Epson ET-2800 driver

Ventura OS, MacbookPro 2019, Epson ET-2800 printer. I downloaded the driver from Epson, making sure to download the new Ventura driver, but when I check the version under the printer system settings, the version shows as 3.0. I have removed all Epson software and the printer times, restarted my laptop, and the version still won’t update. I’m using this printer for sublimation and right now the quality is awful, as is Epson support (which is pretty much nonexistent). I’m coming here to see if anyone can help. Thanks!
