Windows 10: Cannot install drivers for printer EPSON ET-2800 on Surface Laptop Copilot+PC

Hi!I am trying to install drivers for printer EPSON ET-2800 on Surface Laptop Copilot+PC.For this, I downloaded from the Epson site's official driver for this model of printer. However, right in the middle of the installation, a message pops up about the failed installation attempt. Something like this - installation failed, restart your computer and start over. I did a restart. Nothing worked. Can you please tell me how to install drivers on this laptop?Thanks!Maks

epson printer driver not installing

Mmmm, only thing else I can think off is trying Windows Update, otherwise I too am clueless, LOL. I just had a look on the Epson site and they didn't even list a driver for mine under W7, but it worked in W7 when I tried it, even had the epson control panel. Well, until there was a sickening sound of broken plastic and it went west, but thats another story, LOL.

Can you test the printer on another PC by any chance?

 

epson printer driver not installing

My Epson R300 was detected automatically by W7, didn't need to install any extra drivers, W7 had them already (although that may be because its an old printer, depends how new yours is). I'd try removing the epson software, plugging in the printer and uninstall through Device Manager (selecting remove software). Reboot and see if its useable then.
