 > To make it working, you need to download the epson driver from :

 >
 > You need to install a linux_base from the ports collection,
 > emulators section:
 > I have tested linux_base-rh-9 for now.
 > untar the filter.
 > cd to the directory.
 > and
 > make install.

 > If you have a ALC-3000N you must configure the setup of the machine:
 > read the admin guide for this. you can reach the printer
 > by telnet:
 > telnet 192.168.192.168
 > or:
 > telnet 192.168.169.254
 > default possible addresses,
 > or by dhcp.
 >
 > Edit the /usr/local/etc/epkowa/alc300/option.conf appropriately.
 >
 > change the first line of /usr/local/bin/alc3000_lprwrapper.sh with:
 > #!/usr/local/bin/bash (not #!/bin/sh).
 > and possibly comment the line:
 > #cmd="$tee0 $sizeadjust $filtercmd"
 > and copy it like this:
 > cmd="$tee0 $filtercmd"
 >
 > Install the printer in the /etc/printcap file.
