Printer Error - Epson 3880 & LR and talking with each other?

I am trying to use the Epson 3880 with LR; however, I get a printer error every time I try to print. The error shows up in the printer status and is immediate.
The printer works fine with iPhoto.
It is connected and the Utility is speaking with printer.
I have downloaded the most recent drivers (which haven't been updated by Epson in awhile.)
I have the color being managed by the printer.
What else could it be?
I am very new to this and could use some help.
Thank you in advance.

I suppose that can’t hurt to reinstall.
Do you have a 2nd machine you can try as well?
One thing you might try is logging in as another user and seeing if you can print. IF so, then there’s something in the original log-in Library that’s an issue. I think (I’m not sure) that the driver should be accessible for all users. If however, you can’t print as another user, then its something in the main system that’s at fault here.
You could also try resetting CUPs (the printer system) if you feel comfortable in Terminal. In Terminal type:
sudo cupsd

I have two location one is Delhi(IP-192.168.100.*) and another is Mumbai(IP-192.168.1.*) and both are connected by MPLS line and ping with each other.
We have one DC in Delhi location and domain name is CAPLDC and Delhi location all PC is member of this domain and working properly.
now i am trying join the Mumbai location PC with my Domain(CAPLDC) but they are not join with my DC and generate the error.
I have chek the DNS and nslookup all are correct but this is generate error.
Is this possible Mumbai location join with this Domain(CAPLDC)???
One more thing when i have created another DC with this name (papldc.com) then Mumbai location is joined properly.
Pls find the error message below and also find the attachment.
Note: This information is intended for a network administrator. If you are not your network's administrator, notify the administrator that you received this information, which has been recorded in the file C:\Windows\debug\dcdiag.txt.
The domain name "capldc" might be a NetBIOS domain name. If this is the case, verify that the domain name is properly registered with WINS.
If you are certain that the name is not a NetBIOS domain name, then the following information can help you troubleshoot your DNS configuration.
DNS was successfully queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for domain "capldc":
The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.capldc
The following domain controllers were identified by the query:
capldcserver.capldc
win-dyfq2poc88q.capldc
However no domain controllers could be contacted.
Common causes of this error include:
- Host (A) or (AAAA) records that map the names of the domain controllers to their IP addresses are missing or contain incorrect addresses.
- Domain controllers registered in DNS are not connected to the network or are not running.

Why are you using a single labeled domain? I would recommend renaming the domain name to be something like domain.com.

Link Group and Wiki with each other as follow-up

Hi,
I have a Wiki in place on the MAVS and a group as well. I, however, didn't create the wiki through the button "Create wiki for Group" in the group-management from server.app.
I would like to link the wiki with the group so that the button "Create Wiki for Group" in server.app's group-managements page disappears.
How is that possible?

I posted this question about a month ago, but got no replies.
Can anyone help with the above question? Basically I have an Airport Extreme base station and two Airport Expresses set up in a triangle formation. I would like the two Expresses to pick up the signal from the Extreme
base station AS WELL AS from each other. That way I have some overlap/redundancy to decrease the frequency of lost signals if one Express loses the signal from the Extreme base station but not from the other Express.

8500A Plus prints two sided. Each side prints to edge so neither will align with each other

What setting could I be overlooking?
I have a 8500A Plus with the Two-sided Printing Accessory installed. I'm using it as a wireless printer from a Macbook Pro, using ADOBE Acrobat 9, both 100% and fit to page have an alignment issue.
I want to print a two sided document, one page per side, orientation landscape, both sides same size, align on both sides center (or at least align back-to-back). But whatever I try, it gets printed "binding top" which renders the header on one side back-to-back with the footer on the other side.
This is important to my production as a graphic designer. Please help.

Hi @Psyclist,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that your paper is getting stuck in you ADF when using the Duplex Scanning Mode, on your HP Officejet 8500A Plus printer. I am happy to help!
The best guide, I was able to find during my searching, is this guide, When Using the Automatic Document Feeder, an 'Original Jam: Clear jam, and then press OK' Message Di....
I would try following that through, and please let me know what happens!

All contacts doubled or tipled and mixed with each other!

