Re: [WAMUG] Printer Advice please

[Daniel Kerr via WAMUG]

Hi Rod

I can definitely recommend the Epson EcoTank series - I sell a lot of them to 
my clients and find them very good.
(And we run two at home - one specifically for photo printing and one for “day 
to day stuff”. It replaced my colour epson laser I had. And the running cost is 
very cheap. On one set of refillable inks you can get up to 2 years of printing.
And the bottles are only around $25 each colour - and again last up to 2 years 
of printing. And I’ve always found the Epson range to be reliable and kept up 
to date with drivers.
Any of the entry level Ecotnaks should do - eg something like ET -1810 or 
ET-2810/2811 would be fine.
Note that some of the cheaper models don’t have AirPrint (they have “wireless 
printing direct” which requires another App if you want to print from your 
iPhone or iPad (not as “easy” as Airprnt).
Then it just depends on features you want - eg do you want it to have a screen 
on it for ease of copying, flatbed scanning versus ADF (Automatic Document 
Feeder) etc,…..
So more features can cost a bit more up front obviously.

Hope that helps.
Kind regards
Daniel

Re: Printer to NBN router

[Neil Houghton]

Hi Jennifer,

 

You asked this question back on the 14th and Ronni suggested this site:

 

https://crowdsupport.telstra.com.au/t5/Modems-Hardware/Canon-printer-not-wirelessly-connecting-to-new-TELSTRA-router/td-p/541786

 

which shows quite a few people having similar problems and a couple of 
solutions that worked for some:

 

Solution 1)

I just got connected today with nbn and having same issue connecting to the 
printer. Then i worked out what i was doing wrong,. Try the following if you 
havent yet.

 

Go to wlan setting on printerlook for where it says to connect access 
point. You then have to hold the "Pair" Button on front of the modem while you 
sel ok on the printer. Hold the "Pair Button to printer says all is connected.  
Hope this helps.

 

Solution 2)

had the same problem with my canon printer.

Here's what I did.

On the printer I scrolled through and clicked on WLAN

then wireless Lan setup ok

then red stop button for other setup option

then other setup ok

then Advanced set up ok

I was then able to select my Telstra access point ok

then the security settings there was only one setting in white letters so I 
scrolled down to that ok

then I put in the password that was on my new gateway and then ok and then the 
problem was solved.

I can print and scan to my heart's content.

sorry this is not very technical but if you follow the steps it will work and 
you don't have to reinstall your rpinter.

 

 

I’m not sure if you missed Ronni’s suggestion or if you have already tried all 
these with no success?

 

HTH

 

 

Cheers

 

 

Neil

Hi Jennifer,
Is it a Telstra Router?

Go to wlan setting on printerlook for where it says to connect access 
point. You then have to hold the "Pair" Button on front of the router while you 
select ok on the printer. Hold the "Pair Button to printer says all is connected

Epson printer XP-442

[FW]

Good morning all,

Is there a way of making this new printer (Epson XP-442) work with an older 
iMac G4 with OS 10.4.11 ?
Epson tell me there is no driver for this iMac.

Thanks,

Walter

Hi Stephen
No worries enjoy the new printer!
I’m sure others on this site can give more details on VueScan than I.

Re: Canon MX340 Printer/Scanner/Copier free to good home

[Stephen Chape]

Hi Peter.

I have not come across VueScan.
If they write their own drivers perhaps it would be OK.

But I now have a new Epson printer so quite happy.
The Epson scanning software is more user friendly than my older Cannon anyway.
It also uses less space on my desk and has a 100 sheet paper cartridge (that I 
never had).

Canon MX340 Printer/Scanner/Copier free to good home

[Stephen Chape]

Hi folks.

The above Printer is in perfect condition.
But will no longer scan for Macs using High Sierra.
Canon confirmed that they no longer update drivers for this model.
So if you are not updating to High Sierra it is no problem.

It is complete with original Software Disks.
I also have an unused Colour Cartridge to go with it.

Stephen Chape

[Stephen Chape]

Hi folks,

Just got this reply from Canon.
So I will be buying a new printer very soon.
It has done well for my last 3 iMacs, so no complaints.

Dear Stephen,
Thank you for contacting Canon Australia.

Due to a number of factors including design, requirements and age of the 
printer,there is no driver suitable for the and your operating system (Mac 
10.13 High sierra).  We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this has 
caused.

