Yes I have the same problem and no way to fix it in the short term besides reconnecting the printer via USB to a Mac and running the network setup again for wifi and then again it only works for a day on the iPhone and somehow just cannot be found again on the wifi network via the iPhone. I have tied ping it to a static IP to see if that helps but still no joy. I have tried sharing options and no joy.

I am using an HP laser jet P1102w. Anyone have an answer to this?

Same issue with EPSON WP4520


I have not been in contact with Epson, but there is no firmware update.


Apple updates ... and I spend a day trying to do what I was able to prior to update ... very frustrating. Sort of makes the upgrade worthless.


Why can't they make these updates backward compatible for a few years or so ... my printer is still being sold. It should not be obsolete by an IOS update. I am still puzzled by how an Apple "update" is the printer makers fault.


Anyways, anyone not anything on Epson?

I am having an issue myself. I have airprint printer. That is annoying. I did find a work around since I have an Epson 545 - I downloaded the app. Now when you open the email attachment. You can send it to that app. (of course mine then closes) but it seems when you open the Epson app. the document is in saved documents and then you can print from there. How annoying is that. hope Apple fixes that. grrrrr
