New Mac won't recognize old Epson WF645 scanner

As above my new MacBook Air 2020 M1 won't recognize my old Epson WF645 scanner, altho it prints just fine. Old MacBook Pro still scans with ImageCapture. Something is incompatible, I suppose, but can I get it fixed?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

The fix is likely a compatible driver. If there is one, you'll find it on the Epson website.


Epson has stated their driver updating is an ongoing thing so if not there, you'll need to check back often to see if one has been provided. They provided compatible drivers for my old Perfection V33 scanner so they are doing as they say.
