Very weird issue. Epson ET-2810 wireless connection, works fine with a Windows laptop and even our iphones but with the Mac it installs fine, all updated drivers, firmware, apps etc, everything checks out and it prints a test page. However I cannot print from anything else, documents, emails, pictures, all different apps. I just get the ‘Looking for printer’ and ‘Communication error’ every time I try. Going to the utilities I can print a test page at any tiem, no error, even if I then queue a document to print immediately after the test page it finishes the test page and comes up with the error on the document. Uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times but now at a loss.

Experiencing the same issue. I'm currently updating my OS in an attempt to repair the communication, but no luck with updating drivers etc. The printer has been working fine up until this point.
