Do you have 

device ulpt

in your kernel conf file ?
I see no sign below of it you should see a line like:

ulpt0: EPSON USB Printer, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 4, iclass 7/1

in dmesg.

However it doesn't look as though it is finding any usb device
(other than hubs and controllers). Even if it doesn't know about your
printer I would have thought if it found it then you would see an entry
for "ugen" (a generic usb catch-all for unknown usb devices from my
understanding - I don't think you can actually do anything with such a
device).

Also you have to make sure it is in the source as a supported device.
...usbdevs...

Would look for you but my kernel source tree seems to have disappeared
.. lol.. (I think I have a typo in my cvsupfile..*sigh* I love this
feature where if you give it a non-existant tag it wipes all the source
code off the disk .. I knew I should have watched it instead of going to
bed.)
