TYB!
Anon's about ready to give up on Arch Linux.
Can't print.
Just spent hours trying to configure it and moved the ball down the field but it's still nowhere near the goal.
Have an ET-4800 printer, an Epson.
This looks like the right package:

But how to install it??!?
Just want to print one fucking thing, this fucking sucks.
If can't print will reinstall the OS.
Been printing from a VM (Ubuntu). That's so tiresome, starting the VM, copying the file in, printing it, etc.
Just want to print the way normal operating systems have for decades!
If any anon has had success printing in Arch Linux, appreciate any pointers. Especially if success with Epson ET-4800.
It's a neat printer, you buy the ink in bottles and fill a well, rather than expensive cartridges.
Anyway. Frustrated. Thanks for any help!
