You can't install with a Receipt. That's just a file that indicates that
you installed the Epson print drivers when you installed your OS. I don't
know the Epson DX3850 scanner/printer/copier, but every one I have includes
stuff for the Mac on the accompanying CDs.

Humbug. The dealer sold you somethng that purportedly works on the Mac. If
it doesn't, he should help you fix it or refund your payment.
