Morning All,
Not sure if this will solve issue, but I have noticed some strange behaviour
with print queues recently.
This happens when a job for some unknown reason does not print or sits in Que.
Waiting, why??? (printer off, connection not available, out of ink/toner??)
First point of call
Hi Rosalyn,
I don't know if it will help, but you can check various aspects of the
printer/print queue by using your browser to look at the CUPS area (behind
the scenes in the Mac OS) - easier to do than to explain!
On my computer, the following URLs are relevant (for your computer you would

Thanx heaps,
Rosalyn

Hey Rob, thanks for that tip. Our Epson 510 was out of yellow ink and
we knew others were running low but the ink status monitor showed as
being disabled. I switched the printer off, unplugged the usb,
switched it on and replugged the cable, and voila ink levels show

printer is not in a error state.
Glad I could help.

Have you tried simply turning the printer off, unplug the USB cable, turn the
printer back on and plug the cable back in?
Then start the print queue.

Delete the jobs that are already in the Queue.
Unplug the USB cable and then plug it back in.
Check that the paper size of your document is set correctly to

Also if none of the below work try deleting the printer from System Preferences
- Print and Fax. Then add it back again.
If that doesn't work delete the printer again (from same place in System
Preferences) restart and do a PRAM Zap (Command-Option-P-R on restart, google

Hello Rosalyn
Something similar happened to me last week. My Epson 1270 kept stopping half
way through a printed page. I tried all the same things you have, including
permissions etc. etc., but to no avail.
I went to the epson site and re-installed the recommended software. I then did

Will try
