Thanks for the reply, it’s not clear to me though. What printer model do you own?
Looking at the DCP-110C example, the deb provides some script, a 32 bits library and a 32 bits binary ‘brprintconfij2’. Nothing in the deb reference to that binary though, the cups stack doesn’t know about that name either.
I’m unsure how/by what those are being used, do you have any idea?
If I understand correctly, your printer doesn’t work out of the box on Ubuntu today? How does it fail?
To get it working you need to enable the i386 arch and install the Brother provided .deb then things start working?
Do you have an idea if that’s the script provided by the deb it needs or something else? (like if you try to delete the binaries, does it keep working)?
Thanks for helping understanding the situation!
