Printer driver for Brother MFC 7820N and HP Laserjet 1100


I'm running Linux Mint 16.x and 17. Would love to find printer driver(s) for HP Laserjet 1100 and MFC Brother 7820N.

My desktop has 4 GB ram and a GForce 9300 (game?) motherboard. As well would love to find driver for Canon Pi.ma MX 870. KAny pioneers out there with such info?

Hi...

Welcome to the forum

As one of rokytnji's links has indicated, your HP printer is also supported by HPLIP using Mint 16. Just click on the black "Download HPLIP" button to begin the installation process. You might also want to install the "hplip-gui" package from the repositories (using a package manager.)

If you have HPLIP installed already, make sure it's the minimum version required listed on the page I linked to. If not, uninstall the version you have and install the version the page I linked to.

The driver for your Brother printer can be found here.

Also, from what I understand, Ubuntu should already have a driver for your Canon printer but if not, a guide for installing your Canon printer can be found here.

Let us know how it goes.

Regards...
