Today, printers are integrated into a more multifunctional character to do more tasks such as scanning and faxing from the same device.

Like all hardware components, on certain occasions, we can find ourselves faced with various Epson printer errors that affect the optimal and ideal functioning of the printer, and one of the most common is the error code 0x97 on your Epson printer that prevents the printing process from running.
