@Lifthanger:
sorry, haven't tried installing fax - for that I use it too seldomly
you can try installing it via rpm or dpkg
copying it over manually also works but there might be issues with permissions
@zoidie:
I don't have that file here - it seemed to exist for an older version of the driver
you have the latest ?
concerning pure 64bit: I doubt that it'll work

Got the latest from Brother's site - although this is dated March 2006. It just seems a bit odd that Brother offer 64 bit scanner drivers but only 32 printer drivers...
If I set the printer up on another machine and share it, will the 64 bit machine still need the driver installed?
Edit: I have now installed the printer on another machine and have shared both the printing and scanning functions across the network. |

does anyone have an idea of the reason why if I connect my Printer/Scanner to an USB 3.0 port, the scanner doesn't work?
I always get something like "failed to open device: 'brother2:bus1;dev2': Invalid Argument" and if I plug the scanner to the USB 2.0, this doesn't happen?
Is some other kernel module necessary to get the scanner working over a 3.0 port? |
To me it happens for usb2 too. Code: | failed to initialize device: Invalid Argument" |
Any ideas? |

Same error here too on usb2. Quote: | "failed to open device: 'brother2:bus1;dev2': Invalid Argument" |
