Ok, Im not the most I.T savvy person going, but the printer came without ANY cables, and although it is wifi enabled, my office pc isn't which means I am connecting it to wire a cable.

I got a cable (I don't know what exactly its called Blush ) and connected the printer to the pc, and its showing up in my printer options as fax only? What on earth is going on?? on the lcd display, the fax, copy and scan icons are appearing and the printer isn't.

Can someone PLEASE tell which cables this printer needs so I can just go and buy them and PRINT, I am tearing my hair out in frustration with this damn thing!


Thank you thank you

I assume you didn't get a software disc with it either? If not, got to the Epson website and download the drivers for it www.epson.co.uk/gb/en/viewcon/corporatesite/products/mainunits/support/11948 - there are instructions on that site as well. Try those and see if it helps.

try this --

hardware and sound --
devices and printers --
right click the picture of your printer and click/tick by
set as default printer
you may have to reboot after this but not sure
