Printer help needed

Issues & Assistance
1

Hi everyone,

I’m having issues getting my printer up and running and need a better eye than mine to look at this with me. I’m using a Brother HL-2300D connected via USB. I’ve gotten it to “print” a test page which ends up being a blank page. I’ve tested multiple options in the print settings and nothing is working. Any help on what to try next would be greatly appreciated.

Solved: not an easy one, had to use a driver set from AUR called brlaser v6 while i’m not really good at using AUR a few tutorials on YouTube helped me make and build the package.

Leaving this here in case it helps anyone in the future.

Did you install the driver from aur?

lol, we must have been typing at the same time. Yeah, that’s what i eventually found. I’m not sure about using YAY i did it the hard way i guess. i need to learn how YAY works later but for now i have work to do to get back on schedule (bleh, i hate MUST DO lists).

Have a great day, and thanks for the reply.
