QUOTE(Keatsan @ Nov 28 2019, 10:12 AM) Have you try to download the latest drivers from Epson website themselves? I have various dot matrix printers within my organisation using win 10 1803 and 1809 mostly. Don't seems to have issue. Could you be more specific on what was the issue causing unable to print? Any error code or pop ups or slight hint that could assist in troubleshooting A pc is main via USB, B pc is via network share from A pc which open sharing port... after update every pc that share from network all down... only USB direct can print.... pls assist there is no KB which Microsoft ask to remove on those Win 10 version 1703 / 1803 / 1809

Try enable firewall and share the printer setup again. And this issue doesn't seems related to the main topic for this. It's probably just latest windows update change some security settings that will restrict usage of network sharing printer. You will need to reconfigure

It seems to affect all Epson brand of dot matrix printers including Epson laser printers.

Is this still a thing in 2022? I thought they should have fixed it by now, whether its MSFT or Epson.
