Title: Another Leopard and 3800 thread
Post by: vandevanterSH on December 17, 2007, 09:45:12 pm
I have been unable to get my 3800+Mac Pro+Leopard to work properly.  With the "old" drivers I got "off" colors.  I waited for the updated drivers and have installed the 12-07 released drivers. With the new driver,   the Epson printer utilities work properly, but trying to print from either LR or CS3,  I get a "client-error-not-possible" error.  I assume this is a OS error message.  I have removed all of the old drivers and reinstalled the new one;  I am connected via USB cable.  The printer works fine with my Mac book Pro running Tiger.

Help would be appreciated;  I am not terribly computer  "handy" so if it doesn't work right out of the box, I am in trouble.

Thanks..Steve

I did the following:my Epson is connected via Ethernet/WiFi Bridge and it works fine.

I hope this helps.

I have a 3850, and my iMac is running Leopard with one of the latest Epson drivers.

I did the following:
  • downloaded the latest driver (from the Singapore site (http://www.epson.com.sg/epson/drivers/driver_download.htm) — N.B. the driver pages seem to be inaccessible at this time)
  • ran the installer to uninstall the existing driver
  • ran the installer to install the new driver
  • reset my printer system. in System Preferences/Print & Fax, control-click on the Printers list and choose Reset printing system.
  • clicked the + button and added my Epson 3850 again.

I hope this helps.
