Epson Printer not detected by Airport - Unable to see it in Airport Utility
Hi,
I've sold a trouble regarding Epson SX100 usb printer connected to Airport Express.
In fact, my printer has never been detected by the Airport
This was due to the original Epson drivers, which are really poor and so is the help from apple support !!!
And no matter how many times I've reset it, It seems to refuse to detect it.
After a while, I've installed the last version of Gutenprint 5.2.4.
This has solved a lot of problems since everything works fine now.
what you have to do is to connect your printer to Airport Express, then install gutenprint.
Then, you only have to go in printer preference panel, reset all printers(this will erase all printers from the list), click on "+", then you should be able to see your printer as "bonjour" with the drivers CUPS + Gutenprint.
Add it and Enjoy!
