Re: Printing Problem

I am desperately in need of some help here. Over the past week I have
been completely unsuccesful in getting my printer to cooperate. I have
an Epson Stylus Color 400 connected to a Pentium Pro 200 running Debian
Woody. Ultimately I need this printer available over my small home
network.
I have tried practically every tutorial and howto that I have been able
to find. I have tried using Foomatic, PDQ and printtool with no
success. I have visited linuxprinting.org and downloaded the various
automatically generated driver files and nothing works. Every time I go
to print I get garbage (since my cheap inkjet apparently does not speak
post script).
What I need at this point is a step-by-step that contains all the info
(unlike the situation with foomatic/linuxprinting where each one refers
to the user to the other document for more info). I would really
appreciate some help with this very frustrating problem. I am typically
quite savvy with computers and have little trouble resolving difficult
issues, but this has really thrown me for a loop.
Can you print locally from the PC? My epson stylus 400 color works well
with CUPS. CUPS happens to come with a printer driver for the stylus 400.
