For various (and less than satisfactory) values of "WORK". The Brother
implementation is a total hack. They clearly lack any understanding of
filesystem standards and general operation of real-world Linux systems.
Additionally, my next printer purchase will preclude vendors which give
me difficult to follow, half-baked recipes to making their printer work
and any new printer will be chosen from a vendor that officially
supports the open printing standards.
Once this printer I have stops working, I am soooooo done with Brother.
I just wish I'd have taken it back while I had the chance instead of
wasting a piece of my life I will never get back on it.
