Title: Problems during printing Post by: vinprom on December 07, 2023, 09:36:17 PM I have an Epson L8050 printer and when I start printing photos the job in the print queue stops and gives a error printing. It's started doing this quite often lately and I don't know what's causing it (bad drivers or something else).
I saw the following errors in the event viewer: (https://i.postimg.cc/njWtBPP0/Untitled1.png) (https://postimg.cc/njWtBPP0) (https://i.postimg.cc/H8712tGH/Untitled3.png) (https://postimg.cc/H8712tGH) (https://i.postimg.cc/K4Kbxm1V/Untitled4.png) (https://postimg.cc/K4Kbxm1V) Title: Re: Problems during printing Post by: admin on December 07, 2023, 10:09:20 PM Errors where the Windows print server fails to "feed" the printer generally come in just a few categories.
(1) Driver issue: try reinstalling the printer driver. In Qimage, also reset printer settings by holding the Shift key while clicking the Properties button on the Printers and Settings tab: set the driver settings manually from there. (2) Connection problem: I don't recommend WiFi connections so if you are hooked up wirelessly, try a cable. If you are already on a cable, try a different cable. (3) Windows update: Make sure you are up to date on Windows updates since sometimes an update can cause a problem and when that happens, MS usually fixes those pretty quickly. (4) Hardware problem: Sometimes printers can have an internal issue like a broken main board or other problem in the electronics. I put this one last because it's difficult to test for. More experimentation may be needed: for example try other software to see if the problem is only with Qimage or maybe you can't print from anything?

(2) I always use a cable for connection (it is new, but if necessary I will change it to try again) (3) I'm using the latest Windows updates (4) My printer is new (no more than 2 months old with less than 2000 copies) Thanks again, I'll try your suggestions...
