Hello,
I collected a Brother printer (CDP-J132W), but have not been to make it
works in USB
Tt is not recognize by lsusb
It shows up in the printer manager as
CUPS-BRF-Printer
Address localhost:631
Driver
Generic Text-Only Printer
The "test Page" does not not anything.
The search for driver runs for ever.
I tried linux-brprinter-installer
but it want to install
mfcj880dwlpr-1.0.0-0.i386.deb
mfcj880dwcupswrapper-1.0.0-0.i386.deb
brscan4-0.4.11-1.amd64.deb
brscan-skey-0.3.4-0.amd64.deb
I also tried
brscan4-0.4.11-2.x86_64.rpm
and
dcpj132wlpr-3.0.0-1.i386.rpm
brsaneconfig4 -d
