I’d first remove the ET-2400 from System Settings > Printers & Scanners, then add it again. If your Mac offers AirPrint in the “Use” menu, select that rather than an older Epson driver. Apple recommends this when a previously added printer stops working.


Also make sure the Mac and printer are still on the same Wi-Fi network.


I wouldn’t reset the entire printing system yet, since that removes all printers and printer presets.

If your Epson ET-2400 stopped communicating with your MacBook Air after the macOS Tahoe 26.6.2 update, the information available does not establish the cause.


First, make sure the Mac and printer are connected to the same Wi-Fi network


Then go to System Settings >> Printers & Scanners, remove the ET-2400, and add it again. 


When you add it, select AirPrint if that option is offered.


Apple recommends AirPrint for compatible printers and notes that it does not require additional printer drivers.


If the ET-2400 still does not work, Apple recommends checking that the printer software is current and, if necessary, resetting the Mac's printing system and adding the printer again.
