Hello,
I have a debian server which have an epson printer installed to it.
The printer works fine with windows and linux clients but when I try
to print with a mac it asks for a password and then the printer stops
with the error "/opt/epson-inkjet-printer-201101w/cups/lib/filter/epson_inkjet_printer_filter
failed"
Anyone with a similar layout who can help me?
Thanks!

No direct comparison, but it sounds like it could be a permissions

problem. I think the Mac is different enough that it is using different
groups from Linux.
Are your Windows users part of a domain? If so, they would be linked to
Linux groups and possibly even Linux accounts on the server, so Windows
printing will work. Your Mac might need something similar, although I've
never had much luck getting Linux accounts to join my domain. Instead,
my groups and accounts use the same numbers between systems.

How is the printer being shared? I mean, is it a local printer (USB/LPT...)

or it has some network capabilities (socket/ipp...)?
Anyway, being a MacOS client, you should be able to use IPP and thus
avoiding messing up with another client/server protocols that may require
setting up the correct credentials for accessing the printing resources
(e.g., samba).

It is a good solution if a narrow list of options is needed from

the printer. In my environment , if I use the 'narrow' direct IP
printing, then, I'm not able to use the duplexer, and some other
options that are offered by the printer- if I'm using the Samba
share to add the printer I can use the full set of features (just
like a Windows machine would)

connection method. Check if the drivers for the printer instances are all
the same and also check for their settings.
