Epson L210 Printer Install

Asked by Santiago Riveros

I used to work with an Epson L200 with my ubuntu but now i changed to a L210 and the driver I had working with it isnt compatible. I want to know how to install it or maybe someone knows a similar driver that works with it because apparently there is no driver for this printer in ubuntu. Thanks
