I've got a CX6600, and have visited the Epson site. They have plenty
of patches for SmartPanel and the other bits and pieces, but not the
full installer.

My apologies for not reading your printer model correctly. The only
thing I can suggest is to install all the software using the CD that
came with the peripheral and then use the patches to update that
software to the latest. The PowerPC software should still run on the
new Intel Macs.

That turned out to be the trick after I dug up my original installer CD
(long buried in a cabinet). I ran an UNinstall for each piece of
software in the CX6600 mess and then re-installed it to be sure it was
all OK. I uninstalled the PowerPC drivers per the information on
Epson's site and installed the new Intel ones. The added the latest
patches for SmartPanel, et al.

I'd forgotten how ridiculous the install process is for this
printer...on my 2GHz iMac the installs took more than 20 minutes!
