 installing the networked printer. It was detected kinda okay. Had to 
 select make and model (Epson Stylus 785) but it won't print thet test 
 page, either.

From this page, I gathered that printing on the Canon BJC-2100 can be
really really slow. Try leaving for up to ten minutes to see how well
things go, and of course, check your ELMP (Errors, Log Files, Man(ual)
pages, and Permissions).

How is the Epson Stylus connected? Is it connected to a windows
computer, ethernet, or through CUPs on a unix box?

The only fallacy is the inaction on our part to stave off the worst of 
horrors, the stripping of personal freedom.
