Got a Brother DSmobile 620 scanner?

Got Fedora Linux?

Want to get the two to work together?

Go to brother's website.

https://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadtop.aspx?c=us&lang=en&prod=ds620_all

Download the RPM and install it the way the website indicates.

`rpm -ihv --nodeps `

Note that when you do:

`scanimage -L`

as your regular user you don't see the scanner, but if you do:

`sudo scanimage -L`

You'll see the scanner.

This is the udev rules not giving it to a group that your normal user belongs to.

Edit the file /dev/udev/rules.d/50-Brother_DSScanner.rules and change the users to one you belong to.

Profit!

I no idea why I posted this outside of, in case someone is wanted to know how to do this. And that, Brother's DSmobile 620 scanner works pretty well with Fedora Linux. ยท 3 months ago
