From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I got two Brother laser AIOs (MFC1910W) for my folks and myself.
All I had to do on Arch was install
brother-mfc-1910w
for printing,brscan4
for scanning andoh-brother
for (occasionally) upgrading the firmware, all over WiFi.I think more user-friendly distros come with these packages preinstalled, so it should just be a matter of opening the printer manager and waiting for it to show up.
Don't think they make the specific model anymore, but any Brother laser AIO should do.
When I used Ubuntu, I had to install the .debs off of Brother's site by myself. They provide .deb/.rpm packages.
