How to install a network printer in Windows 8?

Hello

Need help.

I have an Epson L210 printer installed on Windows XP computer and the printer is shared. Other computers in the network and all this are Windows XP, everything can connect to the printer.

This is the problem, the L210 Epson can be seen from the device and printers, option to add a printer to my laptop Win 8 but the problem is when I try to connect, the system can not find the driver to install the printer in my laptop Windows 8. The most funny thing is when I try this with Windows 7 and XP PC, I can easily connect and install the printer.

What gives?

TNX in advance.

Given that Windows 8 is much more recent and has a lot of changes in XP cover, the same driver may not work.

Download the driver for the printer from Epson.com. If it is not a driver Win 8, trying to find one for Win 7. Unzip the driver on your hard drive - if you run the downloaded installer, you will be able to decompress the files.

When you add a printer, rather than letting Windows find the driver, select the option to choose the driver manually. It lets you choose a location - pointing to the folder you unzipped the driver to.
