This is the first time our office is using fedora 7. We have purchased EPSON T10 printer assuming that any printer product is compatible with it. However, the accompanying CD driver of the printer is compatible only with Windows. We are now in dilemma on how to install the said printer.
Im using Linux Mint Helena and just got myself a new HP Deskjet D1663 printer. However, I followed the instructions on [url] but am getting stuck at Step 5A.
When I put the command.
Quote:
make
It gives the error
Quote:
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
I'm also surprised that the [url] website had no option for Linux Mint 8 (Helena) and thus i had to follow instructions and do installations as per Linux Mint 5 or 6. I hope the Step 2 (Install Dependency Packages) has not adversely affected my Linux 8.
having problems trying to get my printer connected using fedora 15. tried both usb and networked connection. i can get it to recognize make and model but not install driver.
I've been running Xubuntu 9.04 for the past couple of months but have difficulty installing my Canon MX-860 wireless printer. Everything else works perfectly and connects wirelessly to internet. Since I run a couple of other Win based computers, printing from the Toshiba 1100 laptop hasn't been a problem. It would be an advantage. I tried to install the latest Xubuntu distro on the Toshiba and it installed but could not connect to the wireless Atheros card. Where should I start? get Distro 10.04 working first or try and install the printer with the existing distro?
I was curious as to if there was a way to install a 32bit driver on a 64bit system. I have a dell v515w printer and the only driver they provide for it is a 32bit driver. I was wandering if anyone may know of a way to install it or if anyone knows of any other available drivers. I have searched everywhere for i dont know how long and came up with nothing i have tried installing the 32bit libraries and it didnt help.. and going back a 32bit system is out of the question due to ubuntu not wanting to load.. i think it has something to due with my hard drive being to large... but im using ubuntu 10.10 maverick 64bit...
I am new to Linux having just recently installed Fedora 10 on my Dell Inspiron 1720. I bought a Lexmark x4975 wireless printer which comes with an installation disk for windows and Mac only. Any ideas how I can install the printer on my linux setup?
I have Ubuntu version 10.10 and I'm trying to install the HP DeskJet 1000 J110a printer. I have HPLIP version 3.11 (the latest version I believe). The printer shows up but when I try to print the error message reads: Printer requires the 'foomatic-rip-hplip' program but is not currently installed.
I'm trying to add my Samsung SCX4500W printer to my opensuse 11.2 machine running KDE.From Yast->Printer->Add printerI am able to set the printer up, however there is no driver for my specific network printer. Samsung does provide a linux driver but I have no idea what I'm doing when installing peripherals on linux basically
I have a problem with a bad entry in my system-config-printer on my notebook computer which I think is interfering with my ability to print. I run fedora 10 on several systems in my house. On one desktop, I have a printer hosted which I think I have successfully setup for wireless network sharing (an HP895) using IPP.My problem seems to be a bad entry in my system-config-printer on my notebook computer which seems to stall when I try to print from applications (Firefox for example.) on the notebook. If I open up "Printing", I have 3 printers listed... one of them is for when the printer is attached directly to the notebook, one of them is the working printer description "printer" and the 3d is the bad entry. If I click on the bad entry to try to delete it, I don't have that option, but If I try to look at the "properties" for that entry, system-config-printer stalls (as do other applications when the printing dialog box starts up, and I have to force them to shut down.)
I will attach some screenshots and a copy of my /etc/cups/printers.conf file.How do I get rid of this "bad entry" in the system-config-printers GUI ? It doesn't seem to exist in the printers.conf file.
I have ununtu 9.04 running on my desktop this question regards printing. I first installed my Hp laserjet p 1006 printer it worked great. Next I installed hp laser jet 2500 l that works great now if I go to use my hp p1006 it does print at all it says it is but nothing happens, the other HP printer works great.
I have a Canon PIXMA MP628 printer connected to my home network, wirelessly. PReviously, when I was running windows, I am able to print wirelessly.
My printer is connected to my router and has a static IP address of 192.168.0.199
Therefore, how can I make my printer to work in Ubuntu now, since Canon doesn't have any Linux drivers. Am I able to add printer from Ubuntu Printing Service menu? What are the options that I should select?
