The simplest thing to do first rather than messing about configuring is to uninstall the printer entirely and reinstall onto your wireless network using the drivers/installation files.

Was the printer connected by USB but switched off until it asked you to connect the printer, usually with a box on the top left of the screen?

Some Epson's will set the wireless up provided it is connected by USB initially

printer was switched on with usb connected, i went up to the stage where it was to go wireless and could not pass this, so tried to connect with usb setting no joy with that either.

under advice i had to change the router to wep because the computor i have would not connect to internet, its one i have not used for a while and my other one broke. since i did this i cant print

I have Epson printers and they need to be switched off until it shows a box to connect the printer

Which make and model printer have you got?

Just to clarify, it is installed now but won't print wirelessly?
