Problem Install EPSON Receipt printer

Can anyone help me with this?
We are trying to install a EPSON TM-88ii Printer on a WYSE S90 with Windows XPE. We can install the drivers and use the printer, but after we enable the write filter to save our settings and reboot the printer is gone. We have tried everything we could think of ... Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Instead of disabling EWF and then rebooting, try the following (new changes in bold):
Reboot your system.
DO NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES AT THIS POINT
Disable EWF using the command line: ewfmgr c: -commitanddisable -live
DO NOT reboot your system
Install your printer drivers etc.
Enable EWF using the command line: ewfmgr c: -enable
(This does not actually enable EWF it just sets the system so it will be enabled when you next reboot)
Reboot your system
(EWF will now be enabled)
Your printer should work.

Unable to install Epson ICC printer profiles in Lion (access privileges message)

I upgraded to Lion and cannot install Epson ICC printer profiles. When I try to install, the installation is halted with the message that I do not have enough access privileges for this installation. Yes, I am the admin (I checked, as I know this is a known issue). I have the current updates to the O/S and the Epson driver. Specifically, these are printer paper profiles for an Espon Stylus Photo R2800 printer.

The ownership of the /Library/ColorSync directory and its contents changed in Lion. You acutally do not have enough priviliges as admin to write to that directory anymore. EPSON's installer does not have the ability to ask you for your password to escalate the admin privileges to root. You should report this to EPSON and insist that they update their installer.
There is a way to get the files installed, but it is pretty involved. I will give you the general idea but USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. There is a risk you could break your system and make it unusable.
With those admonitions in mind, here's the general outline.
1. Go to /Library/ColorSync. Highlight the folder and do a Get Info on it.
2. Under the Sharing & Permissions portion, give "everyone" the ability to Read & Write. Then choose to have this applied to all enclosed items.
3. Run the EPSON installer(s). The profiles will now install.
4. Change the ownership and permissions for all the installed items useing the Terminal--
For the EPSON folder the command is 'sudo chown -R root:wheel path_to_EPSON_folder'
For each and every item in the EPSON folder, the command is 'sudo chmod 644 path_to_item'
5. Open Disk Utility and Repair Permssions.

Problem adding EPSON USB printer

I contacted Epson's support about this, then did what they told me to in the reply. As you can probably tell since I'm posting this, it didn't work. Here is the email I sent:
"No matter what I do I cannot get EPSON USB to show up under More Printers in Apple's Printer Utility. I can add the regular driver for the printer to my printers list just fine, but when I try to go into More Printers > EPSON USB to add the Border less and Minimized margins (like I had done previously on a PPC based Mac) the option for EPSON USB from the pull down menu doesn't show up. It only shows EPSON FIREWIRE and EPSON TCP/IP. I have tired reinstalling the driver, resetting the printer system and restarting. I have even reinstalled the whole operating system, but even on a fresh install (and the newest driver installed) EPSON USB still didn't show up in the pull down menu. Please help, I need to get border less printing working again.
I am using a Core2Duo MacBook Pro, Epson Stylus Photo 820, The newest version of the driver (downloaded January 1, 2007), and Mac OS X 10.4.8."
Here is what they returned and what I did:
"Thank you for contacting the Epson Connection.
If you are unable to add your printer even after a complete cleanout and
reinstall, please try the following steps to correct this issue.
1. Open Printer Setup Utility (HD > APPLICATIONS > UTILITIES).
2. At the top of the screen, click the words "Printer Setup Utility" and
choose "Reset Printing System" from the pull-down menu. Confirm resetting.
3. All existing printer listings will be deleted. Try adding your Epson
printer again.
This reset makes the operating system clear all jobs and queues and
reconnect to printer drivers currently in the system.
If the printer's plug-in still cannot be selected to ADD, try the following
as well:
1. Begin on the desktop with no windows open or applications running.
2. Go to FILE and down to FIND.
3. In the SEARCH IN option, select EVERYWHERE.
4. Under SEARCH FOR ITEMS WHOSE select NAME and CONTAINS from the drop
down menu.
5. In the search field type COM.APPLE.PRINT and click FIND.
6. Drag ALL the entries that it finds to the TRASH and empty it. Repeat
steps 2-5 to search again and confirm that all COM.APPLE.PRINT files were
removed. (The second search should have no results. If it does, drag the
results to the trash, empty the trash, and repeat the search a final time.)
7. Restart the computer and go back to the Printer Setup Utility to add
the printer. (Note: The COM.APPLE.PRINT preference files will be re-created
upon restart.)
8. After selecting ADD, you will receive a message stating "NEW PRINTER
DRIVERS DETECTED, WOULD YOU LIKE TO RELOAD THE BROWSER?" Click YES.
We would recommend reinstalling the driver and trying to add the printer.
If this fails - Please contact Apple for issues with the Printer Setup
Utility

