You need to install the LPD driver first and then install the cupswrapper driver.

ps : If you find it difficult to install your printer, i've written a script to make it easy. There is a thread...

Have you tried with drivers provided on Brother website?

This ppa is a great help. The only problem is that duplex printing won't work. I had to use the ppd file provided by Canon drivers.

Hello

You need to copy a few files in /usr/lib/sane :


sudo cp /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-brother4.so.1.0.7 /usr/lib/sane
sudo cp /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-brother4.so /usr/lib/sane
sudo cp...

Hi hlmai

You either mean oneiric 11.10 or natty 11.04 ;)
Anyway thanks for the feedback :)

Hi all,

I wrote a script in bash intending to facilitate the installation of drivers for Brother printers. I posted it on the French community forum a while ago...

Hi atwright

Not sure if it's what you're looking for but this cronjob will run "your_command" every hour between 7pm and 8am.

Hello Refon_oSu

Try this :


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:michael-gruz/canon
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cnijfilter-common cnijfilter-mp210series

Sorry, I can't help much on that

Sorry there was a typo in the last command. The command is

sudo apt-get install cnijfilter-common cnijfilter-ip4500Series

It says that only cnijfilter-common is installed. You also need to install cnijfilter-mp280series.deb

Taken from the official Zimbra documentation (http://www.zimbra.com/docs/ne/latest/single_server_install/) I urge you to read :

Check if the packages provided by Canon are installed

dpkg -l cnijfilter*
The output of this command should look like :

ii cnijfilter-common 3.20-1 ...

Hello

How to install your printer in 3 command lines :

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:michael-gruz/canon
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cnijfilter-ip4600series

Glad it helped :)

Try to reboot your computer and check if you can use your scanner.

If it's still not working, can you paste the output of

ls -l /etc/udev/rules.d

Depending if your scanner is connected via USB or network you should do :

USB

make sure the package sane-utils is installed :

dpkg -l sane-utils
should return something like

ii ...

Yep that looks good. You can check that the packages are installed with this command :

dpkg -l | grep Brother
The outpout should look like this :

ii dcp385ccupswrapper ...
