Is Epson compatible with Windows 11?

Yes, Epson is compatible with Windows 11. Epson printers will work with the operating system just as they did before.

The only difference is that you need to update your Epson printer driver for Windows 11. This can be done through the manufacturer’s website or by downloading the latest version of their software using a third-party tool.

For a section of Windows 11 users, the software may crash on startup. Epson, however, assures users that this is normal and that they should download the Epson software updater to resolve this issue.

While using the printer, you may encounter a problem where the Epson printer won’t print. We have a detailed article to help you resolve this issue.
