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 [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
