hi jut got a new computer and trying to connect up my epson printer isnt happening cos i cant find the cd thing to load it on. any ideas how i can get one or download something from the internet?
thanks in advance
you can get all drivers from there. Disconnect the printer before installing until your asked to put it in . I found if you dont do this it can not work.

You can find all the drivers on EPSON web site the other one you will need is the windows software to run your printer, so download it from Microsoft free,the next one you need to make sure your on the correct ports LPT1/ LPT2 if your not in the correct port your computer it just wont print.I had the same problem when i did a clean install.I have added a link to Epson home page.

All Epson printers come with a CD, so I think it should be
easy to find one from a friend. I don‘t know if it will get him
into trouble, so better phone Seiko/Epson to find out. If so
request a new CD, I feel certain that they will oblige.

If your computer is an old model Windows should find it any way, Try "Adding New Material" in the Settings page, plug in your printer then go to Settings / Add new material and follow the instructions and allow looking on the net. Should work

Great question ad thanks for participating. You can get online and go to the epson website where you can easily search for the proper software and drivers for your particular printer. Once located, you'll be able to download them to your hard drive. Be sure to restart the computer afterwards so that the new changes can take effect. Larry RadioShack 01-9590

Have you tried going to the epson site and checking for the model number or better still call the retailer. sometimes they have tech support there or will provide a number for the company. Good LUCK!!
