Help needed with Printing via Epson Stylus Photo R800

807559Jul 30 2008 — edited Jul 30 2008

Hello

I am trying to get an Epson Stylus Photo R800 printer installed on Solaris 10. The printer is a USB printer connected to a wireless Print Server on a wireless LAN. Two other PCs running VISTA and Linux Arch can print to the printer so no probs there.

I'm not sure how to go about installing the printer on Solaris. On Linux I used CUPS+foomatic+gutenprint+a2ps which provided end-2-end support using PPD files.

Gutenprint is a linux package, not available for solaris so far as I can determine.

I guess I need a CUPS PPD file ??

Dont know where to start. Can find much on google other than a hit to the open printing site which gives links to linux packages, not solaris.

Any ideas?
