1. Check Physical Connections

USB Connection: Ensure the USB cable is securely plugged into both the printer and your computer. Try a different USB port or cable if necessary.

Wi-Fi Connection: Confirm your printer is connected to the same network as your computer. Sometimes, printers disconnect from Wi-Fi, so checking the network settings on both the printer and computer is important.

2. Restart Devices

Power cycle both the printer and your computer. This can often resolve any temporary communication issues.

3. Update or Reinstall Printer Drivers

Outdated or corrupted drivers can prevent your printer from connecting. Visit the official Epson website to download the latest drivers for your model. After installation, restart both the printer and computer to complete the update.

4. Run the Printer Troubleshooter (Windows)

For Windows users, the built-in printer troubleshooter can automatically detect and fix common issues. Go to Settings > Devices > Printers & Scanners, select your Epson printer, and click Manage > Run the Troubleshooter.

5. Check Printer Settings

Make sure your printer is not in “Offline” mode. In the Printers & Scanners settings, ensure the printer is set to “Use Printer Online.”

If using Wi-Fi, check that the printer has a stable connection and isn’t experiencing signal issues.

6. Reset the Printer

If the above steps don’t work, consider resetting your printer to its factory settings. Refer to your printer’s manual for instructions on how to reset it.

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve most connection issues and get your Epson printer working with your computer again. If the problem persists, you might need to contact Epson support for further assistance.
