brother HL-3170CDW print drivers

Post by kissellj » 2016/07/27 03:09:30

I've used the following printer driver for a brother HL-3170CDW installed on a new install of CentOS7 x86_64. I've downloaded the drivers from the brother website. I did not get any errors on the install. It doesn't print or wake the printer. I get a message saying it sent the document to the printer. I used these same drivers on CentOS6 and the printer worked well. Any help troubleshooting this would be greatly appreciated.
