I don't know if my Epson 740 USB color printer attached via USB is 
doing "apple talk" to my 10.2.6 iMac lamp.
it is simply attached via a long USB cable..the lamp sees it fine..I 
installed it "default"...so what's the protocol it is using??
I was never able to get my YDL powerbook pismo to see it..I tried cups, 
but I am not a cups expert..this was my first time I saw, heard of 
cups, or did anything with cups. Both the lamp with OS X and the pismo 
with YDL are not connected to my home router via Enet but via the 
airport card...my router can do both, Enet and wireless.
so I just failed on making my pismo laptop with YDL have a printer.
so is the default OS X Print Center "configuring a USB printer wizard" 
- appletalk ?? and I need the same pap you recommended or what ??

You need a pap backend for CUPS.  I happen to have one at:

Make sure you've read all the documentation for CUPS and Netatalk.
