Big download of all Epson drivers with no way to select your specific printer. Just another reason to wait for Apple's software update when my specific drivers are updated sometime during this century.

The Epson website clearly shows the Stylus Photo 1280 does not offer a native driver except for "Gluttonprint."

It seems like every time Apple offers a significant upgrade, it takes Epson 3 to 6 months to catch up? Scanners take even longer. This is ridiculous considering developers receive all of the OS upgrade seeds long before the public does.

I realize that every one wants to wait for the final release so they don't have to tweak the drivers to work perfectly with the final version. But they should accept that as THEIR problem, not ours.

So what I propose is that Epson release 50% to 75% fewer printers and scanners always keeping their drivers high quality and on schedule. Does the market really need or want all of the hardware variety Epson comes out with? Probably not.

So I am giving this installer and so called upgrade to Snow Leopard a one star for slow and poor upgrade implementation.

After years of using the official drivers for my 1280, I just started using the Guttonprint driver that shipped with Snow leopard and I think the Guttonprint driver is better. Allows access to more printer features and gives higher quality prints.

Unfortunately, you are rating Epson, and not the software....
