Re: speaking of printers...
Chris . . . if you are using the new Snow Leopard OS, I've been
hearing of probs scanning and making profiles. A goofy profile will
make things more
strange than you may imagine. Though I'm out the door to teach you
might think of checking out the Luminous Landscape site for there a
bit of info
on there re the Snow Leopard (OS 10.6). Check the forums.

hi chirs,
i don't know much about highend printer, nor about macs, but most
electronic devices come with a "reset to default" or some kind of
"hard reset" option. often that helps a lot.
but definitely make sure that there is no data or profiles stored in
the printer's memory that could get lost.

Wow,
I had said to the list I was going all Mac. Well, my 2400 printer
now doesn't work very well at all. Only some of the heads are
firing it seems. I know it is not the printer, because it works
normally on other computers, and it works fine if I use Ultra photo
mode in Photoshop. I uninstalled the old driver and installed the
downloaded new driver from the Epson site. Anyone have any advice
on this or experience with similar inadequate printing? It wasn't
only the firing of the sprayer thingies (technical term) that was
the issue. I had to realign the heads as well. Many times. So
caveat--if you are switching to the new Mac operating system be
prepared for a lot of time spent with the peripheral drivers...
I also noticed that CS4 is a bit buggy with my 4990 scanner, too.
Didn't realize making the permanent switch to Mac would take so
much time and dinkin' around. It has literally taken a week or more.
