Printing / Re: Howto enable SULD drivers ...

Last post by ellepdesk - September 29, 2021, 08:51:19

I think I found something, it seems raspbian uses a custom version of gcc-8-base, 8.3.0-6+rpi1, where the amd64 version is just 8.3.0-6.

From what I figure apt requires the foreign package versions to EXACTLY match the native version, otherwise installation will fail.

It seems my other boards run a baseline gcc-8-base from armbian.

If I find the time I will try to prepare a docker image, that is the only way out of this I can think of.

Hi, I found a raspberrypi running raspbian buster in my house, so I'm trying the procedure there.

Can you post the result of 'sudo apt update' to verify something?

Scanner Server (Scan to PC) / Re: Scan to PC is dead

I cannot your answer you question about M_PDF, but perhaps someone else will respond.

That said, even a limited function script may be of interest, so I encourage you to share what you have.  You might want to do so in a new thread, though.

Scanner Server (Scan to PC) / Re: Scan to PC is dead

Last post by mak2109 - September 28, 2021, 13:21:31

Sorry to revive this old post.
Maybe there is someone that reads it and hopefully gives an answer.

I have a M2070W and whished to use the "Scan_to_PC" function with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
After analyzing the tcpdump I could ask better questions and found this forum.
I downloaded the kit, noticed the python problems and can confirm the death of the python approach.

Therefore I wrote a bash script using wget, snmpget and scanimage and it works nearly as expected.
The only thing is that the M_PDF function is not yet implemented (only S_PDF).
I did not find the tcp packets, that handles the dialog about scanning the following pages.
So only one page can be scanned at a time. Multi pdf pages have to be made in an additional manual step.

Has this feature (M_PDF) been implemented in your distributed package?
How is that dialog implemented?
Any hint is appreciated.

If somebody is intrested in my sh solution, I could upload my script.

(As an aside, I think I have my printer working with CUPS using the hints in the last post of this page: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=1031295 )

Certainly.  These are with the i386 options, but the equivalents were the same when I tried amd64.

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb [arch=armhf] http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/ buster main contrib non-free rpi
# Uncomment line below then 'apt-get update' to enable 'apt-get source'
#deb-src http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/ buster main contrib non-free rpi

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
deb [arch=i386] http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main
deb http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/ buster main
# Uncomment line below then 'apt-get update' to enable 'apt-get source'
#deb-src http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/ buster main

Can you post the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ?

I'd like to compare them to mine.

I have personally succeeded in installing the amd64 binaries on both a arm32 debian based box, as well as an arm64 Ubuntu based box.

suld-driver2-1.00.39:i386 : Depends: libxml2:i386 but it is not going to be installed
                             Depends: libstdc++6:i386 but it is not going to be installed

Those are all standard Debian packages, so perhaps you do not have the Debian main repository enabled, or the equivalent for a different distribution?  It is the universe repository for Ubuntu and derivatives, but I'm not sure how Raspberry-specific distributions are configured.

Looks like no luck with i386 either:

```
apt install suld-driver2-1.00.39:i386
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Thanks bchemnet, that's exactly what I'm working on now - good to know that I'm not on the wrong track!
