Gunzip linux-brprinter-installer-2.0.0-1.gzĬhmod +x linux-brprinter-installer-2.0.0-1 Unpack the downloaded file and give it executable permission cd ~/Downloads # or the path you had stored the download In case we have a locale different from English we may have to ignore a warning to then select Language > English>ĭownload the Driver Install Tool only (no need to download the other drivers as the installer tool will do that for you). Browse to Brother Support and search for your model number.Install the proprietary drivers from Brother Note down your printer's IP as we need it later. First set up your wireless connection on the printer display according to the quick setup manual.
