Connect Epson Printer Wireless Problem

I just changed internet providers and have a new modem. I need to connect my iMac to an Epson 1430 printer via WIFI. Epson wants me to install the setup with their CD and use a USB cable, however I have no CD drive . Have looked extensively on the Epson Support Site for a way but found nothing. Anyone know how to do this or if Epson does have a way to download the procedure.

Go back to them and ask if they have a link that you can download. I have 3 printers, an Epson P600 for my photographs only, an HP for colour printing of anything of no importance and a Brother B&W ink only workhorse for print such as letters and I have found that all the printers helplines are very good.

All you have to do is google epson 1430 wifi setup and you get the directions.

Press and hold the Wi-Fi button on the printer for 3 seconds. Try connecting to the router or access point with your computer or another device to confirm that it is working correctly. Try resetting the router (turn it off and then on), then try to connect to it again. Press the button to print a network status sheet.

There are phone numbers for Epson support on this PDF file. Give them a call and they will walk you through it.

Thanks to jeep daddy for the phone number. Epson does not seem to put that on their website.

For anyone else that may have this issue with Macs that do not have a disk drive and have mac OS Mojave. On the Epson support page for printers put in Artisan 1430 and where it asks for the operating system use 10.13x NOT Mojave.This will give you a download of 15637.dmg. This will work just fine.
