This concerns an Epson printer attached by usb cable to an iMac. I use it mostly for photo printing from MacOS (Mojave). I wanted to test the quality of the Epson Linux print drivers under Fedora on my Linux PC. I did not have a long enough usb cable and I didn't want to lug around the PCs. As both PCs are attached to my router by usb cables I turned on the iMac and the printer and then managed to install the printer in Fedora using Cups. The print quality was not as good from Fedora as from MacOS so goodbye Epson drivers, no more printing from Fedora. Could the problem at 5) have been some "Apple" quirk or because the printer was not any longer attached to Fedora or because I had forgotten about Cups and 'removed' the printer from Gnome menu and deleted drivers.
