Hi,


To begin with, you may want to try resetting the printing system and re-adding the printer.

Reset the Mac printing system to solve a problem - Apple Support

Add a printer on Mac - Apple Support


The Epson ET-2550 is mentioned in About AirPrint - Apple Support as a printer supporting the driverless AirPrint technology, so you should be able to use it without downloading drivers (when connected to a network).


Drivers/software from the printer manufacturer may or may not add functionality.

If there is a problem with USB, try a network connection instead.
