Brother MFC 9970CDW install

Greetings,
Thanks in advance to all involved with Zorin! I recently dumped MS and am working thru getting the items installed that I use.
The Forum posted on using gdebi (March 2023) was followed for my printer listed above. all the processes completed without errors, however, no printers listed in settings/printers?
Help! thanks, Ron

Hi and welcome.

Is this a networked printer?

It's nesrly meal time here.

I will create a video for you later on.

Thank you, yes, wifi home network. Enjoy goodies

OK, having had my goodies (scrambled egg, 2 vegetarian sausages and baked beans - and a slice of bread to mop up the leftover tomato sauce on the plate) I am currently rendering the video for upload to my vimeo account.

I too had some issues with this and state as much on the title clip created. I think the issue is with the fact that there is no 64-bit driver for this particular printer, so it needs to be installed using the cupswrapper; which I cover in the video.

Enjoy! (will post the link once I have uploaded it and Vimeo has done it's magic of making it high res.

And as with a forum member I helped install their Brother Printer remotely, I did not use Brother's Printer tool either!

(Oops! I am having problems with my keyboard, or more precisely, P.I.C.N.I.C.! Spotted typo in Title Clip so re-rendering! Please be patient!)
