Description JDronova 2013-05-20 17:03:23 MSK 
Hi,
We have this topic on our forums: http://forum.rosalab.ru/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=2041&p=16484#p16481

There is a SourceForge project which provides Linux support for EPSON AcuLaser C900 printer: http://sourceforge.net/projects/alc900-cups/

So it could be nice to have this package in ROSA. Thanks.

Don't know, let the forum user try it :))

This possibly works, but requires ancient libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3:

I am not sure if we are able to include all necessary packages to the distribution and guarantee their work.

There were no more requests for this driver. The final resolution is not to include it in repositories.
