OS 10.7 and epson scanners

Since I upgraded to OS 10.7.4 my Epson Scanner V350 no longer works. I've tried to find help on the Epson website to discover where I can download new drivers but they seem to have little to say. Does anybody out there know how to get hold of drivers that will enaable my scanner to work, please? Many thanks.

Aperture and Epson Scanners

Having problems starting up Aperture? And a scanner by Epson plugged in (i.e. an Epson Perfection V350 Photo)?
Try unplugging the scanner, and Aperture might start up again – after that, that's what happened in my case, after pretty much trying everything else for at least 3 weeks.
Is there a way one can leave the scanner plugged in? Or am I left with a brick on the table due to borked up drivers?

You must choose the size of paper and the size of the print wanted -- these are in two different settings.
Btw, 13 x 19 is a standard size choice -- should not require custom setting.

Leopard and Epson crisis!

I have an Epson Perfection 2450 scanner at home (and 5 at work where I teach graphic design). We have upgraded to OS 10.5.1 and to Adobe CS3. We left CS2 on the computers. We could not scan using CS3 Photoshop (though CS2 still worked) and so upgraded the scanner drivers. Now none of the computers will recognize the scanners. Not with Epson Scan, not with Photoshop, not with Image Capture. I spent 90 minutes on the phone with Epson support. Uninstalled everything. Reinstalled. Still no recognition. The About This Mac shows that the computer knows the scanner is there. Hooking up the scanner to a laptop with 10.4 and the same driver proves that the scanner works. The computer is missing the Scanner Monitor and com.apple.scan (whatever that is... Epson said to search for it). Thus, Epson says it is a problem with Leopard allowing the driver to install properly. And, of course, they've never heard of this before. But it is happening with 6 computers, hooked up to six 2450 scanners. The V350 scanners are working fine with the new driver. Help?!?!? I have students climbing the wall because they can't scan (me, too!).

While Apple and Epson and HP and Adobe fight it out over whose "fault" this all is, many people have circumvented the whole issue by using the VueScan driver
http://www.hamrick.com/
which works with just about every scanner ever made and which was 10.5 compatible almost from day one.
Although my Epson 2400 works fine under 10.5 using the Epson software, there is still no working TWAIN driver (that I am aware of) that will allow importing from PS CS3.

Yosemite and epson scan

After upgrading to Yosemite (from Snow Leopard) I downloaded the compatible version of Epson Scan from their website. I have an Epson Perfection V700. The scan performs the preview successfully, but when I try the full scan, it starts, shows the time bar and then aborts, sending a report to Apple. I have downloaded several times. After speaking to Epson they maintain their software is fine and on their suggestion I have run disk utility to repair any disk problems, and also run permissions repair. I have even downloaded Yosemite again (takes 6-7 hours because of slow connection) but to no avail. I have no software updates outstanding. I would try using my Macbook Pro but unfortunately that is away being repaired for the graphics board problem. I had a further look at the community and following this went into system preferences and selected scanners. If I then select the scanner and click on open, the resulting scanner frame will allow me to preview and then scan the image successfully. Why can I do this here and not within the downloaded Epson program? I want to use the Epson program because of the extra facilities available in this software.

Firstly, do you have a Scan Settings app somewhere in the Epson Software folder in Applications? if you do, then check that your scanner is actually selected in this. If this doesn't work or the Scan Settings app is not present then try Image Capture as this is almost idemtical to the scan tool that is in the Epson interface and, I think, also allows you to select the device to be used. If these steps fail, try going to this link and download Epson Scan. Enter your device type (All-in-one), then the model and then the operating system (use OSX Intel as anything else will not give you the Scan software). I have found Epson's own Scan to be much better than the scan tool that Apple provide via the Apple Update service. The link is for a European site so may not work if you are not in Europe but it is the only location I could find that still allows you to find and download many of the Epson drivers and other software - most tell you to get things via Apple Update.

My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management

I have recently purchased a Mac computer (updated to Maverick) to go with my Epson Stylus Photo RX500 printer which has given excellent service with my old Windows computer. However, when trying to print pictures or photos via Photoshop Elements 11, the best results I can get are using the Colour Management and Epson Colour controls in the printing options box.
My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management, The only way I can reset the controls is to shut down the printer and computer and restart.
Could there may be a setting somewhere that I need to adjust please? I have been in touch with Epson and they say that the Epson Colour controls are part of the Photoshop Elements software but a post on the Adobe forum brought no results and I am unable to contact Adobe.
<Edited by Host>

Hello Garry. Thanks for the reply. I guess I should have used a different title from "How do I post a question?" That should come after trying to resolved the colour settings first. However, to answer your question, after experimenting with all the different settings in Photoshop Elements and Epson software, I now start with PSE11 Colour settings then click "no colour management" then after clicking Print, I choose "More Options/Colour Management/Colour Handling/Printer Manages Colour" then I choose "Page Setup/Layout/Colour Matching" which then shows Epson Colour Controls but I also choose "Layout/Colour Management" which then shows "Colour Controls/Mode" I then of course choose an Epson printer profile depending on the paper I am using. I get good results but as I said, the Colour Matching and Colour Controls are then greyed out. Hope that makes sense.

