I am attempting to obtain a PPD file for a Brother MFC-9560CDW printer. According to this URL: <http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/index.html>, I can download a file from: <http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/download_prn.html#MFC-9560CDW> for this printer. Unfortunately, the file is only available in either "RPM" or "DEB" format. I cannot figure out how to extract the "PPD" from "RPM" file. I have read "man rpm"; however, I am still confused. I tried following the instruction given on the site for extracting the files; however, that only issued a warning about an incorrect operating system.
Perhaps someone has some advice on how to go about this. I contacted Brother in regards to this but they said they only support Windows (obviously), Linux and Debian. According to them, support for other operating systems in not being considered presently due to a lack of consumer demand and the overhead involved. -- Carmel ✌ carmel...@hotmail.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
