I can't print from Windows with a wireless connection since I received an exchange product from Epson. What should I do?

  • You'll need to set up your product again. Do the following:

    Disable the Firewall

    1. Do one of the following:

      • Windows 8.x: Navigate to the Apps screen and select Control Panel > Windows Firewall.
      • Windows (other versions): Click or Start > Control Panel > System and Security > Windows Firewall.

    2. Disable the firewall. If you have other firewall software enabled, you'll also need to disable it. If you don't know how to disable it, contact your firewall provider for help.

      Note: This step is needed to install the product's software and complete the Wi-Fi setup. Remember to enable your firewall software after you complete the Wi-Fi setup.

    3. Go to the next section. (If you are unable to complete this section, contact Epson support.)

    Install the Product Software

    1. Do one of the following:

      • If you received an Epson XP-810 for exchange, download the Drivers and Utilities Combo Package from the Downloads tab for your product.
      • If you received a different product (not an Epson XP-810), go to the main Epson support page. Select your product, and select Downloads. Download the Drivers and Utilities Combo Package for your product.

      Note: Make a note of the file name and save the location so you can retrieve it.

      Important: You'll need to know your network name (SSID) and network password before you can set up your product. If you don't know them, contact the manufacturer of your router or the person who set up your network.

    2. Open the file you downloaded and follow the on-screen instructions. When you see the Select Your Connection screen, select Wireless connection, then click Next.


    3. When you see the Select Setup Option screen, select Set up printer for the first time, then click Next.


      If you see this screen, click Options.

    4. When you see the Select a Wireless Network Setup Method screen, follow the instructions on the computer screen to complete the installation.

      Note: We recommend using a temporary USB cable connection (cable not included) to simplify wireless setup. If you don't have the cable, select Using printer buttons to set up your printer.

      After you complete the Wi-Fi setup, remember to enable your firewall. If these troubleshooting instructions did not solve the problem, please contact Epson support.
