My Epson WF-7510 All-in-one worked fine under 13.1. After doing the 13.2 upgrade I can not get the scanner the working over Wi-fi. I get the warning “Can not send command to scanner.” I tried all the usual stuff including reinstalling ESCP/R and the latest i-scan drivers from the Epson site but the scanner utility simply won’t find it. The Printer and FAX are working fine. I also tried the suggestions elsewhere in the forum for the earlier Suse versions to no avail.
You mention that you installed the required iscan packages for this device. Can you confirm that this included the ‘iscan-network-nt’ package as well?
rpm -qa|grep iscan
Did you configure /etc/sane.d/epkowa.conf so that it includes the following entry?
net <IP-address-of-scanner>
As mentioned in the /etc/sane.d/epkowa.conf file
# Network attached devices may be made to work by first installing the
# (non-free) iscan-network-nt package and then adding configuration lines
# as per information below.
#
# For each network attached device, you must add an entry as follows:
#
# net <IP-address|hostname> [port-number]
#
# Ask your network administrator for the device's IP address or check
# for yourself on the panel (if it has one). The port-number is very
# optional and defaults to 1865.
# Note that network attached devices are not queried unless configured
# in this file.
Deano,
Thanks a million!!!
It lives it lives!!
I added the net <ip address> as you suggested.
It all came to life. I knew there was something simple and stupid I was overlooking
since I first installed the Epson under 13.1!
I really love Suse and sometimes hate Linux. I just bought a new Toshiba laptop with Windows 8 installed-
what a piece of c r a p ( Windows 8, not the laptop). I do think however, the one thing Micro$oft does have going for
it though is the way software and hardware installation has been standardized. Still, no matter how many new Windows versions
they release, you can’t polish a turd.
I think the Linux community would grow by leaps and bounds if all of the validation committees
would get together and standardize and simplify the software/hardware installation process across all the
different Linux flavors. Just my two cents worth and worth every penny…
Glad to have been of help!

It is what it is… lot’s of separate communities really, not one homologouse group, so not comparable to windows in that way.
