Hai
I've just installed a new printer : Epson L100, but I can't find any linux driver suitable for this printing machine. I've tried to see openprinting, but no luck so far..
My question :
1. Is this printer already supported in Linux (especially Ubuntu) ?
2. Anyone know some alternatives for printing driver ?
If you need more info regarding this printer, I'm happy to help.
You can see this printer here :

In the meantime, I've done the 'lsusb -v' command and the result:

SOLUTION
For Epson L100
Please download the following driver :
Disconnect the Epson L100 / L200 USB printer cable, install the driver, then connect the cable -> push start button
It will try to search the driver but no luck, just "cancel" it.
Then in "Choose Driver", make sure you tick the "Select printer form database"
choose [Epson] -> [Stylus N10 N11] -> [Forward] -> [Apply] -> give any names if necessary. Done.
For Epson 200
Same as the above for L100, with additional files for scanning to download i.e. :
the data
and the core
Install it and restart Ubuntu
You can print and scan now ... For scanning, just use xsane or any other scan s/w.
note:for the core files, you have to make sure, what types of processor (CPU) you're running and Ubuntu version.
Please go to this site :
http://www.avasys.jp/lx-bin2/linux_e/spc/DL1.do to change (just scroll down the page until you see "L200", tick it and choose whatever Linux and its version). My system now running Ubuntu 9.04 with 32bit Intel-based CPU
That's all, hope it help.
