I have an epson cx7800 printer/scanner that 11,3 doesn’t detect on USB.
I tried Yast-Hardware-printers and Yast-Hardware-printers and nothing is discovered/detected.
Are there repos for this stuff and is there a tutorial like the one for graphic card theory I could peruse?
That was easier than expected.
Went to Yast-software management.
checked description on the search page and entered “printer” for the criteria.
I got cups-drivers (drivers for common unix printing systems) and installed it.
Then went to Yast-hardware-scanner and clicked add, found my scanner and clicked until finised.
Then to Yast-hardware-printer and add and found my epson.
openoffice can print and xsane will run the scanner.
Cool
Edit: Didn’t see your last post. Was about to suggest trying the drivers from here:
All-in-Ones (Multifunction Inkjet Printers) | AVASYS CORPORATION
When setting up printers, I prefer to use the CUPS interface via browser:
http://localhost:631/
Anyway, solved huh?
yeah, thanks.
still learning my way around…
Liking this stuff more and more every day.
