Brother MFC-L2700DW Print driver

Welcome to the forum. Thanks for giving EndeavourOS a try.

How did you try to install the print driver? Here is how it should be done. If you don’t have yay installed, install yay
$ sudo pacman -S yay
Then as user, install the printer driver from the AUR
$ sudo pacman -S lib32-glic to install a dependency
$ yay -S brother-mfc-l2700dw

Printer driver should be installed.
You may need to do the following: if these are already done, reissuing the commands is safe
$ sudo pacman -S cups cups-pdf
$ sudo systemctl enable org.cups.cupsd.service
$ sudo systemctl start org.cups.cupsd.service

In FIrefox or other browser, enter the URL of localhost:631
This should bring up the cups page
Install your printer. I don’t know your Linux skill level, if you have never done this before, come back for help. The yay installed driver should appear as
Brother MFC-L2700DW for CUPS (en)

If this printer is on a LAN network, do the following to enable the scanner
$ pacman -Q sane ( to see if sane is installed. If not install it)
$ yay brscan4
$ sudo brsaneconfig4 -a name=“Brother” model=“MFC-L2700DW” ip=“your printer’s IP”

Done
