Hi
I have a Kodak ESP3 all-in-one printer. No trace of it on www.openprinting.org/printers. Does it work in Lucid please?
Thanks

Itch: Think Hula hoop, positive on top, negative on bottom, roll it. Is it a wave or a particle? Is it a photon? Is a photon a dipole? Are we all made of light!
there is info here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cupsdriverkodak/
Debian Testing(64bit) + XFCE4 AM2 5200+ ATI Radeon HD4350, 4gig RAM,320Gig and 750gig HDs
what's the difference between an answer and a solution? An answer is what they want to hear, a solution is what they don't want to hear
Thanks halitech, sorted! I'll paraphrase the process below for anybody following.
How to install a printer driver for a Kodak ESP3 AiO:-
Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/cupsdriverkodak/files/
32bit
-----
If you run 32bit take the easy route and download the c2esp08-1_i386.deb file (or latest) to Desktop, click on the file and install. Switch on printer and go to System>Administration>Printing to check all is in place.
64bit
-----
If you run 64bit then you need to make the driver. Very easy, just more steps.
Download the latest compressed tar file to Desktop. At time of writing this is c2esp08.tar.gz
Extract to Desktop and a folder will appear called c2esp08.
Before we make the file we need some other files to support the make. Open a terminal andCUPS should be installed already by default.Code:sudo apt-get install libcups2-dev build-essential cups
Navigate prompt to the folder:-Your prompt should look like thisCode:cd Desktop/c2esp08Now make your driver, first test the file set~/Desktop/c2esp08$If error free then make the driver and installCode:makeSwitch on printer and go to System>Administration>Printing to check all is in place.Code:sudo make install
MORE INFORMATION?
Look at the INSTALL file in the downloaded folder.

omg thanks to the person who made the driver and you for showing easy steps on how to build it for 64 bit! it works great for 5100!
Outstanding! Works for 64bit Lucid, ESP5250
Thanks very much - I've had this printer sitting in the box for 6 months, waiting for a driver to come available.
Wow, truly outstanding. Used the c2esp12 and installed for use with Kodak aio 5300 in Maverick RC.
I've had to switch to windows to use this printer for more than three years! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Thank you so much for the help. As you can see I am a very new user with Ubuntu. This process really just makes my decision to ditch Windows all the better. THANK YOU.
64bit does not work
