With every release I update the keywords (see Package Details above) containing a list of all Epson printer series supported by this driver. Additionally, SUPPORTED-PRINTERS at the GitLab repository gitlab.com/at.gentoo.repo/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr2 also contains a list of supported printers.

Most Epson Inkjet printers are covered by either this package or epson-inkjet-printer-escpr. If your printer is not supported by this package, be sure to check the other one. You may also want to consult the Wiki, specifically CUPS and CUPS/Printer-specific problems#Epson.

Note: all packages from AUR require base-devel, please read Arch User Repository as a user or PKGBUILD#makedepends for details on PKGBUILD.

I had a similar issue with my ET-2750 on Linux Mint where the paper just passed straight through without trying to print anything. Running dmesg didn't show any errors, though. I resolved it by unzipping the PPD file (in my case: Epson-ET-2750_Series-epson-inkjet-printer-escpr2.ppd.gz) and deleting line 32 which says "*ESCPRCompression: 3, 16". I don't know what this line was supposed to do, but the printer seems to work fine now without it.

This is an issue with the package. Printing with this driver creates a segfault on 64 bit systems (check dmesg to see) because of some sloppy C code in the Epson driver. It needs a patch as the other driver epson-inkjet-printer-escpr got, but I lack the skills in C to do it myself.

I don't understand though how you made it work with the epson-inkjet-printer-escpr driver because it does not actually include a PPD for the ET-4750.

I just wanted to report that I had issues with the ppd for the ET 4750. The printer instantly said "cancelling" and printed nothing/a blank page. I tried over IPP/IPPS and RAW(Port 9100). I installed the epson-inkjet-printer-escpr package and am using the ET 4550 driver without any issues for now - until this is fixed. I understand that this may not be an issue with this package but with the upstream sources, however, I thought it was worth reporting here in case anyone else needs a workaround or runs into a similar issues.
