Every time I go to use the Epson Printer (ET-2750), with Windows 11, it never finds the printer, it has to search it out. I usually have to go to the Printer app & "Remind" it that it's the printer. It goes through this troubleshooting mode of finally doing something to the "Spooler" and then it will kick on & recognize the printer. I have called Epson numerous times on this. But it appears to be the problem of Windows 11 and not Epson.
-Has anyone experienced this issue?

2024-07-30T04:13:30+00:00 I just spent the day setting up my new lap top with Windows 11 and ran into the problem described in these posts. I resolved the issue by removing all of the software installed by the Drivers and Utilities Combo Package Installer. I then rebooted the PC and just installed the Printer Driver v2.71.00. When the screen shows the option for "YES: Network Connection" or "USB Connection" choose "YES: Network Connection". Then selected search options "Connect to the printer with the specified IP address" and plugged in the IP Address being used by my ET-2750 printer. I found that address by printing out the network settings. That is done by using the printer control panel. Under Settings-?Network Settings->Print Status Sheet. On the printout there is a section headed: TCP/IP IPv4 and under that section there is a setting named IP Address that you enter in the aforementioned screen.
A little convoluted but as of this evening it seems to be working. Of course I don't know if/when the IP Address may be modified. Hopefully the address is just set once when initially configuring the printer to the WIFI network. I'm going to make some detailed notes for myself because I'm sure this will all be forgotten the next time this becomes a problem.
Hopefully someone will find this helpful. I've had a long frustrating day.

2024-07-13T09:28:38+00:00 Ahh Epsom / Win 11 You are not alone. My trusty sx218 printer scanner has fallen foul of Windows 11. Prints rubbish even with Epson's latest driver. Today Argos new WiFi printer not Epson. Annoying bit is ..It prints perfectly with our Win 10 laptops.
Still 14 years of service not bad.
