Trying to update the printer driver for an Epson Stylus Photo R360 printer to work with OS Big Sur. The Epson compatibility assistant confirms there is a driver available. But on trying to install the printer I get an error message "An error occurred while trying to add the selected device. successful-ok-ignored-or-substituted-attributes" then abandons the installation. Anybody any idea how to get around this please?
iMac, OS X 10.11
Epson provided a software updater for this printer from June 04, 2019 and claim it is for Catalina. Since Catalina was not introduced until Apple's WWDC later in that month, this is likely a 32-bit printer solution that is not compatible with Catalina, and certainly not for Big Sur. This is at least a 15 year old device that was retired by Epson long ago, and is not supported by Apple's AirPrint either.
Time to shop for a new printer that specifically advertises it supports Apple's AirPrint, so you are not dependent on Epson driver support.
Was it the new 10.85 here?

Hi Jan. Thank you for the link. Just downloaded it and it works perfectly! Thank you so much! Perhaps somebody should tell Epson support about the solution.....?
I have the same problem too with my Epson Stylus NX420 printer. It won't work with OS Big Sur.

Hi waycar,
Have you tried the new v10.85 printer driver here?
Thank you, Jan. I can print again!
Glad to hear that!

Thanks! I had the same issue, and it's resolved now.
Thanks so much mate!!! you are a legend
This is fantastic, thank you all! My SX110 series photo printer works great with this driver, even though it's not on the list of printers to use with it. What a great workaround :-D
Hello, thanks a lot for this driver link, it works well on macOS Big Sur 11.2.1.
WOW! IT WORKED! thank you so much!
