![]() When I checked the compatibility of the Epson print drivers and utilities in the "Get Info" screen, they all indicate they are "Intel" apps, rather than "Universal", and therefore not designed to run on Macs with the M1 chip. I am currently using an Epson printer (XP-970) with my older (Intel) MacBook Pro, and am considering upgrading to the new 16-inch M1 MBP when it is released in the next month or so. I guess this printer will have to go back to the store too.I have a question about compatibility between the newer Macs with the M1 chip and Epson printers. There is little to no information about troubleshooting the AirPrint connection in the Epson documentation so I have to conclude that Epson is trying to force Apple users to use the Epson apps rather than AirPrint which is for the birds. That means that the printer is on the network and this iPad can see it but AirPrint isn’t working. However this stupid app, which I shouldn’t need since the printer is AirPrint compatible, can see the printer, no problem. I managed somehow to get the stars to align and printed from one of my iPads twice but have not been able to get the iPad and printer connected since. But for my personal use I am exclusively Apple having am iPhone, 3 iPads, and a Mac, none of which can consistently connect to this printer via AirPrint. The only reason I’m keeping the Epson printer I just bought is because it’s for my business which requires I use a PC for software reasons. I have returned 3 Epson printers and replaced them with Brother or Canon because those brands live up to their claims of being AirPrint compatible. While claiming that Epson printers are AirPrint compatible, I have yet to ever get an Epson printer to consistently work with AirPrint. Epson, Let’s get your printer to consistently work for a change!Įpson seems to universally make their products difficult if not impossible to use with Apple products. I’m getting pretty disgusted with this terrible printer, and pretty fed up! It’s still not connected, and it’s dead in the water, a pretty useless paperweight, as far as I can see right now! EPSON, why can’t you make a printer that actually consistently works, and stays connected to a network? And don’t be blaming the network either, we have a very fast and very capable high speed network with a 1GB fiber connection, with most devices including this printer, connected through hard wired CAT8 Ethernet cables, except for our mobile devices. Do you know what it’s like to try entering a complex wifi password on their tiny “keyboard” with no touch screen? A very time consuming process that would be bad enough if we only had to do it once, but absolute torture to have to do it every other day! Grrrr! □Today I tried numerous times to re-connect this thing, but it failed every single time, both with wifi, and with the Ethernet connection, nothing worked! □. However, it seems like every time we want to print, it has disconnected, and it cannot be found! □ Then we have to start setup all over again, and over again, and over again, and over again, ad infinitum! □. And we were lured in by the economical ink use. When we first got this printer, we liked it despite it having no touch screen, it seemed to work okay.
