I have an Epson RX620 all-in-one, which works fine on my Suse 9.3 x86-64 system thanks to Johannes' help last year. I recently installed Suse 10.2 x86-64 and now it doesn't work :(
PRINTER
It seems to have recognized the printer - YaST and CUPS have an entry for it and say "Epson Stylus Photo RX620 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.0 Simplified". But I can't print anything to it. If I try - e.g. using the test facilty in YaST - nothing happens at the printer (no flashing light). CUPS says it is "Printer State: processing, accepting jobs, published." but also says " stylusphotorx620 (Default Printer) "Printer not connected; will retry in 30 seconds...". I've tried stopping and restarting the printer with no effect.
I had a similar problem with my C84. I could use the parallel port for the older computer, but he USB quit working with the laptop. Powering the printer on/off from the control panel did not clear it. I had to actually unplug the printer and plug it back in to reset the USB. Since you can't talk to it on the USB port, you might be having a similar problem.
