You don't mention what model you have.  I have the MFC3820CN.  I haven't spent a lot of time trying to get all the functions to work. I just needed it to be able to print from my DSL box.  I found a lot of help at these sites:

http://russnelson.com/Brother-MFC-3820CN.html

http://solutions.brother.com/linux/sol/printer/linux/lpr_drivers.html

I haven't tried to get the faxing and scanning to work. If you manage it then please post a "how to".

Good luck

ps.... remember this....  DSL does not have the print server turned on at start up.  Go into the DSL control panel and turn it on when you want print.

The DSL Forum Search default is 'OR'
If you search for "cat dog" you will get all "cat" posts and all "dog" posts.
If you search for "cat AND dog" you will only find results that contain BOTH "cat" and "dog"
Add '*' for wildcards, " cat* and dog* "