Stephen Chape

So far so good, thank you, Ronni, apart from a problem with the Telstra
line - nothing to do with the Mac or the router.  However, it may mean I
discover some things once that resistance is fixed.

Hi Jennifer.
May require a printer driver upgrade ?
Check the Cannon website for driver downloads.
Not sure but that would be may direction.

Printer set up

[Jennifer Lefroy]

Since upgrading to Sierra on my iMac, my printer is not connected. It is a
Cannon TS5060.  I have tried unsuccessfully to set up for Sierra, with
wireless connection. It gets as far as Step 2 "searching for printer on
network" and then reverts to the Printer selection list.  I have checked
that the correct printer is selected in Preferences.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Thank you,
Jennifer

Hi Allen

My Canon MP560 is still going strong after many years of use - and takes the 
inks you have listed.
I would be interested - please reply off-line if they are still available.

Re: Photo Printer, Photoshop & Ancient Mac

[Diana & Graham Stevens]

Hi Daniel

Thanks for all the information. 

The SC-600 has high-capacity cartridges which are expensive and we do not print 
large numbers of photos. I shall probably stick with my original idea, the 
SC-450.

The 2100 cartridges have already been claimed.

Best wishes from Diana

Re: Photo Printer, Photoshop & Ancient Mac

[Daniel Kerr]

Hi Diana

I’ve got a client with the SC-P600 (from memory) and he’s very happy with it. 
They are quite a good printer. I supplied that model to another client as well. 
I still find the Epson range very good. So although I haven’t had any personal 
experience myself directly, I know a couple people with them that are happy 
with them.

The WiFI printing works well, and you can connect the printer direct to the 
modem with Ethernet as well. This can sometimes be a bit more reliable.
(You may be able to still print to it from the G4 via Print Sharing or 
similar,…but without drivers for the older OS, it may be a little more 
difficult).

Java to install for CS4 on the 10.8.5 machine isn’t too bad. I’ve done it for a 
few clients using the Apple link and it was pretty easy. (as another option).

Hope that info helps.

Kind regards
Daniel

Photo Printer, Photoshop & Ancient Mac

[Diana & Graham Stevens]

My Epson Stylus Photo 2100 has given up and I would like to replace it. There 
are so many possibilities it is hard to chose, if anyone can suggest a suitable 
replacement I would be grateful. The Epson SureColor SC-P405 looks about 
equivalent, does anyone have experience with this model?

My choice is complicated by the fact that the 2100 has been attached to my old 
G4 Quicksilver on which I run Adobe CS1 in OS 10.3. This is quite adequate for 
my requirements. There are of course no Printer Drivers for ancient OS so the 
new Printer will not be connected to the G4. I expect it will be connected to 
the Network via WiFi and all our computers will be able to access it (including 
the G4 which is connected via Ethernet).

Otherwise I shall need to do something about Photoshop and my usage is not 
regular enough to justify a monthly subscription. Photoshop Elements does not 
do enough. I did buy a second-hand copy of CS3 to run on my MacBook Pro (OS 
10.8.5) but it requires Java which I have been loth to install.

I had just purchased a new set of the 7 ink cartridges. If anyone would like 
them for free I shall retrieve them from Well Connected. I had hoped it was 
just the switch which was faulty so I wasted $150 on a diagnosis (mother 
board). It is possible one may be available but it will cost as much as a new 
printer and no warranty.

Before I abandon the repair path I would like reassurance that a WiFi connected 
Network Printer will work. If any one has comments on any of this please let me 
know.

Re: Epson printer network visibility

[Peter Crisp]

Hi all, with Ronni’s help again off list Ronni (with permission) reviewed my 
printer status report. The report indicated that the bonjour service was not 
enabled. Ronni indicated this should be enabled. Once on the trail I was able 
to go into the Epson Netconfig software and browse to the TCP/IP area and 
select the “Bonjour” enable option. A few minutes later I was printing ok. I 
have also been able to AirPrint for iOS devices. I am yet to set up a Scan 
wirelessly back to a folder or MBP. Will work through the User Manual to 
configure that.

I am unclear on why the bonjour service became disabled following the 
decommissioning of my previous Epson printer but it’s a tip to verify when any 
of you are setting up a new printer. Was very frustrating to be able to know it 
was connected to the Network, could Cloud print ok, but not simple config over 
the network.

Regards

Pete.

