3. Replacing Legacy HP or Xerox Devices

When migrating a large office from HP to Epson, administrators often export old print queues. The HP uses a "Standard TCP/IP Port." When you assign that same port to an Epson, you lose iPL functionality. To regain status monitoring, you must delete the old port and create a new Epson iPL Network Port using the EpsonNet Print utility.

2. Technical Architecture

Procedure for Windows 10/11

  1. Open Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners.
  2. Click Add device, but wait—do not let Windows auto-discover. Click "The printer that I want isn't listed."
  3. Select Add a printer using a TCP/IP address or hostname.
  4. Enter your Epson’s IP address. Uncheck "Query the printer and automatically select the driver."
  5. Critical step: In the port selection screen, look for Epson Network Port or Epson iPL Port. If you only see "Standard TCP/IP Port," cancel the wizard.
  6. Instead, go to the EpsonNet Config utility (download from Epson’s support site). Use it to manually create an iPL Port before running the wizard.
