Question Epson Stylus Sx235W


I havea problem with my printer, when i want to print something the document still stands in the que. And the printer says connecting.

Wifi led is green en sometimes orange blinking. But when i want to make a scan there is no problem.

Several times new installed but the problem stays. I am using Deepin Linux, based on debian 9.

After e fresh install of deepin en the printer there was no problem at all.

So what could be the problem ?

The support page I've found for this doesn't describe an orange-blinking wfi light

so perhaps your printer has some kind of hardware issue to sort out. In any case check your user manual first.

If you really believe it to be a problem within CUPS, then also check the CUPS error_log file (/var/log/cups/error_log).

When i am at home i check that cups file.

Other people in the house could normaly print with the printer, but they are working with windows
So hardware should be not the problem

The flashing orange wifi light indicates a problem.

Have you tried connecting via a USB printer cable?

In Deepin, under Printers, also try removing the existing printer and then click on Add printer.
