kyocera-fs-1x2x-mfp-gdi

Kyocera GDI printer driver package for Arch Linux and CUPS.

This project packages the Linux GDI driver files for a group of legacy Kyocera FS-1xxx printers and installs them in the standard CUPS locations. The package is distributed as an Arch Linux PKGBUILD.

Supported printers

The package currently installs PPD files for:

• Kyocera FS-1020MFP
• Kyocera FS-1025MFP
• Kyocera FS-1040
• Kyocera FS-1060DN
• Kyocera FS-1120MFP
• Kyocera FS-1125MFP

All of these models use the bundled rastertokpsl CUPS filter.

Requirements

• Arch Linux or another Arch-compatible environment with makepkg
• cups
• x86_64

The package declares cups as a runtime dependency and is built for x86_64.

Build and install

Clone the repository, then build the package with makepkg:

git clone <repository-url>
cd kyocera-fs-1x2x-mfp-gdi
makepkg -si

After installation, restart CUPS if necessary:

sudo systemctl restart cups

The installed PPD files are placed under:

/usr/share/cups/model/Kyocera/

The CUPS filter is installed as:

/usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertokpsl

Printer setup

Add the printer through your desktop's printer settings or through the CUPS web interface at http://localhost:631/.

When selecting a driver manually, use the PPD matching the exact printer model, for example:

/usr/share/cups/model/Kyocera/Kyocera_FS-1040GDI.ppd

Package details

Current package version:

1.1203-1

The PKGBUILD fetches the driver archive from Kyocera Document Solutions and extracts the Russian 64-bit driver payload before installing the required PPD files and rastertokpsl filter.
