Printing to Stylus Photo 2200 At High Resolution Causes Color Shift

I recently upgraded to InDesign CS3, and I'm having color issues when printing to my Epson Stylus Photo 2200 using higher resolution settings.
From the Print dialog box I click the Printer button and choose Print Settings from the pull down menu. For Media Type I choose Enhanced Matte Paper and set the Print Quality to Photo - 1440.
When I print the file (a document I've printed successfully many times before) the grey process color in my logo come out burgundy, and the other colors are all off.
If I don't adjust any of the Printer settings, the colors appear fine, but the quality is poor.
How can I fix this issue?

Sorry for being but I was just brought in to solve the same problem as Nobody Special and now searching forums! Both Apple Cinema monitor and Epson 2200 were calibrated with a Greytag MacBeth Eye1Photo.
The problem is a color shift and a greater saturation of color. When the image was printed with the same system using InDesign and Photoshop CS2, it printed accurately. With CS3, the problem noted above developed.

  • Epson Stylus Photo 2200 RIP Software errors

    I'm at my wit's end! For no apparent reason, I cannot print to my Epson Stylus Photo 2200 with my Stylus RIP Pro 2.0 PS server software from either of my 2 computers--I get the same problems from both computers. I have a Dual 1 GHz PowerPC G4 running Mac OS 10.4.7 and a new 2x2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon running 10.4.8. I'm trying to print from Illustrator CS2. Several different things are happening when I print the job.
    a) It sends the print job to print far too quickly. Sometimes it times out and never even appears in the 127.0.0.1 window, and doesn't send it to the RIP. The job simply disappears. When it does send to the printer, it stops the job, putting it on hold and when I click start jobs, it promptly stops it again and this repeats itself going nowhere.
    I gave up, unplugged it, disconnected the USB, plugged it all back in, repaired permissions to both computers, restarted and then tried to print again and then:
    b) In the printer list the job shows up as first printing to the RIP (127.0.0.1) for a few seconds, then it quickly bounces to the next printer on my list, an HP laser jet???!!!
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled both the RIP software and the 2200 in printer setup utility and on both systems. All the files I'm trying to print will print directly to the 2200, just not through the RIP software, so I know it's communicating. The files will all print to my other printers as well, but I need to print them to the 2200 with the RIP for best quality.
    When I launch the RIP software, sometimes--but not every time--I immediately get a PS server error that says: EPSONLPRService EPSONLPRService error. This happens on both computers. I have received no help from Epson whatsoever. I run a business and I must print this job. Anyone have any thoughts? Thanks!!!

    Thnx for the reply. I think I have a better understanding of your setup. I was thinking that you had a physical RIP, rather than it being software. That would explain why you are using the loopback address to view the spool area of the RIP.
    However, could you confirm some more. Is the Epson physically connected to one Mac via USB or is it network with its own IP address?
    You also mention in your original post a HP printer jobs were switching to. Is this an Ethernet or USB printer?
    The reason I ask is that I was thinking that if they were both networked then there may be an addressing issue. As a test I would change the RIP software so that only the Epson printer is spooled to.
    I would also only print from TextEdit. The CS2 suite is not an ideal test app, unless it is only the suite you are having trouble printing from.
    I know that you have already performed a repair permissions, but I would do it after booting from the OS X disc. I'm guessing the RIP software acts as a service and starts on boot. If you boot from the disc, the service won't have started and therefore it will respond to any attempt by the system to repair it.
    The other thing I would try is downloading the full 10.4.8 Combo updater for Intel and PPC and run this on both Mac's respectively.
    Also, check that you have correct queue names for the LPD queue. This can cause jobs to behave as you mention. Better still, see if the software supports some other protocol such as Raw (Port 9100). If it does then you can connect using the HP Jet Direct-Socket to see if that works.

