SIDE UPDATE: I got it working, BUT with a Beelink mini PC with Ubuntu server installed. Brother HL-L2300D <- USB -> Beelink Ubuntu Server <-> Cups I loosely followed this tutorial: https://www.linuxbabe.com/ubuntu/set-up-cups-print-server-ubuntu-bonjour-ipp-samba-airprint But basically I...

Found an even easier solution by following this YouTube guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ey4u7OUAF3c

Ok gonna be documenting what I'm doing for those who is googling this. This might be the simplest up and running (and probably not "safe"?) solution so far: 1. Give your Ubuntu server a Static IP address on your router. Here I gave it 192.168.50.7 (LAN -> DHCP Server -> Manually assign) 2...

Thanks to both of you, I will definitely look at the youtube videos and apply what is being said here. I didn't even know how to google for the answers I was looking for. Much appreciated

After posting I think I just really need to learn more about networking from the ground up. My apologies I guess deliberating on it, this is too big of an ask for this forum considering it's specialized in one piece of software. Want to learn networking and read up on it more so I don't sound...

Honestly in over my head on that one too but I’m planning to revisit it. At least with my ubuntu server as the host for cups server

Hi SNBforums, I've been getting into home server and honestly I'm in over my head. I'm such a noob to this - there's so many things I don't know, especially about networking so it's kind of in the deep in and scrounging around tutorials. I'm trying to point my NameCheap domain (lets say...

So I've hit another knowledge gap. Presented by the CUPS screen, I have no clue how to configure my Brother HL-L2300D for it. I know it's connected to the router and it's under the "lp0" in usb devices, other than that I don't know how to get its IP address or whatever to add it to CUPS.

Ok so I did somehow miraculously get CUPS to run its server on localhost:631 I can confirm this because inside the router ssh I did wget localhost:631 and it downloaded index.html which has CUPS contents in it. However, on my PC browser it doesn't allow me to connect to 192.168.50.1:631 citing...

That github tutorial seems very promising however I ran into a snag, my Entware architecture doesn't seem to match any of the ones in this tutorial

The Brother HL-L2300D is wired only, so basically I have to figure out a way to do this: Brother <-> ASUS AX86U (Printer Server) <-> PC/iOS/Mac

Oh I do have the EZPrint thing working, but my family is half iOS/Mac and half Windows. I would love to enable AirPrint so I can print from every device including mobile.

Hi all I have an old Brother LH-2300D and I'm looking to run an AirPrint server on my Merlin flashed AX86u Here's my amateur attempt so far: I've done a lot of googling and I've installed Entware on a USB Drive and all and installed CUPS, ran cupsd but I went to 192.168.50.1:631 on my computer...
