Daar wel mee aan de slag geweest, met het hele onderstaande verhaal:
Downloaden en installeren
Step 1. Download LPR and Cupswrapper driver
Step 2. Login as a superuser
Step 3. Check if pre-required procedures are completed
For openSUSE
For Fedora10, 11, 12 64 bit
Step 4. Install LPR driver and cupswrapper driver
4-1. Turn on the printer and connect the USB or network cable.
4-2. Open the terminal and go to the directory where the drivers are.
4-3. Install LPR driver. The install process may take some time. Please wait until it is complete.
Command (for rpm) : rpm -ihv --nodeps (lpr-drivername)
4-4. Install cupswrapper driver.The install process may take some time. Please wait until it is complete.
Command (for rpm) : rpm -ihv --nodeps (cupswrapper-drivername)
4-5. Check if the LPR driver and cupswrapper driver are installed
Command (for rpm) : rpm -qa | grep -e (lpr-drivername) -e (cupswrapper-drivername)
Step 5a. (for USB Connection) Check your printer on the cups web interface
5a-1. Open a web browser and go to "
http://localhost:631/printers".
Check if the Device URI of your printer is "usb://Brother/(your printer's model name)"
If the device URI is different from the example above, please go to "Modify Printer" of your printer to select proper device and driver.
If your printer is not listed on "
http://localhost:631/printers", please go to "
http://localhost:631/admin" and click "Add printer" and select proper device and driver.
Step 5b. (for Network Connection) Configure your printer on the cups web interface
5b-1. Open a web browser and go to "

5b-2. Click "Modify Printer" and set following parameters.
"LPD/LPR Host or Printer" or "AppSocket/HP JetDirect" for Device
"lpd://Your printer's IP adress)/binary_p1" for Device URI
"Brother" for Make/Manufacturer Selection
"Your printer's name" for Model/Driver selection.
Maar het heeft nog niet tot resultaat geleid, terwijl de Brother het laatst gelijk deed na de update waarna mijn schermen ineens zo klein werden en ik de boel opnieuw moest installeren. Vraag me wat ik nu over het hoofd zie...
