Okay, assuming that you have nmap installed (you may need to run as root) do
Code:
nmap -sP 192.168.1.1-255 |
Quote:
Code:
~ $ nmap -sP 192.168.1.1-255 |
I see from your network report that your printer is using the DHCP-assigned address 192.168.1.108
Code:
brsaneconfig4 -a name=brother model=MFC-J430W ip=192.168.1.108 You could also try the nodename reported I guess... Code:
brsaneconfig4 -a name=brother model=MFC-J430W nodename=BRNA417314C54E3 Code:
brsaneconfig4 -r brother |

Code:
~ $ brsaneconfig4 -r brother I tried scanning, still not working. It must have seen the config, as the scanner is listed as "Brother brother". Then I tried: Code:
~ $ brsaneconfig4 -r brother So for my Brother scanner it's down to specifying an ip address. As you say, I need to save the details, in case the ip address get changed by the router in the future. Thanks for all the help ferrari, it's much appreciated. You definitely persisted with this one. |
Glad to have been of help.

If you get the time let us know if the following also works (don't know if this was tried already)
Code:
brsaneconfig4 -r brother Code:
brsaneconfig4 -a name=brother model=MFC-J430W nodename=dhcppc0 |

Okay, thanks. At least you have it working with the hard-coded IP address.
