Problems printing from Epson Stylus Pro 700

I just upgraded to CS4. Now I can't print from Adobe Indesign on my Epson Stylus Pro 7800. It will print from photoshop. I upgraded the printer driver, but that didn't help. Other applications such as Word will print. When I click on the printer monitor, it says printer ready. The print job is "stopped." When I click on resume it says "Operation could not be completed." What can I do to fix this?

Yes, I've contacted epson. At first the computer wouldn't recognize that the 7800 printer was attached. My 1400 printer was working. I replaced the firewire cable on the 7800, per instructions from Epson, with a USB. That fixed the first problem. Then when I was printing in Adobe, I couldn't choose a paper type. We tried downloading a driver upgrade, and running disk utility(Epson tech still). That fixed that problem. Now I can choose a paper type in the print dialogue box, but when I tell the printer to print, the dialogue box says printing stopped. If I select resume, It tells me client error, not possible. I also spent about an hour on the phone with Adobe trying to solve this problem. Epson says it's an Adobe problem, and Adobe says it's an Epson problem! Currently, I can print in photoshop and indesign, but not pdf files on either printer. On Friday, at some point, I was able to print pdfs, but not photoshop or InDesign. Unfortunately I didn't write down exactly when that was, as I didn't realize at that time, that I wouldn't be able to print pdfs later on. I appreciate any help you can give me.

    Hello all!
    I need to print a JPG file to an Epson Stylus Pro 4880 printer and keep the original colors. The JPG file is of a company logo containging text/graphic. I use CS5 to convert the file to CMYK and save it as an Adobe PDF. When I print it everything looks good but there is a reddish outline around everything. Anyone have an idea how I can get rid of the outline? I am using the US Coated (SWOP) v2 for the CMYK scheme.

    Hi,
    I have an issue with printing to my Epson Stylus Pro 7900:
    I receive the error message : /Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter/Filter/pdftopdf.app/Contents/MacOS/pdftop df failed.

    Can s.o. help me out please?
    Many thanks in advance,

    It sounds like an error generated when you are using an Linux Printing/Open Printing driver.
    They may have support for that problem on their web site:

  • Problems Printing from Epson 2400 in Lightroom 2.3

    I'm in the process of switching over from a PC to a Mac. I've gotten lightroom running and transfered all my photos over. But I'm having two big problems printing from my Epson 2400.
    *8.5x11 prints are offset. The top of the picture starts about an inch lower than it should, and the bottom typically gets cut off.
    *Lightroom refuses to print 4x6 prints. It says it's printing, and the paper feeds in, but then the printer just spits out a blank page.
    I'm using the most current version of the Epson 2400 driver that I could find on the Epson web site.
    [Update] I used iPhoto 9 to print out some pictures, and they came out fine. So this seems to be a lightroom issue or a conflict between the lightroom/epson drivers.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Further update. It appears that I can print perfectly from another account on the same mac. But the account on which my catalog resides doesn't work at all. Could my catalog have been corrupted when I transfered my photos and catalog over to the new mac from the pc? Is there any way that I can fix it? (I have tried optimize and relaunch; no luck.)
    I could -- as a last restort -- kill the catalog and reimport all my thousands of photos, but wouldn't I loose the keywords and adjustments?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Problems printing from a Macbook Pro on a Kodak ESP7

    Hi,
    I am having problem printing from my Mac to the Kodak.  I have connected the mac to the printer through the settings as it can see it.  However, when I come to print it it says the printer is not responding and to check if it is turned on and properly connected.  I have tried reloading the printer etc but still cant get it to work.  I fired up my old windows laptop and that will print fine wirelessly so it can't be my BT Hub for the internet.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated as I dont want to go and have to buy another printer.
    Thanks for suggestions.

    Using the OS X built-in network printing protocols
    requires a CUPS driver. Check on Brother's site to
    see if they now have a CUPS driver for your model,
    or you can try the open source hl1250 driver from:
    http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hl1250/
    Unfortunately, I don't have an Intel Mac, so I don't
    know if any of these power PC drivers will work for
    you.
    Please let us know.
    I was told by a friend that the drivers are already built into the OS X 10.4.3, I hooked up the printer directly via USB and indeed it worked just fine. But, as I stated before, I just can't get the **** thing to work when the printer is connected to my PC and I try to print through the network.

