Unable to choose PRINT WIDE AREA on EPSON printer 740i after upgrading

After upgrading to 10.4.5 i was unable to choose the print area in the page set up window. I use an EPSON 740, i had problems trying to print at the begining but solved them (luckily!). The print area is an option i use alot! because the print margin is bigger than the normal. I'm a graphic designer and i don't want to change my printer, it worked PERFECTLY with 10.3.... What can i do?

OK! So the Mac has the drivers. One small step.
Bear in mind please that I do not have that printer. On the Brother that I struggled with, the trick was to reset it and get it to print out the default settings. (Instructions I found on the Brother site.) Included in the printout was the printer's IP - 192.168.2.24.
I then configured the Macs to find the printer. In 10.8.2: System Preferences / Print and Scan / + / IP
But the first step was to get the printer to cough up the settings. Perhaps your manual has this info?

  • Can't print to CD using Epson Print CD with iMac and Mavricks

    I just got a new iMac to replace my older MacBook.
    Both systems have the latest version of Mavericks 10.9.5. and the latest Epson printer driver for my Artisan 730. On the iMac when I try to print to a CD using Epson Print CD I am unable to select the media type like I can on the MacBook. On the iMac the selection is grayed out and I cannot select anything from it. See screen shot below.
    On the MacBook for Media Type I can select CD but on the iMac as you can see is grayed out. I can't figure out why.  I have looked at the Epson support pages and I found no help there. So I am trying here to see if someone can help me out.
    Why can't I select a media type?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I might as well tell you now, but it has been found that CDs last longer that are not printed or labeled on. And drives are able to better handle disks with no labels. Use jewelcases with inserts to keep track of what's on a CD or DVD. It is not a direct answer to your question, but I have a CD printing printer, the Epson R220, and I won't use the CD labeler. Here's an interesting report on this:
    http://www.macintouch.com/cdrfailure.html
    If you must do it, and you don't care about the longevity of your disks, make sure that the tray's rear entrance is not blocked. People who have put Epson Photo R220's against walls have had the same error you are getting.

  • Color control in printing: Aperture mayhem with Epson printer

    With monitors calibrated and colorsync profiles loaded for my Epson 1280 printer, Photoshop prints are as close to screen as possible.
    Aperture starts off with something strange: each profile for my Epson appears 3X in the menu. When selecting the profile that matches my printer and paper, the result is more than a color cast. It's more like a colorized image. I can get closer by selecting profiles that don't match my paper type, but always with a cast.
    Is there a trick to getting Aperture to be reliable and as good as Photoshop?

    (These aren't Epson's instructions, but might be helpful regardless)
    For some Epson printers, the drivers shipped with Tiger are more current that the ones on the Epson web site. You wouldn't want to delete the drivers, but - for example - if you move from Firewire to USB, or Airport, the system can get confused.
    I've found that deleting the Epson printers in Print Center (and resetting the printing subsystem if necessary or deleting and installing drivers) isn't enough, but that you also have to eradicate everything inside
    /Library/Printers/EPSON/Preferences/
    where it remembers printer models, ports and settings.
    In addition, ColorSync remembers your profiles for deleted printers in the (hidden) file
    /Library/Preferences/.Globalpreferences.plist
    DON'T delete this file, just edit it and get rid of the deleted devices (ColorSyncDevices/Device-prtrxxxx)

  • Can't Print or Scan from your OfficeJet Pro after Upgrading from your Win 8 to 8.1?

    Are you having problems when attempting to print or scan from Windows 8.1 after printing/scanning successfully prior to upgrading to 8.1?  Uninstall/Re-install.  With this, I might suggest going to your product page on HP.com (sample link posted below) and then hover over "TROUBLESHOOTING" in the top menu and choose "HOW TO" from the drop-down menu.  Click on "Install / Uninstall" link to take you to a document that will walk through the uninstall process.  When that is complete, then click the "DRIVERS" menu on the same product page.  Select the correct Microsoft Windows 8.1 version (either 32 or 64 bit) and then download and install the latest driver.  Good Luck!

