Recently I got around to trying my Epson-XP200 printer with a range of 64-bit Puppies (all as Frugals) but had no success with driver packages identified as for the XP200, when CUPS-Maintenance printing a test page (so I assume nothing else will print either).
In summary:
Slacko64 + escpr-1.6.3.deb package - error='wrapper-failed' - A4 page default OK
Tahr64 + epson-1.0.0.deb package - error='filter failed' - A4 OK
Tahr64 + escpr-1.6.3.deb package - error='filter failed' - A4 OK
FatDog64 + epson-1.0.0-? package - error='filter failed' - A4 OK
JustLighthouse604 + escpr-1.6.3.deb - error='wrapper failed" - cannot set page size in Cups
JustLighthouse604638 + escpr-1.6.3.deb - error='wrapper failed" - cannot set page size in Cups
The various screenshots indicate the CUPS versions in use and how the printer is identified on my home network (the printer is 'Wifi-ed'). The Epson driver is there as well as is the default page size.
Lighthouse CUPS Epson did not allow setting defaults for page size (A4) - just came up with 'Banners' when I clicked Set Defaults so I was stuck with the unusable US paper size.
I did not try the epson .rpm driver versions in any of these 64bit Pups.
And I do not know what to use otherwise to the .deb versions for the slackware-based pups.
I found some January 2016 Epson driver packages (coded escpr and 1.6.3) as alternatives to the epson-1.0.0 versions here:

I tried these .debs where they would load but neither version (the new? 163 or the standard 100) seemed to get past the 'filter failed' stoppage for a test page print.
It could be something in my setting up of the printer location

Thanks for any advice as to what I've overlooked, what is needed, or what extra detail would help sort out my problem with the 64-bit Pups and my printer.
