Problems printing - Epson Photo 2200

I'm having problems printing to my Epson photo 2200. I'm running Mac OS X version 10.4.11. I notice that in the print window there are no longer options for color management, as in to turn it off. The problem I am having is when printing the images come out dark or the colors are just way off. I've tried all I can think of. I'm not a computer guy. I mainly print from Adobe Photoshop 7.0. I've tried different things but it comes down to the fact I don't have the same print screen that they show me and I can't turn off the color management, which may be the problem.
Has anyone else have tis problem?
I need help!!

Welcome to the forums VW!
Many have similar problems, but when you go to Print, look for the Copies & Pages drop down, select Color Sync and see if it's there. Some drivers will have it under Printer Options, or such things.

Printing problem with Epson photo 2200

I have a Powerbook G4 running the most recent version of OSX. I can no longer print to my Epson Photo 2200. When I try and print the Printer window pops up, and the job automatically stops without printing.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the 2200 driver, I have hooked up a Canon printer to the powerbook (and this printer works fine with the powerbook), I have printed a test sheet on the 2200 (which is done without a connection to the Powerbook and it printed fine). The problem lies in the computer printer connection (I am using USB for the link).
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I had a similar problem with a Epson Stylus Photo R800. The printer would not print Word docs or DVD media using the most updated software from Epson. After going through two printers I paid a consultant to come in on a Saturday night who told me that communication errors between Epson printers and current versions of the MacOS are encountered every day in his business. And neither Apple or Epson address the issue directly.
To get the Stylus Photo R800 to work we had to reconfigure the driver to deal with Manual Feeding of documents and DVDs. It took about an hour of experimentation but once done...with no help from Apple or Epson...the printer did work very well. However, the Epson Print CD software is a total bust. We found a third party solution called DiscLabel that allowed us to print DVDs with the reconfigured driver. I'm disgusted with both Apple and Epson because Epson sells printer with the promise that it will work with the MacOS when three hours of struggle with useless software proved otherwise.
If others have a better experience or know of simple solutions to the Epson Print CD problem please post them.
Thanks in advance for tolerating my rant.

I customize my paper size and print size and am then viewing a photo on my screen. I print it out and it chops off about 5% of all edges of my original photo on the screen. Why does it do that? It is driving me crazy. I use an Epson Photo 2200 printer.

What print and paper sizes are you using? Are you trying to print a borderless print? Does your printer support borderless for that particular size? Are you printing to the custom stock size or to a larger stock size?

I am suddenly having a problem printing 4x6 photos. The print as though starting in the middle of an 8x10 sheet. I've checked and double-checked the print settings. Anyone else have this problem?

Using a epson photo 2200 printer wirelessly

I have an Epson stylus Photo 2200 printer hooked up to my airport. When I go to print photo quality pictures and go to setting to pick the paper the Epson tools 4 unexpectedly quits. Thus leaving me with no choices in paper..... when I hard wired the printer with a USB it worked as it should.... is this a common problem with a work around or is this the way life is with this printer? Thank you for any help.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Problems printing photoshop photos

Recently I have developed issues printing photos from my machine. The problems started when I installed my new Canon Pixma printer. Photos would appear perfect on my monitors (which are regularly calibrated with a ColorMunki) but when I would go to print them from lightroom they would appear very very dark. I tried then printing from windows and had the same problem. What is exceptionally strange is that, when I go to print from windows, the print preview actually shows the problem:
The image (when printed for the first time) will apear properly in the print preview for maybe a second, and then suddenly go dark.
The particularly odd thing is that his only seems to occur with photos produced with photoshop or lightroom. As a test I printed two pictures I had recieved from an online newsletter. One printed fine. The other did not. It turns out (by looking at the photo properties) one had been produced using photoshop, and the other had not. I have attempted to turn off printer color management on the canon, but it had no effect. I also now have the same problem when printing from the epson printer on my system.
I am running Windows 7 64. I have an Epson Artisan and Canon Pixma printer installed on my machine. Previous to the problem I had the Epson and an HP photosmart. I have been in contact with Canon customer support, and they seem unwilling to entertain the possibility that this is anything other than an Adobe issue. Any thoughts? I'm just about all out of ideas.
Thanks in advance.