--Thanks so much.

I'm having problems, too--- my Mac IBoook G4 10.4.8 does not "see"my new Epson flatbed color 58000 dream machine. Now iBook does see the Epson USB cord but not what's at the end of it....
Okay so maybe what has yet to help me, may help you:
I repaired permissions and wow-- there were permissions to repair
I downloaded the shareware, Printer Setup Repair which told me:
"18 missing files/directories found during the verification process. They may be responsible for certain printing problems. Printer Setup Repair cannot replace these items. Please refer to the log file for a list of the missing files/directories. You may need to reinstall OS X to resolve your printing issues. "
I know you did the reinstall (I so don't want to do that, hoping there is some way to just reinstall the printer utility) but perhaps the premissions repair
and maybe even the disk verification may help?
Printer Setup Repair told me things I didn't know-- perhaps it would assist you, too?
Good luck to us. A friend suggested that I may neeed another USB cable---
while my EPSON utility sees the printer, my Mac utility doe not and it may be
about some peculiarities of the USB cable.
Best of luck,

Problems with Epson R2400 printer and Mac

I'm a photographer and I switched to an imac a while ago. When I tried out my Epson R2400 printer, it worked really awful, comparing to when I used it with PC. I still haven't managed to fix these prolems. The printer menu is diminished (less options, many inaccessible in grey), there are problems with print density, with color adjustment, what I see on my screen is not what I get on my print (a black and white photo in grayscale mode can appear almost light blue when printed), there are even alignment problems (centred photos appear closer to the left edge of the paper). And I don't have a clue why all this is happening. The printer driver I installed is apparently the latest one. So I don't know where to go from here. I have installed and I use the profiles of the specific papers I'm using, but the results are NASTY. Please help.

By the way, I have read the links under "More like this", but those threads don't seem to clarify my question. Originally I had installed my Epson driver from the original (old) Epson CD. When that didn't work I uninstalled and installed the newer Epson driver from the Epson's site. Doesn't work and the problems I'm having are the ones I mentioned above.

Printing Problem with Epson R320 (Print CD)

Problem: I cannot print using Print CD with a new Epson Stylus Photo R320, however I can print from applications using the gimp beta driver provided in OS software, via <Print Using> dialogue box.
Power Mac G4 dual 450, running 10.4.6.
After phoning Epson, I downloaded the needed driver from Epson and went through the installation process with an Epson tech. However I cannot seem to access this driver in the print utility. The Printer Setup Utility is forcing me to choose a “gimp” driver. Some discussions on this site suggest choosing just Epson usb—the question is how with the way the dialogue boxes are configured in Printer Setup Utility. The problem seems to be I am unable to access the driver through the <Print Using> menu in the utility. If I select more printers, (after highlighting the R320) this causes the print utility to crash.
I have repaired permissions, reset the printer setup, uninstalled, reinstalled; actually I have done everything I could find to do. The problem seems so simple. I easily created my CD label; now I would just like to print it!! Any ideas from all the pros on this list. Thank you.

