I managed to work around this by doing the following:

Go to the URL in your jockey.log file:

e.g. http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/op/stable/debian/dists/lsb3.2
/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr/

Find the appropriate binary (i386 or amd64):

e.g. http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/op/stable/debian/dists/lsb3.2
/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr/binary-amd64/epson-inkjet-printer-
escpr_1.2.0-1lsb3.2_amd64.deb.

Go to the terminal and download to an appropriate location and install
manually (as follows):

cd ~/Downloads
wget -c 
http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/op/stable/debian/dists/lsb3.2/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr/binary-amd64/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr_1.2.0-1lsb3.2_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i epson-inkjet-printer-escpr_1.2.0-1lsb3.2_amd64.deb

This will flag up some unmet dependencies, namely the lsb package.
Simply do the following:

sudo apt-get -f install
sudo dpkg -i epson-inkjet-printer-escpr_1.2.0-1lsb3.2_amd64.deb

This should get the printer working whilst this problem is sorted for
automatic installation.
