I need printer driver for Epson Stylus T27

[mbavyka]

After connecting the printer (Epson Stylus T27), a driver for a different model (Epson Stylus Scan 2500) is installing.

Ubuntu Version:
Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS

Open Printing Epson Stylus T27 driver page

Epson Stylus T27 printer driver download page

I don’t have an Epson printer to test with, so I can’t speak to the suitability or functionality of this deb package of the T27 printer driver. I can say that the package installs on 24.04.3 ok.

There is a printer utility on the download page, but no driver.

Hi and welcome to the Ubuntu community

The Epson Stylus T27 is an older printer model, and unfortunately Epson does not provide official Linux drivers specifically for it anymore. That’s why Ubuntu is trying to install a driver for a “similar” Epson model (Stylus Scan 2500) automatically.

Here are a few things you can try:

Use the generic Epson driver (recommended)
Install the printer-driver-gutenprint package, which supports many older Epson inkjet printers:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install printer-driver-gutenprint

After installing, remove the printer and add it again. When asked for a driver, choose a Gutenprint Epson Stylus driver (closest match).

Thank you very much. I choosed Epson Stylus T21 driver from gutenprint and it worked.

Did you click the “Proceed to Download” button? That takes you to the page with the User License Agreement and checkbox which, when you click it, makes another “Download” button available.
