I don't know the model, but it appears according to Google to be an inkjet
printer...    so:

 apt-cache search epson

foomatic-db-engine - linuxprinting.org printer support - programs
camediaplay - Still Camera Digital Interface
escputil - A maintenance utility for Epson Stylus printers
libsane-extras - API library for scanners -- extra backends
mtink - Status monitor and configuration tool for Epson inkjet printers
mtink-doc - Documentation for mtink

 apt-cache show mtink

 <snipped>
Description: Status monitor and configuration tool for Epson inkjet
printers Mtink is a status monitor which allow to get the
 remaining ink quantity, printing of test patterns,
 changing and cleaning cartridges, ...

You might want mtink-doc as well.

Hope this helps...
