Thread: Distorted Scanner Lexmark S305


when tried scanning in lexmark impact s300-400 series came out distorted instead of normal under ubuntu 12.10. when use printer-scanner on other computer works fine scanning stuff in normal. think may driver issue not having support lexmark impact s305 series, tried installing different driver different series substitute not being there in drivers list.

during initial printer setup section couldn't find necessary drivers particular lexmark model. it's sorta new-ish printer bought on year ago. couldn't find drivers through searching manually, , checked lexmark site linux drivers couldn't find, did link me external source had deb file, didn't work except adding support work scanner part of it.

here's looks distorted scanning. left open scanner bed see it's doing when scans, , scanning bar doesn't appear broken in way, worked should when scanning, appears linux driver problem, , not having right 1 installed work.
