I am new to this list; I am 90 years old and had a serious Stroke just over 18 months ago which left me with a complete loss of memory. I had a Debian Jessie installation and have now a Debian 10 double install with Windows 10. I am now trying to set up my Debian 10. I am trying to install my XP - 2100, but am finding it very difficult. Epson can`t offer much help. This particular machine is not on the list of printers, and so I have tried many ways of getting it to print. I did get close, I got to `printing a test print`, it gave a blank sheet and the following `cups server error` ` there was an error during the cups operation: client-error-document-format-not supported` Can any one help me please. I`m not just a 90 year newby, I`m worse than that.

After installing it, you'll need to set up CUPS. It's probably already installed, but if not, sudo apt install cups At that point, https://wiki.debian.org/SystemPrinting#The_CUPS_Web_Interface should be enough to get you printing. -dsr-
