I therefore downloaded the latest driver from Epson but I still can't choose the paper being used. I use an iMac G5 PPC with an Epson Stylus Photo R360 printer. Anyone experienced a similar problem? 2007-12-21T16:41:33+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/62#265 Roy Rainford info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Now (almost) back to normal, thanks to Epson tech support. Can select Plain Paper in Photoshop Elements & in Pages (iWork'08) but not in Appleworks. Perhaps this is not supported in Leopard by Epson? I have put this to Epson. 2007-12-21T18:01:03+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/62#266 Douglas Cheney info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Another reason not to update to Leopard yet 2007-12-21T23:04:29+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/62#267 Mick Burrell info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ In defence of Leopard, I've had no such problems with an ethernet Minolta laser or a Canon Multifunction, Canon Printer or HP printer all attached to different computers by USB 2007-12-24T14:47:22+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/62#274 Roy Rainford info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Epson have sent me two emails but neither solve the problem of being unable to select plain paper for text documents in Appleworks v.6.2.9. It's strange when I can do this for documents in other software. Anyone using Appleworks with Leopard? 2007-12-24T17:21:40+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/62#275 Mick Burrell info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ What paper is selected Roy? Does it default to glossy photo or something? 2007-12-26T10:32:32+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/62#279 Roy Rainford info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Mick it defaults to 'Epson Ultra Glossy' & 'Color' in Automatic mode. In the list of media options I can select the default of course plus Epson Premium Glossy, Premium Semigloss, Glossy, & Photo Quality Inkjet. The other options are 'greyed out', including Plain Papers & Envelope, which are the choices I normally use in Appleworks. I can't see anything in Preferences to change. 2007-12-26T14:43:37+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/62#280 Mick Burrell info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ If they're there but greyed out it would suggest (to me anyway!) that for some reason, the driver thinks the printer is a photo printer rather than general purpose so expects to only print on photo style papers. 2007-12-26T17:01:09+00:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/62#281 Roy Rainford info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Have just received another email from Epson (yes on Boxing Day!) which solved the problem. They said: "ensure that borderless is not selected in the page setup options." It was but now isn't & it works!! What a relief. This agrees with your last comment Mick. The new driver's default settings must have been for photo printing. Many thanks for your comments.
