Configuring Epson Connect.

Question

I already have a desktop computer linked via WiFi router, and want to link a new laptop to the printer (Epson ET-2500), but found the Epson Connect website so confusing. It has so many download buttons. Which to chose? When does the downloading finish? Then how to select actual printer?

Answer 1

I don't think you need the Epson Connect feature if the laptop is in the same network as the printer. Simply share the printer to be available locally and it's a WiFi printer, then even better. Use the OSD to connect it to the WiFi network and the laptop should see it automatically, but if it doesn't go to Control Panel > Hardware and Devices> Add a printer. Windows should find it automatically.

Also, register for an account on the following page and add your printer, then you can manage it from web without even touching it.
