| | Printers and Vista I have an Epson stylus photo R200 printer. It prints phots and CDs. The photo function works fine with Vista, but when I try to print a CD, the image is WAY off-center. Are there any Vista patches or downloads that will correct this problem? Thank you. |

| | Re: Printers and Vista What's a calibration tool? If you mean adjusting the image, yes, you can adjust the image, but the printing is SO far off, it doesn't really help. I guess I'm looking for someone to tell me if there is a Vista download that will make this printer compatible with Vista.

| | Re: Printers and Vista It was software that came with the printer. It prints directly onto the CD...not labels. It might be called Epson print CD.

| | Re: Printers and Vista I understand that the label is printed directly on the medium. Have you checked the printer manufacturer for updates for your software and updates for the driver?

| | Re: Printers and Vista I was hoping someone had this same printer with the same problem with Vista and had found a solution. I looked at the Windows list of Vista-compatible Epson printers...and I swear, every letter and number combination is compatible, except the R200. Thanks, Colin and Mike for writing. If you think of anything else, please post.
