Epson printer offline "suddenly"

My printer has worked ever since I got my Mac, but yesterday, the error message I get is "Printer offline" and it will not print. There have been no power outages and nothing has changed.

It is wireless and everything else is working.

I've re-installed the drivers, turned the printer off/on as well as restarted my computer. Nothing works.

I know it is something silly and simple, I just cannot figure out what it is!

Any suggestions?

I did have to reset my iPhone IP address to connect to the wifi, but if that is it, how did the printer get involved? If that is it, how did the printer get involved?

Maybe that this : The fStops Hear - epson printer “offline” — Mac could help. What is the exact model of your printer ?

It is the NX420 . Thanks, I will go check out that link

Looks like you're not the only one having problem with this printer !
My printer says "offline" when I try to print. I have an EPSON NX420 how can I fix this? - Yahoo! Answers This could maybe help too.

AH thanks!

Nope, that did not work either. I think that link is for a PC. I may just have to call Epson.

Yes it's a good idea. I can't find any solution online, but a few other people have the same problem as you, so if Epson give you a solution it would be nice to post it here.

I called them and was on hold forever, so I hung up. I will try again later and post if I find a solution.

Thanks for your help.

Still not able to actually talk with anyone at Epson ~ ~ ~ ~ Why even have an 800 number or Customer Service.

I'm guessing you've tried the firmware update