I primarily print from one of three programs. Lightroom and Window's photo viewer, and on occation PrintMaster (when printing a digital scrapbook). The problem mostly occurs in Lightroom and Windows, though strangely printing from Printmaster even comes out slightly darker. The screen grab from above is using the windows photo viewer.
I have attempted upon printing to go into the print dialogue and disable any color correction:
This has provided no change whatsoever as well.
Again, the problem only occurs with photos produced by adobe software. As an experiment I took a picture I took from the Renaissance Faire that I processed through Lightroom. I then stuck that in PrintMaster and exported it. I changed nothing.
Here they are side by side:
Here are the print results:
The problem even occurs with photos not produced on my machine. Canon sent a test photo for me to print. A look in the properties showed it to be processed by Photoshop CS5. Same results. Overly dark.
When printing from lightroom, I print with "managed by printer" selected. In this case I have left the canon print settings at auto, manual with "driver driven" and these did not help. Changing to manual with ICM set with an input profile of "Adobe RGB (1998)" This print printed close, but was a little light. I also tried disabling the driver settings again, took lightroom off the printer managed setting, and set lightroom to "Canon IJ Color Printer Profile 2005" This produced the best print yet.
However, the problem I'm having is that when printing from Windows Photo Viewer I STILL get that same darkening, not matter what I do to the print settings. And the problem persists with the Epson printer as well. So, I feel like I'm making progress, but there is still something messed up. Idylically, I would like to be able to let the printer drivers do their thing, as I have in the past, but something seems to be getting in their way.

PSE 9 Problem Printing Multiple Photos

I am unable to properly print multiple photos in V9. For example if I select a single photo and select my paper size as 81/2x11 and try to print 5 copies of the photo in 3 1/2 x 5 size - the preview screen only shows a single photo and it shows it will only use one page. If I print it, the photo is printed one time on 5 pages. I have included a screen shot. The same thing happens if I print multiple copies of multiple photos. I know there is an option under more options to only print one photo per page but it is not selected. Even if it was selected the preview should show that 4 pages would print. I have duplicated this on more then one computer. This is a serious bug and makes printing from PSE useless. This started after I installed a recent upgrade.

I would like to add my experience with printing. As per the previous comments I have also used Elements since the first version and have undergone many upgrades, so believe I am qualified to make these observations. I have always used Elements to manage printing for our art and photographic business and have never had any issue and very little waste, very important when the paper and inks cost so much.
It would seem that the printing from Editor works much as I would expect.
Printing from Organiser does not work as it should. I have always used this for printing greeting cards and other multiple print options and would expect to set for individual prints to a specific size with a number of copies per page.
Observations of print problems:
Only one image per image selected appears in the preview window.
The preview window does not update to indicate multiple pages will be printed where more than one page worth is chosen.
Only one image is printed per page.
Images requested print one to a page, so in my case three pages for one image 'Use each photo' set to three.
In the 'More Options' is a tick box to select one image per page, this is not selected.
At this stage popped up a message stating Organiser is unable to print and will skip this page. The printer then prints 3 blank pages this being the number selected.
I am pleased to say that returning to PSE7 to check my facts I find it does exactly what I would expect, the preview page fills up with the number of images selected to print.
I would like to know if Adobe will be pursuing this issue as I have no use for PSE9 if it can't print as per previous versions.

Problems printing one photo multiple times on a single page

Im trying to print multiple photos on a page so as to not waste paper. I have a 4 X 6 photo and want to print 2, 3X3 photos on the page. If you follow the HELP directions which are
Choose FILE > Print, Select paper Size, in my case 4X6. click on customize, Click Settings button then choose "Multiple of the same photo per page"
The "Multiple photo per page" option is grayed out. After troubleshooting it appears the software is telling me that two 3X3 photos cant fit in a 4X6 inch wide space and wont let me try. I was able to get around the problem by printing two 2.9 inch photos.
The software should be friendlier - Allow me to print 2 photos that are a exact fit to the paper. If the photo needs to be adjusted the software should do the adjustments in the background.
If Im having a problem here Im sure others are too.

