I suspect you're not getting one from Epson, you may want to try 
Gimp-print drivers.

Installing a printer

2005-02-21 Thread mlh/home
So, I have the OS X drivers for my Canon i470D printer.
My printer is available via the network as it is attached to a print 
server device. I install the printer drivers on my G4 iBook by running 
the installation file. I try to add the new printer and the one I have 
is not on the list of Canon printers.

How do I add this printer?

What is the print server device running as the operating system? Windows?
Unix? You can't add a printer shared by a server as if it was a local
printer, because it's not local to your Macintosh. So, you have to find
another way, and this depends on the kind of print server...

creationism n.: The (false) belief that large, innovative software designs
can be completely specified in advance and then painlessly magicked out of
the void by the normal efforts of a team of normally talented programmers.
In fact, experience has shown repeatedly that good designs arise only from
evolutionary, exploratory interaction between one (or at most a small
handful of) exceptionally able designer(s) and an active user population --
and that the first try at a big new idea is always wrong. Unfortunately,
because these truths don't fit the planning models beloved of management,
they are generally ignored.
