Unsupported: Epson Photo R360

[Rich Lott]

I looked on http://openprinting.org/ before buying this printer, which was 
reported to work "Mostly". Turns out I didn't spot the fact that this 
information was not verified, and seems to be completely wrong.

Whenever I send anything to print (eg. the test page that CUPS makes) the 
printer immediately (i.e. even before gutenprint has finished processing the 
file) starts feeding pages through and doesn't stop, not even if you press 
the red "Stop/Clear" button on the printer.

Has anyone else got this printer and did you get it working?

Any help much appreciated.

thanks,
rich

I've tried the following drivers for R300 and R340 (nearest matches):

- CUPS + Gutenprint v5.0.0
Foomatic/Gutenprint-ijs-simplified 5.0
Foomatic/Gutenprint-ijs 5.0

All exibit the same behaviour.
