Have had problems installing Epson Stylus C62 (local USB connection) in Knoppix 5.0.1

First, CUPS was not running so I had to start it with (from a root console)
cupsd
Second, all attempts using ...
KMenu | Control Center | Peripherals | Printers
failed (incl as Admin/root) with this error message or a simple variation ...
Unable to load the requested driver:
Unable to create the Foomatic driver [Epson-Stylus_C62,gimp-print]. Either that driver does not exist, or you don't have the required permissions to perform that operation.
Solution

I used the web interface through ...
http://localhost:631/admin
then followed 'common sense' e.g. Add printer ...

There was a limited selection (most unlike those offered from the GUI) of drivers e.g.
Model: Epson Stylus Color Series CUPS v1.1 (en)
Model: Epson New Stylus Color Series CUPS v1.1 (en)
Both work very well (col/b&W; text and graphics; hi/lo res) with my Stylus C62

After the printer was successfully installed through the web interface, I was able to use all the options available from KMenu | Control Center | Peripherals | Printers.

I now see that someone has suggested using
foomatic-cleanupdrivers
for a similar problem and reported success.
However, I haven't yet tried that.
