On my dad's iMac DV (500 mhz) the install of 10.2.8 screwed up the printing. Now whenever he wants to print, He'll get a message in the print center that says there was a communication error with his printer (epson stylus 740 USB). But he can still manage clean the ink head, and print out patterns to see that they are right. It is just documents that won't print. Any similar problems? I hope apple fixes this one soon!

Don't blame it on 10.2.8.
Epson printer was really cheap to begin with.

740s work under 10.2.6 so it is 10.2.8's fault. Your comment is not helpful in the least... nor is it humorous, and it doesn't add anything to the post...

I've had the same problem since updating. For some reason, though, if I just stop the job and resume it, it ends up printing fine...

You may have already tried this, but delete the printer from Print Center and then add it back.

Hey it actually was 10.2.8 go repair yoru permissions this fixed the problem for me. I got the imac 600 with epson740 and printer sharing and everything on the iMac was hosed. After repairing permissions problems were all solved. People need to learn to do this after updates and I for one was careless for not bothering with it and almost completely hosign my software. Cut the guy some slack it could very well be 10.2.8 it was for me and i had different printing problems. Easily fixed though.
I bet the person that said it wasnt 10.2.8 feels like an idiot. Also why do you jump to conclusions when we havent even diagnosed what other possibilities it could be. what works in one release might not in another. This is why you backup in this caase consider yourself lucky. Repairing permissions fixes all teh oddities at least it did for me.

I went to print today and nothing happened. I went to print center and it told me my printer was stopped. It still had the job in the queue, but i couldn't start it back up. I did a repair permissions and teh job was gone, but I still couldn't start it. I tried to delete it, but the option is grayed out. I can add my printer as a new printer, but I can't delete this configuration.

I too have a printer I can't delete and have been having various printer troubles like what is described above. I can't recall for sure, but it does seem like it started right after I installed 10.2.8.