I have an Epson R320 and have communication problems.You start the job and after about 5 seconds you get a ! in the dock on the printer icon and on opening you see "job stopped".
I am no expert but it seems to me that the program e.g.MYOB accounting fails to pass the data to OSX.
If I de install and reinstall the epson drivers and repair permission it will work ...but then the next day on re-booting we are back to the same state of not working.
I have informed Epson and am waiting for a reply. The epson printer tests and standalone mode works. OSX problem?

Installing epson r2880 printer driver

Hi,
I am trying to add an Epson r2880 to my iMac running MAC OS 10.8 Mountain Lion and I keep getting messages as below now over a 12+ hour period. Is the server really down for this long or should I do something different to get this printer driver loaded? Multiple attempts through the software update have failed.
Thanks,
Jorge

If you are current with your Software Updates, then you should have the Oct 4. Epson Printer Drivers v2.12 for OS X installed. This provides support for the R2880 directly from Print & Scan system preferences.
If your R2880 is already present in your Print & Scan configuration, you may need to first remove it, then add it back, choosing the Epson R2880 driver (version 9).

Printing Problems with Epson R200 Printer

When I try to print from Aperture my prints come out "flat" and the colors are off. When I export the the same file to PS Elements 4.0 my prints come out great. I would prefer to not have to do this. Here is some background information on what I have tried to do so far to correct this problem:
1. I have searched this forum backwards and forwards to try and find an answer - no luck!
2. Purchased a Spyder2 monitor calibrator
3. Wasted a lot of paper trying various settings.
4. Yes - I have read the two articles on the Aperture site regarding printing and calibration. I have followed both of these articles and still get poor prints when printing from Aperture.
5. I have met with the genius at my local Apple Store to work through the problem. He informed me that he only prints from Photoshop and did not really know how to solve my problem.
6. Purchased the Aperture 1.5 book from Apple to see if I could find out anything else that I had not already tried.
Help please, what am I missing? It seems to me that all of the books written on Aperture stress printing books and not photo prints as their main area on printing. Can I get the same results printing from Aperture as I can printing from Photoshop Elements?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'll attempt to answer my own question. After much trial and error along with a lot of wasted paper and ink I have found the source of the problem. Aperture works exactly like it should if you follow Apple's recomendations for printing. My problem was that the profiles supplied for my printer by Epson are horrible! I purchased a Spyder 2 Suite screen calibrator to try and fix this problem and did not have any luck until I ran the included Print FX software and created a new profile for my printer (Epson R200). The prints are now coming out great and virutally indistinguishable from those printed via Photoshop Elements. The clue to fixing this is that when I turned on "on-screen" proofing and selected my old printer profile the output did match the screen. Unfortuntely the screen images were not using the full gamut of color (hence the flat pictures) because it was gettting it's information from the Epson ICC Profile. In summary, if you are suffering from this problem find a way to create your own profile for your printer. There are expensive methods which involve purchasing a spectrophotometer. I took the middle of the road route and created a profile using a software only profiler (Print FX). I'm sure that depending on your printer you could download a better profile on the web. Either way you get it done you'll be happier. NOTE: I guess some printers come with better profiles than others which would explain why some people don't have any problems.

Receipt Printer Que

Have Epson receipt printer install with Generic Text/Only driver. O\S is Windows Server 2008 r2. This printer is part of a Terminal Services network configuration. The printer work most days however it seem that when network traffic increase
the printer queue will jam and stop printing job causing a backup and then all job for that printer stop. Also, unable to delete the job from queue.

Hi,
Do you have only single printer installed in your network?
If more than one, then does it occur on all printer? What’s the exact printer model number?
Have you tried to re install printer driver again?
As you have commented that when network traffic increase then you are facing issue, for that you can check the print preference if you have applied. Also check printer properties are set properly.
Here providing workaround to cancel printing queue, you can first try to stop print spooler service and then delete all the spooled files and then start back again the spooler service. It might help for your issue. You can refer
KB 946737 guide and step for details for reference.
Hope it helps!

