Why does my Epson Stylus Photo 2100 / 2200 show a Model Difference error?
- K
  Kayla ClarkAug 14, 2025
  A Model Difference error on your Epson Printer indicates a mismatch between the printer driver and the product. Ensure the printer driver corresponds to your printer model. It may also indicate that the EEPROM E0 area data differs from the specifications; verify this data against the specifications.
