I've (perhaps unwisely, it seems) just bought a Brother HL-L2340DW printer and I'm struggling to get it working with Ubuntu.
I need to get it working wirelessly, but I can connect it by USB in order to get it working if necessary.
So far I've managed to get the printer's IP address set and I can browse to it from a web browser, but I haven't managed to get it working as a CUPS printer.
There is no built-in printer driver for this printer in Ubuntu. I tried a Linux CUPS driver from Brother website - the instructions mismatch severely but I sort of guessed my way through the mismatching bits. At the end of it all there are no errors as such, and I can search for network printers, find it and install it, but when I print, the job disappears from the queue without printing or telling me anything went wrong.
To be clear, it's not so much that I'm having problems which I need help to resolve - the issue is that I just don't know how to do this. My first hope is that someone may be able to advise how to do this - and I could then reply with any problems. If that's not possible, it'll come down to debugging it but I just don't know where to start.
Any help much appreciated!
Thanks, Mark
