Epson printer issues with Windows 11

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?

    I have the same issue with my ET-3750 plus windows 11 being a disaster with many other applications. I am going to have my laptop restored to windows 10 so that it might actually work again. Also lost the drag function in 11 for highlighting multiple cells in Excel and other apps, it is a complete nightmare, and productivity destroyer

    Same here. Epson ET-3850. Ran perfectly on 10. Then I made the deadly mistake of going to 11. Now it is too late to undo. I've wasted half of my life trying to get this thing to connect. This is a NEW printer.

    Unfortunately, my window to go back has closed. However, I did discover that windows defender has 3 parts, and all three have to be disabled individually. So far, so good. We shall see.

    Still not working. Thought I"had it" but alas, failure again. I even tried USB connection, and that doesn't work either. I contacted Epson. The reply was "Paper Jam". Needless to say, I was livid.....

    I have a WF-3640 which worked fine when I first updated to W11, then suddenly it stopped working today. I updated all my drivers but still can't communicate with either the printer or the scanner. I know it's not a printer problem because I can still print and scan from my laptop which is Windows 10.

    Any suggestions?
