Michael,
Are you saying that you were able to print to your brother printers by
more or less following these steps:
1. buy a computer, install gentoo
2. buy a brother printer, plug it into computer via usb
3. emerge net-print/cups and net-print/foomatic-filters
4. Visit the local cups webpage, add new printer, select "brother"
5. print
Notably missing from my list is a visit to brother's website (or any
other website) to download drivers/binaries/confs/etc.
Thank you,
Chris
