Epson Stylus 740i Issue

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 05:53 AM

Hi,

My neighbor just gave me a pristine Epson Stylus Color 740i with original booklets and (useless) software CD.

I another I found just like it a while back. It installed perfectly on older system runing W2K....given Epson offers drivers for that OS.

This printer (and its twin) will not install in XP Pro via plug & play---I get error message saying I am missing some file, get the OS CD. THIS Epson is not listed specifically in Add New Printer, though other Epsons R; the software in the CD is entirely useless with XP.

I downloaded the 2K drivers and some new patch for XP from Epson site, & everything installed, I ignored little "not exactly, Jilly" message.

Except for the consumables (cartridges part) monitor which will not work in XP...Epson site even says this..... this amazing printer now works PERFECTLY (along with my other Epson 820 which Epson offers XP drivers 4), BUT....

....each time I boot with it on or boot and turn it on I get Found new Hardware (with printer ID) balloon on W task bar. As if it were not already installed. Which it totally IS, ok?

If I ignore the disgusting balloon, the printer functions perfectly....given, for all intents & purposes, even with not XP drivers it is installed, OK?

I used one of my spare USB cables 2 install; I could also obviously use parallel should I choose, printer allows for both.

Howwwwwwwwww can I stop the GROUND HOG DAY, Found New Hardware thingy FROM HAPPENING as per above every time I turn the printer on???????

I do not get why Epson does not offer drivers for this awesome printer. They DO APPEAR TO for XP, but ONLY RE 64 BIT SYSTEMS!!!! Mine is 32. How important is this....the platform?????

Thanks for any and all help; I luuuuuuuvvvvv this printer and want to keep it as my new default.....and loose the Ground Hog Day part.

Thank U so much,
Jill
Important Addendum: Given my early plug & play error message, I just went to MS and found this:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/293378

This printer is listed on the above page as having drivers in XP. Mine....or the file or path 2 install them.....are nowhere 2 B found. BUT, pls note that at bottom of above printer drivers page, it says, Applies to XP HOME.

I am running Pro on the desktop in question. But why should that be an impediment????

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 06:29 AM

update: i just found this:
http://www.driver-downloads.com/epson/epson.htm

Downloaded both first files re the 740---remember the 740i was made for both the imacs & windows as wwll, I think the 740 was just 4 windows---but since both files above say 2k/XP; will now delete the printer and try to reinstall using these; will report back.

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 07:01 AM

I have good new & bad news: the good news=the monitor file on the above page works including the consumable part. Fabulous.

The Bad news is, same issues with drivers per se; balloons appearing as if printer were not installed, something disgusting happened during installation, your puppy might be sick... like that. And as per the first 4 installations, it works perfectly.
BUT NOT ACCORDING TO WINDOWS, ok?

The error message I get re the drivers in XP Involve a missing preinstall/386 file. I did capture and will attach...pls ignore stuff not relevant in screenie.

Wish to hell I had full, not OEM copy of XP Pro, boy....and hope MS falls into the sea.

O! Wonder how Mr. Putin feels about them!

Otherwise, I am just delightful & filled with luv & tolerance at this moment.

Thank U,
Jill

You're doing a great job of troubleshooting this problem but I don't see anywhere in your posts where you've inserted your XP CD? In your screenshot there is a requester asking for the location of the "EPNHTE3N.DLL" file which it can't find. Browse to the "i386" directory on your CD and let it do it's stuff. The file is packed in the "driver.cab" archive on the disk.

BTW: The only difference between the OEM version and the "FULL" version of XP is the original licence agreement. It can only be sold with hardware but it leaves the use of it up to the consumer. Once you own it then it is no different to the full version (other than the full version costing a whole heap more).

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 07:24 AM

Thanks, freddy,

I kinda did all that, but lovely link and now I will uninstall everythng again and try the Cd again.

My take is my missing preinstall file is an issue....but I totally hope I am wrong.

Will report back....thanks again.

J.

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 07:28 AM

kevvvvv....sorry I did not make it clear abv e, tried 2....that I HAVE NO FULL VERSION OF XP PRO, only oem version via Dell restore disks. After which I fantasized about if Mr. Putin had any that interesting POWER LEFT......SAID I wish I had full verson of Pro.....but I do not.

