Printers compatable with Ventura

looking to replace our Epson WF-2860 with a new ink-jet compatible with Ventura. Have tried multiple driver updates to no avail. Could be a problem with the printer itself as it no longer connects via USB. Will "go offline" every other day, requiring a re-install - sometimes as the IP address. Works for a bit, then quits. Cannot be found by AirPrint. Our old Epson XP-410 works reasonably well, but need 2-sided printing, and probably a tank printer. Looked at Canon, HP, Brother and Epson - but none specifically state they work with Ventura. Suggestions? Don't want to spend a fortune, but about $200 OK. Just need one that doesn't have to be reinstalled every couple of days....

Hi,

Also, it is interesting to note that both existing printers (Epson WF-2860 and XP-410) are listed as AirPrint-supported models, and thus compatible with macOS (13 Ventura). So, they should work without additional drivers, provided that the printer(s) and the Mac are connected to the same network (Wi-Fi router). AirPrint works with wireless (Wi-Fi) or wired (Ethernet) network connections.

Regarding AirPrint discovery, any change if you try the following procedure in this order (do not forget the router)?

Power off the Wi-Fi router, the printer(s), the Mac, and all other computers/devices. Wait two to three minutes. Power on the router. Wait two to three minutes. Power on the printer(s). Wait a minute or two. Power on the Mac. Finally, power on all other computers/devices.
