The Printer Utility for my Epson CX 5000 is missing

I hope there is help for me here.  I have 2 software updates for my Epson CX5000 all-in-one printer listed in the Software update. The Printer Utility file/folder/software is missing.  I have done multiple searches with no success in finding it in my iMac with the newly upgraded OSX Mavericks. It is so difficult to get the software for this printer.  Unable to get it from the Epson site.  Can get only from Mac Software update.  Is there a way to remove the software updates which are the same and start anew?  Updates are dated June 19th.

I don't recall where I found this info but here is what I did. It is so simple that I wish I had found it several weeks ago. I removed all printers then rebooted.I don't remember if I turned printer off and/or unplugged it from USB on machine or not.  It was on and connected to machine before I  restarted.    Mac OS recognized printer and the utility and what I needed was all there. I really would like the most current Utility for my Printer but I have the basics now so that makes me happy.
Thank you greg for your help. As I think back I believe I got this info from the Epson site. Here is the link to what I did.

  • Printer Utility for Canon i9900 and OS 10.5.4

    I'm having trouble getting my System to recognize the printer utility for my Canon i9900. I can print with the standard mac printer utility but I don't get all the functionality. I've tried Printfab as well, no luck. Any ideas?

    How is the printer connected? Usually the utility will only work if the printer is connected via usb. I don't think there is a Gutenprint driver for this printer, but the utility will also only work when the printer has been added with the manufacturer's driver.
    Hope this helps.

  • Have new iMac OSx10.8.2, and when I connected my Epson Stylus pro3880, loaded printer drivers, and tried to print, the printer utility opens, then crashes. Any ideas? (it worked fine on my last iMac)

    Have a new imac OSx10.8.2, and when I connected my Epson Stylus pro 3880, loaded print drivers, and tried to print, the printer utility opened and then crashed; happened several times. Any ideas? (it worked fine on my older imac)

    I believe so. the driver version I have is 8.64
    The person gave me the instructions to reset the printing system and I followed it. That's what corrected the printing drop down windows.
    I am also having trouble finding the downloaded icc profiles for the papers I use. I see them in the Color Sync Utility, but not in the drop down window for Color Management. There is a thread on this forum relating to that, but I don't understand how to "copy" the profiles and put them elsewhere.

  • OS 10.3.9 - Can't run printer utility for Epson 1520

    My ink jets are clogged, but I can't run the printer utility. It's grayed out in the print monitor and I can't click on it. I had the same problem a few months ago and downloaded a driver someone recommended. It worked, but it was a trial version and started printing logos on everything after 30 days. So I uninstalled it. Ideally, I need a free printer driver. Or if not, another trial version will get me by for now.
    Thanks

    Have you tried downloading and installing the latest Epson driver? The Epson driver should include a printer utility.

  • How can I unclog the printhead of a Pro 9500 printer? It's too clogged for the printer utility.

    Hi,
    How can I unclog the printhead on a Pro 9500 printer? The printer utility cannot do it. It's too clogged for that and just uses up the ink without unclogging it. I tried the "Magic Inkjet Flush" but that didn't completely clear it. I wasted a lot of ink in the process. I'm thinking of just taking the printhead out and somehow soak it in an ammonia solution. Is there a way of doing this and will it work?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Hello artjewel.
    Unfortunately, we cannot recommend that any parts are physically cleaned.  We can only recommend that the Cleaning and Deep Cleaning options in the printer maintenance section are used.
    If the quality issues persist once these cleanings have been done, please contact our support group using the link below for additional assistance.

  • How do i fix my printer when it won't show the print preview for web pages? it worked and now not.

    how do i fix my printer when it won't show the print preview for web pages?  it worked for a while and now it doesn't.  printer is an hp officejet 7310 all-in-one.

    I would suspect this is a hardware issue.  The rollers are probably having issues picking up the relatively smooth thick media.  You might have better results be cleaning the paper pickup rollers with a damp paper towel.  Also make sure the paper is snugly loaded and the paper guides have been correctly positioned.

  • TS3147 Where are all the print settings for my HP Officejet 5510 in Mac OS X 10.8.2?  I can't find Normal, just Draft and Best.

    Change the print settings manually by clicking the lowest drop-down within the print dialog (e.g. the application name, Copies & Pages within MSOffice.
    Select Type/Quality and set the print quality as Normal.
    You may seve the settings as a Preset from the Presets drop-down menu.

  • Picking up the printer settings for Double or single sided?

    Hi All,
    Do anyone have a solution for picking up the printer settings for the PO SAPscript so that if the printer can do double sided it should print double sided but if it can only do single sided, it should print single sided?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sudheer.

    Hi Frank
    1. To change it manually you have to deselect the following option:
    Edit>Preferences>Type> Use Typographer's Quotes.
    2. To access the option through vb script use the following syntax:
    Document.TextPreference.TypographersQuotes
    May be this will help you.

  • How do I change the print orientation for PDFs with mixed orientation pages?

    I'm sure this is a fairly basic and easily solvable issue, but I've been searching for a solution and can't find one for the life of me.
    The issue: I'm printing a PDF that will be bound book-style, and the file contains pages with mixed orientations (both portrait and landscape). When I print the file, the landscape pages point the wrong way, to the left of the spine, when they should be pointing down to the right of the spine. I've adjusted the print settings for multiple test rounds, and nothing seems to work. Here's a visualization of the problem (apologies for the bad Paint art):
    What the book is doing now when it prints:
    What I need it to do:
    Here's the caveat: I cannot just rotate all the landscape pages counter-clockwise in Acrobat for ease of printing, because it would remove the ability to scroll through the file quickly in Reader or a Web browser, and the same file needs to be both easily readable digitally AND print correctly.
    Is this adjustment a print setting? Is this a tool I'm overlooking within Acrobat? Is this outside the scope of what is adjustable? All advice is welcome, and please feel free to ask any follow-up questions if I explained my problem unclearly.

    If you are trying booklet printing, try to rotate the pages as needed before you print to the booklet. If you are print booklets without using professional imposition software, then Quite Imposing or Quite Imposing Plus should be considered. I believe they offer a demo version.
