I bought an Epson 925 a while ago and haven't been able to use any of the features I bought the darn thing for. After installing the new driver (10684) I now have a very expensive CF card reader. Every time I try to select the 925, the application I'm trying to print from quits (every application)

Hope someone has had better luck than I

I don't have the 925, but have been using Epsons for a while. I've had the "printer app closing" issue every now and then. Sometimes, I need to reboot, quit and try again, or unplug/replug the USB or turn on/off the printer for the printer connection to work again.

Are you using 10.2.5 or an earlier OS X version? Have you checked versiontracker for any 925-specific drivers or shareware fixes? Did you make sure to have the printer added via the Printer Utility? Hope you find a fix soon!

I've tried 10.2.4 and 10.2.5. The drivers are brand new (a few days) Supposedly to get borderless printing and roll paper support you need to add 6 subsets of the driver which I have done. I've tried the Print Center Repair utility and have gotten a note back from Epson telling me to unplug my Asante 7 port USB hub. Still doesn't work!

Any help appreciated

I did finally manage to get some printing done by opening the Print Center and setting the default printer before trying to print. If I try to switch while printing via the print dialog box (which comes up before printing starts) every app quits every time...
