Title: Vista Repeatedly printing to Epson Printer
Post by: swwhitford on October 11, 2009, 07:44:23 PM
I have a DPR-1260 connected to an Epson R380 printer, and when I print something, it prints over and over again.  It's still in the print cue after printing the first copy, and when I hit cancel or remove paper, it does says there was a problem printing.  Any ideas?

The computer that is having the problem printing is running Vista 32-bit (a WinXP machine is also on the network and prints perfectly).  I have a Linksys wireless G router: WRT54GL.  When connected directly to the computer via USB, it works fine.

I've tried disabling the bidirectional option, and enabling/disabling "Raw TCP Port" and "LPR/LPD"  It used to print garbage and offset the page on the additional copies, but after uninstalling/reinstalling the printer that went away.

Any suggestions anyone has are greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I have a similar problem with Epson DX3800.
Disabling the spooler in the advanced properties tab (selecting "directly send to the printer") solved my issue.
(Before this I had to set a static ip and to do a manual installation of the printer )

Worked for me too (http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=11334.0), but all I had to do was change to send directly to printer.
