  1. Reconfigure Epson Printer. If the IP address of the printer does not match with the network’s IP address, then also the connectivity issue arises.

  2. Basically, you need to install: 1. Latest software for your model. Latest software for some other model, if the latest software for your model doesn't work. I have a Perfection 4990. I installed the Epson Scan software for that model. Then I installed the Epson Scan software for the V500 (the model that replaced it).
  3. The Epson Control Dashboard contains a Status Interface, ‘.emx’ profiles (these can be imported directly into Calibrator and are converted automatically to ‘.pmms’) and media settings (which can be copied directly to the printer from the interface). Below you can find the steps to install/configure the Epson Control Dashboard.
  4. Select your EPSON Series product in the Use or Print Using drop-down list, then click the Add button. Go to the menu on your Mac, select Software Update or App Store, then click the Updates tab. Do one of the following: If you see an update from Epson, select UPDATE to install it.

Now everything is hidden, or so complex that, once something is installed and then develops an issue, it is not possible to easily figure out how to uninstall it. There is a way to Reset the Printing System (Control-Click on the printer list of Printers & Scanners in System Preferences, but a further reinstall step needs to be added. What about other components in the system? How does one do a reinstall of something that may go wrong?

In the instructions from Epson below, you can use Command-Shift G in the Finder, then, a.) Replace 'space'>'space with /; b.) Make sure the items are moved to trash and not just copied; c.)

If the support page does not offer a downloadable file, follow the steps for Adding A Printer as you normally would in Printers & Scanners of the Systems Preferences.
