When I try printing to the Dymo, I get a message saying 'printer error' and I have to delete the document from the print queue. Make and Model: DYMO LabelWriter 330 Turbo,driverless,cups-filters 1.27.4

I can't seem to get this setup to work, and I'm not sure what the problem may be! Under Printer Properties I have:ĭevice URI: => this is exactly the same as used when setting up the printer on the PC Now, though, I would also like to print from a Debian-based Linux system (LinuxFX, specifically). Tested on OS image: -raspbian-stretch-lite.I've set up a Raspberry Pi to act as print server for a Dymo 330 Turbo LabelMaker (I did this some time ago using an article from a Dennis Sutanto Technology Blog, but the approach seems basically the same as in the current article.) This setup has been working beautifully for printing labels from a PC. This tutorial has been revised on: 2017-Oct-10

Success? You have reached the Pi Zero via Wifi! Since the SSH server should now be running, you can use an SSH client on your PC to connect to your Pi.

If you’ve configured the WiFi SSID and password correctly in the wpa_nf file, it will try to connect to your WiFi router automatically, and if your router is set up to provide IPs via DHCP, the IP address of your Pi should be visible here after a minute or so. When you plug in the dongle, apart from the loopback interface the wlan0 interface should appear. Then, unplug your USB keyboard from the USB-OTG adapter, and plug in the RTL8188eu WiFI dongle. Log in again using your display and USB keyboard, and type this: watch -n 5 ifconfig

You need to run the install.sh script to install the driver:Īfter the driver installation, run the raspi-config setup tool and set up the basic settings: sudo raspi-config 1 Change User Passwordħ Advanced Options > A1 Expand Filesystemħ Advanced Options > A3 Memory Split > 16 Log in using the display and USB keyboard again, and look for the folder you’ve coped to the boot partition. Safely remove the microSD card from your PC and insert it again to the Pi Zero. Copy this folder to the /boot/ partition of the SD card (that’s the only partition which Windows sees). Pi2B/Pi3B: 8188eu-4.9. (note the hyphen and v7 in the file name) Īfter you downloaded the file, uncompress the archive, it should be a folder.

The filename you need to download is determined by the kernel version.Īs an example for the Raspbian kernel 4.9.29(-v7)+ #1000 and driver 8188eu: On your computer you need to download the driver file. Īfter this you can shutdown the Pi again with sudo shutdown nowĪnd put the microSD card back in your computer. Log in using the display and USB keyboard (pi/raspberry), and type this command to determine the kernel version. The version and the number will be important in the next step. I use the below wpa_nf setup: ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdevĪfter the wpa_nf is created, put the microSD card into the Pi Zero, then give it power to boot up.įirst we need to determine the kernel version, which will be used to download the proper version of the 8188eu driver. In Raspbian Stretch you need these lines in wpa_nf Explained here in the Raspberry Pi Forums. This will be important at the end of the tutorial, but we do it now to take care of it.

This wpa_nf contains all the settings and credentials which allow the Pi to connect to your WiFi router. What do I need to do before I install the driver?īurn the latest Raspbian Lite image on the microSD card, and before you boot it for the first time, create the wpa_nf file on the boot partition.

The driver files are uploaded to his website, and the file’s naming convention for the necessary kernel is explained here in the corresponding Raspberry Pi forum post.

MrEngman is the developer of this solution, and he’s regularly uploading new drivers as new kernels come out. You’ll also need a microSD card (at least 2GB), and and a microUSB power source (at least 2A). You need to connect the Pi to a display via miniHDMI adapter and HDMI cable, you also need a USB-OTG adapter to connect the USB keyboard to the microUSB port of the Pi Zero. After successful connection to WiFi, you don’t need the keyboard and display anymore, and you’ll be able to use an SSH client on your computer to connect to the Pi. Unfortunately, you need a keyboard and a display connected to the Pi Zero to setup this, so you can’t go completely headless during the setup process. Last Updated on Sep 2, 2020The RTL8188eu WiFi chip is not supported in Raspbian Lite out of the box, so we need a few things to make it work, but I’ll show you how.
