Title: Dell printer
Post by: rustydad on April 07, 2020, 09:28:31 PM

Hello All   I'm trying to install a Dell v305 printer/scanner(only one avail.at this time)  to my Linux Lite system. On the initial setup the Linux lite and Ubuntu 18.04 will find the printer, however there are no drivers to connect the printer. Are there any generic printer drivers available to connect Linux lite or Ubuntu 18.04. Are there other printers that are more compatible to linux ??

Unfortunately no, unless the guy in the first post is correct - http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Dell/Dell-V305 (http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Dell/Dell-V305)
