    Checked RoaringApps App Compatibility Table.  These are apps not drivers but.. 

     

    All I see listed is:

     

    - Epson LFP Remote Panel 3.6.1 and with a ? under Mountain Lion

     

    - Epson Printer Utility 4 8.6.1 and red X indicating non-compatibility with Mountain Lion

     

    - Epson Scan 3.7.5 and a green check mark showing compatibility with Mountain Lion

    On the Epson Website.  Under Drivers and Downloads for the Stylus Pro 7700 with Mountain Lion, it looks like there is:

     

    Drivers:

     

    - Printer Driver v8.63

     

    Utilities:

     

    - Remote Panel 2 Utility v1.30

     

    - Uninstall Center v1.1.0

     

    Firmware:

     

    - Firmware Update version KND14BA

    Did you download and install all of these from the Epson website?

    DMerz clearly went to a lot of trouble and provided an excellent response above.

     

    Here's a little bit of additional information:

     

    This Mac 101 Printing article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4670

     

    ... no longer lists your printer as supported by Apple's normal printer download method.

     

    Nonetheless, as DMerz suggests, you should be able to find what you need on Epson's website.  Assuming you do, you should look there periodically for updates.
