Does anyone owns an EPSON CX1500 printer?

I have that printer which has been working fine on my Windows PC, but I am not sure if iI am going to need drivers to work with my new MBP that is on its way.

I could not find any drivers on the epson site and I am afraid that it wont work..

thanks

EPSON does not provide Mac support for your printer. However, CUPS support is available. You will have to download and install Gutenprint (http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/).

Your MacBook Pro will have drivers loaded for most, if not all Epson printers - before you try anything, plug the printer in, Spotlight "Printer Setup Utility" and click "Add", and if it doesn't show up in the list of printers, well, you might be screwed, you would have to use MisterMe's idea.

EDIT: I just did some browsing around, and I think that is the **only** All-In-One that doesn't support Mac OS X. :(
