Can you start system- config- printer (System -> Administration -> Printing), right-click your printer's icon, click "Properties" and in the dioalog appearing then click the "Change ..." button for "Make and Model". Choose your printer manufacturer ("Epson") and model ("Stylus Photo 870"). On the right hand side of the model selection page you wioll be able to choose drivers. Choose one of the "CUPS + Gutenprint" entries, click "Forward", then "Apply". After that the mentioned functions should work.
