F.A.Q.

Q: How to install drivers?
A: Download file kyocera_ppds_installer.sh, grant execution rights and start with root privileges.

Q: Why do you need root privileges?
A: These privileges are needed so the script could copy PPD files and necessary binaries to system directories

Q: Why don't you just create deb/rpm package?
A: There are too many package managers, I just want it to work on any Linux distribution (well, as many as possible).

Q: How to uninstall these things?
A: Use this: ./kyocera_ppds_installer.sh --uninstall

P.S.

Unfortunatelly, I don't have any Kyocera devices anymore, and I will not be able to test any fixes. It would be nice to hear from you how it works.
