Click the Add button.ħ If the printer driver for your model is included in Snow Leopard (not downloaded from the Epson website) and the system does not add the printer or if it adds it using the Gutenprint driver, contact Apple for assistance. The system should automatically detect the printer. Click the (+) button to enter the Printer Browser window. Note: Do step number 5 only if this is the only printer currently installed in this computer.ĥ Press the CTRL button on the keyboard and click on the white box on the left (where the printers should be listed) and click on RESET Printing System.Ħ Turn on the printer. Click OK to confirm the removal.ģ Click on the Apple icon in the upper left corner of Finder and open System Preferences.Ĥ In the System Preferences window, click on Print & Fax. Please follow the instructions below to re-add the correct driver.Ģ Delete the print queue and remove the printer from Print & Fax by clicking on the minus (-) button under the list of printers. The issue is possibly due to an incorrect driver being used by the computer. I do apologize if you are unable to print with your Snow Leopard operating system. With the gutenprint v5.2.3 it works for me! Here you can select epson stylus photo rx700 - gutenprint v5.2.3. Step 7, I did not understand, but in the printer window (where you get those errors) select printer set up / driver / print using. Hi, I had the same thing and contacted Epson, below their support, which I followed. You remove any of your system files I may have mentioned at your own risk. Life is printing good again for my client.ĭisclaimer: I'm no longer a professional computer technician and haven't been since OS 9 was mainstream, I just help where I can. I trashed those two pref files that I pulled from the library.ĩ. I went on to regression test a few other peripherals that were attached to the tower, like an Epson Scanner, before I called it a success.Ĩ. Send a test print from email, web page, Adobe product.ħ. Check the printer prefs to ensure it's the default printer and the queue is clear and the printer utility monitoring is talking to the printer.Ħ. Note: DO NOT USE THE CD that came with the printer if it was obtained before Snow Leopard came out. I downloaded the latest driver from Epson. I'd trash them after I knew it was working again.ģ.

I held on to them in case I made a bad choice of removing files. Then I went into the HD system folder/users/ library/printers (I don't recall the exact path) and searched out a couple of printer prefs one was called printer ist and another file ".printer cache (sp?)" to the desktop. I went to system preferences/Printers and removed the printer by highlighting and selecting the "-" button.Ģ. I'm doing this from memory and don't have a Mac in front of me, so bare with me:ġ.

I essentially had to clean install the printer driver and remove 2 printing prefs. I just fixed a problem with the same error on an Epson 1400 attached to a Mac Tower Pro.
