You can download the linux drivers from the Brother web site, I had to do the same for my printer.

John, it is a Brother DCP7065DN, on the hardwired network and visible toall the computers here.
Actually, I just installed Mate (can't stand that Gnome-thing) but neitherit nor Gnome shows any printer config utilities.
Barry, I'll check into lpadmin. Still, I'd think there would be somethingactually visible in one of the menus, and as far as I can see there isn't.

Hi Fred, can you share a little bit more information? For example, are youusing the default Gnome desktop environment? What kind of printer do youhave? How is it connected to C8S (USB, Wi-Fi, Ethernet...?)
I use Gnome, and it's been a long time since I had to poke around withCUPS. My Brother printer (MFC-9340CDW) is pretty old these days, but stillworks after I download and install the "Driver Install Tool" RPM from thebrother.com website...

OK, I give up. How do I configure a printer on Centos 8 Stream? I can'tfind any tools for doing that.
further, there doesn't seem to be a cups executable (which should allowsetting up a printer) though there ARE a bunch of cups packagesinstalled.

Anyone got any clues for me?
Thanks in advance!
