Printing fails on Epson C62 using OS 10.6 but successful using OS 10.4

When I tried to print a document using Gutenprint 5.2.3.99.1 as driver for my Epson C62 printing failed with a message: "The PPD version is not compatible with Gutenprint 5.2 3.99.1". I tried printing a jpeg photo and got the same message. I successfully printed the document and photo on another iMac using OS 10.4.11. This problem started after I upgraded from OS 10.5 to OS 10.6.
Please help.

You've probably tried, but their site suggests:
Q: I don’t see my printer driver on the Epson Macintosh Snow Leopard Support page. Where can I find a Mac OS 10.6.x driver for my product?
A: Try the following:
Rosetta needs to be installed in Snow Leopard. If necessary, install Rosetta.
Go to Drivers & Support, select your product category, then select your product name.
Select Drivers & Downloads, then select Macintosh Operating Systems from the drop-down list and click Go.
Download the Macintosh 10.5.x drivers for your product.
Note: If there are no Macintosh OS X 10.5.x drivers available for your product, download and install the Macintosh OS X 10.4.x drivers and the Common Updater software for your product.
Follow the on screen instructions to finish the driver installation.
Make sure Rosetta is intstalled.

My c309a printer can't communicate wirelessly with my laptop but it used to.

My HP C309a is not communicating with my cell phone or my laptop computer. It was fine until a few days ago when I stuck in a camera memory stick it and printed pictures. The pictures printed just fine (as they have in the past), but a few days later my children tried to print something and the printer wouldnot respond. When I looked at it, it said "This usb device is not compatible" The wierd thing is that there were not any devices in at that time. I figured it must have had something to do with the pictures I had printed. So I turned off the printer and turned it back on. But it was still giving the same message. So I unplugged it from the wall. This time it worked and my children were able to print from the desk top computer. But today I tried to print from my laptop and it never printed. I went to Windows Printers and devices and it said that the printer was off line. There was was an exclaimation mark next to my laptop icon. I clicked it and it said that there was a problem with the printer, that the drivers were missing. So i got the original cd that came with the printer and I uninstalled and then reinstalled the software. All was fine until I went to set up the wireless settings. It would not work. I then tried to set up the printer on my new Droid cell phone and it said that there were no wireless printers found. Therefore I think its the bluetooth in the printer itself. Is there anything I can do to fix it. I've only had the printer for about 10 mos. Help please!
I appreciate any input you can give in this matter.
Sincerely
LaDonna Hall-Gamble

OK, I think you are trying to connect the printer wirelessly to your wireless router, right?
I think that is the way to go, so let's do that:
1. Restart the router by pulling its power cord momentarily. Let it restart.
2. On the front of the printer go to Setup > Wireless (or Netowrk, not sure) > Wireless Setup Wizard. Run the Wizard to connect your printer to your router.
3. After that, go to Control Panel > Devices & Printers and delete all instances of the printer.
4. Finally re-add the printer with these instructions:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and connected to your network. Verify that you can access the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address before continuing. Get its IP from a Network Test printed from the front panel of the printer.
2. Click >> Start >> Control panel >> Devices & Printers.
3. Click the Add a printer
4. Select Local printer
5. Select Create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP Port and click Next button.
6. Under Device type, select TCP/IP Device. Under Hostname or IP address, enter the printer's IP address. Click Next.
7. Select Hewlett-Packard from the list of manufacturers and select and select your printer model. Click Next.
If your printer model was not listed, then select Have Disk, browse the HP CD that came with your printer and select the first file that starts with hp and ends with inf. Click Open then OK. Select your printer model. Click Next.
8. If you are asked, use the currently installed driver.
9. It will ask for the Printer name -- enter a new name or use the existing one. This will be the name of the printer that you select from other applications.
10. You may be asked to share the printer. Choose NO.
11. The Print Test Page box appears. Go ahead and print it.
12. Click Finish.

My ipad charges using the usb plug but not using the wall charger. The wall charger works with my wife's ipad2

My ipad2 only charges with the usb plug. It does not charge with the wall charger, My wife's ipad2 does charge with the same wall charger.

Stephen-
Your iPad may have a defective cable. Try your Wife's and see it it makes a difference.
I don't know if iPod and iPhone cables are compatible with iPad, but could you have switched by accident?
Fred

HT201302 What if I dont use a USB cable but rather use wi-fi ?

I read all the instruction but there are none for wi-fi. I need to move images from my iPhone to iPhoto.

Wifi Syncing will not transfer pictures from iPhone to the computer.
Dropbox is a Cloud based service. Its basically a service that gives you a specified amount of storage space in their servers, and you can upload files to it, and then download from it.
There is an App in the App Store for it.
What you do is upload the files to a server on the internet, which you can then access form your PC.
Wifi Photo Transfer Apps let you skip the upload and subsequent download steps to and from the cloud server by transferring directly to the computer.
Again search for Wifi Photo Transfer.