Re: Epson printer network visibility

[Peter Crisp]

Hi Ronni, back home now. Incidentally while I was in Albany I tested my MBP on 
Sev’s network and straight up it spotted his Fuji printer in my “Add” panel.

So on my MBP and my wife's MBP I have fully run through the Epson installation 
process each time it completed successfully and said “go to System Preferences 
and select Printers and Scanners and then “+””. So I do that and the Add panel 
on both MBP is blank - no printer showing at all. I have verified at the 
printer that it has a healthy network connection and this is confirmed (Also 
turned OFF then ON again twice). Also independently verified by Epsonconnect 
print jobs getting to the printer successfully from the internet.

It’s got me stumped why it doesn’t show. 

The printer seems fine, the MBP’s seem fine the network config could be flawed 
preventing the visibility but I have no idea where to go next. Especially 
curious as my previous Epson was fine on the network and easily visible. 
Network settings have not changed at all.

Any tips appreciated.

Pete...

Re: Epson printer network visibility

[Ronni Brown]

Hi Peter,

You're sure you have the latest Printer drivers installed? 
<https://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?UseCookie=yes=233682=Downloads
 
<https://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?UseCookie=yes=233682=Downloads>>
Epson WF-4630 Series. 
Is the Wi-Fi icon ON the product's control panel?
Your Airport Wireless Network is a Dual-Band 5GHz & 2.5GHz?

When you click on " [+] then 'Add Printer or Scanner' , does it open up the 
Default window - Name: Location: Use:?
Can you type the Epson Printer name in Search field and find the Printer that 
way?
Can you Add the Printer using its IP Address or Name?
And you have 'Printer Sharing' turned ON in System Preferences > Sharing?
Does the Epson printer show in Sharing under Printers:?

On your Printer LCD settings - Print a Network Status sheet.
If it's similar to my Epson TX810FW
1. Enter the Setup mode.
2. Select Network Settings.
3. Select Confirm Network Settings
4. Confirm the connection status. If you want to print status sheet, press 
Start.
That will show you the Network settings details and give you a clue.

Have you tried 'Reset' the entire print system? Sometimes it’s necessary to 
reset the entire printing system. 
From the Printers & Scanners preferences, use secondary (Control-click) in the 
printers list (left panel), and choose “Reset printing system” from the 
shortcut menu. 
Click OK in the verification dialog. 
Next you’ll have to authenticate as an administrative user. 

This clears all configured devices, shared settings, custom presets, and queued 
print jobs. 
While this may seem drastic, it’s likely to clear up any software-related 
printing issues.

Then try to Add the Epson WF-4630 Series printer.


Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Epson printer network visibility

[petercrisp]

 Thanks Ronni, see comments alongside below.
You're sure you have the latest Printer drivers installed? I figured
when I did the online installation and registration the driver update
would have occured. I suppose it's possible that didn't happen so will
ensure tonight.Epson WF-4630 Series. Is the Wi-Fi icon ON the
product's control panel? YesYour Airport Wireless Network is a
Dual-Band 5GHz & 2.5GHz? Yes - on the LCD panel for the printer, the
network SSID appears twice with both ticked.
When you click on " [+] then 'Add Printer or Scanner' , does it open
up the Default window - Name: Location: Use:? When I click the "+",
the Add window opens up. There are no printers listed in the Default
window.Can you type the Epson Printer name in Search field and find
the Printer that way? Not tried this but I will.Can you Add the
Printer using its IP Address or Name? Yes, In the IP screen I can add
it that way and then it will print - however the IP gets reassigned
whenever network rebooted - usually for non related reasons.And you
have 'Printer Sharing' turned ON in System Preferences > Sharing? Not
sure - will check tonight.Does the Epson printer show in Sharing under
Printers:? Will check tonight.
On your Printer LCD settings - Print a NETWORK STATUS SHEET.If it's
similar to my Epson TX810FW1. Enter the Setup mode.
2. Select Network Settings.
3. Select Confirm Network Settings
4. Confirm the connection status. If you want to print status sheet,
press Start.That will show you the Network settings details and give
you a clue. Yes, I did this and it all appeared good - no errors
noted, IP was assigned OK, SSID was correctly noted. Will review again
tonight.
Have you tried 'Reset' the entire print system? Sometimes it’s
necessary to reset the entire printing system. Yes,I did this as well
last night to no avail.From the Printers & Scanners preferences, use
secondary (Control-click) in the printers list (left panel), and
choose “RESET PRINTING SYSTEM” from the shortcut menu. Click OK
in the verification dialog. Next you’ll have to authenticate as an
administrative user. 
This clears all configured devices, shared settings, custom presets,
and queued print jobs. While this may seem drastic, it’s likely to
clear up any software-related printing issues.
Then try to Add the Epson WF-4630 Series printer. After the reset, I
tried this again, from my own and my wifes MBP, again with no
visibility.
There are some new things to try in what you provided here, thanks
again Ronni for detailed items on this. I hope I sort it tonight - I'm
sure the printer wont work if I end up tossing it into the pool! Just
kidding.
Regards
Pete...

