I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

    The driver support for Linux is just awful. I couldn’t get the Brother 7055W to work on Arch. It worked on Fedora though, but I don’t have that anymore.

      I gave up also. The entire software experience is just shit and buggy as hell. Avoid.

      I’ve had two Brother laser printers now, in both cases drivers were packaged as either .deb or .rpm.

      I’m currently running a Brother HL-L2395DW mono multifunction laser printer under KDE Neon, and both the scanner and printer work perfectly over the network.
