Hi,
I'm running evolution 1.0 under KDE, using CUPS, and in the print dialog
I just leave it "lpr" or maybe in your case try "lpr -PEpson". I just
set up the CUPS printer as the default printer in the KDE control center
(System -> Printing Manager) and now it just "works" ... no problems (at
least not with printing!) ... it prints quite nicely, in fact.
cups installs an lpr command in /usr/bin which is a link to a link that
points to lpr-cups (/usr/bin/lpr -> /etc/alternatives/lpr ->
/usr/bin/lpr-cups) ... which is compatible with the old-school lpr but
is actually cups nonetheless.
hope that works for you, too!

I replace "lpr" with "xpp" whenever a requester has lpr in it. There's
always an extra click after that, but xpp has always worked.

Steve Balmer, CEO of Microsoft�, recently referred to Linux as a cancer.
Unsuprisingly, this is incorrect - Linux was released on August 25th,
1991,
and is therefore a virgo.