I have an HP Photosmart 8200 and and Epson Artisan 800 printer and neither one is showing up in my printer selection any more. How do I get these back?

I have a MacBook Pro that came with Mac OS 10.7 Lion on it, and had been printing on both an HP Photosmart 8200 and an Epson Artisan 800. I had an issue where I would print from Photoshop and every time I would print I'd need to make a new printer. I don't think that it was ONLY WAY, but it worked for me. Anyways, I finally got tired of scrolling down the list to choose the new printer – HP Photosmart 8200_23 – or something like that, so I deleted some of the printers that had extra numbers. This is where the print Print & Scan dialog in the system prefs has the little plus and minus. It turns out that I pressed the minus on everything - going overboard with my clicks. Now, I have NO PRINTER and each time my computer tries to download drivers from HP and Epson, they have no updates for me. When I go on there website there are no drivers for Mac 10.7. I have no idea how to get my printers back. Any ideas or assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Erik Jurado

Photoshop CS3 and Epson printer

I have PS CS3 with an Epson 4000 running on windows XP. I know Adobe is aware of a problem in which under some circumstances, (when you use roll paper) PS will print a smaller image off center and displaying in the interface the portrait mode despite me clicking landscape. I also know Adobe has a technote that offers solutions (I am already using version 10.0.1 with Bridge 2.1.1.9. Also solutions 2,3, and 4 on the tech notes have not worked. I tried different combinations and permutations of settings to no avail. Now I work on CS3 on the image, save it, and print it on CS2 which I kept on my computer, and has no problems printing. Can you please keep this as an on-going problem, since it has not been solved yet? Any feedback on this? There are a lot of Epson printer out there, and printing for a photographer is absolutely important. Thanks.

Have spent hours with both Adobe and Epson support people. I've read several of these forums. Is there an insurmountable problem with CS3 and Epson (2200/2400 are mine)? I have the Leopard patches and upgrade 10.5.4.
With Photoshop managing the color I get prints that are slightly underexposed and carry a pink cast. Color management is off. With the printer managing the color I get prints that are too green and dark. Epson advice here is to have color management off. There are two other choices for management but to adjust a perfectly balanced print to the printer's whim seem like cruel punishment.
Have a calibrated monitor and my CS2 works beautifully. Perhaps the best idea is to just go back to CS2 until Adobe and Epson can decide what to do. According to Adobe people, the CS3 gives much of the management back to Epson. According to Epson -- with CS3, you should choose the printer to manage the color (since this seems to be the trend between the two companies) but we users are not happy with the results.
What is the solution for right now?

Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with re

Color management help needed for adobe CS5 and Epson printer 1400-Prints coming out too dark with reddish cast and loss of detail
System: Windows 7
Adobe CS5
Printer: Epson Stylus Photo 1400
Paper: Inkjet matte presentation paper with slight luster
Installed latest patch for Adobe CS5
Epson driver up to date
After reading solutions online and trying them for my settings for 2 days I am still unable to print what I am seeing on my screen in Adobe CS5. I calibrated my monitor, but am not sure once calibration is saved if I somehow use this setting in Photoshop’s color management.
The files I am printing are photographs of dogs with lots of detail I digitally painted with my Wacom tablet in Photoshop CS5 and then printed with Epson Stylus 1400 on inkjet paper 20lb with slight luster.
My Printed images lose a lot of the detail & come out way to dark with a reddish cast and loss of detail when I used these settings in the printing window:
Color Handling: Photoshop manages color, Color management -ICM, OFF no color adjustment.
When I change to these settings in printer window: Color Handling: Printer manages color. Color management- Color Controls, 1.8 Gamma and choose Epson Standard it prints lighter, but with reddish cast and very little detail and this is the best setting I have used so far.
Based on what I have read on line, I think the issue is mainly to do with what controls are set in the Photoshop Color Settings window and the Epson Printer preferences. I have screen images attached of these windows and would appreciate knowing what you recommend I enter for each choice.
Also I am confused as to what ICM color management system to use with this printer and CS5:
What is the best ICM to use with PS CS5 & the Epson 1400 printer? Should I use the same ICM for both?
Do I embed the ICM I choose into the new files I create?
Do I view all files in the CS5 workspace in this default ICM?
Do I set my monitor setting to the same ICM?
If new file opens in CS5 workspace and it has a different embedded profile than my workspace, do I convert it?
Do I set my printer, Monitor and PS CS5 color settings to the same ICM?
Is using the same ICM for all devices what is called a consistent workflow?
I appreciate any and all advice that can be sent my way on this complicated issue. Thank you in advance for your time and kind help.

It may be possible to figure out by watching a Dr.Brown video on the subject of color printing. Adobe tv
I hope this may help...............

