** Description changed: My Epson WF-2670 Network printer is having issues printing correctly on Ubuntu. It prints differently depending on what protocol i use, and what configuration i use. The only configuration that gets it right, is the Driverless IPP printing on Ubuntu 18.04. However using the same Driverless Printing option in Ubuntu 18.10 dose not work properly. When printing the text runs off the side of the page. The printer supports PPD, LDP, IPP, and DNS printing. There is no specific driver for this printer in the repos. There is an official driver on the Epson Website for this printer however it's unmaintained and out of date. As a result it doesn't work. Instead When choosing a setup option in Ubuntu (or any other distro) it automatically selects the generic epson-escpr inkjet Driver. This driver will print. But again, it prints incorrectly with the text going off the side of the page. The driverless IPP printing in Ubuntu 18.04 gets it right. But in 18.10 the same exact configuration prints incorrectly. All other protocols i mentioned all print the same on both versions of Ubuntu, all of which are equally incorrect. Driverless IPP printing in 18.04 is the only one that dose it correctly. This problem locks me to 18.04. Which isn't an immediate problem, But probably will be in the long term. I've included a picture of some test prints. Both are from Ubuntu 18.10. The one on the left is using the epson-escpr Driver using the LDP/passthru option. And the one on the right is using the Default Driverless Printing. You can see the text going off the side of the page on both, and off the bottom of the page on the one on the right. Whatever configuration/package version is being used in Ubuntu 18.04 for Driverless Printing works properly. But in - 18.10 it dose Not. Nor do any of the other configuration Options. + 18.10 it dose Not. Nor do any of the other configuration Options.
