Hi. I use Macbook pro 2016 and Epson L8180.

I printed very well until 3day ago. But yesterday, i can`t.

 

This is my situation.

1. When print, printer output empty paper no coloring.

2. After click 'print setting', no response.

 

So I do something.

1. reinstall photoshop, printer drive and Mac OS(big Sur).

 

However, situation is same. T.T

 

Help me...

Appparently there's a bug in Big Sur 11.6.2 that interferes with ICC profiles when printing from Photoshop.

Can you print at all, say from other applications? 

 

Did you reset the printer?

On your Mac, choose Apple menu System Preferences, then click Printers & Scanners

Press and hold the Control key as you click in the list at the left, then choose “Reset printing system” from the menu that appears.

After you reset the printing system, the list of printers in Printers & Scanners preferences is empty.

Reinstall the print driver, only from the manufacturer, not Apple.

 

 

Here is some general Adobe [Mac and Win] info on printing problems,

Simple reset: hold the space bar when you open the print window. It resets the print dialogs

 

if that doesn’t help -

Perhaps try resetting Photoshop preferences?

Resetting restores Photoshop's internal preferences, which are saved when Photoshop closes. If they become corrupt then various issues can occur.

 

Here’s some info on how to do that:

You may want to backup your settings and your custom presets, brushes & actions before restoring Photoshop's preferences.

Perhaps you might try installing an earlier version of Photoshop. You are allowed to do this. I never remove my older versions for the reason a newer version might encounter problems.

 

This guide will show you how:

If you click file print, does your Epaon printer allow you to choose preferences? Did you check if there is a new print driver?

Can you print from other applications like Preview?

Press the Spacebar on your keyboard before you click File > Print. This process resets printer preferences that have been written into the image.

 

If that does not work, go over these steps:
