I have some tenacious problem with installing my printer driver since I set up Ubuntu 14.4 new. Until this time everything worked fine and I could use/install the printer driver successfully . Also I am quite sure, that I didn't change any settings. Now it isn't possible anymore to install the driver again. Every time I get the message "permission denied".

I read about the problem of access rights and how to show/change setting. At this point I am not sure. I am logged in as admin and if i show right settings for "install.sh" this is shown:

jam@jam-GA-880GM-USB3:/media/jam/Western Digital WD20/Software/Samsung Druckertreiber/Ubuntu-Linux/uld$ ls -l
insgesamt 19
drwx------ 1 jam jam 4096 Dez 12  2014 i386
-rw------- 1 jam jam  446 Dez 12  2014 install-printer.sh
-rw------- 1 jam jam  446 Dez 12  2014 install-scanner.sh
-rw------- 1 jam jam  848 Dez 12  2014 install.sh

If a go to properties of the file "install.sh" there is written "read and write" for me/admin. But for "jam"-account there is only "none". But "jam" is my admin-account. If i want to change settings for "jam"-account, it imediately jumps back to "none". Only of I copy the file "install.sh" to the hard disk, I can change the access rights to "read and write". But also I get the message "permission denied" when I try to install.

So a lot of text. I wrote every backround information to help professional ubuntu users here to help me. I hope

The problem here is that you don't have permission to execute it.

If you run chmod +x * in the folder with the install.sh file, that will give you permission to execute any of the scripts in that folder.
