Re: [Digital BW] Epson install problem after ImagePrint

2003-10-20 by kenschuster

Thanks, Bob (from a different Ken). I have three printers on my system
and ran into the same problem trying to get two of them back to
working, after attaching and re-attaching all the cables and finding
new curse words. I tried re-installed the IP demo three times and
discovered that in doing so, I created three new ports. I hope it
hasn't invaded anything else... the registry, for example, as you
pointed out. It seems like the folks at IP are inconsiderate in more 
ways than just the reportedly unresponsiveness.

Ken,

As you may have seen, I'm also having trouble with IP and my 2100. In all
the reading, rebooting, and reinstalling that I've done, I have read that IP
disables your existing Epson driver by various means to avoid conflict with
its own driver. When uninstalling it, using its own uninstaller since it
doesn't use the normal windows Uninstaller for some reason, it seems to
leave a new printer port that it sets up - called
C:\programfiles\iP\spool\printers\Epson 2200. You can delete this by going
to Settings/Printers/yourprinter(1270)/Properties/Ports and checking that
this new port is not there after uninstallation. If it is, delete it in that
menu, and recheck the box opposite your normal port for the 1270. IP's
uninstaller may also leave the printer installed; go to Settings/Printers
and manually delete it if necessary. On at least one occasions it said it
couldn't uninstall all the files, and I had to go to Program Files\IP and
delete the folders manually. I haven't yet looked to see what it might be
leaving in the Registry!
