Description

The drivers are available from Brother - as either RPM or DEB.
While RPM Solus trickery can allow an install of sorts - no print no facs.
Result as complaints of no cupswrapper and permissions difficulties with Cups itself. Additionally, Scanner detection does not happen correctly.
All-in-all, a fail.
Specifically, the driver(s) being requested are for Brother MFC-L2703DW, and Brother describes these as MFC-L2700 series.
This printer is mass-market in Australia, sold through the largest office supply chain, so they're not at all rare.
The drivers appear to be generic monochrome MFC Laser printers in the brother range.
Brother website specifies differing procedures pre-install, depending on the relevant Linux install. Solus is 'different'.

@Girtablulu Thank you too!;) Am I allowed to continue using this package now, or will you make a new package with permissions?

In the end I removed the package. Installed the last one you sent me. Rebooted the computer, added the printer in settings. Sent the document to print-nothing happens. The printer buzzes in warm-up mode, but does not print.

Here is the latest my journal Now in the status "processing" of the printer hangs one document. If I try to remove the printer now, I won't be able to add it again until I turn off the printer and restart the computer.

yes, i deleted file. but nothing has changed. I recorded video The printer just stands and works in the heating mode. To cancel the printing impossible printer is not responding to the cancel printing. If I turn off the printer and turn it back on, after a while the computer will just hang and have to do a hard reset. And when I try to restart the computer with the hung printer - I have here such screen.

@SuperJC710e great at least it's printing, did you try as well as in increasing the dpi to 600 and did you check inside the printer settings if everything is set? Because you are the first who is reporting such an issue and as by far I can see and the package should work as all the others :/

@alexanderzhirov thanks for the checking, still looking into it, can you see your printer via lsusb ?

@Girtablulu Thanks for the response! I'm using the printer via network. I can try connecting to USB later.

(Just noticed you were not asking me for the USB output, anyway, here it is from a different system (JIC):

Bus 002 Device 012: ID 04f9:02af Brother Industries, Ltd MFC-9330CDW

)

However, that said, connecting by network via the same method reveals very different options on Fedora vs Solus. Here's the output

@Girtablulu Thanks for the quick turn-around. So the new driver "prints", but it just spews a bit of Post Script (I assume) and then a bunch of blank pages. I did remove and re-add the printer after I installed the new package. Still doesn't have the same options as with the Fedora driver.

@Girtablulu Thanks! I've installed. it It works, basically like the first one. No errors, still low quality for colour prints, and not showing all the options. I'll have to print anything but text documents from my other system for now, but thanks for the great work on this!

Stab in the dark, because you have probably already covered this, but I think the rpm (and deb) packages run some sort of setup script after install that sets things up...

@Girtablulu The printer is installed as "Generic Text-Only Printer". Scanner is working, printing is not working. Even in the print task does not get the document. Nothing happens.

@Girtablulu I finally had a little time to dig deeper, and I think I've discovered the issue. For some reason the cupswrapper portion is being installed for the mfcj220 model, instead of the mfc9330cdw. I had installed a completely clean system as a VM for a reference point, and I noticed the /opt/brother/Printers/mfcj220 directory after I installed the package you provided. As an experiment I grabbed the mfc9330cdwcupswrapper-1.1.4-0.i386.rpm package and extracted the contents to the /opt/brother/Printers directory and voila! it worked! The print came out just as nice as on my Fedora system, and the options are now the same!

PS: I'd love to have your source folder for the package so I could have try my hand at packaging (just for fun...done lot's of RPM packaging in the past, but would like to try some Solus packaging). I had started setting up the packaging area, and having a reference yaml file would be cool!

@Girtablulu Awesome, it works! I removed my manual additions and uninstalled the package, then installed this last one, and hooray, it works!! Thanks! I have to make sure to manually add the printer and select the correct driver (Brother MFC-9330CDW CUPS), then it works as desired!

hi

can you please do the drivers for brother DCP-j562dw. Also a brief as to how to install them as I am not very tech savvy but I am cut and pate savvy

beimhoff added a comment.Apr 8 2019, 10:22 PM

@Girtablulu is there any command output or any other additional information I could get you to help get these working?

Thanks!

@beimhoff Sadly not much time the last few days, maybe I can have a look on Thursday or at latest on the weekend (gonna throw it on my task list so I don't forget it :) )

beimhoff added a comment.EditedApr 13 2019, 7:54 PM

@Girtablulu still nothing - same as the previous two. Kernel seems to load it fine, but the scanner isn't seen by any sane application at all - sudo'd or otherwise. Anything I can do to help you debug?

Girtablulu added a comment.Apr 13 2019, 7:55 PM

the scanner is connected via usb?

let's try something, after installing go to /usr/lib64/udev/rules.d/50-Brother_DSScanner.rules

and change

KERNEL=="sg[0-9]*", ATTRS{type}=="0", ATTRS{vendor}=="Brother", ATTRS{model}=="DS-720D", MODE="0666", GROUP="scanner"

to

KERNEL=="sg[0-9]*", ATTRS{type}=="0", ATTR{idVendor}=="04f9",ATTR{idProduct}=="60e2", MODE="0666", GROUP="scanner"

@Girtablulu

Made that change in /usr/lib64/udev/rules.d/50-Brother_DSScanner.rules, and still nothing. Same as before.

Hello!
May I please request the addition of drivers for: Brother MFC-J5330DW (Drivers page).

I've tried installing those myself, unfortunately with no luck what so ever.
Thank you in advance!

@Girtablulu, really that's great! Is there a way I can check?
