I keep reading good things said about Brother scanners/all-in-ones.
Reading
into details, it's always one of two things. It also involves a
driver
download, like hplip's modus operandi, and it's not really an out of
the box
solution.
As I already pointed out, my Brother unit did not require a driver
download. One is available, but I don't use it.
Alternatively, the alleged printer model is nowhere to be found in
xsane's hardware database. So, it's basically pot luck: buy it, and
hope that it works.
As I haven't tested every model of Brother all-in-one I can't guarantee
that they all work, but I'd be surprised is they didn't. This is the
way all such devices will be expected to work in the near future.
