Firmware update
EpsonNet WinAssist provides the following menus and sub-menus.
Set the length of time before a timeout occurs (between 2 and 120 seconds). The default value is 6 seconds. A communication error occurs if this time is exceeded. If you set a larger value, it takes more time to search for the network printers. Therefore, change this value only if you prefer.
Select Refresh from the View menu or restart EpsonNet WinAssist for the settings to take effect.
You can select the connections and protocols to search for a print server. You can select from the following: LAN connection using TCP/IP, IPX, and NetBEUI protocols, or USB connection.
Select the Select All radio button to search for print servers with all the available connections and protocols, or select the Select Individually radio button to select the preferred connections and protocols.
Select Refresh from the View menu or restart EpsonNet WinAssist for the settings to take effect.

To search for print servers in other segments, set the specific network address and the subnet mask. The settings you modified on this screen do not affect the search parameters used for EpsonNet WinAssist EasySetup.
Select Refresh from the View menu or restart EpsonNet WinAssist for the settings to take effect.
