Hello

I have just installed the Brother mfc1910w Printer Scanner on Antix linux but this should work for other Debian based distros.
Compared to a simple "apt install xxx" this was much more difficult.

Here's what did it for me, hope this might be helpful:



=== on the mfc1910w use the menu keys to set an ip-address to fit your LAN.

5.gunzip linux-brprinter-installer-2.2.3-1.gz

The driver installation will start. Follow the installation screen directions.
*When you see the message "Will you specify the DeviceURI ?",

The install process may take some time. Please wait until it is complete.
