Creating ebuild for Samsung SCX-4200. Now I can print via cups and scan via xsane. Please, if someone use this MFP, report if it works installed on the clean system. Also, if someone installed full drivers and apps from Samsung, pls report me what are the files in at_opt (Configurator and co.) I don't know what category to select - printer drivers are in net-print, scanner drivers are in media-gfx, so I select app-misc. Needed tasks - create simple script for architecture detecting (i386 or x86_64). Check samsung apps. Maybe set fetch restrictions. Find out driver license. Find out if we need to modify /etc/hotplug/usb/libsane.usermap and/or /etc/udev/rules.d/99-libsane.rules. Reproducible: Always Printer was started quite quickly, there were problems with scanner. There was main problem with symlinks, but it was detected quickly with ldd * | grep "not found". So, my work was based on http://jacobo.tarrio.org/Samsung_SCX-4200_on_Debian, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_use_the_scanner_and_printer_Samsung_SCX4200 and a bit http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=439815 I was trying to get device or libusb identification. /etc/hotplug/usb/libsane.usermap #Samsung SCX-4200 libusbscanner 0x0003 0x04e8 0x341b 0x0000 0x0000 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00000000 /etc/udev/rules.d/99-libsane.rules # Samsung SCX-4200 SYSFS{idVendor}=="04e8", SYSFS{idProduct}=="341b", MODE="660", GROUP="scanner" BTW, why in /etc/udev/permissions.d/50-udev.permissions we have 'root:root and not 'root:scanner ? # scanner devices scanner:root:root:0600 usb/scanner*:root:root:0600 Needed files: http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/DR/200701/20070110181304562_UnifiedLinuxDriver.tar.gz http://jacobo.tarrio.org/files/soft/scx/fix-nopar-scx4200-2.00.92-2007011301.tar.gz http://jacobo.tarrio.org/files/soft/scx/fix-nopar-scx4200-2.00.92-2007011301.tar.gz.asc Need use-flag fix-nopar to apply or not binary patch.

Created attachment 107836 [details] app-misc/smfp-scx4200-bin/smfp-scx4200-bin-2.00.92.ebuild This is my working ebuild. Expected MFP_ARCH is i386. Works for me (both printer and scanner). Also there is disputable moment with commenting out geniusvp2 backend. Need to be checked.
Sorry for spamming here, have not mentioned original bug and your reply. I'll try to join our ebuilds in the original bug.
