Well, I went to epson.de, and there it was, epomni.exe, I started
download (some 2.5 MB), and while it was coming, I clicked on html with
the description. To my surprise, no mention of Epson Stylus Color 400,
just 600 and above. And then I saw newer version of the same driver that
I had problem with, EPSON1020.EXE was the name of the file. (My version
was 1011). Decided to go for it (some 4.5MB file), and downloaded it.
Installed it, and it was working without any problems. Go figure. It was
even mentioned in readme that it might not work with codepage 852 (in
fact with any other than 850 or 437), but it did. Finaly, I have printer
under OS/2. :-)
