Epson L8160 driver troubleshooting
Windows does not detect the printer
Check the cable and the port it plugs into. Then restart the printer and the computer. Try a different port if the printer still does not appear.
Printing fails or output looks wrong after installing
Uninstall the current driver. Download the Printer Driver for your system again from the table above. Install it, then restart the computer before printing a test page.
The printer is connected but jobs do not print
Run Epson Printer Connection Checker on Windows. It diagnoses the connection and tries to resolve it automatically. Epson Software Updater can also look for newer printer software.
For “driver is unavailable”, offline printers and stuck print jobs, see our printer driver troubleshooting guide.
