Why will PE 11 not print with brand new Epson R3000?

Brand new Epson R3000 printer and works fine except with PE 11. Epson spent an hour trying new drivers and setting to no avail.
Is it the PE version? (worked fine with Epson R2880 one week ago)

It should work. You might try uninstalling and reinstalling PSE. Sometimes that helps it to pick up a new printer. Use control panel or the uninstaller in the PSE folder in applications. This shouldn't affect your catalogs and photos, since those files are separate from the program files.

I've installed Mountain Lion. When I try to print on my Epson R3000, I get a notification of a problem for rasteroescpll. How can I correct this?

I installed Mountain Lion. When I try to print on my Epson R3000 I get a notification that rastertoescpll quit unexpectedly. How can I fix this?

Sorry but that's the very driver that I think caused my problem and I'm assuming Elstel's. Yes it's an Epson Stylus Photo R3000. From the posts I've read the new driver is faulty. Driver V9 seems to work temporarily with my Mountain Lion 10.8.4. It worked perfectly when I set up my new printer and installed the provided software. When I started the day to day suddenly it wouldn't print and I had the rastertoescpll error. My assumption is that my "automatic updates" setting updated the software over night and then it woudn't work. I then tried your link from a previous post and installed that upgrade. No change. I've only been able to print this afternoon by re-installing the printer with the provided disk. If pixies come during the night and I wake up tomorrow morning with that error message again, after screaming, I will then use my TM to go back to where it worked! Very confused. I was really hoping that Yuengdog1983's solution for the others would have helped me but as I said I've always had my computer named.

Printing in Photoshop CC in Mavericks with Epson R3000

When I upgraded to Mavericks and tried printing in Photoshop CC to my Epson R3000 the print dialog would show and choose an arbitrary paper size no matter what settings I used. Apple Care sent me an updated driver that solved the problem until I upgraded Mavericks to 13.9.2 and the exact same problem returned. I downloaded another print driver update from Apple with no change. Because my printer works fine in Lightroom 5 Apple Care has declared that it is an Adobe problem and they can't help.
Not to sound antiprogress but if I could I would happily go back to Snow Leopard and Photoshop CS6. Photoshop CC keeps crashing and since loading Mavericks my computer's internal processes, like opening a folder, have greatly slowed down. My very current iMac 27 has been working flawlessly in O.S. 10.6, my three Epson printers, and Photoshop CS6.
Those were the days!
Thank you,

I've seen some similar issues with other Printers as well. There seems to be problems with Printer drivers communicating with Photoshop CC on Mavericks. Could be that all three are contributing to a problem here.
Try changing the default settings for the driver outside of Photoshop. What I've seen is that those settings will be carried over to Photoshop and work, but making changes to the printer driver (Print Settings button) are sometimes forgotten/lost, and the settings revert to the defaults.

Photoshop CS5 crashes when attempting to "Manage Custom Sizes" in Epson r3000 printer dialogue window

I'm trying to print a gallery wrap image on an Epson R3000 printer using 13" wide Epson roll canvas. Every time I select "Manage Custom Sizes" in the printer's dialogue window, Photoshop CS5 crashes. I've been using Photoshop software for more than 15 years with a variety of Epson printers including Stylus Pro 7600 and this problem has never occurred previously. I can't seem to find a solution. Anyone have a suggestion? Thanks in advance!

That means that there is a bug in your Epson printer driver.
Please contact Epson for updates to their printer driver software.

Hi When going from Develop module to print module a white boarder appears on screen which also prints via my epson r3000 printer. I can get round this by exporting photo to Elements and printing from there but can i get rid of the boarder and print from lightroom?

In the printer driver (accessed through the Page Setup button) set the Advanced tab to borderless. Then in the right hand panel under Layout set all the margins to zero.

I can't find the yosemite driver for my epson r3000 printer.

I can't find the yosemite driver for my new epson r3000 printer. I am using 10.10.1. The Epson website says to find the driver by going to the App store and looking for updates. I did that and didn't find any. In "Printers and Scanners" in System Preferences I notice that the computer is aware that I am connected to the printer (via USB) but a message at the bottom of the window says that "Software for this printer isn't available from Apple. Contact the printer's manufacturer...". What to do?

It looks as though Epson has a driver compatible with Yosemite.