Hi Peter,

I assume you followed the initial setup instructions for the Epson WF-4630 
workforce multifunction printer.

In System Preferences > Printers & Scanners - you select the product name that 
you want to connect, and then select the Epson product name on the Use menu - 
then click Add 
The printer driver is automatically downloaded by the Apple Software Updater.

The first thing to try is turn OFF the printer and then Turn if ON again to see 
if it connects and your Mac can find it.

What have you tried?
Have you checked the Printer's diagnostic screen  - Network settings?

Epson printer network visibility

[Peter Crisp]

I had to retire my trust Epson printer from 2009 and I got another Epson 
printer. Has some good features WF-4630 model. Anyway I went through the 
process and it connects to the wireless network no problem and I can print via 
the cloud registered service now but I cannot see it on the network via the Sys 
prefs>Printers window. I press the “+” to add a printer and it does not report 
in the window. If I select “Window” it goes to workgroups and then I see the 
printer name, I select and then nothing more happens (after entering password 
naturally).

So I can print via the cloud and using the great Epson app - but can’t do the 
most basic thing of printing directly to the network. It seems like a network 
protocol issue preventing visibility but I am unsure how to resolve.

Anyone else have this issue or tips to resolve?

Re: Colour Laser Printer

[Tim Law]

Peter you can buy awfully cheap colour lasers now - I bought one at Office 
Works for a few hundred dollars for a business I work at. It prints probably 30 
sheets a day and is reliable. It just plugged into my Mac via USB, and also 
runs off the wireless network. It does not do automatic double sided, but if 
you are only doing a few copies, you could reload them manually I would think.

Re: Brother printer not connecting to iMac Yosemite

[Philippe Chaperon]

Hi Ronni, 

In brief SUCCESS! and merci beaucoup. 

I have had to go to your Steps 3 and 4 after I had un-installed the Brother 
Printer Driver, then downloaded the driver as per your link, then re-installed 
making sure the printer was not connected to the iMac … and true to form your 
instructions made things work correctly. 

Having had bought many Brother mono laser printers, I swear by them and have 
recommended them to family  friends, I should have remembered one important 
thing. When installing the Driver software, the USB cable between the printer 
and iMac must be disconnected . I originally forgot about this and your 
instructions reminded me of this when you mentioned to try Instruction 1 - 
Power OFF  Unplug the power cable. This set my memory synapses going!

I suppose that having reset the printing system is what sorted my problem. When 
I think that I was about to go to Office Works to purchase another printer 
thinking the printer, which was unused for close to 12 months, had failed. Now, 
‘she who must be obeyed’ will be happy ...

Looks like this might be your first success for 2015 on the WAMUG list and many 
thanks.

Best regards to you and all WAMUG’gers, 

Philippe Chaperon

Re: Brother printer not connecting to iMac Yosemite

[Ronni Brown]

Hi Philippe,

It's good to hear your printer problem is solved. Yes, I was fairly sure you 
would need to do Steps 3 and 4 to solve the issue.
I also should have mentioned to make sure you disconnect the Printer if you 
found you needed to install a new Printer Driver.

Ah no, its not my first success for 2015 on WAMUG. -actually my 5th I think ;-)
Stephen Chape 'CIJScannerRegister' 4/01/2015 -  'David Noel 'DVD burner..', 
then Tony Francis 'single key repeat..' 07/01/2015, and John Thompson 'Safari

 Hi Ronni, 
 
 In brief SUCCESS! and merci beaucoup. 
 
 I have had to go to your Steps 3 and 4 after I had un-installed the Brother 
 Printer Driver, then downloaded the driver as per your link, then 
 re-installed making sure the printer was not connected to the iMac … and true 
 to form your instructions made things work correctly. 
 
