Epson XP-202

#1 Post by moog »

Hi I've just installed Xenialpup 7.5ce
I'm trying to get my printer to work.
It is an Epson XP-202
I have installed the file
epson-inkjet-printer-201202w_1.0.0-1lsb3.2_amd64.deb
which gives me the right option on cups but when i try to print a test page i get an error stopped "filter failed"
I've added some screen shots below

There is a special thing to run for Epson printers called eppi.

See here:

It takes a bit of fiddling, but I have used it with success.
