How to connect Wi-Fi to an Epson printer?
I really don't understand why, over the past three months, it's become impossible to connect my Epson WF-7710 printer on Windows 10. I've shared my configuration many times on this forum. My hub is a TIM HUB+ Executive ZTE H388XF, and I used it with the Epson for years without any problems. The front panel of the Epson works perfectly with Wi-Fi signals at an excellent IP address. When I scan using the WACME app, the Epson status shows as off. Does the printer have a static IP address? Yes. If so, what IP was assigned? 192.168.1.5. I ran "ipconfig /all" via the Command Prompt. Please paste the full results here. One possibility is that the hub was reset and returned to its default settings. I've tried many times. Now I restarted the PC after a night and the printer started printing again. It's strange. Now I'm blocked here.
Update your post with complete hardware details and operating system information.
Check if the printer uses a static IP address and note the assigned one.
Execute "ipconfig /all" through the Command Prompt.
Present the full output here.
It’s possible the hub was reset, returning to its default configuration.
Just to confirm: the Epson printer is indeed using wireless connectivity? Let's try turning off IPv6 and see if it affects anything.
Examine this printer:

Review the power and sleep settings on the numbered pages 33 and 34.
Recheck the Wi-Fi setup instructions starting from page 47.
Our goal is to verify that the printer is properly set up.
The following will come next to explore the wireless network configuration in more detail.
here the correct printer
i attempt... i'm unsure, but i'm trying
i am unable to download the pdf
Can you view the printer's User Guide online? If yes, review it and take notes if needed. Then visit the printer and verify. Also, do you have access to the printer's configuration menus? Can you print the current settings or test pages through a maintenance menu? If wireless printing isn't possible, use a wired connection (USB or Ethernet) to connect, adjust settings, and print changes. Please ensure all instructions are in English, as this helps avoid confusion.

Just to confirm, you're referring to the Epson printer drivers—correct? Also, do you need to reset the printer each time for wireless setup using a fixed IP address? Can you access the printer directly to view management settings? Where are you obtaining the drivers? Just because the name appears on the site doesn't guarantee it's the real Epson. Are you installing and setting up the drivers yourself without third-party tools? Also, check if your PC is connected via a wired network to the router and if the printer supports wireless connection.

Feel free to adjust as needed.
In Device Manager: is the Epson printer listed? (Make sure to check View > Show hidden devices.)
Are there any alerts in Device Manager?
I just reinstalled the driver, connectivity setup is a step, and it functions until the next restart. Now I’m not home, so I’ll handle it. I’m not sure, the Epson website seems to have a clear site with clear models and pages. It’s up to you whether they’re okay. I use the installer, and the message says: sure, an IP address one and a USB one (sometimes). Sometimes it says "driver printer is uninstalled," but often it’s just a mess after years of good use. I have a Samsung laser printer connected via Wi-Fi and it works perfectly. In the past, both Epson and Samsung worked well over Wi-Fi. With limited room space, using cables becomes difficult.
