Jerry has pointed you to the right way: the Brother installer tool; clicking on that link; and selecting to SAVE as the file is downloaded, should mean it ends up in your Downloads folder open a terminal; (the black TV on the bottom line ) ........ and paste each command below into the terminal; PAS...

just like this https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=277256 (the post below yours) Perhaps not the quickest solution but I bought a CD of Mint 19 MATE from Linux mint shop and did a fresh install. Printer works without even having to do all the HP stuff. just opened my file clicked print...

welcome to the Mint forums; you joined today and this is your first post; could you spell out a little more detail about things eg I would use LibreOffice if printing an Avery item; they have Avery templates in there ..... New ........ Labels ............. I wasn't sure why pdf was mentioned .. <<<<...

I was able to scan using the scangearmp2 program from Cannon

I am going to try the open source drivers ...... I fear I have not made myself clear; as I understand it; the open-source drivers are not warranted to work for the TS that I list in the picture in the previous post: they need testers to help them; you could play a big role in doing that; if you hel...

sorry; if you open a terminal;

and do
that should get you back inside that directory; then do


.... that is adding the sudo and that should allow things to happen!

so the LBP6030 is a LASER printer; the pixma printers are inkjet; and they use different drivers; the UFR driver you downloaded has an install script; to set up a printer; one needs to 1) install the drivers and 2) register the printer with lpadmin using the install script; should do both: DO tell u...

glad it is all working now;

magnificent! You did very well; glad it is all sorted; extraordinary it seems how much is missing; if one uses hplip; perhaps hp-setup might have dragged it in automatically; but enjoy the printer now! PS as it now works in the fully functioning mode: can you go back to the title of your first post;...

so Lenny; one needs to get what is called a .ppd file; (it is a list of instructions); and instead of needing what we call "drivers", many printers (laser postscript) will work fine with just being told to look at what the ppd instructions say; so The database is in /usr/share/ppd ... meaning inside...

have a read at the thread above yours: viewtopic.php?f=51&t=277256

hplip is also spitting out a huge list of missing files; HP is not always smooth sailing

I think I mentioned that in post #7 above

so the HL-L2360DW is airprint-compatible; and I wonder if Mint 19 did an auto-config for you; ?? ?? ?? Right-click on the icon for it in the PRINTERS folder; look in MAKE & MODEL and tell us what it says there: to install the Brother driver, I would go here http://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadend...

with

HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Foomatic/foo2zjs-z2 (recommended)

you are using the open-source (Foomatic) driver;

to try to access hplip, if you do and see what that gives please

(I see you need hplip > 3.1-.4 so you are fine with the existing version installed)

gosh; still missing stuff sudo apt install libcups2 libdbus-1-dev build-essential I did cups was reported as a problem in the last but one post you did; but it seems like cups is ok now? If you do the above; then do hp-check again; if it is happy, do hp-setup and it should set up a working icon; sur...

gosh; it's very unhappy from this thread https://forum.peppermintos.com/index.php?topic=6674.0 they suggested sudo apt-get install python-dev libcups2-dev cups-bsd cups-client libtool libtool-bin libcupsimage2-dev libjpeg-dev openssl libsnmp-dev snmp-mibs-downloader python-qt4-dbus gtk2-engines-pixb...

Hi; welcome to the Mint forums if you open a terminal; (hold down 3 keys: control and alt and t .. like a piano chord .......) then type or paste hp-setup and that should get hplip to set things up: if you already have one icon; it may add another; maybe delete what you already have; if it is not wo...
