   FWIW according to the Apple site, Epson driver 2.11.01 is included in Tiger.
   This doesn't match up with the version number on Epson UK's website which is
   version 1.6b. I'm hoping the 2.11.01 is the date version of the Epson driver
   in Apple... is there a danger of installing 2 drivers for the same printer
   on OS X?

There shouldn't be, but I've copied Tyler Blessing who could say more
about that.

   Also, did a google on removing the gimp driver and after 10 pages
   of results I've learned that a) you can do this in print centre or
   b) you have to track down and destroy all gimp driver bits one by
   one.

   Can anyone straighten me out on this point of removing the gimp
   driver?

You shouldn't actually need to uninstall Gimp-Print.  All it provides
is a bunch of PPD files and a CUPS driver (rastertoprinter in 4.2,
rastertogutenprint-5.0 in 5.0).  It won't actually interfere with any
other driver on the system; you can simply choose a different PPD file
and it will use the driver associated with that driver.

We do provide an uninstaller:
