[DM-MUG] Epson 740 on an Airport base station

[Matt W]

Make sure you've got the most recent drivers on your Mac, try the CUPS 
drivers, repair permissions and test with another printer if you can 
borrow one to eliminate the 740 or drivers from the equation.

I had a lot of problems with the 740 wirelessly. It would frequently 
lose connection before the print was completed and that job would have 
to be restarted. I've had better luck with newer printers so it could 
just be that particular printer driver. I'm not a big fan of wireless 
printing overall.
