Are you sure GIMP2 won't support the epkowa drivers, I have an epson cx6600 
running with the epkowa driver and can access it from GIMP2. I do have to do 
it by logging in, starting my printer (turn 0n) then starting GIMP, it starts 
scanner about half way thru the startup. Have not tryed it from GIMP after it 
is running without the bove steps.
