Brother has prepared a CUPS driver (For BR-Script Models Users) and a CUPS wrapper driver (For Non-BR-Script Models Users) package. The CUPS driver automatically copies the relevant driver files to your Linux distribution, and the CUPS wrapper driver makes LPR drivers work with CUPS.

These drivers are designed to work using the CUPS printing systems. Select the relevant model to download the appropriate file and then follow the installation instructions.