 Having had bought many Brother mono laser printers, I swear by them and have 
 recommended them to family  friends, I should have remembered one important 
 thing. When installing the Driver software, the USB cable between the printer 
 and iMac must be disconnected . I originally forgot about this and your 
 instructions reminded me of this when you mentioned to try Instruction 1 - 
 Power OFF  Unplug the power cable. This set my memory synapses going!
 
 I suppose that having reset the printing system is what sorted my problem. 
 When I think that I was about to go to Office Works to purchase another 
 printer thinking the printer, which was unused for close to 12 months, had 
 failed. Now, ‘she who must be obeyed’ will be happy ...
 
 Looks like this might be your first success for 2015 on the WAMUG list and 
 many thanks.
 
 Best regards to you and all WAMUG’gers,

However if that cannot be cured you have provided an easy solution
Thankyou

 As an alternative I went through System Preferences and selected

Printer Connection

[Jennifer Lefroy]

Good Morning ,

We have a Canon MP 600 printer which is cable connected to the desktop OS X
10.8.4 running Mountain Lion.  Our lap top until recently would remotely
connect to the printer.  Now its print jobs do not print and do not show up
in the print queue when I look at system preferences.  However,  when I go
to print something from the desktop, the jobs from the laptop print out
first.

Might this be the printer which is probably more than five years old and
also is unreliable for scanning, or does anyone have other suggestions,
please?

Jennifer

Re: Printer Connection

[Daniel Kerr]

Hi Jennifer

One thing to try is to delete the printer on both machines (System Preferences 
- Print  Scan - highlight the printer and use the minus (-) sigh to remove. ). 
Once deleted add the printer back on your iMac then make sure you can print 
again. 
Then in System Preferences - Sharing. Untick and re-tick Printer sharing to 
reactivate it. 

Then on the laptop add back the shared printer in System Preferences - Print  
Scan. Then see how the print job goes. 

Try that and see how goes. 

If the printer is on the way out though, then possibly cheaper to buy a new one 
then try to fix. (Epson make some great fully wireless printer/scanner units 
that are true wireless so don't require printer sharing or the iMac to even be 
on. And wirelessly scan very easy as well. And not too expensive which is good. 
Just as a side note). 

Hope that helps. 

Kind regards
Daniel

Re: Printer Connection

[Jennifer Lefroy]

The usual miracle working advice from you and all is well! Thank you both
very much from both of us.  We shall have to postpone that nice sounding
Epson, Daniel, till we have another excuse.

Kind regards,
Jennifer

 Hi Jennifer

 One thing to try is to delete the printer on both machines (System
 Preferences - Print  Scan - highlight the printer and use the minus (-)
 sigh to remove. ).
 Once deleted add the printer back on your iMac then make sure you can
 print again.
 Then in System Preferences - Sharing. Untick and re-tick Printer sharing
 to reactivate it.

 Then on the laptop add back the shared printer in System Preferences -
 Print  Scan. Then see how the print job goes.

 Try that and see how goes.

 If the printer is on the way out though, then possibly cheaper to buy a
 new one then try to fix. (Epson make some great fully wireless
 printer/scanner units that are true wireless so don't require printer
 sharing or the iMac to even be on. And wirelessly scan very easy as well.
 And not too expensive which is good. Just as a side note).

 Hope that helps.

 Kind regards
 Daniel

 Good Morning ,

 We have a Canon MP 600 printer which is cable connected to the desktop OS
 X 10.8.4 running Mountain Lion.  Our lap top until recently would remotely
 connect to the printer.  Now its print jobs do not print and do not show up
 in the print queue when I look at system preferences.  However,  when I go
 to print something from the desktop, the jobs from the laptop print out
 first.

 Might this be the printer which is probably more than five years old and
 also is unreliable for scanning, or does anyone have other suggestions,
 please?

 Jennifer

Re: Stylewriter printer

Daniel,

I have decided to save all the trouble and give him one of my own 
printers which has an OS 9 driver.  It is a Canon i560 which has 
separate ink tanks (without chips) that are cheap as chips from Hong Kong.

Thanks for your help,

Re: Stylewriter printer

Geoff and Kaye, and Robert,

I have decided to give him one of my own Canon printers which has an OS

It is a Canon i560 which has separate ink tanks (without chips) that are 
cheap as chips from Hong Kong. I have been refilling the tanks for years 
and of late, using the HK tanks and I know it will serve him well.

Thanks for your kind offer help,

We seem to have a Stylewriter 1200 (with manual even!) under the bench. There 
might be another one or something similar out in the shed.

