Sorry for interrupting with a different package, but could someone test epson-inkjet-printer-escpr2-bin? I’m not sure if it even works, and I’d like a definite answer before putting in more effort.

@kb8doa: I don't know. After the initial clone I normally only do a "git pull", followed by "makepkg" and then "pacman -U package_file" to install. I did that yesterday and everything worked. Did you try to delete the whole directory and start fresh, with a git clone, yet?

It says that I need to do a git pull <remote> <branch>
What would I type here?

See SUPPORTED-PRINTERS. It seems that with the current version, as of this writing 1.2.26-1, ET-2830 Series and ET-2840 Series are supported. I don't know if an ET-2800 Series exists, but if it does, this would indicate that it's not supported.

Is Et-2800 supported?

Sorry guys, but the previous 1.2.18-1 was probably a mistake by Epson, because after a few days 1.2.17-1 was the current version. Now 1.2.18-1 is out (dated 2024-10-07 in NEWS) and it is the new version, replacing the "mistake" version 1.2.18-1...

@aeris: Thanks, but automake and autoconf are part of the base-devel package (see: https://archlinux.org/packages/core/any/base-devel/), and according to https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#makedepends should not be included in makedepends. Since escpr2 doesn't need autoconf and automake to run, they don't belong in the depends statement either (where they would again be excluded because they are in base-devel anyhow)...

Missing autoconf and automake as build dependencies

@kozika: thanks! I'm not deep enough into Arch to decide if it would be best to incorporate the change, e.g. I don't know whether there are any potential side effects. @AngryUbuntuNerd: what do you think?

This package cannot be built with GCC14
Changing the options in PKGBUILD: 33 as follows worked:
make CFLAGS="-Wno-implicit-function-declaration"

With every release I update the keywords (see Package Details above) containing a list of all Epson printer series supported by this driver. Additionally, SUPPORTED-PRINTERS at the GitLab repository gitlab.com/at.gentoo.repo/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr2 also contains a list of supported printers.
Most Epson Inkjet printers are covered by either this package or epson-inkjet-printer-escpr. If your printer is not supported by this package, be sure to check the other one. You may also want to consult the Wiki, specifically CUPS and CUPS/Printer-specific problems#Epson.
Note: all packages from AUR require
base-devel, please read Arch User Repository as a user or PKGBUILD#makedepends for details on PKGBUILD.
