Epson Stylus Photo R3000 problem

My Epson Stylus Photo R3000 has developed a problem (printing via Photoshop CC). The Printer starts OK, but after a while slows down and then stops altogether. After waiting a few minutes the print is ejected and only the first part of the image appears (bleeding from image to the white of the paper).
I contacted Epson and after many emails asking many questions, and involving me sending samples of the problem, they suggested I try Epson Easy Photo Print software which seemed to cure the problem. Epson’s reply was ‘in that case it was an issue with the software. As this is not Epson software we are unable to troubleshoot it’. Easy Photo Print doesn’t have the control that I need.
Any help with this problem would be much appreciated.

I use this printer and print from LR. Easy to set up and print.

This is really basic but, have you tried uninstalling and then reinstalling both the printer and PS?

Many apologies for not getting back and thanking you both for your input. I did try printing via Lightroom but the problem persisted. I had not tried the obvious by reinstalling the printer software as Epson had said it was not a problem with their software. (I had however reinstalled PS without success) Reinstalling the Epson software seems to have worked as I have done a couple of prints without the problem, so far so good. Thank you

I had a similar printing problem on my R3000 , but somehow it corrected itself. Or I did a 'procedure' which must have helped a return to normal. Sorry I cannot be more helpful. Hope the printer carries on working OK.
