EpsonStylus C43UX printer


My girfriend has this printer and I'm trying to make it work-print
I have no printer experience... She is using FedoraCore2 and gimp-print 4.2.6 drivers.

If I try to add printer with system-config-printer, the list of epson printers is missing C43UX, the closest is C42UX, so I select this one, but it's not working. If I try to print test page i get: "lpr: unable to print file: server-error-service-unavalible" On gimp-print website I can see that this model is fully supported.

The funny thing is that if I try to print from Gimp, the C43UX model is listed there!
But when I click Print I get select a file to save... or something dialog. No printing.

If I run: 'lpr' I get "lpr: error - sheduler not responding"
Please help me with this, I have no idea what to do.

Thanks