All my contacts and my fiancee's contacts on her phone went screwy since the last time we synced our phones. We never even sync our contacts ever - it's unchecked in iTunes, yet somehow we have all our contacts doubled or tripled and mixed up. For example there will be 3 "John Smith" contacts, one might be correct, but another will have a wrong address, phone number, e-mail, company etc. It's totally random and there's no consistency to the screw up.
I did just get mobile me when I upgraded to the iPhone 4 (my fiancee didn't get a mobile me subscription) so I'm wondering if mobileme somehow screwed up my contacts? But if so, how did they screw hers up?
Does anyone know how to fix this? or at least prevent it from happening again? As it stands now, I'm asking everyone on facebook and in my e-mail to re-send me their contact info. grrr.

Graham,
For the iPad, iMac you need to create verifyible e-mail addresses created with one of the providers such as Yahoo, Gmail,etc. For the iphone you should use it's phone number, but an e-mail could be used for it too. If you want to associate these e-mail addresses with a single ID, I'm including a link to give you info about how you can do that. Read it carefully, as it can be a bit confusing.

IPod as a conduit to sync iCal and Outlook 2003 with each other?

I am able to synchronize my work Outlook 2003 calendar and home Mac iCal with the iPod in two separate files on the iPod. I can see them both if I select "All". My questions are:
1. What should I do to sync the PC and the Mac with the same file on the iPod?
2. Is it possible to snychronize the iCal and Outlook with each other via the iPod?
Thanks,
Iris
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5) PC/XP Pro

If you mount your iPod on your Mac, navgate to the iPod Calendars folder and double-click on an ics file it will import the calendar into iCal. So you can sync from the PC to the iPod to iCal uni-directionally. If Outlook 2003 can import an ics file then you should be able to sync the other way as well. However, in both cases you will essentially be copying over one calendar with another, not really synchronizing.

HP 2000 Notebook PC -- Extended display monitor and built-in screen swapping with each other.

I have an extended display monitor connected to my notebook and every so often without any warning the displays will flicker to black screens, and then quickly swap back and forth with each other 2 - 3 times, usually resuming the way it began. Entire event lasts maybe 10 - 15 seconds total but during that time I have no control of my PC. Anyone know how to stop this from occuring or what is causing it to happen? Thanks for any assistance with this issue .
HP 2000 Notebook PC - Product # : D1E80UA#ABA - AMD Radeon HD 6310 Graphics Windows 8.1 64-bit system.

I'll try helping,
If the flickering is seen in the extended display
I think the issue may be with driver then,
First
Uninstall the AMD graphic driver from Device manager - Display adapter , Control panel.
shut down laptop
then try a hard reset
this might help you in that-
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01684768&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_us...
then,
Tap away at the ESC key as you power on the notebook again to launch the Start-up Menu and then select F10 to enter the bios menu.
Press F5 to load the defaults (sometimes F9, the menu at the bottom will show the correct key )
use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Press F10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Let Windows fully load - just let this complete.
Then,
download, saving & install the latest AMD HD Driver from your product website here:

Photoshop suddenly does not print to Epson 3880 - PROBLEM: Cannot print from Photoshop After restart error message appears: - "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopen

PROBLEM: Cannot print from Photoshop
After restart error message appears:
— “There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents.”
• All print commands are greyed out and unavailable — even to call up the printer commands cannot be done.
The printer printed fine until about 2 weeks ago when this error message appeared. Printing continues from Pages, I-photo, preview etc. — only Photoshop fails.
The printer has been turned on and off, as have open documents been closed and open etc.. Preferences reset. Repeatedly I have read through blogs and forums and attempted to contact Adobe — all without results
Epson support struggled to find reason and several solutions were tried and they assume this is an Adobe problem.
Running Mac Powerbook X 10.10.2 / Photoshop CS6 13.0.6.x64

What Adobe support will be of help.

Getting printing error while issuing the excise invoice with cust. O/P type

Hi,
I have created a custom output type and form and tried to issue it with the transaction J1IS. But it is always giving me error saying "Printing Error". I checked and didn't find any error in the SAP Script.
Thanks,
srinivas.

