When I was running Debian Potato on my box, I used lprng and magicfilter on my Epson Stylus Colour 640, and they seemed to work quite well together. I had problems with the bog standard lpd however. I suggest you try wiping your printcap file, installing magicfilter and lprng, and also possibly Printtool if you have a fetish for GUI admin tools (magicfilter-config seems to do its job quite well though). Good luck Adam James -- Beware the one behind you.
