Same as gdebi, most likely. That lsb package doesn't exist any more.
That ancient driver package will not be installable without the
slightly less ancient lsb package, and even if you COULD get it to
install, I have no idea whether it would even work.

By the way, my third Google result for CUPS epson L355 is a PPD
file at <https://github.com/endlessm/epson-inkjet-printer/blob/master/201207w/ppds/EPSON_L355.ppd>.
There should be some way to provide this PPD file to CUPS for your
printer, but I'm *really* not a printer expert.
Hmm, that 201207w in the URL is familiar-looking, isn't it. Maybe the PPD
file came out of that ancient driver package.
