Always choose "Epson USB" for Epson printers. (Presumably this is the 
Epson Stylus Color 3000.)

This usually suggests a communication problem with the printer.

So, the printer driver is installed (otherwise you couldn't try to 
print to it). Is the "Start Jobs" button in the printer window 
activated? What happens when you click on it?

Another issue. In the Printer List, select the printer and click 
Configure. This should launch the Epson printer utility. Does this one 
see the printer?
