Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: brother-cups-wrapper-laser
OS: Ubuntu
Version: 8.04
Architecture: 64 bit
Affected package: brother-cups-wrapper-laser
Package version: 2.0.1-2-0ubuntu3
Hardware type: All-In-One b/w laser printer, scanner
Model: Brother DCP-7025
I belatedly installed the debian package brother-cups-wrapper-laser
(2.0.1-2-0ubuntu3) in order to eliminate the performance problems that
incur when the standard printer driver DCP-7025 BR-Script3 is in use.
After choosing the alternative driver from Brother I tried to print a
test page but nothing happens. I then had a look at the error_log with
the command:
$> sudo tail -f /var/log/cups/error_log
The error_log says that it cannot find the file
"/usr/Brother/inf/brPrintList". I solved this by creating an empty file
by this name and added the printer model string "DCP7025" on the first
line.
The second problem incurred due to the missing shared object file
"/usr/lib/libbrcomplpr2.so" under the directory "/usr/lib32". Thus I
created a symbolic link to it like this:
$> sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libbrcomplpr2.so /usr/lib32/
This solved the last problem and I am able to print any documents now.
The Brother Printer FAQ states in the following entry:
<quote>
I am using the 64 bit version of Ubuntu 7.10. I have installed the drivers, but
I am still unable to print.
The reference directories for 32 bit applications have changed on the 64 bit
version of Ubuntu7.10.
If your version shows the following files after the installation, you will have
to make symbolic links for them under /usr/lib32.
Example of the command (Issue the command as a superuser);
ln -s /usr/lib/libbrcomplpr2.so /usr/lib32/libbrcomplpr2.so
List of files required to make symbolic links
/usr/lib/libbrcompij2.so
/usr/lib/libbrcompij2.so.1
/usr/lib/libbrcompij2.so.1.0
/usr/lib/libbrcompij2.so.1.0.2
/usr/lib/libbrcompij.so.1
/usr/lib/libbrcompij.so.1.0
/usr/lib/libbrcompij.so.1.0.4
