I found my Epson Stylus 700 under the gimp print /stp category,
which is where a lot of the printers for printing photos are
located. That was with apsfilter 6.x.something.
If the recent apsfilter files are still in /usr/local/share/apsfilter,
you could do (in that location)
grep -r 750 *
and I think you'll find it.