  • Epson Stylus Photo 2200 and Bonjour

    My Epson Stylus Photo 2200 printer can use either Firewire or USB. When connected directly to my G5 with Firewire I can add printer features which include setups for "Borderless" and "Minimal Margins" printing.
    However, from my MacBook Pro, after installing the latest Epson driver, I can print only in Standard mode through Bonjour. This is with the printer attached to my Airport Extreme USB port.
    I contacted Epson and this was their reply:
    "Thank you for contacting the Epson Connection.
    You will need to contact Apple and inform them that there Bonjour protocol
    doesn't support extra features like borderless and minimal margins. As
    stated before, Epson America supports the product only with a direct USB
    connection to a USB port on the computer and a direct Firewire cable to a
    firewire port on the computer. Epson America doesn't support or test any
    type of third-party printer servers, switchs, routers or Apple base
    stations. Apple has already stressed that there base stations do not
    support the Epson Status monitor. Unfortunately, if the Apple Bonjour
    protocol only supports the "Standard" printer driver, there is nothing
    Epson can do about it and you will need to talk to Apple and see if they
    have any work around. "
    How can I get this printer to use these features that I use regularly without connecting directly from computer to printer? Is there a work around?
    It seems silly to have to connect directly. After all that's why we got MacBooks - to access the internet and print - remotely!

    You can try uninstalling the drivers for your printer and re-installing the printer drivers....Also, then try to add the printer port and try to check the same.....hope that should sort this out....

  • Epson Stylus Photo 2200--Roll Paper function not found

    After I reset my printer function for another problem, I lost my ability to print on Roll Paper altogether. The other fuctions that go along with the Stylus Photo 2200 driver are not made available.  I cannot print my panoramas.  I have gone around and around and around with Epson who finally seemingly gave up.
    When Stylus Photo 2200 is listed as the printer only Epson (SP2200) comes up as a companion printer.  No matter what I do, and I have done everything from dumping everything Epson and starting completely over to every thing Epson suggested. 
    It seems the menu Printer Setup Utility has changed and when the printer is listed, it only offers only "Printer Model" that stays greyed out instead of "Page Setup" which was what gave me the functions I needed to add in the past .  Is there a way to revert back to the old Printer Setup Utility?  Using the Epson Printer Utility doesn't work because, although it shows the printer driver, it offers no way to add the Roll Paper function.  I hope this makes sense and that someone can figure this out!  Thanks

    What format are they? Tiif? Jpeg? You can compress them with a lot of apps - including Preivew and just about any graphics editor out there. I'm not sure that 45mb would crash iPhoto thogh, are yo sure that's the cause? I know that some folks have mentioned pixel dimensions causing issues, as can color profiles.

  • Extract photo stills in high resolution

    I need some stills of the work i've finished, but I only know the appleshift4 trick.
    Is there a way to export a photo still from FCP to somewhere else in high resolution? (I have recorded in 24P MiniDV)
    Thank you.

    export quicktime conversion, still image and choose the parameters. They will not be high resolution. they will be 720x480 (which you will need to resize in photoshop (or whatever) to 720 x 534 to adjust for rectangular pixels (video) vs. square pixels (computer and print) 72dpi.
    I suggest that you read the manual. This is pretty basic stuff.

  • Printing from iPhoto 08 on Printer Epson Stylus Photos Rx 500?

    Up to before I purchase a new 20" Mac OSX 1.5 Leopard from Tiger X 1.4.9 I had no problems printing on my Epson Stylus Photo RX500, but, even after having a new driver for Epson,the printing is a "****", I no longer have, as before the ability to chose the quality of print which I desire, I mean the best rendition for subject which I photographed, like Portraits, I no longer can control the printing speed as I used to before (for qualities) and am left with photos with lines, no matter what I do. I wasted 2 sets of ink cartridges, and lots of papers to try to circumvent the problem, to no avail. Sometimes using mat paper works well, glossy no.
    Cam I have some help ? Tanks.

    I had the same problem. The new driver I downloaded never worked properly. I ended up buying a new printer. I still use my Epson to scan with no problem. I actually need a part for my Epson RX 500 if you'd be willing to part with your scanner lid for a price. [email protected]

  • Why isn't my printer (epson stylus photo 820) working anymore??

    HI,
    I am having problems with my printer, an epson stylus photo 820. I have been using it for a long time, and suddenly for no reason, it refuses to print!
    When I am trying to print something, in the stylus photo 820 dialogue box, it says "printing" under "status" but nothing happens for about 6-7 minutes. Then, the printer makes a noise and in the dialogue box it says "jobs stopped."
    I have trying to reinstall the software that came with the printer, but it did not solve anything.
    Thank you for your help.

