So I killed evince, restarted rvice via systemctl and tried again this time "duerqxesz5090" is no longer there, the only item is "Print to File", there aren't any printers listed. If I click on that evince seems to hang, saying it's getting printer information.
Install brother printer driver hl 2280dw pdf#
So then I tried printing a PDF document from "evince", and in the printer dialog I see "Print to File" and also "duerqxesz5090". Then I clicked "Modify Printer", and after that I'm able to successfully print a test page.īut when I try to print from LibreOffice all I see is "Generic Printer", and it doesn't print anything. In the next page I type in "socket://192.168.2.103" for the connection information (the IP of my printer) and added that, using the same printer driver. So I next tried "Modify Printer" and select "AppSocket/HP JetDirect" since that's what the cups website says has the strongest support. However, I'm unable to print a test page, an error message in the web page says that cups is unable to locate the printer, which has this listed for the connection: lpd://BRN30055C1AA1B2/BINARY_P1 I accept the defaults that appear on the next page, and the printer is added. In the next dialog, the "Make" indicates "Brother", and in the "Model" list I saw "Brother HL-2280DW(en)", so I clicked "Add Printer".
Then I checked the "Share This Printer" checkbox and clicked "Continue". Next, I brought up the cups administration page in chromium to add the new printer, and saw "Brother HL-2280DW (Brother HL-2280DW)" as a discovered printer, so I selected it. I downloaded this package, unpacked it, ran 'makepkg -s' and installed the resulting package with 'pacman -U', all seemed to go well. I also found a package for an HL-2280DW-specific driver in the AUR, which I downloaded and installed ( ). I also have several cups packages installed: I recently did a re-install of archlinux, and I have a Brother HL-2280DW printer that I just can't seem to get to work (it worked with my previous archlinux installations).
