Hello all, I have set a box for a friend running Kubuntu 16.04 with a brother MF7680DW multifunction printer/scanner attached via usb. I have installed the latest drivers from the Brother website and the printer works fine but the scanner is not found by any scanning program. Research indicates that there is a permissions issue error. The solution is to run |sudo chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/001/002 |which fixes the usb bus permissions problem and the scanner is found. Am I able to place this command somewhere so that it is executed on startup? How do I overcome the issue of needing root access? Thanks Bob
