Samsung SL-C430W & Ubuntu Cinnamon Remix 20.04 printer errors.

globetrotterdk · 03-05-2021, 07:25 AM

The printer has been working fine since I installed Ubuntu Cinnamon Remix 20.04, but I haven't been printing much. Today, there is an extra printer entry in the printer settings all of a sudden, and neither one can print a test page. What can I do to sort this out?

Printer state for the one reads "Processing - The printer is not responding:", while the other reads "Idle - No suitable destination host has been found by cups-browsed."

When I try to go through the settings, the program freezes and has to be force quit. It is like CUPS has developed amnesia...

The Samsung SL-C430W printer uses the ULD printer drivers.

Its a network printer or it is attached to the PC via USB?

Thanks for that. I followed the instructions and the printer works now. I will try again tomorrow and will post if the problem returns.
