Hi ...
Did you install and test Ghostsript ?
If GS works, your Epson is probably OK. Its
command line, but easy...
There may be version wars also. I upgraded 7.04
with a 7.11 disk which contained Turboprint7HD.lzx
at 119356 bytes. This was then upgraded with the
downloaded TP716_e.lha at 541,677 bytes,
and this in turn by the latest TP717Beta.lha at 53,799 bytes.
You might compare sizes/numbers, then delete
all Amiga drivers, unarchive all your TP stuff
somewhere, and manually install, in order, making sure
TurboStart is in WBStartup. Also, files saved out
of Graphics Publisher are sometimes dodgy...
and I don't install Turbospool. yadayadayda
I tested my Epson with example files from Cu Amiga
DrawStudio Lite, and pages 14-16 of the TP 7
addendum manual for guidance.
hope this helps....