I want to install my Epson Stylus CX8400 (on my machine named windows-7) on my server. I'm using the server software so no GUI. I have the printer shared and I'm using Samba. The path to the printer is: Code: //windows-7/stylusCX8400
I've bought a HP Photosmart printer, HP Photosmart wireless e-All-in-One printer - B110a and i've got a problem installing it properly. I'm using Debian 6.0 Squeeze. When i connect the printer, Debian doesn't recognize my printer as the Photosmart B109 printer for unknown reason. When i go to the site of HP and search for a driver, it directs me to this site:I've downloaded that latest hplip file as a .run file and installed it. My printer is recognized proparly, but when i try to print a colored image, it comes out black/white. Something is not crrect. Does anyone recognize this problem with this type HP printer?
I am using Fedora 13 and have an intermittent problem with the printer(HP d2540). Periodically, the printer will not finish a print job or the software leaves some form of command that interferes with the subsequent jobs. I haven't had much luck finding the print queue. Typically, the print jobs are coming out of the OpenOffice word processing segment and I am not sure whether there is an actual problem or simply a page formatting error.
I have a PPD file supplied by the printer manufacturer and thought that all I needed to do was put this in /etc/cups/ppd When I go to System Settings > Printers and add Network printer the machine is found but when I click on 'Add' nothing appears in the left hand side. Cups is installed and another HP printer is working ok. Have I missed something?
I'm such a newbie when it comes to Ubuntu, or any Linux varient, period. I was trying to install a driver for an HP All-in-One Printer and was trying all kinds of commands from different Google searches... still unsuccessful in the installation. I downloaded the file to my desktop, but after using a Chmod command someone mentioned, I now have a folder on my desktop named:
"You are not the owner so you cannot change these permissions". The folder's icon on my desktop has a red box with white circle on the middle right side and a lock symbol above that. I'm the only user so I don't get why the permissions are protected from me, how do i undo this?
I'm reasonably new to Linux and very new to Ubuntu . I've just installed 9.10 as a dual boot on a Windows XP Pro Dell Inspiron 9200. I have a Samsung CLP-315 that I need to configure first as a local printer then as a wireless network printer. I found the software (.bin file) on the Samsung site and downloaded it but that's as far as I got. Can I use any of the GUI package managers or do I need to use Terminal and command line syntax? Here's the real question "what is the syntax for installing software/drivers?"
I am trying to install a Kodak Printer to my Ubuntu10. Only to be informed that the CD autorun is not supported in files, I have the printer installed on the windows OS, without any problems, I have explored the CD and even tried setup but with no joy.Has any member encountered similar probs with installing software.
Since my windows HDD died, I have been permanently on ubuntu but i never got my printer set up. Its a friday night and now ive got some time on my hands! Ive found the drivers for my printer (Cannon MP 210) but i have no idea what to do with the files. The file for the scanner is a .tgz file, and the printer driver is a .tar file. When i connected my printer a few minutes ago, ubuntu 10.10 brought me to the installation and i installed and older printers driver (mp 180) but the scanner wont work and a bit of excess ink is on the test paper.

About a week ago I installed my first Linux (Ubuntu 10.04). Since then I've been trying to get my printer to work by following some of the instructions on the web.Unfortunately,as a newbie, I can't seem to get it right... The printer is - Brother DCP-135C.

successfully installed a HP Deskjet f2420 to work for both computers through ASUS router WL-500gP V2. Suddenly, it won't work anymore, and trying to install it like I did the time before through HPAppSocket/JetDirect gives me a warning sign telling that the CUPS-server is somehow wrong and that during the CUPS-operation "client-error-not-possible" there was some kind of a fault and whatever...
I have just upgraded my desktop to Fedora 14 from 12, I have been quite happily printing postscript documents via CUPS to an Epson CX9300F for ages. After the upgrade ( rather re-install as the boot partition wasn't big enough ) The documents come out looking like they were printed on an old Apple deskwriter, i.e. very pixel-lated.
I cannot seem to find what or where one has to tweak things to get it too work. I have tried both CX9300 drivers as supplied with the OS. I have tried system-config-printer and changed the resolution from auto to 370. So far no luck.
