Hello,
I want to do a fossaPup 64 frugal install.Everything is OK except that I don't know how to install my printer. I downloaded the drivers found there : https://support.brother.com/g/b/downloa ... mfc7460dn_ to ~/Downloads
. I installed the .deb
But they say that the drivers can be installed only with the terminal. But I don't know to do that! The instructions are :
"Step1. Download the tool.(linux-brprinter-installer-*.*.*-*.gz)
The tool will be downloaded into the default "Download" directory.
(The directory location varies depending on your Linux distribution.)
e.g. /home/(LoginName)/Download
Step2. Open a terminal window.
Step3. Go to the directory you downloaded the file to in the last step. By using the cd command.
e.g. cd Downloads
Step4. Enter this command to extract the downloaded file:
Command: gunzip linux-brprinter-installer-*.*.*-*.gz
e.g. gunzip linux-brprinter-installer-2.1.1-1.gz
Step5. Get superuser authorization with the "su" command or "sudo su" command.
Step6. Run the tool:
Command: bash linux-brprinter-installer-*.*.*-* Brother machine name
e.g. bash linux-brprinter-installer-2.1.1-1 MFC-J880DW
Step7. The driver installation will start. Follow the installation screen directions.
When you see the message "Will you specify the DeviceURI ?",
For USB Users: Choose N(No)
For Network Users: Choose Y(Yes) and DeviceURI number.
The install process may take some time. Please wait until it is complete."
So, I tried to do it....
Step 1 and 2 : of course, no problem
Step 3: I wrote ~cd Downloads.
bash: /root/cd: No such file or directory
I tried ~/Downloads/linux-brprinter-installer-2.2.3-1.gz
bash: /root/Downloads/linux-brprinter-installer-2.2.3-1.gz : Permission denied
How can I do?
Thank you for your help
