Epson Printer Not Printing
Forgive me if this question is not in the correct StackExchange.
I have a Epson Stylus NX400 on a 64 bit Windows Vista which can copy things, scan them, communicate it's ink levels to the computer and send jobs to the queue, but when I try to print it gives me a really basic (uninformative) error "Print Preview Error" and "Error Printing." I have tried updating the drivers on the website, uninstalling and reinstalling the whole printer, unplugging/plugging it in, new ink, nozzle checks but I can't seem to get it to print from any program or web browser. I've googled but mostly I'm finding uninformative manuals and as I have been on a Mac for work for several years I cannot think of any other methods of printer troubleshooting.
Any further actions recommended?
Thanks
