Epson printer message: "You cannot use AirPrint if Paper Setup Auto Display is disabled."

Quick answer

AirPrint requires the printer's Paper Setup Auto Display feature to be turned on; with it off, AirPrint jobs will not function until the setting is re-enabled.

Before you try the solution

  1. 1. Copy the complete message exactly as shown, including any code, letters, or punctuation the panel puts around it.
  2. 2. Find the printer's exact model number. The same-looking code can mean something different on another model family.
  3. 3. Let the current print, scan, or update operation stop before touching controls, paper paths, or covers.
