A Windows 11 driver is not available for my printer or all-in-one on my product's support page. How do I use my product with Windows 11?

Description

If your product doesn't have a dedicated Windows 11 driver published on its support page, you can still use it via Windows' own built-in driver — officially called Windows Ready Print. It installs automatically and doesn't require anything from the Epson website.

Solution

  1. Turn on your Windows 11 computer and make sure it's connected to the internet.
  2. Connect your product to the same network as your computer, or connect it directly with a USB cable. Windows 11 will automatically install the built-in driver for your product.
  3. Select Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners.

Verifying the Driver Installed Correctly

  1. Select Windows 11 Start icon > Windows 11 Settings icon Settings.

  2. Select Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners. An icon for your printer or all-in-one should appear.
