The utility is called escputil, see 
http://packages.debian.org/testing/utils/escputil

though it appeared in my Breezy by default.  Under the KDE Printer manager > 
Printers tab you get the chance to select 'Printer Tools > EPSON Inkjet'.  
This looks like a gui frontend for the same utility.  Not that I can get it 
to work.  I'd be interested in hearing how you get on with it.

I am still assuming it is just me that is having this fight with Ubuntu.
