    UPD Pixelmator works fine, but in photoshop same issue UPD 2 PS 2022 rosetta buggy PS 2024 native fine But i need to use 2022 for printing I only have Photoshop Elements (Rosetta). I could not produce your problem. Certainly, there could be a difference betwee Elements and the full versions of PS. I did try to use language other than English to see if that had any bearing, but my copy of Photoshop Elements doe not support other languages. The only thing I can suggest is to try to use an earlier version...

    I am glad you were able to get things working. What caused the problem? In the v5.3.x Gutennprint drivers, a new feature was added for printers that could print on CD/DVDs. It allowed for direct, custom entries for some parameters of printing on CD/DVDs. This was working fine through about MacOS 10.11.x. Following versions of MacOS X changed somethiing and the Gutenprint custom settings caused tremendous problems. The feature still works in at least in Linux and probably other platforms. The actual...

    Yes, this is a nasty bug. At least it istn' crashing your apps. The fix has been committed to the code repository. I do not know when a macos package will be released. A developer will have to step forward that can sign the code and get things notarized by Apple. I am pretty sure I can solve your immediate problem though. The issue revolves around a feature iin the PPD (printer description file). I am attaching a corrected PPD file for your Epson Stylus Photo 1410. There are several steps you need...

    I think you may need to specify the full path to the image file and the output file-- /Users/username/imagefile.jpeg /Users/username/outfile.cupsraster Matt

    Looking at the log you attached, I think you are running into problems before it gets to Gutenprint. There are several jobs covered in the log. I will only cite from the last job -- Job 51. The log for that job begins on or about line 2443 in the log. Lines 2488 - 2490 show the filters CUPS is going to use -- D [18/May/2023:12:28:34 +0200] [Job 51] 2 filters for job: D [18/May/2023:12:28:34 +0200] [Job 51] imagetoraster (image/jpeg to application/vnd.cups-raster, cost 100) D [18/May/2023:12:28:34...

    I did run accross this while testing the v5.3.4(?) on a Mac. That may have dated back to when I was runnong Mojave 10.14.x. I was building from the tarball and the command line rather than XCode. I had to remove -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L -std=c99 from the 'configure' file. Matt

    I'm glad you were able to get the functionality you need. It is interesting you had some problems with the installation. I didn't run into that as I was testing. In any event, it is possible to have two printer queues for your printer. I have always had two queues for my printers. One using the manufacturer's drivers and one using Gutenprint. The system will warn you that you already have a print queue when you add the second one, but it doesn't prevent having a printer for each driver. The Gutenprint...

    when I try to see my current ink levels, I get a message "information not available." Unfortunately, Gutenprint does not have the capability to get ink levels on macos. That requires two way direct communication with the printer which Gutenprint does not have for macos. Gutenprint does have the capability to run a nozzle check, clean the print heads, and align the print heads. This is done through the "Gutenprint Utility for EPSON Inkjet Printers.command" that is on the disk image along with the...
