can i use my epson et-2800 printer without a computer, just from my phone?

— asked by Taylor

Absolutely. You have a few different ways to do that.

  1. Wireless Printing: First, connect the printer to your Wi-Fi network using the LCD panel. Then, on your phone, you can use the Epson Smart Panel App, the Epson iPrint App (for iOS or Android), or built-in services like Apple AirPrint or Android Printing.
  2. Wi-Fi Direct: If you don't want to use your home network, enable Wi-Fi Direct on the printer. Connect your phone directly to the printer's own Wi-Fi signal, then use the Epson app.
  3. Standalone Copying: You don't need any device for copying. Place your original on the glass, use the LCD to adjust settings, and press start. It can make up to 99 copies standalone.

IF THAT DIDN'T WORK: For wireless printing from your phone, most features require an Internet connection to the printer. Make sure your printer is connected to your Wi-Fi, not just in Direct mode. Also, voice-activated printing requires an Epson Connect account and registration.

HEADS UP: Scanning to your phone typically requires the Epson Smart Panel app to be installed and the printer to be on the same Wi-Fi network.
