Hi CRootsFood,

 

It would be helpful to have more info - i.e., Model Number of the Epson Printer and which Square Stand as there are different versions.  That would us a place to start.  Note, the Community is not the same as Tech or Customer Support however, there is quite a bit of experience here.

@CRootsFood ;

Since you already ran an ethernet cable the distance, I would suggest a Network to USB print server.  Something similar to :

https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Networking-USB-Print-Server  

Basically it makes your USB printer attached to a Network, this one is wireless so it should easily work for your situation.

 

I used a Wired printserver from Netgear to make my regular HP or Epson printer network capable a long time before all these wireless printers were readily available.
