OS 26.1 Tahoe: Cannot find Epson or Brother scanners

OS 26.1 Tahoe only: Cannot find Epson or Brother scanners. I open System Settings>printers and scanners>click on either Epson or Brother printer, but no provision to click on scanner. Both have used Air Print in the past by home WiFi network. Brother MFC-L2740DW series; EPSON ET-2850 Series.

MacBook Pro (M4, 2024)

Do they show up in Applications > Image Capture? If not, delete and re-add the printers.

You can also reset the printing system (which will delete the printers, again if needed, and allow you to start with a clean slate).
