Will my Epson R800 print PSE 8 photos?

I have a new Dell Studio XLS with a new Dell 21.5" monitor. Dell installed my epson R800 and downloaded the correct drivers for Windows7, 64 bit. After editing my photos in PSE, I have tried everything to print an acceptable photo from PSE 8 to the Epson R800. I have always used Photoshop and my last edition was CS3 but it will not run on this computer. I have set everything in PSE and set R800 to use PSE profiles but nothing works. Is PSE 8 compatible with Epson R800 or do I not need a new printer?
Thanks,

Colin, thank you very much for your reply. I am getting closer but still have a way to go. I plan to purchase a Spyder Express 3 tomorrow locally. It is the least expensive and I hope it will work.
As an experiment today, I placed DVD image of a photo corrected in PS CS3 about 2 years ago. The image looked just great on my new monitor. It had adobe ps 1998 profile. I set the Epson R800 to use the same profile, set the paper as Epson Premium Luster (all I had) and also set to ICM. Results were a little better but still too dark. I did not alter the monitor appearance of this file since it was saved to DVD in 2006. So it should have printed as it did originally with the same R800 printer and no change to the original file.
I hope the Spyder works. I hope Spyder Express 3 that is the least expensive at $89 is of good enough quality to preform properly.
This is the reason I detest changing computers and printers once I finally get both setup. I will try on my Epson 3800 when I receive a new ink cartridge in a few days. Both my Dell Laptop and dimensions 8200 desktop got virusus and the repair personel told me to get a new computer. So here I am with a new Dell Studio XLS 8300, and an Epson R800 and no prints worth saving.

Epson r800 prints, but does not appear in Printer List: can't use Utilities

My Epson r800 prints, but does not appear in Printer List. It is connected via USB to the iMac. A Brother LH-2070N is connected via AirPort Extreme. I need to use Utilities to clean the head of cartridge, check levels, etc.. Is there a way to fix this problem?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)

For your Epson try this:
Hard Drive, Library, Printers (folder), Epson folder,
Inkjetprinter folder, Utilities folder and here you
will find Epson Printer Utility2. Click on it and it
should work.
Note. Epson utilities will not work unless the
Printer is directly connected to the computer.
Had the same issue with my 2200 photo and the above
worked.
Tried again after reinstalling the drivers. There is no separate Inkjet Folder, but the Printer Utility is within the Epson folder. Unfortunately, the r800 still does not appear in the Printer List, hence no utility.

Why will my HP6510 not print to photo tray when I print directly from my computer?

Why will my HP6510 not print to photo tray when I print directly from my computer?
I am able to print to the photo tray when I print from a memory card, inserted directly into the printer. However, when I try to print a picture saved directly to my laptop through my wireless connection, the picture prints from the main tray. If I take the paper out of the main tray, I get the out of paper message. When I first bought the printer, I had no problems with this issue. The printer is about 2-3 years old. I have gone into the HP software on my laptop and set the preferences for photo tray, along with the size I wanted and the photo paper I was using. By the way, it is HP photo paper. I have also done the same on the print screen on my laptop. In addition, I have gone into preferences on the printer itself and chosen "Prompt for photo tray." I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the HP software on my laptop. I successfully printed the "practice picture" during the reinstalling process. None of this has solved the problem.
I have no problem printing a document from my laptop wirelessly to the printer.

Hi mountainnana,
Thank you for your response, sorry the guide was not what you were looking for.
Here are some other suggestions:
Open the HP Solution Center (icon is normally on the desktop.) Click on Set Preferences, Click on the Paper/Quality tab, for the Source choose Tray 2, choose the right paper size and media type. Click Apply, and then OK. Then try printing your photo again.
If that does not work there could be a driver/software conflict happening. If that is the case please try our HP Print and Scan Doctor.
Otherwise, proceed with a uninstall and reinstall of your printer software using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
Hope this solves your issue, and have a good day!

Since switch from pc to mac epson R800 producing lousy photos.

Recently switched from pc to mac pro. Using Epson R800 printer. Cinema Display is calibrated using spyder pro. Mac driver downloaded from Epson seems to work okay altho setup is quite different from PC. Really not very good, actually. Prints are really very poor, not acceptable by any standard.
Have rechecked with Epson and apparently I have the newest driver for mac os x.
Anyone got any ideas???

Yep, know all that. The problem that seems to exist is the inability in the mac to control all of the usual features that were previously controllable when this printer was setup on the pc.
I downloaded the mac driver for this printer from Epson but peculiarly in CS3 it does not allow for all functions. Why? Wish I knew.
So, downloaded it again, just in case a file or whatever went missing on the first download. Same thing happens. Not all printer controls are usable.
Oh and nope I do not have the gutenprint or whatever it's called listed so that's not the problem.

