    USB Printing stopped with Merlin 386.1 on RT-AC86U

    I have a HP printer connected with USB to a RT-AC86U. The printer needs to be initialized with firmware, which I used to be able to do with Merlin 384.xx via: cat /jffs/hp1018_firmware.dl > /dev/usb/lp0 After this, printing works just fine. However, with 386.1, while the script runs, the...

    Brother printer not recognized

    I've tried two Brother printers, HL-2275DW and MFC-J450DW, via Ethernet and USB. The RT-AX58U sees what's connected to the USB but I can't print to it. I assigned an IP to the Mac address of the HL-2275DW - still no joy. Do I need the Merlin firmware to fix this?