  • QUESTION: problem printing to Epson Stylus Photo R800

    with latest version of LR2.  When trying to print, certain options (print setting, color management, print option) in the print set-up dialog box are crossed out as unavailable "for the current architecture"  Is there a bug in LR program?  Work around or fix?  No such problem when printing to this printer in prior update of LR2.

    My bad on the Pro part- the driver seems to be here:
    =8http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?oid=30501&prodoid=37472319&BV_Use BVCookie=yes&infoType=Downloads&platform=Macintosh&x=22&y=8
    "Removing printer from the list" refers to the Apple listing, the one you get when you hit print: you can choose a printer, choose to delete one, or choose to add one. This same dialog will allow you to add back the 'new' R800.

  • Problems printing from Epson RX500 in Snow Leopard

    I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro. I downloaded the software update for my Epson photo RX500. Every time I try to print, I get an error message which says "/System/Library/Printers/Libraries/PrintJobMgr/Contents/MacOS/PrintJobMgr failed" Does anyone know what this means, and more importantly, how to fix it? Thanks for any ideas.

    I too have an Epson Stylus Photo RX500. Also just bought the new iMac with Snow Leopard. I downloaded Apple’s driver and it was installed by the system. The printer and copying are working just fine, BUT I cannot get the software for the scan to open. It comes to the dock, bounces, then disappears. I went to the Epson web site, but didn’t see any help there. It does seem that Epson has given up supporting Apple’s new computers. That, or they are just behind times. :-D I am going to try to send them an e-mail and hope that I get an answer. Frustrating, isn’t it!!

  • Green Hue when Printing on Epson Stylus Pro 9600

    I have an iMac
    I've just upgraded to Photoshop CS5
    I've downloaded the newest drivers for my Epson Printer
    I've attempted to print using Adobe 1998, SRGB, and a special ICC profile made just for my printer/type of paper
    Each time I print my photos have a green cast over them. Everything looks perfect on the Mac, but when it prints, everything is green. Please help

    Okay so it looks like that took the green tinge off the pages and now they are just printing darker than they should, so I cleaned the nozzles, and am messing around with the settings again and hopefully this means I'm on the right track to getting perfectly colored prints again. Thank you very much. I'll call Epson from here with the fine tuning. I can't believe I missed such an easy fix. Well I thought I had it, but didn't double check that it stuck!

  • Unable to print to Epson Stylus Pro 11880

  • Printing to my Epson Stylus Pro 3800 (Grr...)

    Hi All,
    I'm a fairly recent convert from Windows and I LOVE my Mac for everything EXCEPT printing to my 3800.
    I have always had a problem with my Epson Stylus Pro 3800 printer on my Mac. The two just don't seem to get along. I've wasted countless pages of expensive paper and what seems like gallons of ink trying to resolve this issue, but I'm getting nowhere. I've ruled out physical problems with the printer - it works flawlessly on the three PC's I've connected to it (via usb).
    Until this evening I was using the Epson drivers for this printer. They were flakey at best. I would get random 'communication errors' that could happen at any time during a print - start, end, somewhere in between or, if I was lucky, not at all. Having had enough I went looking for a solution (again) online tonight and stumbled across Gutenprint 5.2.6.
    I've been able to install the drivers successfully by following the documentation but I can't get the printer to print via USB or IPP. Using usb, I get a message in the print queue 'backend USB Failed' and the printer goes into a Paused state. Using IPP the print job apprers to spool and queue reads 'Connecting to printer... ' for a while then returns with 'Unable to connect to printer; will retry in 30 seconds..'.
    I believe the IPP is failing because the print queue options in the Gutenprint setup. The install says to leave Queue blank for the default queue. I tried that - it didn't print.
    I browsed to the embedded 'EpsonNet Config' page in the printer and named what they call 'printer name' as printer. I presume that's the queue that the gutenprint driver wants, but I still get the same result.
    When I look at EpsonNet Config, the IPP URL is http://192.168.9.166:631/printer.
    When I look at the Printer Setup on the Mac, I see
    Queue Name: 192_168_0166
    Driver Version: 5.2.6
    URL: ipp://192.168.0.166/printer
    Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I'm frustrated beyond belief with this problem and really could use some help using either the Epson drivers or Gutenprint drivers - I just want some consistent output.
    Thanks in advance for any clues you may be able to offer.

