Just to say how I'm getting on after all the help from Stuart et al. The port to install the escpr ppd files works like a charm.
$ cupstestppd /usr/local/share/ppd/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr/*SX200* < /usr/local/share/ppd/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr/Epson-Stylus_SX200-epson-escpr-en.ppd: PASS WARN Size "TA4" should be the Adobe standard name "A4.Fullbleed". WARN Size "4X6FULL" should be the Adobe standard name "4x6". WARN Size "T4X6FULL" should be the Adobe standard name "4x6.Fullbleed". Following the indications in cups package readme the browser tool finds the usb printer automatically and pointing it at the ppd file configures it no problem. $ lsusb Bus 000 Device 003: ID 04b8:0849 Seiko Epson Corp. Stylus SX205 $ sudo chown _cups /dev/ugen0.* /dev/usb0 $ sudo /etc/rc.d/cupsd restart When I restart cups try to print a test page and it seems the printer is not ready. $ lpq sx205 is not ready Rank Owner Job File(s) Total Size 1st moss 1 Test Page 1024 bytes Looking at dmesg (attached) I'm wondering how I set about ulpt in the kernel. Do I have to recompile it maybe? I'll crack on anyhow. Thanks Maurice
