[NTLUG:Discuss] Problem with Epson Stylus Color 860 USB

Hello:

I am having a problem with trying to get my
Epson Stylus Color 860 USB printer working.

I am using Redhat 7.1 on a Dell Inspiron 3800
laptop. 

When I go to the knotrol-panel and select Printer, I get the
printconf-gui.
I then hit the New button and get the configuration dialog.

I set-up a name and then clicked on Queue Type.
I Selected Local Printer as the Queue Type, but the Printer Device
selection box is empty.

Someone on the seawolf amiling list suggested that I look
at dmesg for any error messages.  

Here is what comes out from dmesg:

In this output, I can see there there are some problems with the IRQs.

Anyone know what I can do about this?

Thanks,
