Mine is the same model, although I use epson-inkjet-printer-escpr instead of epson-inkjet-printer-escpr2. When I searched for the difference apparently the original is fully open source whereas the second one has some proprietary components (which Fedora replaces with the equivalent open components from the original). I do remember that when I tried to print from the printer without installing the driver first, it selected a random HP printer driver (likely from Gutenprint or some other place with generic drivers) and it printed just the command sent to the printer. IMHO, even if the driver is dropped from the repos (unlikely to happen), Epson has the driver on their website in both deb and rpm formats, it will just be a slightly worse experience But I got no info on whether it supports CUPS IPP =/. > > On 10/12/2024 16:07, Paul Maconi, Jr. wrote: > > I just recently got an Epson ET-2400, and I didn't need a driver to > > print.