Lightroom Prints Off Center (Epson R800 Printer)

I have been using PSCS2 and Qimage to make my prints in the past. (Windows XP computer)
Just installed Lightroom and like the program. Only one problem - when I try to make a print (not boardless) the print is not centered on the page. I have already checked the margins and the print certainly looks centered in the preview.
I am using an Epson R800. (I never noticed this before, but then again I have generally printed boardless in the past. Decided to try boarded prints because LR makes it so easy to add a black boarder around the image.)
Thanks,
Steve

A4 on a lot of Epsons has a margin on one side. On my the 1290 the minimum is 14.4mm so I set all the sides to 15mm and use zoom to fill to give an even border. I'll also saved my main paper types in presets by saving as Standard.

I cannot get my Epson R800 printer to work with Lion

I have updated to Lion and now I cannot print on my Epson stylus photo R800. Trying to add a printer goes out to find software only to tell me to go to Epson. Going to Epson only tells me that if there is no software then I already have it.
Any ideas
Alastair

Did you follow the links of what to do, Lion FAQ on Epson?
Selected FAQ
Q:
I don't see my product listed on the Epson Mac OS X Lion Support page. Can I use my product with Mac OS X Lion?
A:
If your product isn't listed in any of the drop-down lists on the Mac OS X Lion Support page, it is not currently compatible with Lion.
It's 5-10 years or thereabouts? I've had laser printers newer than that be rendered legacy obsolete and lack of drivers. Of course all my new scanners, printers are 10x faster and better, too. And my last Canon half the cost was in the ink! but great buy for $80. Refills though are $45+.

Printing PSE Photo Books

I have recently completed a 2-Volume Family History Photo Book. I uploaded it to Shutterfly as I have done successfully in the past and this time the formatting of the pages is all wrong and the books are not printable. Would someone have any advice on how to correct this problem? I am on a tight timeline to get these books printed for a reunion coming soon.
PS: This problem occurred using Elements 10 so I upgraded to Elements 11 and got the same result

Give this basic remedy a try. Quit iPhoto and delete your iPhoto preferences. To do this, go to your username> library> preferences> com.apple.iphoto.plist. Delete this file. Then reopen iPhoto; it will create a new preference file with all of the default settings.
If that doesn't work, do a verify and repair of permissions using Disk Utility.
I hope this helps.

Help! Where Did My Printing Options Go With My Epson R800?

For some reason, I've lost the Format Settings from my Epson R800 printer (USB) when I open Page Setup. Typically you should get options for "Manual", "Roll Paper-Borderless Banner" and several others in Page Setup. This all started when I did a "Reset Printing System" in Printer Setup Utility. This deleted all the options from my Library>Printers folder. I have copied the folder contents back from a backup with no success. I've also trashed the contents of the Epson folder in the root Library>Printers>Epson folder and the EpsonPrinterDriver.pkg in the Receipts folder, and reinstalled the Epson Printer Software from my Tiger Installation Disk. Repaired permissions, ran a repair on both Disk Utility and DiskWarrior. The right contents appear to be in the appropriate folders, but when I used Printer Setup the only driver that comes up is the generic "Epson SP R800." Clicking More Printers just says that it is unable to turn Apple Talk on - I'm not using it. This has to be a software problem, because I everything works as it should when I start up using an older backup disk. This is driving me nuts! My primary use for the printer is with roll paper, and now I can't access that feature. Does anyone have a fix or suggestion for this problem? Thanks.

Greg, I'm an idiot! Turns out the Print Browser had somehow reset itself to Apple Talk. Clicking More Printers was then giving me the can't turn on Apple Talk message. When I clicked on Print Browser popup there was the Epson USB just as you said it should be. Selecting this put me in business. So simple, and I feel so stupid. Sorry for the bother. Anyway, thanks for the help - much appreciated.

R800 Printing CD's with Airport

I have a Epson R800 printer. It works great with the Airport on regular printing (photo's, etc.), however I cannot get it to print a CD/DVD without connecting the USB directly to my Powerbook. I called Epson, they don't support wireless and would only tell me how to print if the printer was connected directly to my computer. Does anyone know if you can print a CD/DVD using the Airport? If I can - how?

I insert the cd loader into the printer (keeping the printer six inches from the wall - as told to me by Epson). I design the cd label, hit print and get a message that says - tray inserted incorrectly. When I called Epson they had me load a manual feed driver and I could print it when connected directly to the printer - however it wouldn't print when connected to my Airport.

R800 printing error on roll paper

Hi there,
I have an Epson R800 printer.
It worked perfectly fine with my Windows PC.
Then I bought a Mac, hoping everything would work just as fine.
Not so.
When I try to print on roll paper, although both Preview and Lightroom show the paper of the correct size (custom size selected from page setup, with the right dimensions), when I go in to the print options pane and look at the "summary" tab, it shows A4 as paper format.
And indeed the printer prints just the central part of the picture on the roll as if it were an A4 sheet
This has become very frustrating, not to mention the expense in paper and cartridges...
Any help, anyone?
Cheers
Antonio Soffici

Well, the roll is 10m long, so in theory (and, sadly enough, in Windows XP) I could print a whole roll at once.
Indeed, I have printed (sadly, with a 5-year-old laptop PC running Windows XP SP2) a 2-meter panorama with neither fuss nor hassle.
Now, if neither Apple nor Epson are able to write a decent driver for a photographic printer (on the market for several years, now) under Leopard, well, I found it very, very, very unpleasant.
And I feel deprived of the undeniable right of using my existing peripherals, which, according to Apple's own ads, keep on being compatible with every issue of the new OS.
I hope 10.5.2 brings some improvements on this issue
Love and peace

I use an iMac running V. 10.10.2. I have an Epson WP-4530 printer. Is there a printer driver that will enable one to print photos from color negatives?

