[Bug 883169] Re: Brother MFC-8840D usb printer not detected
Till, tried 12.04 live CD, but usb printer still not detected. As mentioned previously, Xubuntu 11.10 automatically detected and setup my usb printer. I did not need to add it - it was simply there when I opened the "Printing" (system-config-printer 1.3.6) GUI. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/883169 Title: Brother MFC-8840D usb printer not detected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/883169/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Till, thank you! I downloaded 12.04 iso yesterday, but it was not completely updated. Usb printer now detected and I was able to set it up. Also downloaded/installed Brother scanner driver and that was detected.

[Bug 883169] Re: Brother MFC-8840D usb printer not detected
Chris, thanks for your suggestion - the usb printer is detected and works properly! However, it is an MFC with a scanner. The scanner seems to be detected now, but I get an error message "Failed to open device 'brother:bus4;dev1':Invalid argument." Any suggestions? Also does not explain why usb printer was automatically detected, setup, and operates in Xubuntu 11.10 without kernel update. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/883169 Title: Brother MFC-8840D usb printer not detected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/system-config-printer/+bug/883169/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 872711] Re: Kernel does not report some USB printers correctly, making them not being detected by CUPS
I have Brother MFC-8840D printer/scanner. Printer is detected if parallel, but neither printer or scanner detected if usb. Upgraded to 3.0.0-13, but does not help.

[Bug 883169] [NEW] Brother MFC-8840D usb printer not detected
Public bug reported: This seems similar to 872711, but installing 3.0.0-13 has not solved problem. Both usb printer and scanner were detected and ran properly in Ubuntu 11.04.

I decided to create a new bug 883169, since solution to this bug did not work for my Brother MFC-8840D usb printer. And I also made an interesting discovery. I created an Xubuntu 11.10 liveCD, loaded without installing, opened Settings:Printing, and there was my usb Brother printer automatically detected and setup! And it works. So what is the difference between Xubuntu and Ubuntu that would allow Xubuntu to detect a Brother usb printer? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872711 Title: Kernel does not report some USB printers correctly, making them not being detected by CUPS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/872711/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 883169] Re: Brother MFC-8840D usb printer not detected
Till, I have moved on to Xubuntu 11.10 which immediately detected and setup my usb Brother MFC-8840D printer and allowed me to install the Brother scanner driver, neither of which would work with Ubuntu 11.10. Unfortunately, I could not wait for this bug to play out as I needed use of the printer/scanner. Since I started this bug, I feel some responsibility to help. Do not know if this is a valid test, but installed your CUPS package using Ubuntu 11.10 liveCD. My usb printer was not detected. I would think someone would want to look at differences between Xubuntu 11.10 and Ubuntu 11.10 to determine why Xubuntu works and Ubuntu does not - of course that is it works for me. Perhaps some others could test Xubuntu 11.10 to help determine solution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/883169 Title: Brother MFC-8840D usb printer not detected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/883169/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
