Epson 9000 Printer Software For Mac Average ratng: 3,7/5 6609 reviews

Sep 13, 2012  Before the upgrade, I had all Epson drivers up to date (through Software update). Now when I try to print, after 'Looking up printer', this is what I see: I can't check the supplies level either. 😟 I checked the EPSON support & drivers page, but couldn't find an updated driver for my printer. Epson Stylus Pro 9000. Epson Stylus Pro 9400. Epson Stylus Pro 9450. Epson Stylus Pro 9500. If your EPSON printer is not on the list above please contact us to check. The universal large format RIP solutions for the latest 64-bit Windows and Mac OSX platforms. Agree to the Software License Agreement by clicking Continue, and then Agree. Click Install, and then click Close. Select your product, and then click Next. Note: If the window doesn't automatically appear, open a Finder window and select Application Epson Software, and then double-click Epson Connect Printer Setup. Make sure your printer is reproducing colour faithfully. Click on the buttons below to get the correct colour profiles for your Epson printer. When the page opens, all you have to do is select the ‘driver and software’ tab, then simply open the ICC profile archive via the relevant download button.

For Windows

Using the progress meter

When you send a print job to the CX6600, the progress meter appears, as shown in the illustration below.

The progress meter indicates the progress of the current print job and provides printer status information when bidirectional communication between the CX6600 and the computer is established. This meter also displays error messages as well as helpful tips for better printing. Refer to the sections below.

Epson Printing Tips

Tips for getting the most out of your Epson printer software appear in the text box at the bottom of the progress meter window. A new tip appears every 30 seconds. For more details on the tip displayed in the window, click the Details button.

Error messages

If a problem occurs during printing, an error message appears in the text box at the top of the progress meter window.

When the ink runs low or out, a How to button appears below the text box. Click How to, and Epson Status Monitor 3 will lead you step-by-step through the cartridge replacement procedure.

Using Epson Spool Manager

Epson Spool Manager is similar to Windows Print Manager. If it receives two or more print jobs at one time, it holds them in the order that they were received (with printers on a network, this may be called a print queue). When a print job reaches the top of the line, Epson Spool Manager sends the job to the printer. From the spool manager, you can view print status information about the print jobs that have been sent to the CX6600. You can also cancel, pause, and resume selected print jobs.

Note:
Epson Spool Manager is not available with Windows XP and 2000.

After you send a print job, a printer icon appears on the taskbar. Click this icon to open Epson Spool Manager.
