Printer issues with Sequoia

Had the same issue but just got it to work fine now! Open System Settings - Privacy & Security - Local Network and enable the app 'rastertoescpII'. There are manu other epson Apps listed there you might want to check too.

I got the lead for fixing it and mode info: https://epson.com.jm/faq/SPT_SEQUOIA-NS~faq-0000b89-macos_15?faq_cat=faq-topFaqs

This is an Apple bug, and they have been told about it. It's not any help to you now, but I was told the fix for this would be available in a software update "soon".

I have a similar issue. My Canon printer prints one page and then stops. Repeatedly pausing and restarting the printer sometimes works. Previous OS worked perfectly.

Since updating to Sequoia, from my MacBook Air I get a Communication Error with my printer Epson ET-1810. The printer shows online in the wifi network though, and I can print from my phone. It's just on the Mac that the problem exists. Deleted & reinstalled all Epson software, rebooted etc. Drivers are up to date. Sometimes it will suddenly print a page after a very long wait, but when trying again it keeps forever "looking for printer" and giving "communication error". When I pause the print job it shows the printer as online, idle. Start the job again and the error comes immediately back.

Removing and re-adding the printer does not change anything.

Anyone had the same and suceeded in solving it?

Ckeck Sysyem Settings>Privacy & Security>Local Network. See if you printer in there and enable

I am using a Macbook Pro (2019). After the update my EPSON ET-4750 Series only manages to print one pages. If I print the same document with my iPad, it works fine. I have deleted the printer and added again, but it has not helped. Also the printer has the latest Epson firmware. Anyone with any ideas?

Same issue with "looking for printer" and giving "communication error" on my Mac - seriously impacting my business.

Hey everyone, the solution provided by user "jean-francois228" works! Thank you!

Open System Settings - Privacy & Security - Local Network and enable the app 'rastertoescpII'.

Yes. Still not working after the Sequoia update. Unbelievable

Wow, you just saved me from a near breakdown! I was getting so frustrated but thanks to your post, I was able to get my printers back to a workable status:)

I did a clean install of 15.0 and now I cannot add my Epson SureColor SC-P900 anymore. I do see the printer via Bonjour but it cannot be added to due communication problems. Latest Epson driver is installed.

I have been having the same issue of not seeing printers when using print dialogs for my specific printer. I updated my print drivers, deleted and reinstalled printer, quit applications and restarted my Mac to no avail. When I AM able see my printer (as in the screenshot at the top of the thread) to customize print settings for my specific printer, my applications (Adobe products - Illustrator, Acrobat etc. crash when I hit print. Or it will go to the printer and sit in the queue spooling but never print. Same issue from Outlook email, crash on hitting print.

Hope Apple fixes this soon.

I've tried practically everything - reinstalling drivers, resetting the print service, and nothing worked. In my opinion, this is a bug in this version of Sequoia. But if anyone has found a solution, it would be great to share, because I can't use my printer!

Hi. I am using EPSON ECOTANK ET-16500, ET-3850 and ET-2400. They all had this problem until I made the changes in Local Network settings. I am not sure for your specific printer model. I actually have 5 APP enabled in Local Network: epsonfax, EPIJAutoSetupTool2, commandtoescp, rastertoescpll & Epson Connect Printer Setup.

I am afraid I can't do more...

Good luck

Thank you for your answer and commitment.

I have services with granted access such as: Epson Software Updater, Epson Software Updater Agent, EPIJAutoSetupTool2. I don't have any Epson services in Privacy & Security > Local Network that I could grant access to (situation after upgrading do Sequoia). So in my case the communication error must be caused by something else - related to the Sequoia os version.
