Just realized I probably should have included my printer/scanner type: Brother DCP-7030. Would be interested to learn where those 6 files came from. The 6 files being present and transfered seems to have done the trick. After copying the files over to the /usr/lib/ folder the scanner works fine. They must have been installed with the all-in-one installer, which hadn't been done on numerous installations of the 3 individual drivers. Upon checking the /usr/lib64 folder again though, there were the files - 3 standalones and 3 in a sane subfolder. After using Brother's all-in-one installer this time as you suggested, everything seemed to go well, although even after rebooting the scanner wasn't recognized and wouldn't start. I checked the /usr/lib64/ folder before using the installer program you suggested from the Brother site and the 6 listed files weren't in there. I had already added the 2 lines to the /lib/udev/rules.d/les" file and had checked for sane-utils being present. Printing no problem but wouldn't recognize scanner. Hadn't worked though with the new Mint18 64bit cinnamon.

Thanks observativetiger! In the past I've always installed the lpr, cupswrapper and brscan3 drivers separately using Brother's suggested methods and have had no problems. Thank you to everyone on this thread, all very important input! See the link above for details on your brscan version list of files to be copied.Copy the following files under /usr/lib64/ to /usr/lib/.This is usually why the scanner wont connect and is stated by PeterBell (Arch config identified) and.The following ports are required to be open:.(As stated by Duveltje) If you use a firewall: 2,857 6 37 57 I had the same behavior (simple-scan error and lockout from the scanner), I had to restart my printer/scanner to be able to reconnect.This ensures that an ip is configured on your system and any dependencies are installed.It is run from the terminal as su or sudo.

Search for your model and download the INSTALL script.Install the Brother drivers using the official Brother install script for your model.In the end is was three simple steps that solved my connectivity issues for printing and scanning in LM17.x and LM18 while using Brother products. I've dealt with this bug for several releases now, same as the op and others have indicated, the only difference being I'm using a MFC-7440N. Restart your computer, every thing should be fine now. That downloads the installation file and you find the remaining part of the installation instructions. Make sure your device is connected to your computer If you use a firewall: The following ports are required to be open. Sudo aa-complain cupsd (I'm not really sure if this has to be repeated, but it won't hurt) Sudo mkdir /usr/share/cups/model (Just the word model, not the model you have)

You're prompted again and enter the same password.

That must be the password you usually use for root actions.

When you've done this you're prompted to give a password. Then enter the following 2 lines just before the line LABEL="libsane_rules_end":ĪTTRS="yes" Execute: sudo gedit /lib/udev/rules.d/les
