Well, this is where the plot thickens and Epson is kind of screwed up.
 They have released a driver for the R2400 & Leopard, but only for
Intel machines (I have a G5).  Some people say that this driver
actually does work with G5 machines, and that Epson has mis-labeled it
as Intel only.

Epson Europe has released a driver for Leopard & the R2400 recently. 
They say their driver works for both Intel and G5 machines, which
seems to corroborate the reports that the Epson USA driver which only
lists Intel machines in the compatibility section may also work with G5s.

All in all, it's very confusing.  I don't know whether the fault lies
with Apple or Epson, but from a consumer's point of view - it stinks.
