Epson Workforce 845

Multi Function Printer I bought in 2012 - 2012-09-17-NewMultifunctionPrinter

ink cartridges - 126 series, $18ea; high-capacity 127 series $30ea

Dec'2015: the IMac keeps failing to print to it (over WiFi), while MacBook Pro and ancient IBook work fine.

  • unbelievably, this solution worked - setting up via IP and using HP protocol instead of IPP!?!?
  • Jan'2020 - stopped working (I think the printer's IP changed for some reason), went back to main/default process (triggered by running Epson Printer Finder), and it works again.
  • Apr26'2020 - Google Chrome won't print again, though Safari and other apps do. But running Epson Printer Finder fixed it. (It's currently at 192.168.4.25) (Why did I have to do this again? Maybe remove some printers from Chrome Google Cloud Print settings?
    • actually there weren't any set up - is that the problem? That doesn't make sense, since it worked after doing PrinterFinder. But I added it just in case.
