Printer not created

If no new e-STUDIO printer is created when you follow the installation instructions in the Installation and Operation Guide, try the following:

  1. Check that the MFP is supported.
  2. Check that the MFP is connected to the PC via one of the PC’s USB ports.
  3. Power the e-STUDIO MFP off and then back on.
    This will run the /usr/sbin/estudio_update script (as root) which:
    • Checks for connected MFPs and creates CUPS printer drivers for supported models if they don’t already exist.
    • Registers the e-STUDIO MFP scanner driver with the installed SANE scanner system.
  4. If no new printer is still created:
    • Try adding the following parameter to the Linux kernel’s command line and restarting Linux:
      pci=noacpi
      This has been found to be effective when using Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop Version 9 and may also allow other USB2 devices to be detected more successfully.
  5. Power the e-STUDIO MFP off and then back on, to cause Linux to re-run the /usr/sbin/estudio_update script as noted above.
