Adding Brother Drivers #51

Closed pcwii closed 3 years ago

pcwii commented 3 years ago

Any chance you could add the drivers for Brother Printers? eg. https://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadlist.aspx?c=ca&lang=en&prod=hll2320d_us_as&os=128

If they're distributed as Debian packages, on the official package registry, no.

Sorry about that but don't want to start adding every snowflake proprietary driver in the image. I'm not even sure that it would be ok from a legal standpoint as most of the time you also have to accept some EULA to install the driver.

Can you check if they're available in the registry? If they are, can you provide me with the package name(s)? I'll be happy to add them in the image!

@pcwii ?

pcwii commented 3 years ago

@olbat sorry, have not had a chance to look into this. Not entirely sure what to look for. To confirm your request. All I am certain of is that there is a debian package on the Brother website, and yes it does require an EULA to download.

olbat commented 3 years ago

If there is an EULA to accept, it will not be possible to distribute them with the image (I cannot accept the EULA on behalf of the users of the image).

@pcwii, any news?

No news, closing the issue.
