Hi, I've got an Epson DX4400 All in One. Everything works on it, the scanner works (with the Epson drivers) and the printer works with the gutenprint drivers.
The only thing I can't do is monitor the ink level. As it's got 4 cartridges that's a bit of a problem. I have installes escputil and a front-end, stylus toolbox. However, stylus toolbox fails because of read/write issues to /dev/usb/lp0 even when run as root. And whenever I try escputil via the command line I get the error message in the title.
Escputil is stated to work with all Epson printers that work with the Gutenprint drivers so I suspect that if I can only connect to the printer it may work. For further info, the output of lsusb is as follows
Any pointers will be most welcome!
Thanks
ian
