I'll will (and have so far) use the information here, and post my own setup when I'm done, if there's no one else out there with that experience. libgutenprint2 software package provides runtime for the Gutenprint printer driver library, you can install in your Ubuntu 17. What I was hoping for was someone who could say, "Forget the bundled software, do to set it up on wifi manually, install to connect to the scanner from, printing works with driver - at least that's how I set it up." I guess that's to make it easy for anyone else to setup, but when you're looking to use it with an unsupported (by Epson's documentation) OS, you're just stuck on your own. Updated: A little more information, like most printers (I expect) the documentation for the printer basically says, "don't use plug-n-play, run our setup CD from your Windows/Mac system", to do anything (set it up for network use even). I'd like to use it as a network printer/scanner being able to do both from my Windows and Ubuntu machines however, if it needs to be physically connected to a computer (preferably the Ubuntu machine) that is doable (again, then sharing print/scan functions to the network).īasically, I'm looking for someone who has used this printer/scanner (or similar) in a multi-platform environment to share how the set it up and how well it worked. It is a printer/scanner with ethernet/wifi/usb. Looking for a known good way to setup an Epson Artisan 800 on Ubuntu specifically or any linux box in general.

via the Arch Build System, or by installing with yaourt and having customizepkg set up), one can apply the following patch to the PKGBUILD of gutenprint in order to have the modification within the package: - PKGBUILD.old 18:13:15.000000000 +0200 (Increasing the timeout in CUPS would not be good since one could wait for hours.)įor Arch Linux, if one builds the package locally (e.g.

So, as long as /usr/lib/cups/driver/foomatic is not fixed to be quicker on big files, probably the best workaround is, if one wants to have both gutenprint and a full foomatic-install, to manually remove the two big XML files provided by gutenprint. Since it did not get information about printer drivers, it is not possible to add printers via any interface to CUPS other than manually editing configuration files. Eventually, it might finish, but CUPS times out earlier without having got any information about printer drivers and produces this strange Success-error.
When CUPS tries to get a list of printer drivers, /usr/lib/cups/driver/foomatic list is called, which takes way too long time on the big XML files (this is a fault of /usr/lib/cups/driver/foomatic).foomatic or one of it's sub-packages ( foomatic-db-engine in Arch Linux) install the perl script /usr/lib/cups/driver/foomatic.gutenprint installs two comparably big XML files, namely /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/driver/gutenprint-ijs-simplified.5.2.xml and /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/driver/gutenprint-ijs.5.2.xml (as in the current version as of this writing).There is an informative discussion of this problem, so I provide just a summary: or: Manually remove the files /usr/share/foomatic/db/source/driver/gutenprint-ijs*.xml.or: Remove the package providing /usr/lib/cups/driver/foomatic (which is foomatic-db-engine on Arch Linux),.This bug triggers as an interaction between gutenprint, foomatic and cups.
