Printer issues with Sequoia

Is anyone else running into printer issues after updating to Sequoia?

In order to print my documents properly, I would always format them for my specific printer. Now my printer doesn't show up on the "Format for" list in either Word or Pages. The printer is installed and I've been able to print some things. However, it isn't allowing me to format for my particular printer anymore. It just gives me "Any printer" as an option. This means my booklets are no longer printing correctly.



MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 15.0

Had the same issue but just got it to work fine now! Open System Settings - Privacy & Security - Local Network and enable the app 'rastertoescpII'. There are manu other epson Apps listed there you might want to check too.

I got the lead for fixing it and mode info: https://epson.com.jm/faq/SPT_SEQUOIA-NS~faq-0000b89-macos_15?faq_cat=faq-topFaqs

Since updating to Sequoia, from my MacBook Air I get a Communication Error with my printer Epson ET-1810. The printer shows online in the wifi network though, and I can print from my phone. It's just on the Mac that the problem exists. Deleted & reinstalled all Epson software, rebooted etc. Drivers are up to date. Sometimes it will suddenly print a page after a very long wait, but when trying again it keeps forever "looking for printer" and giving "communication error". When I pause the print job it shows the printer as online, idle. Start the job again and the error comes immediately back.

Removing and re-adding the printer does not change anything.

Anyone had the same and suceeded in solving it?

My two cents... upgraded to Sequoia 15.1 yesterday and now my MacBook Air M3 won't recognize my two printers in the office (a Brother and an HP) nor will it recognize my Brother at home (different model). Apple Support on the phone this morning could not solve either. Blamed the printer drivers ( all four????). My iPad Pro M4 works flawlessly while printing. I've tried deleting the office printers but now because 15.1 can't even see them, I am unable to get them back as an available printer on my Air. I have gotten the office HP to print from the MacBook but I have to go through the HP Smart app.
