After installing some update this issue reappeared for me. I purged the all brother drivers (printer scanner fax), reinstalled brother-cups-wrapper-extra and ran:
sudo brprintconf_mfc260c -pt A4 after which I could successfully print again. I suppose I could have run that without purging/reinstalling but I wanted to insure I started with a clean slate. It is very annoying that these printers/scanners/fax-devices cannot simply work with drivers the manufacturers should be maintaining upstream under Free Software licenses. Thanks for those of you publicizing their solutions. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550764 Title: Brother CUPS wrapper fails to change LPR driver settings To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/brother-cups-wrapper-extra/+bug/550764/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
