Tested and verified for MS Windows 7/8/10, Linux and Mac OS X.
DBeaver requires Java 1.8 or higher. Windows and MacOS installers include OpenJDK 11 bundle.
If you are on Mac OS X and you do NOT use PKG installer then you will need to setup Java.
Note: 3rd-party JDBC drivers may have their own system requirements. Install:
Windows installer – run installer executable. It will automatically upgrade version (if needed). Installer doesn’t change any system settings or Java installation. Included JDK will be accessible only for DBeaver.
MacOS PKG – just run it and follow installer pages. JDK 11 is included (and will be accessible only for DBeaver). MacOS DMG – just run it and drag-n-drop DBeaver into Applications. Make sure you have Java installed. On reinstall do the same (your settings won’t be lost). Debian package – run sudo dpkg -i dbeaver-<version>.deb . Then execute “dbeaver &”.RPM package – run sudo rpm -ivh dbeaver-<version>.rpm . Then execute “dbeaver &”. Note: to upgrade use “-Uvh” parameter.ZIP archive – extract archive and run “dbeaver” executable. Do not extract archive over previous version (remove previous version before install). Java must be installed separately.
Upgrade – don’t be afraid to remove previous DBeaver version – your settings won’t be lost. All settings are kept in the separate folder (DBeaverData in user home)
Java notes: if you use Windows or MacOS installer then you don’t need to install Java. Otherwise you will need to setup Java separately. Java 1.8+ must be the default Java version. To validate this run “java -version” in terminal window.
Debian repository: Ubuntu PPA: You can use PPA repository to easily install/upgrade DBeaver on Debian Linuxes. Mostly it is the same as regular Debian repo but it is hosted on Launchpad. 32-bit support:
32-bit versions have been obsoleted in version 6.0.1 and later (because both Java and Eclipse platform no longer support 32 bit).
If you need 32-bit version of DBeaver then you can download version 6.0.0 or earlier. Mac Golf DriversEarly Access:
You may get latest build (EA version) of DBeaver. Usually it contains all major bug fixes found in current stable version. Just choose the archive corresponding to your OS and hardware from the following folder: EA version downloads.
Source code:
We are on GitHub.
Community Edition sources, issue tracker, older releases, etc: https://github.com/dbeaver/dbeaver Archive:

Are you trying to install a printer on your Ubuntu system? Luckily, Ubuntu now recognizes most printer brands and will automatically install the related drivers when connected.
Many printer manufacturers such as Brother and HP support Linux distributions and release their own printer drivers. But before installing a printer from another brand, you should look at their website to see if they support Linux.
Keep in mind that your desktop environment is what dictates the configuration tool you need to use to set up your printer, not the Linux distribution.
Is It Already There?
Many modern printers have powerful network capabilities. What this means is that when you go the add printer area, your printer will already be listed.
How can you find out if it is? Note that you will need administrative privileges on the system to set the default printer.
Your Printer Is Listed
If you see your printer listed under devices, the following steps will help you finish the printer installation.
Download Mac Drivers On Ubuntu Mac
As you can see in the image above, you can:
You should also check the Printer Options to make sure the default settings are consistent with the capabilities and features of your printer.
Keep in mind that every printer is going to be slightly different. However, the main principles are the same across all printers.
Pay attention to the Output Mode in the image above. If you are looking to save money because print cartridges can be expensive, you might want to only use Color when necessary.
When you don’t need a color copy, you can change that option to Black and White or Grayscale.
What If Your Printer Is Not Listed?
There will be times when your Ubuntu OS won’t find a connected printer. There are various reasons for this that range from simple to complex.
You can either look at the printer manufacturer documentation or follow the steps below.
Check Your Printer Hardware
One of the simplest things to check is the connection. Did you properly connect the power cables and USB (if the printer is not using wireless)?
If you have an older printer or have moved it from one location to another, you could have a loose connection. Check both ends of the USB cable to make sure the connection is secure.
Ubuntu Drivers
Some older printers were not designed to work with the open-source operating system or the latest version of Ubuntu.
Alternatively, if your printer is very new, it might not have been added yet to Ubuntu’s database. So, what can you do?
Download Your Driver
You can go to the printer manufacturer’s official website to find and download the appropriate driver based on the model number.
Each printer’s brand installation will vary so be sure to follow the directions carefully.
Use The “Additional Drivers” Tool
Some printer manufacturers have their own proprietary and closed-source drivers. This means that that Linux distributions won’t be able to automatically enable them for you.
Configure Manually Using CUPS (Common Unix Printing System)
Developed by Apple, CUPS enables your system to detect your printer if it isn’t automatically found. You can use it with a single computer or a group of networked computers.
Keep in mind that CUPS is specifically for printing and not scanning or other functions some printers might perform.
To learn more about CUPS, visit the official page.
Unless your printer is very new or old, most of the time, setting up a printer on Ubuntu is not that difficult.
