I need help installing an Epson ET-2850 Wi-Fi printer

Hi everyone.
I need help installing an Epson ET-2850 Wi-Fi printer. Command-line installation in a Debian VM isn’t working.

I tried installing the printer in a standalone Debian VM, and it didn’t work.

I haven’t tried installing it in a Fedora VM.

Do you think I should create, for example, a Linux Mint VM to install the printer?

Thank you,
Germain.

No, you can use the default Fedora or Debian template qube, but I would recommend making a standalone one first. Simply clone your default template qube as a standalone qube and name it printer. Afterwards, follow the official Linux installation instructions.

I went to a French website that provided Linux command lines to install the printer, but it didn’t work.

For me, Linux isn’t easy for users accustomed to Microsoft Windows and macOS. The problem with Windows and macOS is that they’re full of spyware and backdoors.

I’ll enable website translation from English to French.

I know how to create a standalone VM.

Do you have any official English-language links for installing a WIFI printer on Debian using DEB files in a standalone VM?

Thanks.
