I have followed this setup procedure for Linuxmint 17 (64-bit) with it being Ubuntu based and now have the printer working fine.
But can I get the scanning facility to work? - not a chance - so far. So can someone please help?
I have downloaded and installed from the Brother (UK) website all the relevant packages. The scanner definition is correct and so is the IP addr' but there is no me in the scanner users when I run id. In fact no scanner listed. The output being:
uid=1000(roj) gid=1000(roj) groups=1000(roj),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),108(lpadmin),111(sambashare)
I've looked around other forums without success, but as this forum worked for me with the printer side, then hopefully someone will have the answer to this scanner problem.
Many thanks and regards in advance.
