Obviously I'll continue to look for a work around, but I don't understand why NAV ignores the settings while all Office products (easiest test) do not...

I recently purchased an Epson printer but when I tried to connect it with my windwos10 system, the system is not able to recognize it and show me Epson Printer Error 0xe3 whenever I tried to connect it. Is anyone else facing such kind of error? Any Idea regarding this kind of printer related error?
