Epson printer TX200 (SX205) does not work.

Im trying to get working my TX200 printer but there is no way.

1-Installed gutenprint and cups using the wiki, when i go to localhost:631 and try to add a printer it not shows usb or local.
2-Unninstalled gutenprint and installed from source a old version that works with my printer in ubuntu (5.2.3) but that does not work to.
3-Searching a driver to manually install but i only gets this rpm or deb http://avasys.jp/eng/linux_driver/downl … jet/escpr/ looking for how to install a deb or rpm without success.
  3.1-Installed dpkg from AUR to try dpkg -i epson-package.deb but it gaves me this error: "dpkg: warning: 'update-rc.d' not found in PATH or not executable."
  3.2-With deb2tgz i convert the package but later i dont know what to do with it. sad

Once you have the tgz you can use "sudo pacman -U nameofmytgz" to install it. Then retry the whole cups procedure.
