Your computer may ask for you to approve this. Next, in the same screen, click on Install. You have just refreshed the printer driver. If you have installed a new printer driver or possibly removed the main Epson driver for your printer you will need to perform this step. Click on the image on the right for a larger view. Check overall communication between T-RIP and your printer. Select your printer. Refer back to suggestion 2.
Are there lights flashing on your printer? Is it low on ink? Refer to suggestion 3. You might have noticed that with all inkjet printers you can often end up with a number of duplicate drivers. This is one of the issues when you turn off a computer and re-start it. If you see multiple versions of the same driver copy 1, copy 2, etc.
One almost fail safe method is to delete all the Epson drivers for your printer — other than the new Epson T-RIP driver. Unplug the USB cable from your printer for a few seconds and then plug it back in the printer should be turned ON.
Windows will install a new fresh driver. The Windows operating system can also have quirks. This is often Epson…..
USB2 or something similar. It is pretty obvious which port is correct. But, for an odd reason and something that is not consistent — Windows will change the port setting to something like Unknown USB port.
This most often happens when you shut everything down at night and in the morning turn things back on. All Black setup instructions for the Epson The T-RIP manual has basic All Black instructions that are somewhat generic black ink in all slots using refillable cartridges or a continuous ink system.
Here are settings that work well for the Epson and other Epson printers. Film size and type mismatches can cause errors. Cable issues can cause errors. Older Epson printers like the and have a dated parallel port output connection. There are a number of third party parallel-to-USB cables on the market but some are not good.
It may take unplugging and plugging back in these cables a number of times to get good communication. And, with some older printers and cables being a little fussy, if you have a USB hub with lots of connections this can cause communication issues. If you are using a USB hub try plugging the printer directly into the computer to see if it fixes errors. Some Epson wider format printers like the and series offer the option to print with either dye or pigment ink.
These custom sizes will often not show up as an option in your applications like Corel Draw or Adobe Illustrator. Select Update Control Panel Now. Close this window. Now all the custom page sizes will show up in your graphics software. A file will sometimes simply not print out as a separation but will print in color as a composite of all channels.
This can happen if you have your application Photoshop, Corel, Illustrator set to print a composite rather than a separation. Certain printers especially older models will put down too much ink.
The first thing to check is that you are using the correct side of the film. The sticky side wet finger test is the printing side. There are a variety of reasons for these errors. Here are things to check:. See if you have a print command hung up in the standard Windows Print Manager.
This can happen when printing to your inkjet printer not using T-RIP and then cancelling a print job. It is like putting a kink in a hose. There is a job hung up and it needs to be cancelled from Windows Print Manager.
A job might be hung up in T-RIP. If you cancel a job or have errors on a job it might get hung up. Try shutting down T-RIP and re-starting it. Rather than waste film troubleshooting printing errors, once you have made changes, try printing a Test Page first. Certain devices and computers like to see things turned on in a specific order. Generally, you should turn the printer ON before you boot your computer. When all else fails there is nothing like starting fresh.
Computers and printers still receive current when they are shut off. Other Dongle or RIP Conflicts If you are printing to other devices that use a dongle, or if you have another RIP installed for other applications, there may be dongle conflicts if using the dongle version. Try removing other dongles, or disabling other RIPs before printing to see if it resolves conflicts.
Go to the Start button and then Control Panel. Click on Programs and Features. This will happen over time and quicker because we are using film transparencies. Film transparencies show head problems much more than paper does.
The ink will bleed slightly on paper and cover up banding. Film is much less forgiving. This causes clear lines to show more quickly. Try the following steps to see if you can get rid of the clear lines.
Head cleaning. Run head cleanings times. Print a Nozzle Check from the Regular Epson driver on film. Look to see if there are any breaks in the black. If there are then run about Head cleanings on the black. If not continue to step 3. Create a small, solid black box in a graphic program. If you still get clear horizontal lines run about more Head cleanings.
If the clear lines improve, try running more Head cleanings. Print the Black box again. See if the clear lines are going away. If they are going away, then try running more Head cleanings. You need to have your printer professionally cleaned by an Authorized Epson Repair Service. They may be able to clean the Nozzle or they might need to replace the Head. When they replace the Head, it replaces the Nozzles on the printer.

Your best solution is to put only ONE sheet of film in the printer at a time. This is especially important if using waterproof film which can stick to itself and have a lot of static. You may have to actually place your hand on the film as it starts to feed to keep it straight in the print path. These printers will also sometimes advance the film through without making a print. The Epson and some newer Epson printers use dye based ink which is great for film.
Most Epson model printers use pigment ink which is better for full color longevity but is not as good on film. Dye based ink works best and you can use the standard Epson dye based ink on film. You can also buy third party dye ink and film from a variety of industry screen printing suppliers and if you print a lot of films you should look at getting a bulk ink system for your printer.
