From a superuser konsole, I can not cd to the scangearmp-mg2200series-2.00-1-deb from this directory from linux-wzav:~

Hi
Sure there isn’t a funny character in the name which needs escaping?
mkdir scangearmp-mg2200series-2.00-1-deb
cd scangearmp-mg2200series-2.00-1-deb
~/scangearmp-mg2200series-2.00-1-deb$
Use tab completion, as in enter part of the name, then press the tab key…
Assuming your in the /home/linux-wzav directory when you tried?
Escaping has multiple definitions.
mkdir makes directories. I want to change to that directory.
I will see if some others understand my post.

Hi
Which I did, look where the $ is… at the end… so using the name
you provided as a directory I had no issues using the cd command to get
into it…

What do you expect in a newly created directory ?
Try pwd (present working directory)command to find where you are.
Though dir works on Linux it is essentially a dos command. The
equivalent Linux command is ls.

BTW Andy, you do not want deb packages for openSUSE. Choose the RPM package instead.

It is an alias to “ls -l” - I found it useful, when I made the migration
from Dos/Win.
cer@Telcontar:~> alias | grep dir
alias dir='ls -l'
alias md='mkdir -p'
alias rd='rmdir'

From my first post.
From a superuser konsole, I can not cd to the scangearmp-mg2200series-2.00-1-deb from this directory from linux-wzav:~
There is a deb file(s) in that directory. ______________________________ that I wanted to install to hopefully get my printer working under Linux.
That’s why I could not understand the post that created a new directory.

In superuser konsole use pwd command and from normal konsole use the
same command. You will understand that superuser working directory is
/root/ and normal user working directory is /home/<Andy>/

That’s a description from your eyes, not facts.
Issue the command “ls -l” in the directory where that is, and then cd to
it, and put all the output here.
Like this:

> cer@Telcontar:~/no> md scangearmp-mg2200series-2.00-1-deb

And copy it all back here. We prefer facts, commands, outputs, error
messages, not a description of what you see, because we, or at least I
and probably others, can not understand your message.

Rather than go over some old ground again, how about we start from scratch ?
I would like to get my Epson MG 2220 to print documents in OpenSuse.
The printer works in all 32 bit Windows versions.
To show the readers some useful information concerning the printer settings, I tried to get some screen shots by configuring the printer.
System settings crashed.
I attempted to report the crash using the crash reporting assistant.
It was not able to download the symbols because it could not find them in the currently configured repositories.
From the packages I downloaded and installed, there are a number of Epson printer drivers, but none for my specific model.
I tried some of the recommended drivers(generic) as well as a few of the Epson inkjet printer drivers.
No luck.
Good idea. Please continue with the printer driver thread here:
-
Please read my last post and continue with installing the printer drivers. The MG2200 series drivers should be okay for this model. (You were missing the ‘cnijfilter-mg2200series-3.80’ package as I recall).
-
The ‘scangearmp’ package is for the scanner device. You seem to have downloaded the deb package (for Debian-based systems). You require the rpm package.Anyway, please start a new thread for that, with suitably descriptive title.
I would like to get my Epson MG 2220 to print documents in OpenSuse.
You mean Canon right?
I tried changing directories from both consoles.

Please do not mix threads.
This one is about not been able to change into certain directory, not
about printers. For your printer, please open another thread.
