Tiger printing bug fix: my Epson 1270 wouldn't print - the printer utility opens and everything (including logging) appeared normal, but the printer didn't so much as blink or buzz much less print. The fix finally came from an Apple knowledgebase article "Mac OS X 10.4: About the Reset Printing System feature." Says it's a last resort... and you do have to reselect printers afterwards... but now we can print... Comments 11:03:37 PM

More Tiger bugs: printing is broken (Epson 1270) and Excel quit on my wife, losing her data.

Let's hope 14.1 is in the works and available soon... Comments 5:14:34 PM
