Dell 720 photo printer, can't configure to work

Post by catilley »

I downloaded the recommended driver for my Dell 720 photo printer, but how do I apply the download? Not knowing what to do, I saved it, and it's on my home page. This has always been a problem for me with all Linux distros, applying downloads. Everything else works perfect in Mint. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Get the appropriate .deb files from here : http://dgtlmoon.com/dell_720_printer_le ... bian_sarge

Click the "Computer" icon to open the Nautilus file manager, navigate to the directory to where you downloaded the files, right click on those .deb files and choose "Open with Gdebi installer...". Easy peasy.....

Then open a browser and navigate to http://localhost:631 and install the printer.
