I managed to print to a Epson Stylus Color 850 from Jaguar, but also not by using a USB-serial adapter. I bought on eBay a LocalTalk network adapter for the Stylus Color 500 and a LocalTalk-Ethernet bridge box. This, plus the Epson standard network print driver, gave me a network printer accessible to all ethernet equipped Macs. Having said that, the speed of the SC850 was not stellar and it has now been consigned to the inkjet recycling centre in the sky, leaving me with the Epson network i/f and a spare LocalTalk-Ethernet bridge.
