I've been to the page but as I'm not a computer buff I don't understand the READ ME installation instructions. I don't know about "root privileges", which files to download for ubuntu 8.04, and what commands to give in the terminal to get the whole thing going. It seems there are other things I also have to download, configure and install for it all to work, but hopefully I'm wrong! I don't suppose I can do it via the synaptic manager? Isn't there an easy step by step foolproof way of presenting the instructions? I really don't want to have to resort to opening Windows just to print!!! Any simple help/instructions would greatly help. Thanks for solving my other question. Keep up the good work, it's much appreciated. I've been playing around trying to get the damned printer working for 2 days!!

I have had a look at the site. There is a .deb file available and that is the one that you have to download. Remember for future use that Ubuntu is based on Debian and "deb" files are very easy to install just by a double click.

Root privileges means that (in Ubuntu) you use "sudo" (super user do) before a command that requires root privileges.

Ok. After I double click on the .deb file ( deb package file size / md5sum
pipslite_1.4.0-3_i386.deb?), I get the following message: Error: Wrong architecture '¡386' on the package installer. What next? Many thanks.

Are you using 64 bit?

To check your architecture type the following command into a terminal window (Applications, Accessories, Terminal):

uname -m

Yes, using the command:- uname -m - the terminal reads: x86_64.ç
What next boss?

Yes, using the command:"uname -m" , the terminal reads: x86_64. I suppose that means I'm using 64 bit?
What next boss?

Still in a terminal, copy and paste:

sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture pipslite_1.4.0-3_i386.deb

you will be asked for your password.

If the system complains about missing libraries, please take notes.

Do I have to unzip the file using archive manager, and if so, where should I extract the files to?
When I paste: sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture pipslite_1.4.0-3_i386.deb, I get the following message: error processing pipslite_1.4.0-3_i386.deb (--install):
 cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
 pipslite_1.4.0-3_i386.deb

I've downloaded some .deb tools from synaptic management and now when I type: sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture pipslite_1.4.0-3_i386.deb,, I now get this message: dpkg: status database area is locked by another process. Any ideas?

I've just tried again and I get the following message: dpkg: error processing pipslite_1.4.0-3_i386.deb (--install):
 cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
 pipslite_1.4.0-3_i386.deb

Please open a terminal and type (better copy and paste the row below):

find . | grep -i pipslite

Please copy result here...

Yesterday I was trying to install Gutenprint and I think I succeeded because in printer configuration the device URI is: usb://EPSON/Stylus%20Office%20BX300F and the make and model is :Epson Stylus BX300F- CUPS+Gutenprint V5.0.2 simplified ....could this be a problem?
After typing in your commands into the terminal this is wht I get: Processing triggers for libc6 ...

The printer still doesn't work. What next?

ok. Now what I have in Printer configuration local host:
Description: Stylus_Office BX300F
Location: linuxpc
Device URI: pipslitelp:/var/run/pipslitelp0
Make and model: Epson Stylus Office BX300F - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.2
The printer now prints out the test page, but when I try and print a document, nothing happens.
I feel we're getting closer. What next?

When I go to: http://localhost:631/printers/, this is the message when I try and print the test page:
Stylus_Office_BX300F (Default Printer) "Gutenprint: The version of Gutenprint software installed (5.2.3) does not match the PPD file (5.0.2).". However, when I go to the printer configuration and click on the Print self-test page, it works. But I still can't print anything but the self-test page.

Good morning Guy,

Great to read of your success so far.

With your printer powered ON in a terminal type: pipslite-install

This will generate a necessary file (see section 6.3 of the Readme) and may entail a reboot.

You know, the installation for the scanner portion is still to come.

Hola Andre
I did what you said and the first pipslite install window that appeared said: Collected printer info required to build PPD file. I clicked on continue and got the following: PPD file has been registered to usr/share/ppd.
Printer name to be registered to CUPS is Stylus OfficeBX 300F. Please register the printer to CUPS!
Question: how do I do that?
I tried rebooting and the printer still didn't print anything but the self-test page. Is this because I need to register it with CUPS before it prints?
Hope I'm not driving you up the wall!

  Hi again Andre,
Just to remind you:
When I go to: http://localhost:631/printers/, this is the message when I try and print the test page:
Stylus_Office_BX300F (Default Printer) "Gutenprint: The version of Gutenprint software installed (5.2.3) does not match the PPD file (5.0.2).". However, when I go to the printer configuration on the computer and click on the Print self-test page, it works. But I still can't print anything but the self-test page.

