I bought an Epson 300 some months ago to print labels on Debian 
cd/dvd's. I had no problem using it with gimp-print/cups and printing 
documents, using Debian testing versions. I was waiting for Sarge to 
get released before figuring out how to do the label part. 

Gimp-Print beta 3 had support, at the time, for cd labeling, beta 4 is 
now Gutenprint and I haven't revisited the issue, but it is 'supposed' 
to work for cd labels. I am waiting for a .deb package though, if 
anyone knows more about Debian Gutenprint, any info would be 
appreciated.
