Hello SuSE people,
I installed 10.3 on my son's computeerr today. He finally got sick of windoze. All is well except for his printer. It is an MFC3420C. One of those all in MFC3420C
Which manufacturer is that? Its a Brother, which can be troublesome.
Sometimes Brother printers are very windows specific. In which case you can sometimes get them to work by sending print thru a windows machine with the smb backend for CUPS. Go to the brother site.

Look on the left, under Notes/Information, where it says "For Linux Users"
I've been to that site and to every link that is associated with it. Spent hours going over it. That is where I got the install instructions. Thanks for trying to help anyway.
My Brother MFC 5440 CN installed very easily. The only problem was I had to make a symbolic link in the 64-bit library directory (/var/lib64?) to ../lib/some_file_here I'm not sure exactly why...but as soon as I did, everything worked.