I use an iMac running V. 10.10.2. I have an Epson WP-4530 printer. Is there a printer driver that will enable one to print photos from color negatives?
I have already tried downloading the drivers from Epson as per one person's suggestions, but the dialog box isn't anything like what was suggested--the choices in the box weren't the same for the most part. I don't want to lock up the computer or disable the printer for normal printing, but I have a lot of old negatives that I would love to have prints from.

I am using the latest software from Epson for Mac OS 10.10.2 that I downloaded last week. I seem to remember that the older software (we're talking 6-8 years ago) had to option to scan slides or negatives and would convert the results into positives via the scanner. I don't like the most recent scanning software because it jumps right into the scan before giving you a chance to change the options. It uses the selected options from the previous scan which are sometimes right, sometimes wrong. Thanks for your reply to my question!

Epson r800 dvd print problems

I've got an Epson Photo R800 printer connected to my imac G5 running on Mac OS 10.3.5. I did loads of research before choosing this printer, and made sure I had the system requirements Epson ask for by checking the Epson and Apple sites. Epson claim this printer will work with OS 10.1.3 and above.
I've run Tech Tools on my computer just to check that it's a happy bunny, and it passed all tests with no problems.
The printer prints photos beautifully, I couldn't be happier with it, but it won't print on CD/DVDs, which is one of the main reasons I bought it.
When I try to print on DVD using the Epson Print CD software bundled with the printer, I get the error message ' Epson printer driver dealing with CD printing is not installed'.
I uninstalled the printer drivers and re-installed them from the original discs, but still got the same problem. I downloaded the print cd software from the Epson site and installed it, but still got the same problem.
I contacted Epson 5 times about this: first, they advised me to take the steps I already had.
Then they showed me the manual print 'work around' which involved ignoring the error message, and this looked hopeful with the printer beginning to make whirring noises, but then another error message comes up saying that the output tray is in the wrong position, which, trust me, it isn't.
Then Epson promised to send me discs which they claimed would solve the problem. When they didn't send anything, I rang again and they sent a disc, but it was for Windows and for a completely different printer.
Then I got mad, because all this had taken 2 months, and I'd lost work because of it. So I rang again (it took an hour and a half to get to speak to someone), and asked to speak to the manager, who sent me the correct disc, of a updated version of Print CD. I installed it, it didn't solve the problem.
Now Epson are saying that I have to upgrade my OS, which, as everything is working fine apart from this, I am loathe to do. I've got Final Cut Pro, DVD Studio Pro and After Effects on there and everything is ticking along fine - I work with Macs and have had bumper problems trying to get these versions of this software to work with a newer OS there, so I'm not keen to muck about with things at home when I'm happy with everything as it is. Also, when the printer's advertised as working with 10.1.3 and above, why should I?!
Has anyone else had problems with an R800 and mac os 10.3.5? Any ideas? This is such a drag, and I fear that if I have to speak to Epson one more time, I may trash the telephone in frustration.

I have tried everything I can think of! Updated to 10.6.3v 1.1, reset printing, searched the forums, prayed, and have just about given up. As posted previously, my other imac that i did not update to 10.6.3 prints fine.
I appreciate all the tips I have received but does anyone else have suggestions? What should I do next? Is this unresolvable? Purchase a new printer??

Contact sheet prints @ 1/4 or 25% the actual size on Epson R800

When printing a contact sheet from a recent upload of photo's to iPhoto, my Epson R800 is shrinking the page to 25% (1/4) size and there is nothing in the other 75% (3/4) of the page. I set it up to print on a 8.5 x 11 page, so can anyone be of help in figuring out why it is not priting a full page?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help & Merry Christmas to all...

Marc:
You're in the iPhoto 6 forum but I'll try to answer your question. You can't in iPhoto but there are a couple of workarounds.
One is to create a book with the Yearbook theme. Then put your pictures in one of the pages that have the number of photos per page that you want, up. up to 32 per page. It will automatically enter the file name under each picture. Do a Print to PDF of the book, open it with Preview and print just the page(s) you want. The downside to this method is that you only get landscape orientation for the page.
The other way is to use Galerie to create a web gallery of the pictures. It will let you include the file name under the pictures. You can set the number of photos per row and rows per page. Then open the gallery (just the index page) in Safari and print from there.
Do you Twango?