Cannot Print with my Epson Printers

I am unable to print from my Epson 2200 (firewire) or 1270 (USB), though I used to have no problem. I have engaged Epson in my struggle to correct it, and they have finally "given up" on me. But I know several things from working with them over the past 2 weeks:
-It is not the printers, they work fine.
-It is not the cables or where the cables are connected. I have used both firewire and USB with the 2200.
-The Epson Printer Utility only works sporadically. It mostly hangs up (multicolored spinning wheel) when I want to do a nozzle check, will not force quit, and even doesn't allow me to shut down computer. There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason as to when it will or will not work.
-I have removed epson files and reinstalled drivers using OS 10.4 install disk.
-When I go to print, the "job" shows up in the queue, but will not print.
I Hope some genius out there has an answer.
Thanks much.

I am having the same problem with my HP LaserJet 1200. It worked fine up until installing the new Security Update. I don't know if this is just coincidence, or not. I even tried printing from my pristine Test user account, and it also just shows a progress bar that keeps spinning, saying Printing Job, but nothing happens. Please help.

IChat AV 3.1.9 (v446) HOW 2 USE IT? - NEVER USED IT - I'D LIKE 2 USE IT!

Till today, I separately use msn messenger and yahoo messenger. I'd like to only use iChat AV 3.1.9 (v446) I already have installed but got no idea how to use it.
When I click iChat the Buddy List window opens together with AOL Instant Messenger Login which informs me that "iChat was unable to login to the AOL Instant Messenger service because your screen name or password was incorrect." In the Login ID section there's my every day used e-mail; [email protected] and the password section is empty. The thing is that I got no idea when I gave those info to AOL and I can't remember my password... so I can't login.
Then I go to iChat preferences, click Accounts and I see 3 of them. The first one is an AOL Instant Messenger account named George Nikas, the second another AOL Instant Messenger account and the third another Bonjour account. At the last account I open My Address Book Card and among my info I also see an e-mail I have never used (created like all the other info ages ago); [email protected]
As I said in the first paragraph I'd like to use iChat, rearrange all my info and delete anything which isn't useful.
1) I would like to edit my .Mac account but how?
2) Also edit my AIM and Bonjour account. Maybe delete one of them? (As I said I found two AIM accounts). How?
3) Embody my msn and yahoo messengers in iChat.
Please don't laugh at all my stupid questions!
I KNOW I'M A MESS AND SOUND LIKE A CHILD!
THANK GOD THERE'S APPLE DISCUSSIONS.
THANX A LOT!
George Nikas

Hi,
The Detailed Version http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/versions/ichat3/howtos3.html
Use the Second menu for the first three items.
iChat 3 can login in to one AIM Buddy List and one Jabber List and the Bonjour option giving you a max of three Buddy Lists at any one time.
AIM Screen Names and Apple IDs (Email type for @mac.com or MobileMe) can be used for the AIM Buddy List.
GoogleTalk is a Jabber Server and can be made to work in iChat 3
You Can have other Jabber IDs from other servers.
If you have more than one AIM valid name or Jabber account set up in iChat 3 then you have to Log one out before you Login another.
There is only ever one Bonjour list if you have Enabled this and it is essentially Mac to Mac only on your LAN.
This can only be edited as such via your Address Book.
It uses the Name on the "My Card" to send that as your Buddy Name to other Macs on your LAN.
IF there are other Macs on your LAN with iChat Open and Bonjour Enabled then you will see people as their own Address Book Entry
If you cannot remember telling AIM your Hotmail Email name (It is possible to register Email IDs as Screen Names at AIM) then it would be best to delete that Account in iChat > Preferences > Accounts (Highlight then use the Minus button lower left).
For your @Mac.com type name you may get some Progress here https://iforgot.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/DSiForgot.woa/wa
Type in the @Mac.com name and you will be led through the retrieval Process.
However it may want to send the response to an Email address you no Longer have access to.
(and just to complicate things you can't change the reply Email address until you have access to the Account).
Summary
For 1) try the Paragraph above.
For 2) just delete the Hotmail name as an AIM name. You cannot edit the Bonjour Stuff in iChat but can change your Name in the Address Book (This will also effect Mail as it "Sends" your Name as part of the Headers linked to the Email Address you use).
I have left 3) until now.
This can be done but only for Text Chats.
With a Jabber Account you do some background/workaround stuff that enables that Jabber account to login to what is called A Transport on an Jabber server that then links that Jabber ID to MSN or Yahoo.
Resources.
http://www.jabberes.org/servers/ A list of Jabber Servers and the options they have like Transports.
Some allow you to login via any other Jabber server (After your set it up you don't have to use the Jabber account but can use another such as GoogleTalk)
Instructions on how to make iChat use these Transports http://allforces.com/2005/05/06/ichat-to-msn-through-jabber/
As I have pointed out it pays to know which Jabber Server you are going to use first before doing this bit. The Instructions make more sense if you are doing it as you go.
Instructions for Getting your GoogleMail Account to work in iChat 3 http://google.com/support/chat/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=24076
These pics and Instructions are for iChat 3
If you have a GoogleMail ID (@Gmail.com or @Googlemail.com) then you have to go to your account settings at Google and Enable Talk first.
Hope this helps.

