FreeBSD 15 - Epson XP Printing - No Print

P

pr0xibus

Evening Folks.

Brand new install of FreeBSD 15, recently purchased a Cheap Epson XP 2205 Printer.

I have installed
  1. epson-inkjet-printer-escpr-1.8.5
  2. epsonscan2-6.7.70.0_2
Cups is installed and Enabled, and running correctly.
The printer is indeed listed under "Available Printers"
When I add the printer, the Driver is available under the XP-2200 Series (ESC/PR) and is added correctly

When I print something from i.e. Kate, The queue on both KDE & Cups have the message "Printer In Use" and nothing comes out of the printer.
