epson stylus sx210 will not print, runs all papers trough but no print action

Asked by Kirsten Petrea Jakobsen

As above. Epson stylus sx 210 will not print. After ordering print the printer runs all papers in tray through but does not print on any of them.
PC is running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - Lucid Lynx. Pc is AMD Athlon 64 X2 QL-65 running on Pachard Bell.
The printer worked fine when windows was set up, but I would rather use Linux.
Thank you. Kirsten

Your printer is reported to work perfectly in Linux :

http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Epson/Epson-Stylus_SX210

There are several link to download 64 bit drivers in that page

Tips: sometimes removing and reinstalling the printer can solve

Thanks for the help: Now it prints after manually installing a 64 bit driver, it prints rather slow, but it does, and after all it is one of the cheapest printers on the market so what can I expect, Thank yo for helping me out.