Unable to share Epson R220 printer

Recently installed Epson R220 printer on OSX Panther. After installation discovered it would not install on my G3 with OS9. Additional research uncovered information that it may be possible to network G5 with G3 via Ethernet and thereby print from G3 to R220 installed on G5. I have followed G5 instructions in "Help" (disable printer share in OSX, opening OS9 Classic and enable printer share, etc.). "Chooser" still does not show R220 in Classic and therefore believe it is not be being "seen" by G3. Hope you have enough information. Look forward to your reply
G5x2 Mac OS X (10.3.9) G3 OS 9.2 ethernet connection

Regular (ie, simple) printer sharing doesn't work from OS X to OS 9 because they use different protocols.
If you have the same driver installed on both the G3 and G5 (Classic), you can share from OS X Classic to the G3 by installing and turning on the USB Printer Sharing Control panel (can be downloaded from Apple).
Connecting direct by ethernet requires setup, too. In Network Prefs (OS X) and TCP/IP Control panel (OS 9), set configure manually and enter these local IP addresses: 192.168.3.3 and 192.168.3.4. I don't know if appletalk is required for this protocol, but turn it on on both computers.
Another possibility is to use the Apple Desktop Printer Utility on the G3 to set up a desktop LPD printer. For that you need to share the printer in OS X Sharing Prefs, and write down/remember the OS X print queue name, found in printer Setup by clicking on show Info. Use "Apple Color LaserWriter" (any model) as the PPD/model in the OS 9/G3 setup. This means you will send postscript from the G3 to the G5's Epson print queue. The G5 will prepare the output (called RIPping) and send it to the printer.
Hope this helps.

PSE 9 printing problem with Epson printer

hello there,
I am using PSE 9 with Windows XP and Epson 3880 printer. I have re-installed all programs/drivers a couple of times. PSE9 Printer dialogue will not let me print choosing "Let Photoshop Manage Colour". It will only let me print with "Let Printer Manage Colour". I am using Epson papers.
When I select "Let Photoshop Manage Colour", a box appears saying "ICC profile no longer available" and it won't let me print. Is this a PSE 9 problem or an Epson problem?
thanks !!!

Well, I actually found the answer. I spoke to an Epson Rep!
I used to have the Epson 2200 printer, then the Epson 3800, and now I use the 3880 printer on Windows XP and Windows 7 on my laptop.
When you uninstall the other 2 printers, the color profiles are still in your program files and can become corrupted.
This is why, in PSE 9, when I checked the box Let Photoshop Elements Manage Colour, it woildn`t print and instead there was the pop-up box ``ICC profile no longer available`` because it was trying to access the old paper profiles and not the ones that came with the 3880. I use Epson papers, by the way.
The solution was to go into C-Drive, Program Files, System 32, spool,drivers, colour, and this opens to the ICC profiles used by the printer. Then I deleted the old paper profiles associated with my former printers.
And it worked !!

Problem in sap script check printing with EPSON FX890 printer

Hi
I am trying to print a check through F-58 using a script.
We have a new EPSON FX890 dot matrix printer, But when I fire a check the the formatting of the check is not proper. The alignment is never the same as given in the SAP script. this could a problem with the printer set up and configuration in SAP. Could anybody please give me some inputs on what needs to be done. its Urgent. Can anybody give me what needs to be done and also guide me with Print control commands in SAP scripts
Thanks,

Hi,
Here is some steps you should follow for scripts printout.
1. Validate the drivers used in SAP (Tcode SPAD)
2. Are you printing through a print server or directly to the printer
3. If it is througha print server like windows, you should validate to have the right driver installed for that printer.
4. Validate on the printer the default setting. If the script doesn't sent the proper font or setup, it will print using the last setup sent to the printer.
So if somebody used work and print a specific document with different setting, some time the setting stays for the SAP report.
To validate the setup of the printer, just turn off and on the printer before sending the SAP form. That should help to see if the setup has been changed by another program.
I hope those simple steps will help to solve your problem.
Reward if helpfull...
Cheers,
Rakesh.
