There is an issue with the Gutenprint drivers and *some* Epson printers
with Word. If the Epson printer sup****ts resolutions above 2880x720
(2880x1440 may be OK), you will probably only get blank pages from Word
2004 or Word 2008. The Gutenpring developers are aware of the problem
and the issue should be resolved with the next release of the Gutenprint
drivers.
The Epson c120 is one of the effected printers. The Epson c80 should be
OK.