    As I no longer have the Epson drivers installed, I'm not exactly sure how you can check which driver you currently are using.
    If the procedure posted below doesn't work, the Epson may be dead. This worked for my Epson C86 whenever I encountered problems.
    Change any C86 reference I may have missed editing, to your 820 model.

  • Borderless printing, Epson stylus photo 820

    Ok, I'm trying to print this: http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=1716
    On an Epson Stylus Photo 820. I know this printer can do borderless prints, I just can't figure out how. Is this a driver issue or something? Is borderless printing on this printer a PC only feature? Am I missing something entirely?
    Thanks for any help!

    I don't have experience with the Stylus Photo 820, but I do have a Stylus Photo 890 and unfortunately borderless printing is not possible in OS X, even with the latest drivers. I went round and round with this with Epson Tech Support, who kept sending me suggestions that didn't work and finally they admitted that it was just not possible. I doubt that Epson will further update the drivers for these rather elderly printers.

  • OS 10.4.6 is causing color shift in prints

    Since I updated to 10.4.6 My prints have a severe red cast to them. All perameters used in printing are the same as previous and my Epson 2200 is working properly. I have color managment turned off in the driver and am using the correct prifiles fo the paper. I saw another post where others were having display problems but my images display fine but print badly.
    Anyone else have this problem or a suggestion.
    Thanks
    Craig

    Grrr!
    I'm having the same issues as people above and as on some similar threads.
    First, I've color managed for awhile. Beginning with calibrated monitors, Photoshop's "View" menu settings, my color space ...
    I know not to double color manage, and I choose to manage through Photoshop. I've reinstalled everything and read these boards and other threads on the web.
    Here are my problems.
    I am getting severe color shift and cannot get an accurate print. I've spoken with Epson ($$) and Adobe. All fingers point to Apple. Going through the printing process, everything is fine until soft proofing before hitting the final print button. That preview ALWAYS shows a shift in color if any color management has been applied. (I just tested an image without any color management and there still is a shift.)
    Today I trying to print blue hydrangeas for a town project; they are shifting toward magenta. Last week I worked on a town-wide Relay for Life (ACS fundraiser); night-time images with candles ... shifted green. (Again, my with calibrated monitors.)
    Ironically, when I was on 10.3.7 I didn't have any trouble. After that it's been roulette. I have an Apple Care contract and called Apple. Understanding that not every rep knows the ins and outs of color management, I asked him to forward an email to someone who can help me.
    Grrr. I was told that since Photoshop and Epson are not Apple products they can't help me. Surely, web searches show that this is known problem. (Some suggest trashing Apple's Generic RGB profile ...)
    Can ANYONE at Apple help? Please? Isn't that what an Apple Care contract should do?
    I have 20 (different) prints due to a family by tomorrow. I have an additional 150 prints due by Thursday. Am I expected to borrow someone's Windows PC and use it to send the image to my printer?
    (Also, I've installed several icc profiles in the past, but can't install any currently. I'm trying to install Museo and Arches profiles.
    What is happening? Newer profiles don't show up in the print driver's "Print Settings," "Media Type" pull down menu, no matter where I try to load the newer icc profiles.)

  • IPhoto 6 and Epson Stylus Photo 2200 Printer

    The photos that I print from iPhoto 6 to my Epson 2200 printer are all coming out way too green. What settings do I need to use in the print dialog -- and color management? -- to get decent results? I can print beautifully from Photoshop CS2 to the 2200. I just can't figure out what settings to use in iPhoto. Thanks in advance for your help with this question. _sidpink
    G5 Tower   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Kingstone's reply was helpful even though a little discouraging. But it made me realize that the problem probably lies with the choice of which software is doing the color management. The Epson 2200 printer driver provides some "advanced" settings in the print window, and I had been specifying "No color adjustment," because that's the setting recommended when printing from Photoshop. I had simply been trying the same setting when printing from iPhoto. But I went back and printed a photo from iPhoto using the "Color Controls" setting (without changing any of the variables), and the print came out perfectly! So I've answered the question to my satisfaction thanks to Kingstone's reply -- and I don't have to go out and invest in Photoshop Elements.
