Here are some suggestions for debugging with USB:
1. Check the printer is connected to USB by running the command lsusb in terminal. You should see the printer listed.
2. Use the printer setup...
I don't think you can connect directly PC to printer with wifi. You need a wifi router. Then you connect the PC to the wifi using the wifinetwork password, and you connect the printer to the wifi...
I guess the possible causes of blank self test pages are:
no ink
print head clogged, not connected correctly (that often happens to me), or damaged
printer damaged
I have the luxury of 2...
I think the first step is to prove the printer itself works by printing the self test page using the keypad/menu on the actual printer. That's completely independent of the computer. If that does not...
I looked at the "Enable systray Quickstarter" it was not enabled. I experimented with enabling and disabling it and it had no effect on the behavior.
I can live with it, and will eventually install...
I am using the ubuntu 14.10 remix from Linux Format magazine with xfce desktop.
When I start libre office, I get a notification that the indicator plugin stopped working.
I cannot get this plugin...
Try the ppd for the printer hero 9.1 if you cannot find one for the esp 2170
Sometimes there is a manufacturer "eastman kodak" as opposed to "kodak" that has the esp printers
Yes, I completely understand the fustration. An extra difficulty with printers / scanners is that it's quite difficult as a user to discover if it's the overall system (cups or sane) that is causing...
Hi,
I think the general problem with this forum is, there are plenty of people who will want to ask for help, but the replies depend on someone who might know the answer reading the question, and...
You may get suggestions to install the sane backend kodakaio from the sane site or from sourceforge. Don't do this except as a last resort because it is difficult to install sane-backends correctly...
Does anyone have experience of this printer working with CUPS / c2esp ?
If so which ppd did you use when setting up a queue?
If you have ubuntu 12.04 or later you should not need to download anything from sourceforge. Rather install the package c2esp from the ubuntu repository (normally it is installed by default) then...
Perhaps you have assigned the wrong printer type to the print queue?
There is no ppd file for the ESP3.2 yet
You should try the one for the Hero 9.1
(note that ESP 3 or ESP3200 would both be...
I think ubuntu 12.04 was the first version with the c2esp driver included.
If you stay with 11.10, you could install the package c2esp_25c-1 using the deb file here...
sorry, I meant queue for the printer, not quese
if you have a recent ubuntu and a kodak aio printer, it should just work.
Use a printer setup tool to create a quese for the printer.
in my case , xubuntu 13.04, it's "settings manager", "printers"...
Other ideas:
did the printer do anything at all? like display something that suggested it was being sent data?
You could try connecting with USB to eliminate the possibility that the problem is...
The following might help
In /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
Change LogLevel warn to LogLevel debug to get much more information in /var/log/cups/error_log
This allows users who install a binary...
It's quite common to encounter difficulties when installing sane from git in order to get new features.
I am trying to update a tool called sane-troubleshoot, which makes diagnosing these problems...
I think one reason why it is so difficult to get sane set up is that installing a new version, where an old version already exists, does not replace all the configuration files with new ones. This is...
Now I'm not sure.
It may be necessary to restart the PC after editing the udev rules.
Or it may be necessary for you to belong to the group called scanner.
On the menu go to: Settings manager;...
Setting permissions for a usb connection
========================================
If you can scan as root, but not as user, you have a permissions issue.
Current Ubuntu releases use udev to set...
Now sudo scanimage -L seems to detect the scanner
Try scanimage -L
(that's without the sudo)
If that detects the scanner, any other scan program should work too
