I've got an Epson Stylus Color 900 which works perfectly with CUPS 
(gimp-print driver) both on the FC1 computer that the printer is 
connected to and over the network from other FC1 computers.  The FC1s 
are as per the CDs, no updates. Have you still got the original kernel 
installed? If so, it may be worth trying with that.
