Epson SX515W problem - please help

Spooky-Vinny

Good day all,
i resently puchased a Epson SX515W printer and am having problem making it print using my Mac laptop.
The status of the printer on the MacBook is "ready" until it is chosen to make a print, then the status becomes "printer is currently off-line" and does not print after that. a box also pops up saying "remaining ink level" but does not load completely. the connection from the MacBook to the Printer is perfectly fine until it is chosen to make a print. the printer is wireless.
I know the printer does work because it is also connected to my windows laptop and it work fine, but will not seem to work for my MacBook.
I need help as soon as possible so hopefully someone has had the exact same problem and was able to solve this.
I need help as soon as possible as i have collage work i must print out.
thank you for your time.

Dont know much about macs although I doubt a driver uninstall/reinstall would do any harm, remove the epson driver, go on to www.epson.com, go to support>Drivers & downloads and get the latest driver for the printer, other than that I havn't a clue, also your probably better chance of getting a response to these kinds of questions on the mac forum

Good luck

sory mate. here is exactly what you need.
The driver: http://www.epson.co.uk/Store/Printers-and-All-in-Ones/Epson-Stylus-SX515W/Drivers-Support?target=driver&languageId=1&driverId=325313&defaultOSId=15&DRV_CATEGORY_CODE=DRV

the driver is let's say a language that makes your computer compatible with certain devices. Like a translator.
