Building packages from AUR requires base-devel, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository

base-devel depends among others on autoconf, automake and make.

Hello everybody! I'm not sure if this is the right place to write this but version 1.7.21 of package is out. I tried to modify your PKGBUILD to compile the new version and apparently succeeded. The PKGBUILD that works for me is:


pkgname=epson-inkjet-printer-escpr
pkgver=1.7.21
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc='Epson Inkjet Printer Driver (ESC/P-R) for Linux'
arch=('x86_64' 'aarch64')
url='http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/search/01/search/?OSC=LX'
license=('GPL2')
depends=('cups' 'ghostscript')

prepare() {
    cd $pkgname-$pkgver

}

build() {
    cd $pkgname-$pkgver
    mv bootstrap bootstrap.wrong
    sed 's/automake/automake --add-missing/' bootstrap.wrong > bootstrap
    sh bootstrap

  ./configure \

  make

  make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install
}

Sorry, I didn't use the sudo privilege, so I used

sudo make install

and it's ok

After executing : ./configure && make && make install,

I got the following error :

/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file '/usr/local/lib/libescpr.so.1.0.0': Permission denied
make[2]: *** [Makefile:422: install-libLTLIBRARIES] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/menouer/Downloads/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr-1.7.20/lib'
make[1]: *** [Makefile:715: install-am] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/menouer/Downloads/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr-1.7.20/lib'
make: *** [Makefile:445: install-recursive] Error 1

and I didn't find the driver 1.7.20-1 installed. Thanks for help.

Add dependencies:

sudo pacman -S ipp-usb sane sane-airscan

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/ipp-usb/

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/sane/

sudo systemctl enable --now ipp-usb.service

And my EPSON L3250 printer works

hcartiaux commented on 2022-04-07 05:55 (UTC)

@electricprism, I think the et-8500 support is included in the other package epson-inkjet-printer-escpr2, look at the Epson website.

electricprism commented on 2022-04-06 23:50 (UTC)

Does this include the ET-8500 driver?

kinten108101 commented on 2022-02-15 16:38 (UTC)

@L1nx This only installs the generic driver. Perhaps you're looking for epson-printer-utility?

Sorry to bother, but I am stuck with the installation, I have a XP-352 printer/scanner. What I did so far:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr.git

cd epson-inkjet-printer-escpr

makepkg

sudo pacman -U epson-inkjet-printer-escpr-1.7.18-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

That however didn't create any new programms, or at least I didn't find anything searching for "epson" under "All Applications"

I also tried running sudo ./configure && make && make install in the folder ./src/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr-1.7.18 both as a normal user and as root. This doesn't cause any errors, but it also didn't install any new programms.
