drivers - Brother MFC-J430W printer receiving data, but not printing anything - Ask Ubuntu
i'm using ubuntu 16.04, , i'm trying brother mfc-j430w printer work. downloaded , installed driver install tool brother's website. unzipped , followed instructions on instructions page with
sudo bash linux-brprinter-installer-2.0.0-1 mfc-j430w
it worked, , computer sees printer. when try print, can see on printer's screen says "receiving data" stops , goes default screen. when go ubuntu's printer menu , click "show completed jobs" shows i've tried print.
brother's install page says should expect prompt says
will specify deviceuri ?
but instead got list of 16 choices , prompt said
select number of destination device uri.
and chose 16, like
usb://brother/mfc-j430w?serial=brod3f970004
i ended getting work removing whitespace path leading file, example:
/media/user/data/downloads/favorite folder/look @ spaces/linux-brprinter-installer-2.0.0-1
became
/media/user/data/downloads/favoritefolder/lookatthespaces/linux-brprinter-installer-2.0.0-1
and following installation instructions
