While rare, you may need to reset the Ethernet communication settings of an Epson printer.
This is an easy process that takes about 2 minutes to complete.
- Turn off the printer
- Use a paper clip or tip of a pen to press and hold the reset on the back of the printer.
- While holding the reset button, turn the printer on. Continue to hold the reset button.
- After 5 seconds, a warning will print out. Release the reset button.
- After about 5 more seconds, another sheet will print showing the factory reset IP address of the printer. Newer Epson models will default to a DHCP address.
- NOTE: Older Epson printers will default to IP address 192.168.192.168, in this case, skip to section “Legacy Epson Configuration” for configuration instructions
