Re: [Bug 1325565] Re: Since the recent update to CUPS my Epson S20 printer no longer works

 

Dear Pascal,

the problems began when I did the fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit 
in April, ( a fresh install rather than an upgrade). There are some 
large log files which record that, which I have attached.

I am sure I remember a cups update since that date, which I hoped would 
sort out the problem, but it did not.

Here is the result of the debug output

Title:
  Since the recent update to CUPS my Epson S20 printer no longer works

Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
  Release:	14.04
  cups:
    Installed: 1.7.2-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 1.7.2-0ubuntu1

          500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  Before the recent update the Epson S20 printer worked perfectly, since
  the update I have only a basic printer menu and the printer does not
  work at all. Has its driver been removed from the packages? Will they
  be re-instated please?
