Hello all,
I purchased a multifunction Epson TX101 Inkjet printer. I didn't do my
research for linux support and this is a fairly new printer.
I' plugged it into my F10 box. The printer is recognized but the
driver isn't there (selectred drive is for Epson scan 2500 or
something like that,). I'm unable to print.
xsane refuses to recognise the scanner as well.
So, is there a generic USB printer/scanner driver I could use or is
there something else I can do to get this working?
There was a package I pulled from the Epson site, or a link thereon, and
as I recall it had kernel modules or cups modules, or similar not very
portable stuff. However, it dropped in and worked on an FC6 machine, and
nothing newer. You might poke around and see if there is something
newer, and also try iscan, I never got sane working, or missed it, iscan
does what I need.
If all else fails, and you have the hardware, you might do a minimal FC6
install with the package in a KVM machine, and connect the USB to that.
Slightly complex, but as a device controller it really beats using
Windows! ;-)
