You need to install the drivers for the printer. This can be found on the Epson website.
Please go to:
Epson Linux Printer Search or Epson Linux Driver Support.- Search for the
Epson L220
printer.
- Click on the download link.
- Click on the accept link at the bottom of the page to say you agree to the terms.
- Click on the download button for your distro
- You will need the files that end with
amd64.deb
- You will need the files that end with
- Make sure you do this for all the files available in step 3 above.
Install the
.deb
package files with your favourite package manager, e. g. GDebi or Software Center (Ubuntu 16.04 or later only) or on the command-line:
sudo dpkg -i /path/to/pacakge.deb ...
sudo apt install -f
As a side note, the best way to find if a printer is compatible is to search OpenPrinting.org. I found the Epson L220 printer there, and saw that it was compatible. I then searched for the recommended driver on Google which pointed me to the Epson Linux Driver website.

Connect to internet, then add the printer in System Settings -> Printers.
The driver should be downloaded automatically.
If it does not, post a comment. I will tell you how to install it manually.
