Change in file name that needs editing to enable scanner portion of Brother printer

Post by wpshooter »

If there might happen to be any users of Brother printers out there, please note that this Linux Mint configuration file:

lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules

Which has to be MANUALLY edited to get the scanner portion of the Brother DCP-L2540DW printer to work under Linux Mint 17.3 is changed to file name

lib/udev/rules.d/60-libsane.rules

under Linux Mint 18.1.

I don't know if this might apply to other Brother printer models.

Thanks.
