7. Installing & Using Printer Drivers for Mac OS 8.6 to 9.2

Please note: Before starting this part of the set up process, we recommend you turn OFF

all Screen Savers when installing your software and printing to your DTG Kiosk™. This

section of the manual applies to Mac OS 8.6 to 9.2 users only, while the next section

applies to Mac OSX 10.2.8 to 10.3.x users. If you have any problems installing the Printer

Drivers or getting your graphics program to connect with the Printer Drivers, please call

the Support Department at Impression Technology for help.

In your DTG Kiosk package you received the Epson 2100/2200 Printer Driver CDs for both

Windows and Mac applications. You need to install the driver CD for Mac OS 8.6 to 9.2 to

operate the printer. Once it is installed you can print from almost any graphics software

program, such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign, Quark Express, Corel

Draw and Macromedia Freehand. At some time in the future you may need to update your

printer driver and you can do this by logging on to the Epson website:

http://tech.epson.com.au . Follow the links to the Printer Drivers section where you can

download the latest drivers.

Once you have installed the printer driver you can create custom print modes which will allow

you to print bright and strong colours and photorealistic images onto textile items. On the

following pages there are instructions for creating these custom print modes.

7.1 To Install the Printer Drivers for Mac OS 8.6 – 9.2:

1. Insert the CD into your computer and the CD icon will appear on your Desktop.

2. Double click on this CD icon.

3. Then double click on the Mac OS 8.6 to 9.2 operating system and then on the Mac OS

8.6 to 9.2 driver.

4. Follow the on-screen prompts to install the Epson 2100/2200 printer driver on your

computer.

5. Open the Chooser and select the following options:

 SP 2100

• Your USB or FireWire port

• Background printing (on or off)

Close the Chooser.

7.2 Custom Printing Modes

 Print Resolution

You can print at resolutions from 360dpi to 2880dpi with the Epson 2100/2200. 360dpi is a high

speed, acceptable print resolution for most textile printing as long as the Print Heads are in

perfect alignment and that the print nozzles are not blocked. Any problems with alignment or

blocked nozzles will show up as horizontal streaks or banding every few centimetres on the

printed image.

 Print Speed

The Epson 2100/2200 can print in both single directional and bi-directional mode (or high

speed). High Speed mode can have similar problems to printing in 360dpi, such as minor

banding or a slight double image to the fine details in the printed image if the print heads are

not in perfect alignment or the nozzles are blocked.
