I have Epson LQ-1170 printer with model no.P641A. I am using this printer as event printer in plant. I have to pickup the data from Tx pin and collect it on computer through HTTP protocol. afterwords I have been planning to collect data only on Computer without actual printing of data. I mean I have to collect the printer data on computer in soft copy form and have to stopped the hard copy of data from the same printer.

It seems the LQ 1170 was supported with the EPSON Universal P6 Printer Driver 1.1.0.10 2.0.0
.. up to Windows 7 but no further.

It seems the only likely solution is to just try plugging the printer in and crossing your fingers. If it installs the simple driver you're in luck.

Given the age of the printer and that driver specific support for the model was discontinued pre-Windows-XP it's unlikely other solutions will arise.

My LQ 300+ is not compatible with my windows vista

More comprehensive information to those who are looking to use the Epson LQ-300+ with Ubuntu.

You can download the ppd from http://www.cups.org/ppd/epson/en/eplq300.ppd.gz

I just copied the .gz (don't extract the ppd) file to /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/PPD/Epson/
(not sure where else I can put it).

Goto System->Administration->Printing and add a new printer. I have connected the printer with one of those cheap USB to Parallel cables. The printer is detected as EPSON LQ-300+

Select driver under Epson and you should see it listed as LQ-300+ 24 pin.

CAUTION!: The max resolution you can use under "Printer Options" is 360x180dpi. DO NOT select the highest 360dpi setting - your printer will go crazy and eat-up all your paper.

It works for me. I hope it works for you too.