    I have been using an Epson 3800 with my I Mac for four years and up untill I upgraded to OSX Lion the only problem I had was colour issues associated with some ICC profiles. After upgrading to Lion and downloading the latest OSX update (10th May) I could not print.
    One of the problms was that the print settings continuously defaulted to:
    Page Setup: Sheet Feeder
    Media Type: Ultra Premium Photo Paper Luster
    I would change the settings to what I wanted, I saved them selected Print. My printer promptly started changing from Matte ink (what I had set my print setting s for) to Photo Black.
    After trying all i could to correct this. I finally gave up and rang the Epson Helpline. After 3 telephone calls over a day and a half during which I was talked through the procedure you described, the problems were still not resolved.
    My contact on the Epson Helpline then tried to simulate the problem on his MAC. He discovered that he had the same problem the print settings would not save, albeit on a Epson 3880 driver. He then advised me that the problem was not with thw Epson Drivers it was a MAC/Apple problem.
    I then rang the Apple Helpline (at £1.35 a minute) described the problem and was eventually put through to a supervisor. Who asked me to send her a set of screen shots describing the problem, This I have done, I have received an acknowledgement of receipt and have been advised that I should get a response within two working days.
    I am waiting hopefully.
    I have tried to print both via CS5 and Aperture the problem is the same in both instances.

  • Problem printing from cs6 photoshop to epson stylus pro 4800 printer

    Has anyone had trouble printing from cs6 on a mac running lion to a epson stylus pro 4800 printer?   I keep getting an error message saying  "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents.""   The computer sees the printer just fine and has the latest driver installed. I have removed it and reinstalled it many times . I need help with this.

    Yes, the menu items are not unavailable. We were already aware of the "Reveal Arrow" issue under OSX v10.5.3. The most important print menu items such as "Print Settings" and "Color Management" are simply not present. As previously stated we've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the latest (v3.66) "Universal" print driver on both hosts and all of our client Macs. A resolution to this problem is very urgent as our semester begins this week and currently students can not print their next week assignments.

  • Epson stylus Pro 9600 problem printing?

    We have 3 Epson stylus pro 9600 connect to LAN network and the latest driver 8.6.1. We have Mac Pro with Lion installed 10.7.4. We tried to print the progress comes up and then it says error.  This is what we did to solve the problem:  1. we unplug the LAN Cable and plug directly to the Mac Pro
                                                                                                                   2. we unplug the the cable from the printer settings still had green light
                                                                                                                   3. we used IP addresses too
                                                                                                                   4. we turn off the printer and restarted the Mac
                                                                                                                   5. it only works with USB. This defeats the purpose of using the LAN.
    It seems the printer or Lion does not recognize each other. It won't print!
    Any solutions.
    Thank you in advance

    Adobe blamed Epson drivers for not anticipating CS3's changes. Like they're clairvoyant or something. Their reason was that it was too hard to take into account every printer on the market when writing the new (unasked for) CS3 printing module. A feeble excuse when it comes to Epson pro machinery, though - it is the industry standard, after all.
    Solution? - use CS2 for printing, authored back when Adobe wrote its software to be compatible with existing equipment and drivers, not expecting the world to fall into line with whatever it decided it would do. CS2 works flawlessly with my 7800, CS3 remains a basket case for the same reasons you mention, though checking/unchecking the fine detail box makes no difference. CS3 is erratic - sometimes it works as directed, but then out of nowhere it will suddenly decide to attenuate a pano print.
    We'll see if they get it right with CS4's "improved" printing, but don't hold your breath.

  • Epson Stylus Pro 4000 - Printing issues

    I am having trouble printing from Photoshop to my Epson stylus pro 4000.  Specifically, I am not able to access choices other than plain paper, tracing paper and line paper for printing my images.  The following are some screen shots of what I see.  Does anyone out there know why this is happening and if there is some setting/compatibility issue.  I would really appreciate any insights and tips for a solution.  I noticed the problem when I started using CS5. I have also downloaded the most updated driver for the Epson and that didn't seem to do anything. Thanks!

    I asume that you have updated the Epson printer driver via the Apple Updater? I had the same problem with my R1900. I suggest that you look at G Ballard's website. You will need to remove the Epson folder from your Library/Printer folder and from Print/Fax in System Preferences and re-install using the driver from the Epson Support webpage.

    Having followed the above: my system is now working as it should.
