Connecting Epson Printer

Thank you.

Would it be correct to assume that you are using the macOS 12 Monterey in your profile?

If so, is the latest Epson driver installed?

If necessary, try to reset the printing system and re-add the printer:

Reset the printing system on your Mac to solve a problem – Apple Support (UK)

Add a printer to your printer list so you can use it on Mac – Apple Support (UK)

Only by doing an erase & reinstall! :(

Start with this of M1 or M2 Mac...

On your Mac, choose Apple menu  > Shut Down.

Wait for your Mac to shut down completely. A Mac is completely shut down when the screen is black and any lights (including in the Touch Bar) are off.

Press and hold the power button on your Mac until “Loading startup options” appears.

Select a volume.

Press and hold the Shift key, then click Continue in Safe Mode.

The computer restarts automatically. When the login window appears, you should see “Safe Boot” in the menu bar.

Restart normally.

Start with this if IntelMac...

Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode? Could take 10 minutes or more.

Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.

The Terminal is not really my cup of tea, so hopefully someone else will chime in.

Have you tried a safe boot followed by a normal startup?

Hi,

Any information about the exact Epson printer model?
