CUPS has set up a que for your Epson C70 printer but it's not being addressed 
properly.

Is this a network at your home or at your work?  
If it's at home, are you trying to print to the printer at home or at work?
Please show contents of etc/cups/printers.conf, etc/hosts, etc/hosts/allow and
    etc/hosts/deny
