how to install my drivers

[jarp53]

release : 17.10 ; KDE version 5. 10.5 ; kernel 4.13.0-17 ;the prompt about grub does not give any information; I have Ubuntu and Windows , all systems are in individuals SSD ; my desktop has an Intel 7-2600k ;' my GPU is a Gforce 775 ; and 8 GB ram .
i downloaded the drivers, and have install them several times on Mint, Ubuntu and Deepin ; in here use the "cd" command first and it could not find the file.

maybe i'm not typing the correct command

jr@jr-Z68X-UD3H-B3:~$ sudo apt-get install /home/jr/Downloads/linux-brprinte

Open a konsole. Type: cd Downloands and press Enter.
Then type: linux-brprinter-installer-2.1.1-1\ FMC-5890CN and press Enter.

jr@jr-Z68X-UD3H-B3:~/Downloads$ sudo apt-get install linux-brprinter-installer-2.1.1-1\ FMC-5890CN

That command assumes that "linux=brprinter-install ..." is in the repository. The result for the command tells you that it is not.

And, that isn't what Snowhog told you to do.

Is "install linux-brprinter-installer-2.1.1-1\ FMC-5890CN" an *.sh script or a *.deb package? Or, does it end in .zip?

instead of "ls" show us an "ls -la" on that
