Please, what does "I can't get to use" mean?  Error messages?  Log
entries?  See /var/log for the latter.

Here's my /etc/printcap for an Epson Stylus Photo 900:

lp0|To Your Left: \
    :lp=/dev/lp0: \
    :force_localhost: \
    :if=/usr/bin/foomatic-rip: \
    :ppd=/usr/local/ppd/Epson-Stylus_Photo_870-Stp870p.upp.ppd: \
    :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp: \
    :mx#0:sh:

It's not rocket science, once you find the ppd that matches your
printer closely enough, but I think print quality may be app
specific.  CUPS or foomatic config may do that for you.

I've used the hp and dj filters in the past, but that was a long time
ago, sorry.
