Having seen a few posts here and elsewhere of late from satisfied Linux users of Brother printers, after using HP for the last 15 years and my current one dying a death only partly brought on by my fist, I decided this week to buy a Brother DCP-J572DW. I've unboxed it, done the initial standalone setup and selected my wifi network. Now I need to install the drivers that I've downloaded from Brother's website but Jesus pancakes, it wants to pull in a lot of 32-bit crap. In addition to the four rpms, Brother also provide a setup script. Before going through this I thought I'd just do a search to see if others have done it this way or some other way. Mistake. Now I'm just overloaded with possibles. On the openSUSE subreddit, some posts suggest this script stalls looking for the libusb-0.1-4 package. One user suggests it's seeking the 32-bit version of that too, and another user reports success after installing that. There's also the suggestion any user might need to be added to the lp group. Other posts suggest ignoring the script and using zypper/yast to install the rpms. Here's the list of packages set to be installed: https://susepaste.org/55221c2c I know it's only a bunch of files that use a relatively small amount of disk space, but having a spanking new PC running a fresh Leap install and a spanking new printer, I didn't want my software selection to be dragged back a decade. Have any other users here had success setting up full print/scan functions without installing all these dependencies, on a similar Brother inkjet? Brother's website also mentions needing to open the following ports: incoming UDP Port 54925 outgoing TCP Port 54921 but a lot of the references are to versions of openSUSE 10.x or 11.x. It all seems very out-of-date and might it be different now with firewalld? gumb -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
