Bruce Crowther : You actually use the Brother printer drivers from the Brother website. Your printer driver is also actually in the brother- cups-wrapper-bh7 and brother-lpr-drivers-bh7 packages which you can download with synaptic. ( see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BrotherDriverPackaging ).
The problem you get with your sane scanner drivers is that Brother sane drivers only works when running as root. You should follow their FAQ. http://solutions.brother.com/linux/sol/printer/linux/linux_faq.html#6 . Actually I did not provide sane drivers for ubuntu but I want to do this for Hardy + 1. webwolf_27 : This project wouldn't have take place without you, thank you very much for the hard job you did on this :) -- NEW PACKAGE: Printer drivers for Brother needed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/25966 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
