Driver L6170

[Maija]

I updated to 20.04 a week back, and I can no longer print to our network printer. The printer shows up in settings, but any time I try to print something, it fails. I have tried printing from Chrome, Document Viewer, and Libre Office. In Chrome, the printer does not even appear. In the latter two, the name shows up, but printing fails.

I have removed the printer and added it again. I have uninstalled ippusbxd and tried re-adding the printer. I have installed the Epson Linux drivers. Every time, the printer is detected, but something fails in the process of adding it and I still cannot print.

It was working perfectly in 18.04 for a year. There is a lot of information on fixing HP printers in 20.04 lying around, but none for Epson. The only thing I have not tried that I saw suggested is installing 20.04 from scratch because that seems rather extreme for a printing problem. Thank you for any help you can offer.

Same issue. My solution is to run CUPS from a web browser ( :631/printers/), find the printer there, rename it, then save. Now, open Printers app, go to properties, change device URI to App Socket/HP JetDirect. Put the printer's IP address in. I then set a reserved address in the router so things don't change.

If you're using Windows and you've installed a Epson driver, VueScan's built-in drivers won't conflict with this. If you haven't installed a Windows driver for this scanner, VueScan will automatically install a driver.

Printer stops printing unexpectedlyHead cleaning, ink charging, or ink drying is in progressCheck to see if the Pause light is flashing. If so, the printer is in the process of head cleaning, ink charging or ink drying. During head cleaning, ink charging, and ink drying, PLEASE WAIT appears on the LCD.

Release the paper lever first. Then, open the top cover if necessary and remove the jammed paper. If TURN PRINTER PWR OFF AND THEN ON appears on the LCD, turn the printer off, leave it for a while, and then turn it on again. See Clearing paper jams.

The printer does not turn on or stay onWhen the Pause light does not come on and mechanism initialization does not start even when the Power button is pressed to turn on the printer, try the following solutions for the problem.

• Turn off the printer and make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the printer.

• Make sure your outlet works and is not controlled by a wall switch or timer.

• Make sure the supplied voltage to the printer matches the rating voltage labeled on the printer. If not, turn off the printer and unplug the power cord immediately. Contact your dealer for assistance. See Contacting Customer Support.

Caution:If the supplied voltage and rating voltage do not match, do not plug the printer back in again, as damage may occur.
