Common Linux problems

Problem

 

Possible Cause and Solution

 

 

 

The machine does not

Check if the printer driver is installed in

print

 

your system. Open Unified Driver

 

 

configurator and switch to the Printers

 

 

tab in Printers configuration window to

 

 

look at the list of available printers. Make

 

 

sure that your machine is displayed on

 

 

the list. If not, please, invoke Add new

 

 

printer wizard to set up your device.

 

Check if the printer is started. Open

 

 

Printers configuration and select your

 

 

machine on the printers list. Look at the

 

 

description in the Selected printer pane.

 

 

If its status contains “(stopped)” string,

 

 

please, press the Start button. After that

 

 

normal operation of the printer should be

 

 

restored. The “stopped” status might be

 

 

activated when some problems in

 

 

printing occurred. For instance, this

 

 

could be an attempt to print document

 

 

when port is claimed by a scanning

 

 

application.

 

Check if the port is not busy. Since

 

 

functional components of MFP (printer

 

 

and scanner) share the same I/O

 

 

interface (port), the situation of

 

 

simultaneous access of different

 

 

“consumer” application to the same port

 

 

is possible. To avoid possible conflicts,

 

 

only one of them at a time is allowed to

 

 

gain control over the device. The other

 

 

“consumer” will encounter “device busy”

 

 

response. You should open ports

 

 

configuration and select the port

 

 

assigned to your printer. In the Selected

 

 

port pane you can see if the port is

 

 

occupied by some other application. If

 

 

this is the case, you should wait for

 

 

completion of the current job or should

 

 

press Release port button, if you are

 

 

sure that the present owner is not

 

 

functioning properly.

 

Check if your application has special

 

 

print option such as “-oraw”. If “-oraw” is

 

 

specified in the command line parameter

 

 

then remove it to print properly. For

 

 

Gimp front-end, select “print” -> “Setup

 

 

printer” and edit command line

 

 

parameter in the command item.

 

 

 

Problem

 

Possible Cause and Solution

 

 

 

The machine does not

Check if your machine is attached to

your computer. Make sure that it is

scanners list

 

connected properly via the USB port and

 

 

is turned on.

 

Check if the scanner driver for your

 

 

machine is installed in your system.

 

 

Open Unified Driver configurator, switch

 

 

to Scanners configuration, then press

 

 

Drivers. Make sure that driver with a

 

 

name corresponding to your machine's

 

 

name is listed in the window. Check if

 

 

the port is not busy. Since functional

 

 

components of MFP (printer and

 

 

scanner) share the same I/O interface

 

 

(port), the situation of simultaneous

 

 

access of different “consumer”

 

 

application to the same port is possible.

 

 

To avoid possible conflicts, only one of

 

 

them at a time is allowed to gain control

 

 

over the device. The other “consumer”

 

 

will encounter “device busy” response.

 

 

This can usually happen while starting

 

 

scan procedure, and appropriate

 

 

message box appears.

 

To identify the source of the problem,

 

 

you should open ports configuration and

 

 

select the port assigned to your scanner.

 

 

port's symbol /dev/mfp0 corresponds to

 

 

LP:0 designation displayed in the

 

 

scanners’ options, /dev/mfp1 relates to

 

 

LP:1 and so on. USB ports start at /dev/

 

 

mfp4, so scanner on USB:0 relates to /

 

 

dev/mfp4 respectively and so forth

 

 

sequentially. In the Selected port pane

 

 

you can see if the port is occupied by

 

 

some other application. If this is the

 

 

case, you should wait for completion of

 

 

the current job or should press Release

 

 

port button, if you are sure that the

 

 

present port's owner is not functioning

 

 

properly.
