Hello, I am desperately trying to print from Puppy to a Brother DPC120C printer/scanner both directly by USB and via network by smb. Context: Works in Windows env. works from Mandriva cups using MFC210C driver from brother solution Based on brother recommendation http://solutions.brother.com/linux/sol/printer/linux/cups_wrapper_install.html I download lpr and cups packages for MFC210C : Using rpm packages, nedeed to get unrpm and csh but, I not sure that is correctly install. Finally nothing out of the printer, for example trying on URI : usb://Brother/DCP-120C job seems to be send nothing happens I got a "Pause" message So I need help! mpierrat25 Last edited by mpierrat25 on Sat 09 Aug 2008, 16:15; edited 2 times in total |

mpierrat25, one thing you could investigate is whether creating symlinks, for the extracted /usr/lib/libbrcompij2.so.1.0.2 has any effect:
Also, if you run the command brprintconfij2, does it run without any errors? |

@muggins, You are right : no link no brprintconfig2 file so I try to re-install lpr
but, since I put (as recommended by brother) the rpm files in a temp directory , it create a usr tree at this place. What is the right way to unrpm ? By the way, how to cute and paste in rxvt ? |

mpierrat25, try extracting mfc210.tar.bz2 to /. I've no idea why cut'n'paste is different with p4. With previous pups, dragging cursor over rxvt text copies, then either control+v, shift+insert, or middle mouse button click, pastes. But with p4, only middle mouse button seems to work. |

at least it's OK via USB I'll fix smb to night and issue a summary if OK |
