Printer only printing white page

General system Newbie
1

Hello,

I have got a Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 ProX, have recently installed EndeavourOS and am still pretty new to it. I have tried to get my Epson ET-2710 printer to work. It has found it but when I try printing something it only produces a white page. So, it does not come up with any error codes, it pulls the page through and sounds as if it is printing. I have checked whether the printer has got enough ink so that is not the issue.
Here my hardware info:

I am new to EndeavourOS so please be patient with me.
Has anyone got any ideas please?
Thank you.

It looks like the Epson ET-27xx printers may need the driver package epson-inkjet-printer-escpr (no 2 at end)

Arch Wiki Epson

This is in the AUR and can be installed with

yay epson-inkjet-printer-escpr

You can then delete and add the printer again, to get the correct driver during initial setup.

Had forgotten to say that I had installed that driver package but deleting printer and adding it again did the trick. Thank you
