Description of problem: It looks like the current release of epson-inkjet-printer-escpr does not support the printer WF-C5710. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): epson-inkjet-printer-escpr-1.6.41-1.1lsb3.2.fc30.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpm -ql epson-inkjet-printer-escpr | grep 5710 2. 3. Actual results: returns no driver Expected results: Seeing the driver file Additional info: Searching http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/search/01/search/ for "WF-C5710" on linux, I am pointed to a ESC/P-R Driver 2 version 1.1.2 which, if I explode the rpm or source rpm, seems to include the desired driver in the file named: `Epson-WF-C5710_Series-epson-inkjet-printer-escpr2.ppd`.
Of course this driver doesn't support printers that it doesn't support. What you want is another driver, which isn't packaged in Fedora.
Which other driver would this be? epson-inkjet-printer-escpr2?
I also would like to ask how could I see that this is not the right package? The description in the spec file points to http://avasys.jp/english/linux_e/ which according to google translate raises a page-not-found error.
Yes. It's a wholly different package that does not support any of the printers supported by epson-inkjet-printer-escpr.
Since BZ #1531948 describes that the original open source escpr driver works for the ET-3700 printer with a PPD files adopted from the escpr2 package, I have now packaged the whole set of the escpr2 drivers by replacing the newer binary-only driver with the older open source driver; please see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=epson-inkjet-printer-escpr2. The open source driver works at least with ET-3700 printers; it would be interesting to see if it also works with your WF-C5710 printer.