  • VNICs (both uplinks and VM's vNIC) are blocked on N5K DVS after upgrading to ESXi 5.1

    Hello Gents,
    I cought into weird situation after upgrade VMware ESXi 5.0 to 5.1 on UCS C200M2. Before upgrade I have had server with configured static adapter-fex VNICS and floating/dynamic vm-fex interfaces working perfectly in DirectPathIO mode for VMs. Initial deployment was done according Cisco N5K VM-fex operation guide for   NX-OS 5.1(3)N1(1). There were vCenter 5.1, 2xN5K and 2xC200M with ESXi 5.0 integrated so that N5K DVS was brought to vCenter and hosts could be added to DVS. One of C200M2 (still on ESXi5.0) has no problem while operating VM-Fexs and adapter-fexs while part of its uplinks are on VSS and othe part on DVS (in fact there are none VMs on VSS, so all the workloads use DVS).
    But upgraded C200M cannot operate with DVS correctly: any vmks, vm networks, VMs connected to DVS lose network connectivity.
    Attached picture illustrates diag of connectivity status (uplinks/ets are blocked).
    VEM are fresh and running:

    Do anybody have an idea why it is going wrong?

    Of course they exist.There is unpatched server with ESXi 5.0 near upgraded server and it works perfectly.
    Finally I downgraded server to ESXi5.0 again and VM-FEX functionality restored.

  • Font names are invisible in Ai CS5 after upgrading to OSX 10.10 Yosemite

    Hello,
    I am having a minor drawback on Adobe Illustrator CS5 after upgrading my iMac to OS X 10.10 Yosemite. The thing is when trying to select a font form a Type>Font selection mostly all font names are invisible. This only happens in Illustrator, Photoshop and Indesign works fine. I have attached a screenshot of what I am  seeing: after hovering with my mouse pointer over the particular font the name appears, but otherwise not.
    I will also address this issue to Apple support as well.
    Waiting for your reply.

    donelaitis,
    I believe post #15 in this thread may give the solution.

  • FAX setup/Printer setup may need to be redone after upgrade

    I just discovered that my FAX settings were disabled after upgrading (noticed when I hadn't received any junk faxes for 3 days). In the Preferences panel I discovered that my FAX settings were no longer there. When I went to re-enter them I found that Leopard "knew" what they should be, but hadn't re-enabled the FAX driver.
    Similarly, I had to re-select drivers for my printers.
    I hope this sames someone some time.

    One possible cause for this error message is that files in Firefox's program folder have become locked. In that case, Firefox may suggest that you restart Windows since that usually will clear file locks. If the locks keep returning, it could be that they are enforced by your security software.
    One workaround is a "clean reinstall", meaning you rename the Firefox program folder and run the full installer again, ''without uninstalling''. This should leave your settings undisturbed. However, if you are a cautious person, you might make a backup of your settings folder, or at least your bookmarks.
    (1) Back up settings or bookmarks (optional)
    On Windows 7 (or Vista or 8/8.1), you can paste this into the Start menu search box, or into the address bar of a Windows Explorer window:
    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    That should open a folder that contains one or more folders that have a semi-randomized name. If there are multiple folders, back up the most recently updated one. If you are in a hurry or have limited space on your backup media, drill down into the folder and back up the subfolder named bookmarkbackups.
    (2) Download the full installer for Firefox from
    https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/
    Scroll down to find your preferred language and operating system.
    (3) Rename the Firefox program folder
    On Windows 7 (64-bit), that would be this folder:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    Rename it to something like
    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    (4) Now run the installer. It should automatically detect your settings folder and have you back up and running.
    After this "clean reinstall" process, you may discover that you are missing a plugin or two. Some installers drop their plugins into the Firefox program folder instead of keeping them in their own folders. To hunt these down, check:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox\Plugins<br>
    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox\browser\plugins
    Any luck?

  • Voices are not sync with video after upgrade to imovie11

    After the upgrade to Imovie11, the voices are not sync with the movie.
    I digitaled a lot of Sony Handicam Video 8 (HI8) tapes, also many other tapes.
    All the movies, incl. the new ones, has the problem with de voices.

    I gather you are using DV files. Here's what you should expect after upgrading to version 9.0.2 of iMovie '11: if you have event-clips that are longer than an hour and half you will have a noticeable lack of synchronization near the end of the clip. The only way I know of reducing the gap between audio and video while still using iMovie '11 is to open the file in QuickTime 7 (not X) and trim the file so that only the footage your tying to fix is left. Save that shortened file and import it into iMovie. It should seem synchronized now. But there is probably a remaining problem: the picture quality is has been lowered by being in iMovie. To check this, open you DV files in MPEG Streamclip. If there is no improvement in quality, you're lucky. When I play my DV files (from Video8--the original analog 8mm video) in MPEG Streamclip the color and tones are much richer. In iMovie '11 (and, I think, iMovie '09), the picture is washed out, lacking color saturation and general subtlety. This makes all makes iMovie '11 (at least) essentially useless for DV files--if my experience is generalizable. What I don't know at this point is whether these two kinds of problems (lack of synchronization and picture degradation) are avoidable by using iMovie '06 or Final Cut Express.
