To post number 1?

Did you try his patch?

If it is a different problem than that what was described and solved on
post number one, please create a new thread.

jcdole created a related Bugzilla 873979 on 2014-04-16. It was closed as
duplicate of Bug 859353, reported on 2014-01-18.

In the later, there is an attachment, created 3 days ago, that is said
to solve the issue.

Yes, it is the same error as the first post. At least, I had error messages related to ‘xinetd’ service. No, I do not trust myself to apply the patch.
In fact, I have apparently solved the problem for myself at least, by following carefully the instructions given by Brother for the installation of their drivers. It now works, but do not ask me why!

Running a HP G95(net) I always used the excellent hplip interface. Running a Brother MFC-7360N(net) I have installed the drivers from Brother’s homepage and then run some lines in the Konsole:

#Add network scanner entry 
$ brsaneconfig4 -a name=SCANNER model=MFC-7360N ip=192.168.0.12
$
#Confirm network scanner entry 
$ brsaneconfig4 -q | grep SCANNER
   0 SCANNER             "MFC-7360N"         I:192.168.0.12
$

So I have never tried Yast2 for setup. Thank you HW manufactures and the community of Linux that HW support is growing for every day :).
