What I can see so far on www.openprinting.org is that Epson offers Linux BLOB drivers, wrapped as RPM or Debian DEB packages. There is no mentioning of FreeBSD or any other UNIXiod OS but Linux. It is also mentioned on the www.sane-project.org website, that this specific printer's scanner is working with Xsane/sane front- and backend, but it is, again, Linux via the binary, non-free/open driver. My question is whether I have a chance to get this printer run on FreeBSD as well. I intend to attach the printer as a network printer via a FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT CUPS 1.5.2 server. Any advice or suggestion will be appreciated. Oliver P.S.