I am not sure if it works, but it probably does. I have no idea if we have a 
driver for it, but we might.

Re: Blocked printer nozzle

[Ronni Brown]

Hi Merv,

I'm pleased you have got a good result; as just taking an Epson Printer to an 
Epson Service centre costs normally $100-$200.
Which makes it not really a viable solution, normally better option is to buy a 
new Epson MF Printer.
Especially when you have to travel from down south to Perth as I do :(
There used to be only one Epson Service Centre and it was in Wembley I think.

Yes, 'head cleaning' uses quite a bit of ink. I found on my previous Epson 
TX700W MF using the 'Printer Control Panel'  Setup  Maintenance  Head 
Cleaning does a more thorough job of cleaning the print heads if the Utility 
doesn't fix things.
I have not had to clean the Print Heads on my current Epson TX810FW.

My next suggestion if my previous suggestions did not solve the problem, was to 
check what message is displayed on the TX600FW 'Control Panel'.

Good outcome for you anyway.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Parallels and printer drivers

I'll let you know what the outcome is, but it might be a week or so until I can

 Hi Daniel,
 
 Yes, I agree that in theory the printer should work exactly as you say; the 
 same as it does in Windows.
 But sometimes it is not that easy to setup to always use the Windows 
 drivers, it reverts to default  trys to use the Mac drivers (which Tim 
 mentions don't work properly in OS X).
 
 We require more info on the HP Printer, model number  driver version etc, 
 currently used in what version of Windows? Then check if that model does 
 work correctly in Parallels Desktop using the drivers installed in Windows 
 VM.
 
 As we know Windows is strange at the best of times... Very strange :-)
 
 Cheers,
 Ronni
 
 
 
 The easiest option might be simply to delete the printer entirely from the 
 Mac OS X setup, and install the Windows driver and print from Parallels. I 
 have a clint who has been running this setup successfully for years in her 
 real estate office, which has a Panasonic Copier for which there are no Mac 
 drivers at all. Printing directly from windows using Virtual Box (and now 
 VMWare Fusion) has always worked perfectly. I see no reason why Parallels 
 would be any different.
 
 My main tip for Tim: if you plan following up the virtualisation path, set up 
 your Mac's Home Folder as a shared folder in Windows. This way there is no 
 need to fiddle around with copying files, etc, because you are using exactly 
 the same files you have already created on the Mac side. Much more efficient.

Parallels and printer drivers

[Tim law]

Hello

I've a friend who has a fully Mac house/business, apart from one PC. 

She has one old but good large capacity HP A3 duplex laser printer she wants to 
keep, but the Mac OSX drivers do not allow her to use the full capacity of the 
printer features as she requires. Consequently she has to keep one her PC 
functional that simply runs the drivers for the HP printer. She sends all her 
print jobs to the PC in PDF format, then uses the PC to print them. This is 
effective, but tiresome and painful. 

She has a new Mac Mini, fully loaded with RAM and twin 256gb SSD hard drives as 
her main computer. 

My question is:
If I load Parallels and Windows, with the HP printer drivers, onto her Mac 
Mini, will Parallels always use the HP drivers when she is printing? Is there a 
reasonable prospect the printer will behave and communicate with Windows on the 
Mac in the same way it communicates now with the PC box?

Obviously she will need to open the document in Acrobat reader using Windows 
but the aim is to get rid of her PC and reclaim office space. 

Options for finding better Mac drivers for the HP have been explored, this 
query is about using an emulator and how it will perform with printer drivers 
in situations like this. 

Thanks

Tim

Re: Parallels and printer drivers

[Daniel Kerr]

Hi Tim

Parallels will normally use the Mac driver to print from. However if you tell 
it use the dedicated Windows driver then it should work fine and override 
that setting.
So therefor in theory it should run fine, the same as it does in Windows itself

Kind regards

Re: Parallels and printer drivers

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Daniel  Tim,

I'm not so sure that it will use the Windows installed drivers.
Parallels Desktop for Mac is designed to work with printers that require USB 
2.0 support. 
If your printer is more than 5 years old, it may not work with Parallels 
Desktop for Mac.

Re: Parallels and printer drivers

[Daniel Kerr]

Hi Ronni

For a network printer you can advise it to not use the Mac printer, but to 
override it and use the default printer. I've done that for a couple of clients 
and had it working fine. (Perhaps it was an older version though, I'll need to 
double check).
But I just installed the Windows software itself then set it up. Windows went 
through like normal and then created the drives, and away it went. Printing 
fine.

