Epson printer not found

[tgerlach]

I have an Intel 24" I-Mac core2 and an EpsonStylus Photo R1800 printer connected by firewire. This printer has worked well for some years.
I tried to get it to network with Airport Extreme so a MacBook Pro could print. Not successful, now the epson printer will not work and doing Print/Fax add printer will not show the printer as available to add. I have uninstalled the Epson software and reinstalled it from disk. This has not helped. I have run the hardware check from the installation disk - all ok.

does anyone have ideas to try next?

thank you, Terry

Moved to correct forum.

Did you try to add it using More Printers and "Epson Firewire?"

Yes, this was the first thing I did.
The screen to add printer comes up, but the printer is not listed to add, just a blank screen when the default button is pressed.

just a blank screen when the default button is pressed.

Not sure, but I think you missed my point.
Don't use the default button - click More Printers and select "Epson Firewire."
