Jerry:
Great :)

Derekg:
Jerry, i did what you said and got no errors when installing the driver software. I rebooted my computer and did a test with the scanner, and it works so does the printing. Cheers for everyone that helped out.

Jerry:
The printer is already supported by the kernel. If for some reason the printer does not set up and self-config, do:


--- Code: ---sudo apt-get install printer-driver-escpr
--- End code ---

or

Jerry:
This is getting over-complicated.

Undo ALL that you have done to date, I don't know why people are suggesting what they have so far. I'm sure the intent is good, but the research needs to be 100% accurate.
Don't do ANY of the below until you have undone previous work. Remove any Epson printers listed in Printers, then reboot before proceeding.

Download - https://download2.ebz.epson.net/imagescanv3/ubuntu/lts1/deb/x64/imagescan-bundle-ubuntu-20.04-3.63.0.x64.deb.tar.gz

Extract package.

Open extracted folder. Right click Open Terminal here.


--- Code: ---sudo su
--- End code ---

enter password.


--- Code: ---./install.sh
--- End code ---

follow instructions.

If you get errors, it will be because you have missed a step or not followed the instructions provided to the letter.

Derekg:
I used sudo ./install.sh in the directory of the driver i downloaded, but still get the same error message.
