It is possible that this printer will work with the XP-15000 driver in
5 color mode with Gutenprint 5.3.1.  If that works (or if I can get my
hands on the printer), it can be supported easily.

The issue of Bluetooth or network vs. USB is outside of the scope of
Gutenprint per se, but if you can specify what OS you're using,
perhaps someone here can assist.

Gutenprint is independent of Epson, and Epson is not responsible for
any issue you have with Gutenprint.  That's our responsibility.
