Thanks for the info. I have an I-mac desktop and a powerbook G4 that print via an Airport extreme on Tiger. I updated last week to Leopard 10.5.3 and I could not print to my Epson stylus cx6000 printer via Bonjour on the G4, but the I-mac could. I tried every fix I could find but no luck. I've been through all of the Apple genius people and left the computer w/ them twice and they could not help. I do see some problems with this set-up though; the printout is sometimes out of vertical alignment. I can sometimes fix this by previewing it first and then printing. I also noticed that I can not print through my USB with the correct Epson driver (not Gluten) - initially I could, only the wireless failed. Any problems like this on your end?

GutenPrint didn't work for me--Leopard was said to have printing bugs for large prints--

Quote from my CAD software, tech support-- "Leopard has introduced problems printing to larger formats. Standard letter sizes, or even twice that size should print properly, but depending on your printer, you will likely have problems printing to larger sizes .... The only work-around that we are aware of is to use a different system, such as 10.4.11, or Windows .... These problems do not occur when running OS X 10.4.11 (so if your computer can run this version of OS X, you might consider installing this on a separate drive or partition as a temporary work-around.) These problems have been reported to Apple, and hopefully they will fix them soon. "

Ever more reason to keep very a very old computer functional? Just to keep an old printer functioning? Is this the future of computing, old computers, old OS, to tend old peripherals?

I don't mind the USB wires, i just want the ability print the occasional large print from CAD, (without having to buy new printers, if the old one is still OK. Why land fill more e-waste when it actually could function on older OS versions?)

I'd prefer more backward-compatibility, backward-emulation-ability and less futuristic bloatware.

So let me see if I understand this:
I've got an Epson R1800 and a Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5. I just tried printing an 11x17 print and it was extremely light (almost draft-like quality). After downloading what I thought was the latest driver, I tried again, to no avail. Every time I try and load a new printer it only provides me with the Gutenprint selection.
Does this mean that I can't print large size under 10.5.3????
Any known work-arounds????
Thanks,

Using what version and what driver? There is a know problem with the Gutenprint drivers v5.1.3 that come pre-installed with Leopard. For Epson printers, they will default to Draft mode unless you specify a specific resolution. Later versions of the Gutenprint drivers have corrected this.

After downloading what I thought was the latest driver, I tried again, to no avail. Every time I try and load a new printer it only provides me with the Gutenprint selection.


What version of the Gutenprint drivers are you using? What settings have you tried under the Printer Features section of a print window? You need to make sure that you select the type of paper you are using to print. You should also set the *Image Type* (Output Control Common 2) for the type of job you are printing. If things are still too light, you can try increasing the Density or perhaps just the *Black Density* under Output Control Extra 1 2.

Any known work-arounds????


Have you tried the driver from Epson. It is not included with Leopard. You need to download and install it separately. Start at _ http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/SupportLeopard.jsp_ to find the driver download.

Matt, thanks for your thorough reply.
I'm using Gutenprint v5.1.3. I have downloaded the latest driver from Epson and installed it. I'm not sure where it's installing it, because every time I use Print and Fax to search for a new driver, all that is available is the Gutenprint 5.1.3 one.

Per your suggestions, I did mess around with some of the controls under Printer Features (thanks for that tip; I didn't even know all those controls were there). However, after 3 successive prints w/ various types of adjustments (including a density adjustment), ALL 3 prints were still of a "draft quality." I tried the Print Quality at both "standard" and "high" with the same results.

Any other ideas?

P.S. I also just upgraded to 10.5.4, but that didn's seem to make a difference either.

Matt, after re-reading your advice, I went to the Epson site and "re-downloaded" the driver - but this time I could select the one for 10.5.4 (since I just updated).
After that install and a test print, the product printed w/ the correct density. I don't have any large paper to check for my original issue (an 11x17 print), but I'm hoping this will resolve it.
Thanks again.

If you continue to use the v5.1.3 of the Gutenprint drivers, you need to specify the Resolution you want to use such as 720dpi or 1440x1400dpi. Please try one of those settings. Changing the *Print Quality* to High will have no effect with the v5.1.3 drivers. You must specify a specific Resolution or it will print in Draft mode.

A better idea would be to upgrade the Gutenprint drivers to v5.2.0-beta3. You can download them from _ http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3_.

I think with Epson you need to 1st delete all the existing Epson drivers Especially the Gutenprint ones BEFORE you D/L & Install the newest driver specifically for your Epson printer model. I had problems with the Epson CX6600 & the new Leopard compatible drivers 8 months ago. No matter what I did the Epson printer was still using those default Gutenprint drivers. Epson (finally) replied with step by step instructions on how to get rid of all those Epson drivers and then install the new ones --it did work. BTW, now I had to get rid of my Epson CX6600 & I am trying to use a new CX7400 & I D/L & installed the new drivers but I failed to uninstall the Epson CX6600 drivers. I have an email pending with Epson. I thought I didn't need to do it since I had cleaned my Mac 8 months ago of those Gutenprint drivers. I thought the CX6600 & the new CX7400 drivers could "live together" Now I can print but, cannot launch the scan utility. Will await reply from Epson but I will probably need to trash the old Epson drivers b4 reinstalling the new ones. It would have been helpful if Epson mentioned this on their website.

I had a similar problem. I did a Google search, found this thread:

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7336404&tstart=0

saw that my printer was on the list to which the driver would be applicable, and I downloaded and installed the Gutenprint driver below:
