Kyocera FS-1120D printer installation

Every attempt to install Kyocera FS-1120D printer driver in Ubuntu 18-4 has failed.
Downloading the driver installation from Kyocera's website and attempting to install using 'kyodialog_5.0-0_i386.deb results in no available printer. Installing it manually in terminal using either aptitude or apt-get install result in missing dependencies and no printer to add.



Brute force copying Kyocera_FS-1120D.PPD to /usr/share/cups/model or /usr/share/cups/model/Kyocera does not provide any printer to be added in Settings > Devices > Printers. I am surprised that I can't get a printer to work even though I have the '.PPD' file.



I have also tried CUPS both in a terminal and in a browser (CUPS > admin), no luck. Any thoughts?

  • I'm not sure about 1120, but FS-1118MFP works with driver from repository and with system-config-printer. Did you tried to click on Provide PPD file in Change Driver dialog and specify it manually?

  • @N0rbert Thanks for the suggestion, I didn't know system-config-printer. However, the Change Driver dialog appear only once the printer is installed. When I run system-config-printer in a terminal, I get a 'Printers - localhost' dialog saying 'There are no printers configured yet.' 'Add'. The only way around would be to install another model and then introduce the 1120 ppd file - not an obvious approach.

I tried




Settings | Printers | Tools Cog | Printer Details




and then




Install PPD File | Location
and in location pasted a PPD in my home folder.
This didn't work, perhaps because of permissions.




I also tried direct copy of PPD file into /usr/share/cups/model, and that didn't work.



But after I did system-config-printer, the printer because visible. I suspect that




Settings | Printers | Tools Cog | Printer Details
assumes that the correct PPD file is already in the correct location.
