I've recently installed Mepis 3.3 and when I go to printer setup it shows my Epson C86 printer on the list but when you go to setup it says that there no driver for the Epson C86. Why would it be on the list? Any fixes for this?

Thank you.

epson C86 setup

Dave,
Use synaptic or Kpackage and update "foomatic-db-gimp-print" this is a group of printer drivers for linux. Also update "cupsys". Then try again. I have same printer and use epsonC84 gimp-print driver fine.
