I looked for ET-2810 information on Epson's US website, but though it
claimed 47 matches for ET-2810 under support, the model was not there.

I found the model listed on this website:

  https://www.ldlc.com/en/product/PB00463030.html

and under Overview, it says "Key features: [ … ] Mobile and
cloud-based printing services: Epson Connect (iPrint, Email Print,
Remote Print Driver, Scan-to-Cloud), Apple AirPrint,
Google Cloud Print)"

However, under Specifications, it says "Mobile printing:
  Smartphone compatible Yes
  Google Cloud Print No"
and no mention of AirPrint. I have no idea what
"Smartphone compatible" means, and have never heard of
Epson Connect.

I then looked at the Epson UK website (I didn't know whether European
sites would be in English):

 https://www.epson.co.uk/en_GB/products/printers/inkjet/consumer/ecotank-et-2810/p/30169#tech-specs

and I don't see any mention of AirPrint, just a list of Mac/Windows
OSes, and Epson Smart Panel App and Epson Connect (Email Print,
Remote Print Driver), whatever they are.

All this would lead me to give credence to the views expressed at:

  https://www.reddit.com/r/Epson/comments/11njqgh/airprint_not_working_et2810/

Cheers,
David.
