Epson printer XP-322 not printing any more after update to BigSur

After updating to BigSur I can not print any more with an unknown error. Scanning works. I removed my printer and try to add it again. It is recognized. It offers me to add "Epson XP-322 323 325 Series". If I click on add, it tells me something like (translating from German):

Configure "Epson XP-322 323 325 Series" ...

An error occurred while adding the selected device. successful-ok-ignored-or-substituted-attributes

The text in italics is not translated. The printer is connected via USB cable. Does anyone know a trick how to add it again?

iMac 21.5″ 4K, macOS 11.0

Issue solved. According to this page from Epson Germany one needs to install printer driver version v10.85: https://www.epson.de/viewcon/corporatesite/kb/index/1019

However I didn't find the driver there yesterday. A search for Epson driver download v10.85 finally lead me to the international (or US?) page of Epson. I downloaded the driver from there and now it prints again.

Update: I connected my MacBook Air (also with Bug Sur installed) with the printer. I never added a printer before on the MacBook Air. When I try to add a printer, it recognizes it, but it doesn't offer to install a driver. Instead it says (translated from German): "The printer software is not available from Apple. You can obtain the newest printer software from the manufacturer."

The latter link also worked for my Epson Stylus SX215. Thanks for the suggestion.