Color Management, Photoshop CS3 and Epson Inkjet Printer

I have been down this road before but here goes again...
Im using Photoshop CS3.
Im printing on an Epson Stylus Photo RX680 using Photo quality inkjet paper.
I know this printer is capable of very good quality prints.
Thing is I can not figure out the correct combination of color management settings to get a decent print out of Photoshop or InDesign.
I have read that you are supposed to turn off all printer color management and let Adobe manage the color. Doesnt seem to work.
I just get overly magenta images that look awful.
If I let the Epson color management control color I can get a lot closer but the print out is far from accurate or high quality.
So what the heck IS the correct protocol for printing to an Epson inkjet printer from an Adobe app.
BTW, I do seem to get a fairly decent print out of something like a PDF which I understand does its own postscript conversion before hitting the printer.
Is this what my issue is?
Does Photoshop or InDesign require postscript ripper software to get decent results out of an inkjet printer?

Have spent hours with both Adobe and Epson support people. I've read several of these forums. Is there an insurmountable problem with CS3 and Epson (2200/2400 are mine)? I have the Leopard patches and upgrade 10.5.4.

I use MACBOOK , APPLE AIRPORT AND EPSON PRINTER. I AAM GETTING MESSAGE "PRINTER OFFLINE". PRINTER WORKS WELL AND INTERNET WORKS WELL. How can I get printer to respond

I use a macbook, apple airport and epson printer. After several printer jobs, I get a message "printer offline". I have tried restarting computer. restarting printer and still cannot connect, I can print directly with a USB cable. How can I connect to my printer via the airport?

Delete the printer in System Preferences and re-add it. You may also want to restart the Airport.

HT4356 What printers beside HP will work continuously with an i-pad? I tried Canon and Epson and both time-out after a short time, requiring the user to re-initialize. This defeats the idea of a wireless printer, Thanks Art

What printers besides Hp will work continuously with an i-pad? I tried Canon and Epson and both time-out after a short period of time rerquiring the user to re-initialize, which defeats the purpose of wireless printing. Please help, Apple can not. Thanks to all. Art

Canon support told me that the I-pad printer driver would not work with any printer, including HP. They offered to fix the problem for $50. I turned them down.
If they really could fix the problem, they must be saying to update the printers firmware. Look on the cannon website & update the priners firmware. While you at it, update the routers firmware.
What printer do you have?

Photoshop CS5 and Epson 9900, Win 7, 64bits

Hi,
I recently upgraded from photoshop cs3 to cs5 and now all of my prints on epson 9900 large format printer come out too dark. The same pictures printed with cs3 look good but not on cs5. How can I fix it? Is there a patch for this issue on Adobe website? Just to clarify: same image printed on CS3 looks good but printed with CS5 looks too dark. It can't be the printer driver issue since there is one driver for both version of Photoshop (6.62, most recent).
I have Photoshop CS5 and Epson 9900, Windows 7, 64bits.
I have "Photoshop manages colors" selected and "no color management" for printer - I know the proper set up, I've been doing this for quite some time, so it's definitely not the settings issue or media profile issue. Well, the same settings are use with CS3 and CS5 but results are different, that's why I think it's photoshop's fault. If I can't print color managed prints than CS5 is useless to me.
Any ideas? I have seen post reg. this but no solution and they go back few years back. Has Adobe finally addressed the issue?
Please, help.

Hi Chris,
I have the latest patch 12.0.4 but it does not solve the problem. What kind of "user error" are you talking about? As I stated before: I use the same settings in both version of PS: photshop manages color, printer profile: my canvas media profile, BPC: on. In print settings: mode: custom (off, no color adjustment), media type: my canvas type. There is no room for "user error" here.
As for driver bugs: are you referring to Epson driver? I have the latest driver v6.62. What else can I do? Did i skip something?
Well, of course I'm using Windows (64bits), so I guess there is lots of room for error there, right , but I don't think it's OS since it prints fine in CS3 but not in CS5.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

OSX Lion and Epson perfection 2450 scanner

Wich program shall i use to scan my pictures?

I was in the same boat with my Epson 4180 scanner. Luckily your little trick saved the day and I was able to get something scanned and printed through Preview. I had previously spent a lot of time downloading and installing the updates which did no good, Lion still won't let me use it.
Then I read about opening it through System Preferences and thought I'd found the answer, but that didn't work either. Thanks for your post as it was very helpful to me.

Barbara Brundage, can you help with PS Elements 11 and Epson R2000 printer issue?

Seeking help with PS Elements 11 which does not work with Epson r2000 printer. Epson tech support could not fix, said it is PS e11 problem. Receive prompt on PS e11 screen when I try to print stating "not compatible or settings are not correct. Have set PS to manage color and printer manages color to off. Would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.

Hi,
Sincerely appreciate your help. Running Windows 7 on a Dell XPS420. System has been very stable for years. Before purchasing the Epson r2000, I owned an r1800 which was an excellent printer but after seven years started to exhibit paper feed problems. The r1800 worked with all applications and I was well satisfied with the saturation, contrast, etc. printing mostly 8x10 and 11x17 prints.
Thank you for the information about the # of installs for PS E11, will try uninstall/reinstall this morning.
Will let you know how things go.
