I have an epson l120 printer and have installed it successfully. It prints test pages using epson utility app and nozzle checks are fine. When I try to print a pdf or document file my printer doesnt do anything but my laptop says that printing is done.

Most of these problems are because your laptop does not have the corrent / no driver
I assume this is correct: https://www.epson.com.ph/Support/Printers/Ink-Tank-Printers/L-Series/Epson-L120/s/SPT_C11CD76401?review-filter=Mac+OS+X+10.11.x
Choose Linux (maybe this link works)...
Download the latest deb file and once downloaded write: sudo apt install ./downloads/*.deb # you might want to replace the *
If already installed try to reconfigure the printer (remove it out of the list and add again, make sure it doesn't add automatically. You might have 2 printers then, just use this one you have set up byself)

make sure you enable this driver for the printer (or reconfigure the printer might help)– france1Aug 28, 2021 at 10:24
