Printer - amusing one this

This is pretty amusing, if not annoying! I rebuilt PC, tried installing printer last night and when you go to "printing preferences" (Epson) all of it is in Spanish!

Tried uninstalling everything, and rebooting - checked regional and language settings in the control panel, all in English... Reinstalled printer drivers, and the same thing happened! Also tried downloading latest drivers from Epson.

Does anyone PLEASE know how to fix this?! I don't particularly want to learn Spanish! lol

You know the original drivers, were they on a CD? Just for my Canon I have two CD's and one has english drivers, the other are foreign. Perhaps this is what has happened. Although, you've downloaded them from Epson and still it happens.... hmmmm confusing!

wanna hear some funny from me? same thing happened to me when i used the driver CD i got spanish, no matter *** i did it would auto switch to spainish LOL

any ways i did get it to english but i had to press cancel when it asked for installing drivers each time i turned printer on. best thing is to remove any epsion drivers from C: n reg.

i did try uninstalling from within device manager, then with add/remove, then i deleted the whole epson program files folder, but when i installed again i got the same thing.... thinking perhaps i missed something
