Very limited printing...

[Giedo]

I just got myself the great Epson R2400.
Followed installation steps carefully, but I just found out that my printer dialogue is very limited.
No paper choices, no color management...
Then I found out that my new Intel Mac needed a new driver from Epson, so I downloaded that from their website.... But now what? I still have the limited printer dialogue. How do I know the new driver is actually used instead of the old one that I installed from the CD?
How do I tackle this one?

Thanks in advance!

 I have an Intel Mac and a 2400 and it took me a while to get it setup. The first thing you need to do is download .icc profiles from Epson USA. In LR then go to Develop/ Print Settings and select COLOR Management. Select OFF(no adjustment). Next move to PRINT SETTINGS and select your paper. Under mode go to advanced and uncheck high speed and select Photo RPM for print quality. Do Not use the save button but go to Presets and select "Save As" with your paper name.

I am 75 so sometimes my way is not logical but the above works for me.