Welcome to the Apple user to user assistance forums
Note that this is NOT a reporting path to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback to do that
No one but us users here - and I do not see a question in your post - just a rant and how you found a work around
Note that in general you DO NOT want software to change your specs - if you need a 3"x3" print you do not want the software to change it to 2.9" x 2.9" in the background - if it can not do what you requested then not doing it and having you adjust the request is the most appropriate path IMHO

Problem with Epson Photo 3170 Scanner

Hi,
I bought a new Apple and installed Mac OS X 10.6.8 and my epson photo 3170 scanner is not working.
I read here that my scanner is supported -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#epson
I did Software update and downloaded the latest version, but still doesnt work.
I also installed Roseta, but i cant find the option in Photoshop (using control+i) it only gives me option for 32bit mode.
any ideas?
thanks ;-)

This is the latest update, not supporting 10.6.x, so i turned to apple, but didn't work either.

Printing Problems CS4 & Epson Photo R-2400

When I download profiles form Epson and install them they don't show up in the print dialogue page. I have installed to the photoshop applications folder. Should they go somewhere else? Is there a step by step tutorial on how to add profiles to photoshop?
Thanks,
Duane

Don,
>but the print is streaked and the colors are wrong.
Streaking is often a sign that some of the ink jets are plugged and require a cleaning cycle. What do you mean by "the colors are wrong"? Is it red-prints-as-green wrong? Or red-prints-as-reddish-brown wrong? Have you recently hardware-color calibrated your monitor?
Tell us exactly how you are printing, including color profiles, paper profiles, etc. -- and
screenshots of your print setup dialog boxes (linked to posted images on your server to pixentral.com can help a lot here).

Problems printing portrait photos in landscape mode

I have Photoshop Elements 5.0. I'm making a photo calendar, so I need to print out all of my photos in a landscape layout. A couple of them are portraits, though, and Photoshop is rotating those 90 degrees no matter what I try so that they'll fit on the full page. I don't recall having this problem last year, so I suspect that I'm missing something obvious. Can someone help me out?

I would suggest opening a new document in landscape then copying and pasting the portrait onto it. This method will also allow you to position it and add color/text/clipart/other photos to the remaining white space.

Printing to a windows shared printer (Epson Photo 1400) on a AD Network

Looking for help with printing to a windows shared printer but I believe I need instructions for a domain rather than a workgroups??? Trying to print to a windows shared Epson Stylus Photo 1400 from a Mac running OS 10.4.11. Sharing works fine to other PC's an a network using active directory. (there is no workgroup, and I guess there can't be in the way the network is administered) The "address" used on another pc to print to the shared printer is \\111408nw.

TC problem printing large photos

I have a canon mp530 hooked up to the usb port on my 1gig TC. It prints documents fine, but whenever I send a picture file to be printed, it begins to print but stops just a few seconds into it. After a while, the printer just ejects the unfinished document. I tried hooking up my computer via ethernet to see if it was a speed issue as the picture is rather large, but the same problem occurs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a similar problem with my Canon MP830.
Direct USB works fine, but printing thru AEBS, large document just stops.

Problems printing cropped photos

Having cropped ~4x6 from a large photo, E11 will only print ~ 1/2 onto a 4x6. What to do?
(thread title edited by forum host)

Which OS and from which app (Organizer or Editor) you are trying to Print ?
If that is Organizer, please see that you have settings as: 'Paper size-Letter', 'Type of print-Individual print', Select print size-4x6 and 'crop to fit' option is unchecked. Please let me know if that doesn't work for you.

Why can't I print a document when I can wirelessly print a photo from my i-Pad?

I have a new Canon printer that supports air print. No problem printing a photo from i-Pad2 (it even selected photo paper!) but when I chose to print a document the i-Pad recognised the correct printer, said it was connecting and sending to print but nothing happened (not even in print queue).

Try this:
1. Close all apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo.
