[SOLVED] printer driver error

cnelson2307 · 01-07-2019, 09:06 PM

i am having trouble finding the right driver for my samsung Xpress M3015DW, the list provided in cups seems to not have the printer listed and every driver i can get to half way work is giving me a strange error that somehow messes with the scaling of the project. the other error i'm getting is a SPL error with the code 11-1113. i'm finding people who say it could be the cable but i have tried 2, admittedly, very similar brandless cables with the exact same results.

What is the precise wording of the error messages and the precise conditions under which they appear?

i was trying almost every Samsung driver listed in cups, and i would either receive the error message

SPL ERROR - Please use the proper driver
POSITION : 0x2000 (8912)
SYSTEM : emul/SPL/SPL_image
LINE : 287
VERSION : v10.87.01_151202
ERROR CODE : 11-1113

or it would print a zoomed in version of the document

Have a look at the Linux printer drivers offered here...

Chose Linux for your distro and download/install the tarball package, then configure CUPS again.
