Brother DCP 135C

Anyone know how I can install this printer/scanner/copier on my Arch Linux? Browsing the intenet doesn't come up with much and it seems likely that it's not possible right now to install on any Linux distro.

I hoped maybe someone around here might know?

Well it definitely can be done, it's just a matter of patience..

I suggest you search the wiki for Brother..   Or even better check out the wiki I just wrote for the Brother MFC-420CN, as it will help you on your way.  Just substitute the files to download and the filenames use in the commands to match your printer.

I'm happily using my Brother Printer/Scanner in Arch now

Good Luck!

Excellent :] I'll give it a go once I've caught up on all my college stuff.

Thanks, Zer0
