Description

I encountered the need to be able to print from my new work environment. Luckily, there are drivers in the AUR. To compile and install, run:

mkdir ~/src && cd ~/src
wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/br/brother-lpr-drivers-common/brother-lpr-drivers-common.tar.gz
wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/br/brother-lpr-drivers-laser/brother-lpr-drivers-laser.tar.gz
wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/br/brother-cups-wrapper-laser/brother-cups-wrapper-laser.tar.gz
wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/br/brother-cups-wrapper-common/brother-cups-wrapper-common.tar.gz
tar xzf brother-lpr-drivers-common.tar.gz && tar xzf brother-lpr-drivers-laser.tar.gz && tar xzf brother-cups-wrapper-laser.tar.gz && tar xzf brother-cups-wrapper-common.tar.gz
cd brother-lpr-drivers-common
makepkg -s PKGBUILD
sudo pacman -U brother-lpr-drivers-common*.xz
cd ../brother-lpr-drivers-laser
makepkg -s PKGBUILD
sudo pacman -U brother-lpr-drivers-laser*.xz
cd ../brother-cups-wrapper-common
makepkg -s PKGBUILD
pacman -U brother-cups-wrapper-common*.xz
cd ../brother-cups-wrapper-laser
makepkg -s PKGBUILD
pacman -U brother-cups-wrapper-laser*.xz
