Hello,
This guide is for the installation for the drivers of the printer Brother HL2150 N.

The automatic driver search of Linux mint does not find and list the driver.

#1: Visit http://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadlist.aspx?c=gb&lang=en&prod=hl2150n_all&os=128
select OS Linux (deb) language: English
#2: click on [Driver Install tool]
#3: Agree on the [EULA and download]
#4: unpack the download.
#5: run the command $ bash linux-brprinter-installer-...
in the file directory of the unpacked file.
The driver does need you to accept third party EULA. After a successful installation the driver is not shown as a proprietary driver interface in linux mint.

Tested on:
 Kernel: 4.4.0-62-generic x86_64 (64 bit) Desktop: MATE 1.16.1  Distro: Linux Mint 18.1 Serena
