I was amazed to find that Brother is releasing GPL drivers for many of
their printers, as well.  I recently bought an MFC 210C for less than $50
at Office Max after seeing at www.linuxprinting.org that it works
"perfectly".  The drivers are packaged in rpm or deb, but after some
fiddling, they do indeed work perfectly.
