I’m afraid I must have read your message before coffee this morning – often a bad idea! – and I thought you were reporting on a color problem under OS X 10.6.x. I’m going to reinstall a bunch of things.ĭion: I need to update/clarify something I wrote in the previous post. So beyond that, I’m not sure why this problem started at my end.

Someone else in another thread suggested that Epson printer drivers had some problems starting around 10.5.6 (perhaps only with some systems there are too many variables in how a user’s Mac might be set up to make any generalizations).

Some may be explained by incorrect settings, but I wonder if there is some other issue that causes this problem? I have printed with my Epson successfully for some time before this problem came up, and I’m quite familiar with the printing settings and how to configure them for correct colour management. You are quite correct that the green or magenta cast can occur with certain incorrect settings.Īlthough you (and others) have had no problems with 10.5.8 and Epson, many have reported that they have. No need to clarify for me as I mentioned I spent many hours researching this, and have seen many discussions outside the contents of this thread.

Is it possible that you have a problem with clogged heads on your printer? If you haven’t already done so run the print head test and make sure that all of the colors are printing properly and run the head cleaning process if not.ĭan, thanks for the comments, much appreciated.

If one is wrong the print will turn out poorly. Because there are so many places where a wrong setting can occur, I can occasionally get trapped by this: the right profile and color management setting (Photoshop) in the first print dialog (correct paper and printer), and then in the second dialog the correct paper (again!) and the correct color management setting (none).

This was in the middle of some printing work in which I had otherwise selected the right driver profile settings. Just last week I accidentally printed a test image on my 7900 using the settings for a 2200 with predictably awful results. I know I’ve done this more than once myself.

If you are – as I have been know to do – making all of the settings manually each time you print it is possible that you missed one.

Please either leave a comment or send me an email.ĭion, two possibilities come to mind – I’ll just toss them out on the off chance that they might help.

I welcome any information about the printer issue that you may have.

One pleasant surprise was that the installation gave me back 125GB of space on my main drive!

Other than this issue – serious to me, but probably a non-issue to most – the upgrade has otherwise been positive.

As a – otherwise very successful – beta tester of Snow Leopard, I should not have allowed my enthusiasm for the new OS and otherwise good experience with it on the test machine to blind me to the standard practice of waiting a while to install on my production machine.

This may take a while, as I don’t have any urgent printing business to take care of.

I will try to continue reporting on my CS4/Epson 2200/Snow Leopard printing issue as I continue to try to understand and resolve it.

Since the photo was one that I had not previously printed I decide to remove one variable and instead print a color image that I had successfully printed right before installing the update to OS X. I do a restart and try the profile installer one more time – still no go. I attempt to download and reinstall the Epson profile for the Epson Premium Lustre paper I’m using at the moment. But the print emerges looking very green and way too dark. Things seem to be going more or less OK as I work my way through the usual setup and print process: Photoshop manages colors and all. So, I fire up Photoshop and try to make a test print using a black and white image. Now I can see the printer via its Firewire connection… but not, as far as I can tell, via its USB connection.

Download and run their updater for drivers under 10.6ĭone.

Download the most recent pre-10.6 drivers for my printer and install.

Install Rosetta from Apple install disk.

I finally went to the Epson web site and followed their instructions which include: No luck – the system didn’t even see the connected printer. Knowing that Snow Leopard supposedly will add new drivers as needed I tried to use the 10.6 preference panel to add drivers for the 2200. The first problem I encountered was that the Epson 2200 sitting next to my computer no longer appeared in the the printer dialogs in Photoshop. After the very trouble-free experience on the test machine I went ahead and installed in on my photography workstation yesterday.

I was actually on the beta test list for “Snow Leopard,” so I have been using it without problems for a while – but not on the computer I use for my photographic work but rather on a separate laptop.
