You know, this would almost be funny if it weren't funny at all. Tiger Install disk has the EPSON Stylus Color 1160 - Gimp-Print 5.0.0-beta2 drivers on it. * Electronics For Imaging Printer Drivers "Here's a list of all the custom installation Printer options available with Optional Installs.mpkg:
Since it's a Dual Boot, can you use the OS9 drivers? Please let me know any thoughts and recommendations. Yes, I have downloaded, but not yet installed the most recent GIMP drivers ("GutenPrint") from sourceforge, but have to admit I don't have the confidence to apply them. First of all, I can't find any ColorSync facility built into the GIMP interface in Tiger and, secondly, the print image size in the GIMP drivers seems to be seriously bolloxed (as my 13" x 19" test printout printed at 8-1/2" x 11" EXCEPT for a 3/8" band in the middle that was actually 13" x 19"). No offense to Apple or SourceForge (who make these drivers), but this solution is laughable.
which I have optimized for certain ICC Color Profiles in ColorSync.Įpson tells me they're no longer supporting the software for the 1160 and they refuse to help, other than to refer me to use the GIMP Print drivers that shipped with OS X 10.4.11. It means that, because I'm running a PowerPC machine, I can no longer print my valuable archives of large scale high resolution Southwest photos. Upon reactivating my trusty Epson Stylus Color 1160 printer this week (and a long while since upgrading from Panther), I discovered that the Epson printer drivers no longer work, nor does the Epson Print Utility (which is supposed to be used for alignment, head cleaning and nozzle test). You may know of this problem, but I just became aware of it. Thought I'd enlist the help of the "heavy hitters" of this forum.
