I have tried everything to get the iMac to recognize my printer Epson 835 I first tried it wirelessly with no luck then I tried with the USB cord nothing. I searched Apple and found some drivers to download for Epson printers I thought this would take care of it but still I am unable to see the printer when I go to system preferences and printers add printer. I must be missing something here any help would be appreciated.
Got a tip for us?

Epson Artisan 835 software for OS X 10.9 is here: http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/...okie=yes&infoType=Downloads&platform=OSF_M_X9
There's some tips on how to get the software installed, too.
I would try USB, leave the printer powered on, then restart your Mac - and try to add the printer.
If you prefer to use wireless - is your wireless network visible from the printer?

Yes I have had the printer a few years. I can print to it from both my iPad & iPhones. When I plug USB in nothing happens not even system tone. When I go to the add printer area nothing shows up as far as drivers or software being available.
All I get from the link is the following
