Installation into Debian stretch

The driver can be downloaded directly from Xerox. Even if the officially supported Debian distributions are just lenny, squeeze and wheezy, the drivers work fine on jessie and stretch as well.

At first, install CUPS if not installed yet.

  • apt-get update
  • apt-get install cups

Then extract the downloaded driver package as Xerox_WorkCentre_3025_Linux-Driver.tar.gz and install both the printer and scanner drivers.

  • mkdir Xerox_WorkCentre_3025_Linux-Driver
  • cd Xerox_WorkCentre_3025_Linux-Driver
  • tar -xzf ../Xerox_WorkCentre_3025_Linux-Driver.tar.gz
  • cd uld
  • ./install-printer.sh
  • ./install-scanner.sh

Don't forget to add your unprivileged users into the lpadmin group if they should be able to manage the printer via CUPS web interface. Also add all users that should be able to print and/or scan to the lp and scanner groups (logging out and in again is necessary so that your user environment contains new groups).

  • gpasswd -a admuser lpadmin
  • gpasswd -a user lp
  • gpasswd -a user scanner

The printer can be now added into the system via the CUPS web interface reachable on the local host at:

http://localhost:631

Navigate to Administration -> Add printer and choose:

  • AppSocket/HP JetDirect
  • socket://ip-or-fqdn:9100
  • printer Name (optionally Description and Location)
  • Provide PPD file from the driver package: uld/noarch/share/ppd/Xerox_WorkCentre_3025.ppd

If you entered correct printer options (e.g. paper size A4, default printer etc.), you should be able to print using standard applications or from the command-line using lpr. You should be able to scan via USB cable using any SANE-aware application as well, e.g. simple-scan or xsane.
