In Feisty it makes no sense (at this moment) to install the 3rd party 
gutenprint package since it is included already as cupsys-driver-gutenprint and 
even the same version 5.0.0.99.1.

Another person has reported the same problem in bug #111320 even without
the 3rd party gutenprint package installed. So let us try to get it
working first on a default Ubuntu installation without 3rd party
packages.

Please make sure the 3rd party gutenprint package has been removed, then
reinstall the default feisty cupsys-driver-gutenprint package with these
commands:

$ sudo dpkg --purge --force-all gutenprint
$ sudo dpkg --purge --force-all cupsys-driver-gutenprint

followed by a:

$ sudo apt-get install cupsys-driver-gutenprint

Running the following command should return the gutenprint drivers for your 
Epson Stylus CX3600 printer:
$ /usr/lib/cups/driver/gutenprint.5.0 list | grep CX3600
"gutenprint.5.0://escp2-cx3600/expert/C" en "Epson" "Epson Stylus CX3600 - 
CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.0.99.1" ""
"gutenprint.5.0://escp2-cx3600/simple/C" en "Epson" "Epson Stylus CX3600 - 
CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.0.99.1 Simplified" ""

And running this command should output the PPD file:
$ /usr/lib/cups/driver/gutenprint.5.0 cat 
'gutenprint.5.0://escp2-cx3600/simple/C'

Run this command to find out the drivers for your Epson Stylus CX3600 known to 
CUPS (may take a while):
$ lpinfo -m | grep CX3600
gutenprint.5.0://escp2-cx3600/expert/C Epson Stylus CX3600 - CUPS+Gutenprint 
v5.0.0.99.1
gutenprint.5.0://escp2-cx3600/simple/C Epson Stylus CX3600 - CUPS+Gutenprint 
v5.0.0.99.1 Simplified

Output shown is from my feisty system, what is the output of the above
commands on your system?
