How to setup CUPS on ReadyNAS 214, so I can remote print to Brother Printer
I'm looking for the CUPS app that will let me use my Brother printer when I'm away from home. I never use my Desktop.. so I'm hoping to leave it & my laptop OFF and just have the printer wired to t...
What download did you find and why wouldn't it work with the 214?
You mean the addons provided by SuperPoussin in his dropbox?
Yes.. I treid his... and I found 2 or 3 other apps ( so called print servers ) but they was for the Duo.
When I chatted with a Netgear tech he only 2 ( air print & the x64 CUPS)
HOWEVER, He knews (he's heard of) something out there working on the 104's & 212's.
The major problem with setting up a remote printer on the RN214 most likely will be finding matching drivers for your printer on the ARM CPU platform. Brother only provides a driver suite for the Intel x86 platform and doesn't make the source code available. That's in line with what most major printer/scanner vendors do, unfortunately.
