Epson C84 Reassumes Default Printer Status Without Asking
We bought an Epson C84 recently and really like the printer. However,
when we hooked it up to a print server, we noticed some odd behavior. The Epson would make itself the default printer every time you would use it. If you make another printer the default printer, and then check the properties of the Epson, it would again become the default printer. Sometimes, it just will become the default printer on the fly while you are working. I have seen at least three other posts that deal with this. I wonder if this is a problem that has been fixed. I have emailed Epson regarding this, but they are a bit slow to respond so far. Any help would be appreciated. Joe |

Epson C84 Reassumes Default Printer Status Without Asking
Here was the solution that Epson finally provided after several
phonecalls. Uninstall the printer from all your workstations. Then install the printer from the software CD. Stop when it tries to auto detect the connection type. Take out any auto start apps from the printer referenced in the MSCONFIG startup tab. Will say Epson or E_xxx. Then turn off the status monitor in the printer preferences. Finally add a local port that maps to where the printer is located on your network, i.e.. \\servername\printerportname. This has worked for us. |