I must not get this: I thought my OEM restore disk version only permits reinsallaton of the OS......after wiping your entire drive, but full version allows repair options to actual OS. Is this wrong?
*****************************
One more thing: I have been using Epson Stylus color Photo 820 for a year with this system.....so i now have 2 Epsons hooked up. If I use Add/remove how will know which Epson software I will be removing?

I am going to play this by eyebrow.....ear is too conventinoal 4 me, OK? will report back.

A Dell restore disk is not an OEM version of XP (horrible word "DELL"!) but a blight on all computer users. Now that that's off my chest - your restore disk will still have an "i386" directory on it. Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the directory and look for "driver.cab". When you find it double click the .cab file and extract it to a temp location on you hard disk. Use the temp location to tell the setup program where to find the missing DLL file.

Alternately you can download the DLL file from here. Once you have it simply browse to it when asked and it will be installed correctly.

Just noticed this bit.:( You are quite correct in this but the disk still has all the Windows files on it and can be used as I described before (to locate a needed Windows DLL file). This article here will give you a tip that ALL users of Dell, Compaq, HP and any others that have "restore" disks should read.

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 08:02 AM

OK, I luv U. though haven't slept in couple of days so I can not be trusted. First, my Optiplex is the best dedktop I have evah seen......this line could say smoked rodent and it would not change its inherent qualty. there are Dells....and there R Dells.

Now....I will totally try wut you were kind enuff to explain.

Add/Remove did allow me to distinguish betweedn my 820 software and my 740i. Using the software Cd again.....attached is wut happened. wut it really says, is WUT PART OF THIS DO'T u GET, YOU CLULESS b____? yOU ARE MISSING A DLL FILE IN windows, OK? Look at the LCD! How plain can we make it, oK?

But thing driving me most nuts....is the PRINTER WORKS LIKE PERFECTLY TUNED MASSERATI. Ferrari. Patket watch..

I need to begin New Plan when I have slept. thank U sooo much.

And please do not diss the Optiplex line.......unlike any desktop you have evah seen.....solid as a rock, made for businesses....and to endure all kinds of Bad...just the twoer interior os To die 4.....I luv them.

Jilly O....forgot, I have 2 new evlls to attach....

C...my all time fav is "Your windows system may have abnormal...." My mother wrote that, OK/ You think I do not know this?

**kev1952** · 12-07-2006, 08:06 AM

Let's get this DLL file installed first and see if that makes the other problem[s] you attached go away.

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 08:11 AM

Sounds like A PLAN. lET ME GET COUPLE HOURS SLEEP as right now, am convinced the dll file is on the Kanye West CD....and that couldn't be right, right?
More like Mary J. Blige. I get silly when not slept.
Thanks so much,
J.

**kev1952** · 12-07-2006, 08:15 AM

I'm heading that way, too. Catch up with you later on.

Wow!!!!!!! I had no clue; this is a total miracle; I NEVAH KNEW THIS, KEV!!!!!!!!!!!

I know with this stunning briliant herd of zebra (yes, I am irrational, but zebra R adorable, OK?.....I will get thru this and know more than evah....and also get biggah. I am serious........this site is wut the whole world should be. And IS NOT.

lET ME USE THAT LINK AND PRINT.....ON MY GOREGOUS 740i Windows thinks is an hallucination.

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 03:27 PM

Note: Just 2 say the second I can follow thru on this stupid thing, I will...have not gone away, just no time right now. Also, the perky (not), how simple is this?(not) page re using a burner....in desktop it would be DeepBurner, yes it has ISO option.....to create bootable CD from, I guess restore disk.....slipstreaming (I guess, as per current administration)-- intimidating.....no matter the perfect series of little illustrations.

Have strong instinct that this printer would function perfectly with my lappy runing XP Home.
OK I get that I can't kill the taskbar balloons reflecting that software is NECROTIC GARBAGE and opposite of brain of living beings....unless I fix the dll file issue.

Orrrr....I could destroy the pixels on the LCD on lower right and turn my speakers off.
Pathetic Windows OSes R supposed 2 B backward compatible, OK?

