Brother printers are good but they dont keep up with their drivers. I had a customer with dozens of them but they wouldn't talk to the terminal server. I worked with Brother support over the phone and their level 3 support guy said it wouldn't work. The customer had to purchase all new HP printers which worked like a charm. To be fair, this was a few years back.
