An answer that really works, from Epson Support
Thank you for contacting the Epson Connection.
Please follow the instructions below to install a Windows XP emulation
driver.
1. Click on "Start", then "Control Panel" and then "Printers an
Faxes".
2. In the left hand column choose the option "Add Printer". The "Add
Printer Wizard" comes up, click on "Next".
3. At the "Local or Network Printer" screen choose "Local" and remov
the
check from "Automatically Detect".
4. Click on "Next".
5. At the "Select Port" screen choose the appropriate port (usuall
LPT1:
recommended printer port).
6. At the install printer software screen choose "Epson" under
"Manufacturer" and LQ-510 for the printer, then click "Next". If you
wanted to install the Windows universal driver, choose "generic" under
"Manufacturer" and choose "Text Only", then click "Next".
7. At the printer name screen choose "Next".
8. When asked if you would like the printer to be default make the
appropriate selections and then click "Next".
9. Finally click on "Finish". You may need your Windows X
installation
disk.
I don't know why they don't fix the other driver's.
