[Bug 1007864] New: Samsung ML-2165W unsupported
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1007864 Bug ID: 1007864 Summary: Samsung ML-2165W unsupported Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.2 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Printing Assignee: jsmeix@suse.com Reporter: psimons@suse.com QA Contact: jsmeix@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- Yast2 recognizes the Samsung ML-2165W USB printer correctly, but it appears to have no driver for it (even after installing Splix and all the other additional driver packages). The same printer works out-of-the-box on Ubuntu, so I reckon that suitable drivers *do* exist. (In fact, I believe Samsung is providing a driver, even, though it may not be open source.) I think it's possible that Splix has a driver for that printer, but the ancient 2.0.0 release used on Leap appparently does not. Other distributions seem to prefer the latest SVN revision 315 of the splix package since it has had many updates that were never released properly (but which do work nicely in practice). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I made you maintainer of the "splix" package in the OBS "Printing" project so that you can now "just work" directly on it (without the need for submitrequests and special approvals).
OK, thank you very much.
I cannot accept your https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/442007 because you only build it there for openSUSE_Tumbleweed
Yeah, good point. I've created a new SR (which, I suppose, I can then accept myself once all code streams have compiler successfully). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
