After some trial and error I've got my installation of Puppy Linux to the point of having internet access. I have a Brother printer HL-5340D that I would like to install, But I'm a new chum with Linux. Please detail where I go from here.

After a bit of Googling and looking around the Brother site, I found http://welcome.solutions.brother.com.../en/index.html It shows how to get the drivers for Linux distributions.

Here is the driver table for the HL-5340D. http://welcome.solutions.brother.com....html#HL-5340D

Whichever method of installing is your choice. I don't know the difference between cupswrapper or LPR so I can't help you on that one-- I would choose the cupswrapper one because it's a higher version, though.

For installing the driver, you're on your own since I don't own such a printer but I did manage to find this installation page to help with the cupswrapper install verison. http://welcome.solutions.brother.com...on_prn1c.html#

and if you chose the LPR version
http://welcome.solutions.brother.com...tion_prn3.html

Best of luck,
True
