David, Eric:
Thanks for raising and answering the question; I'll keep it on file.
I've got a 7600 as well, and while I'm not having a printing problem
now, it's only becuase I'm sticking to a workflow that I know works.
I'm up to 10.3.3 on my desktop machine, so as to stay in sync with my
new laptop, and I'm growing to like using PS CS for its tools and
larger workspace (I do very wide panoramas), but when I've got
everything ready to do the final color corrections and print, I go back
to OS9. At first it was because I didn't trust the profiling in CS,
but once I got that figure out, I tried to print out of it and ...
well, yes, I was able to print, but either I'm a complete idiot (which
is possible) or the Epson interface in OSX is terrible, I couldn't
figure out how to set it for roll paper or create new sized papers, ...
etc. No question here, just a complaint. And a thanks.

Hi group.
Don't know if this fits in the parameters of the group, but someone
else may have had this happen to them already, and knows the
workaround
or answer.
I am having a heck of a time with Mac OX 10.2.8, and Epson 9600 with
Hello David,
I have a 7600 and 10.28 so we are on the same page I believe. On the
printer itself "Roll Auto Cut"
should be selected even though this doesn't make sense. When you
select Print from Print Preview one
of the selections in the drop down menu is "Roll paper options" , here
is where you must decheck the
"autocut" box. This is a wholly counterintuitive situation but I got
these instructions from Epson when
I ran into difficulties and it works - go figure. I think Epson has
really been dropping the ball with its
software on the Ultrachrome printer drivers, I find it the worst
software they have ever put forth.
Another pain in the butt to look out for is if you are using roll
paper and accidentally have the printer
set for sheet paper the printer will keep spooling out paper forever
unless you hit the panic button.
This can result in very damaged paper and be very costly - inexcusable
bug if you ask me.
