Hi Mark: The Epson Stylus C20UX is fully supported according to LinuxPrinting.org:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-Stylus_C20UX Use the gimp print drivre they suggest at that URL. That means that you can use CUPS and Gimp Print in FreeBSD. 1) Install cups and gimp print (in /usr/ports/print) 2) cd (as root i.e. #) to /usr/local/etc/rc.d and copy the cups.sh.sample to cups.sh 3) Make sure that cups.sh is executable. 4) do: # ./cups.sh start 5) now that the cups daemon is started do: # lynx http://localhost:631/admin (you can also do this from a user account using a regular browser). In both cases you will have to log into root. The web browser will pop up a login. 6) You can now add a new printer through your browser. See the screenshots here for an example: http://www.silbsd.org/CUPS-NetBSD_landscape.html I know this is for NetBSD but from step 5 to 15 it's the same on FreeBSD. As for the USB part, that is handled during the web browser configuration.
