Re: [Digital BW] QTR Mac - devil in the details

2004-09-13 by James Haney

Steve,

What happens is this: I go to the Printer Setup Utility and select 
Epson USB and there are no printers there.

Once I uninstall every printer driver on my Mac and re-install the 
Epson Supplied drivers things work again.

I am going to approach this in a very systematic way tonight and see if 
I can figure out how to get it all working.

If you go to the Printer Setup Utility on your machine right now, click 
"Add" and select Epson USB, do you see your printer? (make sure it is 
on).

Thanks,

James
