Epson Stylus Color drivers are included in Win2k Final. Epson hasn't released any others.

Those are for the Stylus Color 640 not the 600. Can you confirm that they work with the 600? As was pointed out, Win2k ships with drivers for the 600 that work fine, except they don't have the utility that tells you how much ink is left.

I received the follow:
 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Title: Stylus Color 600
 
Publisher: Epson
 
Drivers: http://www.ntcompatible.com/cgi-bin/pickem.cgi?es640w2k
 
Working: perfectly
 
OS: 2000
 
Comments: Just use the Epson 640 Drivers, and they work fine, if you dont like looking at the number, then rename the printer to 600 =)

The 640 drivers are ok if you are using a local printer, but my Color Stylus 600 is hanging off an Nt 4 Server on the network and I need to setup the the Stylus as a network printer. When I try the add network printer wizard, i get the "server has wrong drivers" message - even when I have installed the win2k drivers on my box...
 
Any ideas???

I think the only option you have is to use the 600 drivers from the Win2k CD. They work fine, except for lack of monitoring (the 640 doesn't give that either with the 600) and no 14400 res printing.
