I can't print when I

installed both Linux

Print Package (LPP) and

MFP driver on the same

machine

simultaneously.

• Since both Linux Printer Package and MFP driver make

a symbolic link to "lpr" printing command, which is

commonly used on Unix clones, it is not recommended

to use both package on the same machine.

• If you still want to use both packages simultaneously,

please install the LPP first.

• If you want to uninstall only one of them, please

uninstall both packages and install that one you want

to use again.

• If you don't want to uninstall MFP driver and install it

again, you may make the necessary symbolic link

yourself. Please, log in as root user and invoke the

following command:

ln -sf /usr/local/bin/samsung/slpr /usr/bin/lpr

Can't scan via Gimp

Front-end.

• Check if Gimp Front-end has "Xsane:Device dialog.." on

the "Acquire" menu. If not, you should install Xsane plug-
in for Gimp on the your computer. You can find Xsane

plug-in package for Gimp on Linux distribution CD or
Gimp home page. For the detail information, refer to the
Help for Linux distribution CD or Gimp Front-end
application.

If you wish to use other kind of scan application, refer to
the Help for application.

I encounter error “Cannot

open MFP port device file”

when printing a

document.

• Please avoid changing print job parameters (via SLPR

utility, for example) while a print job is in progress.

Known versions of CUPS server break the print job
whenever print options are changed and then try to
restart the job from the beginning. Since Linux MFP
driver locks MFP port while printing, the abrupt
termination of the driver keeps the port locked and
therefore unavailable for subsequent print jobs. If this

situation occurred, please, try to release the MFP port.
