Can't print in fast / draft when connected to printer over wifi, but can when connected via usb
Update and step-by-step directions:
On the latest versions of OSX (e.g. tested with High Sierra, 10.13.2) there is a seemingly handy option to add &quot;nearby printer&quot; which lists printers the OS can auto-locate. The problem is that this option defaults to using airprint and never gives the option to change the print driver with the &quot;use&quot; drop down.
To fix this (see also this Epson-focussed exchange on Apple Communities), reinstall the printer using the printer-specific driver:

Open Printers &amp; Scanners in System Preferences.
Select the Printer with the troublesome airprint driver
Press the minus sign, &quot;-,&quot; at the bottom to remove the current printer
Press the plus sign, &quot;+,&quot; to add a new printer
Don't select from the nearby list, but rather select &quot;Other&quot;
The printer should still appear on the list in the resulting dialog. Select it, but before pressing add, access the &quot;Use&quot; drop down to select the corresponding printer driver. If your printer type is not listed below AirPrint, see if it is listed under &quot;Select Software...&quot; If it is still not there, you might need to download an updated driver from your printer manufacturers website.
Once you have the corresponding driver selected in &quot;Use&quot; press the &quot;Add&quot; button.

This should now use the manufacturer customized printer dialog including the option to select &quot;Fast&quot; for &quot;Print Quality&quot; under the &quot;Quality and Media&quot; option set.
