Ubuntu kyocera printers
In Ubuntu 14.04, my Kyocera P2040dn printer prints only from the user that installed the driver. How to make it print under other users?
Solution 1:
The installation should work flawlessly if you follow these steps:
- Download the
.zip
archive for your printer model from www.kyoceradocumentsolutions.com - Search the archive for the
.ppd
file for your model and extract it. -
Move it to
/usr/share/cups/model/Kyocera
:sudo mv /path/to/"Kyocera ECOSYS P2040dn.PPD" /usr/share/cups/model/Kyocera/
-
Restart
cups
:sudo systemctl restart cups
- Add the printer using your desktop environment's GUI, be careful to use the new
.ppd
file.
