I am having difficulty getting this device to work on Zorin 7.

USB connection Printer. Brother. The OS sees the device, when a file is sent to print the printer says "Receiving Data" but that's all, it doesn't print.

Has anyone any idea what I might be doing wrong?

TIA,

Alex

Well it was my first post!

OK, It's Zorin 7 32 bit. I'll email that link over to the chap with the computer, he's 87 . . . so when I pop round to see him, I can take a look at it for him.

Thanks in advance.
