The following error displayed by epson-printer-utility can be safely ignored. I don't know what is the cause, but is doesn't affect usability: Unable to load library icui18n "Cannot load library icui18n: (icui18n: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)"

If you get the error Communication daemon down, Error code = -1, you have to start the ecbd service. You can either do that with sudo systemctl enable --now ecbd.service if you want the serice to run at system startup or with sudo systemctl start ecbd.service if you only want to start the service manually each time you use epson-printer-utility

Here is my attempt at packaging 1.2.2: https://gist.github.com/vitaliikuzhdin/c215da9f0196e5a3b86a8c07fbe24369

A few notes:

  1. Epson drivers are no longer provided or licensed by Avasys.

  2. LSB is no longer a dependency.

  3. The last version of the source code was only published for 1.1.3, so we install the binaries from the .deb package.

outdated since 2025-01-08; current epson version is 1.1.3 but was published on 2025-01-22

Can somebody make it recognize a wireless printer? Because when I open the program,all the options are grayed out,it says "Printer not found" and when I click the "change printer" option it doesnt show anything more than a blank emergent window

1.1.3-1 seems to not require lsb anymore, according to ldd and this page: https://support.epson.net/linux/Printer/LSB_distribution_pages/en/utility.php with an implication at the bottom that only an older version is lsb dependent

Seems this error message can be ignored too. Does not effect usability. QSocketNotifier: Can only be used with threads started with QThread

@mive thanks for letting me know. It seems that's what they have on their site: https://download.ebz.epson.net/man/linux/utility.html#sec7-1

mive commented on 2023-09-03 19:35 (UTC)

It would seem the latest version uses Qt5, so qt4 can be removed as a dependency.
Truncated output of ldd /usr/bin/epson-printer-utility: 

libQt5Core.so.5 => /usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5 (0x00007f24a2800000)
libQt5Gui.so.5 => /usr/lib/libQt5Gui.so.5 (0x00007f24a2000000)
libQt5Widgets.so.5 => /usr/lib/libQt5Widgets.so.5 (0x00007f24a1800000)

Current version on the Epson Download site as of today is 1.1.2-1.

@Un1Gfn thanks, will work on it. Will probably go with option b, on this one.
