How can I check if the Epson L1300 is recognized by my computer?

In Windows, open Device Manager and look for the Epson L1300 under 'Printers' or 'Other devices'. If it appears with a yellow exclamation mark, there's a driver issue. On a Mac, go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners. If the printer isn't listed, it's not being recognized. Try adding it manually using the 'Add Printer' button.