I am trying to print a color photo on my MacBook Pro from iPhoto (not using Photoshop) using Epson 2200 printer, and everything I do in the Color Matching and Print Settings results in a photo with a pink cast to it. What am I doing wrong?

I am trying to print a color photo on my MacBook Pro from iPhoto (not using Photoshop) using Epson 2200 printer, and everything I do in the Color Matching and Print Settings results in a photo with a pink cast to it. What am I doing wrong?

Have you checked the ink cartridges and made sure the nozzles are clear? Are you able to print from outside of iPhoto with the correct color?
Try the following: make temporary copy of the library and do the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

Problem using Print CD on Epson Stylus Photo RX700

I recently installed OS 10.5.1 (leopard) on my iMac (intel core duo) and my Epson Stylus Photo RX700 all-in-one printer appears to be working okay, except when I try to use the Print CD application, I get a message "Epson printer driver dealing with CD printing is not installed". I tried downloading updates from the epson.com site ( 1- Epson Easy Print v3.1bA for intel, 2- TWAIN Driver & Epson Scan Utility v3.02A, 3- Printer Driver v3.0aAS), but I still get the same message. Any suggestions? -Don

You need to add the Epson drivers from the OS X Install disk. Below is what Epson sent me. Note that when you re-add the Printers, there no longer is a Printer Set Up Utility, go into Preferences > Print & Fax and do it from there. Worked for me. Good Luck.
REMOVE FILES
1. Double click on the MAC HARD DRIVE.
2. Double click on the LIBRARY folder.
3. Double click on the PRINTERS folder.
4. Drag the EPSON folder to the trash can.
5. Close any open windows.
6. Double click on the MAC HARD DRIVE.
7. Double click on the LIBRARY folder.
8. Double click on the RECEIPTS folder.
9. Delete any EPSON receipts.
10. Close all open windows and restart your computer.
REINSTALL THE EPSON DRIVER PACKAGE
1. Insert your Mac OS X 10.4 Install disc. Open CD when it appears on the
desktop.
2. Find and double-click on the Optional Installs.mpkg.
3. After the installer opens, choose the following custom install options:
-Check PRINTER DRIVERS and use arrow next to this entry to expand this
category.
-Check EPSON below the PRINTER DRIVERS heading. (You do not need to
install other manufacturer's packages.)
4. Click INSTALL (or UPGRADE) and follow prompts to reinstall the resident
Epson printer driver package. Remove the OS CD and then restart the
computer after installation is complete.
READD THE PRINTER
1. Go into HD > Applications > Utilities and open the Printer Setup
Utility. The PRINTER LIST window appears.
2. Highlight and delete any existing references to your Epson printer. (If
you want to be thorough and do not have any other printers on the Mac,
choose PRINTER SETUP UTILITY from the top of the screen and RESET PRINTING
SYSTEM. Confirm resetting the system. This clears any existing printer
entries and queues. If you have other printers on the Mac and use this
reset, you will need to readd them later.)
3. Turn the printer OFF and back ON to make the Mac redetect it and add it
to the list automatically. (Do not change the PRINT USING field. Selecting
EPSON here would add a GIMP Print driver which does not support all of the
functions of the resident Epson driver. Epson does not support or recommend
these third party drivers.)
4. If you have other printers on the list, make the Epson entry the
default.
5. Close the Printer Setup Utility and try a test print from any OS X-based
application.
*NOTE: If the printer does not show up on the list, it may mean a lack of
detection. Ensure the printer is online (no red error lights) and connected
directly to the Mac. Try moving the cable end to other USB ports, if need
be. If you have not done so already, you can also try resetting the Printer
Setup Utility, as described above.
If you are working with a printer model which supports borderless and/or
roll paper printing options, you will be able to select these options in
the program you are printing from as you set up your print job.
1. Once you have an image or file open, go to File > Page Setup.
2. For FORMAT FOR select the Epson printer name (rather than ANY PRINTER)
3. Select the appropriate Paper Size. If your printer supports different
layout features, each paper size will have several different options. For
example, the 4x6 paper size will have an arrow pointing right which offers
choices of 4x6 Borderless, 4x6 Standard-Minimize Margins, etc. Pick the
paper type plus layout/margin option you want to use here.
4. Click OK on Page Setup. You are now ready to print.
