My phone keeps looking for an air printer all of a sudden

All of a sudden I can't print from my phone or lap top to my Epson ET-2800. I get a message saying "It can't find an AIR PRINTER". I tried restarting all devices. No luck not sure how to fix this but it is frustrating.

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 17

Do you have any devices that do see the printer on your network?

If not, check to make sure the printer is connected to your network (whether wifi or wired).


I do see one clue looking in the online manual. It says "If you disabled paper configuration messages on your product control panel, you cannot use AirPrint." and "You must enable Paper Setup Auto Display to use AirPrint." You might want to check that setting on your printer.
