This is the ubuntu download pkg

This escpr pkg exists in AUR as a link but it had a broken link in it
The escpr2 pkg does not include this printer but its links are reported to have changed too.
On the EPSON site if you search by printer model it says there is no support for it, but on the above the printer and its siblings exist.

Trying just the ppd from that debian pkg couldn't get the printer working. Its copy function works, so mechanically it is as good as a new printer. It has driven me nuts all day :)
