the "CUPSwrapper printer driver (rpm package)" has a ppd file in it (correct ppd)
(mfcj435wcupswrapper-3.0.0-1.i386.rpm)
Probably the deb has too
open with your archive tool, copy manually

wdt

Yu may not realize,, if you open a ppd file in an editor,,
it will say what printer it is for on the 1st page

>I have been using "Generic-PDF_Printer-PDF.ppd" and "textonly.ppd" as my ppd files, downloaded from the Brother site. >The printer works fine wirelessly with my PC while connected to Raspi via USB. This tells me that the ppd files are the problem when printing wirelessly it uses...

A GPT disk has a backup partition table at the end of the disk,,
17 sectors perhaps
So use dd and skip (after a bit of calculation)

sorry, not skip,, seek (skip is for input files)

wdt

Nice that you bother to say
I suggest that you try to see if it will work with a usb cable,
also try to ping it

If dmesg dosn't show it,, then the kernel dosn't know about it,,, that is why it dosn't show in CUPS (dmesg is the kernel message ring buffer) A bad usb cable??? Does it work under windows?? maybe the usb chip (in the printer) is blown Again,, unplug, replug (to put it at end of dmesg),,, dmesg | ta...

wdt

Does the printer show up with dmesg?
ie, unplug.replug,,,dmesg | tail
or lsusb

I am guessing that there is a printer when you click the printer tab at top The printer has to be talking to the right port, or nothing happens So lpd://..... is probably wrong,,, it should be usb:// ..... or a network address,,, socket://<address> I have also seen a usb printer address be ,, socket...

wdt

In CUPS, when you click printers
does it say paused - paused or
paused - unplugged?
For the first,,Click the printer, then
click maintence, resume printer

A deb or rpm is an archive Do NOT try to install it,it will not work because these debs are for x86 Open it with an archive tool,just like it was a zip Not the scanner deb,probably not the lpd deb, open the filter deb for me, this is a 4 year old memory, there should be a setup.sh or install.sh (lar...

I think of it as a learning opportunity I am not so good at "hand holding" That is why I offered the simplest solution 1st My 625.ppd is almost 29K, so any script of large size probably has the ppd inside it (I am always curious what large scripts have in them) nano is not so good for mark...

wdt

You were given incorrect information,, unless they were referring to scanner, fax If you would have searched, I have already written about this simplest is to find what HP inkjet your printer most closely emulates OR download deb or rpm, open, extract setup (or install) script (DO NOT try to INSTALL...

>assuming the SoCs *can* address more than that amount of physical memory.).

32 bit address lines, Some other problem that makes max 3 gB
I bought for better io. 2 usb (controllers) and eth not usb bridged

I don't know if you have dd on your mac,
be VERY careful that you are pointing it at the right place,,
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/something count=200,,
blanks first 200 sectors,, then use mac disk utility again

>There are Linux CUPS drivers available for download from the Brother website for your printer model, but they most likely contain binary executables that only run on x86 architecture. Brother is fairly good for x86 linux drivers, but only from them, not in CUPS install What you need, and the ONLY t...

>well, I calculate 4*900 MHz for the piB2 vs. 2GHz for my notebook (?) arm cpu vrs atom? P3? celeron? from a 17 2core to rpi2 is 50x But you are mem and io constrained, the usb2 is 2-3 slower than rotating disk, 20x SSD And only 1G mem, in the real world you would have 32 G, a ramdisk big enough for...

Err, dd has a count parameter, if is a reasonably fresh fs you could set up bs and count to only copy 10% empty space The fs does tend to write from beginning to end, That is a 40% full fs will all be in the first 1/2 of the drive I suppose you could check with a hexeditor, I wouldn't bother myself ...

It's nice that you finally told us enough to say something intelegant 5000 hrs is more than 200 days, you must not be in a hurry I doubt the rpi is as powerful as your netbook, more likely 1/2 I should think you would be better off tuning the software and geting a desktop, (with lots of memory), unl...

Well SD cards have emulated cylinders, heads , sectors,, but most everything nowdays use LBA INT 13!! that is real mode access, from the bios. Once you are past Win3.1 there is no int13 There are IFS,, installable file systems for NT, be carefull using them, win is not that reliable wrinting ext2, m...

Is arm gdisk so deficient?? x86 gdisk can convert in place,, IF,,if there is 17K free at end of disk, for the backup partition table So you may have to run gparted first Still faster than a long rsync My question,, does it understand LABEL,, ie root=LABEL="something" Personally I am addict...
