Brother scanner not working in Ubuntu 18.04 though driver installed
I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 and a brother DCP-375CW, a printer and scanner all in one. I downloaded the drivers and used the Driver Install Tool by brother.
This is the result: the system says the drivers are installed. The printer is actually working. But Simple Scan claims that the drivers are still missing.
I used the method to install the scanner like in 16.04 (see here Brother scanner not working in Ubuntu 16.04 though driver installed)
I ran the Brother Driver Install Script and made the necessary rights changes in
/lib/udev/rules.d/60-libsane1.rules
This does not seem to work in 18.04 anymore.
Maybe the Installer Script installs the Drivers in the wrong folder for 18.04?
