[sane-devel] Unsupported devices

[carterbueford at gmx.net]

Hi,

yeah, I'll give it a try with the Xerox-mfp.

But what about the hplib, anybody any idea?
I can compile it on my mashine, but which binary do I need?

Thanks so far
Oliver

Hello,
Firstly dealing with the Samsung as I know about that. You will find the 
Xerox configuration file in a location like /etc/sane.d/xerox_mfp.conf 
(this is the case for my debian system, others may vary slightly). I 
found in my xerox_mfp.conf file (it has been updated by debian since I 
first got my Samsung CLX-3170FN) the following lines which should be 
useful to you:
#Samsung SCX-4200
usb 0x04e8 0x341b

That should be enough for your Samsung to work with sane.

As for HPLIP, I am not sure what you would need to get for installing it 
on your router, I have only used a HP psc1110 on a desktop running 
slackware and the slackware packages were enough to get it running.
