I think there is a bug, and I didn't report it. :(
I was using this, originally, to setup the printer:
sudo foomatic-configure -s cups -n epson -N "Epson Stylus CX3810" -L
"Office" -c /dev/usb/lp0 -d gutenprint-ijs-simplified.5.0 -p
Epson-Stylus_CX3810
But, each time I did that, I'd get this error:
Cannot read
file /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/driver/gutenprint-ijs-simplified.5.0.xml!
Driver
file /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/driver/gutenprint-ijs-simplified.5.0.xml corrupted, missing, or not readable!
Could not run "foomatic-combo-xml"/"foomatic-perl-data"!
at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/Foomatic/DB.pm line 572.
I made sure the PC in question was fully updated - still got the error.
I had to install gutenprint from source in order to use the printer.
I'm actually surprised no one else has reported this. I don't think
it's isolated to just me. I've seen this on an older and fresh
installs.
