[QUOTE="bernard smith, post: 1921611, member: 401391"] Hi Ian The first issue is that the driver from Epson won't install. It gets to the last leg and then a failure message pops up everytime.. see screenshot below. I have deleted the driver and cleared the bin, then downloaded it again from Epson and the same thing happens. [B]"The installation failed.

[/B] It was working fine with Monterey before so I am lost really as to what it is. Without the driver being on the Mac (which is the problem) the printer can't be used as Apple don't have this printer in the drop down list when trying to add a printer ( see second screenshot ). It is connected by USB as the printer does not use Wifi and the router is a bit far away to run an ethernet cable which would mean having cables all over the floor. When I say rolling back I am talking about restore using time machine back up to a date when I know that the printer worked. I don't propose fully reinstalling the OS.
