My brother MFC-J6555DW worked with my fedora out of the box For printing, Scanning with no problem. It also can use over size paper such as 11" x 17" and other features.

I can only attest to one model, but my Brother DCP-L2640DW worked straight out of the box. No installing anything. It magically appeared and worked (both printing and scanning), both Linux (Solus Budgie) and Windows.

Brother has been supporting their printers and scanners on Linux for
years.

D A N G E R :  Brother supplys only packaged for a couple package
managers. If you use Void Linux with the XBPS packaging system, you get
no help from Brother.
