Does it look like the one on this page:

It's about twice the width, but I imagine that's a generic photo, possibly of the 390. Mine is an Elite, as opposed to a Turbo. Not sure of the differences.

If so, according to that page it supports the Epson ESC/P2 command set.
I had a quick google search and found this PDF:

Looks like these printers below support ESC/P2

You're bound to find a CUPS driver for one of them.  If all else fails
try the Epson LX-80 driver and see if that does anything.

Thanks.

Now, does anyone know how to make CUPS see the damned LPT1 port? All GNOME lists is SCSI and serial...
