How to install a printer that isn’t listed in the printer driver GUI of Gnome or KDE

Recently I tried to install my Epson Stylus C60 printer but to my dismay its driver was not listed in the KDEPrint driver GUI. After much trial-and-fail and searching I finally found that you can simply go to http://localhost:631/ in any browser and easily locate your elusive printer driver. After clicking on “Add Printer” the process is very straight forward and has far more drivers listed. Once you have finished adding your printer you will be pleased to find out that it will appear in the Printing GUI of your desktop environment, (Gnome/KDE,) ready to print.
