Depending on how the NIC is implemented (Epson used parallel-to-Ethernet,
USB-t0-Ethernet, and at least two, possibly three, different internal NIC
cards) the simplest way would probably to set it up using IP printing.
Switch
on the printer, get the IP address (fixed or DHCP; I recommend fixed for a
printer) and do the printer setup on the Mac. An old printer with an
internal
NIC should be instantly visible in any version of OS X past 10.2. 10.1
might
present problems. 10.0 is best left in the trash.

The printer says it is 192.168.123.100, subnet=255.255.255.0,
Gateway=192.168.123.100. But my Windows machine has its port to
192.168.123.100 and printing fails from it.

Errm... it's its own gateway?! I'd put the printer onto the local net and set
its gateway to whatever the local net's gateway is.
