Go to: http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/search/01/search/searchModule

Drivers for your scanner, including network drivers are found here, in 
.deb format for your Ubuntu system. (They're also there in .rpm format 
and others.)
After you select one of the drivers, it will ask you to accept some bs 
and then it will go to the download. Pick the one(s) you need and go.

If you're coming from Google instead of the url I show above, you should 
put in Epson printer (or scanner) driver, Linux.
Then select Epson Linux Download Center, NOT Avast. (Avast got out of 
that business several years ago.)

The printer drivers work fine also, if you need them.