Hi,
The error could be due to various reasons.A good starting point though would be to check if your page margins do not exceed the printer boundary.
Regards,

I have a nearly identical problem with my Ipad 3. Mine is the left channel. I've yet to find help, but have found a number of other posts on this and other forums discussing the issue. People have tried restore, reset etc. Also, cleaning the ports with compressed air or cotton swabs. It appears to be a software issue, but no one is sure.
Along with the original poster, I'd appreciate any help.
As far as the 'level 6' poster, if you're going to be rude, please don't bother. Hope it was just a bad day.

I have a iMac and i just updated the computer to Yosemite. I have Photoshop CS5 and when I try to print under print size --- manage custom size , photoshop unexpectedly quits every time. I updated the printer drivers (epson 9880) uninstalled and installed all the drivers. restarted computer and it is still doing the same thing. Cant find any costumer service here either except forums.

I have exactly the same problem - Whenever I go to Print, the print widow appears, it thinks about it for a bit (rotating symbol) and then quits.
This is the beginning of the problem details, cut and paste. It goes on much longer than this:

Can aim users and .mac users video/audio chat with each other?

today was a crazy day with ichat. two of my friends were able to video chat 1 on 1. my mac is qualified to handle 3-way or 4-way chats. when they invite me, the bubble pops up. i hit accept and the loading spindle keeps on spinning for minutes until it just denies me entrance. they get an error saying i never accepted, so as soon as they invite me, they don't get any other response back.
could it be that i am on the AIM network and both of them are on the .mac network?
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9) 1.8ghz, 1.5gig ram, 3rd party camcorder, latest iChat. router installed.

can aim users and .mac users video/audio chat with each other?
Yes. Apple does not have its own publicly available IM service; iChat uses the AIM network, and there are few functional differences between AIM and .Mac screen names. If they are using a client other than iChat, there may be interoperability issues with audio and video chats, or the other client may not support those types of chatting.

How do I Help Apple Care Stop Warring with Each Other and Fix the Problem with My iPhone that They Acknowledge Creating?

