Tiny Core Base > CorePlus

Love Core plus but no drivers for either of my printers

(1/1)

jbander:
No drivers and can't quite figure out how to install printers. Would I be able to find printer drivers better with the tiny core debian program

Juanito:
Maybe you could start by supplying the make and model of your printers?

Usually a combination of the cups and hplip extensions covers most printers, but depending on your setup, you might only need the libcups extension.

jbander:
Thanks for the response, Brothers mfc j430w and epsen stylus photo r340 any ideas would be appreciated/

Juanito:
The brother support site offers linux driver downloads for the mfc-j430w in deb or rpm format - I would presume these work with cups, but you'll need to download them and take a look to be sure.

The epson support site states that they do not support linux, but they do offer a generic linux printer driver available in tar.gz format, which you'd need to compile. Again I would guess this works with cups, but you'd have to download it and check.
