Hi, it's been awhile since I've posted. Hope all is well with you all.
I purchased an Epson 7880 about a year and a half ago. I've had no problems with it printing on roll canvas and the output is beautiful. Then just this week I've experienced an issue where the image is printed cropped and partly off the side of the canvas. It's as if it thinks it's printing to a letter size sheet. The part of the image that prints is about 7.75" wide.
I've not used the printer for awhile and thought I would do a nozzle check. So I set it to letter and printed the nozzle check on letter size stock. Since then I've had an issue where it won't print full width.
I've done everything I can think of. I've even reset to factory settings.
This issue is the same printing from Photoshop CS3 or inDesign CS3. I don't think it's document settings. I'm sure it's some simple thing that my simple mind can't wrap itself around.
Any suggestions would be most helpful.
Thanks in advance,
John Crittenden
Update: I figured it out. Not sure why yet but Epson now seems more demanding in their paper size settings. Some of the custom sizes I used with previous drivers under Mac OS 10.4.6 don't seem to work the same under 10.5.7 and the new printer driver. Anyway, it's printing full width now and the correct size image. Sometimes I think this is a bit too much for an old artist. I had no trouble at all when I used to sit under a tree for a couple hours and crank out a painting. But then this technology which allows us to make multiple quality limited editions has it's benefits for sure. I love it.
