Migrasi Linux: Install printer-scanner canon di Ubuntu

Hi imigran linux!

Ada ga dari temen2 yang baru beli printer?

ciee printer baru..

Printer jaman sekarang udah keren, banyak yang udah ngerangkap sebagai scanner juga. Contohnya printer yang baru dibeli kantor saya, Canon Pixma E510. Printer bisa, scanner oke, poto copy makjoss. Saat menggunakannya sebagai printer dan mesin potocopy memang tidak ada masalah, plug n play seperti biasa. Tapi masalah timbul ketika akan digunakan sebagai scanner.

Colokan listrik? klik

tombol power? tuit

kabel usb ke komputer? ctak!

Udah tersambung dengan baik? Apa yg salah?

Saya coba cek di internet banyak blog bilang printer-scanner canon plug n play. Sampai akhirnya saya menemukan handytutorial.com, thanks a lot buddy you're a big help. Di website tersebut dijelaskan untuk menggunakan printer-scanner canon perlu diinstal terlebih dahulu drivernya. Caranya adalah sebagai berikut.

1. Tambahkan repository canon

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:michael-gruz/canon-stable

2. Update repository-nya

sudo apt-get update

3. Install driver printer kamu sesuai tipe-nya (pake fung Ctrl+F biar gampang).

Di website tersebut cuma sampe situ tuh, tapi scanner say tetep ga mau jalan. Setelah saya cek, ternyata di Ubuntu software center telah disediakan aplikasi scanner sendiri untuk canon. Jadi tidak bisa pakai aplikasi scanner bawaan Ubuntu 'Simple Scan'.
