Asking strangers on the internet to access your system is a good way to get pwned.

You might instead tell us what you've tried that failed.

Problem Solved. Don't ask me How, but it works. This is the first time I have used Makulu for more than a week. On other versions of Linux I could not set up my printer, but on Makulu it was easy.

Glad you have it working. Being a Debian based distro, you shouldn't have had any problems. Brother supply drivers for it!
