Just a quick shot: please do a clean install of a networked scanner, either on another machine or remove the former installation from the notebook. This may (or may not) be the culprit. Is this the only brother scanner you use?

no, from one notebook

Are you doing this from different machines?

@harvey thank you for this quick respond :) unfortunately this is not the reason because i set this bevor and brsaneconfig4 -d can ping the scanner.

scanimage -L
device `brother4:net1;dev0' is a Brother scanner DCP-L2510D

Please, please, read and follow the post installation notes that are displayed after installation: For a network installation run the following as root: brsaneconfig4 -a name="Brother" model="YOURMODELHERE" ip=YOUR.SCANNER.IP.HERE

hi there :)

it works with usb cabel, but i can't scan via network the scanner where found:

tom@donar ~ # scanimage -L
device `brother4:net1;dev0' is a Brother scanner DCP-L2510D

but it wont scan

tom@donar ~ # scanimage --format=tiff --output-file test.tiff --progress
scanimage: open of device brother4:net1;dev0 failed: Invalid argument

i searched the web for a solution, but i wasn't able to found one :(

Harvey commented on 2024-01-15 13:47 (UTC)

I'd say no, because of different CPU architecture. Maybe someone else has more insight.

Thank you very much. Works on dcp-1610w. Is there any way I can make this driver work on a raspberry pi?

beschu commented on 2023-11-05 21:23 (UTC)

Works fine with Brother DCP-7055W connected through Wi-Fi. Thank you!
