drivers for Epson CX5400 ????
 

dang it got an epson CX5400 ( CX3200 had fatal bug )
the 54' was Epson's final solution
my trouble is I can't find a driver for it in KDE or CUPS

Has any one out there gotten one to work
if so could you provide a detail of how??

looks like the C80 driver works http://linuxprinting.org/show_printe...-Stylus_CX5400

thanks I found it over the weekend
apparently I forgot to wax old cx3200 config
and build new one for the 5400

thanks
working on scanner recognition rite now

tried pasting
usb 0x4b8 0x808
in the /etc/sane.d/epson.config file
still not recognizing the scanner

i know it's not recommended, but i got it to work with xsane... if i only know what files need a chmod i would use it as a regular user...
any help would be nice...

i'm still working on the printer... any short howto would be nice ;)

such a big forum for no answers.............

ertz

on the cx5400 , tell your box its a C80 or C84 epson
that will make the printer work

I'm still working on the scanner

i got the cx5400 to work with the cx5200 driver...(it came in fedora1)...did u ever get the scanner to work..?

I've had the CX5400 scanner running with the iscan frontend, distributed by Epson Kowa (they have an English site too). It uses the SANE backend. For a mysterious reason I cannot get it back after a mayor crash. I was a bit surprised that it worked already that I forgot to write down the steps. So try it and please give this forum some feed back, to help others (me for instance) The C84 driver for printing works fine.

I'm working with Mandrake 10 on a AMD driven 1000MHz desktop.

I have SUSE 9.1 and the printer works great, but I am having trouble with getting Xsane to recognize the scanner. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
