Epson XP700 All-in-One and Linux drivers

[Peter Hillier-Brook]

Hello lists,

does anyone have any thoughts regarding suitable drivers (both printer 
and scanner) for the Epson XP700? I've performed a few searches and 
turned up zero results.

A friend unfortunately bought the device before asking for advice and 
the only option I can see presently is for it to be returned as "not fit 
for purpose", although I'm not hopeful for success as Linux was not 
specified at the point of sale.

Many thanks for any thoughts.

Peter HB
