If you aren't satisfied with the preview, try clicking "Fit" under the Size button.
SNAPSHOT
Choose Edit > Take A Snapshot.
Drag a rectangle around the area you want to print.
Click the Print icon.
Under "Pages to Print", make sure that "Selected Graphic" is selected under "More options".
To enlarge the snapshot to fit the sheet of paper, choose "Fit" under the Size button.
Hope this helps!

If I try to download a pdf document, it appears in the tab but not on screen. I am using Firefox. I tried it with Safari and the document appeared on screen but it wouldn't print.

Hi...
Quit your browsers.
Open the Finder.
From the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Typs this exactly as you see it here: /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go
Move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin (or just PDF Browser plugin) to the Trash.
Relaunch either Firefox or Safarai and try downloading a PDF document.
