brlaser: Brother laser printer driver
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
brlaser is a CUPS driver for Brother laser printers.
|
|
|
|
Although most Brother printers support a standard printer language
|
|
such as PCL or PostScript, not all do. If you have a monochrome
|
|
Brother laser printer (or multi-function device) and the other open
|
|
source drivers don't work, this one might help.
|
|
|
|
This driver has been reported to work with these printers:

Other printers
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
If your printer isn't included in the list above, just try selecting
|
|
any entry marked 'brlaser' and see if it works.
|
|
|
|
If it does, please create a new issue here in Github and include the
|
|
output of this command:
|
|
|
|
sudo lpinfo --include-schemes usb -l -v
|
|
|
|
Then I'll be able to add a proper entry for your printer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Some operating systems already ship this driver. This is the case for
|
|
at least Debian, Gentoo, Ubuntu, Raspbian, openSUSE, NixOS, Arch Linux
|
|
and Guix.
|
|
Look for a package named `printer-driver-brlaser`.
|
|
|
|
You'll also need Ghostscript, in case that's not installed
|
|
automatically.
|
|
|
|
Once brlaser is installed, you can add your printer using the usual
|
|
CUPS interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building from source
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
To compile brlaser you'll need CMake and the CUPS development packages
|
|
(libcups2-dev, libcupsimage2-dev or similar).
|
|
|
|
Get the code by cloning the git repo <!-- or downloading the [latest
|
|
release] -->. Compile and install with these commands:
|
|
|
|
cmake .
|
|
make
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
|
|
It might be needed to restart CUPS after this.
