Have you talked with Adobe support about your inability to print with PS? Lots and lots of folks print using PS...it's far too expensive a program to simply give up on one of its main features.

Well its not so much adobe fault its apple for upgrading the software, I have read and followed all instructions to repair I'm hoping on the next update to correct the problem.

It may be worth downloading and installing the latest Epson drivers, if you haven't already.

IF your problem happened after upgrading Apple Software (which software???), have you thought about uploading/installing a previous version of "this" software and see if it then works?

Thanks all I finally corrected the problem I had to do a complete removable of photoshop and reinstall and only then it would allow me to print, Thanks for all helpful comments.

William,

I print with a mac on a R1800 and have no problems.... now. At first, I couldn't get it to print. It took awhile to discover my error. When the printer software was first loaded, it is set to default to print via USB. If you are printing via Firewire (FW), the computer can't see the printer. If this is applicable to your situation, the printer listing in your preferences should say R1900(FW) instead of just R1900. Hope this helps.