Epson R3000 media mismatch error

Hi, I've loaded two types of fine art paper in the front media tray of my Epson R3000 and selected the paper type in the print settings that match the size of the paper (eg. A4 Fr.-Fine Art(Borderless- Retain Size)). I've then chosen the relevant Epson media type recommended by the paper manufacturer (eg. Velvet Fine Art Paper). The correct back ink is selected and I'm using the paper's proper ICC profile. The paper is loaded correctly in the printer. However, whenever I try to print the printer retuns the same error: "The media loaded does not match the seettings selected. Check the print settings or reload media." I've tried printing using the same configurations in both Photoshop CS5.1 and Aperture 3.3.2 (under OS 10.8.1). The papers I'm trying to print on are Canson BFK Rives 310gsm and Ilford Galerie Smooth Fine Art Paper. The same error occurs for both papers.
I've had a good hunt online for solutions, but can't find any answers to what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

I've worked it out! You need to OPEN the rear door of the printer so it knows it's loadng fine art paper. With the rear door closed it automatically thinks it's loading poster board - hence the mismatching media error. I didn't realise the rear door was connected to the printer's brain to that extent.
Hopefully this will help someone else who faces the same predicament one day. Thanks to anyone who mulled over my problem anyway.

Using Photoshop CS6 and after printing approx. 10 cards on an Epson R3000 printer the program gives me a dialog box saying "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents." Even after closing and reopening the program, the print command is greyed out so I cannot select any printer. This also happens with a Brother laser printer. Both printers will produce a test page out side of the Adobe product. Help!

I cannot get any help either. I get the message "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents." I have reinstalled all drivers, powered off/on all printers (2 of them - a Brother HL - 4040cn and an Epson Stylus Pro 7890 - which all worked fine until this morning). There appears to be no path to a solution. I have read all the forums and tried about 20 different suggestions all to no avail. Reboots, changing cables, reinstalling printers and drivers and Photoshop CS6 - ALL TO NO AVAIL. On a macbook pro retina with 10.10.3. This issue is out there and some get solutions - but not all - that's my crowd...the not all crowd. I have yet to be able to print from CS6 any more. This is a show stopper and my patience is wearing thin. And I'm tired of stupid questions like "is your printer powered on?" give me a break. This appears to be an adobe photoshop cs6 problem - as I can print from every other application. Anyone have any ideas? Adobe should have something?... Adobe system info below:

Printing 11.7 X 16.5 with Epson R3000

I am trying to print out photos on 11.7 X 16.5 photo paper on an Epson R3000. The aperture software does not have this option and when I put it in custom it does not print correctly. I have tried changing from portrait to landscape, using 11 X 17 and many other things to no avail....
Thank you in advance for any help...

Thanks so MUCH!!! I earned my GOOFUS dunce cap for that one....

HT1338 my Epson R3000 will not load printer paper

Hi, my Epson R3000 will not load printing paper and say's there is communication error, has any one had this problem? , thanks

Yes, 90% of the time I try to print something I get that error, and have been gettign that error for years, since the days of OS X Leopard. I have been pausing/resuming each printer to get it to start transferring files again, or, sometimes it won't work and I have to go through the wifi setup again, or unplug cat5 cable and plug it back in, or power cycle the printer if on USB.
I contacted Epson, and as you most likely know, they have no qualified personnel. They got me throuhg the obvious steps like removing the drivers, re-installing them (I actually did a find / -name "*epson*" and removed everything I found), rebooting the router (poor thing has nothing to do with it, it's working fine otherwise), swapping cat5 cables, usb cables.
I have 3 of these R3000 printers and they all exhibit the same issues. All of my other printers connected to the same computer/router/wifi do not exhibit this issue. I have Artisan 50 (usb), the 1400 (usb), and 3 Artisan 835s (wifi).
The things I hate most about Epson and its printers are the following:
- they come with 0 support form Epson. If you know what find . -name is, you're already more qualified than any CS rep that's going to answer
- their drivers get updates very slowly for the OS X platform at least
- only some older printers will how you # printed pages/ # pages remaining. The R3000 for example shows "spooling job, 3% complete". Very informative.
- the printer driver for the R3000 creates some kind of proxy files that are HUGE in size, and it's done every time, for each page. It effectively takes 10 minutes to start printing 60 copies of 300DPI letter size photoshop designed files. The printer definitely doesn't have 5GB of RAM or temporary space to hold all that, so why not START FREAKING PRINTING while that stuff goes on in the background for subsequent pages? And if it's the same exact graphic, why doesn't the computer just simply send the first generated proxy file 60 times in a row rather than create 60 different proxy files?
- all Epson printers I've ever played with will stop printing mid page when it thinks it's out of ink. This determination is done in the chip of the cartridge in combination with the printer firmware, not by actual reading of the ink levels. I would much prefer that the printer would continue to print that page and stop after. Less wasted paper, and the cartridges I throw out ALWAYS have enough ink in them to finish printing one silly page.
- print quality doesn't change until you spend $500 or more on a printer (print heads are virtually the same type/size on all of Artisan printers for example), ignoring, of course, dye ink vs pigment ink
- did I mention no qualified customer service personnel and complete disinterest in taking any customer feedback into consideration?
In conclusion, I am very sorry to let you know that I have yet to find a solution to this, and Epson has been ignoring it for years. If you do bump into something worthwhile though, please post it here.
Thank you!