But yes, perhaps it's one of those hit and miss ones, where it depends on the 
version, the printer itself, and the setup/drivers. :o) lol
Windows is strange at the best of times,…..lol :)

Kind regards
Daniel

Re: Parallels and printer drivers

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Daniel,

Yes, I agree that in theory the printer should work exactly as you say; the 
same as it does in Windows.
But sometimes it is not that easy to setup to always use the Windows drivers, 
it reverts to default  trys to use the Mac drivers (which Tim mentions don't 
work properly in OS X).

We require more info on the HP Printer, model number  driver version etc, 
currently used in what version of Windows? Then check if that model does work 
correctly in Parallels Desktop using the drivers installed in Windows VM.

As we know Windows is strange at the best of times... Very strange :-)

Cheers,
Ronni

The easiest option might be simply to delete the printer entirely from the Mac 
OS X setup, and install the Windows driver and print from Parallels. I have a 
clint who has been running this setup successfully for years in her real estate 
office, which has a Panasonic Copier for which there are no Mac drivers at all. 
Printing directly from windows using Virtual Box (and now VMWare Fusion) has 
always worked perfectly. I see no reason why Parallels would be any different.

My main tip for Tim: if you plan following up the virtualisation path, set up 
your Mac's Home Folder as a shared folder in Windows. This way there is no need 
to fiddle around with copying files, etc, because you are using exactly the 
same files you have already created on the Mac side. Much more efficient.

How is your printer connected: USB or Ethernet? When you go to System 
Preferences  Print  Scan does the Xerox printer show in the list of devices? 
If so, the driver is probably working. You can confirm this by clicking the 
Options and Supplies... button and then the Driver tab. Your printer driver 
will show in the Print Using: menu in the Driver pane.

If you don't see your printer in the list of devices in Print  Scan then you 
most likely have a communication problem, but without knowing more about your 
setup it's not possible to speculate just what that might be.

Re: Samsung printer

[Ronda Brown]

Hi John,

I don't really know about Samsung Laser Printers, but as no-one has suggested 
anything.

Is the Online/Error light RED or just ON?

If it is RED.
Have you checked:  
Is there is a Paper Jam
Front Cover is open
Paper Tray is empty
The Toner Cartridge is out of Toner

If no RED light but on  blinking
You could have pressed the cancel button while the printer was receiving data.
Is there paper in the Manual Feed Tray?

I'm sure you have tried all the above and disconnected the power cable, 
connected the power cable and restarted the Printer numerous times.

Cheers,
Ronni

 you most likely will experience problems.

 Hi Alex,

 Epson is a good choice for a printer. When it comes to colour  
 photographic reproduction, I rank their top-of-the-line printers as  
 the best there is. To answer your queries. Firstly no worries about  
 when to stop printing on a cartridge. The printer will get to a  
 certain point and then refuse to continue printing using the spent  
 cartridge. There is at that point sufficient ink in the cartridge  
 to ensure there is no damage to the print head.

 For the second query my opinion is a decisive no. What makes Epson  
 superior is the research they have put into their colour ink. As a  
 market leader there is really a vast difference between what Epson  
 supplies and the coloured water of the knock-offs. There is a vast  
 amount of literature on the progression of ink technology and it is  
 really impressive stuff. The colourfast nature and resistance to  
 fading of high quality inkjet printers has no surpassed most other  
 technologies. The other factor to consider is that the official ink  
 has just the right consistency and correct proportions of particles  
 so as not to block the printhead. If because of using compatible  
 inks you have to replace the printhead just once in the life of the  
 printer, you have probably lost all the savings that would have  
 accrued from the ink. Also, every photo you have printed to that  
 point is printed in inferior ink that has lesser colour definition  
 and that will fade more quickly.

 Enough ranting, but that is my two bits worth. :-)

 Carlo

Laser colour printer

[John Daniels]

Hi Wamuggers

Has anyone a recommendation for a laser colour printer that doesn't break the 
bank?  I find my two Epson ink jet printers constantly  need head cleaning 
probably because I don't use them regularly enough.

Cheers

John

Fwd: I need a Printer answer

[Peter Faulks]

My Canon ip4300 printer has crashed with the flashing lights of doom!
meaning the print head is US, so I need to purchase a new printer
that can replace this - I need to print CD's so if anyone has a
suggestion of what is good for Macs preferably wireless I would
appreciate a reply.