How Do I Help Apple US & Apple Europe Stop Warring With Each Other And Fix The Problem They Created?
PROBLEM
Apple will not replace, as promised, the iPhone 5 (A1429 GSM model) that they gave me in London, UK, with an iPhone 5 (A1429 CDMA model).
BACKGROUND
My iPhone 5 (A1429 CDMA model) was purchased this year in September on an existing Verizon Wireless (VZW) line using an upgrade. The purchase took place in California and the product was picked up using Apple Personal Pickup through the Cerritos Apple Retail Store. I will refer to this phone at my "original" phone.
The original phone was taken into the Apple Store Regent Street in London, England, UK on November 15, 2012. The reason for this visit was that my original phone's camera would not focus.
The Apple Store Regent Street verified there was a hardware problem but was unable to replace the part.
The Apple Store Regent Street had me call the US AppleCare. At first they denied support, but then a supervisor, name can be provided upon request, approved the replacement of my original phone with an iPhone 5 (A1429 GSM model) as a temporary solution until I got back in the US. And approved that the GSM model would be replaced with a CDMA model when I came back to the US. I will refer to the GSM model as the "replacement". They gave me the case number --------.
The Apple Store Regent Street gave me the replacement and took the original. The first replacement did not work for reasons I do not understand. They switched out the replacement several times until they got one that worked on the T-Mobile nano SIM card that I had purchased in England, UK. Please refer to the repair IDs below to track the progression of phones given to me at the Apple Store Regent Street:
Repair ID ----------- (Nov 15)
Repair ID ----------- (Nov 16)
Repair ID ----------- (Nov 16)
The following case number was either created in the UK or France between November 15 to November 24. Case number -----------
On November 19, 2012, I went to France and purchased an Orange nano SIM card. The phone would not activate like the first two repair IDs above.
On November 24, 2012, I went to the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps. The Genius told me that my CDMA phone should not have been replaced with a GSM model in the UK and that this was clearly Apple's fault. They had me call the AppleCare UK.
My issue was escalated to a tier 2 UK AppleCare agent. His contact information can be provided upon request. He gave me the case number -----------.
The UK tier 2 agent became upset when he heard that I was calling from France and that the France Apple Store or France AppleCare were not helping me. He told me that my CDMA phone should not have been replaced with a GSM model in the UK and that this was clearly Apple's fault.
The UK tier 2 agent said he was working with engineers to resolve my problem and would call me back the next day on November 25, 2012.
While at the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps, a Genius switched the phone given to from repair ID ----------- with a new one that worked with the French nano SIM card.
Also, while at the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps, I initiated a call with AppleCare US to get assistance because it seems that AppleCare UK was more upset that France was not addressing the issue rather than helping me. I have email correspondance with the AppleCare US representative.
A Genius at the Apple Store Les Quatre Temps switched the replacement with a new GSM model that worked on the French SIM card but would not work if restored, received a software update, or had the SIM card changed. This is the same temporary solution I received from the Apple Store Regent Street in the UK.
By this point, I had spent between 12-14 hours in Apple Store or on the phone with an AppleCare representative.
Upon arriving in the US, I went to my local Apple Store Brea Mall to have the replacement switched with a CDMA model. They could not support me. He told me that my CDMA phone should not have been replaced with a GSM model in the UK and that this was clearly Apple's fault. My instructions were to call AppleCare US again.
My call with AppleCare US was escalated to a Senior Advisor, name can be provided upon request, and they gave me the case number -----------. After being on the phone with him for over an hour, his instructions were to call the Apple Store Regent Street and tell them to review my latest notes. They were to process a refund for a full retail priced iPhone 5 64BG black onto my credit card so that I could use that money to buy a new iPhone 5 64GB black at the Apple Store Brea Mall to reoslve the problem.
The Apple Store Regent Street did not process my refund. He, name can be provided upon request, told me that the AppleCare US did not do a good job reviewing my case, that they were incapable of getting to the bottom of it like they were, and instructed me to call AppleCare US and tell them to review this case number and this repair id. I asked if he read the notes from the AppleCare US Senior Advisor and he would not confirm nor deny. When I offered to give him the case number he accepted but it seemed like would do no good. Our call was disconnected. When I tried calling back the stores automated system was turned on and I could not get back through.
Now I have the full retail price of an iPhone 5 64GB black CDMA on my credit card and Apple will not process the refund as they said they would.
I've, at this point, spent between 14-16 hours at Apple Stores or on the phone with AppleCare representatives, and still do not have the problem resolved.
SOLUTION
AppleCare US and AppleCare Europe need to resolve their internal family issues without further impacting their customers.
Apple is to process a refund to my credit card for the cost of a full retail priced iPhone 5 64GB black.

I have an iPhone 5 (A1429 CDMA model) that works in the US on VZW as it did before I received the replacement phone in the UK.
Apple covers the cost of the solution because I did not create the problem.
Apple resolves their internal issue without costing me more time, energy, or money.
This becomes a case study for AppleCare so that future customers are not impacted like I have been by their support system.
Does anyone have recommendations for me?
Thank you!

Thanks, but I've been on the phone with AppleCare US (where I am and live) and AppleCare UK. They continue bouncing me back and forth without helping resolve the problem.
Perhaps someones knows how to further escalate the issue at Apple?

I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business. The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me. Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts. Please advise me on the steps necessary for removing these duplicates and establishing a syncing solution that doesn't regenerate the duplicates. There are several applications available that remove duplicates, but I am not sure which ones work or don't work. I want information on this, but most importantly I want to understand how to fix this problem permanently. Also, I read somewhere that Mac's new operating system, Lion, can help deal with duplicates. I don't have Lion, but I would be willing to get it, if this would fix the problem.

Had the same problem with 4 devices (two computers, an iPhone and an iPod). The solution is simple: open the Address Book application in your mac, ask it to locate duplicate entries (under one of the top menu items, "edit" I think), and then ask it to consolidate them: it took me all of three seconds after I figured it out: worked like a charm! PS: if you have more than one mac with unconected Address Books, repeating the operation in the second one may be a good idea.

I have two apple id's because my hotmail account is no longer active. How can I delete the old one and use or update the new one? Every time I try it won't allow me and now my iPad thinks there are two accounts and they are arguing with each other. Help!

You can't merge accounts or copy content to a different account, so anything that you bought or downloaded via the old account is tied to that account - so any updates that those apps get you will only be able to download via that account. You can change which account is logged in on the iPad via Settings > Store
