Make changes on the dll.conf file which located in /etc/sane.d/ by adding epkowa ( In my dll.conf, I put the epkowa below the epson and epson2.Open terminal and type lsusb to get usb identifier of your epson 元110 (mine was 04b8:1142).Make sure your epson 元110 was on and connected with your computer.Make sure the xsane application was installed properly.After the installation process was finish, there are needs several steps more to make the scanner works, which is: I search and install this packages iscan, iscan-data, and imagescan. I open the add/remove software applications (which it’s already AUR enabled) and search for epson-inkjet-printer-escpr, then installed into my computer and do the add printer process including test the printer.So this is what I do to made my Epson 元110 multi function printer works after googling and reading several websites.

It is true, that Epson provides the Linux driver for printing and scanning, but it was for OpenSuSE, RedHat/Fedora and Debian, but not for Manjaro Linux or Arch Linux. That’s it, and this is where the problem was arose. I only read that this printer has Linux driver for printing and scanning.

One thing that miss was, I did not look bit detail on how the driver was available for my Linux distribution. The decision I made to buy the multi function printer based on the ink price which is not too expensive and physically is not take place too much. When my printer and scanner was broken, I decided to buy a multi function printer despite buying separate scanner and printer. Having a multi function device such as multi function printer (print, scan, and copy) is like having a handy tool at hand.
