Currently I am testing with forced uni-directional communication via
lpadmin -p <printer> -o usb-unidir-default=true
and the Epson prints perfectly. It did already ~15 jobs one after the other without power-cycling.
The USB -> Parallel adapter which I am using identifies itself as
Bus 001 Device 039: ID 067b:2305 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2305 Parallel Port
The usblp kernel module is blacklisted.
