Samsung SCX-4824FN - can't communicate with the pc SOLVED
Posted: Sat Dec 22, 2012 4:04 pm
I was for more than 2 years a linux mint 11 user.
Despite a few minor problems my multifunction printer was working ok (either printing or scaning).
I decided to install linux mint 14 cinamon today.
Problem:
menu>preferences>printers
it auto detects my printer either through usb or ethernet cable.
Through usb, the scaner works fine.
But when i press print either it will print constantly 10ns of pages with written symbols on them, or it will show a message at top right, which is saying "printing is complete" and there has been no printing.
actually, the indication on the printer goes blue, which means that is has made contact with the pc, but it doesnt print.
I have to say that this printer model is widely used.
