What do you need to know about free software?
Hi,
I can understand the inconvenience you have to face on the issue. However, Microsoft does not make hardware drivers for the printer that you are using. Each driver is produced with it's own digital signatures and if you install it, you might or might not see the updates for the same in Windows Updates. The availability is checked by checking the digital signatures and the hardware IDs on the driver.
I would recommend downloading it from the support website of Epson and installing them.
If you are unable to find the drivers for Windows 10, you may try to install the drivers in compatibility mode with Windows 8.1.
Firstly download the driver from your computer manufacturer’s website and then install it.
