Thanks so much Keith! Interestingly, I watched this video before I bought this printer and my partner installed it. I warned him of AirPrint, but he said he didn't see anything about it. Then when I went to print something, I noticed that I didn't have very many options at all, no options for colour or anything. I checked the preferences, and sure enough, there it was....AirPrint! We followed your instructions and now it's gone! I was so excited to see all the print options I was expecting to be there now! Your channel has been very helpful in all of my printer related questions. Thanks!

I had a mare of a time with this when I installed a Canon pro 300. The drivers wouldn't install after multiple attempts and many calls to Canon couldn't solve the issue. Eventually it was discovered my mac OS version was corrupt and had to remove and install a new version. The printer driver installed first time. Thought I'd mention this as other people may have the same problem. Excellent article as always though sir.

Keith! You saved my day again! I've just bought a second Epson 8550 (I'm printing a lot of art) and I found your suggestion to download Epson Print Layout really helpful. I have the latest Sonoma 14.6 and you know Mac's system settings interface has changed so things differ slightly from your video. Both Epson 8550 were automatically set up with Airprint which I could only see once I clicked on to the printer in system settings. To uninstall I needed to delete the printer and then simply re-install it (it would not show me if I was selecting Airprint under "use" as you showed in this video. Ultimately though just deleting and re-installing the printer took it off Airprint. Then when I opened up Epson Print Layout it recognized my printer immediately. I like using Epson Print Layout for borderless printing. Thank you for all your videos!

Thank you for this video, it this helped me so much today. I didn't understand why I couldn't get my driver version to read more than 3.0 - AirPrint was the problem. Even when I selected EPSON ET-8550 Series under Kind it would default to AirPrint after the printer was added. I had to go in the dropdown menu and select EPSON ET-8550 series (there were two) for it to connect properly. One didn't allow the printer to be recognized by the installer software and the other worked properly. Had I not found your video, I would still be in here screaming at the printer ready to push it on the floor. Thanks again!

Whatever I did, nothing helped and all it showed was that the paper tray is empty!! Which wasn't. So then I deinstalled it and followed your steps - and voila!!! It's working again and also I want to mention, I have a feeling, that it prints faster now?! I will observe this a bit longer... THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH FOR YOUR AMAZING VIDEOS!!!

Hi Keith, As usual another great piece to camera. I recently purchased a Canon pixma pro 200 printer and on installing the drivers I ended up with both the awful ApplePrint and the official Canon drivers, which I then had to update! As for the Epson 2850 printer you are currently testing, all I can say is good luck, you’ll need it! I must say it great to see you in action as you are one of the VERY few real experts on this channel who really know what the hell they are talking about! Keep up the good work.😊🎉

By the way, Epson Print Layout gives me far better results using the EPL plugin for Lightroom (Export > EPL) than directly printing from Lightroom, at least for Permajet paper. Do you have any idea why ? Kudo.

Hi Keith, Thank you so much! I finally installed the Epson printer driver correctly on my MacBook Pro w/ Big Sur 11.7.10. I can get to color options, manual settings, and the advanced color adjustments. However, when I move the advanced color adjustments, I can see how it changes my photo. The tiny preview to the side is some standard photo that changes, not the one I'm printing. So, I'm making adjustments and merely gambling on what may be the result. It wastes so much time, ink and paper. Can you help me or direct me to a helpful video? THANK YOU SO MUCH!

I hope that make sense! Thank you!

I have an old Canon Pro 100 that I seldom get good color matching when compared to my monitor. If I have done all of my other color management steps correctly could the Air Print likely be giving me the problem? I realize the, other color management steps, mentioned is very involved, and I have watched most of your videos and written articles on the subject. Thanks

Thanks fort this info, I seem to have a different issue. I have three mack book pro all 2013, two are running 10.xx OS and one, a late 2013, is now running on 11.xx BigSur and since tu update is refusing to print or scan via Wifi however it does via Ethernet cable. I'm pretty sure that it was ok before the new MacOs was installed and I never had any issues with the other two in all those years with my two Epson 412 and 432 series.I have tried avoiding AirPrint and using one of the other two available from Epsom (9pin and 24pin) but no joy on wifi so I have to move the Mac to my other desk where the thunderbolt ethernet cable is every time I need to print. 🤔

I'm encountering a similar issue, albeit on a Windows PC using the same printer model. The Epson Print Layout software fails to recognise the printer, whether connected via Wi-Fi or USB. Curiously, every other application recognises the printer without issue, making this particularly vexing. Despite repeatedly uninstalling and reinstalling both the printer drivers and the Epson Print Layout software-ensuring to install the driver prior to the Epson Print Layout-my efforts have been to no avail. I've exhaustively searched for a solution online, yet none of the proposed fixes seem to rectify the problem. Would anyone have any recommendations?

Firstly if I want to disable the printer colour management from photoshop and assign a ICC profile I can’t. I use Baryta Prestige paper and I want to use the right profile. If I want to add from Media configuration a custom paper profile I can create one but it doesn’t add it to the printer. More over, if I only open the utility of the Printer there are only two tabs I can choose from, the rest of the features like Maintenance, colour, supply, etc are missing. I can only print using the Professional printing layout which is annoying because I can’t assign my Baryta paper ICC…I hope you have some more info… Thanks Elio

Thank you!!! This is so helpful! Sorry for sounding so dumb I just recieved a replacement printer- the other one had issues. They are exactly the same model and make, although this one of course is a few years newer (2021 vs 2024). Would it be best to remove the printer, and uninstall all the drives for the printer and then when i plug the new one in, Re-install them as a ‘clean’/fresh install to set up the new printer (or it will do it automatically like last time)? Or should I just leave the drives … worried if I leave them it may cause issues but worried if I delete/ uninstall the drives it wont be possible to download it to my Mac again. I hope that make sense! Thank you! I have a macbook pro 15" 2015 ( Monterey - can’t go higher) and the printer is an epson workforce printer I would hate to uninstall it and have issues re-installing but thought it may be best to install the new one as if I never had one before.... what would you do?

Seems I'm stuck with it as all the advice is to make sure you're selecting the proper driver, not AirPlay.
