Extracting PPDs from Windows/Mac drivers does not work for non- PostScript printers, as the drivers also contain proprietary filters.
If Epson does not provide Linux drivers for this model, as they do for many other printers, you are out of luck. Another possibility to get your printer to work is to check whether it allows driverless printing. In this case a print queue would get automatically set up in Ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty). This is usually only available on very recent models with network (Ethernet or WiFi) support. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to cups in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1696876 Title: Epson Stylus Photo 1390 driver missing in CUPS Status in CUPS: New Status in Gutenprint: New Status in cups package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in gutenprint package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I have a Epson Stylus Photo 1390 printer and I installed Ubuntu, CUPS, cups-driver-gutenprint, but still no PPD for this printer.
