Use the socket protocol as described in #Network printers Using the brother driver, only defaults are honored and print-specific settings are ignored. Or Brother's driver, which may result in failed prints with postscript errors.īrlaser-git AUR works better. Using the Generic PCL 6/PCL XL Printer - CUPS+Gutenprint ( gutenprint and foomatic-db-gutenprint-ppds). Use IPP and Brother's driver to avoid page-shrinking and endless blank printouts ![]() Install Brother's driver or brother-hl3040cn AUR. Select HL-2170W as the driver in CUPS admin when adding a printer. Should be compatible with any drivers for the HL-2030. Or foomatic - works mostly with hpijs-pcl5e.ppd. "DCPJ1200W" is added automatically to cups when installing this aur package. Use IPP driver as described here and here. Unofficial driver, may be compatible with more models With modern printers usually being driverless IPP printers, classic printer drivers, installed under CUPS by its web interface or a printer setup tool, are deprecated and replaced by Printer Applications (for the non-driverless legacy and specialty printers) which emulate driverless IPP printers as this one.Note: Some printer models can be found in several entries because there are several packages or drivers for them.ĭCP-1510 series (DCP-1510, DCP-1510r, DCP-1511, DCP-1512, DCP-1512r, DCP-1518)ĭCP-7010, DCP-7020, DCP-7025, DCP-8060, DCP-8065DN, FAX-2820, FAX-2920, HL-2030, HL-2040, HL-2070N, HL-5240, HL-5250DN, HL-5270DN, HL-5280DW, MFC-7220, MFC-7225N, MFC-7420, MFC-7820N, MFC-8460N, MFC-8660DN, MFC-8860DN, MFC-8870DW In the future, there will be utilities to easily find non-driverless printers and find the correct Printer Application for them. You find it with your browser under Note that currently printers have to get added via the web interface to use them. Like on a physical network printer there is a web interface for administration, here especially also for adding and configuring printers. This Printer Application emulates a driverless IPP network printer (IPP Everywhere) for each physical printer set up with it, so your computer's printing environment discovers it automatically and makes your printer(s) available for printing. As soon as the Gutenprint project provides a native Printer Application, this Printer Application retro-fitting the CUPS driver will get discontinued. Especially they should create a native Printer Application, meaning that it does not use PPDs, CUPS filters, and CUPS backends internally. Note: Gutenprint is an actively maintained project, therefore it would also be the correct way if Gutenprint gets turned into a Printer Application by its maintainers, or at least this be offered as an alternative to the classic CUPS driver. ) and has made many user's printers work and with this Printer Application these printers will continue to work in environments where only Printer Applications (and no classic printer driver packages) are supported. Gutenprint already ships for many years with most common Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, SUSE. ![]() Note though that as a Printer Application is an emulation of a driverless IPP printer, using the printer's own driverless IPP functionality is recommended. Some of these printers are probably also driverless IPP printers, but you can still use this Printer Application then as perhaps you could get better output quality. In addition it provides generic support for the different PCL flavors, everything which is supported by the Gutenprint CUPS Raster driver ( ). It supports more than 3000 different printer models, especially inkjet printers from Epson and Canon, dye-sublimation photo printers, PCL 4/5c/e laser printers, but also some other printers. ![]() If you want to use a printer which is not a modern driverless IPP (AirPrint, Mopria, IPP Everywhere, Wi-Fi Direct Print, prints from smartphones) printer (then you do not need any Printer Application) and/or want to print in very high quality with many adjustable options, for example photos or fine art, then this is the right Printer Application for you. if you have more than one Printer Application installed), click "Add Printer". Usage/Setup: Install this Snap, go to (or to.
