Maybe I am a bit late to the party, but brother printers have a very simple but not too intuitive installation procedure.
You need the brother printer install script rpm to add a brother printer
First go to the brother support sit: Others | Brother support website
Then find your printer
For me it is the DCP-J132W
Find in Utilities the driver install tool and download it.
The tool will install LPR, CUPSwrapper driver and scanner driver (for scanner models).
Agree with the EULA and download the tool. It is in tar.gz format
In the next page it will say how to use the tool:
#How to Install
Step1. Download the tool.(linux-brprinter-installer-*.*.*-*.gz)
The tool will be downloaded into the default "Download" directory.
(The directory location varies depending on your Linux distribution.)
e.g. /home/(LoginName)/Download
Step2. Open a terminal window.
Step3. Go to the directory you downloaded the file to in the last step. By using the cd command.
e.g. cd Downloads
Step4. Enter this command to extract the downloaded file:
**Command: gunzip linux-brprinter-installer-*.*.*-*.gz**
e.g. gunzip linux-brprinter-installer-2.1.1-1.gz
Step5. Get superuser authorization with the " **su** " command or " **sudo su** " command.
Step6. Run the tool:
**Command: bash linux-brprinter-installer-*.*.*-* Brother machine name**
e.g. bash linux-brprinter-installer-2.1.1-1 MFC-J880DW
Step7. The driver installation will start. Follow the installation screen directions.
When you see the message “Will you specify the DeviceURI ?”,
For USB Users: Choose N(No)
For Network Users: Choose Y(Yes) and DeviceURI number.
The install process may take some time. Please wait until it is complete.
