My driver is on the aur but will not be loaded and functional. I really have no idea as to where to make sure it goes. Is my noobness showing. I use a brother dcp-7060D printer. Thanks for any time or help.
I moved to the zen-kernel. you might want to try that out. it’s uber bleeding edge. and might be what you need to get certain drivers working. cheers. p.s. ppl have posted this question and might have an answer here. check it out AUR (en) - brother-dcp7060d
or try this: Change “Duplex={OFF}” to "Duplex={ON} in both /usr/share/brother/Printer/DCP7060D/inf/{brDCP7060Dfunc,brDCP7060Drc}.
Is it possible that your printer is part of foomatic or gutenprint? You may not need the driver from the AUR with those installed.
This is a rather basic question but, do you have the cups package installed?
Not in pure Arch.
