Add Printer (via IP) could not find the driver, though and leaves me with 'Generic PS Printer'.

Print a Network Settings page from the Setup mode on the printer control panel to get the IP of the printer

In the Add Printer (IP) window, use the following...

Protocol: Line Printer Daemon – LPD

Address: enter the IP address of the printer from the printed Network Settings page

Queue: can leave blank

Name: should automatically fill with the IP address input above

Location: can leave blank

Print Using: click on "Generic PostScript Printer" and select "Select Printer Software..." A window will pop open with a list of all the print drivers on your computer. Scroll or filter for Epson SX435W and click it.

Click the Add button

See the section: Installing a wireless printer

As for setting a static IP address for the printer, see the Epson Network Config User Guide

That's strange as I have a bunch of Apple print drivers and others brands that I think was part of the OS 10.7 pkg...

Anyway, try...

For Print Using: click on "Generic PostScript Printer" and select "Other..."

That should then open a Finder window where the Epson print driver should be.

Folders path to user installed print drivers: HD/Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/

(FYI: This is a different path than the one that "Select Printer Software" opens.)

If the problem persist, check if you have the most recent version of EpsonNet Config on the Epson UK website.

You're very welcome, Gottalight!

Thanks for posting back as it may help other users.

Enjoy your printer and printing... 😉
