Since updating Windows 11 on my laptop, my Epson printer will not print, but laptop can find printer. Documents print from my mobile so I know it is not the printer. Drivers up to date on printer; no pending Windows updates.

    Emmanuel: Having similar problem Windows 10 Epson ET-2650 printer. Have tried your fix above, no joy. Have gone back to earlier Windows before it updated, no joy. Have deleted and re-installed brand new drivers, no joy. Have reset router several times, no joy. Have checked router company, they can see the router is working with the computer and that the printer is online. Epson Customer support sees the same. Only thing left is Windows issue. Got any suggestions?

    Epson ET-4700, I can print without any issues. I am trying to scan a document to email and get the error Communication error. Check the connection. I printed another notepad test message successfully, tried to scan the document again. I got the same message again. I do not understand how there can be a communication error when I can print without any issues?
