- OS X (other versions): Select the menu > Software Update.
- Do one of the following:
- If you see an update from Epson, select UPDATE to install it.
Note: Apple Software Update may find multiple updates for your system. You may choose to install all or some of the updates by clicking Show Details.
- If an update is not available, you already have the latest drivers from Apple.
- If you see an update from Epson, select UPDATE to install it.
- Open the menu and select System Preferences > Print & Scan, Print & Fax, or Printers & Scanners.
Your product should appear in the left side of the window. If your product is not listed, click the + (Add) icon and select your product.
