I am attempting to connect a Brother MFC-7360N three-in-one.
When I connect it, it is not recognized and no attempt is
made to install the drivers. I consulted the help pages but
they are unhelpful. I excerpt the page below:
>Set up a local printer
>...
>If your printer was not set up automatically, you can add
it in the printer settings.
>Click your name on the top bar and select Settings.
>Click Printers.
...
The top bar of what? There is no top bar on my desktop.
I cannot follow these instructions if I don't know where
the items mentioned are.
I had hell to pay to get the device operating with the
Gnusense distribution, and even then I never got the scanner
to work. I hope connecting it with your distro will be
easier, but so far...
Connecting peripherals to machines running GNU/Linux is
a major on-going problem. It is one reason GNU/Linux will
never be a serious threat to Windows, at least for
unsophisticated users.
