Problem press 17 x 22 with Epson 3880 from CS6

When I try to impress a borderless 17 x 22 on my new Epson 3880 with Photoshop CS6 it centers the epitome in the eye of the paper and prints it at 8.5 10 eleven. I am using a Mac Pro with Bone 10.7.

I have triple checked all of the settings in the impress dialogs, reinstalled the driver, reinstalled CS6 and spent over an hour with Epson tech support and no solution then far.

I am able to print 17 10 22 using Aperture and then it looks like a Photoshop problem.

Has anyone else encountered anything like this?

Same setup, but Win vii/64 and Win Vista/32 and have no problem with 17 x 22 inches. It could be an Epson Mac driver with CS6 problem.

I conspicuously can't run Aperture, only have no problem with Lightroom and 17 x 22 inches either.

Are you sure there isn't something yous are missing in Photoshop?

The Epson driver is prone to doing a 'whatever-size > eight.5 x 11 inch' conversion when setting borderless for a size for which information technology doesn't support borderless press; even after you then switch to a size that information technology does support printing borderless. (And it is actually hard to become it dorsum to the right sheet size.) Just that should show in the printer driver's dialog.

Under Windows, when you attempt borderless for an unsupported size, you become a modal dialog that says something like 'the printer doesn't support borderless printing for this sized sheet' and y'all are given no choice only OK, which then puts something like 'Ten x y > 8.5 x xi' inches in the newspaper size box.

The Epson driver is prone to doing a 'any-size > eight.5 10 xi inch' conversion when setting borderless for a size for which information technology doesn't back up borderless printing; even subsequently you lot then switch to a size that information technology does back up press borderless. (And information technology is really difficult to get it back to the correct canvass size.) Only that should show in the printer driver's dialog.

Under Windows, when you try borderless for an unsupported size, you get a modal dialog that says something like 'the printer doesn't back up borderless printing for this sized canvas' and you are given no selection merely OK, which then puts something similar 'X x y > 8.5 10 eleven' inches in the newspaper size box.

Thanks for the answer, Brian.

I take gone through the settings in CS6 so many times that I thought I might be missing something but two calls to Epson support where they walked me through the setup seem to confirm that all of the settings are correct. They were stumped and said they had never encountered the trouble before.

It does seem like information technology is reverting to the default eight.5 x xi just the driver does support border less 17 x 22 as it prints fine from Aperture. The image that information technology does print is fractional.

I can just utilize Discontinuity to impress but I no longer use it in my normal workflow and so information technology adds a step.

Thanks PicOne. Image size is 17x22 and preview shows a border less 17 x 22. It is frustrating.

CS6 and the Epson driver are not getting along for some reason. I was hoping that someone else had run into the aforementioned problem.

The problem I described happens when y'all prepare the checkbox to borderless first, so select a paper is that is supported for borderless printing. But if merely office of the paradigm is beingness printed, the problem sounds similar it lies elsewhere.

Today I brought my laptop to my office and printed from that with no trouble so there is something wrong with my Mac Pro. There must be a corrupt file.

Since I have already reinstalled Photoshop I guess the side by side stride would exist to reinstall the organisation unless information technology is a Photoshop file that did not become replaced during the reinstall.

Thanks for trying to aid.

Have you had whatsoever luck with this? Nosotros are experiencing essentially the same trouble with some images, but printing to a Epson 4880. The only difference with ours is that the fractional image being printed at eight.5x11 comes from the center of the larger image, and is existence printed in the bottom left corner of the page (not centered in other words).

We accept been able to sort of work around the problem by belongings "spacebar" when selecting Print from the File carte du jour. This brings up the print dialog using "default" print settings, forgetting the previous settings. In one case the dialog has opened we click "Done" and then save the file. This saves the file with the default print settings (print settings are saved in the file). Reopen the file and customize the print settings for output and and then print. This seems to give a proper print. Later press we do not save the file.

So far, so skillful with this method. One caveat, opening the Print dialog while property spacebar (to get the default impress settings) will revert our 300 ppi images to 72 ppi, expanding the resolution to whatever makes it proportionate. Nosotros tin then change the image size settings dorsum to whatever 10 whatever @ 300 ppi with no bug. What this tells me is that the Photoshop print dialog has its fingers in things other than just print settings.

Any thoughts?

By the mode, printing the same images from Preview.app works just fine.  So this points to some upshot betwixt Photoshop and the printer commuter, at least in my opinion.

accept y'all gone into the printer preference and *remove* the 3880 and so re-'instantiate' it

Since the original mail service I have upgraded to a new computer and operating arrangement, and Photoshop has had lots of updates. I am now using CC. I still have the problem and no longer apply Photoshop for printing. I gave upward after reinstalling everything and spending a lot of time with tech back up.

I still accept the 3880 and a large format Canon printer so from time to time I find myself looking at RIP software but can't really justify the cost.

Although I don't utilize Aperture any more for storing or processing photos, I employ it for printing with no problems. While it does add an additional step to my workflow and is kind of irritating, information technology's non that hard.

If anyone finds a cure, there are at least a few of the states who would be grateful.

Thanks for the replies.

By the way, printing the same images from Preview.app works but fine. Then this points to some issue between Photoshop and the printer driver, at least in my stance.

Re: Problem printing 17 x 22 with Epson 3880 from CS6

there is no such 'Output Newspaper' pulldown on the Mac Page Setup page.  The only affair y'all do is specify the paper size, orientation and scale factor.

Re: Problem printing 17 10 22 with Epson 3880 from CS6

What is the function of that Output Paper pulldown that tin't exist done elsewhere.

And at the danger of going off-topic, there are many more reasons I'd rather slit my wrists than have to use a PC in my personal life.

I don't know if it's related, considering I'm on PC and press to HP, only I have had trouble making large prints from photoshop when the paper orientation didn't match the orientation of the print. I rotated the canvas and then it printed correctly.

So at that place seems to be some flaw in the automobile rotate function of PS.
