I installed catalina on my Mac mini and now I cannot print on my epson workforce 845 printer. Drivers are up to date. The mac software seems to think the printing executed just fine, but the printer doesn't budge. I can still print fine from my iPad and my MacBook Air. Any ideas?
Mac mini 2018 or later
Resetting the printing system and choosing AirPrint seems to work. Thanks for the links!

Hello, danfromacton.
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you're unable to print from your Mac Mini since updating to macOS Catalina. You've done an excellent step in checking your other devices to make sure the printer isn't the issue and I have some information that may help. Start with this article here: If you can't print from your Mac or iOS device
You can also test to see if you have any issues in a test user account and safe mode:

Resetting the printing system worked for me too. Thanks to this thread!
