Windows 10: Epson workforce 645 won't print: "Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the...

As of 12/30/19, my wireless Epson Workforce 645 printer will not print from any device except the desktop to which it is connected via cable. The printer's display shows the WI-FI at full strength, the power is on, and the router is working. I have looked at the device manager, where I found the above error message on the General tab. Under the Events tab, there is this message dated 10/8/19:


Device SWD\DAFWSDProvider\urn:uuid:cfe92100-67c4-11d4-a45f-0026ab63d305/uri:urn:uuid:cfe92100-67c4-11d4-a45f-0026ab63d305/01 requires further installation.

There is no option on the Driver tab to update drivers.


I have gone to Epson's website and looked for any new/updated drivers and found none.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer.

I have restarted my Dell Inspiron 15 multiple times.

I have run the Epson Diagnostic check.

None of the above have had any effect.


I am at the end of my limited abilities. Can someone please advise?

:)

Epson Workforce 645 printer and Windows 10 update

Windows 10 had a large update last week. After the update the Epson Workforce 645 on the network would only print borders and highlights, not text. Did a Windows diagnostic. Everything was good. Downloaded an Epson updater and installed all suggested
updates. Neither of these things helped.

 

Unable to connect the scanner of Epson Workforce 435 Windows 10.

Since downloading Windows 10 I am unable to connect to the scanner of my Epson Workforce 435. It says it is unable to find the scanner even though the printing side of the Workforce 435 is OK.