Should I maybe try compatibility Wizard? If this involved hex wrenches, doweling jig & bar clamps.....it would have been put right yesterday, OK?

I & all my Epsons....will be back the seocnd we can B.
lAs always, the help is deeply appreciated, only reason i have not gotten out either the sledge hammer nor the flame thrower, oK?

J.

**kev1952** · 12-07-2006, 08:29 PM

Get that DLL installed and I reckon we'll knock this problem on the head.

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 10:47 PM

Kev.....(I keep forgetting to log out of this site, I must totally luv it)....I know. When I have the interval to implement the stuff U gotta do....I will get that sucka isolated and put him back in his OS herd.....I think it's a him, OK?
I am little Sheltie dog; dll file is a delinquent sheep, OK? I get it; I c the PMS-making stuff on the page U linked me 2. Can I do it? That's a whole othah thing......will I try? U bet.

....way I C it...should B able to go to MS, highlight any given dll file in any given OS.....download it, nip at its cloven little sheep heels, run arond in circles, bark, drag it drop it..back into the HERD.

I know....everyone is like ""O! Brokeback Mountain!"
well oK, there were sheep/dll files.....but no chemistry between the principals, the sheep had more.

Don't think about it, U will break something.

Altnerative way it outta B: instead of havng stupid validating thingy on MS run every time U go there.....they should ask you as administrator to let them into your OS....IT...should B sheltie, run around, sniff, pant, wag tail....and find any MISSING sheep....AFTER WHICH THE MISSING Sheep GETS DOWNLOADED AUTOMATICALLY.

NOW that is my version of ACTUAL HOTFIX.....NOT THE DUCTAPE PATCHES on Tuesdays; Those R same as Army Corps of Engineers dropping sandbags in levee breaches in New Orleans. Bhaaaaaah (Humbug)

Meanwhile....the gorgeous 740i.....with the transluscent cover the color of the finest Brazilian emeralds....though those R very low on the MOHS scale.....WORKS PERFECTLY, ok? Windows.....is psychotic/out of touch with reality...on autopilot making BALLOONS.

It's pathetic.

I will get it done...extract the sheep and herd it back...and I luv U 4 caring. Also being. Forget...KNOWING STUFF.

Lassie
(who is collie, not sheltie, My Bahhhhhhhdd)

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 11:01 PM

Maybe I am not as nuts as I think! By impulse, just Googled "dll files in XP"and one of the hyperlinks took me to...

http://www.windll.com/

Surely.....or Shirely, there must B a way to go outside the herd and find the CLONE OF THIS SHEEP, Ok? Without having 2 do slipstreaming watevah that is, ISO burning, FOLOW THE INTERFACES to bottom of page.....wut happend to LOGIC, Ok?

J.

Edit: Ok reading on the page above, I now know wut I did whenevah: in my manic download, test, find Less Than, DELETE COMPULSION.....u BET, MORE THAN ONCE, I WENT yes, delete! do not tell me about shared files needed to run the Universe, I know U R lying and just trying to aggravate and scare me. Mea Culpa on that one.

But there must B a way to get a sheep from outside.

**Ariesjill** · 12-07-2006, 11:49 PM

I am rabid sheltie now.....on mission to locate strayed sheep in more logical way; nobody get upset......just think there's gotta B a less protracted way.

Came upon this:
http://www.computing.net/drivers/www...orum/4033.html

Hello? Another human with identical mess!!!!! I am going 2 C if I can get this thingy.....I knw this post was a while back. I am just tired, pained, I want the epidural (if you get this, you win somethin)

Once in a while, I get weak, OK?

J.

**Ariesjill** · 12-08-2006, 12:02 AM

OK no....the above total trick, OK? BUT....now I have place which offers to let U download the exacxt sheep I am missing, oK?

the EPNHTE3N DLL SHEEP!!!!
http://www.dll-downloads.com/hosts.asp?epnhte3n

I am going 2 do this, OK? Because I just know that this sheep exists outside my Dell Restore disk. Sheep......abound, do U hear me? that is why they R called SHEEP.
