[Bug 873548] Re: Brother MFC 7440N printer is detected but will not print
Correction. I installed all over on another PC running Ubuntu 12.04. Here is what was needed to install the printer in my system: Follow #11 above (except that I do not need to --force-architecture since I user i86, not 64 bit) Add the printer to /etc/hosts, in my case the printer has static address 192.168.11.10: sudo gedit /etc/hosts add a line under 127.0.0.1LOCALHOST 192.168.11.10MFC.7440N Open the printer app, add a printer.

Browser to /usr/share/cups/model, and select the file MFC7440.PPD Print a test page, Open printer properties, set the paper size (Letter is default, I use A4), go through other settings, such as toner save, resolution (1200 DPI) ...

I had exactly the same problem as described in the "bug description" with the 32 bit version of official Ubuntu release 12.04. The instructions of comment 11 did work for me, and I can now print a test page with the newly installed printer. However, I do not know how to set a "PPD" file per step 5 "Select the PPD file for the printer", because there is apparently no Properties tab under System - Printing - MFC7440N (not Printers as mentioned).

Thanks for the response Till. My understanding of the issue is that Ubuntu identifies the printer correctly but installs the wrong driver, or, the CUPS driver that Ubuntu installs has a bug. (Making it an Ubuntu/CUPS issue) As a workaround, the steps from Post 11 have been taken to get it working till a permanent fix is released. Can you please check the Ubuntu side of things?

[Bug 873548] Re: Brother MFC 7440N printer is detected but will not print
Do the following: Turn off and turn on the printer again and from now on do not try to poll the toner levels with CUPS. Your error_log contains jobs where you have sent a command file for polling the toner levels. CUPS recognized this file correctly but instead of using the commandtops filter it passed the command file through to the printer without any filtering. This can have crashed the printer so that all subsequent jobs got ignored. So try to only print the real jobs after power-cycling the printer, no toner level checks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873548 Title: Brother MFC 7440N printer is detected but will not print To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/873548/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Till, I appreciate you looking at this and will do everything I can to help you. I appologise if its too verbose, but I want to make sure I am giving you all the information you need clearly so that you know exactly what I have done and what the outcome is.

There is no Brother MFC-7440N model to choose.

When I print a test page using this driver, the print device prints a stream of blank pages.