Print size problems with Epson R3000 and Mountain Lion

I am using Mountain Lion on a 2008 MBP and an Epson R3000 printer. I can not get prints to size to my paper. In aperture I am choosing custom since there is no option for 11.7X16.5. I have set the print size to the same and still it does not work. I tried both landscape and portrait but that did not work.

LR5 4x6 printing problem on Epson R3000

I am having a problem printing on 4x6 paper from LR5.3. I am running OS X Mavericks, and I'm using an Epson R3000. When I print using the standard 4x6, sheet feeder setting, Landscape or Portrait as appropriate, no rotate, the image prints on the lower right corner of the paper. It appears that LR is still printing as if there is 8.5x11 paper and centering the image, even though I've selected 4x6. This also happens if I use a custom size of 6x4. I have tried all combinations of portrait/landscape, rotate/non-rotate, to no avail. The LR preview on the screen is correct, but the output is not. I have tried it with both portrait and landscape images, but it does not solve the problem.
I have opened the image in Photoshop, selected 4x6 paper, and it works fine. The print also works properly in LR5 on letter paper - correct size, orientation, and margins. Does anyone have any ideas, workarounds, or solutions? Thanks.

Hi Tom -
It did work properly with Photoshop, but I'd rather not have to use Photoshop for all of my printing. As far as Lightroom goes, I was using the standard template - maximize size and specifying 4x6 paper. This worked on a mac air, same OSX, same version of LR5, same version of print driver. So, I created a user template on the air, exported it, imported it into my iMac. Still no good. The only workaround I have found is to use a maximize size template, specifiy letter size paper, then align the photo against the left and bottom edges. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Lightroom. This did not solve the problem, either.
Also, when I specifiy 4x6 paper, the rulers show the correct dimensions. Everything looks correct, but it seems unable to communicate to the printer that LR is using anything other than letter-size paper. It's getting very frustrating and wasteful of time, paper, and ink, as I sure you can guess.
Thanks again for your suggestions - I appreciate the feedback.
- John

Elements 12 print color dark, dull. Epson R3000 Mac OS

Wise Adobe Community folks I need your advice. Mac. running Yosemite, Version 10.10.1, Elements 12. Prints from Epson R3000 dark, dull. Formerly this printer/Elements combination worked fine before Yosemite upgrade. Monitor calibrated and (formerly) was accurate representation of print. Printer heads, ink checked OK. Paper Epson Premium Glossy.
Color handling: Photoshop Elements
Image space: untagged RGB
Printer profile: SRGB IEC61966-2.1
Color settings: 'No color management.' Also tried 'Always optimize for printing.'
Also tried purchase and download of Elements 13 but problem persisted and conflicts with Organizer appeared so I removed Eleemnts 13 and now back to 12.
Tried many combinations but I'm lost.
Your wisdom much appreciated!

Here are a couple of links. No idea when some of them were last updated so your mileage may vary:

Epson R3000 question. My issue is when I print on roll paper which is 13" wide, specifically custom sizes. Anyone else having an issue?

I can't seem to adjust my image size exactly what I want to print on my 13" roll paper. As an example, I have a panoramic photo that I wanted printed at 13" x 23" but the best I could custom size the print was 9" x 23". I didn't get any resolution yellow triangle errors, it just wouldn't let me get to those dimensions I wanted. I'm pretty new to all this so maybe I am doing something wrong. I have tried custom sizes, ICC profiles which I think more just for printing and color control. Any help would be appreciated.
By the way, the Epson R3000 is an awesome wide format printer if anyone was considering it.

I have tried cropping my photos in Aperture to the exact size I would like to print. I adjsuted paper size through custom dimensions, image size is either set to custom or roll paper. In the end it always seems to do whatever it wants. So I am wondering, am I asking Aperture and my printer driver to do something it can't do, therefore it restricts me? I bought this printer so I could print wide format images but they are too narrow. I don't want a 9" x23" image. I want a 13" by 27" image.
My other question is, I am shooting with a Nikon D90 12.6MP DSLR in RAW mode. Yet, when I try to get something to print like 13x24, I get the yellow triangle resolution error in Aperture. Apparently, the resolution isn't high enough, but it seems weird because my camera is taking inceredibly high resolution photos.
