Susi,

I am obviously quite aware of the capabilities of Epson printers. The original poster has neither a PostScript RIP nor a Macintosh. As such, a PPD file would be useless to that user.

With regards to MacOS X, it is not �PostScript-based� in any way, shape, or form. It does have a subset PDF-compatible imaging model, but applications do not generate PostScript and certainly don't muck around with PPD files. And again, this doesn't provide a solution to the user in question.

Nor does anything going on with Linux. And at Adobe, we certainly would not advise use of �CloneScript� for fairly obvious reasons.
