I got an epson c86 ( free after rebate ).  ubuntu doens't like it.

Here is what LinuxPrinting.org has to say about it:

Looks like you have to treat it like a C82 if you have Gimp-Print 4.2.2
or better.  There is another note on that page saying you can treat it
as a C84 and everything will work right.


been there, tried that. I've tried all of the epsons, with same result. It
looks like an error in foomatic debian package ( ppd isn't generated).

interestingly, there is a driver in type 'ESP' that outputs to the printer
in 300dpi, but only garbage is printered out.

If somebody already has a ppd file, I can try that.  Maybe somebody can
generate one on 5.04 and send it to me.
