Those udev rules were not my idea in first place. I added a suggestion from another user for whom it did not work without. I don't use my MFC's USB connection, it is on my network so I am not able to test this here. Would be interesting if anybody else is seeing this 'either printer or scanner does not work' problem.

@Harey: that didn't help, but I simply resolved eliminating from the PKGBUILD the mk-udev-rules script: now i don't have any brscan4.rules in /etc/udev/rules.d, but both scanner and printer are working. Are you sure those rules are correct? Let me know if you need any information about my system.

No, not a clue. Adding your user to both groups does not help?

I have a problem with this package: I installed it and my DCP-7055 scanner works very smoothly, but the printer stops working and CUPS says "waiting for the printer to become available". I read a blog post about this problem and setting a udev rule that change the group of /dev/bus/usb/001/002 from scanner to lp. This solves the printing problem, but the scanner stops working. So apparently I have to choose between scanning and printing. Any hint?

Ooops, my bad. I had checked the wrong site. Update to 0.4.3_0.

@rdoursenaud: Why did you flag this as 'out-of-date'? The download source still seems to be valid. Do you have another later source? If so, please elaborate. Thank you.

IIRC I only changed the mkudev rules line to incorporate Brsane4.ini. I am currently on a trip without access to my home machine and will come back later with more info if there were more changes than I remember now.

I think the last update broke functionality for my MFC-7460DN. Xsane reports an error during device I/O. Care to post the last PKGBUILD so I can test the differences? Thanks.
