Hello,

Not sure it helps any, but I am using FC4 with an Epson C42UX (usb), I
think that's what it is, at home. It does work, although can be a bit
tempermental sometimes. I configured it through the KDE menu's, 'system
tools' if I remember. However, using the command-line command
'system-config-printer' worked as well.
