Something weird happened with my printer. I can not login to web interface 192.168.192.168/webconfig. Also, I can not ping it. I tried to reset it to factory settings with pushing the reset button on the back side of the printer. It did not work. Maybe someone faced the same issue before. How can I bring my printer IP settings back?

I tried that technique as well but that seems to apply to only some models.

I followed the instructions I found here: https://support.revelsystems.com/hc/en-us/articles/204186869-How-to-Reset-and-Configure-an-Epson-Printer

  1. Turn the printer off
  2. Use a paper clip or tip of a pen to press and hold the reset on the back of the printer.
  3. While holding the reset button, turn the printer on.
  4. Continue to hold the reset button. After 5 seconds, a warning will print out. Release the reset button.

The warning would say:

Resetting to Factory Default!

Please Wait...

WARNING: DO NOT TURN OFF POWER

After 5 minutes I would turn it off and then turn it back on, and I would confirm that the reset worked.
