  • It’s a Brother B&W laser with integrated scanner. About 6 years old, so it should be fully supported. We can’t view toner levels or scan from the printer (press a button on the printer to start a scan and have it automatically accepted by the computer. I have installed the separate driver for this functionality, but it isn’t working).

    We haven’t yet tried some features like double-sided printing.


  • I installed Mint on my wife’s computer last week, and we have had problems getting the printer to print, and then to scan. I’ve installed the manufacturer’s driver a couple of times and it seems to do those functions okay, but some features still don’t work.






  • It’s even better than that. In WordPress, you can select a plug-in from within your WordPress administration, and install it directly. You receive update notifications by email, and can upgrade within the administration panel as well. You don’t have to download and then upload anything.

    In both Drupal and WordPress, you can upgrade the site and plugins/modules from CPanel.


  • I find Drupal just as easy to set up as wordpress. Most shared web hosts have a script to do everything for you, including installing updates. In fact, I find Drupal’s administration more logical and easier to manage. (I may be biased, since I spent 10 years developing Drupal sites.)

    The other advantage is that, unlike WordPress, Drupal themes and plugins (the Drupal term is “modules”) are almost all open source and free. I find that WordPress has lots of plugins that give you the basic version for free, but then want to upsell you to a paid version.
