I want to connect my Samsung M2070 printer to my computer running Ubuntu but I didn't find any up-to-date solutions. I followed these instructions on the forum about another printer, the printer appears in the printers list, I linked it to the ppd file, but nothing happens when I try to print a page. What can I do now? (I'm new to Linux) Thank you.

  • What does the lpstat -t command show? Point a web browser to http://localhost:631/admin and add your printer there. – waltinator Mar 25 '20 at 04:30
  • Hi! I added the printer as you said and I tried again to print a file (the printer showed up in the printers list). But it says "Printing was stopped" (in French l'impression a été arrêtée"). – yeti66 Apr 18 '20 at 09:55

There's a good step-by-step description of what to do on the German ubuntuusers forum:

https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/installation-von-samsung-m2070fw-anschluss-via/

Go to the last post of this thread (from "24. August 2019 21:47") and follow the steps described in that post carefully. You might not be able to understand the German, but you will be able to fix your problem.

  • While it is good to add information via links, it is even better to include the info from the link into your answer, because links can disappeaer. – zx485 Mar 19 '21 at 02:04
