Dear Sirs, I need your help: my daughter gave me her computer whose operating system is ‘Manjaro Linux’ (release 24.2.1). The problem is that I can’t use the printer (Epson WorkForce WF-2510 mod. C471D) because I can’t configure it (I don’t know where I can find the drivers to download). Can you help me by explaining patiently how to do it? Thank you in advance
It looks as if this driver package from the AUR will support your printer. To build it, use the following command:
pamac build epson-inkjet-printer-201211w
The AUR must first be configured in Pamac; please see the following Manjaro Wiki articles:
Feel free to ask again here if anything needs clarifying further; I’m sure someone will help when they can.
