Problems on Brother DCP-130C

Post by Fabio7891 »

Hi everybody !

I am using Linux Mint 18.1 Cinnamon and my printer is driving me crazy.

I have to install drivers for that.

I have tried to follow instructions here: http://tutorialforlinux.com/2016/02/07/ ... asy-guide/ but it doesn't work

I have checked drivers here: http://support.brother.com/g/b/download ... ng=English but only CUPSwrapper printer driver (deb package) works.

I have tried to print something but the results are very bad. I have set the print quality at maximum but when it prints, the quality is very very low.
On Windows 10 this doesn't happen and I have not empty printer cartridges.

What can I do ?

I have contacted also Brother company, but they told me: "Your Linux system is too recent and probably drivers are not exactly compatible".

P.s. I have tried to insert an attachment to make you see the results of printings, but here the forum doesn't accept picture of 257Kb

Thank you deepakdeshp, but nothing has changed and the quality is still bad.

I don't know what to do :roll:
