Re: iMacDV dying off

[Kris Paige]

Since we're discussing iMac DVs and their funkier tendencies, I hope 
somebody here can give me the ammunition I need with Apple: I've been 
screaming at Epson for a month now: got a brand new CX6400, and while 
it WILL print in 9.2.2, it refuses to allow the printer in 10.2.8. I 
keep getting an "Error 1280". So, having spent hours on the phone with 
Epson support <my nickels>, I wrote them a letter that may have smoked 
a bit upon opening. They responded nicely, even letting me talk to the 
head of the team that developed the 6400!  However, not even he could 
make "error 1280" disappear.

So, while they're working on that from their end, I called Apple Tech 
Support, figuring that since my OS X is new, installed by an authorized 
Apple reseller/dealer, etc, maybe THEY could tell me how to get around 
1280, which is a "bad connection reference number" under the data 
stream protocol drivers <note: I have NO idea what that means>

Lucky me--they told me that since my MACHINE is out of warranty, they 
can't help me. I tried to explain that it's not the machine, it's the 
OSX that's giving the printer fits!

So, anyone got a good way to get Apple's attention ,so I can print from 
X?
