Epson print drivers #1948

Closed chrysophylax closed 4 years ago

Official package name: epson-escpr (?)

License (must be an OSI approved Open Source license): GPL v3

Download URL of latest release: http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/du/02/DriverDownloadInfo.do?LG2=EN&CN2=&DSCMI=104918&DSCCHK=f4af1a8de19da08e2e1da28e9fbddefc949c9eed#

Latest release date (must be recent): 12-26-2019

Description: Printer configuration drivers and C filter program for CUPS

Would add support for a large portion of SEIKO Epson printers that are currently not supported in ClearLinux (e.g. Ecotank ET-7x series).

Comes with rpm, deb, tar.gz source and instructions for building on non-LSB compliant distributions. Note that building by default using --prefix=/usr/local leads to CUPS trying to find the filter program in /usr/lib/cups/filter and failing instead of searching where make install chucks it (/usr/local/lib/cups/filter).
