G'Day Forum Readers, Thanks in advance
I need some help in getting a Brother DCP150C Printer/Scanner to work with Xsane Image Scanner under 64bit (Intel) Hardy Herron 8.04.
I have successfully installed the above printer/scanner on two 32bit Gusty Gibbon 7.04 computers using BroadDWorld's post HOWTO: Ubuntu Gutsy 7.10 All Brother Printer Scanner Driver Installation for Newbies!, and using the Brothers Web site for reference, I have read all 142 entries plus other post on Installing scanners.
I have now updated one computer to Hardy Heron 8.04 64bit. The printer installation went well no problems and all functions work well, I ran into problems when installing the scanner side of the unit. After closing down the unit and removing the USB cable I followed the steps 1, 2 3 ,3a & 3b, – 4. I omitted step 5 as I already knew the Vendor ID & Product ID. When I tried to edit: sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rules (Step 6) error no file found. I can use the scanner by pressing the Scan Button on the Scanners Control Panel but this saves the scanned file to /root/brscan which is hard to remove when the task is completed. When I start-up Xsane Image Scanner it show the scanner (available devices) clicking on the scanner button a pop-up appears, Error - Failed to open device 'brother2:bus2:dev1': Error during device I/O.
Is there anyway I can correct the above problem so I can use Xsane Image Scanner. I tried various options (create /45-libsane.rules and installing and/or re-installed: sane, sane-utils, xsane, xsane-common), or should I do a re-install (everything and clear out posible errore I have created.
Thanks again, Old Kevin

Hello, I am fairly new to Ubuntu, and I am having trouble installing my Brother DCP-135c.
I have followed this tutorial, but I have run into some trouble. I use Ubuntu 7.10.
I have downloaded the CCUPS and the LPR files to my desktop.
This is what happened:

Hardy Update
Just installed Hardy. I have a DCP-7020 that worked well under Gutsy using this guide.
Working from a fresh install, I had the same experience as avtolle.
Creating the directory "/usr/share/cups/model" solved my printer driver installation problems. I did not have to manually add the device ID. My scanner was recognized immediately.
Thanks worked Great!
What an awesome How To!
It worked nicely. Thank you ever so much. I was having so much trouble getting my printer (connected to a separate Windows computer) to work through a networked Ubuntu laptop.
Nevermind solved.
Perfect guide

Just want to say "Thanks". Your post got my printer working on the network on the first try.
Thanks BoardDworld, this how-to solved all my problems with a Brother DCP540CN.Up untill now i had to boot into windows to do any printing or scanning. Now i'm off to boot windows out!
Thanks again.
