If you encounter "ERROR NAME; typecheck COMMAND; image" when trying to print a pdf file: make sure you actually use brother-brgenml1 as the driver

@swearchnick oh, multilib was the problem. Thank you very much. The driver works great.

swearchnick commented on 2017-11-25 08:17 (UTC)

@petrbel: Cannot reproduce, do you have multilib repo enabled? Also try with no aur helper (plain makepkg).

Hi, I'm having troubles with installation. $ pacaur -S brother-brgenml1 :: Package brother-brgenml1 not found in repositories, trying AUR... :: resolving dependencies... :: no results found for lib32-glibc (dependency tree: brother-brgenml1 lib32-glibc) Seems like lib32-glibc is no longer installable. Could you please help me installing the package? Thanks.

@timofonic: If you look on brothers site for drivers for your printer what drivers are listed? The reason for me to create this package was that the specific (non-generic) driver for my printer was buggy (problem with two-sided printing etc) and was replaced by brother with this more "generic" and has worked without issues since. So if brother lists this driver for your model then you should use "brother-brgenml1".

timofonic commented on 2017-09-22 02:00 (UTC)

What's better to install? Custom (brother-mfc-l2700dw) or generic (brother-brgenml1)? I'm confused See this example... Comparison to aid in creating a PKGBUILD for the Brother HLL6250DW printer driver https://gist.github.com/miotatsu/6cf221bcdf047bf6b0c3a514b32ae6a6