The printer is already on the database with CUPS as you mentioned above.

Check your settings in System, Administration, Printing to see that the Epson is identified there.

Then go to System, Administration, Users and Groups, unlock with your password, click on your name to highlight the entry, click on Properties and then on the User Privileges tab. Check that Manage Printers is ticked. Then close.

... and NO, you are not driving me up the wall. Long range help is always difficult to provide and because we all live in different parts of the world there will be gaps because of time zone differences. As my day nears its end, perhaps Marco will lead you further.

The command "pipslite-install" is supposed to create a new PPD file (PostScript Printer Description).

The version of the cupsys-driver-gutenprint in Hardy Heron is 5.0.2 whereas in Intrepid Ibex it is 5.2.0. I do not have a copy of Jaunty Jackalope to check but it would be a reasonable guess to think that Jaunty's driver is a later version.

I have read that the BX300F installs as plug and play in Intrepid and Jaunty.

Epson is identified in settings in System, Administration, Printing.
There are 2 possible Epson entries: Epson Stylus Office BX600FW - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.2 and Epson Stylus Office BX600FW - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.2 Simplified. The device URI: pipslitelp:/var/run/pipslitelp0.
However, it continues to only print the self test page, nothing else.
I went to System, Administration, Users and Groups, clicked on my name to highlight the entry, clicked on Properties and then on the User Privileges tab and checked that Manage Printers was ticked. Still nothing.
Any ideas?

Some more info: when I open Document print status all the jobs are stopped. When I click on reprint, it says "processing" and after a second or two the status is stopped again. Sometimes when I click on reprint I get a message about cups host not being able to connect or something like that.

When I go to: http://localhost:631/printers/, this is the message when I try and print the test page:
Stylus_Office_BX300F (Default Printer) "Gutenprint: The version of Gutenprint software installed (5.2.3) does not match the PPD file (5.0.2)."

One more thing: I have Gutenprint 5.2.3. in the trash and it won't delete.

More info: I used the "search for files" and found 445 Gutenprint files in File System. These can't be deleted either.

The printer works!!!!!!!!
Can you help me with the scanner installation process?

Great !!!!
Would yo please outline what you did to achieve this? It could be helpful to others.

Now for the scanner:

Before you do anything else, you must install "XSane Image Scanner: which you will find in Applications, Add/Remove.

Then go back to http://www.avasys.jp/lx-bin2/linux_e/spc/DL2.do and download the iscan file. A 64-bit .deb version is available.

To install this file via a terminal type: sudo dpkg --install iscan_2.20.0-6_amd64.deb

Don't be too hasty to delete files from your file system. To delete a file from your Garbage bin can be done in several ways - try this first: In a terminal type "sudo nautilus" (without the quotes) and then delete your trash.

I'll try and remember what I did for the printer set-up.
Regarding the scanner:
I was able to open and install the scanner package just by doublw clicking.
When I open "XSane Image Scanner" I click on the epson for available devices and I get the message: ERROR: failed to open device epkowa:usb:002:003. Access to resource has been denied.
Can you help?

OK!!! Now the scanner works too!!!!
Is there anything I need to know about setting up the Fax application?
Many thanks for all your help so far. I really appreciate it:

Hi.

Any ideas?

I have never tried to set up fax on my multi-function centre (HP) so I cannot help you there except to provide you with some URLs:

http://www.hylafax.org/content/Main_Page
http://www.hylafax.org/archive/2007-11/msg00144.php

There is also GFax (available in Add/Remove).

Since you are running Hardy Heron, you should not be getting updates for the previous version Gutsy Gibbon. Go to System, Administration, Software Sources and open the Updates tab. On the bottom of that screen under Release upgrade, select "Long term support releases only". Then close.

New questions should be posted as such (otherwise this thread will never be solved and reach a conclusion).

Hi Andre
You're not going to believe it, but after upgrading to ubuntu 8.10 the printer doesn't work again. The scanner works fine. I think that during installation of the 8.10, there were a couple of windows giving me to replace or keep some files or maybe configurations. I probably did something wrong there. What's your advice?

The printer state on printer properties is: Idle. Can't write page 1 image. Hope the info helps.

Thanks Andre!
