Hi Egon, I'm quite happy to step you through the process, I have a Brother printer as well (DCP-130C). I will convert this bug to a question as soon as launchpad stops timing out when I try to.
You will not be able to install the printer via synaptic command (sudo apt-get install), we need to install the packages from the Brother site and install them manually. Make sure you have both the CUPS wrapper driver (cupswrapperMFC210C-1.0.2-3.i386.deb) and the LPR Driver (mfc210clpr-1.0.2-1.i386.deb), and make sure you have downloaded the .deb version (not rpm). It makes it easier if you copy these to your /tmp folder. Once you have copied both of these files to the /tmp folder, then open a terminal window and navigate to the tmp directory with the command 'cd /tmp'. Then we will use dpkg (the manual version of apt-get) to unpack the deb file. [CODE] sudo dpkg -i --force-all cupswrapperMFC210C-1.0.2-3.i386.deb sudo dpkg -i --force-all mfc210clpr-1.0.2-1.i386.deb [/CODE] If that works, you should be able to see your printer here by pointing any web browser here 'jttp://localhost:631/printers'. You should be able to select 'Print a Test Page' from somewhere near there (maybe click on your printer first). Does the DCP-115C have scanning as well? If this works for you, then we can look at scanning. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/723173 Title: can not get Brother DCP-115C ok even with MFC210Clp installet -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
