2021? An antique! How could you expect it to work with the latest ... sorry. This is the wonder of finger pointing suppliers.
In looking at the Epson support there are supposed to be drivers from macOS 10.x - macOS 14.x and the latest 11.x was issued on March 21, 2024.
There wasn't mention if you had tried that driver. Does macOS automatically download the latest drivers for all installed peripherals?
