Why is my Epson scanner not connecting to my computer wirelessly?

There could be several reasons why your Epson Scanner may not be connecting to your computer wirelessly, such as:

If the Event Manager utility is being blocked by your firewall or the antivirus software The Epson Scan function is not started before the scanning If the device does not support starting a scan with the scanner button wirelessly When scanning the original file of a high resolution If the network communication is interrupted while starting Epson Scan Check the connection setting of your Epson scanner and test the connection using the Scan Settings The firewall and the anti-virus software on your wireless router or access point are blocking the connection When there is a communication error between the scanner and the computer If your network is using IPv6 because Epson Scan does not support the configuration

While adding the Event Manager utility to the Firewall/antivirus exclusions list can fix the issue, using an IPv4 network can also help the scanner connect to your PC wirelessly.
