Printer problems with Leopard

Hi,

I previously owned a G5 running panther with an Epson Stylus Photo R200 Inkjet printer attached. Everything worked fine and it printed directly to CDs no problems at all.

However, I recently bought a new Mac Pro with Leopard pre-installed and connected up the printer and now it refuses to print to CDs. I contacted Epson and they informed me that I need to upgrade my Print CD software and the only way to do this is for me to pay them £10 so they can send me a CD. Does anyone know of other software that will work or an alternative means of acquiring a recent version of Epson Print CD software? The lovely people at Epson told me the latest version available was 1.4.1 and that you can't buy it in the shops!

Any suggestions very welcome, thanks.
 
I found this on the Lexmark support site. Dunno if it will help any of you guys.

Actually, I think the following document helped me the most, especially the troubleshooting section.

I followed the steps in the troubleshooting section, deleted the correct files, and then re-added the printer, and it works great now. I feel like the driver sometimes has its issues, given that some documents just stop printing helf way through, or half a page through, but I can usually get them going again and print them. At least it mostly works.
