Good evening everyone,
As the title indicates, I have a problem. Indeed, I just bought an Epson XP-205 printer that works via Wi-Fi (partly). I have already installed the printer on my PC (Windows 7) and I managed to print the test page; everything went well without any issues.
But now, I need my printer and I have to configure it, but I'm not quite sure what to do. Anyway, the problem is that Epson Connect Printer Setup no longer detects my printer. I have tried reinstalling everything, but it still won't detect it.
If someone could help a novice like me, it would be really kind.
Thank you in advance...

Hello,
EPSON Connect allows you to print on your personal printer while you're not at home, but at an Internet Café somewhere in the world...

To use this service, you need to register on the EPSON Connect website.
I seriously doubt that you really need this service to print at home, on your personal printer.
If your printer isn't communicating with the computer, it's because you haven't managed to connect it to your BOX via WIFI.
The procedure to connect a printer via WIFI is:
1°) establish the connection between the BOX and the printer.
2°) install the printer drivers specifying that it is on a network/WIFI.
Regards to those who follow my comments, and also to those who couldn't care less, but less so...
