SUCCESS for Brother printers on RasPi 4 and 3.

 

Finally, I learned and applied a simple fix for those of us who need a Brother linux driver for the printer:

sudo apt-get install printer-driver-brlaser

I didn't have to do anything and the package updates the .PPD files.? I ran a test page using the text editor, and successfully printed a page from the Internet!? Many thanks to Cornelius for his encouragement and support!!!
 

Means there might be a boatload of printer drivers in APT? Good to know.
Have not used a printer in like forever, but sometimes it's inevitable.
One step closer to Windows' demise around here.
