I'm assuming it was working fine then stopped. Try some of 
these VooDoo methods:

1)Your'e on a Mac I seem to remember so first zap the pram 
three times in a row. If not try:

2) Pull out the usb cable with the printer on. Then turn off printer, 
wait 30 seconds plug usb cable in then turn printer on.

3) Turn off printer and  pull usb and restart. After restart plug 
printer in and turn on power.

You can do variations of the above - I know it's sound funny but it 
does work. The printer and/or usb needs to be reset .

Don't know who makes your usb adapter but Epson makes the 
best one if that is any help!