Took printer into Can-Calc in Vic Park (443 Albany Highway) cost to 
repair $340.00  (no way)

Report:-   With cheap ink replacements,  the inks dry out and 
subsequently when you do not use the printer very often the ink that 
has dried out gets sucked into the print head and causes this to 
overheat and eventually burns out  the print head. Mine has actually 
caused the mother board to become damaged and this now also needs 
replacing. (Apparently original ink cartridges do not dry out)

It was cheaper to purchase a new printer   = So I worked out the 
following costs-

Cost of Inkjet Printer  (Canon IP4950 from Canon Calc $129) - 
probably cheaper if I shop around.
Cost of colour laser Printer  (Brother HL3040CN from Harvey Norman 
special $148)

Printing 100 pages per week cost per cartridge
Inkjet 5200 pages per year at 225 pages per cartridge means I need 
23.1 cartridges per year at say $30 per cartridge  at total cost per 
cartridge of $693.33 per year per cartridge.

Printing 100 pages per week cost per cartridge
Laser 5200 pages per year at 900 pages per cartridge means I need 
5.78 cartridges per year at say $99 per cartridge  at  a total cost 
per cartridge of $572.00 per year per cartridge.

Of course some laser printers can cost much more but shopping around 
the Brother colour laser seems a good buy, although it was not 
wireless (Wireless Brother HL3075CW was $386.00)

Finally if I need four (4) cartridges and I am requiring 23.1 per 
year or almost one per month at $30 then I am paying $120 per month 
for 4 cartridges alone!  It seems to me I might just purchase 12 new 
Canon IP4950 printers at $129 each (possibly cheaper by the dozen!) 
and throw away each printer when it runs out of ink!

Of course my calculations are fairly basic but it seems the cheap 
ink-jets can actually be expensive options.

My brain hurts

Re: I need a Printer answer

[Daniel Kerr]

Hi Peter
Just driving at the moment so can't  write a lot, but have a look at the new 
Epson workforce range.
They are inkjet printers that boast  quality and cost is very similar to laser 
printer. 
Pretty sure they are called the workforce range but will clarify more later 
tonight with a larger email.

Worth a look at and the Epson range are great printers. I use and sell them all 
the time myself and for clients.

Kind regards
Daniel

 special $148)
 
 Printing 100 pages per week cost per cartridge
 Inkjet 5200 pages per year at 225 pages per cartridge means I need 
 23.1 cartridges per year at say $30 per cartridge  at total cost per 
 cartridge of $693.33 per year per cartridge.
 
 Printing 100 pages per week cost per cartridge
 Laser 5200 pages per year at 900 pages per cartridge means I need 
 5.78 cartridges per year at say $99 per cartridge  at  a total cost 
 per cartridge of $572.00 per year per cartridge.
 
 Of course some laser printers can cost much more but shopping around 
 the Brother colour laser seems a good buy, although it was not 
 wireless (Wireless Brother HL3075CW was $386.00)
 
 Finally if I need four (4) cartridges and I am requiring 23.1 per 
 year or almost one per month at $30 then I am paying $120 per month 
 for 4 cartridges alone!  It seems to me I might just purchase 12 new 
 Canon IP4950 printers at $129 each (possibly cheaper by the dozen!) 
 and throw away each printer when it runs out of ink!
 
 Of course my calculations are fairly basic but it seems the cheap 
 ink-jets can actually be expensive options.
 
 My brain hurts

 Hi Peter  John,
 
 Everytime this question is asked on WAMUG the response seems to be fairly 
 consistent that Epson are the most recommended.
 Epson I have found are the most compatible with Macs. They seem to update 
 their drivers quicker to support new Operating Systems than others.
 
 I currently have an Epson TX810FW purchased in May 2010 and it has worked 
 faultlessly in Snow Leopard and Lion.
 I have always used Epson Printers and I recommend Epson Printers because my 
 personal experience has been very good.
 
 My Epson TX810FW  is Wireless Network, no cables anywhere (other than a power 
 cord).

Re: I need a Printer

[Severin Crisp]

I echo Ronni's comments re Epson.  I have an SP1290Silver and an SP R2880 which 
both perform faultlessly and are always updated with drivers by Epson.   These 
are both higher end artwork printers and I use a Fuji-Xerox C525A laser for 
secretarial type stuff.
