Ik heb de standaard CUPS al geïnstalleerd, maar daar staat de printer driver voor mijn model niet tussen. Ik heb wel, na even googlen, een oude website teruggevonden met enkele instructies op die gaan over een gelijkaardig model. Ik probeer het te ontcijferen, maar ik heb niet veel ervaring op het gebied van Linux. Enig idee of dit mij zou kunnen verder helpen?
"Installing Dell V515w Printer on Arch Linux

Dell printers can be a challenge to install on some Linux distributions...
However, once you figure out the key files, it makes it a little bit easier to make things happen. The steps here are basically hacks that I went through until I could figure out what was going on. Here are come KEY bits of information to get things going:
Summary of Requirements
• You will need the "dpkg" package from the AUR
• You will need the printer drivers for Ubuntu from Dell's website:
http://support.us.dell.com/support/...dateid=-1&formatid=-1&source=-1&fileid=439666
• You will need CUPS installed and configured (default configuration is fine):
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CUPS
• You will also need a bit of patience
Install dpkg (Debian Package Manager)
To install dpkg, you need to get it from the AUR (Arch User Repository). The easiest way is to follow these steps:
echo "[archlinuxfr]" >> /etc/pacman.conf
echo "Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/x86_64" >> /etc/pacman.conf
pacman -Syu yaourt
At this point, yaourt should now be installed. Now to install dpkg (NEVER EVER RUN YAOURT AS ROOT!!!):
When you run the following command, select "dpkg" - at the time of this article, it was number 3 on the list:
yaourt dpkg
No need to modify the makepkg or anything - just let it do its thing.
Getting the .deb file from the Dell .sh installer
This part is a little tricky. Do these steps (as regular user - not root) and it "should" work:
• sh dell-inkjet-09-driver-1.0-1.i386.deb.sh
• Open up your user's home directory (use the GUI for this)
• Go into the lua* directory that was created by the installer
• As you press next in the wizard, you will notice some files that pop up in that directory. When they do, quickly copy the .deb files to your desktop or somewhere that you will remember
• I know it's tricky, but keep trying. It worked for me
Run the .deb file
dpkg -i --force-architecture dell-inkjet-09-driver-1.0-1.i386.deb
Check if "dlnet" exists in /usr/lib/cups/backend
ls /usr/lib/cups/backend/dlnet
If the dlnet file does exist, then you can now run system-config-printer and add your printer (use Dell Network Backend as the socket when the list comes up:
dlnet://192.168.1.6 <-- Change that with the IP of your printer
When it asks for a driver file, select the Dell_V310V510_Series.ppd file (if you can't find it, run this command):
find / -name Dell_V310V510_Series.ppd
If the dlnet file is not in /usr/lib/cups/backend...
Then you will have to extract the .deb files and
bsdtar -xf *.i386.deb; tar -xzvf data.tar.gz; cd usr/local/dell/dell09/bin; cp dlnet /usr/lib/cups/backend/
Now proceed to the step above this one and configure your printer.
If something didn't work for you, or if I missed something...
I wrote this article after spending about 20 hours trying to get this printer to work. Because of this, there are probably some things I forgot - but I believe the most important stuff is written here. If you notice anything off or that needs to be added, please just reply using the comments area below."
